Day 5: Open World Wrap-up
By nwooler on Sep 24, 2010
I had a great time this week at Oracle Open World. It is quite a show with over 47K attendees spread over 4 city blocks with great sessions and conversations about Identity Management and many other cutting edge technologies. I am definitely in powerpoint overload and would be happy not to see another slide for awhile but the information was great! We have collected some of the photos from the sessions up on our Facebook page here. Here is just one of the pictures from the concert on Treasure Island with the Black Eyed Peas, The Steve Miller Band and Don Henley. It was a great concert.
The presentations were all taped and should be up on the website shortly. Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available. If you followed us on Twitter, please let us know what you think by sending us messages.
The Verizon presentation on Directory Server Enterprise Edition and using Fracational Replication was a highlight for me. It should have been scheduled earlier in the week so that more people could have attended. Verizon has one of the largest directory deployments in the world with 40+ million identities and many partners and LOB's using it as their repository. The Verizon deployment is also a great example of using Fractional Replication to empower LOB's with their own identity repository but allowing the central team to maintain the control over the data. Verizon is also a great example of using SSO to reduce cost and maintain a great User Experience across many different portals. Madhu, thanks for sharing such great information with the identity management community. I will post the presentation once it is available on the website.

Robert Babekian, the longtime owner of Midtown Shoe Repair in Palo Alto, prides himself on making unhappy souls -- and soles -- happy.
"They come in upset," he said. "They go out smiling."
But on Monday, Babekian was the one who entered the shop at 2796 Middlefield Road with a frown on his face.
He said he arrived at 7:15 a.m. to find handbags strewn across the floor, a rack of belts overturned and his cash register empty. The burglary was a first for Babekian, who took over the business 35 years ago.
"I have no experience of somebody breaking in," he said. "It felt so bad."
The burglar or burglars pried open the back door sometime between Sunday night and Monday morning, Babekian said, as he showed a reporter the twisted remains of a deadbolt.
Babekian has since reinforced the door with a wooden crossbar and installed additional locks to prevent another break-in.
"This can't happen again," he said.
Babekian said he filed a report with police and has insurance to cover the burglary, but he doesn't know exactly what was stolen. As the sole employee, he has his hands full and keeps only loose tabs on his inventory.
"I don't do accounting," he said with a laugh. "We just buy and sell."
Babekian pegged the value of the missing merchandise -- suitcases, purses and shoe insoles -- at a minimum of $1,000. The cash register was also emptied of $300 to $400, he said.
Several of Babekian's customers expressed outrage over the burglary. Carrie Manley, a resident of Palo Alto, said the shop helps make the Midtown neighborhood a "great place to live and do business."
"While his business may be 'small,' he has the biggest heart; whenever my 88-year-old mom comes for a visit, we always stop at his shop, because he treats her like a queen," Manley wrote in an email. "It makes me sick to think of someone breaking into his place and stealing stuff."
Agent Marco Estrada of the Palo Alto Police Department said there haven't been any more burglaries than usual in the area. However, he was surprised to learn that the break-in was a first for Babekian.
"It's uncommon," Estrada said. "But it can happen any time or any place."
It didn't take long for Babekian to find a silver lining. He recently received a luggage shipment, part of which was still piled up in a hallway leading from the back door to the front of the shop. Whoever broke in was forced instead to walk through a narrow kitchen and a cluttered workshop.
"If this was open, they could've gotten a lot of stuff out," said Babekian, gesturing to the hallway.
"It's no big deal," he said about the burglary. "The main thing is: I'm OK, I can bring it back."

The spread of spiny water fleas to another Minnesota lake highlights how an invasive species can spread.
The Duluth News Tribune reports scientists believe the foreign species crossed the ocean in the ballast water of saltwater ships. They've been confirmed in Lake Superior since 1987, and now the Department of Natural Resources confirms they've reached Shagawa Lake near Ely.
DNR aquatic invasive species specialist Rich Rezanka says more than 50 Minnesota lakes and rivers are now infested.
Spiny water fleas disrupt the food chain because they compete with small fish for plankton.
When populations are high, anglers can experience frustration with masses of spiny water fleas clogging fishing lines and other water equipment. So it's critical that anglers remove them and avoid transporting them to other waters.

Glitter and glue are what give this craft its magical sparkle. Glitter glue pens can be used as well if time is an issue.
Watch all your favorite shows weekdays on Nick Jr.
Cover the work area and floor with an old sheet or brown packing paper. This will make for an easier cleanup. Pour glitter into individual coffee filters and place them (and several spoons for each color) in the center of the work area. Kids will use these to sprinkle the glitter onto their craft.
Pass out sheets of black or dark blue construction paper; this will serve as the sky for their fireworks.
Show the children how to squeeze lines of non-toxic glue into patterns to create their fireworks. Kids can make one big design on their paper, or they can fill the page with different-sized shapes and designs.
To add color, kids should use spoons to scoop glitter from the coffee filters and sprinkle it onto the glue designs. Kids can also sprinkle glitter directly from the coffee filter onto their glue design, but only with your help, to avoid spillage.

 Once all glue patterns are covered with glitter, set aside to dry for at least an hour, or until the glue has dried (the glue is dry when it's translucent and no longer white).
To reveal the colorful firework designs, have each child shake their page over the sheeted or papered table. Any glitter which didn't adhere to the glue should fall off. Use the fan brush (which you can find in the paint department of an art-supply store) to help kids gently brush away any excess glitter.

 Glitter pens can be used in the place of regular glitter, if you want to minimize drying and cleanup time.
To create fun party decorations, have kids can cut around their design in a circular shape.
Pass out the popsicle sticks and let kids glue the cut out pieces to the sticks.

 When the glue dries, kids can wave them at the local parade, or you can use them to decorate your July 4th party table!

CORPUS CHRISTI – Gergo Weidinger has been named the GoIslanders.com Student-Athlete of the Week, presented by Pepsi. Weidinger earned the award after putting together a strong week against New Orleans and Oral Roberts.
Weidinger helped the Islanders to their first two Southland Conference wins of the year against New Orleans and Oral Roberts. In the first league match of the season, Weidinger won a 6-1, 6-0 final at No. 2 singles to help his team to a 5-2 win over UNO. It was the final SLC match of the year for UNO, and it kept the Islanders alive for their sixth straight Southland title.
On Easter Sunday, Weidinger did another good job of getting a quick win to help his team against ORU. He won 6-2, 6-2 at the No. 2 position in singles, and teamed up with Peter Nagy for an 8-3 final at No. 1 double to clinch the point for his team.
The Islanders are currently ranked No. 59 in the NCAA Division I national rankings administered by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association, and are in first place as the only undefeated team in Southland Conference matches.
Next up for Weidinger and the men's tennis team is a non-conference matchup against Louisiana - Lafayette on April 5, at the Thomas J. Henry Tennis Center.

Valley Unit: Whilworlh Fumes, BIA Admits Mistake Tribal Councilman Fred Whitworth calls the first year's cutting the the Valley Logging Unit "an outrage" and asks for closer Council control over the reservation forestry program. Arlee: "This is an outrage, a damned outrage," Tribal Councilman Fred Whitworth, Arlee, muttered as he picked his way between the slush of honeycombed roads and slash from fallen trees. "This" was the Valley logging Unit, 3 6,3 26 acres of timbered hills which trace the southern reservation boundary between Dixon and Arlee. The 81.3 mil-Lion board feet of the unit were sold last January to the Van Evan Company of Missoula for $4,9 21 ,339. The contract for the Valley's timber will run 8 years. Cutting in the Valley Unit began last March but there had been some misgiving about the way the timber was to be harvested. Whitworth, who has a cattle ranch just below the lower boundaries of the cutting area, lias been critical of the Valley Mission Creek Vanishes MISSION CREEK DRIED UP TO A TRICKLE EARLIER THIS MONTH. St. Ignatius: During the first week of February, a lot of people who live along Mission Creek noticed something was missing ....Mission Creek. That's right. For about five days, from February 6 to Feb-rurary 11 there was hardly any flow at all through St. Ignatius and for a few days even the upper creek was just wet enough to gtaze the rocks. A dried up creek is a serious thing. People along the creek rely on it for a great number of things from mood to winter stock water and fish and aquatic animals rely on it for their very lives. Last May the Reservation Ranger attempted to restore the fisheries in the creek by planting 7,700 fingerling trout. According to Reservation Fisheries Ranger, Dave Harriman, these fish, which had (cont. on r»a?e 16 ) Unit sale since it was proposed in the fall of 19 7 2 . He voted against accepting the contract on the largest single timber sale in the history of the reservation because, as he told the Council then, "We don't know what a high-volume, long term project like this is going to do to our game range and water shed".

But those who did show up at Mission earlier this month agree that some changes in the Tribe's old constitution are necessary. More meetings are scheduled for Poison, Hot Springs and Ronar Dayton and Big Arm district was cancelled because of the death of James Kallowat. The Elmo meeting will be rescheduled. The third meeting in the series is planned for the Poison area district Feb. 16 at the Pol-son Community Center. The fourth will be Feb. 21 at the Hot Springs Bath House for the Hot Springs, Camas District. As yet, the Constitutional Committee has taken no action on changing the tribe's 39 yea" old constitution. Instead, the five men and five women of the St. Ignatius: A reservation-wide series of Constitutional Committee district meetings got off to a slow start this month with a "disappointing" turnout of tribal members in Mission and a cancelled meeting in Elmo. Committee Chairman Doug Allard, St. Ignatius, told a group of 2 5 to 5 0 persons at Kai-Kai-Shi Center in Mission that "it is disappointing to find so few people interested in the government of their tribe. This (the Constitutional Convention) committee was set up to propose changes in your con stitution and we are going to need all the help and support we can get." he said. The Feb. 2 meeting for the Mission and Dixon districts was the first of six district meetings planned for the entire reservation. A Need Election Reforms Most members who attended the Mission-Dixon meeting seemed to feel that the 1935 constitution was basically adequate and should not be changed.

Actress Ruby Dee Is Dead at 91
Ruby Dee, the veteran actress and civil rights activist, died at her home in New Rochelle, New York, Wednesday night. She was 91.
Born Ruby Ann Wallace in Cleveland on Oct. 27, 1922, Ms. Dee was a pioneering actress at a time when few African-American women were being considered for leading film and stage roles. She was married to actor Ossie Davis, and they were prominent civil rights advocates.
Ms. Dee and Mr. Davis were known both for their performances, having shared the radio show "The Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee Story Hour," and for their political activism. They were personal friends of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Malcolm X, and served as masters of ceremonies at Dr. King's historic March on Washington in 1963.
To mark the 50th anniversary of the march on Washington last year, Ms. Dee described the scene to the Washington Post: "As far as the eye could see – people, from where we were standing to the Lincoln Memorial. People. A sea of people."
As an actress, Ms. Dee won an Emmy Award for the television film "Decoration Day," and shared a Grammy Award with Mr. Davis for best spoken word album for "With Ossie And Ruby: In This Life Together." She won a Screen Actors Guild Award and was nominated for an Academy Award for "American Gangster" in 2008.
She performed in the 1959 Broadway premiere of Lorraine Hansberry's "A Raisin in the Sun," playing Ruth Younger, wife to Sidney Poitier's Walter Lee Younger. She also played the role in the 1961 film adaptation.
"She is one of my heroines and made so much possible for generations of black actors that have followed her path, notwithstanding all the incredible civil rights work she has done too," actress Sophie Okonedo, who won a Tony Award Sunday night for playing Ruth in the current Broadway production, said in a statement.
Audra McDonald, who played Ruth in a 2004 Broadway revival of "Raisin," acknowledged Ms. Dee in her Tony Award acceptance speech Sunday, for "Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill." "I want to thank all the shoulders of the strong and brave and courageous women that I am standing on," Ms. McDonald said on stage at Radio City Music Hall, before thanking Ms. Dee.
Kenny Leon, director of the current revival of "Raisin," said "we have lost another Tall Tree," after news of Ms. Dee's passing. "Maya and Ruby leave us only days apart – those two women with four letter names instructed us on how to live."
Ms. Dee married her first husband, blues singer Frankie Dee, and kept his surname after they divorced. She married Mr. Davis in 1948 and together they had three children: daughters Nora Day Davis and Hasna Muhammad Davis, and son Guy Davis.

BAYFIELD � Concerned the Wolverines were becoming too predictable on offense, Bayfield head volleyball coach Kelley Rifilato tweaked her lineup.
This time, right in the middle of homecoming week � and just minutes before Tuesday night�s Intermountain League match against archrival Pagosa Springs.
The result was an all-too-predictable 3-0 victory for the suddenly unpredictable Wolverines, who protected their No. 4 state ranking and their perfect conference record (6-0).
�We talked in depth about not being transparent so that everyone knows where you are going (on offense),� Rifilato said after the Wolverines beat Pagosa Springs 25-13, 25-12, 25-19 to improve to 14-2 overall.
�The biggest thing was splitting Jen (Phelps) and Kirstie (Hillyer) opposite each other for the first time all year,� Rifilato said.
That prompted a move of Kayla J. McCoy to the right side, giving the Wolverines, at times, a blocking wall of the 6-5 Hillyer and the 6-1 McCoy.
�And Jen just looks so at home in the middle,� Rifilato said of Phelps, a four-year senior starter who played extensively in the middle the last three seasons.
�I say that�s what I love about an undersized middle blocker (Phelps) is that they are so fast they make the tall people look super slow motion,� said Rifilato, who started Phelps front and center against the Pirates.
With the versatile Lindsey Reinmuth digging out of the middle back position, which she played for the first time Tuesday night, the Wolverines triggered a quick-hitting offense to complement the wall of blockers.
Sophomore setter Suzie Rhodes spread the ball in the new rotation with indefensible balance � 36 assists in all.
Phelps finished with 14 kills on 23 attacks with one error.
Hillyer finished with 12 kills on 23 attacks with two errors.
�I think the balance of having Jen and Kirstie opposite helps us,� Rifilato said.
�But it started with that right-side block. Having 6-1 and 6-5 in front of you ... alters every shot,� Rifilato said.
Reinmuth added six kills for the Wolverines, including a blast from the back row.
Layne Bulwan hammered seven kills to support the defensive digs from Jordyn Harrison, Reinmuth and Kayla D. McCoy.
Rifilato said she told the Bayfield setter she needed more than quality sets and good decisions.
�I told her your job is to get your hitters 1-on-1. There were a lot of times she did that ... in the middle and on the outside,� Rifilato said of an IML match the Wolverines never trailed.
�I definitely like having Kayla J. on the right side with me,� said Rhodes, daughter of Carl and Karen Rhodes.
�And it�s great with Kirstie and Jen in the middle,� she said.
�Jen is an awesome player. She�s always there to pick me up,� said the sophomore, who added it�s her coach that offers the most help.
�She (Rifilato) helps me a lot on the court. She helps me run our offense,� Rhodes said.
�The kids are fine with (the lineup changes),� Rifilato said. �They know I�m just trying to light a fire ... get a spark.�
In addition to the new-look offense, Bayfield tossed another unpredictable element at the Pirates midway through Tuesday�s match when a bat slipped into the BHS gym and performed high-speed aerial maneuvers through the rafters before settling in to watch the rest of the Wolverines� victory.

I'm trying to find the code in PS3 Media Server that reads the content of a folder and add the files to the children list.
Maybe it could sound strange but I can't find this code...
Please, anyone knows where PS3 Media Server check the type of a file (RealFile, DVDISOFile, etc.) and adds it to the children list?
I'm trying to make some changes to the DVDISOFile behaviour.
Thanks in advance.

You all have great arguements for veryouse toons but i much preffer a Duid they make exellent Tanks & healers if you can acheive the right Talent build lol

I think the idea here is that your respect for these classes is based on the general difficulty and utility of each class. Giving little respect to a class because it is played mostly by little brats as alts isn't really valid. Any class is played by idiot kids that have no clue what is going on. Any class, played poorly, is not worthy of respect.
I love how people gave such little respect to Death Knights, when most of the people rating will probably never see Heroic ToGC25 or ICC to even understand what each class is even capable of in end-game content. And yea... you guys respect mages, warriors, and priests? These classes are all comparable. Only tough rotations on here are enhance shammy and feral druid dps, the rest are pretty much easy.

Always have to respect healers and tanks in a raid situation. However, in PvP i least respect pallys and priests, I think warlocks are underrated, if you play one at high level you know how hard the aggro issues are. Mages lol come on now, respected i think not. Extreme minimal rotation, ice block, evocate, i could go on but i will stop.

With the U.S. Military reporting a record number of amputations, researchers around the globe are working frantically to find the best way to fill the void left behind.
In a video posted today to the website ProChan, we can all see exactly what kind of answers these researchers have landed.

"Nigel Ackland, 53, has been fitted with the Terminator-like carbon fibre mechanical hand which he can control with movements in his upper arm. The new bebionic3 myoelectric hand, which is also made from aluminium and alloy knuckles, moves like a real human limb by responding to Nigel's muscle twitches."
As you can see now, he's been restored to some level of normalcy. Ackland says it's not only helped him on the job, but it's improved his morale, as well.

Rum and Sherry Cocktails: The DR Daiquiri and DR ManhattanSaturday, February 16th, 2013
I recently did some experimenting with amontillado sherry and Dominican Republic rum. While I do not drink it nearly often enough, sherry might be my favorite wine – it has amazing complex flavors. Rum of course is something I ingest rather more than my fair share of. It seemed efficient to try to combine my rum and sherry drinking, hopefully to the benefit of both liquids.

After having a meeting last night, it has been determined that we will use a qualifying system in order to determine individual spots on the team. In order to qualify, you have the opportunity of turning in up to three recorded rounds. The best score of your turned in rounds will be for team placement.
The Rounds:
Players will have the opportunity to record rounds on each of the following Sundays(Mar-4,11&18th). Tee time for these rounds will be at 10:15 a.m. The course to be played for recoding rounds is as follows: Stable Run(ISU) The back 9 will be played twice, short to long, and then long to long. This course layout was determined to be the course most resembling Ewing Park.
If you cannot make these dates, pm me and we will try to accommodate a time of your choice to get a round in. I will only accept recorded rounds with certain individuals as witnesses. So don't go card a 45 and try to turn it in to me. Even if you can't make the predetemined dates to qualify, you still may be able to turn in three rounds if you can get proper verification of your scores.
Scores can be turned in no later than 2:00p.m. Sunday the 18th. We will then have a meeting on the following Tuesday(20th), in order to figure out the best doubles and quads teams.
Hope to see you all on Sunday!!

6.2-2 Threatening in the First Degree (Reckless) -- § 53a-61aa (a) (1) (B) and (a) (2) (B)
Revised to June 12, 2009
The defendant is charged [in count __] with threatening in the first degree. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of threatening in the first degree when such person threatens to commit <insert appropriate subsection:>
§ 53a-61aa (a) (1) (B): any crime involving the use of a hazardous substance
§ 53a-61aa (a) (2) (B): any crime of violence
in reckless disregard of the risk of <insert as appropriate:>
terrorizing another person.1
ausing evacuation of a building, place of assembly or facility of public transportation.
causing serious public inconvenience.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Threatened to
commit a crime
The first element is that the defendant threatened to commit (any crime involving the use of a hazardous substance / any crime of violence). <Insert appropriate definition:>
A hazardous substance is any physical, chemical, biological or radiological substance or matter which, because of its quantity, concentration or physical, chemical or infectious characteristics, may cause or significantly contribute to an increase in mortality or an increase in serious irreversible or incapacitating reversible illness, or pose a substantial present or potential hazard to human health.
A crime of violence is one in which physical force is exerted for the purpose of violating, injuring, damaging, or abusing person or property.
A threat can only be punishable when it is a true threat, that is, a threat that a reasonable person would understand as a serious expression of an intent to harm or assault, and not as mere puffery, bluster, jest or hyperbole. In determining whether the threat is a true threat, consider the particular factual context in which the allegedly threatening conduct occurred which could include the reaction of the person allegedly being threatened and the defendant's conduct before and after the allegedly threatening conduct.2
Element 2 - Recklessness
The second element is that the defendant acted in reckless disregard of the risk that this threat would (terrorize another person / cause evacuation of a building, place of assembly or facility of public transportation / cause serious public inconvenience). [To terrorize means to cause intense fear or apprehension.3]
A person acts "recklessly" with respect to a result or circumstances when (he/she) is aware of and consciously disregards a substantial and unjustifiable risk that such result will occur or that such circumstances exist. <See Recklessness, Instruction 2.3-4.>
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) the defendant threatened to commit (any crime involving the use of a hazardous substance / any crime of violence), and 2) (he/she) acted with reckless disregard of the risk of (terrorizing another person / causing evacuation of a building, place of assembly or facility of public transportation / causing serious public inconvenience).
If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
threatening in the first degree, 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 guilty.
1 The element "to terrorize another person" is only applicable when the crime threatened is one involving the use of a hazardous substance.
2 See State v. DeLoreto, 265 Conn. 145, 154 (2003); State v. Crudup, 81 Conn. App. 248, 260, cert. denied, 268 Conn. 913 (2004).

SAN JOSE -- For decades a zone of low-slung research-and-development buildings, North San Jose is being transformed into an urban transit village and tech hub.
City officials envision thousands of new housing units, millions of square feet of new office and research spaces and additional retail, restaurants and recreation spaces -- all served by BART and light rail. Their hope is that North San Jose will become the bustling heart of Silicon Valley.
"North San Jose will become more of a place where you can live and also work, and a place that is much more walkable," said San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed, who often is credited as the chief architect of the emerging, denser north side. "You can get people closer to work. They don't have to drive as far."
After nearly 10 years of planning and preparation, the first steps of the transformation of 5,000 acres in North San Jose are coming into view. The city's economic development staff estimates that $2.8 billion worth of new projects are underway there or about to start.
City officials envision 26.7 million square feet of additional office and research space coming to North San Jose in the next 15 years, along with 32,000 more housing units, 2.7 million square feet of retail and 550 new hotel rooms.
The ambitious plan would add office space equivalent to the size of 10 to 15 Valley Fair shopping centers. It would increase office and research space on the north side by 58 percent, nearly double the amount of retail, raise the number of hotel rooms by 20 percent, and more than triple the number of residential units, according to city estimates.
But crucial to the city's success in transforming North San Jose will be attracting high-profile companies. That effort recently got a boost when Samsung broke ground on what is expected to be an iconic campus on First Street near East Tasman Drive. The complex will be dominated by a pair of 10-story office towers and total 680,000 square feet.
That followed the move last year of Polycom, which relocated its headquarters from Pleasanton to a site near Highway 237 and Great America Parkway.
Samsung says its new campus will include both "urban" and "garden" areas. Set alongside the light-rail system, the campus will feature a large "city plaza" of stone pavers, water features and large-scale art elements. A "sports garden" will feature native trees, sports courts and clearings. About 2,000 Samsung employees are expected to work at the complex once it opens in 2015.
"The new campus will consolidate a number of Samsung organizations within one building, while helping to accommodate the rapid growth that we are planning in Silicon Valley," said Chris Goodhart, a spokeswoman for Samsung. "This prime location will allow us to continue to draw from talent throughout Silicon Valley."
Kim Walesh, San Jose's director of economic development, said the new Samsung campus "is the perfect project to signal what the new North San Jose will be all about. It is dense, it is walkable, they are new-generation buildings."
But the biggest game changer on the drawing boards for North San Jose is the proposal by realty firm Peery Arrillaga to develop a 2 million-square-foot complex of 10 buildings of seven stories each where up to 10,000 people could work.
"Peery Arrillaga is moving as fast as they can to prepare for this project," the mayor said. "We think they will get their basic permits in January and start construction shortly thereafter."
To encourage more projects and corporate expansions in North San Jose, city officials have slashed development fees, cut red tape for developers and are allowing higher density than was previously permitted.
In addition to new development, several builders, including Bixby Land, are renovating existing office properties that have attracted new tenants to North San Jose, including Nimble Storage.
"Higher density is the future, and if the demand is there, then it makes sense to build more in North San Jose," said Chad Leiker, a vice president with realty firm Kidder Mathews. "San Jose is betting on light rail and on BART to really make this work."
Little opposition to the build-out of North San Jose has emerged in recent years, although the neighboring towns of Santa Clara and Milpitas, along with Santa Clara County, sued San Jose in 2005 over the anticipated traffic congestion the new developments would create beyond San Jose's borders. A 2007 settlement obliges San Jose to widen Montague Expressway, including sections in Santa Clara and Milpitas.
"The judge ruled cities have a responsibility to coordinate with each other and make a good-faith effort to mitigate impacts in other jurisdictions," said San Jose Transportation Director Hans Larsen.
While that challenge was resolved, others remain. City Councilman Kansen Chu, whose District 4 includes North San Jose, said the area is caught in "kind of a chicken-and-egg game."
He said the area needs more stores, shops and other retail businesses for it to be attractive to residents, and at the same time needs more residents to make the area attractive to retailers.
Another challenge is stiff competition for tech companies from Palo Alto, Sunnyvale, Mountain View and Santa Clara. But San Jose officials hope the north side's plentiful land will give the city an edge.
"The idea is to create a there there," said Nanci Klein, San Jose's deputy economic development director. "There should be a central place for Silicon Valley. And it makes sense for North San Jose to be the center of that."

BRENTWOOD -- Within minutes of the Brentwood Police Activities League Youth Drop-in Center opening this week, local youth Sandeep Patra and Elijah Lawrence were already engaged in a friendly game of checkers.
Patra, a Heritage High School freshman, said that it is a cool place for area kids to hang out after school instead of at home alone or on the streets.
"It is usually a boring time. They are at places that they shouldn't be or getting into trouble," Patra noted.
Brentwood Police Officer Roger Wilson hopes that other Brentwood youth from 10 to 14 years of age agree and find a safe haven at the new center, which is at the Edna Hill Middle School campus. Working with youth through law enforcement for nearly three decades, Wilson said that he has heard from adolescents how boredom can lead to misbehavior and crime during after-school hours.
"If a community wants to be together and to work with the youth, we can do it and it doesn't cost a penny," he said at the grand opening on Monday.
Most of the center's arts and craft items, furniture, DVDs, musical instruments, books and games were donated to the PAL program by residents, community groups, schools and local organizations. Brentwood is only the second PAL program to operate a youth center in Contra Costa County, according to PAL leaders.
"This is good stuff," Brentwood Mayor Bob Taylor said. "You are going to have some fun here."
Brentwood Union School District Superintendent Merrill Grant said that the district is proud to have this center located at Edna Hill. He added that the district's focus is to educate the whole child with an emphasis on responsibility and good citizenship.
"This is a great facility that will be in action all day," Grant said.
Edna Hill seventh-grader Asanti Patton said that the center is a quiet place to do homework or gather with friends.
"It's awesome," she said. "It will help a lot of people. I have been telling people about it."
To attend the center, students must join the National Association of Police Athletic/Activities League's mentoring program and they will be assigned a mentor who will meet with them regularly.
"Mentoring is the push today," Wilson said. "We have so many youth looking for big brothers and big sisters."

What: PAL Youth Drop-in Center
When: Open weekdays 3 to 6 p.m. for youths 10-14 involved in the PAL program

Did you know?
Lesotho's ponies are famed for their sure-footedness and pony treks into the mountains are a popular attraction.
The Maloti-Drakensberg Heritage Route is a joint eco-tourism initiative between South Africa and the Kingdom of Lesotho. The route features approximately 13 000km2 of the most awe-inspiring mountain scenery along South Africa's north-eastern border with Lesotho, including parts of the Drakensberg Mountains on the KwaZulu-Natal side, a Lesotho national park and the Ukhahlamba-Drakensberg World Heritage Site.
Famous names like the Amphitheatre and Giant's Castle fall within its ambit and if you're a hiker or nature lover, you will fall in love with the wild all over again as you amble along the contour paths that criss-cross these popular and scenic parts of the Drakensberg range.
More than 22 000 San rock art paintings, recording the daily lives and spiritual adventures of the so-called First People, are to be found on this route,
In summer, the Maloti Drakensberg Heritage Route is a place of extraordinary beauty – pistachio-green grasslands, high twists of montane forest, clear streams, a fairy world of tree ferns and mosses that begs to be explored on foot.
But winter is when the mountains are at their grandest, their most implacably majestic, covered in a fondant-white snow and beckoning adventurers to take to their slopes at Afriski or watch raptors soaring above the escarpment at Sani Pass.
Travel tips & Planning info
Who to contact
Maloti-Drakensberg Heritage Route
Cell: +27 (0)83 320 0081
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
How to get here
One of the most convenient starting points is Clarens in the Free State, a three-hour drive from Johannesburg. But if you'd prefer to start from the Eastern Cape side (there's an airport in Port Elizabeth), head for the mountains near Lady Grey and Tiffindell.
Best time to visit
Bear in mind winter can get really cold and some of the roads may be closed by snow. Summer is a mild, beautiful time, enlivened by wicked thunderstorms. November and December are particularly lovely because of the wild flowers that bloom.
Around the area
Must-sees in the area include Cathedral Peak, Champagne Castle and the Royal Natal National Park, the Amphitheatre, Sentinel, Eastern Buttress and Mont-aux-Sources – the summit of which can be reached via a 100-rung chain ladder.
Tours to do
If you have two days or more to spare, consider a guided pony trek in Lesotho. You can do an overnight tour, staying in a Basotho village.
Get around
Hiring your own vehicle is best if you want to fully explore the route.
Length of stay
Dedicate at least five days to this experience.
What to pack
In winter, bring your warmest woollies. In summer, light clothes and perhaps a raincoat for the thunderstorms. You will want your camera and lightweight binoculars. And don't forget your passport for forays into Lesotho.
Where to stay
There is a range of accomodation available all along the route, from hotels and B&Bs to basic camp sites.

OAKLAND -- The A's ducked the rain, celebrated back-to-back division titles and started yet another promising season of baseball in the cold, dank, loud Coliseum on Monday.
Same as it ever was, with a slight twist.
Yes, this is when the A's tortured relationship with the Coliseum has to move from rage and depression to benign acquiescence.
This is the reality that even A's co-owners John Fisher and Lew Wolff have tacitly begun to accept:
The A's dream of moving to San Jose is all but barricaded, at least for the foreseeable future.
The votes aren't there. The lawsuit filed by the city of San Jose against Major League Baseball has gotten no traction and in fact has only inflamed the other owners against the idea.
So Major League Baseball is not willing to overturn the Giants' territorial rights.
The move to San Jose -- as it stands now and probably for at least as long as Fisher and Wolff own the A's -- is not happening.
Which means that Wolff and Fisher are now seeking a lease extension with the Coliseum through 2025 and offering to sink many millions into stadium improvements.
Basically, the A's are resetting their sights, and embracing their old site, yet again.
And that actually is happening, in subtle ways, including the wry way the players deal with the recent sewage backups in the clubhouse.
The most recent example: Just last Saturday, when rains caused a problem in the coaches' offices and several players joked about it on Twitter.
As the storm pounded the stadium on Monday afternoon, I asked manager Bob Melvin if there had been any sewage issues.
"I've seen none," Melvin said with a smile.
The crucial thing, Melvin said, is that he and his players don't obsess over the Coliseum creature uncomforts.
"Our guys have fun with it," Melvin said. "It's not like they complain about it. We do have issues here, and they deal with it, and they look at this place as our place ...
"Whether it was last year in the dugout when we had to stand outside of it, didn't affect us. I think they handle it the right way.
"It would be one thing if everybody was complaining about it, and it was a disadvantage for us. But I think in some ways it can be an advantage for us."
That's exactly the right way for everybody in the organization to handle this.
I actually believe that general manager Billy Beane -- never a man to be behind the curve -- already has set a new course.
Though Beane at one point envisioned new stadium money pouring in by 2016 or 2017, which would lead to Wolff and Fisher sanctioning a much higher payroll ... that's not on the horizon now.
The A's will go for it this season because the roster is good enough and still inexpensive enough, and for now that's a good position.
This is who the A's are. It's not changing anytime soon.
For months, every credible independent source I've talked to about the A's future has insisted that there is almost zero chance that a move to San Jose will be approved.
Specifically, these sources -- all involved with the highest levels of the sport -- say that the A's chances at a San Jose move were always distant.
And after the lawsuit filed against Major League Baseball by the city of San Jose, the idea of a move has essentially lost any ownership support they might have ever had.
By the way, when I say "independent," that means these sources are not affiliated with the Giants, who, of course, have an immense vested interest in this.
These sources also emphasize that Fisher and Wolff have not endeared themselves to other owners by crying poor while simultaneously collecting massive revenue-sharing checks -- $30 million per year or more -- and turning very nice profits.
Same as it ever was. Same place, same smart G.M., same payroll, same building, same owners.
It's time everybody got used to it, all over again.

There's an increase in demand for Neighborhood Watch groups in Lauderdale County. Currently, there are about a dozen of these active within the county. However, there's a growing interest to establish more.
Facebook and instant messaging, these are two things that Lauderdale County Chief Deputy Ward Calhoun says are prompting the increase in demand.
'You know we live in an era today where information is almost instantaneous,' says Chief Deputy Ward Calhoun. 'Sometimes there are people who are putting information about crimes that happened at their homes on Facebook or other social media outlets before they even call us or before we ever arrive to their house. It makes it feel more personable to people and as a consequence I think they are thinking about that more.'
Calhoun says another likely reason for the increase in demand for Neighborhood Watch groups is the spike in crimes involving juveniles.
"Because juvenile crime is on the rise. It has been in our community. We see the increase not necessarily in the number of juveniles, but in the number of crimes those juveniles are committing. Many times we know that adults or young adults will use juveniles to commit crimes because they realize that if they are caught, the penalty for that juvenile is much less severe than it is for that adult."
With school back in session for most in our area, Calhoun says it's important to alert authorities if you see school age children wandering in neighborhoods.
'When you see someone of school age and they're not in school and they're out walking in the street, there's a reason. They're supposed to be in school. Now there are young people who are taught at home or who may be out for a sickness of some kind that prevents them from going to school, but they should be at their home; they shouldn't be walking around the community. One thing that is certain is that if all of us don't work together, we're going to fall individually. We've got to work together as a community to fight crime.'
Lauderdale County residents interested in starting a Neighborhood Watch in their community need to call the sheriff's department at (601) 482-9806. Be sure to tune in Sunday for our 'On The Record,' program when the Chief Deputy Calhoun shares some more crime fighting tips.

How did these stars align?
Damon Thomas and Kim Kardashian married when she was only 20 years old. Damon was 30 at the time and worked with artists like Pink and Faith Evans.
GET THE STORY: Kim Kardashian & Kanye West ENGAGED!

Kim and Kanye met around the time of her marriage to Damon. Kim officially ended their relationship in divorce.

Kanye invited Kim to many of his events. Here Kim Kardashian and her friends Paris Hilton, and Nick Cannon party as Kanye West celebrates inclusion on the 67th Annual International Best-Dressed List.

Kim and ex-boyefriend Ray J's sex tape eventually surfaces on the Internet, and Kardashian sues...
GET THE STORY: Kim Kardashian & Kanye West ENGAGED!
Kim and Kanye were photographed together for the first time at the opening of Intermix in Beverly Hills - but at the time was dating Reggie Bush. Kanye was engaged to Alexis Phifer.
Even then Kanye couldn't take his eyes off Kim. They both attended Flaunt Magazine's 10th Anniversary Party and Annual Holiday Toy Drive. Kourtney came too!
Both fashion fanatics, Kim, Reggie, and Kanye, sat near each other at the Y-3 show at New York Fashion Week. This was also when Kanye went public with his new girlfriend Amber Rose. If only they had a crystal ball.
While Kim was looking for love, Kanye West and Amber Rose were one of the hottest couple in the industry.
After going on a few dates with model Gabriel Aubry, Kardashian started seeing NBA player Kris Humphries. He kept it a secret, but this was when 'Ye fell in love with Kimmy K. He sang about it in his song "Cold."
As Kanye fell in love with Kim, things heat up between her and Kris Humphries. She was his own personal cheerleader at games!
Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian were falling head over heels...
But at times they didn't see eye to eye. Kris wasn't used to always being in the spotlight, and even before the wedding they had their disagreements.
After 90 days of being engaged, Kim married Kris Humphries in an over-the-top, lavish affair at an estate in Montecito, California. Would you expect nothing less? Who would have thought there relationship would only last 72 days...
Photo: YouTube
It's official! Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were official!; although Kim was technically still in the divorce process with Kris Humphries. Here they are at Paris Fashion Week 2012.
KimYe did everything together. Here they are at a Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets game.
KimYe made their red carpet debut at the Cannes Film Festival. Check 'Ye out! Kim definitely had something to do with that outfit!
On "Oprah's Next Chapter," Oprah asked Kim about her new relationship. She said he fits the bill, but she wasn't thinking about marriage just yet.
They attended the BET Awards together, and sat next none other than Jay-Z and Queen Bey. Front row royalty right here.

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are sighted leaving at Prime 112 Steakhouse in Miami Beach, Florida. Kim is used to having her private life exposed; Kanye on the other hand does not have the patience for that...

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian celebrate New Year's Eve, when Kanye first gave the baby clue. Kardashian later confirmed the baby news in a blog post titled,"New Year, New Beginnings." "It's true!! Kanye and I are expecting a baby. We feel so blessed and lucky and wish that in addition to both of our families, his mom and my dad could be here to celebrate this special time with us."
After an absurdly long court battle, Kardashian's 72-day marriage to Humphries is legally over... 535 days after she initially filed for divorce. A divorce that lasted longer than the marriage!
Kim's ex-boyfriend Ray J came out with a song called "I Hit It First" many believed was directed at Kim and Kanye, although Ray J denied that. But that's hard to believe with a Kim K look-a-like in the music video...
Photo: Youtube
The couple hits the red carpet for the Costume Institute Gala's "PUNK: Chaos to Couture" exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Her look is widely panned ... in fact, so is her entire maternity wardrobe.
Kim Kardashian slowly grows bigger, bigger before our eyes...
Kardashian is feted at a bridal shower and West makes an appearance, sneaking past photographers with a sweatshirt over his head. That night during the premiere of Season 8 of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," it is revealed they are having a baby girl.

Eventually the problem of Syria will have to be solved. Fifteen months and 12,000 bodies after the Syrian people decided they could no longer stomach the brutality of the Assad family, one of the most beautiful and historic parts of the Middle East is beginning to look a lot like Bosnia. Remember Sarajevo? We don't have to search our memories; just wait for the cellphone videos smuggled out of Haffa or Homs. It'll be neater; loyal elements of the Syrian Army will have had time to bury at least some of the bodies, and the regime's thuggish irregulars will have disappeared, but ...
Blood will tell. It always does.
Syria's nasty internal war, seen at the beginning as just another manifestation of the turmoil hopefully styled the "Arab Spring," has multiple roots and broad implications for the region. It has the potential to profoundly affect our national interests, for good or ill. And it is not a story where the lines between good actors and bad are always clear-cut. There are victims and villains, yes; but even the victims are not above a bit of villainy if the stars align properly. So we must be mindful that, much as with an earlier effort in Afghanistan, any aid we render has the potential to come back to bite us.
But caution doesn't excuse further dithering. The U.N. "peace plan," never given much hope, has now pretty clearly and comprehensively collapsed, reminding us all once again that negotiations don't work when the parties are wolves and sheep - unless the sheep are heavily armed, which in this case, they are not. Instead, Syrian Army loyalists and Assad's assassination squads have the upper hand, and pretty clearly intend to maintain it by any means necessary, with the help of their unholy trinity of friends: Russia, China and Iran.
The first may only be in it for the money - for decades, Syria was one of Russia's best customers for arms sales - although Moscow may regard support for Syria as a way to keep its hand in a turbulent region. China probably sees an opportunity to grow its influence too, using its UN Security Council veto to good effect; they advance themselves at our expense if they can. Then there's Iran, whose relationship with Syria is close and central to its ambitions as a regional power.
The Assads are Alawites, an offshoot of Shi'a Islam whose adherents control Syria's government and military. Most Sunnis don't even regard them as Muslims, but for the theocrats in Tehran there's enough of a weird-uncle link to regard them as brethren of convenience, making support for Syria's ruling clique something of an article of faith - especially as the opposition is, and always has been, overwhelmingly Sunni. Thus, the conflict has about it the whiff of religious war - a vicious, uncontrollable business once it gets rolling. Remember this is the Middle East, where distinctions we might see as mere inside-baseball quirks are matters of blood and death.
Then there's the matter of emulation. Both in the past and at present, the Syrian regime has used violent suppression, both open and covert, against its opponents. Protestors are routinely shot; opposition leaders are "disappeared" if they can be found; whole neighborhoods are leveled by artillery fire if they become too lively. Never doubt that Tehran, which has recently employed similar tactics against its citizens, is watching the Syrian carnage intently, and nervously. Leaders there understand, even if we do not, that success of Syria's opposition sends a powerful message to kindred spirits elsewhere, including Iran. Assad's fall may expose their weaknesses, something they dread and we should encourage.
Direct intervention in Syria would be unwise, and very likely counter-productive. Providing humanitarian aid would be worthwhile, possibly through the good offices of the Red Crescent. So would monitoring the delivery of any such aid. We should publicize and excoriate any further atrocities by the Syrian government, and demand that both Russia and China help rein in Damascus' butchers. We should support Arab League and Gulf Cooperation Council efforts to mediate the dispute.
As to providing weapons to the opposition to allow it to defend itself, this would require our government to keep its eyes and ears open and its mouth shut - something that seems impossible lately. We should leave this to those better able to do so.
But time is of the essence: if we procrastinate, others may act instead. Syria's neighbor Turkey may decide instability on its southern border is not a good thing and take steps of its own, which may lead to even more instability and danger, possibly including a regional war. This is a situation calling for more than hand-wringing and haranguing about helicopters.
Much more, and soon.

CFL Staff On Growing Up Latino
Her M.O.: She always asks you to grab her coffee (and doesn't pay you back), and loves to monopolize your time.
How to Deal: Next time she asks you to get something for her (coffee, lunch, whatever), just "forget" to do it or tell her you unfortunately don't have the time. If she keeps swinging by your desk for hour-long "chats," start telling her you really have to get back to an assignment and add, "if we could finish this later, that would be great." Eventually, she'll get the point.
Her M.O.: She's obsessed with being the center of attentionand freaks when she isn't.
How to Deal: Sure, it's annoyingespecially when she can't even deal when your guy's parents ask you about how work is goingbut it's in your best interests to be nice to her. So throw her a bone. The easiest way: Like her attention-seeking Facebook posts. That way, you can roll your eyes while you do it, and she'll never know.

Let Little Fish guide you when you make these cute cake pops for your next party. No baking required!
Weekdays on NICK
Place the pound cake on a clean work surface. Cut the cake into 6 slices, about a generous one inch thickness. Cut out two 1 1/2-inch circles with a round cookie cutter or use the rim of a small glass and a paring knife from each cake slice.
Line a cookie sheet with wax paper and place a wire rack on top. Insert a plastic fork into the side of each pound cake circle and place on the wire rack. Place the rack in the refrigerator until well chilled, about 30 minutes.
Cut 9 of the yellow spice drops into quarters lengthwise to make the bottom and top fins. Cut the remaining 6 spice drops in half lengthwise to make the tail fins. Cut the pretzel sticks in half. Press the cut side of the spice drop tail fin onto the end of each pretzel half and repeat with the remaining tail fins and pretzel sticks. Set aside.
Tint the vanilla frosting yellow with the food coloring. Heat the yellow frosting in a glass measuring cup, stirring every 10 seconds, until the texture of slightly whipped cream, about 40 seconds.
Dip a chilled pound cake circle into the melted frosting to coat. Allow the excess to drip back into the cup. Transfer back to the cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining cake circles. Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator until set, about 30 minutes.
Press the pretzel end of the tail fin spice drops on one side of the cake circle. Attach the quartered spice drops as the lower fins and the top fin. Pipe the eyes, mouth and eyebrows with the chocolate frosting. Repeat with the remaining cake pieces.
Arrange the cake pops in a glass or bucket filled with graham cracker crumbs on the bottom to help them stand up.

Peter Berg was recently in Israel to promote his upcoming/recently released big-screen adaption of the Milton Bradley board game Battleship. As it turns out, the half-Jewish auteur has some pretty strong opinions about the whole Israel and Iran being on the precipice of starting World War III thing.
During an interview with Israel's Channel 10, Berg sets aside any questions not related to Iran and its nuclear weapons capability, which he says is "the most serious issue facing our planet today — more so than the movie Battleship," before excoriating dazed interviewer Jason Danino-Holt for not serving in the IDF.
For what it's worth, Danino-Holt told YNet in 2005 that he was exempted from mandatory service due to health problems. Somehow I get the feeling that telling Berg would only have elicited a snide remark about rubbing some Gold Bond on it and manning up.

Historically, life sciences businesses paid more attention to maximizing production than to reducing costs. But with intense competition and relentless pressure on prices, they are seeking ways to become more agile and efficient. Concentrating one's efforts on cutting costs makes sound business sense, and that is where outsourcing becomes a viable strategy.
FM outsourcing lowers costs for a variety of reasons:
CORPORATE-LEVEL FM BENEFITS When you set up an outsourcing relationship, indirect benefits begin to accrue. These show up as overhead reductions and increased productivity, and make the company more efficient.
Increasing Focus on the Core Business Current pricing and competitive pressures are forcing life sciences businesses to consider what functions they should own and control. Core functions typically mean those that drive revenue: research and development, production, and marketing. Focus your capital and talent on those functions — others become candidates for outsourcing.
Companies that outsource FM typically find they get better service at lower cost by turning that function over to a qualified outside supplier. Converting the savings from outsourcing to funding R&D strengthens the product pipeline, pleases investors, and ultimately influences share price.
Sharing and Reducing Risk Outsourcing shifts liabilities such as retirement plan funding and healthcare coverage to the service provider. It also mitigates risk in other ways. For example, regulatory compliance depends on accurate calibration of production and laboratory instruments. Some life sciences companies outsource this task to service providers whose personnel have proven competent.
Traditional facility maintenance also can limit business risk because utilities and heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems managed by an expert service provider directly support critical research and production environments. For instance:

This is an excerpt from EERE Network News, a weekly electronic newsletter.
March 30, 2011
Resolving to Make Earth Day Last All Year
What was your New Year's resolution this year? Maybe you resolved to get back into the gym and finally lose those last pesky pounds. Maybe, like me, you resolved to finally break down and buy that new furnace. Or maybe you resolved do whatever you could to save energy and money this year.
When we talk about saving energy throughout the year, it's easy to forget that we're not just energy users when we're at home. Many of us spend a large part of our days at work, and the energy we use there is significant. According to Energy Star, the energy needed to support just one office worker for a day produces twice as much greenhouse gas emissions as that person's drive to work. Handily, there are a lot of resources available to help you tackle that energy usage at work, and Earth Day (coming up on April 22nd) can be the perfect time to launch a campaign to make the change. See the Energy Blog post.
