Molly Saunders, Digital Bear
One of the things I remember best about hot summers is making ice cream with my dad. We use the old wooden ice cream maker that he grew up with. It makes the best ice cream I've ever tasted! Nothing ever comes close to that subtle, just-sweet-enough taste, especially after you've worked so hard to make it.
I've adapted a version of the recipe he has used for more than 40 years so that you can make ice cream with your dad, or so that your children make ice cream with their dad for Father's Day. It could become a really wonderful tradition for your family, too. I also like that making ice cream can double as a science project because it teaches kids about freezing points and how ice and salt react with each other.
Here is what you'll need to make ice cream in a bag. The recipe has been broken down to one serving, so keep that in mind and multiply for each person who wants to make their own (I promise, you will not want to share your ice cream once you taste it.)
Ingredients to make the ice cream:
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
¼ cup half & half
1 T sugar
½ tsp vanilla (I always add a teeny tiny bit more because I really like it.)
Supplies to make the ice cream:
2 quart sized resealable plastic bags
1 gallon sized resealable freezer bag
4 cups crushed ice, or ice from a big bag that you would get at a grocery store or gas station
4-5 T salt (We always use coarse grain sea salt or ice cream salt, but any salt will work okay.)
Gloves, mittens or towels to keep your hands from freezing!
How to make the ice cream:
Mix the ice cream ingredients in a small bowl until you feel the sugar dissolved.
Pour the mixture into one of your quart-sizes bags and seal it after squeezing the air out of it. Then put it in the second bag and seal it the same way, squeezing as much air out of it as possible. Set it aside for a moment.
Open the gallon-size bag and put half of the ice into it and, with your fingers or a spoon, sprinkle half of the salt onto the ice. Gently lay the bag on its side to make the ice spread out enough to slide the quart-sized bags on top of it.
Put the rest of the ice on top of the quart sized bags and sprinkle the rest of the salt on it. (The idea here is to surround the bag of cream with the ice so it gets colder more quickly.)
Squeeze as much air out of the gallon sized bag as possible and seal it well.
Using your gloved hands (I like using gloves best because you can see what's going on in the bags better.) or the towel, shake, rattle and roll the ice cream around until it thickens into ice cream. Depending on how much mixture you put in the bags and how good you are at squeezing the bags it will take about 7-10 minutes.
Last time I made it this way I took out the quart bags a bit early, but it was totally worth it. The ice cream was amazing! (And no, I could not bring myself to share any of it.)
Thank you, dad, for the wonderful ice cream-making memories!
How will you make this Father's Day extra special?

DENVER (AP) - A Denver teen hit by a car while crossing the street near her school remains in intensive care nearly a week after the accident.
The family of 16-year-old Deyondrah Bridgeman told KMGH-TV (http://bit.ly/13DeqcR) Tuesday that they hope the tragedy remind people of the importance of careful driving.
Deyondrah was hit on Colfax Avenue near East High School on Feb. 27. A teacher at an Aurora school, Erin Jackson, is accused of running a red light before hitting the teen and fleeing. She turned herself in the following day and has been released on $25,000 bond.
Deyondrah's family has set up a fund at Wells Fargo for anyone who wants to contribute to her medical bills.

A co-worker and I were just discussing how to upload a bunch of photos to Flickr, but only make them viewable by our client so they can start selecting favorites for an ad.
You can make any Set of photos and or any single Flickr photo private. That makes the photos in that Set only viewable by you. First step complete.
Flickr has a feature called Guest Pass. This feature generates a URL that bypasses the privacy of that item. Give this URL out to anyone you would like to see that item, even though it's marked private.
Easy. We now upload photos to a private Flickr Set, and give a Guest Pass to our client so they can begin making selects.

SNOWMASS VILLAGE --For 20 years, Susan McNamara has owned and operated Wildflowers on the second floor of the Snowmass Village Mall next door to the Snowmass Village Salon.
Months ago, it looked as if Wildflowers was going to close because of the Silvertree remodeling into a Westin hotel. A large ski-tuning operation moved into the former space of the salon, and the salon moved into the space Wildflowers had occupied for nearly 20 years.
A solution was found, and three former storage spaces for the Silvertree and old Cowboy's restaurant were converted into Wildflowers' new home "with a lot of blood, sweat and tears," according to
Wildflowers was originally located in Aspen in the old Hotel Jerome, and it was owned by Susan Brady. McNamara began working for Brady when she arrived in the Roaring Fork Valley in 1980. She and husband Michael McNamara had moved to Aspen to housesit a blue Victorian at the top of Red Mountain for her husband's sister, and she got a job at Wildflowers five days after moving here.
"I had never been a florist before I started at Wildflowers," McNamara said, "but I had a green thumb, in fact two of them, and I liked flowers."
In 1983, Brady was ready to move on from Wildflowers, and she presented McNamara with a proposition: Either go on unemployment or buy the business. McNamara bought Wildflowers and moved it to the Ajax Mountain building.
When the florist that owned the small flower space at the Silvertree Hotel in Snowmass suddenly moved away, they offered the space to McNamara, who had previously been working with the Silvertree's conference services department to provide flower arrangements at the Snowmass Conference Center.
"The parking and the rent in Aspen was something I didn't like," McNamara said. "Most of my business is over the phone, so when the Silvertree offered the space to me with a good deal on the rent, I moved to Snowmass."
Susan's longtime friend Kerry Scrivens has been Wildflowers' manager for 30 years.
"Susie encouraged me to move to Aspen in 1981," Scrivens said. "We worked together in the '70s in a little country inn in Vermont and have been good friends ever since."
When McNamara isn't in the shop, she likes to get out and ski, hike, raft or garden.
"The mountains are one of the things about Snowmass that I love," said McNamara. "And it's so easy to pop out and ski or hike for an hour."
She and her husband Michael, who is a builder and works as a bartender at Krabloonik, have a 15-year-old son Chris, as well as Abby, a friendly blond Labrador. They live in Snowmass Village because she finds it easier to live and work in Snowmass, and then drive into Aspen for deliveries.
Michael built the new Wildflowers shop along with Susan. They used reclaimed barn wood on the walls, while the floor is constructed from recycled tires.
According to McNamara, about 75 to 80 percent of Wildflowers' business is call-in. The rest is walk-in. Many of their call-in
orders are referrals from Snowmass hotels or lodges.
Wildflowers is open year-round. "People don't stop having birthdays or anniversaries because it's the offseason," said Scrivens.
Not too surprisingly, the biggest holiday for flowers is Valentine's Day.
"One day is like two weeks of Christmases, and you can't be a day late," said McNamara.
Wildflowers gets its flowers from wholesalers in Denver, and they have them flown in from flower-growing regions like Columbia, Ecuador, Holland, Hawaii and California. When possible, they use Colorado flowers like sunflowers and peonies from producers in Palisade.
When they are filling an order, they begin by asking several questions: What's the occasion? How much do you want to spend? Do they have a favorite flower or a favorite color? From there, McNamara and Scrivens get to work. One of the first decisions is what container to use for the arrangement. The particular occasion and what flowers are in the cooler also dictate what the arrangement is going to look like.
"Asking the right questions lets us get a feel for what the client wants," Scrivens said.
While some Snowmass clients might come in and spend several hundred dollars on an arrangement, the ladies at Wildflowers do not want to alienate the local service worker who might only have $20 to $30 to spend, so they will work with them to give the best service possible.
McNamara is betting that Wildflowers will be in Snowmass for years to come. She recently signed a long-term lease with Starwood, which owns and operates the Westin Hotel and the associated retail businesses.
Steve Alldredge is a former associate editor/reporter for the Snowmass Sun. He now runs a local communications company whose clients include Related Colorado. He can be reached at email@example.com.

From camp counselor to coolest babysitter ever, here are 8 ways you can still have fun this summer (and get paid for it).
By Guest Blogger Charmaine Ng I UNIVERSITY OF OREGON:Ambitious and talented, honest and human, this tri-lingual social media strategist and curator is also a published author. Harbors a secret desire to one day have a multi-hyphenated title.
So okay. You're getting tired of hearing about the cool things your friends are doing this summer while your days seem to be filled with a whole lot of nothing. Well, summer may be half over, but it's not too late to take advantage of the weeks you have left. Here are eight ways to have some summer fun – and get paid for it.
1. Lead the way into the woods as a camp counselor. Disconnect yourself from your phone, and jump into the outdoors with kids! Sure, there's a lot of potential for stress, but think of it as a mini vacation – with pay.
2. Lounge by the pool as a lifeguard. Well, you won't really be lounging all the time. There's real work involved. But hey, you'll have an amazing tan!
3. Live in crowds of retail. This time of year lots of department stores and other retailers are hiring part-timers for the back-to-school rush. You'll work hard for the money, but if you've got stamina and people skills, this is a job made for you. (The benefits aren't bad either: 40% employee discount, anyone? Killer red heels, here I come.)
4. Paint. Yes, paint. Houses, fences, window trim – many homeowners like to get these chores done this time of year, before another fall and winter set in. This job won't juice up your intellect, but there's a certain satisfaction in the exacting nature of the work. (You might even make some new friends while you wait for the paint dry.)
5. Become the coolest babysitter ever. If you're looking into a career involving young children, this can be a great way to test your interest in a real-world – a very real-world – situation. Plus, you get to make some young and probably over-worked parents very, very happy.
6. Give back to your community. Homeless shelters and nursing homes always need more hands. Sometimes these jobs pay, sometimes they don't. But the chance to tap into your altruistic side and nurture others in your community can be more than enough reward.
7. Exercise your brain muscles as a tutor. Ah, those poor kids who are consigned to summer school! Help those little suckers out by sharing your knowledge and experience – at an hourly wage that you will most likely get to negotiate.
8. Get that smile on and wait tables. It's tough work, but if you're a people person, the conversations and lively surroundings can make the job fun. The tips aren't half bad, either!
You can take away something from every summer job, so don't waste away these precious months. Get yourself out there!

Dead dolphin found in Venice; fishing gear blamed
Published: Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 5:33 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 11, 2012 at 5:33 p.m.
A local bottlenose dolphin was found dead Saturday in a Venice inlet, apparently killed after swallowing fishing gear.
Biologists with Mote Marine in Sarasota say the female dolphin was 27, relatively young for a dolphin, and are calling the case a reminder for residents and sportsmen to keep waterways clear of fishing line and other litter that could harm marine animals.
The dolphin was found floating in Venice Inlet, between Venice and Casey Key, by an officer from the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office.
Mote staff retrieved the carcass and brought it to Sarasota for a necropsy, or animal autopsy, which suggested the dolphin died from ingesting fishing line. Fishing line was also wrapped tightly around the animal's bleak, likely suffocating the dolphin.
"Except for the fishing line and hook," the dolphin was healthy, Randall Wells, director of the Sarasota Dolphin Research Program, said in a news release.
Mote Marine scientists who study dolphin families in the area had been tracking this particular dolphin, name FB93, since 1985.
"She was one of the largest resident females of Sarasota Bay, at nearly 9 feet long and 471 pounds, and her stomach was full of fish," the release said.

Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades, left, and President of the Parliament Yiannakis Omirou walk toward the parliament following a meeting in capital Nicosia, Cyprus, Monday, March 18, 2013. Cyprus' president is briefing lawmakers ahead of a crucial parliamentary vote on a controversial levy on bank deposits that the cash-strapped country's creditors have demanded in exchange for a euro10 billion (US$13 billion) rescue package.(AP Photo/Petros Karadjias)
NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) -- Cypriot lawmakers have rejected a critical draft bill that would have seized part of people's bank deposits in order to qualify for a vital international bailout.
The bill, which had been amended Tuesday morning to shield small deposit holders from the deposit tax, was rejected with 36 votes against, 19 abstentions and zero votes in favor. One deputy was absent.
Hundreds of protesters outside Parliament cheered in jubilation and sang the national anthem when they heard the bill had not passed.
Cyprus will now have to come up with an alternative plan to raise the money.
If it doesn't, it won't qualify for external rescue loans, the country's banks face collapse and the country could go bankrupt.

Packers' Receiver Donald Driver Retiring
Published: Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 10:47 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 31, 2013 at 10:47 a.m.
GREEN BAY, Wis. | Donald Driver is retiring, with a formal announcement planned next week for the Green Bay Packers all-time leading receiver.
The Packers made the announcement early Thursday. In a statement, Driver says he's always enjoyed a "special bond" with Packers fans, and "can think of no better way to retire than to celebrate with them and the Packers organization." Driver will officially retire Feb. 6 at the Lambeau Field Atrium.
Driver finishes as the Packers all-time leader in yards receiving (10,137 yards) and catches (743), and is third behind Don Hutson and Sterling Sharpe with 61 touchdown receptions. He had seven 1,000-yard seasons, also a Packers record for a receiver.
He turns 38 on Saturday.

Everyone Has a (Yoga) Story
Everyone has a story about why they took their first yoga class and why they keep coming back. Most involve a desire to slow down, release tension, or recover from an injury. Mine is no different.
I took my first step onto the mat to learn how to let go of tension before it turned into an ulcer, as my lifestyle at that time was very fast-paced and stressful. Little did I know that in taking my first step on the mat, I would not only learn how to tune into my breath and strengthen my body, I would learn that I had the power to transform my life by gaining a clearer understanding of the mind-body connection.

Skylights are a great way to fill your home with natural sunlight while saving money and energy at the same time. Skylights can bring in fresh air as well as the natural sunlight. Many skylight systems are made to allow the consumer to install a switch that will open the skylight to let in fresh air. This is also a great way to reduce the heat that is trapped inside the home in the summer months.
Everybody knows that natural light provides beauty and enhancement to any space, whether it is a living space or a work space. Skylights are a great alternative to bring in the beauty of natural light. They are really great in bathrooms and interior rooms where access to natural light is limited or non-existent.
Most people think of skylights as being in an aluminum frame that is installed on top of the roof. There are also tubular skylights that provide the same benefit of natural light but they use a method of redirecting the light through a shaft that is very reflective.
Skylights are the latest trend in green energy because they use glass and natural sunlight to provide light and ventilation to a room. They can either be fixed or mobile, meaning that the mobile ones can be opened and closed to allow natural ventilation into the room.
Skylights are beginning to be key elements in home design. They are a sign of modern architecture at its best. In recent years the number of homes being built with skylights has increased dramatically. Many people in NYC are also opting to add sky lighting to their home to increase their use of natural energy.
Ten years ago it would have been difficult to find skylights in homes like they are now. People just did not appreciate their beauty and effectiveness. Today they can design the roof to accommodate skylights that will provide light to every room in the house if they so desire. More and more people are opting to install skylights in their home because of the energy savings.
The concept of skylights is not a new one. Many years ago Victorian homes were built with windows in the roof of the home because they saw the need for adding as much light into the home as possible. When modern technology came along they got away from installing skylights because it was too easy to put in a light bulb and turn on a switch. With the price of energy at an all time high people are looking back at ways their ancestors lived naturally. Skylights were one way they used to provide more light in homes before they knew anything about electricity.
Decorating the home with windows has a two fold effect. The home has more curb appeal and the inside of the home is brighter and cheaper to power. Today homeowners are installing a variety of window types to help beautify their home both inside and out. It is one of the best ways they can invest their remodeling dollars. These windows on the rooftop can allow about 30% more light into the home during the daytime hours. Many companies are also incorporating this light energy into solar energy that can supplement the lighting in the home at night.
If you choose to install a skylight in your home you should keep in mind that it needs to cover at least 10% of the ceiling space in the room if it is going to be used as a major light source. One consideration is to place a cluster of skylights together to form a grouping that will evenly place light throughout the room. This will provide a perfect place for you to relax and let go of all of the stress you go through each day.

A comic book has supernatural powers in "Origin Story." A freeway warps through time in "Sixty Miles to Silver Lake." A family dinner stretches across generations in "The Big Meal."
The boundaries of time and space are mere playthings in the genre-bending work of Dan LeFranc. The up-and-coming 31-year-old playwright is breaking all the rules with "Troublemaker, or The Freakin Kick-A Adventures of Bradley Boatright."
Welcome to a light-speed farce about a 12-year-old wannabe super hero whose outrageous universe zips from zombies to Nazis. A zany three-act adventure set in a mashup of the '80s and '90s known as "nineteen mighty four," this tween epic is so bold that it almost included a boat chase. The audacious romp has made its world premiere at Berkeley Rep and runs through Feb. 3. LeFranc, who won the New York Times Outstanding Playwright award in 2010, recently ducked out of rehearsals at the Rep to chat about the intrigue of adolescence, the pleasures of epic storytelling and why Berkeley Rep is a good place to embrace craziness.
Q How is the play coming together?
A It's a beast, man. I've never written anything like this. Most of my other pieces are one-acts. This is a three-act, action-packed adventure fantasy. It started out as a grand epic, a spin on the "Odyssey"and "Argonautika," but it's also influenced by Shakespeare and Moliere, and it really moves like a video game.
Q Do you think audiences crave a sense of epic?
A I know for me, I either want it to be 70 minutes that flies by and then we can go to the bar, or else I want it be six or eight hours long, and you pack a sandwich. It's almost like a TV show where you watch a whole season of "Breaking Bad" in one sitting.
Q I hear that. But how do you capture that pulse-pounding, action-adventure vibe onstage without the bells and whistles of film?
A Movies are all about rapid-fire imagery, the stimulation of the eye. There's no way to do that on stage in the same way, but you can throw all of that rapid-fire imagery straight into the mind's eye. It's in the language, that's what the theater can do. And with adolescents, it's almost like they speak in some kind of secret code, their vernacular is so specific. It's like everything they do and say is in hyper-drive.
Q Why do you love comic books?
A I'm a dude. I originally got into comic books and video games as an escape. My parents are great, but my adolescence was not so cheery. I ran away a couple of times. I was the kid who wasn't allowed in other kids' houses because of the language I used. I had a potty mouth. I had my fair share of mayhem. I was a troublemaker. Living in the imagination was an important escape for me.
Q So you relate to your hero Bradley a lot?
A Yeah, I totally relate to him. He's very much me and also my little brother and all the guys I knew growing up.
Q What interests you about adolescence?
A That time in life is so clear to me. It's such an intense time, where everything matters so much, and it feels like the foundations are being laid for the rest of your life.
Q Which comes first for you, the form of the play or the heart of the story?
A It can't be form for form's sake. For me, it's content first. The core of anything you write is the icky stuff about your life and who you are. You're trying to expose something about yourself, but also about everyone else and what it is to be human.
Q Do you ever feel vulnerable about putting such sensitive stuff out there?
A All the time. You're exposed. Your blood is in that thing, and you can't hide. Sometimes you wonder why you do that to yourself. You wonder, "What compels me to do this?" But in the end, I do it because I love it. I do it because I have to.
Q Why was Berkeley Rep the perfect place to give birth to this play?
A The thing I admire so much about the Rep is the history of doing adventurous new work. They don't care if it sounds impossible. At one point, we had a boat chase in the show, and they were down with it. It was insane, and in the end, we cut it because it didn't serve the story, but they were up for it. They like the crazy.

A Quote by deb riechmann on preemptive strikes and war strategy
Bush recounted his strategy for fighting terrorism, saying the United States continues to consider any country that harbors a terrorist to be as guilty as the terrorist being harbored. He was applauded when he discussed his doctrine of preemptive strikes -- attacking enemies abroad before they can attack U.S. soil.

Dianes Spicy Corn Stew with Chunks of Salmon
This warming winter recipe, from the acclaimed cookbook Salmon, by Diane Morgan, comes to us courtesy of DianeMorganCooks.com. As Diane describes it, This colorful meal-in-a-pot needs nothing more than a loaf of crusty bread to make a hearty supper. Add a salad if you like, but the stew is chock-full of vegetables. Making a corn broth from the cobs gives the soup an underlying complex sweet corn flavor. Its an ideal pairing with the salmon, and the addition of a poblano gives the stew a bright chile flavor without being overpoweringly hot. A squeeze of lime and a pungent kick of cilantro are the perfect garnish.
Dianes Spicy Corn Stew with Chunks of Salmon
Serves 6 as a main course
Suggested wine: Spanish albariño or Portuguese alvarinho
6 fresh ears yellow corn, shucked
2 large sweet onions, such as Walla Walla, Vidalia, or Maui
2 tablespoons organic extra virgin olive or macadamia nut oil
8 cups cold water
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive or macadamia nut oil
2 celery stalks, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 large poblano chile, seeded, deribbed, and cut into 1/2-inch dice (see Cooks Note*)
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
2 cups heavy (whipping) cream
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 (6 oz each) skinless/boneless wild salmon fillets, cut into bite-sized pieces
1/4 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime, cut into 6 wedges
*Cooks Note: Poblano chiles are a forest green color tinged with purple and black. They are the size of a small bell pepper but have a pointed bottom. Milder than most other chiles, poblanos still have plenty of spice, with a nice fruity quality as well. They are sometimes labeled as pasilla chiles in the market. Dont confuse them with the milder Anaheim chiles that are lighter green, longer, and more tapered in shape.

An estimated 200 people, including local and state dignitaries, braved a chilly morning Wednesday to witness the long-awaited official opening of the 75,000-square-foot Dierbergs Market in Lakeview Pointe.
The outdoor ceremony, led by Dierbergs CEO Bob Dierberg, included a grand entrance by the School of the Osage High School band followed by the National Anthem. Also on the docket was a patriotic rendition of "Proud to Be An American" by local musician and Osage Beach Police officer Rick Arnall. Performance of the song is a tradition at Dierbergs ribbon cuttings.
Dierberg also introduced State Reps. Diane Franklin and Rocky Miller, city of Osage Beach aldermen and staff and County Commissioners Bev Thomas and Cliff Luber.
Taking part in the actual ribbon cutting were Osage Beach Mayor Penny Lyons and Camden County Presiding Commissioner Kris Franken.
In his remarks, Dierberg said his family-owned company was "proud to be a part of the Osage Beach community." He lauded the support and guidance of the city of Osage Beach and Camden County in making the project happen.
He also thanked the troops, law enforcement and fire departments for their service to the country.
Mayor Lyons said the development was a huge endeavor by Dierbergs and a leap of faith for the city. The market's presence in Osage Beach will be a "huge asset" and will "set the tone for future business" in the city, she said.
Dierberg said two nationally recognized stores will also be coming to Lakeview Pointe. Dick's Sporting Goods will bring a 34,000-square-foot store to Lakeview Pointe this fall, and Bed Bath and Beyond plans to open a 20,000-square-foot store next spring.

In 2010, a cold snap killed nearly 15% of the snook population in the Gulf of Mexico. After a three year closure, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has determined that the population has rebounded sufficiently to allow for the recreational harvest of the fish (starting Sept. 1). Management efforts such as the implementation of a slot limit to protect juveniles and the more productive larger fish are expected to help snook numbers continue to improve. The next stock assessment is scheduled for 2015. Do you think the opening was premature? Has anyone heard how things are going up to this point in the season?

The effort to restore American rivers to their natural flows via the removal of aging dams has reached "movement" status. Just last year, approximately 400 miles of river and stream were restored following the removal of 65 dams in 19 states. So how's it working out for the fish? Click here to read about the return of the chinook salmon to streams located above the former Elwha Dam site. Also, be sure to check out the trailer for Felt Sole Media's upcoming documentary "DamNation." This film takes a broad look at the issue of dam removal.

Germany, 2012, 90 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subject: Drama
Program: Contemporary World CinemaLanguage: German English Sub-Titles
Adele (Maria-Victoria Dragus) is a lonely, depressed teenager living on a bleak farm with her cold and unloving parents after her brother's death. One night, escaped killer Timo (Roeland Wiesnekker) winds up in her room and pleads with her to help get him out of town safely. Adele agrees to do it, but only on one condition: he has to kill her after he's safe from the law, thus freeing her from her hellish life. She tells Timo she's tried to do it herself, but just couldn't manage. As they escape through the German countryside, he's not exactly at ease with her at first, but she's finding his company much more comforting than that of her parents.
German director Emily Atef (The Stranger in Me, SDFF 31) has made Kill Me a clever and intriguing road picture. Adele and Timo learn to coexist, discovering intimate things about each other as they evade capture. Their bond is deepened when Adele learns the details of Timo's case. As their journey continues and they depend on each other for survival, viewers hope that Timo reneges on his end of the deal.

It would be great to be able to draw tangents with ellips and not only with circle.
This would be really usefull for isometric projections as a circle is projected as a ellipse.
It is not a problem for cylindres projection as the tangent needed goes thew the reference point of the ellipse, but for a cone it is not the case.
Or there is a tric I did not found!

'Breaking Bad', Season 5, Episode 14, 'Ozymandias': TV Recap
Tonight's brutal "Breaking Bad" episode, "Ozymandias," was a story of lies and consequences.
Like steam off the bubbles in the beaker, the opening flashback was vaporous and ethereal: The desert was still, a tranquil memory of happier times and benign crimes, of tighty whities and baby names. We were treated to a little classic Walt n' Jesse banter, followed by Walt standing on a desert bluff rehearsing lines for a quick lie, honing his craft of effortless manipulation. Walt's eventual conversation with Skyler ended on a happy note of pizza, a new baby name – Holly – and the mirage of a happy, hopeful future.
With a dreamy dissolve to a more dissonant present, the violence of the Heisenberg Empire finally befell a member of Walt's family. A desperate plea for an $80 Million swap – a nest egg for a life – came to naught. Hank Schrader, the cool professional saw it coming and Walt, the talented novice, had to face it. Then came a bullet to the chest, a nod to "Vertigo," and Walt lying on the ground with his mouth agape – a toothless black cave. Empty.
In the aftermath of Hank's murder, Walt managed to conjure a final punishment for Jesse as his surrogate son was being taken off to whatever abattoir Todd had handy: "I watched Jane Die. I could have saved her, but I didn't." We all knew Jane's death would return, but I always hoped the information would surface at a time when Jesse could do something about it. Jane's death was the moment I broke with Walt. It was his unforgivable sin. And Walt used his sin like a serrated blade in Jesse's body and soul. And now Jesse is stuck, a slave to Todd (who probably scored the only joke in the entire episode: "I'm sorry for your loss."). Bruised and broken he will cook and cook and cook to keep Brock and Andrea safe.
For all the horror of Hank and Gomez's deaths (And they were horrible, especially Gomez. For some reason I've always liked that character. I think it's the appeal of a character seemingly unmotivated by ego, selfishness and greed), the real horror show took place in the White home. Prompted by Marie's revelation of Hank's success (at the time) she extended an olive branch to Skyler who promptly confessed the family business to Walter "Flynn" Jr.. Young actor R.J. Mitte sold the panic and incredulity of a child's world upended.
When the family convened in the living room the final battle lines were drawn. Credit goes to director Rian Johnson (of "Looper" and "Brick" and other episodes of "Breaking Bad" fame) for shooting a breathtaking struggle between Father, Mother and Son. Johnson kept his camera fixated on the knife throughout the fight. At any moment the blade seemed poised to bury itself in Walter, Skyler or Flynn.
But Walt wrestled control and stood over his frightened wife and child, a statue of domestic terror. In the end it wasn't Tucco, the Twins, Gus, Mike, Jack or Hank that sent Walt on the lam. It was his one real son, the son he's practically ignored this entire series in favor of his co-conspirators, who turned on him. And with one frantic and frightened call to 911, Walt's dreams of domestic bliss came to a boil and evaporated.
The episode's climax had Walt running from his home, baby Holly in hand. Since we've seen Walt sans baby in previous flash-forwards, there was always a good chance he planned to relinquish his hostage. Along with the baby, Walt's parting gift to his wife and children was a bitter, necessary pill. Walt, the great deceiver, wove a clean and elegant web for all who listened – especially the police. Over the phone Walt assaulted Skyler, masquerading as a super-villain flying solo, and absolved her of guilt in the eyes of the law. Perhaps he hoped that by doing so he can preserve a shade of the family that once was.
The episode ended with Walt in the mysterious red van, off to find that New Start he trumpeted all night.
I'm guessing he'll be lonely.

Life is slipping away from Texas snowmobiler Caleb Moore after a horrific crash Thursday night at Aspen's Winter X Games. Family of the 25-year-old athlete gathered Monday at St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction.
"Caleb is not doing good at all," Caleb's grandfather Charles Moore told The Denver Post Monday afternoon. "The prognosis is not good at all. It's almost certain he's not going to make it."
If indeed Moore loses his fight, it will mark the first fatality in the 17-year history of the Winter X Games.
Moore was injured Thursday evening during the snowmobile freestyle contest. He under-rotated a back flip and dug the skis of his sled into the lip of the landing.
The 450-pound, heavily modified Polaris snowmobile slammed Moore as he tumbled down the landing ramp, knocking him unconscious. When Moore came to, he was moving and asked his brother and fellow freestyle snowmobile competitor Colten what happened.
He was rushed to Aspen Valley Hospital with a concussion. Doctors there discovered bleeding around his heart and he was helicoptered to Grand Junction's St. Mary's Hospital. Doctors there performed emergency heart surgery Friday morning. Moore was recovering in intensive care for a heart contusion.

PARKERSBURG - Mayor Bob Newell says he remains confident the city would find value in pursuing a baseball feasibility study.
Newell reiterated his desire to explore the idea in his recent "State of the City" address, asking Parkersburg City Council to carefully review information on the proposed project before drawing any conclusions.
"Certainly any project we do has its detractors," he said on Wednesday. "I think there is potential in this, and I've asked council to keep an open mind."

Planners have been studying the construction of a baseball stadium and sports center for a Frontier League baseball franchise. Newell has been a proponent of the plan, which would be led by the Wood County Economic Development Authority.
"It's about more than just baseball," Newell said. "It's all the other activities and events that could be held there."
Newell said Parkersburg is the largest city in the region but does not have a large venue for events. It's central position to cities such as Charleston, Wheeling, Huntington and Columbus mean Parkersburg would have a large area from which to draw potential attendees and events.
City Council President Jim Reed agreed, saying he was in favor of further exploring the idea.
"I think it would be a benefit to the city," he said. "I think it brings more than just baseball. I think it is important to fund this study."
In December, Parkersburg City Council voted to spend $10,000 to assist with a proposed baseball feasibility study.
"What we did as a city was just to fund the study," Reed said. "The Development Authority has really taken the lead on this."
Cam Huffman, executive director of the Wood County Economic Development Authority, did not return a call seeking comment this week. Newell spoke to Huffman Wednesday and said approval of funding for the feasibility study had passed the authority's executive board, but had not yet been brought before the entire board for a vote.
The authority board meets on a quarterly basis, and Newell said Huffman indicated funding for the study likely would go before the full board for a vote in March.
"As soon as they get the money together and sign the agreement, we can see this move forward," Newell said.
Sam Winans, co-chairman of the Wood County Development Authority's sports committee, said he believes the project is moving forward. Officials are working with the McDonough Foundation to draft a grant proposal to help fund the study, he said.
"Once we are done getting all of the funds together we will go ahead and contract with Rooney Sports and have them do part one of the feasibility study," Winans said.
Newell said the first two phases of the feasibility study are estimated to cost about $25,000 each.
"If this doesn't show positive results, there won't be a need for a second phase," he said.
Reed said the challenge will be to convince the public it is a move worth considering. "I think people would enjoy it if they could get past the idea of it being just a baseball stadium," he said.
Newell has said public money would not be used to fund a stadium, and said Wednesday he believes such a project would find many backers in the form of businesses, franchise owners and other supporters.
"They see an opportunity for profit here," he said. "If they didn't they wouldn't be so interested in this area."
"It's not really something for the municipality to take on" funding-wise, Reed said. "Certainly we need to be behind it, but it will have to be privately funded."
Winans said he is still a proponent of the plan.
"I'm a big believer that the Mid-Ohio Valley wants baseball, needs baseball," he said. "We are in hard economic times and baseball is a good bang for your buck. It's all about economic development.
"To me this is a big deal for Parkersburg. It is a big deal for the Mid-Ohio Valley," Winans said. "It's time we get our families out and enjoying some baseball."

Charles Lindbergh and "The Spirit of St. Louis"
Sometimes it's about the prize; but for Charles Lindbergh, it was to prove a point. He wanted to show the world that airplanes could safely fly from the US to Europe.
At 7:52 a.m. on the morning of May 20, 1927, over 500 on-lookers watched as Charles Lindbergh and "The Spirit of St. Louis" lefted off for Paris. Less than 34 hours later, Lindbergh made aviation history by completing the first non-stop transatlantic flight.

EAGLE COUNTY - SnowBall and the town of Avon broke up this year, but remain on friendly terms.
Earlier this week, the Summit Daily News reported that the three-day music festival, which premiered in Avon in 2010, might find a new home in Breckenridge for the 2013 edition.
SnowBall's two years in Avon were popular with fans and many town business owners, and helped boost March sales tax revenues. But the festival was criticized by many of the neighbors around Nottingham Park, and drew criticism for what some perceived as abnormal drug and alcohol use. Nearly 200 people were arrested over the two-year run, more than 140 at this year's event.
"It was the way that Avon approached it," AEG Live director of operations Rob Thomas told the council at Tuesday's meeting. "These same artists play Red Rocks, which is a city-owned venue, all summer long without incident. That's the bottom line with it, is it works at Red Rocks."
But the problems in Avon - along with a pledge from some town lodging managers to never again rent rooms to festival guests - had town officials on the brink of withdrawing their 2013 invitation. Festival promoters pre-empted a possible council vote by announcing they would seek a new site for the event.
This week, SnowBall gained the support of a four-member majority of the Breckenridge Town Council.
"I think we should give this a whirl," Councilman Mike Dudick said at this week's council meeting. "We've all heard of the X Games in Aspen. There was probably a lot of heartburn on that one, and look where they are now."
The council members who opposed hosting SnowBall in Breckenridge said they worried about the event's image and the audience.
Avon officials said they'd be happy to talk about their experiences, good and bad, if anyone from Breckenridge asks.
"If they ask, we'll provide them with our information about crowd dynamics, and we'd certainly share our experiences with arrests, drug use and medical issues," Avon Police Chief Bob Ticer said, adding that he'd be happy to share his department's action plan from this year's event.
Avon Mayor Rich Carroll said he's mostly worried about his town, but said, if asked, he'd have high praise for the concert's team of promoters.
"They'll get a team of experienced, first-class promoters," Carroll said. "I'm sure (Breckenridge's council) will come to the right decision for their town. ... Different events have different fits for communities. SnowBall was not the best event for Avon."
Jim Pavelich, owner of Northside Coffee and Kitchen, said he was sad to hear SnowBall would move.
"It was a good weekend for us," he said.
Pavelich said if asked, he'd advise businesses in Breckenridge to staff up and stock up if SnowBall comes to town.
"Expect to be busier than usual, and to have a great weekend," he said. "Breckenridge would do well to have it."
Summit Daily News reporter Caddie Nath contributed to this story.

NEW BEDFORD — Detectives are looking for a 27-year-old man they believe robbed a man of his lottery winnings Friday night outside a city convenience store, police said.
Detective Capt. Steven Vicente says police have an arrest warrant for Deangelo J. Vaughan, 27, no known address, and asks anyone with information to call police at 508-991-6300, ext. 320.
According to Vicente, a 53-year-old man was walking home from the Lucky 7 store at County and Weld streets after cashing a lottery ticket when Vaughan stopped him and asked for a cigarette and a few dollars. When the victim reached into his wallet, the suspect punched him in the shoulder and the two men struggled over the wallet and its contents.
The victim recalled seeing the suspect enter the store as he was leaving and believes he was followed, Vicente said.

Jerry West has been busy at the NBA draft combine in Chicago the last few days -- he wasn't in Oklahoma City for the meeting Monday night that convinced Steve Kerr to join the Warriors.
But when I reached West on Thursday, he was clearly satisfied with the way the Warriors' coaching search turned out and how it fits into co-owner Joe Lacob's big-picture plan.
"All of us are pleased by this hire," West said of Kerr. "He's someone who has a long history with successful teams. We're just hopeful that he can have the same kind of success here as a coach that he had as a player.
"Being on championship teams, learning from some of the best coaches in this game, his experience as a general manager . . . all of these factors will help him in this job.
"He knows how to build a team and how to maintain a team."
West said executives and others in Chicago for the combine have been giving this move universally positive reviews.
"It's been very well received so far, I can tell you that," West said.
Kerr and West had a long talk Wednesday night, West said, and the Warriors executive board member said that he is confident that Kerr will be able to handle his first coaching job.
Of course, West said, everything is decided by the wins and losses.
"How we do on the court will go a long way towards determining everybody's fate," West said.
"But Joe's said all along that his goal was to make this a great organization and a great team. And I think this is a step closer to getting this organization closer to where he wants it to be."

Five more film highlights from the 33rd annual San Francisco Jewish Film Festival.
"Afternoon Delight": This film by San Francisco director Jill Soloway excels at expressing the unhappy malaise afflicting a rich L.A. couple (Kathryn Hahn and Josh Radnor: both terrific). When they invite a stripper (Juno Temple, suitably street-smart and steamy) into their cushy lives, the bump and grind of everydayness changes, and chaos ensues. Soloway is all over the map in her debut, but this well-acted tone-shifter is certain to get a rise out of you. I liked it, problems and all. (6:30 p.m., Aug. 3, the California, followed by a discussion about the film with Soloway at the David Brower Center, 2150 Allston Way, Berkeley. The film opens in Bay Area theaters in August).
"My Awkward Sexual Adventure": Equally appealing but in a more exuberant puppy dog way, this film is about a lackluster-in-the-sack Jordan (Jonas Chernick, charming) receiving Sex Ed 101 from -- you guessed it -- a stripper! (Emily Hampshire). "Sexual Adventure" is refreshing in its sexual honesty, but a subplot about Jordan's shrewish girlfriend is way overdone and stops the film in its tracks. (And note to writers: Let's put a moratorium on the deployment of strippers.). (9:50 p.m. July 27 at the Castro; 8:45 p.m. Aug. 10 at the Grand Lake, Oakland)
"Gideon's Army": Think your job is tough? Try being a public defender. That's the message of Dawn Porter's gripping documentary about three lawyers in the South committed to providing legal counsel for those who can't afford it. It is fly-on-the-wall observant, with Porter spending most of the time on a pair of cases being handled by two relatively new lawyers. It's a compelling portrait of not just lawyers and the law, but the people they are trying to help. (6:50 p.m. July 26, the Castro; 3:55 p.m., Aug. 10, the Grand Lake)
"In the Shadow": Film noir isn't in vogue like it used to be, but don't tell that to director David Onricek. With this gorgeously shot political thriller set in 1950s Prague, he's mastered the genre. There's a lot of smoke along with suspicion when a detective (Ivan Trojan) investigates a small-time crime and uncovers some big-time corruption. The acting is top shelf, and the screenplay takes time to flesh out the characters and then deliver an ending that socks us in the gut. Love the dramatic music, too. (4:10 p.m., Aug. 3, JCCSF; 8:55 p.m. the California; and 8:10 p.m., Aug. 5, Cinearts).
"Out in the Dark": Michael Mayer's gripping gay romance deservedly took home best first feature honors at this year's Frameline, the San Francisco LGBT film festival. The passionate tale of two lovers -- a Palestinian grad student (Nicholas Jacob) and a lawyer (Michael Aloni) living in Tel Aviv -- is a heartbreaker. Mayer, who also cowrote the screenplay, consistently finds the right tone, making his two leads appealing and human while the cultural and political forces trying to drive them apart are realistic and uncompromising. "Out in the Dark" doesn't shout out its message, and that is exactly why, in the end, it is so sadly powerful. (9 p.m. July 29, the Castro; 8:55 p.m. Aug. 2, the California; 6:35 p.m. Aug. 8, CineArts, Palo Alto).

I heard about this on M&M this morning. I can't remember what source they cited. It could be a good fit. They have serious problems on D and Cowher seems more of a D-oriented guy.
Bus is rarely correct in his comments now off the field.
They aren't about to fire their coach who just recently won for a guy that won 1 in 15 years.
Cowher didn't want to go to Buffalo or Cleveland, which is not surprising. He'd obviously love Carolina. I don't know what he would have done if Washington or Dallas looked his way.
now I remember seeing that the panthers were not going to pick up the option on john fox's contract, so does that mean he may not be back,,,if that is the case than would it not be a slam dunk shoe in that cowher takes the carolina job.....the panthers come here next year, I would think that would be a primetime game
I don't know why anyone in Cowher's current position would want to put himself in New York. I totally get that the payoffs (both financially and career-wise) are potentially great, but so is the chance for scrutiny.
I would assume Cowher is waiting for the Carolina gig. NC State guy. Living in Raleigh. Current coach heading into last year with the team looking bad. Cowher could become governor of NC if he wins in Charlotte.
Cowher though people would be all over him the minute he said he would go back into coaching. Uhhh no one but the Bills cared not even the Redskins who a while back were supposedly going to offer him 10 mill/season. Seems that he's getting a taste of reality here.
ours is not to wonder why just invert and multiply...
Cowher never said that he's going back into coaching. Nor did he say that he wasn't going to go back into coaching. He worked with the best owner in the NFL for so long, he's waiting for another opportunity with an owner with that type of personality who is willing to pay him. Snyder has money, but goes through coaches like it's his job. Buffalo may be moving to Canada once Ralph Wilson kicks the bucket. Cowher is biding his time and can afford to do so.
Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+# up and wear it.
Various reports did say Cowher was assembling a coaching staff this off season in preparation to get back into coaching....just sayin
ours is not to wonder why just invert and multiply...
I'm not disupting what various reports said.
I'm only pointing out what Cowher himself did or did not say...
Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+# up and wear it.

Batkid got bumped, but got to go to Disneyland with Spider-Man.
Miles Scott, the 5-year-old leukemia patient who was treated like a superhero through San Francisco last year, was supposed to appear with Andrew Garfield -- who plays Spider-Man in the latest franchise reboot -- during the Oscars' tribute to movie heroes on Sunday.
That didn't work out -- so they went to Disneyland on Monday instead.
"Due to the nature of a live show, hard decisions sometimes must be made which require the Academy to cut segments due to the logistics of production," a rep for the Academy told Fox411 about why the planned bit was scrapped at the last second. "Andrew Garfield understood that his segment had to be omitted, and he drove to Disneyland on Monday to spend time with 5-year-old Miles Scott (Batkid) and his family."
Disneyland with Spider-Man is WAY better than the Academy Awards.
The Academy's statement came after the New York Post reported Garfield backed out of the segment. A source supposedly told the site "the Academy was going to make (Miles) an official superhero during the Oscar ceremony ... but, in the middle of the dress rehearsal, Garfield decided he didn't like his lines."
The Post also said Garfield "stormed off," leaving Miles' family "devastated."
Not true, said the Hollywood Reporter, saying the segment just wasn't working. "Basically, because of the fluid nature of live TV production, ultimately the segment didn't work," an Academy rep explained. (Chris Evans was later brought in to present in Garfield's place.)
Anyway, it all worked out for Miles, whose leukemia is in remission.

Five Factors Behind GOP's New Direction in Shutdown Drama
Washington's shutdown drama is showing signs of easing after weeks of partisan nastiness. It's far from over, and the White House may not take House Republican's latest overture—a six-week increase in the debt limit with no end to the government shutdown. That said, something changed this week within the Republican caucus. We can't pretend to know what's in the mind of House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio), but here are some of the tectonic shifts that likely underlie this new direction.
Public Opinion
There's no ducking the no good, very bad polling for the GOP. An Associated Press poll published Wednesday had 62% blaming Republicans for the shutdown and that was just the latest to paint such an undeniably stark picture.
The Backlash
Don't forget we started down this path when a couple of conservative Senate Republicans, specifically Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Mike Lee of Utah, helped make the current fiscal deadlines a referendum on Obamacare. This irked many in the GOP, who saw it as putting tactics ahead of policy, and many have been speaking out. The latest is Dan Liljenquist, a former GOP Senate candidate and nobody's idea of a squish, who wrote today that Mr. Lee had "committed an act of self-immolation that will cripple his influence in the United States Senate." Business groups have also started to turn more vocal and active against a caucus that used to be an ally.
Paul Ryan
The architect of the GOP's fiscal policy stayed silent in public as the Obamacare battle raged, peeved that it had stolen the focus from what he thought should have been a negotiation over the U.S.'s long-term budget woes. Then, suddenly this week, he pops up with an op-ed that doesn't mention Obamacare and presents a way out that seems to be jelling. We have to imagine he was just waiting for the right moment.
John Boehner
He has a relationship with his own caucus that suggests the Speaker's office has an unending supply of Advil. This time, he let the conservatives free and even encouraged them, until their tactics ran out of steam in the face of unyielding Democratic opposition. That appears to have won him a lot of credit from tea-party-aligned lawmakers who've previously been hostile, and might help them swallow this latest offer, even though it's far from what they want. See quotes from Rep. Matt Salmon, for an example.
Yes, some Republicans say they think a debt default is OK and others—more plausibly—say the Oct. 17 deadline set by the Treasury isn't hard and fast. But it's also true that almost all of Wall Street, major corporate CEOs and a lot of lawmakers are panicked at the idea of a default of any stripe. The impregnability of Treasury debt is a big underpinning of U.S. global dominance. And signs of stress are growing in the financial system's plumbing, despite today's stock rally.

Professor Francis A. Boyle of the University of Illinois College of Law in Champaign, U.S.A. has filed a Complaint with the Prosecutor for the International Criminal Court (I.C.C.) in The Hague against U.S. citizens George W. Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenet, Condoleezza Rice, and Alberto Gonzales (the "Accused") for their criminal policy and practice of "extraordinary rendition" perpetrated upon about 100 human beings. This term is really their euphemism for the enforced disappearance of persons and their consequent torture. This criminal policy and practice by the Accused constitute Crimes against Humanity in violation of the Rome Statute establishing the I.C.C.
The United States is not a party to the Rome Statute. Nevertheless the Accused have ordered and been responsible for the commission of I.C.C. statutory crimes within the respective territories of many I.C.C. member states, including several in Europe. Consequently, the I.C.C. has jurisdiction to prosecute the Accused for their I.C.C. statutory crimes under Rome Statute article 12(2)(a) that affords the I.C.C. jurisdiction to prosecute for I.C.C. statutory crimes committed in I.C.C. member states.
The Complaint requests (1) that the I.C.C. Prosecutor open an investigation of the Accused on his own accord under Rome Statute article 15(1); and (2) that the I.C.C. Prosecutor also formally "submit to the [I.C.C.] Pre-Trial Chamber a request for authorization of an investigation" of the Accused under Rome Statute article 15(3).
For similar reasons, the Highest Level Officials of the Obama administration risk the filing of a follow-up Complaint with the I.C.C. if they do not immediately terminate the Accused's criminal policy and practice of "extraordinary rendition," which the Obama administration has continued to implement.
The Complaint concludes with a request that the I.C.C. Prosecutor obtain International Arrest Warrants for the Accused from the I.C.C. in accordance with Rome Statute articles 58(1)(a), 58(1)(b)(i), 58(1)(b)(ii), and 58(1)(b)(iii).
In order to demonstrate your support for this Complaint you can contact the I.C.C. Prosecutor by letter, fax, or email as indicated below.
