Definition of lutetium in English:
The chemical element of atomic number 71, a rare silvery-white metal of the lanthanide series. (Symbol: Lu)
Example sentences
- The gadolinium and lutetium exceptions result in a marked increase in radius compared to the slight decrease in metal atom radius for the other elements.
- This finding provides support for the ongoing development of more solubilized versions of lutetium texaphyrin as photosensitizers for use in the diagnosis and PDT of cancerous disease.
- Because lutetium is so expensive (currently, about $75 a gram), it has almost no commercial use.
Early 20th century: from French lutécium, from Latin Lutetia, the ancient name of Paris, the home of its discoverer.

LOUISA, Va. (AP) - A suspended Roman Catholic priest who
embezzled $432,000 from two rural parishes in Virginia has been
sentenced to 13 years in prison.
The Rev. Rodney Rodis will serve the state prison term after completing a five-year federal sentence.
At his state trial, Rodis said he stole the money to help his family and others in his native Philippines. But prosecutor Thomas Garrett said Rodis also invested in real estate.
The priest also supported a wife and three children whom he concealed from his parishioners.
Authorities said Rodis set up bank accounts and a post office box where he directed parishioners to send contributions. He then transferred the money to his personal account.

2008 Let's Talk Bailout Plans
posted by September 24 at 14:00 PMon
First: What in the fuck is the McCain campaign thinking? No good can come from adding political instability on top of the financial crisis. The election should go as absolute clockwork, with every step happening on time and as planned. I'm getting more and more concerned about the health of the US Treasury's financial reputation if stunts like this continue.
But McCain wants to take a break to think about how to handle the financial crisis? Fine.
The more I read about this bailout fiasco, the more I dislike it. (For now, support Dodd and the congressional democrats, who are at least trying to protect your financial interests as a taxpayer.)
Much has been made of the Sweden model.
Sweden did not just bail out its financial institutions by having the government take over the bad debts. It extracted pounds of flesh from bank shareholders before writing checks. Banks had to write down losses and issue warrants to the government.
That strategy held banks responsible and turned the government into an owner. When distressed assets were sold, the profits flowed to taxpayers, and the government was able to recoup more money later by selling its shares in the companies as well.
The AIG "bailout" was in this vein—and the Dodd plan asks for more of the same.
I think we should grab the regulatory meat cleaver and forcibly recreate the regulations of the Glass-Steagal act—separating by regulatory force (the dispensable) investment banks from the (essential for the economy) commercial and retail banks. Right now. Investment banks are, in my mind, useless drags on our real economy. Why should we allow them to be tied to the critical banking functions done by banks making loans to corporations and individuals (the real drivers of the economy)?
Of course, the government is busy doing the exact opposite—forcing these investment banks to become bullshit commercial banks, further eroding worldwide confidence in the US banks we actually need to save the useless casino banks that created this whole mess in the first place. Write to your representative right now, telling them to cut this crap out.
If we're throwing around hundreds of billions of dollars to save institutions of questionable societal value, might I suggest the following bailouts to regular people?
1. Extend Medicare to everyone. Eliminate the age floor and instantly create a national healthcare system. This would cost less than the AIG bailout (for the next year) and help every responsible company (that has to pay for health insurance) in the US economy become more competitive.
A lot of people are about to lose their jobs, if this continues. We might as well ease this by finally ridding ourselves of the crumbling and already failed employer-based health care system.
2. Massively boost funding to the governmental student loan programs. If you really want to be smart, even pay off a bunch of student loans (for people who did the right thing, but cannot get jobs because the economy is taildiving.)
3. Make it easier for people to avoid bankruptcy, and easier to get out of bankruptcy if they do fall.
That means rolling back the draconian bankruptcy bill forced on us by the credit industry (the people who created this crisis), renegotiating mortgage terms to payments people can make (something last done during the Great Depression), giving those with high-interest credit card debt access to low-interest government loans (allowing them to finally pay down the principle.)
If we're doing it for poorly managed banks, we should do it for common US citizens. A little bit of amnesty to our fellow Americans could save us all a ton of money and headache.
4. Create the Complement Cooperative.
(Read that link, or this one to include the slog discussion when I first wrote about the concept. This might be the smartest idea I've had.)

Rumor: Pictures of PSP Go appear from Qore
[EDIT] PlayStation LifeStyle has pics of the retail box here.
Some pictures of what appear to be PSP Go! from the June issue of Qore surfaced today.
The source is Gaming Console Network and there'sloads of shots of it posted and more over on PS3center.
Claims stemming from the supposed leak say the system has 16 Gb memory, a slot for more memory, it will not replace the PSP 3000, and it is to be released in the fall with no price point attached at this time.
The images look real, but you can never be too sure.
Judge for yourself until E3.

This paper presents a holistic peer selection scheme in multi-domain environments, aiming to mitigate Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic volumes over expensive inter-domain links as well as the maintenance of desirable P2P users' perceived service quality. The mechanism combines the traditional locality-aware peer selection with the consideration of ISP business relationship. By leveraging between the two peering strategies, the risk of possible congestion on critical inter-connected links can be effectively alleviated due to more concentrated P2P traffic over fewer inter-ISP links under pure cooperative peering schemes. According to our analytical modelling, the proposed hybrid approach is able to achieve better performance for P2P users, and can retain desirable network efficiency as of the cooperative peer selection strategy. Our modelling based analysis offers the incentives to perform peer selections in multi-domain environments wherein non-cooperative networks and cooperative networks coexist.

Anybody have any information binders they would like to share via email? Fairly new to liebert systems and just want to become more familiarized with CRAC units.
Theres a reason everyone talks so highly of fluke. But if your price range is 350 I would go with the fluke 902. Think they run about 300? Clamp style meter with several measurements we use in the...
I love my 902!

Charles Taylor - scrupulous?[edit]
Could someone please explain why Charles Taylor was called a scrupulous faction leader? Is this a confusion with unscrupulous, or is Taylor scrupulous in some other way? Until someone can explain this, I am removing the adjective altogether. For the record, Wiktionary defines scrupulous as:
1. meticulous 2. having scruples or compunctions 3. having principles that guarantee scruples don't arise AidanBC 23:35, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
WPMILHIST Assessment[edit]
An excellent article, long, thorough, detailed, presumably accurate, and seemingly largely if not entirely unbiased - I'll admit, I skimmed, didn't read the whole thing.
- I'm not quite sure what I think about the objectivity (i.e. the non-bias) of the opening paragraph. It seems to imply that the sole significant element of this conflict was its cost in human lives and in displacement of refugees. I think the introduction would be more balanced if it discussed, albeit briefly, the causes and effects of the war, in political and historical terms.
- The section "Where are they now?" could probably benefit from being retitled. It's a simple and compelling chapter title, but not particularly academic or encyclopedic. "Activities of key figures in the aftermath of the civil war" or "Current activities and whereabouts of key actors", while clunky, might be better.
- Also, please consolidate your references & bibliography. LordAmeth 20:31, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
Kabbah at TaRC[edit]
I'm taking out that Kabbah was unstatesmenlike. It seems a bit slanderous, and thus is in violation of the policy on biographical material on living persons (see WP:LIVING). Reading his opening speech, he seems sincerely interested in promoting peace and progress. [2]. Smmurphy(Talk) 02:50, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
citation template[edit]
I started going through the article citing sources for numbers and things like that and I got a bit overwhelmed. I agree that the article could use some lengthening, but for now, I was wondering: rather than putting the citation template, could we maybe put citation needed ({{fact}}) tags next to statements that are "likely to be contested" or wherever you think they are needed. Most of this stuff is fact-y type stuff that you can find in any history book (Hirsch works for almost all of it dated before 2000) or in BBC news articles. Do we really need each and every sentence cited? (P.S. sorry for the American spelling, which anon changed. My spell check is American, and I rarely know and never much care which words have alternate spellings.) Best, Smmurphy(Talk) 17:44, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
- Sourcing every sentence would, of course, be disproportionate. But a topic of this nature is liable to be subject to diverging (often contradictory) interpretations and accounts, hence it is preferable that the article's content be verified using reliable sources; that would entail the extensive distribution of citations (albeit in moderation;-). Arbitrary numbers aside, compare this article with Algerian War and American Civil War). Examples such as "...the former president of Liberia, then a faction leader in Liberia's civil war — reportedly sponsored the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) as a means to destabilize Sierra Leone..." and "...Under Momoh, APC rule was increasingly marked by abuses of power..." logically require attribution. Your additions have certainly alleviated the article's citation problem, so I do support the replacement of {{unreferenced}} with the selective placing of {{fact}} tags. I must add, however, that the cites you introduced should be converted to <ref> format. SoLando (Talk) 08:05, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
- I generally use footnotes (<ref> tag) for things that need some explanation in their citation, and Harvard-like style for short little citations. I'd be fine with using only footnotes, but I never know if I'm supposed to cite things over and over or <ref name=> and "cite footnote more than once" (which doesn't work when different page numbers are used). It would also be pretty easy to put ref tags around citations, as in the Johannes Kepler article WP:CITE mentions. I never care how things are referenced. Anyway, I'll keep working on finding citations. The lines you mentioned should be pretty easy to cite. Right now there isn't near as much depth in this article as in the ones you mentioned, so the facts aren't as liable to multiple interpretations yet. But as we get there, I agree that having a culture of citation around an article is key. Anyway, does the ref tag + extra bibliography make since, or do you prefer just the ref tag? Smmurphy(Talk) 19:57, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- Apologies if this (very late) reply is redundant. Yes, there is no provision stipulating a certain style of formatting - my previous remark merely revealed preferences ;-) I would suggest adopting that format, however, as Harvard-style (to me) appears quite cumbersome and clutters paragraphs in articles that require comprehensive sourcing. Incidentally, I invariably use <ref name=> only when attributing multiple facts to a single page, or when informations is encompassed by sequential pages; I invariably specify its relation to the material using an author and theme (e.g. <ref name="Hitsch Freetown">). But even with the guidance of the MoS, exercising discretion is advisable as how one utilises sources is inherently subjective. While the examples I presented are arguably elementary in the context of those familiar with the conflict (not even taking into account Taylor's war crime charges), it is still preferable to source them to pre-emptively resolve possible disputes and provide...."reassurance" to those learning about the conflict. Indeed, it is essential if this article is to ultimately attain a status of recognition from the community (A-class, GA, FA), as that trend is so evident at WP:FAC. Such hope is arguably premature, however, as there are more fundamental problems that need to be addressed before such a nomination can even be considered. Can I just assure you that I really don't gripe this often! ;-) And please refer to King's Regiment (Liverpool) for an example of my preferred format. By the way, I've just obtained Hirsch's book. Interesting. SoLando (Talk) 14:42, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- Sounds good to me. I like the style of the King's Regiment page you linked to. I hope you haven't taken my use of the Hirsch book as a recommendation. The book is pretty bland, to my taste. Its a bit short, and now out-of-date, but it is well respected and easy to leaf through, so its a good source for citations. Let me know if you have any ideas about how to make this page better, though. I made some heavy-ish contributions here a while ago, but my energy for it petered out... Best, Smmurphy(Talk) 21:23, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
"Lemon, the Governor-General (representing the British Monarch) declared Siaka Stevens—APC leader and Mayor of Freetown—as the new Prime Minister." Who is Lemon? I can't find anything out about anyone named that. Recury 17:51, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
- No idea, here is the List of Governors-General of Sierra Leone, no Lemon. I think the section needs some rework. Perhaps such early events belong more in the history of Sierra Leone article, as it came a generation before the civil war itself. The again... Smmurphy(Talk) 23:51, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
I tried to upload a new picture for the thumbnail on the right. I failed. Sorry for vandalizing the page. But more importantly, I will be working on this page in earnest the next couple of days...so stay tuned for some updates.IR393.sae211 (talk) 21:31, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
- No problem. I fixed the map - I put in the new map you uploaded, but you need to add information about the image at the image's upload page here . BTW, that wasn't "vandalism". Vandalism is when you destroy something on purpose. That was just a technical editing error. Good luck with your work on the article. Best regards! -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:28, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
In-line references needed[edit]
This article does not have adequate in-line citations to sources. See WP:CITE for instructions on how to use references in Wikipedia. Generally, there should be at least one citation per paragraph. Without in-line references, it is difficult to assess the reliability of the information. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 06:31, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
Most of the references are here now - just need a dozen more. I have increased the assessment to C-class, but I don't know how to fix the MILHIST banner. -- Ssilvers (talk) 03:07, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
formatting of dates[edit]
Hi fellow contributors, I am a new editor and I've been kind of obsessing about this entry lately so I have done a bunch of edits. Just realized that in my zeal I've been erroneously changing dates from Euro style to U.S. style so I apologize. Will change them all back to Euro style next time I am on if no one has done it by then. I also want to say I only just realized that this was a student's project so I apologize for stepping on any toes if I made changes to your work, IR393.sae211. Choozy78 (talk) 13:03, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Choozy. The student has turned in the project to the professor, so I suspect that he is taking a break from the article. Also, the classes involved in the project understand that other editors will edit the students' work. That is how Wikipedia works. Yes, please do change the dates back to Euro style. It seems to me that you are doing a good job of moving this article forward. The most important thing is to add citations to WP:Reliable sources, if you can, where it says "citation needed". Thanks for your help - it's great to see enthusiastic new editors! -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:13, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
Excellent work, Choozy! -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:25, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
Links to main articles[edit]
I didn't put these links in, but if you want to delete any of them, please explain why they are not helpful. Those articles have, or will have, more background that could be helpful to the reader. Thanks for discussing before deleting. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:14, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- In the case of the "resource curse" I thought it would read more smoothly if incorporated into the section itself. The section title was "the resource curse" but the expression wasn't explained or defined anywhere in the body of the section itself. Once I had incorporated its definition into the body of the section in a sentence, including a link to its wikipedia entry, it didn't seem to be necessary to have it listed as a "main article" under the section heading as well. Sorry I should have put a comment in when I edited that section. Choozy78 (talk) 07:39, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. That makes sense in this case, and your addition of the explanation was good, but you also needed to add a citation to a source. I added one for you, but check it to see if you have a better one. Two other editors deleted the links in other sections, but I put one of them back where I felt that the link to the main article might be helpful. -- Ssilvers (talk) 15:50, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- The source citation for "resource curse" that you added was fine, thanks for that. Choozy78 (talk) 20:54, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
FYI, be careful of bad links. NPRC, for example, links to an unrelated article. -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:24, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- Great new refs. Just a note that you normally don't need three or more refs for one proposition. Usually, you should just pick the best one or two, unless there is a special reason why you need to have more refs for the sentence. All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:33, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
I am working on an NPRC article on my user page so I'll relink it when it's up. Each reference refers to a difference piece of info in that sentence. I will look back and see if I can separate out one of the points into a new sentence if necessary. Choozy78 (talk) 01:33, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- By the way Ssilvers I agree with you that the Abidjan Peace Accord link to main article should not have been cut Choozy78 (talk) 07:24, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Liberian Civil War[edit]
The biggest flaw in the article as it stands (apart from the "citations needed" that I am ploughing through) is the inadequate acknowledgment of the connection between the Sierra Leone civil war and the Liberian Civil War. I'm hoping to work up a section on that and put it under the "causes of war" section. Choozy78 (talk) 01:14, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
shortening of names of agreements[edit]
In regard to your correcting "Abidjan mandated that...", Buckshot06, I don't think it needs to be reverted back (and I was not the one who wrote it that way originally) but just wanted to mention that writers do sometimes refer to peace agreements, conferences etc. by their shortened form (including just the name of the city in which they occurred) when it's clear from the context that that is what is being referred to. eg. The Fourth World Conference on Women which took place in Beijing in 1995 is often referred to in shorthand as "Beijing" in articles about the progress of women's rights "since Beijing." Whoever wrote it even made the link on the word "Abidjan" link directly to Abidjan Peace Accord. Anyway your fix was fine too but just wanted to mention this. Choozy78 (talk) 18:29, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- I'll agree with Buckshot on this one. What Choozy says is true, but I think it needs to be very clear, since we are writing for a general audience, rather than for the political history crowd. I am not familiar with this stuff, and I found the short form jarring, even though it is linked. Sometimes we can do a service for our readers by simplifying the terminology that is familiar and convenient to readers of specialist sources. Just my 2 cents, though. -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:13, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
I thought the change was fine and it made sense, but I just wanted to mention that it's not an "error" strictly-speaking, but a style choice. Choozy78 (talk) 23:33, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, yes, definitely just a style choice (see also WP:MOS for our general style guidelines). It is hard, when editing collaboratively online, to convey to people the tone of what you mean. If you see an edit summary that looks a little insensitive, or whatever, it is good to assume that the person meant it in the best possible light. So, in this case, I'm sure that what Buckshot meant was that the change reflected her or his understanding of our usual style in these matters. By assuming this, it makes interactions more positive and saves a lot of worry. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:54, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks guys. I am very well aware that 'Rio' can refer to the Earth Summit or 'Yalta' to (Yalta Conference). But Ssilvers writes the reason why I made the change - not everyone knows this kind of stuff. For the same reason, we ought to be very careful about our use of abbreviations, and even consider using the full form a second time half way down a really long article. But in general, this is a fantastic expansion using good sources on a underappreciated topic; great work guys. You may be interested to look at one of my prize articles, Armed Forces of Liberia, and if you've got spare time, National Patriotic Front of Liberia could probably use expansion as well. Happy holidays!! Buckshot06 (talk) 19:04, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks to Choozy's research, we are down to six "citation needed" tags. I'm promoting the article to B-class. -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:21, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
Message from Military History Project talk page[edit]
Hi. I am copying this message that I saw about this article over at the talk page for the WP:Military history project.
- It's a great expansion - really helpful. I've been doing a lot of work on Military of Sierra Leone and you may find useful material there too. Can you explain the 'Sobels' better please? What exact links did they have with the rebels? Buckshot06 (talk) 23:28, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
I think it would be super if you two discuss these items here. I don't have much to contribute in this area. Choozy, if you have any questions about Wikipedia editing, in general, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:41, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks Ssilvers and thanks for your advice and tips so far. Hi Buckshot06, basically during the civil war things got rather murky and members of the Sierra Leone Army started playing both sides. As for the specifics of the links, well, they ranged from soldiers simply "acting like" rebels and then blaming them (eg. looting villages and disguising their activities as those of the RUF), to actually coordinating with and collaborating with the RUF (eg. deliberately withdrawing from defended areas, leaving pre-arranged resources, ammunitions etc. for the RUF). From everything I've read about "sobels" so far they weren't so much an organized force as individuals or groups acting opportunistically in the rural areas. Choozy78 (talk) 23:22, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks Choozy. Your work on this article has been really good. For my PhD research I have been perpherially looking at the question of why warlords hit their 'own' civilians, and I see you've linked an article on the subject. Do you have a copy of 'Azam, Jean-Paul (2006). "On Thugs and Heroes: Why Warlords Victimize Their Own Civilians". Economics of Governance 7: 53–73?' Is it possible to e-mail it to me? You can contact me via the EmailThisUser button on the left hand of my userpage. Kind regards from New Zealand, Buckshot06 (talk) 21:13, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Buckshot06, I have emailed you. Cheers, Choozy78 (talk) 00:10, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
Hey All,
I'm very impressed with the changes and improvements that have been made to this page since I last visited. Just as month ago, this page was little more than an ill-informed cribbing from a State Department website. Best of luck editing! --IR393.sae211 (talk) 16:43, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, Sae. Your rewrite of the article was extremely valuable, not only for the new content and reference that you added, but also, it provided an excellent framework for other editors to continue to improve and refine the document. Well done! -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:21, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, we could not have done it without your excellent foundations IR393.sae211! I got really into it over the December/January new year but I am now busy at work again, I hope to do some more work on it when I next have some time, Jun/July. Choozy78 (talk) 23:31, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

ABC7 WEATHER: Mostly sunny with highs near 70. http://wj.la/72e8x6
'GOOD MORNING WASHINGTON': Among the reports - Liquor licenses on tap in the District; much more, beginning at 4:30 a.m. M-F.
GUNS FOR ANYONE: Or something like that, per the Baltimore Sun, "More than 300 people banned from owning guns were able to buy them last year because the state police were overwhelmed with background check requests, police said Wednesday. People with histories of mental illness or convictions for violent misdemeanors, felons and fugitives were able to obtain and keep guns for three months or longer before state police reviewed the sales, according to records released by request to The Baltimore Sun.
"Maryland State Police finally cleared the backlog of background-check requests last week that began more than a year ago and once stood at more than 60,000, leading to months-long delays in investigating thousands of firearm transactions. Police say a team of undercover troopers has recovered nearly all of the 364 firearms sold to people barred from owning them, but four guns have not been retrieved. "To us, the danger has not passed," state police spokesman Greg Shipley said." http://bsun.md/1jvPKZM
PIGGY BANK: It's bulging, per the Richmond Times-Dispatch, "Sen. Mark R. Warner, D-Va., has raised more than $11.2 million for his re-election bid and has $8.8 million cash on hand, according to a statement his campaign released Wednesday. During the quarter that ended March 31, Warner received contributions totaling nearly $2.7 million from more than 11,000 donors, with almost two-thirds of all contributors from Virginia, the statement said.
". . . Warner's potential Republican opponent, Ed Gillespie, who will seek his party's nomination at a statewide GOP convention in Roanoke in June, did not release his fundraising figures Wednesday, his spokesman Paul Logan said. Candidates have until April 15 to report all contributions to their campaigns." http://bit.ly/1huWXuz
NO DICE: Of D.C. high schools, per the Washington Post, "Days after Mayor Vincent C. Gray (D) released proposals to overhaul the District's school boundaries and student-assignment policies, the two mayoral hopefuls in the November election said they would not support any plan that eliminates neighborhood high schools.
". . . The Gray administration's proposals would not only overhaul school boundaries for the first time in 40 years, but they also could fundamentally change how children are placed in schools, possibly using lottery admissions instead of giving students the right to attend their neighborhood schools." http://wapo.st/R4YDA9
BOSTON MARATHON BOMBING: New details, per the New York Times, "The Russian government declined to provide the F.B.I. with information about one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects that would most likely have led to more extensive scrutiny of him at least two years before the attack, according to an inspector general's report.
"Russian officials had told the F.B.I. in 2011 that the suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, "was a follower of radical Islam and a strong believer" and that Mr. Tsarnaev "had changed drastically since 2010 as he prepared to leave the United States for travel to the country's region to join unspecified underground groups." But after an initial investigation by the F.B.I., the Russians declined several requests for additional information about Mr. Tsarnaev, according to the report, a review of how intelligence and law enforcement agencies could have thwarted the bombing." http://nyti.ms/1huyqFW
SCHOOL STABBINGS: A cloudy portrait, per the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "He always seemed to be "the shy kid in the corner," a classmate said.
"Hours after a startling and savage attack Wednesday morning that left 21 students and a security guard wounded, that was the picture that began to emerge of 16-year-old Alex Hribal, a sophomore at Franklin Regional High School. Armed with two 8-inch knives, he is accused of stabbing and slashing his way through a crowded hallway in an assault that was labeled "bizarre" by both a prosecutor and his own lawyer. Interviews with nearly two dozen students Wednesday evening at various vigils organized by churches yielded precious little background about Alex, who was arraigned on charges of attempted homicide, aggravated assault and weapon possession. Four of his alleged victims remained in critical condition Wednesday night." http://bit.ly/1qvyjcS
POTUS AND LBJ: A union - more or less, per the Los Angeles Times, "President Obama has tried to model Abraham Lincoln's team of rivals and Teddy Roosevelt's power of the bully pulpit. He's lauded Ronald Reagan's communication skills and linked himself to the Kennedy clan. He's praised his onetime nemesis, George W. Bush, as well as his onetime adversary, Bill Clinton. But Obama has rarely cozied up to the predecessor some argue did more than any other modern president to pave the way for his election as the nation's first black president: Lyndon B. Johnson.
"Five years into his presidency, Obama will head to Austin on Thursday to remedy what some Johnson admirers have described as a "pattern of omission." At a ceremony at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and Museum, Obama will honor Johnson and the Civil Rights Act, signed 50 years ago this year." http://lat.ms/1gbCxVG
MEANWHILE: Just the facts, per The Hill, "President Obama on Wednesday vowed to step up efforts to help veterans and soldiers suffering from mental health issues, and pledged the nation would stand with the families of victims killed in last week's Fort Hood shooting. "We must honor these men with a renewed commitment to keep our troops safe not just in battle, but on the home front," Obama said at a memorial service for the fallen soldiers.
"Three soldiers were killed and another 16 were injured by an Army truck driver who then took his own life during the mass shooting last week on the Texas Army base. The president said the tragedy "tears a wound still raw" from another shooting on the base five years ago, when an Army psychiatrist killed 12 and injured 31 others at the base." http://bit.ly/1g89EX1
POLITICO PLAY: "House Republicans on Wednesday accused former IRS official Lois Lerner of breaking agency rules by aggressively urging denial of tax-exempt status to Crossroads GPS, the giant political nonprofit founded by Karl Rove.
"The House Ways and Means Committee released emails showing the former chief of the tax-exempt unit took a special interest in Crossroads GPS in early 2013 inquiring with IRS officials why they hadn't been audited. Around the same time an email suggested she might be applying for a job with a pro-President Barack Obama group, Organizing For Action, though it is unclear if she was joking." http://politi.co/1ku3Zlx
HOOS AND HOKIES: And nice cars, per the Charlottesville Daily Progress, "The University of Virginia and Virginia Tech are now a part of a worldwide network of universities helping Rolls-Royce with engineering research. U.Va. and Virginia Tech were named to the company's network of University Technology Centers, a group of about 30 institutions from around the world. They, along with Purdue University, are the only American institutions with the designation.
"U.Va. and Virginia Tech have shared research programs with Rolls-Royce for more than a decade, but the new classification gives them the ability to carry out much more technical, specific research that could translate into product development. U.Va. will specialize in advanced material systems and flow modeling. Virginia Tech will focus on the study of systems diagnostics, flow modeling and power electronics." http://bit.ly/1izGPo7
UNEXPECTED FACE: At large, per City Paper, "Out of the District's nearly 650,000 residents, Ward 7 D.C. Councilmember Yvette Alexander is one of the people LL would least expect run for an at-large Council seat in November. After all, Alexander just won re-election to her own seat two years ago. Nevertheless, Alexander tells LL that, like colleague Tommy Wells, she's considering switching her party registration to independent and running for the seat." http://bit.ly/PTVXVj
NATIONAL HARBOR: Of disgruntled neighbors, per Gazette.Net, "For many area residents, National Harbor is a popular destination for dinner, shopping and live entertainment, but Joyce Thorpe and other nearby Fort Washington community members say the development has been a nuisance to their once-peaceful neighborhood and expect the problem to get worse once another major attraction is installed by this summer.
"Thorpe, a retired lawyer and neighborhood activist who has been fighting the development for years, said residents have dealt with noise from a hotel laundromat, waterfront music festivals, the odor from portable toilets, crowds and the traffic. Now, as National Harbor gears up for spring and summer, Virginia-based developer Peterson Cos. is preparing to open a 176-foot tall Ferris wheel it describes as a "world-class icon" similar to those in Paris and London. But Thorpe and some of her neighbors see it as one more nuisance from the developer they say has been a troublesome neighbor." http://bit.ly/1ku1EHl
POT PROBLEMS: Enforcement could be tricky, per the Frederick News-Post, "Frederick County State's Attorney Charlie Smith said a marijuana decriminalization bill that was passed in the final hours of the Maryland General Assembly session Monday is fraught with difficulties for police and prosecutors.
"The bill, which Gov. Martin O'Malley has said he will sign into law, will remove criminal penalties for carrying less than 10 grams of marijuana. Possessing small amounts of the substance would be a civil offense punishable by fines of up to $100. Possessing more than 10 grams would still be considered a criminal offense.

BAD AND GOOD: Of numbers, per ARLnow, "Arlington's retail sales dropped at the end of 2013 while other indicators of a strong economy like housing prices and unemployment improved over the same time period. In the fourth quarter of 2013, Arlington reported about $813 million in taxable retail sales in its March economic indicators study today. Over the same period in 2013, Arlington had about $786 million, a drop of 3.3 percent. The change can't be attributed to the unusually snowy winter, either: nearly all of the snow this winter fell in the first quarter of 2014, after these numbers were recorded." http://bit.ly/1hjR1DK

Boy, we are an impatient bunch, aren't we? In preparation for this column, I typically peruse the most added/dropped list (a great tool by the way) to get a better idea of what is going on in the fantasy world. For the most part, what I see on the list comes as no surprise, but every once in a while I'm flat-out stunned.
Case in point: Devin Harris has been dropped in 17.3 percent of ESPN leagues during the past week. Huh? OK, I understand that he had a few rough games (including consecutive 4-point efforts earlier in the week), but hasn't the point guard proven that he's talented enough to go through a mini-slump and still be owned in fantasy leagues? Here's a guy who averaged 16.3 points, 5.7 assists and 1.4 steals per game through the month of November, and he's now available in almost 20 percent of ESPN leagues.
If you're wondering why he's been a little off his game, it's probably because opposing defenders are starting to back off Harris on the perimeter in an effort to limit his ability to get into the lane. Harris has struggled to adapt, but fear not, this is merely an adjustment period for the lightning-quick point guard. Soon enough, he'll start knocking down some midrange jumpers, thus forcing opponents to play him a little tighter on the perimeter. I have little doubt that he'll bounce back, and those owners who dropped him will want to rush back out to the wire and scoop him back up before it's too late.
Last week's suggestions: Travis Outlaw, Kurt Thomas and Steve Francis.
Kenyon Martin, PF, Nuggets (31.9 percent owned): I was able to catch some of the Denver-Miami game last Sunday and came away impressed with Martin's explosiveness in a 20-point, 8-rebound, 2-steal, 1-block performance. His effort prompted me to mention him at the end of last week's column, and Martin has continued to produce with 14.6 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 2.0 blocks per game during his past five. Sounds a little like the K-Mart of old, doesn't it? Here's the thing, Martin actually looks like the K-Mart of old for the first time since undergoing multiple knee surgeries. Martin was widely known for throwing down vicious jams and playing tenacious D back in his heyday, and that's exactly what he's doing right now. In fact, Martin's explosive dunks even prompted Benjamin Hochman of the Denver Post to joke "forget a bone bruise in Kenyon Martin's knee, Nuggets fans should worry about a bone bruise in his hands." Of course, there's no guarantee that his knees will be able to hold up during the course of a full season, but anyone who remembers the old K-Mart knows that he'd be well worth the investment as long as he can keep himself healthy. One thing is for sure: he looks as healthy as he has in years right now.
Francisco Garcia, SG/SF, Kings (18.4 percent owned): Making his third appearance in this space this season, Garcia has had quite the up-and-down year thus far. His erratic play, however, is mostly due to a lack of consistent minutes rather than anything else. Kevin Martin's groin injury will again open the door for Garcia to put up quality fantasy numbers for at least the next 4-6 weeks. Most owners ran out to grab John Salmons as soon as they learned of Martin's injury (and he's definitely the best add here, though he's probably gone at this point), but don't forget about Garcia, who will be the first man off the bench for Reggie Theus' Kings. Garcia has proven to be a very capable fantasy player when he's seeing minutes, averaging 18.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.7 steals, 0.6 blocks and 0.7 3-pointers in games in which he's seen 30 minutes or more this season.
Darko Milicic, PF/C, Grizzlies (32.3 percent owned): Darko is far from an unknown in the fantasy game, which makes it all the more surprising to see him available in nearly 70 percent of ESPN leagues. Darko hasn't had a great season thus far, but he was pretty solid averaging 10.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 1.9 blocks in eight games to start the season before missing his next seven contests with a sprained ankle. He's had a little trouble getting back into the flow offensively since his return last week, but he's still blocking shots, and should be able to return to scoring around 10-12 points per game once he gets back up to game speed. It is important to note that the Grizzlies seem to want Darko to succeed, as they've benched the red-hot Juan Carlos Navarro to make room for the big man in the frontcourt. It is clear that Darko is going to log around 30 minutes per game this season, so there's no reason he can't average 10 points, 8 boards and 2 blocks per game going forward.
If You're Hardcore
Last week's suggestions: Anthony Carter, Sebastian Telfair, Jason Maxiell, Kenyon Martin and Rafer Alston.
There's no doubt that Larry Hughes has been more than disappointing since coming over to the Cavaliers, but he can still be a solid player in deeper leagues provided that he's actually on the court. Hughes can still create steals at a high rate (1.7 per game), and he returned to action after an 11-game absence with a nice 22-point, 2-steal performance Saturday night in Charlotte. Just make sure you're aware that he could go down with another injury at any time.
Maybe the Minnesota Timberwolves are finally figuring out that they need to play their young rising stars. Both Craig Smith and Corey Brewer are starting to earn more minutes as the 3-15 Wolves seem to be slowly working their youngsters into the starting lineup. Smith looks to be the safer gamble of the two, going off for 18.0 points and 8.5 rebounds in 31.5 minutes over his past two games while Brewer will offer more upside due to his versatility. The rookie has put up 6.0 points, 14.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.0 steals in 37.5 minutes in the Wolves' past two contests.
Kurt Thomas is still gobbling up rebounds in Seattle, but then again, so is Nick Collison. Collison returned from a broken nose Wednesday with a dominant 18-point, 17-rebound effort, then followed it up with a 12-point, 8-rebound performance Friday against the Bucks. This is all business as usual for Collison, who will go off from time to time, but usually settles into his normal 10-point, 8-rebound self in the long run.
I'd really like to stay away from all Seattle point guards, but it's hard to ignore Earl Watson when he's averaging 10.6 points and 7.6 assists per game over his past five. Watson makes for a nice short-term addition, but his stats will likely suffer once Luke Ridnour and Delonte West are back at full strength. Ridnour returned to action Sunday night, but will likely take at least a week for him to get back into the flow of things, so Watson should be useful for at least a few more games.
A lot of folks have been asking about both Dorell Wright and Daequan Cook in Miami. Both have some upside, but neither is refined enough to offer much consistency in fantasy leagues. I guess in deeper formats, Wright is worth a flier, as long as you are aware that he's a high-risk/high-reward gamble.
Rasual Butler and Julian Wright will see more time in New Orleans due to injuries to both Peja Stojakovic and Morris Peterson. I don't think either will have too much value, but if you're forced into grabbing one, Butler is the guy you want. He has more experience and proved that he could be a decent fill-in last year.
Don't write off Anderson Varejao just because he's been missing in action for the first month of the season. He has the potential to be a big-time rebounder, and although it will likely take him some time to get back into game shape, he's definitely one to keep an eye on during the next few weeks to see where he fits in the rotation.

I'm developing a camera application. Sometimes I tried to re-install the app when it is in foreground. In the installation process, the application will be killed, and the the
onPause() won't be invoked, in which I stop the preview and release the camera resource. Under normal circumstances, the system will automatically close and release the camera, and I got the following log.
03-14 15:48:36.316: E/CameraHardwareSec(83): Could not dequeue gralloc buffer!

03-14 15:48:36.394: W/AudioFlinger(83): session id 90 not found for pid 83
However sometimes these log information didn't print out. And I guess it means the camera was not released. So when the app restarted, it throws a runtime exception "
failed to connect to camera service" when trying open the camera.
Does anyone have any idea about why the system didn't release the camera when killed it.

Chimpanzee insectivory in the northern half of Uganda's Rift Valley: do Bulindi chimpanzees conform to a regional pattern?

Insects are a nutritious food source for many primates. In chimpanzees, insectivory is most prevalent among communities that manufacture tools to harvest social insects, particularly ants and termites. In contrast to other long-term study sites, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) in Budongo Forest and Kibale National Park, Uganda, rarely eat insects and have small foraging tool kits, supporting speculation that infrequent insectivory—technically aided or otherwise—characterises chimpanzees in this part of Uganda's Rift Valley. To expand the dataset for this region, insect foraging was investigated at Bulindi (25 km from Budongo) over 19 months during two studies in 2007–2008 and 2012–2013. Systematic faecal analysis demonstrated that insectivory is a habitual foraging activity at this site. Overall levels of insect consumption varied considerably across months but were not predicted by monthly changes in rainfall or fruit intake. Unlike their Budongo and Kibale counterparts, Bulindi chimpanzees often consume ants (principally weaver ants, Oecophylla longinoda) and use sticks to dig out stingless bee (Meliponini) ground nests. In other respects, however, insectivory at Bulindi conforms to the pattern observed elsewhere in this region: they do not manufacture 'fishing' or 'dipping' tools to harvest termites and aggressive or hard-to-access ants (e.g., army ants, Dorylus spp.), despite availability of suitable prey. The Bulindi data lend support to the supposition that chimpanzees in this part of the Rift Valley rarely exploit termites and Dorylus ants, apparently lacking the 'cultural knowledge' that would enable them to do so most efficiently (i.e., tool use). The study's findings contribute to current debates about the relative influence of genetics, environment and culture in shaping regional and local variability in Pan foraging ecology.
