Well, he's a free agent, too. And he's coming back. "I'll be back in Cleveland for sure," Jones told the Northeast Ohio Media Group Sunday in Las Vegas, on the red carpet for the first Players' Awards show. "I've made it well known last year when I told them I was coming to help change the culture and do something special," Jones said. "It wasn't a situation where I was looking for a platform to move on. I was looking to be a part of something, to build something. And so I'm still in."

And he didn't think too much into draft night back in June, as the Bulls were in heated discussions to try and land highly coveted guard Kris Dunn, reportedly using Butler to do so. "It's not their job to report anything to me,'' Butler said of general manager Gar Forman and VP of basketball operations John Paxson. "I'm a big boy. I don't need you to tell me, 'No, you're not going to be traded.' I know it's a business and if it happens it happens, but I'm here. "I don't pay attention to it. I was in the gym working out during the draft. My phone was blowing up, but what can I do? I can go in the office and be like, 'Hey please don't trade me?' If they were going to do that, that's on them not me.''
Jimmy Butler brushes aside the notion that he had a hand in the exit of multiple longtime Chicago Bulls players during the offseason. "That has nothing to do with me. I don't move guys," Butler said before Thursday's Team USA practice at the United Center. "It's like I always say: People are going to think what they want to think." "That doesn't bother me," he added. "I know where I stand. I know who I am."
"I'm happy for [Rose]. He's happy for me," Butler said. "I'm glad we get to go against each other whatever day that may be when the season rolls around. "I talked to Jo. We texted a few messages. Nothing too serious, but we're always going to have love for each other because we're always going to be teammates. We were in those trenches together."
NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, one of the most active former athletes in politics, took the stage at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, where he took a jab at Republican nominee Donald Trump. "Hello everyone. I'm Michael Jordan, and I'm here with Hillary," Abdul-Jabbar said. "I said that because I know that Donald Trump couldn't tell the difference".

The Bucks are still looking to find a taker for Greg Monroe and it sounds like they've spoken to the Pelicans about him this offseason. "I think [the Bucks] got closer than maybe has been reported with New Orleans during either the draft or free agency," ESPN's Zach Lowe said during today's episode of The Lowe Post podcast (54:25 mark for the relevant portion). "Monroe's a New Orleans native," ESPN's Marc Stein added. "I think that's where he wants to end up." Neither Lowe nor Stein suggested that a deal between the Pelicans and Bucks is currently in the works, but Stein expects the big man to eventually be moved, and those two clubs also discussed Monroe prior to this year's trade deadline.
This past Monday, Gay, 29, spoke with popular Sactown Royalty, a popular fan site hosted by SBNation, about his frustrations from last season and scratching his head about his future with the Kings. Following those comments, Gay told ABC10 on Thursday afternoon that he had since spoken with Divac. "I have talked to Vlade," Gay said from his Nike Skills Academy at Hardwood Palace in Rocklin. "I can't say since Monday stuff has changed, but I just feel like we have a little bit of time to start changing things."

Regional water-rate hike: 10% by 2014
[caption id="attachment_170228" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Part of the Colorado River Aqueduct. Maintaining aging infrastructure is helping drive up costs for the Metropolitan Water District, which voted to raise its wholesale water rate Tuesday. Register file photo by Jebb Harris. "][/caption]
The region's water wholesaler will raise rates for downstream agencies 10 percent by 2014 -- in part a result of lower water demand due to increased conservation in times of drought.
On Tuesday, the board of the Metropolitan Water District in Los Angeles approved back to back, five percent rate increases for 2012-13 and 2013-14. And while Metropolitan does not charge residential customers directly -- the rate increases are for the 26 water agencies that buy from Metropolitan -- at least some of the increase will likely be passed on to consumers, including those in Orange County.
"Part of what is driving rates up is a 15 percent drop in sales," said Gary Breaux, assistant general manager and chief financial officer at Metropolitan. "But we were able to make that up with cuts in the budget to keep the rate increases as low as they are."
Costs are also rising for upgrading and replacing aging infrastructure, the agency said, in its vast, 5,200-square-mile service area, from Ventura to San Diego counties, which includes some 19 million people.
Metropolitan expects to spend $280 million on such upgrades over the next two years.
Another $20 million a year also is spent on conservation programs.
Some of the 26 Orange County cities and water agencies that are part of the Municipal Water District of Orange County could decide to pass on rate increases to their customers by June, said spokeswoman Darcy Burke, though each will make its own decision.
And while the Orange County Water District, which manages the county's deep drinking-water aquifer, does not charge residential customers directly, it does purchase water from Metropolitan to recharge the aquifer.
Each five percent rate increase will cost the district about $413,000, said senior manager John Kennedy; the costs will be passed on to cities that draw water from the aquifer, and those cities will eventually pass costs on to residential customers, Kennedy said.
The Metropolitan board rejected other proposals Tuesday, including a 7.5 percent increase as well as two three percent increases with more budget cuts as proposed by the San Diego Water Authority, before settling on two five percent increases.
The agency has cut 160 staff positions over three years.
"Starting back in October, through December, we looked at every cost really closely," Breaux said. "We've already done a lot of cutting. Where we are, we don't see an opportunity to do further cutting."

Princeton Running Back Dibilio Won't Return Following Stroke
Princeton University running back Chuck Dibilio, last year's Ivy League Football Rookie of the Year, won't return for the fall semester as he recovers from a stroke, the New Jersey school said.
Dibilio, who turns 20 tomorrow, has been rehabilitating since suffering the stroke on Jan. 19.
"Chuck has made amazing progress, and hopefully he will make even more in the next few months," Bob Surace, Princeton's football coach, said in a statement on the school's website. "I believe he is making the best decision for his future, and I'm very hopeful we will see Chuck back on campus as a student in the spring."
Dibilio rushed for 1,068 yards last season, the most by any true freshman in Ivy League history and the sixth-most by any Princeton running back in a season. Princeton had a 1-9 record, including 1-6 in league play.

Sorry if this is a noob question. I have just come to the choice of picking 64 or 32 bit CentOs. My processor is 64bit and I have heard 64bit can be faster and has more expansion capaability. The only issue I am worried about is software capability. I need to have FFMPEG, clam av, and x264 libraries installed. Would a 64bit installation affect the ability to run certain programs in general?
Unless you have a very small amount of memory or intend to run your memory at >95% all the time then you'll be fine with 64-bit and it'll scale better too :)

Just wondering if anyone knows of a plugin or something similar that allows you to configure a WordPress website to for example 'Do All Updates 7 Days After Release', so that once there is a new update available for WordPress or a Plugin or a Theme etc - WordPress will automatically do the updates 'X' days after they are released. I'm thinking it would be best to delay the update by 'X' days encase there is a problem with it and this will give the developers ( and of course other Ginnie Pigs )time to identify and rectify the problem in the latest update.
Does anyone know of a good way to do this?
I know it's as simple as logging in and clicking update, but when managing A LOT of websites it would be handy to have this aspect just... taken care of :)
Thanks in advance

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2011-07-25/In the news
Open access clash with copyright; rising reader satisfaction; the wiki-correlates of geopolitical instability; brief news
Open-access activists clash with proprietary journal establishment
|Wikinews has related news: Aaron Swartz arrested and charged for downloading JSTOR articles
Aaron Swartz (User:AaronSw), an open-access activist, open-source developer, and 2006 candidate for the Wikimedia Foundation Board, is being criminally prosecuted for a variety of charges after he attempted to download a dump of all the PDFs on JSTOR, an academic paper repository containing archives from more than a thousand journals, mostly in the humanities. Swartz placed a laptop running a script, written specifically for downloading, inside a computer cabinet at MIT. After being caught attempting to take the computer out of the building at MIT, he was arrested and then charged in US Federal Court, although JSTOR have said they intend not to pursue civil litigation and have asked the US Attorney's Office to not pursue criminal charges against Swartz. He has pleaded not guilty and has been bailed on a $100,000 unsecured bond.
Swartz's indictment was widely reported in the international news media and the technology press, including the The New York Times, Washington Post, The Guardian, PC World, and Wired News Threatlevel. Software engineer Kevin Webb gave a sympathetic take in a post on Reuters' MediaFile, describing how many academics frequently bend copyright law with regard to scholarly publishing, and suggesting that Swartz may have been intending to do data analysis on the JSTOR collection rather than distributing the files on the Internet—a theory supported by Swartz's past work trying to determine "Who Writes Wikipedia?"
Following Swartz's arrest, Greg Maxwell (User:Gmaxwell) released a 33 GB torrent of pre-1923 papers from the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, held by JSTOR. The papers are out of copyright in the US, based on the decision in Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp., but are of unknown legal status in the UK, where the Royal Society is based. Maxwell's document releases are in some ways similar to actions by Derrick Coetzee (User:Dcoetzee), who extracted images of public-domain paintings from a website and uploaded them to Wikimedia Commons, resulting in legal threats by the National Portrait Gallery. Maxwell's actions were reported in a variety of news sources, including the Boston.com MetroDesk blog, the technology website GigaOm and Gawker. The legal status of Maxwell's document releases and the differences between UK and US law are explored in a blog-post by Wikipedia administrator and Signpost contributor User:Ironholds, entitled "A Bridgeman too far". Further analysis and speculation about the prosecution has been published by Samuel Klein (User:Sj) on his blog. Existing Royal Society material is already being proofread on Wikisource as part of WikiProject Royal Society Journals.
The incident occurred in a week when the Wikimedia Foundation affirmed its commitment to joining forces with open science. Jay Walsh, the Head of Communications at the Foundation, told The Signpost:
|I can say that we're aware of Greg Maxwell's efforts in terms of the upload of out-of-copyright papers from the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society to a peer-to-peer network.
Of course it is legal to possess and distribute free works, including works that are out of copyright, within the public domain, or available under a creative commons license. Works in the public domain should be freely available to all, and we believe that academic researchers should distribute their works under open access policies.
The Wikimedia Foundation's mission is to spread free knowledge globally. We support Gregory Maxwell's lawful efforts to freely distribute and share valuable scientific journal articles that are in the public domain. Our projects are built on volunteer efforts to collaboratively build the world's body of free knowledge, work that can and should be shared freely with everyone.
Wikipedia tops the charts againThe second annual survey of the e-business sector by the American Customer Satisfaction Index (in conjunction with ForeSee Results) found, again, that Wikipedia has proven to be the "social media site" that American consumers find most satisfactory. Wikipedia improved its score by one point to 78 (on a scale of 1 to 100), beating such titans as YouTube (74 points) and Facebook (66). Credit for its success was attributed to its non-commercial nature. The social media sector overall performed relatively poorly, behind all but the airline, subscription television, and newspaper industries; Wikipedia was "the only social media site to beat the e-business (75.4) and national (75.6) averages for customer satisfaction". The website American consumers rated most highly was Google (83 points), closely followed by search competitor Bing (82) and Foxnews.com (82). (See also last year's Signpost coverage: "High Wikipedia customer satisfaction explained by user interface stability and non-profit nature")
Drama imitates life in geopolitical stability stakes
In a new paper published in the open-access journal PLoS ONE, researchers at Heidelberg University have proposed that the level of geopolitical instability of a nation-state is positively correlated with the frequency of disputes on Wikipedia about content related to the country. Drawing from methodologies used in biological network research, the researchers compiled a Wikipedia Dispute Index, which showed the parts of the world involved most intensively in on-wiki conflicts. The index was conceived as a less complex but more immediate and comprehensive supplement to existing widely used socio-economic indices, which have been criticized for producing results that are difficult to reproduce and to compare across different time-periods. According to the researchers, the Wikipedia Dispute Index "correlates with metrics of governance, political or economic stability about as well as they correlate with each other, and though faster and simpler, it is remarkably stable over time despite constant changes in the underlying disputes."
Compiling the index was hampered by insufficient data to reliably assess the majority of countries and regions, and by their uneven coverage in Wikipedia, but the researchers expect the Index to improve as the encyclopedia expands. The greatest frequencies of disputes were found in the Middle East, the countries making up the former state of Yugoslavia, and North Korea, while articles concerning Western European and North American countries attracted the least conflict. Disputes over events and individuals of historical or current interest that are sensitive to differences of interpretation among those of varying political persuasions were found to be the main contributors to the Index.
In brief
- Readers rush to Wikipedia after singer's death: In the aftermath of death reports for English jazz vocalist Amy Winehouse, the late singer's Wikipedia article saw a surge in attention, with 4.8 million page visits on the day of her death and 2.3 million the following day. This marks the third-highest daily hit-rate in Wikipedia records, behind Osama bin Laden and Michael Jackson.
- Will the article feedback tool ruin Wikipedia?: Mat Honan at Gizmodo thinks the Article Feedback Tool "won't work" and is "ripe for abuse", echoing a frequent complaint—that users "are going to give subjects they don't agree with shitty ratings just to express disapproval, even when the stories are accurate".
- The climate wiki anyone can't edit: The Guardian's Environment Blog has an article by Leo Hickman on the launch of a new wiki focused on climate change by the Heartland Institute, a US free-market think tank. ClimateWiki promises to "help everyone from high school students to scientists working in the field to quickly find the latest and most reliable information on this important topic". Hickman invited two critics of the global warming skeptics to submit material by email. Perhaps unsurprisingly, their contributions have not made it onto the site.
- PBS covers ambassadors program: Educator Anne Nelson wrote a concise overview of the university ambassador initiative for American public broadcaster PBS.
- Wikipedia article takes centre stage: The New York Post reports that Brownsville Bred, an off-Broadway autobiographical one-woman show about growing up in Brownsville, Brooklyn, opens with a projection, on a sheet hung from a clothesline, of the text of the Wikipedia article about that New York City neighborhood, shown over video footage of the neighborhood's housing projects.
- Oral Citations Project in India: The Bangalore Mirror has an article discussing the Oral Citations Project, a pilot program to look into countering systemic bias by documenting Indian society with audio and video and to test whether the current situation where printed texts are "privileged" in the citation system can be reversed. See this week's News and Notes for more information.
For god's sake, Wikipedia is not a "social media site". It's an encyclopedia. Yes, we cover popular things, often very well, but at the very least very thoroughly. Yes, some people do use their talk pages as chat boards or "walls", although that's technically frowned upon. Yes, the WMF has shown a desire to make Wikipedia more like a social network by implementing or planning to implement such features as WikiLove and the MoodBar, even though WikiLove has stirred some resentment, and if the WMF bothered to properly ask Wikipedia about MoodBar, it would get even more opposition than Wikilove. But, as I just said above, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. The purpose of the talk pages is to facilitate collaboration and help run the project. As long as people keep lumping Wikipedia in with such nonsensical timesinks as Facebook and Twitter, Wikipedia will never be as trusted or respected as it deserves.

- For god's sake, Wikipedia is not a "social media site". It's an MMORPG :-) --Slashme (talk) 14:53, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- On a mostly unrelated note, I echo Mat Honan's statement. I think that the Feedback tool, while spawned from the desire to get inside the heads of readers (a good idea), is implemented in a way that will produce little constructive feedback. A better idea would be to attach a comment box to the tool, and then have volunteer editors filter though the comments, filter out useless "8==D" style comments, sort the rest, and pass their findings onto the foundation. Insight on why a reader gives something 2 stars is more valuable than the simple knowledge that a reader clicked the two stars button. Sven Manguard Wha? 04:24, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
- There's a VP thread about MoodBar here, as noted there, it has nothing to do with "making Wikipedia more like a social network"; it's simply a tool for collecting microfeedback about annoyances, frustrations and other elements of the new user experience. As explained in the VP thread, this first deployment is a minimal test to examine the S/N ratio of the collected feedback. We should find out pretty quickly whether this approach generates useful data or not.
- Similarly, with AFT, the feedback tool simply represents a first view of what a tool like this can be used for. You can see that we've been thinking about many possible different future directions for this tool on mw:Article feedback/Extended review, including extended comments and meta-moderation of those comments. I wouldn't discount the value of the data that it's currently collecting, and which is available for further digging into here, but I agree that free text comments are the logical next frontier for the tool.--Eloquence* 22:43, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
- The experience of Reddit has been that no amount of pleading will stop people from downvoting things they disagree with. One interesting idea is to give the user two votes, one for article quality and one to express approval/disapproval of the topic. A possible further refinement would be to discount votes on quality by voters who always mark articles they disagree with as low quality and always mark articles they agree with as high quality. Guy Macon (talk) 00:09, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- The existence of multiple rating categories, instead of one, is partially designed to counter or detect rating bias. For example, you could look for raters who rate in extremes across categories, or specifically look for raters who rate articles both as 1 in "objectivity" (a rating category that is more likely to elicit approval/disapproval) and in "well-written" (a rating category that should be fairly independent of the rater's view on the topic).--Eloquence* 02:07, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Of course it's a social media site. Anywhere people gather is social; Wikipedia has a society; and we are definitely in the media business. Powers T 20:16, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Aaron Swartz
While I'm not criticizing this part of the story, as it's been widely echoed in the media, just as a comment it's not clear to me if it's actually true that "JSTOR have said they ... have asked the US Attorney's Office to not pursue criminal charges against Swartz". The JSTOR statement is very legalistic, and I've dealt with enough lawyers and PR flacks to be suspicious of their phrasing. -- Seth Finkelstein (talk) 23:06, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
- What else could they mean? -- Ϫ 12:04, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- They could mean merely that they aren't ones who do the criminal prosecution (the government does), which is quite different from asking not to prosecute. For the Federal government to undertake such a prosecution against the expressed wishes of the main victim is possible, but it's odd enough to wonder about JSTOR's PR. Note their statement does not say "have asked the US Attorney's Office to not pursue criminal charges against Swartz". You might think it says that, but close inspection shows it does not in fact say that anywhere. Which is a good signal to wonder if one is being fed a PR line. -- Seth Finkelstein (talk) 12:54, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- It's interesting to note that BLP concerns (hysteria?) don't seem to reach The Signpost. That's kinda refreshing.
— V = IR (Talk • Contribs) 03:39, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
- I think Aaron Swartz is popular enough with the sort of person who edits Wikipedia that his biography page will be treated well. This does not provide any guidance for the general case, especially someone NOT popular with that sort of person. -- Seth Finkelstein (talk) 12:30, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
- To my mind, this comment is really illustrative of the problems that we continue to have dealing with the BLP policy. It seems as though, since Swartz is "one of our own", that we're not as concerned with "protecting" him. Contrast that viewpoint with what's going on surrounding the Anders Behring Breivik article and it's pretty clear that there is a (rather severe) double standard in the community when it comes to dealing with BLP articles.
— V = IR (Talk • Contribs) 21:20, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
- I look at it from the other direction - just as a statement of fact, he's both at low risk from people wanting to use Wikipedia to attack him, and has a high likelihood of being defended against any attacks which happen to be made. Of course there's favoritism, and that's wrong. I'm not approving of it. I'm simply saying he's one of the favorites. -- Seth Finkelstein (talk) 23:15, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Comments about Misti Alpaca Tonos Worsted Discontinued Colors:
First, the service and delivery from Webs in amazing. I am always so happy with them.This yarn is absolutely gorgeous.... it is all that you ever wanted a worsted weight yarn to be. I love love love this yarn and will definitely be reordering more of it. I expected the yarn to have a little bit more different tones of greens (I got the mint one) but it really has only 2 shades of green to it but it is nonetheless so yummy that I will get more of this yarn. It is beautiful to knit with... I can't put it down. It is soft and the stitch definition is gorgeous. I am super happy with it. One of my very favorite yarn. Misti Alpaca is my favorite company as far as yarn is concerned I am always the happiest with this company.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Ruby is really fuchsia
By Kim
from Fort Collins, CO
I had really wanted something that was redder, and the image online made me think that this was red but its really fuchsia. This is a gift for a friend and fuchsia isn't the right color for her project, but I will keep it for something else. I gave it four starts instead of five mostly because of the color problem, but unlike my friend, I think its beautiful! :)
Great overall yarn.
By daufuskie Island knitter
from Daufuskie Island, SC
I was disappointed with one of the skeins. The yarn was so tangled that I was unable to use the ball winder. It took almost 4 hours to unravel, remove the tangles and eventually by hand roll the yarn into a ball. I lost a lot of yarn in the proces and was very unhappy. The other 3 skeins were perfect. That is why I only gave the yarn 4 stars.
yummy colors and so soft
By Susan the lace knitter
from CT
I have bought numerous hanks of this yarn and am always so happy with it. I love the colors it comes in because there are both pastels and darker colors to please all tastes. It knits up beautifully every time and is always consistently nice.Webs is so prompt, efficient and courteous.

Luscious yarn!
By Jenn
from NC
I was hesitant at first to try this yarn but am so glad I did! It's absolutely delivious to work with, soft and has a beauiful drape. I was worried that the color variation would look odd, but it's so well dyed that the knitted fabric just looks dappled, like rippling water. Love it! I'll be buying more in the future.
love those beautiful tonal colors
By Susan the obsessed knitter
from Ct
I have purchased this yarn more than once in the last two years. I love its softness and the fact that it has great stitch definition. Usually alpaca has sort of a fuzzy/ hairy appearance but this yarn is beautiful. I will definitely buy it again.

Yum, yum, yum
By Sherry
from Longview, WA
I love this yarn. It is super-soft non-hairy alpaca and super-soft wool. The tonal dying is beautiful. The texture of the yarn is really nice for cables. If you are looking for a hard-wearing work-horse of a yarn, this isn't it (soft, squishy yarns tend to pill a bit), but for a medium-wearing yarn it's terrific. There is enough wool in this yarn to keep the alpaca from growing and stretching out-of-control. I have made hats that kept their size, and bought a sweater quantity this time. Misti Alpaca Tonos is one of my very favorite yarns to knit with, and the luxurious finshed pieces are always appreciated.

U.S. defense contractors were full participants in the last election cycle
Posts Tagged: Bush administration
Many see self-interest behind U.S. claims to be upholding high moral principles, and they also see hypocrisy in the U.S. government's reluctance to be bound by the same instruments it is so ready to apply to others.
Even other Persian Gulf countries have moderated their positions toward Saddam in light of his ostentatious and highly popular condemnation of Israel's violent retaliation against the new Palestinian Intifada.
While Latin America may be off the maps of key political pundits, the Bush administration faces immediate and extremely important policy challenges that will shape U.S.-Latin American relations over the course of President Bush's tenure in the White House
For those who see George W. Bush as a dummy, the question is, who are his ventriloquists?
A Bush presidency portends a return to the blatantly anti-African policies of the Reagan-Bush years, characterized by a general disregard for black people and a perception of Africa as a social welfare case.
Bush and his East-European ties
The U.S. has a long history, spanning both Republican and Democratic administrations, of advocating openness and accountability at the IFIs.
There is little in the above record to suggest a major departure in Middle East policy when Bush takes office in January.
Foreign policy issues were mostly an afterthought during the 2000 presidential campaign, and they continue to take a back seat in President-elect George W. Bushs discussions of the priorities of his incoming administration.

Posted on 02/03/2004 5:57:13 AM PST by vannrox
Rock discovery causes excitement
The stone weighs 30 tonnes and is about 17 feet high An ancient rock covered in carved symbols has been discovered in a South American jungle by an archaeologist from Cornwall.
Julien Chenoweth, from St Mawes, said a date test showed the carvings were as old as ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.
The rock was discovered by Mr Chenoweth after he led an expedition through the Darian area of the Panama jungle, with a party which also included medic Jo Lloyd-King, from Camborne.
A previous archaeologist had been told about the sacred stone by a native Indian, but until now attempts to locate it had failed.
Julian Chenoweth led an expedition through the Panama jungle
The rock has been dated to 3,000 BC. It weighs 30 tonnes and is about 17 feet (5.18 metres) high.
Mr Chenoweth, who works with the Scientific Exploration Society, said he would now write a report on the carvings for the government and he then expected it to attract international attention.
"There is nothing else like it in the area," he said.
"It raises all sorts of questions on what people were doing there, but until more research is done in this area and whether there is a possibility of more rocks like this being found, it is impossible to say what it means."
Mr Chenoweth said it was hard for him, as a Cornishman, to try and say what the Central American culture was saying, but he added: "I believe the rock is a ceremonial place or a boundary marker for a tribe's territory
"'Here may be found the last words of Joseph of Arimathea. He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the Holy Grail in the Castle of aaaaaagggh'."

Young Earth Creationists?
Oh no. It's the legendary Black Beast!
Archaeologists have the most active (nutty) imaginations. They are followed closely by astronomers.
We need to call in the experts at this sort of thing; Pat Sajak and Vanna White.
I get the impression that often when some ancient thing or place is described as having a 'ceremonial' significance, that they really mean to say "we have no idea what it's for".
It means there might be more rocks....
You are correct. But more than that, how about when they say "religious significance?" That also seems to explain away the "we have no idea what it's for." When "religious significance" is used, folks appear to be intimidated to disagree (or laugh).
as well........
It could be one of her GALL stones...
I had that in mind when I wrote my post, but the lack of coffee in the house won over my properly enumerating the thought.
There was a really funny article somewhere, years ago, about archaelogists with that same catch-all mindset analyzing the remnants of our civilisation. They decided that toilets must have been altars of some kind, and the incantation "Santised for your protection" was evidence of some sort of especially significant rite. Wish I could find a copy of it. I think it was in the New Yorker in the 70s.

Can anyone explain why this page:
does not always display correctly on some versions of IE.
It works fine in Firefox, Opera and Konqueror.
In IE the text wraps round from the bottom to the top, overlapping with the text that should be at the top. The text that does this is simply paragraphs within a div. The theme is a modified version of Mike Little's Journalized.
I have had the same problem with the four pages linked to from here:
I have been struggling with this for some time, and would really appreciate any help.

Empty Netter Assists - 05-28-12
-Are Penguins tickets getting too expensive?-Happy 63rd birthday to former Penguins goaltender Gary Inness (right). A free agent signing in the 1973 offseason, Inness spent parts of three seasons with the Penguins. In 1973-74, Inness appeared in 20 games and had a record of 7-10-1 with a 3.26 goals against average. During 1974-75, Inness took over as the team's top goaltender and responded by appearing in 57 games with a 24-18-10 record, a 3.09 goals against average and two shutouts. In nine postseason games that spring, Inness was 5-4 with a 2.67 goals against average. After appearing in 23 games and going 8-9-2 with a 4.06 goals against average in 1975-76, Inness was dealt to the Flyers in exchange for Bobby Taylor and Ed Van Impe. In 100 regular season games with the Penguins, Inness had a record of 39-37-13 with a 3.37 goals against average.
-Happy 62nd birthday to former Penguins forward Errol Thompson. Acquired midway through the 1980-81 season in a deal which sent Gary McAdam to the Red Wings, Thompson finished his 10-year NHL career by appearing in 34 games and recording 14 points for the Penguins. He was released during the 1982 offseason. Thompson is one of three former Penguins (John Chabot and Bob Stewart are the others) from Prince Edward Island.-Happy 60th birthday to former Penguins defenseman Jack Lynch (right). A second-round pick of the club in 1972, Lynch spent parts of two seasons in Pittsburgh. In 1972-73, he appeared in 47 games and recorded 19 points as a rookie. Durin g1973-74, he played in 17 games and recorded seven points for the Penguins before being dealt to the Red Wings along with Jim Rutherford in exchange for Ron Stackhouse. In 64 regular season games with the Penguins, Lynch scored 26 points.
-Happy 66th birthday to former Penguins forward Ted Snell. A free agent in October of 1973, Snell spent one seasons in Pittsburgh. In 1973-74, Snell appeared in 55 games and recorded 16 points. In the 1974 offseason, he was claimed by the Kansas City Scouts in the expansion draft.
-Happy 33rd birthday to former Penguins forward Matt Hussey. A ninth-round pick in 1998, Hussey spent parts of two seasons with the Penguins. In 2003-04, Hussey appeared in three games and recorded three points. Following the 2004-05 lockout, Hussey saw action in 13 games in 2005-06 and recorded one assist. In the 2006 offseason, he signed with the Red Wings. Hussey spent this past season with Straubing Tigers of the DEL in Germany.

I really loved the Hemingway theme, and I made my own version of it, with some features added.
Here I am releasing it to all of you, so you can make it better.
Enjoy !
I really loved the Hemingway theme, and I made my own version of it, with some features added.
Here I am releasing it to all of you, so you can make it better.
Enjoy !
Has anyone tried this theme yet, I am waiting for some feedback please.
Sadish: Haven't tried it yet, but I'll have to. Quite a nice change to the theme. Very very nice looking. The only challenge with a theme like this is getting people to read more than just the front page (unless you're REALLY good at openings -- and I find myself lacking in that department), and hoping people can "figure out" how to use the page. (I don't know how many times people have complained to me that most blogs, though obvious in their functionality to bloggers, are had to figure out. I tried a hack-meat solution on my own blog -- putting up instructions -- but I'm not sure how to get around this particular issue.)
All that aside, good job, and I can't wait to give it a whirl.
"are had to figure out" = "are hard to figure out", but with a Boston accent. Yeah, that's it, Boston.
think it's a bit bland, but the layout and such is great! just would look better with other colors
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Yeah, I know it can be a lot more 'brighter', but I need to give atleast some pleasure of conversion to you as well. isnt it ? ;)
and gnorb: you can also set it to present the full posts, on the home page. just change the_excerpt to the_content() on the index.php and see how it looks.
hi! modified it a bit, nice and sleek silverish:
Hey It looks so nice.
One thing though. the ancillary page at the bottom, at first shows a black color and then it changes to the normal colour. just look around and see where you have something like background:#000 url(...);
good work, keep tweaking.
If you think the footer text is getting too long, you could say,
with hemingway bright flavor.
there, all changed. any other ideas? maybe you would like to show the redesign on wpthemes.info :P
Looks good.
hey, trying to make the header and nav bar look like the one from the drunkey love theme
I am not as big a Hemingway fan as I use to be.I find the theme to be lacking a lot of WordPress functionality right out the box, and just like the above poster, Hemingway in particular tends to leave regular folk confused.I used the theme for 24 hours and scrapped it.
I love this theme. Mostly for the simplicity in look and feel as well as the multi column approach. I've been working on something similar, but I never got it to work as perfectly as this, so I'm going to stop development efforts and simply port this to my regular site once I get a couple last things figured out. You can see my version of it at http://test.systematicHR.com
I haven'r rolled it out yet for 3 reasons:
Thanks for the great mod the Hemingway. I love the columns and as you can see, I brigtened it up even more than you had it before!!!
Glad to see you are making it more elegant. hope you are enjoying it as much as i did, when i did the conversion.
hello Sadish,
I really appreciate that you made your own theme. But i have a question, i would luke to have the two columns of posts in my default wordpresstheme ... can you explain to me how i can do this...?
Thank you
What I'd do (though I might be from the old fashioned learning generation) - so, I'd download the theme, dissect every line of code of it until I understand what's going on... and then apply it to my favorite theme. Not excluded though, it wouldn't work with my "favorite".
Each post is presented within the 'div'

some post contents

as you go through the loop, Hemingway adds another class to every 2nd post.

some post contents

and in the stylesheet, you define 'second' to float right.
I hope I am making sense, if not, as moshu said, try to digg into the code with the above idea in your head.
you will soon figure it out.
Has anyone hemi-powered a non hemi theme? I was thinking the new fresh themes bottom bar could use hemi-power. Anyone willing to try such a thing?
don (el paso)
Nice one! I'll have to try it then sadish.. thanks again for another wonderful theme! ;)

She was just a girl when the future duke saved her from certain tragedy.
But his search for a suitable bride will end with a swift seduction that makes her every inch a woman.
About the Author
Julianne MacLean fell in love with some of the classic romances—Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and Pride and Prejudice—while completing her degree in English literature. Then she decided that she needed a "real job," but after a brief stint as a government auditor, she realized she just didn't care enough about numbers matching up. So a month before her wedding, she sat down and wrote the first paragraph of a romance. Now fifteen years, a husband, and a daughter later, Julianne is a happy, fulfilled, stay-at-home mom and a devoted romance writer.

This dissertation consists of a set of three manuscripts exploring features of effective professional development (PD) for science teacher educators. Literature about context-specific PD for science teacher educators is sparse. The first manuscript, a literature review, outlines theoretical lenses through which PD can be understood, the features of effective PD, reviews existing literature on science teacher educators, and makes recommendations about next steps for research. The second manuscript is a mixed methods study that analyzed an array of approaches to professional development for their effectiveness and viability in the context of the Science Education Faculty Academy (SEFA). SEFA was an annual weeklong PD experience for science teacher educators in Virginia. A total of 44 SEFA participants over five years were exposed to a variety of content and session formats. Data consisted of Likert and open-ended survey responses, phone interviews, and on-site observations of SEFA sessions. Quantitative data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics, while qualitative data were analyzed using analytic induction. Participants showed significant gains in their self-perceptions related to understanding and ability to implement reform-based pedagogies; most gains were maintained after one year. Interviews and follow-up surveys revealed a variety of products and collaborations resulting from participation in SEFA. The third manuscript of the set is a qualitative study exploring the vexation and venture model for science teacher educator PD. For the vexation and venture portion of SEFA, participants prepared a text about their issues related to the topic of high-stakes standardized testing and proposed solutions. This text served as a basis for professional discussions during SEFA. Participant-generated texts, phone interviews and field observations were analyzed using constant comparative analysis. Results indicated consensus around the issues participants faced, but a wide variety of proposed solutions. Following SEFA discussions, participants expressed greater agency in effecting change within the state and national policy arenas with regard to the issue of standardized testing. A concluding chapter to the dissertation synthesizes a comprehensive approach and makes recommendations for future science teacher educator PD derived from the contents of all three manuscripts.

R.; Alleau, Y.; Koley, D.; Colwell, F.; Torres, M. E. Prevention of wellbore CO₂ leakage is a critical component of any successful carbon capture, utilization, and storage program. Sporosarcina pasteurii is a bacterium that has demonstrated the potential ability to seal a compromised wellbore through the enzymatic precipitation of CaCO₃. Here we investigate the growth of S. pasteurii in a synthetic brine that mimics the Illinois Basin and on Mt. Simon sandstone encased in Class H Portland cement under high pressure and supercritical CO₂ (PCO₂) conditions. The bacterium grew optimum at 30 °C compared to 40 °C under ambient and high pressure (10 MPa) conditions; and growth was comparable in experiments at high PCO₂. Sporosarcina pasteurii actively induced the biomineralization of CaCO₃ polymorphs and MgCa(CO₃)₂ in both ambient and high pressure conditions as observed in electron microscopy. In contrast, abiotic (non-biological) samples exposed to CO₂ resulted in the formation of surficial vaterite and calcite. The ability of S. pasteurii to grow under subsurface conditions may be a promising mechanism to enhance wellbore integrity.

The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are a recent set of standards that leverage decades of research to present an innovative and coherent image for K 12 science education in the United States. Major themes in the NGSS include the intertwining of learning and doing science, addressing connections across scientific disciplines, developing coherent learning progressions across the K-12 spectrum, integrating engineering, and coordinating science standards with the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Mathematics (Bybee, 2014; Pratt, 2013). An additional key focus of the standards, particularly relevant to this study, is providing students the opportunity to engage in the practices authentic to the discipline of science (Xiang & Passmore, 2014). However, developing teaching practices that embrace this ambitious orientation toward science teaching and learning will require a significant shift of instructional practices for many teachers (Reiser, 2013). This study, presented as two manuscripts, explores the beginning of the implementation process in a K-12 school district by characterizing teachers' response to the NGSS, and the ways in which that response is systemically mediated. The first manuscript studies and characterizes teachers' classroom practice in light of the adoption and implementation of the NGSS in a K-12 school district. Classroom observations were conducted over a two-year period guided by the Practices of Science Observation Protocol (P-SOP) (Forbes, Biggers, & Zangori, 2013) to characterize the ways in which teachers provided students opportunities to engage in scientific practices. Findings discussed in this manuscript include patterns of teachers' classroom practice as it relates to the inclusion of scientific practices, and the activity structures teachers used to facilitate student participation in scientific practices. Notable patterns include the prevalence of some dimensions of scientific practice, and the limited occurrence of other dimensions of practice. Additionally, some classroom activity structures were found more likely to be used by teachers to engage students in scientific practices than others. Implications of these findings regarding opportunities for teacher learning related to the NGSS are also discussed. The second manuscript documents and describes the unfolding of the NGSS in the school district, and explores the ways in which the complex work of negotiating the implementation of the new standards by teachers is systemically mediated. Using qualitative research methods and cultural historical activity theory (CHAT) (Engeström, 1987), component parts of activity systems were identified that influenced teachers' work related to the NGSS. Using a third-generation CHAT framing, tensions among the activity systems' levels were identified that influenced the outcome as teachers' negotiated the NGSS, and its potential influence on their classroom practice. Main findings include the identification of three levels of activity systems that impact teachers' response to the NGSS. Further, tensions among the differing objects of activity systems, and tensions regarding key points of contact among the levels of activity systems were found to mediate teachers' response to the standards. Implications of these findings for facilitating the implementation of the NGSS are also discussed. Graduation date: 2016 2016-05-23T00:00:00Z Sparking Engagement in Science Education: A Study on Implementing the Ambitious Science Teaching Framework http://hdl.handle.net/1957/59094 Sparking Engagement in Science Education: A Study on Implementing the Ambitious Science Teaching Framework Migliaccio, Tyson While student teaching at West Valley High (a pseudonym), I noticed that the teaching style my students were used to didn't seem to offer students many opportunities to engage with the content and come to deep understandings. Mainly, the class seemed centered around lecture on a topic and confirmatory activities. I wondered how effective the Ambitious Science Teaching (AST) framework would be at engaging students by offering more opportunities for engagement. To test the effectiveness of AST, I taught two units on biology one with the traditional teaching style my students were used to and one using the AST framework. At the end of each unit, I conducted a quick survey of the class to measure their engagement in different ways. After comparing student engagement between a traditional style unit and an AST unit, it was obvious through student curiosity and thirst to learn that the later was much more effective at engaging students. In the future, I will try to implement AST practices as much as possible if it results in such engagement of my students. 2016 2016-06-02T00:00:00Z

The two leads spend a lot of their time doing static interviews, in a format familiar from TV shows like "The Office." This glorified narration gets old, fast.
If you're watching this film and waiting for something funny or insightful to come along to assuage your annoyance, you'll wait a long time.
A bit slight, often funny, mostly likable, and importantly, a romantic comedy that is not obnoxious.

How come S.C. gas prices lower?
Published: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 28, 2008 at 9:37 p.m.
To The Editor: Can anyone explain why gasoline prices are 15 to 25 cents less per gallon the moment you cross the South Carolina state line?
Is this a matter of North Carolina taxes or are North Carolina merchants simply gouging us Tar heels?
I find myself waiting until I need to go to Greenville to purchase my gasoline whenever I can, which, of course, drains funds from the local economy.
It simply doesn't make sense to me. Can you shed any light on the subject?

Café Dupont
by FN 5:41 PM 1 comments
Washington, DC 20036
My mom loves Julia Child. She's seen Julia and Julia several times and her go-to recipes for almost anything begins and ends with Julia Child. Her and I have spent countless holidays making Julia's tarte tatin recipe. I don't even know if that's the proper title but that's what it's called in my family. So, when I saw that some restaurants in DC were celebrating Julia Childs' 100th birthday, we decided to try the prix fixe menu specially for the occasion at Cafe Dupont, located in the Dupont Circle Hotel.
Before the meal started, they brought out a warm loaf of french bread (a bit fatter and thicker than a traditional baguette) in a white paper bag with homemade butter. The bag was a nice touch and got my parents thinking of their trips to France and most notably Paris when they'd buy some freshly baked bread in the morning with some cheese. Those memories came flooding back to me too when I tasted the warm bread with the butter. There was something just a touch off by it. I think I wanted it to be crustier and less chewy. Maybe it was just the thickness of the bread or maybe we just had to wait a bit longer to eat it. Who knows?
The second course was canard a l'orange. This was a duck breast served in thick slices on a bed of chick peas mixed with lardons (i think) along with a chick pea hash. It was surrounded by the traditional orange sauce and a couple of roasted mission figs were placed on the sides. The accompanying wine was a bold pinot noir from cotes des nuits. The chick peas and chick pea hash was definitely a deviation from the traditional potato mash you'd find with this dish but it did provide the same much needed starchiness and sponginess for the the sauce. The duck had that nice rich, fatty flavor and the orange taste was subtler than probably Julia intended but I liked that the duck flavor had center stage. To me, though, it was slightly overcooked and I would've like the skin to be a tad crispier. Oh, and there were roasted figs. They were simply split in half and they were like fruit crack. I could have had about 10 more.
Julia Child would have turned 100 on August 15 or this coming Wednesday. She was a huge culinary influence to many people but more importantly to me, she was a pretty big culinary influence to my mom. It was only appropriate that we celebrate her 100th birthday at a proper 100th birthday celebration. The meal we received at Cafe Dupont, while some elements were a loose interpretation of Julia's classic, was just the type of homage we were looking for. It included rich foods, great wine, and full, satisfied stomachs. Mom even bought Julia's biography, Dearie, that was displayed at the restaurant. Cheers to you, Julia. Thanks for helping teach my mom the love of food she passed along to me.

I remember myself when you shared that story because it is almost similar to mine. Children healthy eating is what my mom really likes so she always bring me to places where there are restaurants that serve nutritious food instead of unhealthy instant food.ReplyDelete
