Hepatitis C lawsuit against former Kwiatkowski employer dismissed
The lawsuit was filed last year by Thomas D. Walters, who was diagnosed in 2012 with hepatitis C, and who later learned that he had contracted the disease when he was being treated at Hays Medical Center in Kansas. He claimed that he caught it when he was stuck with a needle that was previously used by David Kwiatkowski, who had hepatitis C.

9.1-20 Larceny by Library Theft -- § 53a-119 (12) and §§ 53a-122 through 53a-125b
Revised to April 23, 2010
Note: The degree of the larceny is determined by the value of the property stolen. See § 53a-122 (first degree); § 53a-123 (second degree); § 53a-124 (third degree); § 53a-125 (fourth degree); § 53a-125a (fifth degree); § 53a-125b (sixth degree). The dollar amounts for the degrees of larceny were increased as of October 1, 2009. See the table in Introduction to Larceny for the values in effect prior to that date.
The defendant is charged [in count __] with larceny by library theft in the (first / second / third / fourth / fifth / sixth) degree. Larceny simply means theft or stealing. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of library theft when (he/she) <insert appropriate subsection:>
§ 53a-119 (12) (A): conceals on (his/her) person or among (his/her) belongings a book or other archival library materials, belonging to, or deposited in, a library facility with the intention of removing the same from the library facility without authority.
§ 53a-119 (12) (A): without authority removes a book or other archival library materials from a library facility.
§ 53a-119 (12) (B): mutilates a book or other archival library materials belonging to, or deposited in, a library facility, so as to render it unusable or reduce its value.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Concealed, removed,
mutilated library materials
The first element is that the defendant (concealed with intent to remove / removed / mutilated) a book or other archival library materials.
The statute defines the term "book or other archival library materials" to include any book, plate, picture, photograph, engraving, painting, drawing, map, manuscript, document, letter, public record, microform, sound recording, audiovisual material in any format, magnetic or other tape, electronic data-processing record, artifact or other documentary, written or printed material regardless of physical form or characteristics, or any part thereof, belonging to, on loan to, or otherwise in the custody of a library facility.
"Library facility" means any public library, any library of an educational institution, organization or society, any museum, any repository of public records and any archives.
<Insert appropriate definition:>
To "conceal" means to hide, and it would include any actions that would render it more difficult to discover or identify the book.
To "mutilate" is to render a book imperfect by any physical act short of the total destruction of the book. Such mutilation must render the book unusable or reduce its value.
Element 2 - Larcenous Intent
The second element is that at the time the defendant (took / obtained / withheld) the property, (he/she) intended to <insert as appropriate:>
permanently deprive the owner of the public record.
permanently appropriate the public record to (himself/herself) or a third person.
<See Larceny, Instruction 9.1-1, for a full explanation of this element.>
Element 3 - Value1
The third element is that the property had a value that <insert as appropriate:>
First degree: exceeded $20,000.
Second degree: exceeded $10,000.
Third degree: exceeded $2,000.
Fourth degree: exceeded $1,000.
Fifth degree: exceeded $500.
Sixth degree: did not exceed $500.
<See Larceny, Instruction 9.1-1, for a full explanation of this element.>
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) the defendant (concealed with intent to remove / removed / mutilated) a book or other archival material from a library facility, 2) (he/she) did so intending to permanently deprive the library of its property, and 3) the value of the material was <insert value according to degree charged>.
If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
larceny by library theft, then you shall find the defendant guilty. On the
other hand, if you unanimously find that the state has failed to prove beyond a
reasonable doubt any of the elements, you shall then find the defendant not
If the defendant is charged with mutilating an item, the appropriate value would
be the reduction in value as a result of the mutilation.

In a victory for environmentalists, clean energy advocates and state regulators, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld California's clean-fuel standards in a 2-1 decision Wednesday. The fuel standard is a cornerstone of the state's groundbreaking efforts to reduce the climate change impacts of transportation, which accounts for 40 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the Golden State.
"Unless and until either the United States Supreme Court or the Congress forbids it, California is entitled to proceed on the understanding that global warming is being induced by rising carbon emissions and attempt to change that trend," wrote Judge Ronald Gould in the majority opinion. "California, if it is to have any chance to curtail greenhouse gas emissions, must be able to consider all factors that cause those emissions when it assesses alternative fuels."
The regulations, known as the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, were enacted in 2007 as part of AB32, the landmark global warming bill championed by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. The fuel standard requires the oil industry to gradually reduce the "carbon intensity" of transportation fuels like diesel and gasoline by at least 10 percent by 2020.
Californians already pay more for gas than any other state except Hawaii, with average prices at the pump above $4 a gallon and rising. Major fuel producers like Chevron and its allies, including the Western States Petroleum Association, have argued that the 2020 timeline can't be met without severe economic consequences, including a likely spike in gasoline prices that could gas rise to nearly $7.50 a gallon nationally by 2025. Critics also stress that alternative, low-carbon biofuels, particularly cellulosic ethanol made from materials like wood or grasses, are not being produced in high enough volumes to significantly offset the use of traditional fuels.
But clean air advocates, environmentalists, utilities and the auto industry have been strong supporters of the fuel standard, saying it's time for the oil industry to step up and do its part in the global challenge that is climate change. They note that utilities such as PG&E are well on their way to meeting a state mandate to purchase 33 percent of their electricity from renewable sources by 2020, while automakers have invested billions to manufacture electric cars and meet tough new fuel efficiency requirements, and say that diversifying the fuel mix must be a part of the overall effort.
"Today's victory ensures Californians are given better, cleaner choices at the fuel pump," said David Pettit, a senior attorney at the Natural Resources Defense Council. "This policy will spur American ingenuity to produce cleaner fuels with fewer impacts to our environment. The standard is working to reduce pollution while decreasing the state's reliance on oil."
In 2011, a federal judge in Fresno sided with an array of gas, trucking and farming industry interests and struck down the Low Carbon Fuel Standard as unconstitutional, saying it violated the federal Commerce Clause because it discriminated against out-of-state businesses like corn ethanol produced in the Midwest.
Wednesday's ruling rejects the argument that the fuel standard violates the Commerce Clause and sends the case back to Fresno for a trial on the real world economic impacts of the fuel standard.
The American Fuel and Petrochemicals Manufacturers, which represents manufacturers of gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and home heating oil, expressed disappointment with the decision.
"Although the LCFS is a California law, its broad reach and intended scope means that implementing the LCFS will have adverse consequences throughout the nation's fuel refining facilities and supply chain far beyond California's borders," said Charles Drevna, the group's president. "AFPM will be evaluating its options regarding further court proceedings in upcoming weeks."
Under the standard, fuels -- from gasoline to ethanol made from corn, sugar or cellulosic materials--are given carbon intensity "scores" by state regulators. Carbon intensity is measured by the entire life cycle of the fuel -- from the well to the wheel -- taking into account greenhouse gas emissions from extracting and refining to transporting the fuels to local gas stations. The main aim of the fuel standard is to push the oil industry to invest in new technology and cleaner fuels like electricity, biofuels, hydrogen and natural gas.

Pronounced: Kera-to-con-JUNK-tiv-eye-tis sick-ah
Maria Borowski, MA
Keratoconjunctivitis is a condition in which the membranes on the surface of the eye known as the conjunctiva become red and inflamed. The most common form of this condition is keratoconjunctivitis sicca. This occurs when the surface of the eye becomes dry due to a lack of quality tears.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
There are 2 main reasons that keratoconjunctivitis sicca occurs:
Keratoconjunctivitis sicca is more common in females. Other factors that may increase your chance of keratoconjunctivitis sicca:
The main symptom of keratoconjunctivitis sicca is discomfort in the eye. This soreness can range from mild to severe. Some other symptoms of keratoconjunctivitis sicca include:
Most cases of keratoconjunctivitis sicca cause only discomfort. However, in severe cases, the dryness in the eye can lead to damage to the cornea. If this occurs, it is possible that vision may be permanently lost.
Most of the time, the diagnosis of keratoconjunctivitis sicca is made by an eye specialist. An ophthalmologist is a physician who specializes in diseases and disorders of the eye.
The cause of the discomfort can be determined using specialized equipment to view the surface of the eye.
These special tests may include:
Treatment for keratoconjunctivitis sicca is often simple and effective. This involves keeping the eye moist and preserving the tears that are made naturally. Treatment methods used include:
It is not possible to prevent keratoconjunctivitis sicca. It is possible to prevent complications of keratoconjunctivitis sicca, such as infections, from developing. To help reduce the chance that the condition will worsen:
Most cases of keratoconjunctivitis sicca are not serious, and while uncomfortable and irritating, pose no real danger to the eye. However, it is still important to receive evaluation and diagnosis to prevent any of the more dangerous consequences of this condition.

What is the OpenOEM and what does it stand for?The idea of the OpenOEM is to help create the Free Computer, a computer where there are no secrets, all of the specifications are available and there is no restriction upon its use. This means that a person can buy a Free Computer and use it and change it to suit any need they might have.
Since I've written about the idea of a free computer and the idea of an OpenOEM I have received a lot of feedback from readers eager to contribute suggestions and offer help. If you go over to The OpenOEM Site you can see the great work that Kevin Dalvi has done on the website and forum so far.
It's important that everyone understands what is meant when we talk about free hardware
But what does this all mean? And where do we go from here?First of all we need to clarify exactly what the OpenOEM is and it's role in the world of free software and hardware. It's important that everyone understands what is meant when we refer to a free computer and free hardware.
So I would like to articulate the principles, objectives and ambitions of the OpenOEM Project here:
- Hardware should be open and free.
- People should be allowed to modify and adapt the hardware to suit their needs without restriction.
- To this end all specifications and information about the hardware should be available with the hardware, or be very easily available.
- Ownership of the OpenOEM should be held in trust for the community and by the community for everyone's benefit.
- To create the conditions where open and free hardware is easily and freely available for anyone to use.
- To create a standard specification for both fixed and mobile computing platforms which is open and transparent and which can be used by anyone to build an open computer.
- If necessary create a structure and organization to oversee the manufacture and distribution of free and open computers and hardware.
- Certify products to work within the open specification.
- To create the conditions where people everywhere take it for granted that they own and control their own hardware.
- Create a market for free and open hardware that provides real competition and fair prices for hardware.
- Create the conditions for people to contribute based upon their skills and desire and to show that contribution reflected.
- Create a community around these ideals that will be self sustaining.
I have always believed that true innovation does not come from companies but from people and we should do everything we can to allow people to innovate. I see no reason to treat the computer any differently. To many people this idea might not resonate with them until you realize how far computers reach into our very lives and how much we are affected by the computers we use every day.
We have all experienced anomalies or aberrant behaviour which is caused by bad or defective software and there is also software which tries to limit your ability to do something or restricts your rights to do something.Thankfully with software a person has options. They can replace the existing software on a computer with free software such as one of the BSD's, or one of the GNU/Linux distributions. This software is available for most CPU architectures currently available. However this only fixes some of the problems and does not always lead to an equitable solution when it comes to issues with hardware.
One of the biggest problems with the closed hardware paradigm is that the drivers provided for these devices often introduce bugs, cause instability and lead to security issues and yet it's almost impossible to fix these problems because the specification for these devices is closed and kept hidden. Users are at the mercy of the hardware manufacturer to distribute fixes (if they even do so) and, let's not forget, this is a problem which affects the entire computing world not just the free software side of the house.
Who needs these problems? Not me
Some computers now even have hardware restrictions built in. A good example of this is the new wave of DRM solutions which are now proliferating though-out the computer market place. If you replace the software than comes with the DRM enabled device there is a good chance that this specific device will no-longer work and, believe it or not, in some cases this DRM will cause the whole computer to operate in a reduced capacity. This is not a very nice way to behave and it is profoundly disrespectful to the user.
We need to change this.
Many of these proposed Digital Rights don't seem to benefit the consumer at all and they certainly have no place on a personal computer. For example, if a person buys a HD-DVD Disc with a movie on it and attempts to play it in a HD-DVD equipped computer with a high quality display; which does not have the HDMI hardware on board, even though the display may have the ability to output a higher resolution than HD, the player will automatically downgrade the signal. The same is true for audio under the new version of Microsoft Windows which has just been released.
The attitude which leads to this is just plain wrong, but laws such as the DMCA prevent us from fixing our hardware. I suppose we could all simply ignore it by not including such broken hardware from the start or maybe, just maybe, we should design our own hardware devices which do not include such defects. An open and free hardware specification would never be able to have DRM built in since it is open and transparent and so such defects would be easily detected and then repaired with alacrity.
Things like DRM and its cousins can only exist in the shadows, out of sight and in secret. Fortunately, like all dark and cowardly ideas, when you shine a light onto it; it loses all of its power.
So that is what the OpenOEM represents: a chance to make a truly free computer which is free as in freedom. It allows us to illuminate every part of the design of a computer and to get it to work as we feel it should. It gives power back to the user in ways that haven't existed for a long time. It has the potential to redefine the relationship between the user and the computer. It is also an open forum for anybody to contribute and there will be lively debate, of that I am sure. Every topic is open for discussion, from the base motherboard designs, system software, graphics, sound, networking, form factor, aesthetics and ergonomics, in short everything. It stands to reason that the best people to design a computer are the ones who will use it.
This is the first step on the road to creating free and open computing devices.
So there is an open forum at The OpenOEM Site please drop in and help define and build the future.
I think it's the ultimate itch begging for a scratching.
DMCA only protects copyright
DMCA only protects copyright protecting TPMs.
If you can produce an HD-DVD then with you being the copyright owner of your own work, you can disable, decrypt, or circumvent whatever TPMs your computer may retain. You cannot get prosecuted for fixing your machine to display your own work at the resolution it is capable of.
Therefore, the challenge is first to create your own HD-DVD.
If you then released it copyleft everyone else would then be free to fix their own machines because they have your license to full access of your copyrighted work.
Good for you
Good for you.
For the likes of dell and hp with propietary or low quality oem products it is about time someone did this type of project.
Just the beginning....
I think the project is a great idea. It is just the start of an open source future I think. Open Cell Phone , Open Router , Open HouseHold Solar Generator, etc... the start of a Digital Renaissance. Download and print out electronics devices with a 3D printer/fabrication device...
[email protected] and MIT's FabLab are on the way to this. I cant wait for these devices to help projects like this really become a reality.
Putting innovation 100% back into individuals hands, I wholeheartedly agree that business by design does not innovate and progress, and I look forward to the time when individuals once again have control of ideas and their implementations only this time in a networked world.
Open and Free
I've been watching the open graphics project for some time and I'm glad a comprehensive project like this is on it's way! Best of luck.

Hardware or hardware deisgn?
I'm fairly certain you are not proposing free hardware, but an open design, would Princeiple #1 be better stated:
"Hardware design should be open and free"
free hardware
hw with open design is undestood to have freedom, thus free hardware or hardware libre
The last few years has seen a major software company ranting & raving about "Innovation."
That same company licenses [sells?] software that can be extremely difficult to diagnose & repair in even relatively minor problems because the process(es) are usually hidden from the licensed operator/user of the software.
Oddly enough, that company has often used the word 'transparent' to describe the 'ease' w/ which the operator/user can accomplish their desired activities w/ that company's various soft/hard-ware products.
Obviously, the open-source solution can provide a new paradigm even for solving the inevitable problems that complicated software/hardware devices [i.e., computers & others] will continue to exhibit.
I commend your goal of reducing [eliminating?] the unduly restrictive & hidden handicaps that some proprietary hardware & its attendant designs place on the legitimate use of equipment, tools, & hardware that was paid for & therefor entitles that 'payer,' user, or owner to, in the fullest sense of the word, the USE of what they've paid for [bought?].
In the final analysis, the ongoing trends to deliberately handicap the legitimate use of hardware constitutes deliberate attempts to deprive people of their property rights.
As long as the present system of governance exists, the rights of property owners will, to some degree, be in conflict w/ the rights of some copyright holders.
If those copyright holders wish to limit the use of their products, certainly that is within their rights to do so.
It is NOT within their rights to attempt to limit my legitimate use of property, i.e., hardware, that does not belong to them. In short, yours, mine, & ours.
In addition to open source hardware, maybe its time to consider eliminating even the use of such standards as CD-ROMs for copyrighted material. As long as the 'copyrights' holders can claim that their use of such standards is legal, they will continue to attempt the illegitimate restrictions of such standards for their own profit, at the expense of others.
Hopefully, these ideas will prompt more discussion.
A brilliant idea
I've thought lots about things like this recently, and I was very happy when I was told on the Free Software Foundation Associate Member Forum about this project. It's certainly needed.
Is there any hardware already existing that conforms to this idea of free hardware, or does this project face the tedious task of building everything from the ground up?
I hope this project is successful, and that truly open computers can be made available around the world. Once we can offer a computer which has no compatibility issues with free software, and which anyone has the right to study/use/modify, freedom will have been greatly furthered and DRM will hang by a thread (albeit a strong thread, since consumers will still be forced to use patent-infested hardware to play such things as music and movies, which I doubt the big companies will release under in a free format).
I commend this project, and hope I can be useful! I'm now going to look at the forums.

SAN JOSE -- The Sharks decided that eight defensemen in San Jose were one too many Sunday and sent Nick Petrecki to their Worcester development team for conditioning.
The move is considered a loan, and therefore Petrecki did not have to go through waivers, where he could have been claimed by another team. The Sharks lost left wing Frazer McLaren last week when he was picked up by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Petrecki, whose only action came in the Jan. 29 game against Anaheim, also stays on the 23-man roster and continues to earn his NHL salary.
With Jason Demers healthy and Matt Irwin -- for one game at least -- moved into the seventh slot as insurance, Petrecki wasn't likely to see action at the NHL level.
Demers' ice time in his first game back was 18:48, and he was credited with four hits, one blocked shot and one take-away. He said he felt good about his first game back after recovering from a wrist injury suffered in Europe.
"They say the first period you kind of feel tired, but in the second I felt good and in the third I had my legs and all that," Demers said. "The battle part of it, when you start pushing guys, you can't re-create that in practice. That kind of plays into fatigue, but I felt good."
Demers' return prompted coach Todd McLellan to mix up his defense pairing up. Demers skated alongside Marc-Edouard Vlasic, and that put Brad Stuart and Dan Boyle together for the first time, leaving Irwin as the odd man out.
"We have to be fluid," McLellan said. "We're always fluid on the front end and you see that. But we have to be able to be fluid on the back end as well. People say why are they breaking up the pairs and why are they doing this and that. Well, we're going to have to be that at some point, and we have to be able to find out a little bit about people."
Monday night's game against the Ducks is the first of back-to-backs and McLellan indicated he would likely be using backup Thomas Greiss in one of the games.
With the Chicago Blackhawks as the opponent Tuesday night in San Jose, Greiss would seem to be the probable choice to face the Ducks, but the coach would not tip his hand.
"Two teams I really don't follow," said the proud Buffalo Bills backer.
The Bills, of course, reached the Super Bowl four consecutive years, but came away without the trophy from 1991 to 1994. Any memories at all?
"I was aware of it a little bit. It was the same time the Jays were good, too," said Couture, a Toronto Blue Jays fan as well. "It was my heyday back then. I was about 3 or 4 years old."

Man Facing Drug Charges Flushes His Confession on Officer's Recorder Down Toilet
Digital recorder swiped while deputy not looking.
Published: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 10:12 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 10:12 p.m.
LAKELAND | "Tighten up on your job, homie."
That's what 30-year-old Patrick Townsend said while saluting a Polk County sheriff's detective after he flushed a digital recorder containing his confession down a toilet in the sheriff's substation, according to an arrest affidavit.
The affidavit says Townsend, who lives in Lakeland, was arrested Wednesday after a deputy found 32.4 grams of methamphetamine in his boxers during a traffic stop for not wearing a seat belt.
Before being transferred to the substation, Townsend told the deputy, "Dude, that ain't -----. I deal with keys (kilos)," and went into detail about the grade and types of methamphetamine the deputy found, according to the report.
A second affidavit states that a recording was taken of Townsend's confession, and the digital recorder was placed on a desk in the lobby of the substation. When no one was looking, Townsend grabbed the recorder, tucked it in his armpit and asked to go to the bathroom, according to the report.
After hurriedly flushing the device down the toilet, Townsend, who was handcuffed in the front, was escorted back to the lobby, where Detective Justin Starr was searching for his recorder.
Deputies say Townsend looked into Starr's face and said, "What are you looking for, Starr, your recorder?" and winked at the detective.
When confronted about taking the recorder, Townsend admitted to what he had done.
"You know what, Starr? I learned something today," Townsend said, according to the report.
"I will never incriminate myself again."
Townsend is being held in the Polk County Jail without bail, charged with trafficking meth, possession of cannabis and destroying evidence, among other charges.

An attack on free speech
RALEIGH, N.C. — North Carolina is giving Steve Cooksey some choices. He can stop speaking. Or he can get a Ph.D. in nutrition, or a medical degree, or a bachelor's degree in nutrition and then pass an examination after completing a 900-hour clinical internship. Or he can skip this onerous credentialing, keep speaking, and risk prosecution.
He has chosen instead to get a lawyer. His case, argued by the libertarians at the Institute for Justice (IJ), will clarify the First Amendment's relevance to an ancient human behavior and a modern technology.

The issue I am running into is with my .mkv files. Most have been playing, but some do not. I've found that with some if I changed the Sound Bitrate setting to 256 they will play. But other not matter what I change it too, one of two things will happen: a) I just get the file is Corrupt message or b) the video will play with no sound (which alerts me that the bitrate is too low). Only message I get from the tracers is that it is transcoding, no errors or the like. Any ideas? Other then that great software that is very easy to use!

The Queens TASC Mental Health Diversion Program partners with the courts, the defense bar, and treatment providers to serve as a bridge that connects the criminal justice system with effective assessment and treatment services.
The program provides access to comprehensive mental health services to mentally ill predicate felons and/or first time felony offenders who may benefit from diversion options, for a minimum of twelve months, under court mandate. Typically, services include intensive psychiatric monitoring, psychotropic medication, medical coverage, financial support, socialization skills and work readiness training. In addition, about half of these defendants are in need of housing, thus requiring placement in residential facilities that provide board and treatment.
Defendants in the program are expected to remain compliant with treatment recommendations and services, to remain abstinent from drugs and to remain free of new arrests or charges for the duration of the court mandate.

The best way to write, preview, and publish your blog.
Think Outside The Browser
Browser-based interfaces are slow, clumsy, and require you to be connected to the internet just to use them. Browsers are perfect for reading web content, but not so great for creating it.
If you're serious about your blog, you need a desktop blog editor. If you're lucky enough to have a Mac, nothing is more powerful or more elegant than MarsEdit.

I used to use MarsEdit on a daily basis, but I didn't keep up with the custom field changes inside of WordPress. Then I noticed that MarsEdit drafts wouldn't sync automatically between my various machines. Simultaneously, the WordPress editor keeps getting better and better.
Today I made the decision to use "Moe" for all of my posts (draft them locally in Markdown) and then use the WordPress online editor for the actual posting process.
Don't forget to increase the size of your Wordpress "Post" box: Settings > Writing > Size of Post Box: 23 works great on a 13" MacBooks.

Hi webdigr - lots of folks are using it :) I don't know why comments have been light here. Maybe everybody thinks enough has been said!
Strangely, there're no comments for the last 2 years, almost!
Have people stopped using this? or is there some better blog editor out there?
It's been my blogger app for two years now. And the new update (2.3) includes Tumblr support too.
Stable. Great features and support. :)
this is awesome and works nicely with blogger. only problem is that line breaks aren't translated properly in some instances.
Great application. Really makes it so much easier to manage your blog. Add in support for editing pages and I'm sold. :-)
this app -as someone else says - makes blogging as easy as sending emails - takes the pain out of keeping things up to date - and it avoids (i use wordpress) the temptation to endlessly tinker with themes and sidebars etc. as someone else said tho' if it could take care of pages as well as posts it would be near perfect.
really great application. makes keeping a blog tolerable - very fluid.
Tried this and liked it but it's a little short on features. i found ecto to have a better feature set but at the cost of a slightly less attractive interface. Ecto is also quite a bit cheaper.
The WordPress built-in editor liked to eat up, chew, and spit out weird things whenever I edited a post. I went looking for a solution and found this. Now I am happy. When the developer adds support for editing Pages as well as Entries, I'll be ecstatic.

Knitter's Review
December 9, 2010
One-skein projects are all the rage. Your time is limited and your budget tight. You're looking for projects you can achieve with just one skein.
For all the focus on one-skein projects, there's appallingly little focus on one-skein yarns—that is, those yarns that are so extraordinary, special, and delightful that just one skein is all you need for a completely fulfilling knitting experience.
And what are those yarns? I've got a list.

Remedios Varo
Chris recommended Janet Kaplan's biography Unexpected Journeys: The Art and Life of Remedios Varo, but I haven't yet been able to get hold of a copy, so I have relied on a few Internet resources to educate myself, including a collection of images, a detailed chronology of her life, an article about an exhibition, and this essay about Varo's scientific influences.
Varo grew up in Spain, lived in Paris, and eventually settled in Mexico after spending time in a Nazi internment camp after the occupation of France. She associated with various members of the artistic and literary avant-gardes wherever she lived, and specifically identified herself with the surrealists.
Varo's technique is continually described as "meticulous" -- she tended to like miniatures, and her approach is said to be closer to that used for egg tempera than for oil painting. Most of her work seems to have the kind of vehemently pictorial surface common to the most popular surrealists, but many of the paintings also remind me of medieval and Northern Renaissance images in some of their shapes and approach to perspective.
Some of Varo's paintings come awfully close to a sort of kitschiness that I associate with some of Dali's work, but few of Varo's paintings seem to me to descend quite to the same level of camp, because there is a naivety to her work that is quite charming, as well as a sense of humor (I particularly like her vegetarian vampires).
4 comments:
Since you like Varo and are interested in her surface treatment and the elements suggestive of Medieval and Renaissance influences, you really ought to know about the paintings of Steve Cieslawski. He is known in the book world for his jacket paintings and illustrations (Richard Peck's A Year Down Under, Jean Karl's The Search for the Ten-Winged Dragon, etc.) but has been concentrating entirely on his oil painting since 2001.ReplyDelete
You can take a look at his two solo shows at CFM gallery by going to http://www.cfmgallery.com/artists/Ceislawski/Cieslawski2004Exhibit.html and http://www.cfmgallery.com/artists/Ceislawski/index.html. If you're going to be in New York, go see his new show, up through November 27th. Here's a preview: http://www.cfmgallery.com/artists/Ceislawski/Cieslawski2005Exhibit.html. (Hope I copied those right, complete with misspellings--if not, google his name and the gallery.)
On the page for the first solo show, there's an appreciation by Teresa del Conde, Director of the Museo de Arte Contemporario in Mexico City. She visited Steve's studio in Oaxaca before she wrote the essay, and in it she compares him to Varo: "Some of the colors and settings used by the artist remind me of Caspar David Friedrich, who can be considered a forerunner of the late 19th century Symbolist Movement, while others are linked to Surrealism in many ways. One can see a relationship to the imagination of Remedios Varo, as well."
I'm very lucky to own the oil painting done for the jacket of one of my books--Steve dropped it by my editor's office and asked for it to be sent to me because he liked the book, and the oil now hangs close by me when I'm writing. That's not a usual action from an illustrator, and I have continued to be grateful for and to take great pleasure in the gift. I would describe its surface as you do a Varo--"meticulous." Teresa del Conde also mentions a link to Vermeer: "Indeed, it is a joy to see paintings so carefully achieved with layers and layers and layers of pigment, as in the paintings by Vermeer of Delft. They are pleasant to the eye and to the mind." And, in fact, Vermeer was the first painter who sprang to mind when I first saw Steve Cieslawsk's skies and sun and the light falling on drapery and faces.
His paintings are polished and reward a very close inspection. So if you're in New York before the 27th, go by CFM gallery...

Anne Kenyon was born July 1, 1920, the same day the great Walter Johnson pitched a no-hitter against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park.
Nearly 92 years later, Kenyon delivered a baseball highlight of her own.
The grandmother of 10 and great grandmother of 15 snagged a foul ball at a recent San Jose Giants game, hanging with a high popup even as her less courageous family members scurried for cover.
Kenyon was sitting in general admission seats slightly up the first-base line on June 15 at San Jose Municipal Stadium when ... well, let's let turn it over to her for the play by play:
"I see this foul ball going up in the air and I thought, 'Oh, my goodness, this thing is going to come right down on my head.' So I sort of moved over just a notch, a couple of inches to my left.
"I don't know whatever possessed me, but I put my arm out, automatically. And before you know it I looked and the ball fell right in my hand. I caught the ball.
"And that was it."
The ball took a high carom off the seats first, a very lucky bounce. "Otherwise it would have crushed her," daughter Anne Marie Barletta said.
The original foul off the bat of the Modesto Nuts batter had soared so high that the seven other family members in attendance ducked. "When we came up from cover, my mom had this ridiculous smile on her face," Barletta. "And she says, 'I caught the ball!'''
The fifth-inning defensive gem made Kenyon a celebrity by the time she left the park. Even as she was being escorted down the stadium stairs, other fans kept asking, "Are you the lady who caught the ball?"
"And she was beaming. 'Yes, I am,'" Barletta said. "It was priceless."
Kenyon continued her show and tell back at the Atria Senior Living community in Willow Glen, where she has lived for the past six years. She brought the ball down for breakfast. Then brought it out again at dinner.
Kenyon, turns 92 on Sunday — making her the near equivalent of two Jamie Moyers. She's been trying hard to make a late-life conversion to being a Giants fan, but the East Coast native still prefers her New York Yankees.
"The only thing that would have made this better," Barletta said, "is if it had come off of Derek Jeter's bat."

I use this in preference to Quicksilver as I find it quicker and more discrete
Me too on "Can't live without it." It finds Entourage contacts faster than Entourage. It doesn't just launch stuff; you can move files to folders, drop Finder selection onto apps, run scripts...I have been using it for years and I am still discovering new stuff. Oh, and the search templates for Amazon, VersionTracker, IMDB, etc., are just superb. I hit Ctrl-space, type "Amaz", space, my search terms, return, and I'm on Amazon with search results displayed. Or "vt" for VersionTracker. I'll have to set one up for iusethis.com!
I loved paying for this application. Seriously. I so appreciated it that it gave me great satisfaction to pay the developers. I think I had one update I might have paid for -- I enjoyed that too.
It is rock, rock solid. Seamless. Never bothers me. Always works. Brilliant innovation. Use the most simple modes immediately, scale as needed.
Now if only they'd do an XP version ...
I am also a long-time LaunchBar user and I've tried QuickSilver on and off but still came back to LaunchBar. It just seems faster, more stable and does everything I need. Well there is one thing that I miss about QuickSilver and that's being able to copy passwords directly from the keychain. I wish LaunchBar could do this.
I looked at this and quicksilver. But for what I do - launching applications, all I need is launchbar and it's quicker. Too bad it doesn't have the same following as quicksilver.
I tried Quicksilver on and off. It doesn look better, but LaunchBar just has the better keyboard shortcuts and everything makes more sense.
It's just easier to e.g. look up an item at macupdate.com or in wikipedia via Launchbar than via Quicksilver. File operations, too, are handled better in LaunchBar. This is the one app I cannot live without. If I am stranded on a Mac without LB, I really feel endlessly annoyed having to launch apps via the Finder or the Dock only.
I like it, but it just doesn't offer the features in quicksilver that get me going. It'd be the first thing I'd point my dad or girlfriend to, though :P
I have been using LaunchBar for more than 3 years now and this is one of the best applications I have ever seen. While I agree with jgaynor that to get used to it QuickSilver is a good and free app to get used to the concept, but i have tried out QuickSilver a bunch of times now, but have always gone back to LaunchBar which to me is still faster and snappier than QuickSilver. QuickSilver just has too much clutter in its interface, LaunchBar is very simple and streight forward.
I used to use this religously - and there's no doubt it's a well-designed application. However, I recommend that anyone looking for their first keyboard-based launcher take a look at QuickSilver.

I was attacked by the socialite PC mob today...
Yo, I'm new here, just seems like this board is pretty rad, so I'll post a few times maybe.
Anyway, on with the tale of woe.
Yesterday was International AIDS Awareness day. They 'celebrated' it today in school by -once again- passing around
with red ribbons on them. Then they give out these little pieces of paper describing their movement to help create awareness in everyone about AIDS in my school in Maine (not exactly the most ethnically diverse population to say the least *cough*96% white*cough*.) First, I got to watch everyone throw out their pieces of paper, and attatch the ribbons to their shirts, without reading the note. Then, I watched in horror as the people on the AIDS committee, instead of going further and actually making an attempt to educate others, started to talk about who was going out with whom, and who was taking whom to the winter formal dance. So I chose not to wear a ribbon.
Why? I'll tell you.
I care about these people, ANY people, who are suffering, to the extent that I sacrifice as much as I can mentally and emotionally to helping at least ease the tension and help educate some people. Yes, not everyone can be saved, but that doesn't mean I don't need to help anyone I can. I care about people who live with the constant threat of AIDS their entire lives every single day of the year. I think about these people. And yet, as I walk by their "informational table" near the cafeteria, I am heckled and attacked by several members of the table. Well okay, I guess I was asking for trouble. I stopped and looked at some of their pamphlets. Herein is the conversation that took place (I'm in italics):
"HEY! WHY aren't you wearing a ribbon?"
"I view AIDS as population control."
(Okay, I admit that this wasn't the best way to try and have an enlightening conversation with someoen of reasonable intelligence, but I was only kidding, as you'll soon see.)
"He did not just say that."
"I'm sorry, I was kidding. I choose not to wear a ribbon because I don't need to wear a piece of fabric to make sure others know where my allegiances lie when helping others."
"Every day more than 25 people die of AIDS [let us hope she means the US alone..] and half of the people with AIDS are born with it, and they have no idea they grow up with it. You need to wear a ribbon to show sympathy for those who grow up with this tragic epidemic. You need to let them know that you take one day out of your life to care for them."
"So what about the other 50%?"
"You know, the other half not born with AIDS that contract it from sexual intercourse and needle sharing, among other methods."
"Well they are a problem too."
"They're a problem? I thought they were the victims of this."
"Yes, they are, people don't show their support and don't try to educate everyone on the problems of AIDS and why it's so deadly. People in other countries grow up not knowing that AIDS is even affecting them."
"I see, well what do you suggest?"
"Wear a ribbon."
"You misunderstand, what do you suggest we should do about this problem?"
"Educate people, and provide them with alternatives."
"I see, well I for one support the production and distribution of condoms wholesale and freely to 'developing countries' as they're called, third-world countries with these problems. But US foreign policy at this juncture in time is against providing humanitarian aid to countries with such 'safe-sex' alternatives. If a country provides condoms to its people free of charge, they don't get money or food or medication. Trojanz condoms recently moved to Canada to manufacture its latex products because they could not export the condoms from the US without high fees and tariffs, set in place to prevent such "un-taxed, unethical" distribution of health care."
"You're just trying to start problems Tom." (It was at this point I recognized her from my latin class a year ago.)
"Also, what about needle use? Here in America, people who use needles for intraveneous drugs cannot acquire needles without a perscription. Politicians believe that stopping the sale of clean needles will curb the use of illegal narcotics. Unfortunately, this only means that drug users will turn to dirty needles and sharing, dangerous to say the least. I'm sure you know the implications of what I'm saying [at least I hope she did.. she didn't], people will keep doing these drugs, and stopping the sale of needles is not the way to stop the use. This is not the time for a debate about drug criminal law, so let it be said that pressure must be applied to the people in Washington and in our capital to start finding alternatives to abstinance programs in moral choices."
"Tom you need to wear a pin. You're saying that you're selfish and don't care about people if you don't."
"How about this, I continue caring about these people, as I do everyday, 365 days a year, well you guys continue celebrating 'days' and anniversaries, and changing your cause every other week becuase someone on MTV decided to do something cool for someone who's being opressed."
"So you won't wear a pin? You're a bastard and you're wasting my time."
"Quite. Fare thee well, I must away."
Ugh, the PC fascists strike again.

Haha, that's pretty dope. You should have told her, "See, I've been nice since you had to put ya hat in ya sleeve/ and break arms like Segal, don't wear ya heart on ya sleeve."
The whole pinning AIDS/Breast Cancer/patriot/etc. ribbons to your lapel thing always seemed awfully similar to the armbands that Nazis made their "undesirables" wear prior to WWII, right down to the color coordination.

Yea, I'm sketchy on the title of my thread. It's insignificant, but they're selecting their cause in a PC-like manner, correct? Trying to care about everyone, affirmative action, blah blah blah, but what they're doing rarely helps at all, causes more racial and ethnic tension by saying "look, they're different!" (
is a good example although a satire, tell me if that link is broken) and sometimes causes more problems. Case in point, the people in third-world countries they're trying to save are the ones that manufactured those new nikes and abercrombie shirts they all had on at the table (yea, they color- and clothing-coordinated. To the poster who drew a parallel with Nazi Germany, it's looking more and more like it every day.)

Nah, I think the real "politically correctness" fad came and went, but earnest world-changing diatribes and making social awareness into a club is something that will be alive on college campuses forever.

What do you mean about Affirmative action being PC?

Affirmative action doesn't do what it's intended to do. By making people "more aware" of other cultures through mass media, it only acheives alienation of the specific group. It points them out and says "HEY LOOK AT ME IM SPECIAL WOOO!!" which isn't necessarily the best way to go. Just let everyone live their lives peacably I say, and let everyone express themselves and their roots as they deem fit. Not what someone on TV tells them to do.
But don't ask me, I'm just a white-bred honkey from New England.

Yes, Affirmative Action is part of the 10 Commandments in the PC handbook, but there are many different types of A.A. Most rational people agree that preferences and quotas based on race are retroactive, and could create backlash and/or a perpetuation of discrimination, but Affirmative Action that enlarges the pool of applicants is sound in every way. Instead of handing a less qualified applicant a job over somebody who is a better choice, this type of A.A. simply puts everybody on equal footing, and then fair job/school competition can proceed from there. In a society where the lower classes are entrenched in a cycle of poverty, substandard education, and few opportunities in life, Affirmative Action which levels the playing field is in my opinion, required.

STOCKTON - Two armed men robbed a business in the 10300 block of Trinity Parkway about 12:30 a.m. Thursday, police said.
The robbers forced one employee inside the business and ordered a second employee to empty two safes, police said. The robbers then fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Both robbers were described as black men 19 to 24 years old with black handguns, authorities said. One was 5 feet 10 inches tall with a thin build, a black hooded sweatshirt, dark jeans, white shoes and a black baseball hat. The other was 5 feet 8 inches tall with a thin build, a black sweatshirt over a dark blue hooded sweatshirt, dark jeans and black gloves.

CORPUS CHRISTI – Myeisha Myles' winning shot with 2.4 seconds left lifted the Texas A&M - Corpus Christi women's basketball (8-14, 4-5) team past Northwestern State, 88-86, Saturday night at the American Bank Center.

After a bucket by Myles, Williams triggered a three to give Northwestern State a four-point cushion. Taylor's layup and-one pulled the Islanders within one with 8:15 to play. The Islanders answered with a 4-0 run to pull ahead by one, 73-72 with 7:28. The teams traded baskets back and forth until Taylor's three-pointer gave the Islanders a two-point advantage.

Board tweaks quorum policy
Proposes only one member be physically present at meetings
January 24, 2013
PARKERSBURG —Wood County school board officials continued Tuesday to tweak a policy affecting quorum at meetings....
don't show for meeting=not getting a check...see how many phone it in then..
4 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
So, "rightfacts" what if the person is in the hospital, is traveling due to their job, or some other thing they cannot control? Obviously phone attendance is not physical attendance, but at least they could still participate with the changes.
3 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
BOE members were elected KNOWING the job requirements. Shameful to suggest that phone attendance counts. When a person is on the phone and not physically present, how can one "read their faces" and SEE what they are saying non-verbally? Will BOE members still get paid? Wood County BOE members get $160.00 per meeting, regardless of the length of the meeting. Will attendance by phone still allow them to get a paycheck? Some serious questions for the Parkersburg News to ask. Looks like the Wood County BOE wants to go the way of the Wood County Commission. Cut the number of meetings, or better yet call in instead of being there. Just watch---it will pass--because those who want it are those who get to do the voting. What about We The People!! Ask the people what they would like. Sad state of affairs for a group who likes to micro-manage the schools and now they don't want to even come to the meetings. Remember this at the next election. VOTE them ALL OUT!!!

Run for Public Office. Claim to be interested and want to make a positive impact on their organization. And than don't have "time" to attend the meetings. Give us a break phone attendance is not physical attendance. Show up or resign. Parkersburg News find out what the Salary is for the BOE? Let the public know.

Don't forget, though, that there's a chance they're wrong.
- Finally, Mike Allen just sent word that all of you who are U.S. subscribers to Mythic Delirium should email him and confirm how many issues are left in your subscription.

BEIRUT (AP) -- Syria's government is finding itself under increasing pressure from inside and outside the country.
The country's interior minister cut short his treatment at a hospital in Lebanon today and flew home -- because he was afraid he was going to be arrested by Lebanese authorities. He was undergoing treatment for injuries suffered in a bombing attack on his headquarters.
A top Lebanese security official says the interior minister was rushed out of Lebanon after authorities received information that international arrest warrants could be issued against him because of his role in the deadly crackdown against protesters in Syria.
Meanwhile, Syria's chief of military police has quit and is joining the opposition. He becomes one of the most senior members of Bashar Assad's regime to join the opposition during the 21-month-old revolt against him.
Assad is also seeing military setbacks, with government bases falling to rebels near Damascus and elsewhere across the country. Activists today say rebels have launched an attack on a military base in northern Syria, near a strategic town. The base has been under siege for weeks.

Amazon Buys Game Developer Double Helix
Amazon.com has bought videogame developer Double Helix for an undisclosed sum, bolstering recent efforts to build a presence in that software market.
The Seattle-based online retailer plans to retain Double Helix's roughly 75 employees. Both Amazon and Double Helix confirmed the acquisition late Wednesday, though they declined to give many details.
Amazon made the deal for Double Helix "as part of our ongoing commitment to build innovative games," an Amazon spokeswoman said. Double Helix made the fighting game Killer Instinct, which was released at the same time as Microsoft's Xbox One last year.
The deal for Double Helix, which is based in Irvine, Calif., may play into Amazon's ambitions to roll out a set-top box. Plans for such a device, which is likely to have some gaming capabilities, were described by people familiar with the plan last year. Amazon has declined to discuss its set-top box development.
Amazon introduced a game studio in 2012, which has gone on to release several games including Living Classics for Facebook and Air Patriots in the Google Play store. It has been bulking up its game development staff and lists job openings for numerous programming and engineering jobs.
TechCrunch reported the deal earlier Wednesday.

UPDATE: District refuses to pay teacher's $500,000 legal bills
Published: Tuesday, July 22, 2014 at 1:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 22, 2014 at 1:26 p.m.
SARASOTA COUNTY - The Sarasota County School Board refused Tuesday to pay a nearly $500,000 legal tab for a former special education teacher who was exonerated on child abuse charges.
School Board members voted unanimously against paying Diana O'Neill's attorney fees during a Tuesday meeting. But officials agreed to allow their lawyer, Art Hardy, to file a motion asking the courts if the school system is financially responsible, and if so, how much it would owe.
The $477,463 expenses stemmed from a civil suit filed by the parents of one of O'Neill's former students.
The former teacher was arrested on charges of child abuse after she was accused of mistreating her special-needs students at Venice Elementary in 2008. She was found not guilty by a jury in 2009.
O'Neill asked the district to pay for legal fees incurred from a lawsuit filed by Debbie and Jimmy Hatfield. A U.S. District Court magistrate judge dismissed their lawsuit against O'Neill in April just before trial, court records show.
The district also had been sued by the Hatfields. But in 2011, the district settled for $52,500 and the lawsuit was dropped, although the Hatfields could still seek damages from O'Neill.
In their suit, the Hatfields accused O'Neill of slapping, pinching, poking and shoving their daughter, who had been brain-damaged as an infant. The girl could not walk, talk or see.
The district unsuccessfully tried to fire O'Neill, who returned to the classroom and now teaches adult GED students.
