9. TODL, variation on LISP for cyborgs
|Joe Corneli ([email protected])
|Re: displaying one character per line.

I want to be able to switch between different list views of a document. For example, one might want to look at a text document as a list of characters, a list of words, a list of phonemes, a list (tree) of syntactic clauses, a list of sentences, or a list of topic sentences that link to paragraphs, etc. Characters just happen to be the simplest.
This is part of designing a mode I call todl-mode (for TODo List). TODL is a variation on LISP specially designed for cyborgs :). The idea is that if you can switch between different list views and add hyperlinks to elements of each view, you will have a very powerful tool for processing information.
I think of it as being somewhere in between lisp-mode, emacs-wiki-mode, and something like outline-mode. It should be possible to implement a TODL variant for any kind of code (so todl-mode is also something like font-lock-mode).

Capital Journal Daybreak: Congress Goes Back to School | GOP Establishment Has Upper Hand in May Primaries | Obama Seeks Foreign-Policy Victory
Sign up for the newsletter: http://on.wsj.com/CapitalJournalSignup
CONGRESS GOES BACK TO SCHOOL: Congress may have been in recess for the last two weeks, but House Republicans had some homework: Go visit charter schools. The field trips were part of a coming House push on education, a topic that's been overshadowed lately amid battles about health care and budgets. Though the sniping about the health-care law is unlikely to go away anytime soon, both Democrats and Republicans see education legislation as a key plank in their midterm campaigns.
The GOP-controlled House is pushing a bill aimed at expanding access to charter-school funding and making it easier to open new charter schools modeled after successful ones. Senate Democrats' legislation—which they plan to roll out later this spring—takes a different tack, focusing on making college more affordable and easing the burden of student-loan debt. Kristina Peterson reports: http://on.wsj.com/1h4HHQg

The political world should know by mid-June who is winning the war inside the GOP. Republican primary voters in Georgia, Idaho and Kentucky pick their nominees for the fall campaigns on May 20 – and, in the process, help settle which faction of the GOP holds the upper hand. The outcome could have a profound effect on how party leaders govern after the election. Read Patrick O'Connor's full post in Washington Wire: http://on.wsj.com/QUc59x
U.S. BEEFS UP MILITARY OPTIONS FOR CHINA: The U.S. military has options prepared for a muscular response to any future Chinese provocations in the South and East China seas, reflecting concerns that U.S. allies in Asia are questioning the Obama administration's commitments to its security obligations. That's a question that has closely followed the president during his four-country trip to Asia. Adam Entous and Julian E. Barnes report: http://on.wsj.com/1mQb0gP
IRAQI MILITARY OUTMATCHED: As Iraq prepares for its first post-occupation parliamentary elections on Wednesday—more than two years after the last U.S. troops left the country—its demoralized, underequipped military is losing the fight against Islamic militants, who are better armed, better trained, and better motivated.

President Obama is a man in search of a foreign-policy victory, as things seem to be going badly on a lot of fronts. Tensions have been escalating between Russia and Ukraine in eastern Ukraine.

Two social and educational milestones are about to arrive in short order, National Journal's Ron Brownstein notes: Next month will mark the 60th anniversary of the Brown vs. Board of Education Supreme Court decision desegregating America's schools, and June will mark the completion of the last school year in which a majority of the nation's K-12 public education students are white. The overlap, he writes, underscores how important it is that schools be not merely desegregated, but that they provide equal opportunities. http://bit.ly/QUfeWN
But here's some progress on that educational opportunity front: The graduation rate among America's high school students has reached 80%, and the biggest growth has come among Hispanic and African-American students, whose graduation rates have risen 15% and 9% respectively from 2006 to 2012, writes the Associated Press' Kimberly Hefling. http://apne.ws/QUfi91

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor has had to wrestle with restive conservatives in Washington a lot over the last few years, and now he has to contend with them at home as well.

Monday's letters: Truly in need'
Published: Monday, November 11, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 8, 2013 at 4:22 p.m.
To the editor: Your article in the Oct. 29 edition regarding McCrory refuses to call special session to expand Medicaid indicates the Kaiser Family Foundation estimates 320,000 North Carolinians will miss out on the expansion. Most Medicaid recipients are poor children, older adults and the disabled.
Gov. Pat McCrory is quoted as saying, I will not sacrifice quality care for the people truly in need. Is he implying that the 320,000 North Carolinians, mostly poor children, older adults and the disabled, are not truly in need?
He further stated nor risk further budget overruns by expanding an already broken system. Again, is he implying that the need to curtail budget overruns, i.e. keeping taxes lower for wealthy North Carolinians and corporations, is actually more important than caring for poor children, older adults and the disabled?
In my humble opinion, this is without conscience!
Clay Eddleman
Chairman of the Henderson County Democratic Party,
Socialist agenda
To the editor: How appropriate that this Halloween the mask of liberalism comes off and we really get to see what the past five years have given the American sheeple for their investment in the first black president in U.S. history! Who, incidentally, you cant possibly criticize and not be called a bigot or a racist.
Obamacare is a disaster and has caused millions to lose their current health insurance policies, and at no time in our history have we had more social unrest, class warfare and racial division, let alone an economy on life support, and all thanks to the liberal wing of the Democratic Party and the sheeple who promulgated its socialist agenda!
While socially conservative GOP patriots like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee continue to be vilified as wacko birds for standing up for core American values and principles, the Democratic Party continues to get a pass for bringing this country to the brink of economic and moral collapse, and I hold responsible the foolish, misinformed electorate for voting for this nightmare not only once but twice! We get the leaders we deserve!
Bob Jopson
More sanitary
To the editor: Since the municipal elections are now over, this would be a good time for our cities of Hendersonville and Asheville to rethink their future policies regarding health and sanitation at city-sponsored festivities such as the North Carolina Apple Festival.
Although mobile lavatories or porta-potties are provided to tourists and visitors at these activities, there is a lack of opportunities for hand-washing.
In the 1900s, this might have been adequate, but in the 21st century we can do much better. And both our children and grandchildren will benefit from the proper guidance.
The problem of messy and unclean hands could be easily solved by providing soap dispensers, warm water, paper towels and/or sanitary wipes to the out-of-town families.
Dr. Ralph W. Bastedo
Lets wake up
To the editor: When will America wake up?
It is usually in the morning. How about after a nightmare? It has lasted almost five years.
Jobs have been stagnant with the help of the Environmental Protection Agency, spending is out of control, we had the needless deaths of four Americans in Benghazi, the National Security Agency is spying everywhere without any accountability, and the IRS became the bully for the White House and its agenda.
Frankly, I am sick of lies, deceptions and promises not kept. The hidden taxes in Obamacare are slowly emerging, and you will be paying them.
I believe Barack Obamas goal is to bring America to its knees by control. Your rights are disappearing through control of education, economics, health and political correctness.
America wake up. Soon we will be prohibited from the rights we grew up with, such as the Pledge of Allegiance, God Bless America, In God We Trust and saluting the flag.

There's no doubt about it, says Connie Jenkins: A deer suddenly assaulted her small Honda while she was driving along a winding canyon to her home high above Malibu. Yet the suggestion in a letter from an expeditor for Farmers Insurance that she seek damages from the "third party" - which in this case would be the deer - seemed more trouble than it was worth. She paid the deductible herself, she reports, because "I'm pretty sure that doe has no dough."
We all know that Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, a fierce Republican, felt no qualms about angrily shaking her finger at President Obama when the two met at an airport during the presidential campaign. So it was not surprising that she recently got assertive with reporter Dennis Welch. Brewer was waiting to speak about energy to the Western Governors' Association when Welch popped the question: Where does she stand on the issue of global warming? Her answer, peppered with "you knows," went this way: "Everybody has an opinion on it, you know, and I, you know, probably don't believe that it's manmade. I believe that, you know, that weather elements are controlled by different things." After her convoluted answer, the governor walked away but then returned to "hit Welch with a closed fist, demanding: 'Where in the hell'd that come from?' " Videos of the encounter, posted on the website of KTVK-TV, where Welch works, swiftly went viral, reports the Arizona Republic. Matthew Benson, an aide to Brewer, downplayed the incident: "The reporter himself is saying he didn't think it was malicious and the governor did not mean any harm."
A Columbia Falls state legislator said he's so convinced the dollar is in freefall and about to become worthless that he's asked the state to pay him in gold and silver coins, reports the Billings Gazette. Republican Rep. Jerry O'Neill justified his request by citing a clause in the U.S. Constitution that says no state shall "make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts." His stand, he adds, should get people thinking "about what will happen if the U.S. currency collapses" - a dire event he fears might occur while he's still on the state dole.
Demanding payment in gold and silver might sound odd, but odder still were the actions of Joel Boniek, a former state legislator from Livingston, Mont., who was most recently a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. Boniek was arrested last July for various charges, including resisting arrest, after he failed to stop at an emergency roadblock during a wildfire near his home in the Paradise Valley, reports The Associated Press. An irate Boniek arrived at the Park County Justice Court accompanied by a throng of supporters eager to heckle jackbooted government officials. When county attorney Kathleen Carrick tried to speak, Boniek interrupted: "Your Honor, why is this woman even speaking if she can't prove she's (a public official)?" And when Justice of the Peace Linda Budeski told a very vocal Boniek supporter that he was "out of order," the heckler cursed and insisted: "You're out of order." Things went downhill from there, and finally the exasperated judge adjourned the case and left the room, at which point Boniek declared: "I'm in charge now." "No, you're not," an officer responded, but Boniek continued to insist that, because the judge had abandoned the floor, "I announce the case dismissed as the last man standing in the courtroom." For the record, Boniek was wrong; Justice Budeski said the case was still on, just delayed.
When potato magnate J.R. Simplot died in 2008, at the age of 99, he left his hilltop mansion above Boise to the state, along with 37 acres, a 30-by-50-foot American flag, and an endowment valued at $1.5 million in 2005. But things have not turned out as Simplot wished: The fund for maintaining what was meant to be the Idaho governor's residence has shrunk to $900,000, the mansion is seen by many Idahoans as a money pit, and, truth is, no governor seems to have any desire to live in the fancy house. The Governor's Housing Committee has solicited public comment but no consensus has emerged. Meanwhile, "As Idaho has discovered, it's easier to take a mansion than it is to give it back," reports AP. The self-made billionaire's heirs don't want it, and mansion supporters say it would be an insult to the memory of Simplot to just sell the thing.

Voice actor for Charlie Brown arrested in Calif.
Published: Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 7:06 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 7:06 a.m.
SAN DIEGO - The man who was the voice of Charlie Brown in the first "Peanuts" television specials has pleaded guilty to threatening and stalking both his ex-girlfriend and a plastic surgeon who gave her a breast enhancement he paid for.
City News Service says 56-year-old Peter Robbins entered the plea Wednesday in a San Diego court and could get up to three years in prison at his sentencing next month.
Prosecutors say Robbins called his former girlfriend dozens of times a day and told her he would kill her and her son if she did not give back his dog and car.
They say he made similar threats and demanded a refund from the plastic surgeon.
Robbins provided the voice of the title character in 1965's "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and 1966's "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown."

Buyout Boom? Not So Fast Say Carlyle and Blackstone
There's been a lot of talk about Dell opening up the floodgates of private-equity deals, here included. But some big private-equity executives say they aren't following Silver Lake like lemmings.
Carlyle Group's co-CEO's David Rubenstein and William Conway told Bloomberg TV at Davos that while the financing markets are open, they aren't looking at big deals.
"Large buyouts might work, but the history of buyouts with $20 billion or more price tags has not been filled with a lot of success," Rubenstein said. "You've got to work very hard to make those deals work and good luck to them if they pull it off."
Still, Conway said it was a "good time" to be a buyer because of the cheap financing and "reasonable" equity valuations in the market.
Carlyle is not involved in the talks to take Dell private for more than $20 billion, a deal that could be the biggest in over five years.
Some deal makers, an optimistic bunch if ever there was one, have said that Dell may be the first of a wave of deals. Cheap debt and investors hungry for yield, they argue, will help finance the deals and that private equity is loaded with funds to put to use.
The comments from the Carlyle executives came a day after Blackstone Group's Steve Schwarzman also pooh-poohed the idea of a buyout boom on Bloomberg TV.
Schwarzman confirmed that Blackstone didn't look at Dell, but said "I think the financial elements of that deal are very clever, I think the issue is going to be how the business actually performs."
When asked if other big deals will follow, Schwarzman said "I think that may be a little overblown" adding "This isn't your run of the mill set of circumstances."
Of course, maybe Blackstone and Carlyle are just a bit jealous they aren't getting the deal. Both have closed some of the biggest buyouts of all time. The two firms teamed up to buy Freescale Semiconductor in 2006 for $17.6 billion, the 10th biggest deal of all time, according to Dealogic.
Given both complimented the Dell buyout idea, they may be trying to put on a brave face in the cold Davos air.

Police: Stay off the roads over next 24 hours if possible
Published: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 4:51 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 4:51 p.m.
State Police is urging drivers to use caution when traveling today, especially after sunset, because motorists can be caught in flash floods on the road.
"Avoid driving in heavy storms unless absolutely necessary," police Trooper Stephen Hammons said. "Often, injuries and deaths occur during and in the aftermath of such storms. Sightseers impeding roadways cause obstacles for emergency personnel responding to those in need."
The agency suggests that people slow down, possibly below posted speed limits, to avoid hydroplaning and account for increased stopping times. Police are also asking that people not drive around barricades.

Indeed, Whatever Happened to the Soul? is an attempt to establish a perspective on human nature that would allow for greater resonance between science and faith. We have tried to describe the nature of humans from the perspective of disciplines ranging from biology to theology in a way that is reconcilable and congruent. Our attempt has been, in every case, to achieve descriptions that both represent the current state of knowledge in the discipline and harmonize with the descriptions from the other disciplines. In order to increase by a few degrees the warming relationship between science and faith, we have attempted to sound a multi-disciplinary resonant chord (to mix metaphors).
Our core theme - the key of the resonant chord - is a monistic, or holistic, view of humans. In order to avoid confusion with reductionistic or materialistic forms of monism, which we do not wish to espouse, as well as to denote a particular form of monism, we have chosen the label "nonreductive physicalism" to represent our common perspective. Thus, statements about the physical nature of human beings made from the perspective of biology or neuroscience are about exactly the same entity as statements made about the spiritual nature of persons from the point of view of theology or religious traditions. We would disavow the opinion that human science speaks about a physical being, while theology and religion speak about a spiritual essence or soul.

BOSTON -- Let the Bay Area's Super Bowl party begin.
NFL owners today selected the San Francisco 49ers' new Santa Clara stadium to host the 50th Super Bowl in 2016, sending the nation's biggest sporting event back to the Bay Area for the first time since 1985.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell made the announcement at a news conference following the vote at the league owners' meeting at a Boston hotel. The only other finalist to host the game was the Miami area.
Goodell also announced that NFL owners, at the same meeting, voted to play the 51st Super Bowl in 2017 in Houston. Houston was not eligible for the 2016 Super Bowl and competed with Miami for the 2017 game by virtue of Miami's defeat to Santa Clara.
The Bay Area has been ready to celebrate since the Florida's legislature this month failed to OK a ballot measure that would have allowed voters the chance to approve $350 million in renovations to the Miami Dolphins' aging stadium -- something it needed to be considered a serious competitor. The problems in Miami took much of the drama out of today's meeting, though Bay Area leaders seemed to be taking nothing for granted until the votes were counted.
Still, the emotion was palpable after the decision was reached.
"After losing a Super Bowl, it's certainly nice to win a Super Bowl," 49ers CEO Jed York said, alluding to February's 34-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in New Orleans.
"I'm thrilled," said former 49ers tight end Brent Jones, who took home three Super Bowl trophies from 1987 to 1997. "You talk about the perfect culmination. For a new stadium to be awarded Super Bowl L in the greatest area in the country is spectacular."
Jones was born in Santa Clara and played at Santa Clara University.
Former 49ers running back Roger Craig scored three touchdowns the last time a Super Bowl was played in the Bay Area. Now a vice president for business development at Palo Alto-based Tibco Software, Craig said:
"I think it's beautiful. I know people said Miami had more experience hosting and all that. But, please, why wouldn't people want to come to the Bay Area? It's one of the most beautiful places in the country. It's the heart of Silicon Valley."
BayArea fans were also thrilled.
"It will bring a lot of money to our economy and even more support to our teams," said Rachelle Yellin, 19, of Santa Cruz, outside San Francisco City Hall, where Mayor Ed Lee this morning staged a rally for the Golden State Warriors basketball team, which last week lost a second-round playoff series.
Added her friend Audra Grace Avila, 18, also of Santa Cruz: "This whole city is on a winning streak."
Gushed San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee: "This is what we do. This is the kind of international event that we love hosting."
The losing bid committee from South Florida, meanwhile, blamed the defeat on the Florida Legislature's decision not to place the stadium renovation on the ballot.
"There's no doubt in my mind we had the better bid," said Rodney Barreto, the Miami bid chairman. "It's a shame."
But former San Francisco Giants executive Pat Gallagher, who was in Boston to help with the Bay Area bid, said it was unfair to say the region won by default.
"We never ever took it for granted," agreed Joe D'Alessandro, vice chair of the bid committee.
The Super Bowl is expected to bring hundreds of millions of dollars of economic activity to the region and unprecedented attention to Santa Clara, which has a population of 118,000 and will host a game expected to draw more than 100 million television viewers. Dozens of pre-game events will be scattered around the Bay Area, with San Francisco hosting a bulk of the celebrations during the week leading up the game, as the NFL expects its golden anniversary Super Bowl to be its biggest ever.
In Santa Clara this morning, city and community leaders filled City Hall to watch Goodell unveil the winner live on television.
When the vote came through in their favor, cheers went up and 49ers' fan Kathy Hughes hugged everyone around her. "I knew this would happen," she said.
Lisa Santillan, co-president of the Santa Clara 49ers booster club, spent more than five years lobbying for the new stadium to be built.
"This was always about the future," she said. "We got the Super Bowl. That's great. But there's more to come. Like the World Cup in soccer, concerts and college sports."
Another booster club member, 82-year-old Del Fontana, was born and grew up in Santa Clara and does not mind if San Francisco steals her town's thunder.
"What am I supposed to do -- stop talking to my San Francisco friends?" she cracked. "I'd do this all over again in a minute."
Santa Clara Mayor Jamie Matthews and other city officials were jubilant, arguing once again that the new stadium was worth taxpayer support.
"Before it opens, we got a Super Bowl," Matthews said. "It's a pretty good return on investment. Everyone's going to know where it's at -- in Santa Clara, right in the heart of Silicon Valley."
After spending the previous two days practicing inside "war rooms" at a Boston Hyatt, the bid committees from San Francisco and Miami made their final pitches to NFL owners just after lunch today.
San Francisco bid chairman Daniel Lurie, a San Francisco philanthropist, and D'Alessandro, CEO of San Francisco Travel, spoke for 15 minutes at 1:45 p.m. EDT, following a 15-minute presentation from the South Florida delegation. Both team owners, including York, also spoke for five minutes each, and the NFL staff gave a 15-minute summary to the owners. Then the 32 owners cast secret, written ballots.
Dozens of Bay Area celebrities pitched NFL owners on Santa Clara. New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he was called recently by one of the people he respects most -- former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who sits on the Bay Area Super Bowl Bid Committee.
"It's just a great stadium," Kraft said.
Lurie said starting Wednesday the region will have to begin looking for a new CEO to lead a staff of 20 to 25 new employees that will be charged with planning the game. He expects to continue raising money to defray the $40 million cost of the game, of which $30 million has been raised so far.
Lurie said companies such as Google and Apple will each pick one or two areas of expertise to work on new technologies and services for the game.
The $1.2 billion Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, which is set to open by August 2014, was named a finalist by NFL owners in October and was first deemed eligible for a Super Bowl when the project was still being planned in 2010.
The February 2016 game, officially called Super Bowl L, will mark the first NFL title game in California since Super Bowl XXXVII in San Diego in January 2003, when the Oakland Raiders were crushed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 48-21.
The only other NFL championship played in the Bay Area was Super Bowl XIX, when -- just like today -- San Francisco beat Miami. That time, 84,059 fans packed in to the old Stanford Stadium to watch the 49ers defeat the Dolphins, 38-16, on Jan. 21, 1985. Super Bowl MVP Joe Montana led the Niners to what was at the time their second Super Bowl trophy.
No team has ever played in their home stadium in a Super Bowl.
The 49ers, meanwhile, are the odds-on favorites in Las Vegas to win the 2014 Super Bowl, which will be played at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., where the New York Giants and Jets play. The owners had also previously selected to play the 49th Super Bowl, in 2015, at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., where the Arizona Cardinals play.

Most productive way to use Gmail on your Mac.
Do you love Gmail? With Mailplane, Gmail becomes even more productive and fun. Acting as a site specific web browser for Googleâs Gmail, Mailplane is a full fledged Mail client for the Desktop:
Save time using photo drag and drop to send attachments.
Personalize your messages with formatted signatures.
Easily switch between different Gmail accounts.
Get notifications and never miss an important message.
Link Gmail conversations with Mac documents.
Make Mailplane your default email client
Required OS: not specified
Tags: google , app , web , email , mail , mailapp , gmail
40 Opinions
I can't choose between the web and the Mac. So, with Mailplane, I can get the best from both worlds. The things Apple's Mail do in the gMail way.
There's just ONE thing that make me sad: No offline support! If Mailplane has offline support, they've reached perfection.
ton's of problems with switching accounts. Both me and my colleagues are constantly getting google's login timeout. This does not happen when using the browser. Also, the insert inline image is missing from the email editor - it is a critical flaw.
This is a great app, especially if you have a lot of mail (I have 8GB which is way too much for Mail, Thunderbird, etc). Love having Gmail separate from the browser and the convenience functions (Growl notifications, etc.) are worth the price. Try Fluid if you don't mind going without this functionality.
Seriously invaluable if you have multiple Gmail accounts. Great stuff.
Beta version 2.0 beta 2 known issues:
- "Safari Ad Block" and "SafariBlock" are not compatible with newer WebKits and cause Mailplane to crash. Workaround: Uninstall these InputManagers or enable use "System WebKit" in advanced preferences (req. Safari 3.1.1 or newer).
- Strange file extension (.doc.dot) in MS Office documents. This is caused by MS Office 2008. See this Apple Support thread for more information. Workaround: Rename the file.
- Using the mouse to insert a contact from the contact autocompletion doesn't work. Workaround: Use TAB or ENTER key to select the contact.
For those using the beta version, there's a new version out:
2.0 beta 2 (734)
"Important update for all users!
Gmail is pushing out a new Gmail 2 version, this may lead to these problems:
external links and downloads do not work
The Mail menu doesn't work correctly
compose new in separate window doesn't work
New: Faster loading
Thanks to Google, Gmail loads much faster! Account switching, new message windows, and initial startup are much zippier! "
Version 1.60 (and previous too iirc), gets quite often stuck when sending a big attachment (ie: over 10MB). Opera works much better for this.
I'm on the beta. Regarding the pricing, yes, I must admit I find it steep, too. When they are out of beta I'll still buy a license though, simply because I tried all the gmail 'enhancers' out there (including on the PC) and mailplane is the only that work 90% the way I'd like gmail to work.
Bottom line is that google crippled gmail multi-account behavior on purpose - if you have 8 accounts or more using their 'google for your domain' program you must logout and login again each time you want to check a different account and it takes fooorrreeevvverrr to do do so, AND you can't know how many mails you got in each inbox. Even with apps like netvibes you still can't switch between accounts easily. But with mailplane you just doubleclick your account name and voila. I monitor dozens of accounts accross domains and this app saves me a LOT of grief.
Great app and friendly developer.

"You make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give."
-- Winston Churchill
I'm sorry if this reads as bad news, but it is officially the "holiday" season.
With Halloween and the elections over, Thanksgiving will be here in the wink of an eye.
And, with the holidays generally comes an assortment of events, obligations, juggling, extra expenses and good old-fashioned stress.
But this can also be a time to give -- really give.
In the coming weeks, there will be loads of requests for food donations, help with distribution of goods to those in need, a chance to dive into a service organization's event.
For their sakes, as well as yours, I say go for it.
I've talked to loads of volunteers over the years, and everyone agrees that being a giver is oh-so-rewarding.
"Volunteers are not paid -- not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless."
-- Unknown
For example, you can pitch in with the huge event the Brentwood Regional Community Chest organizes annually. The group distributes an amazing amount of food and new toys to those in need in far East County. More than 500 families are given ingredients for a full holiday meal, along with gifts for their children. Volunteers are wanted for the packing day from 4-10 p.m. Dec. 14 and from 7:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Dec. 15 to distribute the goods -- all at Brentwood Elementary, 200 Griffith Lane.
The Community Chest was founded by Rose Pierce more than 45 years ago. For more information on how to help, call 925-634-3216.
"Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth."
-- Muhammad Ali
The Antioch Charter Academy (ACA) I & II have doubled their annual fundraiser as a service project. The annual Christmas Tree and Wreath sale encourages local tree-buying families to pre-order a tree not only for themselves, but also one for a local family in need.
Last year, the schools donated 42 trees.
Nov. 16 is the last day to pre-order. For more information, call 925-727-7348 or email email@example.com.
ACA I & II are progressive, tuition-free public, K-8 charter schools.
For other events and organizations to help, check out our weekly calendar and/or call churches and groups in the area.
"Being good is commendable, but only when it is combined with doing good is it useful."
-- Unknown
The Pittsburg Police Officers Association is once again sponsoring area underprivileged families. Officers contribute year-round to this fund. But as the need has grown, so has the need to get more donations.
Last year, the group gave Christmas gifts and dinner to several families. This year, they're asking for unwrapped new toys, a variety of gift cards and monetary donations. All can be taken to the police department at 65 Civic Ave. For more information, call 925-252-4980.

First of all, congratulations for the amazing work that has been done on qcad3. This is truly impressive, you changed an old thing into a slick modern app.
I above most things appreciated the dwg support. This is really something that adds value and makes the price to pay for qcad more than fair.
A couple of things I miss, though, that you guys might be interested to know:
- "dot" arrow styles for dimensions. Archticks and arrows don't look as nice as dots! Vote for dots!
- xrefs. Using xrefs is really some easy way to make your drawing sets become "parametric" somehow... Embedding drawings into other drawings is something I do all the time, and is a must when several people are working on the same project.
- movable coordinate system (UCS). That's maybe the command I use most in 2d cad... You draw a plan view of a house, then you want to draw a section, but instead of copying/rotating your plan view to build your section underneath, it's much handier to rotate the coordinate system, and draw your section at its right position, offsetted from the cut line. This, especially combined with xrefs (your plan gets updated when someone else changes it), make it very efficient to have several people working on the same set.
Anyway, surely all this is in the plans already (except the dim dots maybe ). Keep up the good work!

September 21, 2005
An estimated 12 million renters and homeowners pay more than 50 percent of their annual incomes for housing. That is a lot, especially when you are on a fixed income. But Walton Rehabilitation Hospital and the Department of Housing and Urban Development are cutting the cost when it comes to housing for seniors with disabilities.
Katie Ramsey knows what it's like to live on a fixed income.
"God knows I'm gone tell you it was very hard for me to survive that way," Ramsey said.
Commissioners and Interim Mayor Willie Mays were on hand to witness the open house of new senior homes. They toured the one-bedroom apartment homes that include full kitchens, nice size bedrooms, and even a blinking light to indicate someone is ringing the doorbell.
"This project was one of only four that was approved in 2002 in the entire state of Georgia," said Sam Lytle, HUD Project Manager.
HUD is addressing the need with it's 202 Program providing a $2.9 million grant to Walton Rehabilitation Health System to make affordable housing available to seniors.
"They pay about 30 percent of their adjusted income toward rent," said Beth Miller, Executive Director of Walton Community Services.
And $200 a month now makes a huge difference in the $620 Katie Ramsey was use to paying at her old apartment.
"I have been to the place where I didn't hardly have food to eat. It was really hard, I go to the grocery store I couldn't manage," Ramsey said.
Housing like this started 10 years ago when Walton Rehab realized the patients that were being discharged after rehab had no place to go that really matched their needs.
"Where we look to restore people to their highest degree of function ability with the goal of networking back to the community and living independently with dignity and fulfillment," said Dennis Skelly, CEO, Walton Rehabilitation Health System.
And the extra cash Katie Ramsey is saving by renting here will give her an opportunity to take a much-needed vacation.
"I said thank God. I never been no place in 11-12 years, I said I would be ready to go some place," Ramsey said.
The apartments are on Walton Ridge off of Windsor Spring Road. There are currently eight properties like this that Walton Rehab has partnered with HUD to create. Two more are in the planning stages.

Nodcast Podcast Archive
Check out our full collection of exclusive Nodcast Podcasts featuring our favorite artists in children's entertainment.
Laura Doherty is a nationally touring children's recording artist and award-winning producer with an ear for a catchy melody. She acoustically rocks your kid's world with her breezy folk-pop tunes for the whole family! Her award-winning CD, "Kids in the City" (2009), pays tribute to her kind of town... Chicago. Hitting the XM radio airwaves, it has garnered great reviews in the press. Using the Windy City as her inspiration, Doherty writes about the El train, skyscrapers, the farmer's market, the zoo, and all the wonders of the city, as seen through a child's eyes. Also be sure to catch Laura's September 2011 release, "Shining Like a Star."
Several years ago, ex-Chicago rocker Ralph Covert turned to kids' music. Shortly thereafter, kids turned to Ralph Covert. Ralph connects with kids and parents alike, seamlessly blending musical genres. His infectious pop hooks and inescapable, get-up-and-dance energy are front and center in this always fun, sometimes educational (we won't tell the kids if you don't) Nodcast Podcast. Check out the world according to Ralph.
Over the course of eight outstanding releases, Dan Zanes has launched to the forefront of the kids music scene. Dan blends folk and world music influences into an organic, handcrafted style all his own. The recordings always maintain an easy going feeling full of warmth and spontaneity. Celebrity musicians always drop by to join in on the fun. All ages. All musical tastes. All good.
A former schoolteacher and children's music instructor, Chicago's Ann Torralba, better known as Little Miss Ann, makes music that draws on her experiences as a mother and teacher to present big messages in a fun, entertaining way. It's sometimes upbeat, sometimes gentle but always sweet and fun for parents and kids. Join Little Miss Ann and her three young co-hosts (including her daughter, Olivia) as they present their Nodcast Podcast, recorded at the Bleeding Heart Bakery in Chicago. We guarantee it'll be big fun for your little miss or mister.
From local favorite in Austin, TX, to one of the most entertaining, up-and-coming bands on the kids music scene today, word is spreading about The Jellydots. Started when lead singer Doug Snyder, who works as a children's guitar teacher, sought to capture students' interest by helping them write their own songs. They feature songs ranging from get-up-and-dance pop and reggae to subtle, soothing lullabies. Snyder keeps the tempo fun and upbeat, and even offers some guitar lessons, on this exclusive, interactive Nodcast Podcast. Overall, there's a lot to enjoy about jamming with The Jellydots.
Chicago's Justin Roberts is one of our favorite performers from today's hip kids' music scene. Justin mixes clever lyrics with incredibly catchy pop hooks. He's got a voice that sounds like a cross between Paul Simon, James Taylor and Nick Lowe. And he appeals to kids and adults alike.
Over the span of 5 award-winning CDs and countless national tours, Justin has earned the title of the hardest working man in children's show business. He's also earned our vote as one of the best.
Enzo Garcia is not your father's folk musician - he's your kids'. Drawing inspiration from the classic folk singers like Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, the San Francisco singer-songwriter puts his unique spin on traditional folk songs. Using an eclectic mix of traditional and unconventional instruments including musical saw, jaw harp, yodeling and his homemade "Enzotar", Garcia creates songs with something new to discover in every listen. His music is at once traditional and diverse, obscure and accessible and a joy for both parents and kids. Take a listen to his exclusive Nodcast Podcast and pick up his CD "LMNO Music – Pink" and see what the heck we mean.
Those already familiar with the fun and funky Father Goose from his years of collaboration with Dan Zanes and friends know that his enthusiasm for all types of music comes through in everything he does. Now, this pioneer of children's music with a Caribbean twist has released one mother of a CD, featuring cool contributors like Zanes and Sheryl Crow. It's all done with the passion and playfulness you've come to expect from Father Goose. Check out his lively Nodcast Podcast and pick up his CD "It's a Bam Bam Diddly" today.

The result is our latest 20-minute Nodcast Podcast. This exclusive audio program features an interesting chat between the two well-known musicians as well as several live performances. The two Smithsonian Folkways label mates met at Chicago's renowned Old Town School of Folk Music (where else?) to record this special program.
Amy Krouse Rosenthal is the author of several critically-acclaimed books for children, adults, and those who fall somewhere in between. Maybe you've already discovered Amy's best sellers: "Little Pea," "Cookies: Bite Size Life Lessons" and "Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life."

Wherever you are in the Amy K. discovery process, we think your fun-o-meter will peak while listening to Amy (and her daughter Paris) in her premiere Nodcast Podcast.
To describe Peter Himmelman as a children's musician would be like calling Ben Franklin an inventor. It's just one of Himmelman's many notable talents. Himmelman is also a critically acclaimed adult musician and a Hollywood composer, scoring network TV shows such as "Bones" and "Men in Trees." Lately, Himmelman has been dabbling in spoken word performances. Himmelman's many talents are on display in his "Nodcast Podcast."

Tottenham Hotspur Message Board
Looking good.....
I must admit, I didn't expect to be posting this.
I honestly thought that AVB's opening season - given the changes in the squad and my own personal doubts over his 'track record' - would be less than successful.
BUT here we are, on the run in and we're sitting in the top 4 having just beaten that southern bunch of softies and about to play Inter Milan still being in the Europa.
I'm still not convinced by the man, but bloody good luck to him. I hope we get a stonking win against Inter and then cement 4th with a win over Liverpool.
The past few seasons - since Jol - have been looking good. We seem to be still heading in the right direction - and with the new stadium still on the horizon, we're not looking too bad.
(I'd like a bit more flair though!).
I hope I haven't said that toooooo early and it jinxes him.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Evening fellow yids.
As you say john,LOOKING GOOD.
With reference to AVB, I thought that if he was good enough for Chelsea, he can't be that bad,after all they must have done thier homework on him and he felt that it would be a change to have a young Manager with fresh ideas.
So far so good and providing he takes so notice of the LOYAL FANS then i'm sure he can keep taking us in the right direction.
Still enjoying the win over the POPGUNS and hope that with some small changes here that we can overcome INTER and the POOL.
Think we're definately more flowing without Dempsey and should continue with the 5 in the middle.
ADE definately needs a goal ASAP or i can see him becoming a long term bench warmer behind Daffy who looked very sharp against woolwhich when he came on.
Nice to see GYLFIE get a start and would like to see him find the back of the net to boost his confidence as i'm sure we haven't seen the best of him and feel he deserves a run of games ahead of the newly arrived HOLTBY.
Anyway enough of me and here's looking to more good things to come.

More of the same from me I'm afraid,
I was far from pleased by his appointment and was half expecting a mid table finish this season, after all we have seen huge upheavel in the last 12 months.
I have to take my hat off to the guy, after losing the likes of Luka, VDV and King as well as some good quality squad players in the likes of Pienaar, Niko, Corluka and coping without Kaboul (IMO our best CB last season, BAE and Ade for the majority of the season thus far, he's done incredibly well. Then account for the fact we couldn't/didn't sign 'his' player Moutinho and there were large sections of our fickle 'fan' base who chose to boo, him and our very fresh side, the man has done superbly well.
This is all whilst our closet rivals have spent more in the off season than in many years past, how much did the chavs spend? Liverpoo?, The goons?
I still find his long winded interviews mildly irritating, but that is my problem!
He full deserved his MOTM award and if we beat Inter and Liverpoo, I think he will be in for the award again this month!
Sfer, I don't know if this new format hgas lost you, but you were up until recently one of the most anti-AVB people about, have your views changed, softened at all?
I heard someone say, we are in a false position and that other clubs faillings have put us where we are! well...... thats just #$%$, the league dosen't lie and despite the performances not being quite as breathtaking as last season, we have had to evolve and adapt.
AVB's blue and white army!!!
Truth_Hurts Truth_Hurts Mar 6, 2013 16:27 Flag
Whats all this talk of 4th ?? We are 3rd by 2 points, so thats the position we need to keep and push on for 2nd. To talk of top 4 was the cause of last seasons failure. We are mentally stronger this year, thats very clear since the Everton game. I would definately substitute flair at this stage of the season for results.

Broughton dairy production may be reduced
February 17, 2013
MARIETTA — The loss of a national client may result in less milk production for Broughton Foods in Marietta....
Geezer is absolutely correct. They lost a contract with Meijer-unions had nothing to do with it. Dean Foods is making a large profit-they tried to raise their profit more at Meijer's expense and Meijer's responded with a "seeya" and contracted with another less greedy company. And no, I don't belong to a union.

Broughton jugs tend to drip. Need to get over a sink when trying to pour into a glass, if the jug is more than half full. I avoid them whenever I can find another brand. Surprised they haven't lost more business than they have. I don't know what house brand is involved, haven't encountered the drip problem w/ any house brand.

Dean Foods lost the Meijer contract in late 2012 due to pricing issues. Several locations, i.e. Evart MI are already shutting down. Do a google search on 'Dean Foods closing dairies' for more detailed information. Good luck to Broughton's employees.

|Genus and species:
|Gavialus gangeticus
The gharial ('gary-el') is one of the largest crocodilian species, with males reaching 20 to 23 feet in length. Gharials have long, narrow snouts that contain up to 110 interlocking teeth.
A long snout and razor-sharp teeth are ideal for catching and eating fish, the bulk of the gharial's diet. Young gharials in particular enjoy invertebrate prey such as insects and small vertebrates such as frogs.
While gharials do not have the leg muscles to walk on the ground and prefer to 'belly-slide' instead, they are extremely agile in the water.
Females reach sexual maturity almost twice as fast as males. Following a two-month mating period, gharials nest for about three months during which time the females can deposit up to 60 eggs in a hole on the bank of a river or pond. At six ounces, gharial eggs are one of the largest of any crocodilian species.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – May 31, 2013 – During Ducks Unlimited's annual convention last week, the organization's leaders proudly welcomed 30-year volunteer, George Dunklin Jr., of Stuttgart, Ark., as DU's 42nd president. Dunklin succeeds John Newman, who now serves as chairman of the board.
"I am honored and humbled beyond words to become president of Ducks Unlimited," Dunklin told convention attendees gathered in Portland, Ore. "So many great leaders helped bring me to this place in my conservation career, and I am determined to make them proud during my presidency. And far beyond that, I am committed to continuing to grow and shape this great organization, strengthen our bonds as Team DU and reach or exceed all our goals over the next two years."
Dunklin's plans for his presidency include ensuring the ongoing success of DU's fundraising event system, building on the more than 13 million acres of habitat conservation work, growing DU's youth and education program to recruit and train tomorrow's conservationists and working to meet the objectives laid out in the organization's national business plan.
"Bringing up our next generation with a deep appreciation for waterfowl and habitat is essential to ensuring a strong future not only for Ducks Unlimited but also for the health of our entire continent," Dunklin said. "My wife, Livia, and I made sure we passed on our dedication to conservation to our three daughters – Megan, Hillary and Lauren – who are all Legacy Greenwing DU members. I encourage everyone to do the same for their children and grandchildren starting today."
Dunklin's father planted these very seeds of conservation and stewardship in his son's mind while he was growing up in Pine Bluff, Ark., duck hunting on Arkansas' Grand Prairie. "My dad would constantly tell me that we did not own this land, but we were simply the tenants for the short time that we're here," Dunklin said. "It's our responsibility to leave the land better than we found it – a philosophy that still rings true for me today."
Dunklin carried these messages of stewardship forward into his many careers over the years. Following in the footsteps of his father and his grandfather, L.A. Black, Dunklin is a well-known, third-generation Arkansas rice farmer and a strong advocate for rice agriculture in the region.
In 1983, Dunklin purchased what is now the popular Stuttgart waterfowling destination, Five Oaks Lodge, and began shaping and managing the land for waterfowl and other wildlife. After years of habitat conservation commitment across Arkansas, through rice agriculture and his work at Five Oaks, Dunklin was appointed by Gov. Mike Huckabee to a seven-year term on the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission in 2005.

Garden for the Senses
Opened in 1979, the Garden for the Senses is a combination of meadow and woodland situated on five acres of land just to the east of the campus housing. As its title suggests, this peaceful getaway provides a unique setting for instruction and appreciation based on the five senses, with a particular focus on handicapped accessibility. When entering the garden, the visitor can choose many different pathways to follow. The middle, paved pathway is edged by a triangular flower bed on either side and each bed has a surrounding gravel pathway. Continuing straight, the path leads to another flower bed that divides the path in two. These two paths, as well as the gravel paths all lead to a wide, trellised awning spanning the width of the entrance. Benches are nestled beneath this canopy and afford a peaceful place to absorb the myriad colorful flowers and lush foliage. Beyond the colorful entry way is a more wooded area. The combination of warm, open sunny areas and cool, shaded spaces makes this sensory area inviting year round.

The amount of Carbon-14 atoms (that have not decayed into Nitrogen-14 + beta particle) is halved every ~5730 years. The Carbon-13 and Carbon-12 atoms never decay. So by taking the percentage of Carbon-14 atoms that still exist in the dead material, and doing a bit of calculus, you can determine the approximate age.

Is it that at the half life period, they have a 50-50 chance of being transormed? The latter is not, according to their illustrative animation. So it seems that there is a range of years in which they can decay, a large range too, but somehow that half the number decayse in the period of 5730 years more or less. Then half the half will decay in the next half life period. Yet in that mass of million a number could decay by 1000 years, a greater cumulative number by 2000 years and so forth. Which indicates that this technique seems to be based on probability.

MHS boys' basketball coach J.D. Secrest steps down
March 22, 2013
For the first time in seven years there will be a new face at the helm of the Marietta Tigers boys basketball team next season as J.D. Secrest has announced his resignation....
Coach showed his true colors in the comment - "I didn't want to leave the cupboard bare for whoever comes in after me." His cupboard wasn't bare, he had 12 young men who did their best. It is a shame that he didn't realize this at the outset of the season and maximize the contributions of all of his players. Good luck to future MHS boy's basketball players.

This is great news for players coming back next year. Maybe even some quality players that chose not to play this year will come back to the program now. I bet this year's seniors, along with parents and many Tiger fans wish Secrest would have done more than just "think about resigning" before this year!

Congrats to a quality coach.

What your experiences are with the link between heartburn and hair.. I know it's only an old wives tale but with both boys I had horrendous heartburn and both were born with plenty of hair.. Now I'm not complaining but I have had very little heartburn this time at all and I was wondering if that might mean she would be born bald!!
So.. Did you have heartburn and baby have lots of hair/no hair???
My previous experience tells me heartburn and hair do go hand in hand lol.. Xx

Is he really a believer?
Published: Wednesday, January 1, 2014 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 31, 2013 at 11:33 a.m.
Is biology professor Richard Dawkins actually a believer without knowing it?
In a video, at the pearly gate, Dawkins asked the man in the sky, "What kind of God are you? Thor-Zeus-Apollo-Yahweh or? Why did you conceal yourself?"
This is not a very profound enquiry from a serious scientist.
In fact, I am amazed that Richard Dawkins is regarded as a giant in the scientific community and can say that, "physical evidence of God is the necessary catalyst. If he existed and chose to reveal it, God himself could clinch the argument noisily and unequivocally in his favour."
This seems just as foolish as some religious beliefs Dawkins is trying to discredit, however justified.
Can he ever overcome the anger of childhood and early teen religious indoctrination, which he displays at every discussion as a Darwinian-evolution-atheist?
If Richard Dawkins argues for evolution with a passion and, that "natural selection is a cumulative process with graded ramps of slowly increasing complexity," then he advocates a creative process that necessitates mind-brain-intelligence to be able to choose and select. This requires software from a source.
The overwhelming evidence of intelligence in nature suggests the existence of an architect-creator, God.
And, if he started the universe with the big bang, then it is plausible that innate software is activated when planetary conditions are right for life to unfold.
But, I think, God will remain just as intangible and invisible.

UPDATE: "The Flash" Hasn't Cast Savitar, Says Berlanti
TV, Comic Books
With the increasing popularity of Comic-Con, perhaps now would be a good time to look at ways to disseminate and grow the audience of the brand by inviting the world to participate in the excitement and joy that attendees are privileged to experience. By beginning with something as basic as posting panel recordings online in a professionally branded setting, a quantum shift in perception could be created and a knowledge base for the brand, dramatically changing the world's perception of Comic-Con and expanding potential growth areas.
Like many others, I had an incredible time at Comic-Con last week, missing more good friends and events than I managed to see (and I saw a lot). I was blown away by the love and joy for comic books and ideas which was evident everywhere I looked. Somehow I didn't see any television of movie promotion (I know, it's crazy. I must have been looking wrong… or right) and my time was filled with exploring comic books and meeting comic book creators. It did occur to me however, that simply creating an increasingly crowded city cannot possibly be a cost-effective way to grow the brand. With over 130,000 people in attendance this year (and possibly twice as many people simply wandering the streets to take a look) it was disturbingly packed. Continue Reading »

A human being has a right to defend itself; survival is basic animal nature. Thus, gun control. Option 1, allow a federal government to "ban" both assault rifles and the ammunition that is necessary for an assault weapon to function. Sure, a few words on an obscure piece of legal paper might save you from being a victim of some psycho shooting an "assault weapon" at you. Option 2, "gun control." Under "gun control" option two, everybody returns fire at the aforementioned psycho. Result? Dead Psycho; no victims. Just remember, under the rules of Option 2, remain calm, aim for center mass on the psycho, and blow his ass away. No trial for psycho; no funerals for those crippled by federal gun control laws. Think about it.

SWIFTWATER — The Old Oaken Bucket game came down to one play — and one big hand by junior Marquis Brown.
Brown blocked an extra point with 31 seconds left to play as Pleasant Valley held on for a 14-13 victory over rival Pocono Mountain East on Friday night, winning its fourth straight Bucket game.
After watching Pocono East drive for what appeared to be the game-tying points, the 6-foot-5 defensive end Brown made the play of the night. Brown rushed between the long-snapper and the guard and blocked Vincent Clemson's extra point.
The home sideline fell to its knees, while another rejoiced.
"I lost five years of my life, for sure," said PV coach Jim Terwilliger. "For the last five minutes of that ballgame, I lost a year off my life. I knew it was going to be a hard-fought game, they always are for a rivalry game.
"You throw the records out. Pocono Mountain, Pleasant Valley, it wasn't pretty by any stretch, at all. It was a heck of a ballgame, and a heck of a way to win the Old Oaken Bucket and the tradition lived on tonight."
A sloppy game mired with turnovers, fumbles and penalties turned out to be a gem in the end. PV led 14-7 with under two minutes to play when Jordan Caffery's 21-yard field goal sailed to the left.
That gave the Cardinals life with the ball at their own 20. Senior quarterback Evan Fardella marched the Cards down the field converting a fourth-down pass to Steven Dienno and another long pass to RJ Sarajian to put the ball on PV's side of the field.
Fardella hit Dienno for a 17-yard TD pass, cutting PV's lead to 1, 14-13.
That's when Brown stepped up and blocked the biggest kick of his life.
"While they were about to kick it I'm thinking in my head, I'm about to block it," Brown said. "That's all I've been thinking. I did it before and in my head I'm saying I can do it again."
He did and PV walked out with a historic victory.

Definition of patriarchy in English:
noun (plural patriarchies)[mass noun]
