"While considering the options to get ahead in my studies, I came across the large selection of online courses available through Queen's Continuing and Distance Studies. An online course offered me the flexibility to continue working over the summer while pursuing subject matter that was interesting to me. Having taken two online courses to date, I can attest to the level of interactivity that professors maintain with their students.

11 Opinions
I take back my negative comments on DragThing. I don't know what I was thinking. It's a good software that I still use and recommend. I did try operating without it and while it's do-able it is much more convenient and pleasant when DragThing is implemented.
Used to be a big fan of this app. But I've recently removed it because:
1) It is redundant. Spotlight/LaunchBar/Dock covers everything.
2) Some issues with CPU usage. Discovered it was constantly using 2~3% while doing absolutely nothing.
3) It takes way too much fiddling to maintain all aliases and get that perfect dock. After years of using it, less than half of my frequently used apps were in DragThing so I kept reaching LaunchBar/Spotlight and that ended up working really well.
It's the first Macintosh shareware I've bought when I switched to the Mac years ago. It was version 2 back then. It's version 5.9.5. now and still very useful... Essential, I might say. I use this in conjunction with LaunchBar. They complement each other. OS X hasn't taken advantage of fastest access locations enough (=screen corners & screen edges). DragThing addresses that deficiency by letting me maximize Mac graphical user interface. Strongly recommended.
App version number is 5.9.3 NOT 5.93, please correct !
I use it as my mouse launcher, and Launchbar as keyboard launcher. Love it.
DragThing is what the Dock should have been. And I'm in the "bi-apptual" category-- I use DragThing and QuickSilver both; they're complementary, not exclusionary. They're both more than just Launchers, and I use different feature sets in each.
Big fan of this application. I remember being blown away by v2 on a mate's Mac years ago and when I got my first Mac, it was the first piece of software I bought for it. I'm not sure if comparisons to Quicksilver are really useful because QS is really something totally different but seeing as how comparisons are popular, I'd say the main reason I ditched QS is because I find its background processes get in the way too much and since dropping QS my login times are dramatically reduced.
I still use dragthing in addition to QS. Believe it or not, there are some things that it actually seems to work better for. It's especially preferable if are more of a mouse-oriented user than a keyboard type.
However, the developer has been AWOL due to illness for the past 6 months, and the development of this app has been stalled. QS, on the otherhand, has been improving at an incredible speed.
I'm another who still loves DragThing better than QuickSilver.
They are both great apps, and can be used in a complementary fashion. QuickSilver has a ways to go before I consider it "stable".
With Dragthing, I'm never more than 2 clicks away from any of my apps, folders, or files.
I have not been using QuickSilver as long. It can also be fast, but still requires typing and visual scanning of lists... until you've fully trained it, I suppose. QS has a very nice "Triggers" mechanism for assigning keyboard shorcuts to specific actions.
DragThing gives you a lot of control over where you place your items in its dock, as well as aesthetic control over its appearance. Great for people like me who prefer a spatial orientation for finding things.
I still like DragThing better than Quicksilver. Heresy, I know, but there it is.

Guest Book
During our recent buying trip to China, we had the pleasure of meeting a talented Chinese Avant-garde artist well known in the underground Chinese modern art world. He likes to be remain anonymous, while prefers to signs his art work with the name of "Yian Bin". Unwilling to admit his in depth knowledge in the infamous Cultural Revolution for fear of his personal safety, he demonstrates his vast knowledge and understanding of what is now known as the 10 years of chaos by specializing in Cultural Revolution paintings using abstract form while displaying clear messages. His work has been selected to be displayed in variety of different art shows and had been a long favorite among European and American collectors. We ran into him by chance and formed a bond as he too grew up in Hunan, like one of our art buyers in China, and shared the same art teacher in the art school where he trained as our Chinese art buyer. His unwillingness to admit his knowledge of the subject matter of his paintings is well understood by us, as the government, although it has officially denounced the Cultural Revolution and admitted that it has caused irrevocable damage to society, has also discouraged people from remembering the years of chaos. As young generations seek answers from the past, they are often faced with government censorship, and have found it difficult to locate honest and vivid material about the period. Yian Bin, not willing to disclose where his inspiration resides, paints his art work with uncanny precision and comprehension of the era. Each of his paintings we collected referred to a different scene that took place during Cultural Revolution, many revolving around the daily lives of the Red Guards and those who aspired to be Red Guards. His work, admired by many older Chinese who went through and participated in the Cultural Revolution under the guidance of Mao Ze Dong, often strikes a chord that may have an effect much deeper than the Chinese government may want to acknowledge or realize. We refer this painting as "Going to the Session". Size: 13" by 13".

New Orleans, LA - Valdosta State surrendered five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to lose game one 5-4 before rolling to a 14-2 victory in game two as the Blazers split a Gulf South Conference doubleheader with New Orleans at Mastrie Field Saturday.
Marc Overstreet gave VSU an early lead in the day's first game as he connected on his second career home run in the top of the third inning. Buster Jackson singled to open the Blazer half of the third before Overstreet hit a ball over the wall in left field to post Valdosta State to a 2-0 lead.
Jackson used his speed to help the Blazers push their lead to 3-0 in the fifth inning as the VSU centerfielder drew a walk with one out in the fifth and stole second before scoring on Christian Glisson's double to right.
Valdosta State added another run in the sixth on a Steven Groves single that plated Bryant Hayman before New Orleans scored all five of its runs in the eighth.
Zach Pohto doubled off VSU starter Kevin Rogers to open the eighth before Rogers was replaced by Benjamin Weil. Weil hit the first batter he faced before recording a strike out for the first out of the inning, but proceeded to surrender three run-scoring singles and a walk to load the bases. The Blazers looked to get the second out of the inning on a ground out by Brandon Simon, but the base runner beat the throw home for the fourth out of the frame before a ground out scored the game's final run.
The Blazers threatened in the ninth as Overstreet singled with one out and moved to second on a fielding error before a ground out by Glisson moved him to third where he was stranded.
Jackson led Valdosta State offensively in game one as he went 3-for-4 with two runs scored. Overstree also had three hits while Glisson tallied two as VSU out-hit the Privateers 11-8 in the contest. Rogers pitched into the eighth inning and allowed just five hits and one run while striking out two. Weil gave up three hits and four runs in one inning to fall to 4-3.
After giving up a single run in the first inning of game two, Valdosta State scored 14 out of the next 15 runs to grab the lead. The Blazers got on top in the second inning as it took advantage of an error to score two runs before Austin Lawrence added a run-scoring single to put VSU up 3-1.
New Orleans got a run back in the bottom of the second with a solo home run, only to have VSU score four runs in the fourth and three more in the fifth. Lawrence added the big blow in the fourth as he hit a two-run double while Chaz Bagwell also singled home a run. In the fifth, Alex Smith drove in a run with a base hit while Overstreet scored another with a ground out before an error allowed the Blazers to push their lead to 10-2.
VSU again scored four runs in the sixth inning as Bryant Hayman singled home a run while Lawrence added another two-run double before a passed ball pushed the Valdosta State advantage to 12 runs.
Lawrence finished the game 4-for-4 at the plate with five RBI while Smith was 3-for-4 with four runs scored. Bagwell, Camerson Graves and Steven Groves all had two hits in the game.
Jarod Carlton pitched his second straight complete game and allowed four hits and two earned runs while striking out eight to improve to 3-0.
The two teams conclude the three-game series with a single game beginning at 2:00 p.m. Eastern on Sunday.

Downsizing Blog
Senator Coburn's Final Report
One the best U.S. senators of recent decades is leaving. No one has spotlighted the ongoing waste in federal spending more than Tom Coburn of Oklahoma. In his farewell address, he advised his colleagues: "Your whole goal is to protect the United States of America, its Constitution and its liberties … it's not to provide benefits for your state." As if to underline Coburn's point, the Washington Post yesterday described how Senator Roger Wicker helped pour $349 million down the drain on an unused NASA facility in his home state of Mississippi.
The Federal Spending Juggernaut
Over the weekend, the Senate approved the $1.1 trillion Cromnibus spending package, which funds parts of the government through September 2015.
Government Job Security
Federal employees are generally overpaid. Federal, civilian employees made $81,076 in 2013 in wages, on average, compared to $55,424 in the private sector. Their benefit packages are particularly out of line with the private sector. Total compensation including wages and benefits for federal, civilian employees was $115,524 in 2013, on average, compared to $66,357 in the private sector.
Details of the Cromnibus
Last night, House and Senate negotiators released the legislative text for the government's newest spending bill, dubbed the "Cromnibus." The bill authorizes the government to spend $1.1 trillion on discretionary programs between now and September 30, 2015. The total spending level honors last year's Ryan-Murray budget deal, but also makes a number of important changes to federal law.
Government Waste Continues
Earlier this week, I noted that some Inspectors General provide insufficient oversight of federal government activities. They should be more aggressive in uncovering waste and abuse in federal agencies.
Mississippi Copies Misguided Energy Subsidies
The federal government has a long history of "green energy" failures. Many states have also foolishly subsidized green energy, including Mississippi.
Reviving Federalism Is a Winning Issue
In his new book, Saving Congress from Itself, James Buckley argues that Congress should abolish the entire federal aid-to-state system to save money and improve American governance. A recent Cato study shows that there is substantial public support for reforms in that direction.
Who Will Watch the Watchdogs?
Inspectors General (IGs) serve an important purpose within the federal bureaucracy. They are supposed to be independent, internal watchdogs that guard against fraud, corruption, waste, and other failures. But based on the recent actions of some Inspectors General, their independence is being questioned.
Improve Government: Repeal Aid to States
James L. Buckley's new book, Saving Congress from Itself, examines federal aid-to-state programs. The federal government spends more than $600 billion a year on 1,100 such programs for education, welfare, and many other state and local activities.
Fraud in the Defense Department
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cost more than $1 trillion with billions going to Department of Defense (DoD) contractors. All of that spending has led to a large uptick in waste and fraud. As much as $60 billion has been wasted on U.S. operations in those two countries, according to analysis from the Commission on Wartime Contracting in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Justice Department has brought more than 235 criminal cases since 2005.

Gov. Mark Dayton says there is no government money right now to build high-speed rail lines in Minnesota.
Speaking at the Minnesota Newspaper Association annual conference Thursday, Dayton cast doubt on taxpayer dollars being available anytime soon for high-speed rail.
Dayton noted that the proposed Northern Lights Express linking Duluth and the Twin Cities was not in his construction proposal last year. He also spoke of a proposed high-speed rail line linking Rochester and the Twin Cities that could bring patients quickly to Mayo Clinic.
But while calling the high-speed rail proposals "good ideas," the Democratic governor says the state and the federal government don't have the money right now.
It's unclear which projects Dayton will back until he releases his scaled-down construction bill in March.

Happily ever after goes by in a flash in "Marry Me a Little."
This 1980 song cycle recycles tunes from early in Stephen Sondheim's career as well as numbers that got cut from now iconic musicals such as "Follies," "A Little Night Music" and "Company." Since TheatreWorks artistic director Robert Kelley has long been in love with the Sondheim songbook, it's easy to see why he was drawn to this valentine to the master. Over the years, TheatreWorks has staged 19 Sondheim productions from "Into the Woods" and "Pacific Overtures" to "Passion."
For the record, this 75-minute piece isn't quite up to those lofty standards. Charming but slight, it's really more of a revue than a musical, and there are times when you long to hear the songs set in a deeper context. But there's no denying the wit and sparkle that have made Sondheim such a towering figure. The seldom-staged musical anthology runs through June 29 at the Mountain View Center for the Arts, and it closes the season on a pleasant note.
Romance is the throughline in Sondheim's works, and no one charts the path from ecstasy to regret with as much nuance. Here the songs of love and loss are framed by two comely but lonely twentysomethings a floor apart in a San Francisco Victorian chopped up into apartments. They are mere feet from each other every day, but unaware each other exists. Their various and sundry torch songs, presented as romantic illusions and fantasies even when the two are together, are spliced together with mathematical precision.
Kelley has transported the action to the Internet age, which heightens the sense of alienation and longing but also comes off as a tad precious. However, it's hard to resist Bruce McLeod's storybook set with its San Francisco skyline and shooting stars.
He (A.J. Shively) is a scruffy, bike-riding dude who works at a tech start up by day and binges on "Game of Thrones" by night. She (Sharon Rietkerk) has a thing for power yoga and a bit of an Amazon addiction. They both communicate with the world largely by texting, and they both love to unwind with the Nintendo Wii.
Neither character has a name and both are more universal archetypes than flesh-and-blood individuals, which undercuts the power of the songs. Sondheim's genius springs from the specificity he brings to each lyric, each note. Conceived by playwright Craig Lucas and director Norman Rene, this loosely constructed narrative is entirely sung-through with no dialogue to stitch together changes of scope or tone.
Not all of the songs are a perfect fit for this wistful duet, and the concept of this offbeat pas-de-deux sometimes feels strained, but none of that will matter to Sondheim devotees because the songs are always the main attraction.
Certainly you can't fault the actors, both of whom sing their hearts out. Rietkerk, who played Meg in "Little Women" last year, radiates sauciness in "Can That Boy Foxtrot," and she captures the sizzle of the blues with the title song from "The Girls of Summer." Shively mines the cheekiness from "Bang!" and "Your Eyes Are Blue."
Kelley, as ever, burnishes the musical interludes to an elegant shimmer that reminds you how much more depth there is in Sondheim than in most of his successors. That's the real love story here, the undying devotion between a theater company and one of its favorite composers.

MOUNTAIN VIEW -- The one-day window to buy your own Google Glass opened Tuesday morning at 6 a.m., but Google has not said how many are up for sale -- or how long the sale will last.
Until Tuesday, an estimated 10,000 units have only been in the hands of people hand-selected by Google, dubbed Explorers. While many are curious about the capabilities of Google Glass, some of the early adopters have reported angry confrontations over the wearable technology's ability to surreptitiously record and shoot images and instantly upload them to the Internet.
Google has said it hopes to bring Google Glass to the mass consumer market sometime later this year. So it's unclear what Google's trying to accomplish by offering an unspecified number of units for a limited time -- for a cool $1,500 each.
The company did not respond to requests for comment Monday but posted on Google+ that "Our (Google Glass) Explorers are moms, artists, surgeons, rockers, and each new Explorer has brought a new perspective that is making Glass better. But every day we get requests from those of you who haven't found a way into the program yet, and we want your feedback, too. So in typical Explorer Program fashion, we're trying something new."
To apply for the chance to buy Google Glass, go to www.google.com/glass/start/how-to-get-one

A newborn tamandua, a species of anteater, is doing well at the Denver Zoo after staff initiated around-the-clock care.
Earlier this month, a southern tamandua named Rio gave birth for the first time, and the new mother failed to nurture her newborn, zoo officials said in a media release.
"Staff stepped in to give supplementary feedings day and night while monitoring the baby's condition," the zoo said.
The newborn, believed to be a female and named Cayenne, was not getting enough milk in the first 24 hours. Zoo staff "began bottle feedings around the clock," and Cayenne was "housed in an incubator."
After the initial measures, Rio had "time to bond with and nurse her baby ... and is slowly learning her role as a mother" at the zoo's Gates Animal Housing Center.
This is the first birth not only for Rio, but also her mate, Quito.
Rio was born in November 2004 at the Sedgwick County Zoo in Wichita and came to Denver in April 2005.
Quito was born in August 2012 at the Reid Park Zoo in Tucson, arriving in Denver in April 2013.
The pair are not on general exhibit, but are popular in the zoo's education collection, which provides up-close animal encounters in programs such as outreach visits, zoo classes and VIP tours.
Southern tamanduas, native to South America, are often called lesser anteaters. Although their range is widespread, their numbers in the wild are low.
Tamanduas are dwindling because of hunting, traffic accidents and loss of habitat.

The Supreme Court blocked Arizona from enforcing a ban on most abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, Fox News reported Jan. 13. The court's decision is a big blow for states that have tried to enact strict abortion laws. The High Court declined to hear an appeal from Arizona, leaving in place a prior ruling from the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that determined the law was unconstitutional. The Supreme Court decision effectively strikes down the law.
More News to Cheer This Week:
The U.S. House approved a $1 trillion "omnibus" spending bill to fund the federal government until October, USA Today reported Jan. 15. The bill provides increased funding for public health and will increase the National Institutes of Health budget by $1 billion. It also invests $194 million more in the Women, Infants and Children program, providing nearly 90,000 more mothers and children with nutrition assistance. The Senate is expected to approve the bill Jan. 17 and send it to President Barack Obama for his signature before the stopgap funding expires Jan. 18.
The biggest American comedians are putting on a show in support of Texas women who are facing down the state's new abortion restrictions, with a fundraising event titled "A Night of a Thousand Vaginas!" in Los Angeles on Jan. 19, Russia Today reported. The event will raise funds for women's groups in Texas that are helping to guide individuals through the state's latest abortion law.
Egyptians voted in a referendum on the country's draft constitution that would also enshrine unprecedented gender equality for women, NBC News reported Jan. 14. Since the beginning of the uprisings, the country has debated rampant sexual harassment and whether an Islamist government protects or endangers women.
Husbands and children of Jordanian women married to non-Jordanians will be granted full civil rights, Ammon News reported Jan. 13.The decision will end decades of suffering for the families of more than 84,000 Jordanian women who are married to foreigners. Under the current Citizenship Law, Jordanian women cannot pass on their nationality to their children and spouses, a right that only Jordanian men enjoy, a common provision throughout the region.
Could the federal appeals court's decision this week to strike down the Federal Communications Commission's net neutrality rules impact the representation of women on the Internet? The answer could be "yes." These rules have prohibited Internet providers from blocking or prioritizing Web traffic. Net neutrality has so far prevented "Internet service providers like Comcast, AT and T or Verizon from blocking, discriminating against or prioritizing online content that flows over the Internet and to your computer or smartphone," wrote Megan Tady in a commentary published in 2011 by Women's eNews. "Without strong net neutrality protections, Web content created by and for women could be blocked or controlled by Internet service providers who want to push their own online services--and more importantly, their own representations of gender, sexuality and culture," explained Tady.
More News to Jeer This Week:
Ken Buck, a Republican candidate for Senate in Colorado, attacked women's right to choose by comparing a woman's pregnancy to his own cancer on talk radio, ThinkProgress reported Jan. 15. "While I understand a woman wants to be in control of her body -- it's certainly the feeling that I had when I was a cancer patient, I wanted to be in control of the decisions that were made concerning my body -- there is another fundamental issue at stake. And that's the life of the unborn child," Buck said on air.
U.S. Supreme Court justices expressed doubt about a Massachusetts law that mandates a protective buffer zone around abortion clinics to allow patients unimpeded access, indicating they may strike it down as unconstitutional as demanded by anti-abortion protesters, Reuters reported Jan. 15. A ruling is expected by the end of June.
A 51-year-old Danish tourist was gang raped near a popular shopping area in New Delhi after she got lost and approached a group of men for directions back to her hotel, Fox News reported Jan. 15. Against this backdrop, a recent video by a 28-year-old Mumbai-based filmmaker, Pooja Batura Pathak, aptly titled Bol or "speak up," urges Indian women to break their silence and stop the cycle of sexual violence against them, Time magazine reported.

"The Shriver Report," released Jan. 12, shows that a staggering number of women across the country are still teetering on the verge of poverty and economic disaster. The report takes a wide-angle snapshot of a national economic crisis, seen through the eyes of women.

President Obama and Maria Shriver discussed the issue on Jan. 14, CNN reported.
Although 2013 was a good year for female actresses starring in Hollywood blockbusters, women working behind the scenes didn't fare well.

It's also down 2 percent from 2012, The Los Angeles Times reported Jan. 14.

Pope Francis criticized abortion as evidence of a "throwaway culture" that wastes people as well as food, saying such a mentality is a threat to world peace, the Associated Press reported Jan. 13.

Nine women in Sweden have successfully received transplanted wombs donated from relatives and will soon try to become pregnant, the Associated Press reported Jan. 13.

This first major experiment is to test whether it's possible to transplant wombs into women so they can give birth to their own children.
Saudi Arabia has suspended an electronic system to notify male guardians about the departure or arrival of their female relatives, Russia Today reported Jan. 16. The monitoring system has to be reviewed said an official, though Saudi women hope the whole system will be canceled.
The husband of a brain-dead, pregnant Texas woman is suing the hospital keeping her on life support, saying doctors are doing so against her and her family's wishes, the Associated Press reported Jan. 14. A state law prohibits life-saving treatment from being denied to pregnant patients.
All pregnant women should be screened for gestational diabetes, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force advised Jan. 13, NBC News reported.

It's a glorious book -- filled with recipes, tips, detailed photographs and stories about Charles Phan's childhood in Vietnam, his family and his famous San Francisco restaurant, The Slanted Door. But let's ease your anxiety right off the bat:
You'll find the recipe for Phan's iconic Bo Luc Lac -- Shaking Beef -- on page 140 of his first-ever cookbook, "Vietnamese Home Cooking" (Ten Speed Press, $35, 226 pages). And you'll find considerably more, too, including the back story on the dish that has graced that menu since Slanted Door opened in 1995 and the lowdown on the cooking techniques that make those dishes so special.
Naturally, we had questions.
Q So what's the back story with this cookbook?
A It's how to cook Vietnamese food at home -- the whole notion of understanding the Vietnamese aesthetic, how one would enjoy the food, the stories. It's essentially the same thing we're doing at Slanted Door, Vietnamese food with local ingredients.
Q You came to the United States very young. When did you start cooking?
A I left Vietnam when I was 13. My mother was working two jobs, and I was putting family meals together. I started working in a restaurant when I was in high school. I'd work three nights a week until 2 a.m. By the time I went to Cal, I was working three nights a week in San Francisco, and cooking six-course dinners for five guys in my dorm room. People thought I was nuts.
Q You were studying architecture at UC Berkeley. How on earth did you get from there to Slanted Door?
A My third year, I was involved with protests over tuition. It was my little Occupy thing, the biggest protest since Mario Savio. But back then, you don't pass your class, you drop out. So I went to New York and worked for a firm to try out architecture -- and I got called back to work for my mom. My parents were pretty much always self-reliant, always starting businesses they hadn't done before. I got stuck in the garment industry, and I was not successful. So, I traveled a bit. Got a job selling software for two years at a company that went belly up. But always in the back of my head: a restaurant.
Q What was the tipping point?
A It was 1994, I was going to goof around, move to Asia and at the last minute ... In my heart I knew I wanted to work for myself. I decided, OK, I'm going to do this. I saw this idea in my head, this "Why can't we be like Zuni? Have that kind of setting with Vietnamese food?"
Q You've opened several restaurants recently -- including Heaven's Dog and the Wo Hing General Store in the original Slanted Door site. Any thoughts of opening a place in the East or South bays?
A (Laughs) It's just a matter of time.
Q Let's talk about the new book. Instead of organizing it by, say, entrees and desserts, you've grouped the recipes by technique. Why?
A People don't think of technique. People want a recipe because they're buying a book, but if you don't understand the principles, you can't mix and match -- you can't cope with no broccoli for your beef. People have a wok, they toss it like it's a salad and think it's going to cook. It doesn't have to be that way. If you learn how to stir-fry, to braise, to grill, how to control the fire, you can do anything.

Oh My Teen Book Group
Tuesday, May 14, 2013
5:00pm @ Trails West Branch
Oh My Teen discusses Crewel by Gennifer Albin. Oh My Teen book group is a program for teens that meets the second Tuesday of every month at the Trails West branch library. Copies are available for checkout at the branch library.
From the publisher:
Enter a tangled world of secrets and intrigue where a girl controls other's destinies, but not her own.
Sixteen-year-old Adelice Lewys has always been special. When her parents discover her gift--the ability to weave the very fabric of reality--they train her to hide it. They don't want her to become one of the deadly women who determine what people eat, where they live, how many children they have, and even when they die.
But Adelice is forced into this powerful group, and she must learn to navigate the dangerous politics at play. Caught in a web of lies and forbidden romance, she must unravel the sinister truth behind her own unspeakable power. Her world is hanging by a thread, and Adelice, alone, can decide to save it--or destroy it.

STOCKTON - Police used pepper spray and batons to subdue a combative man who assaulted customers at a central Stockton store and pushed an officer against a wall, authorities said.
The manager of a store in the 700 block of North El Dorado Street told police 34-year-old Kevin Reaties punched several customers and flipped over a table about 5:15 p.m. Friday. When officers arrived, Reaties provided a false name and refused to cooperate, police said. When the officers tried to detain him, Reaties pulled away and pushed one of the officers against a wall, authorities said.
Pepper spray proved ineffective, so the officers used batons to subdue the man, police said. Reaties was arrested on suspicion of vandalism, resisting arrest and battery on a peace officer, police said.

SCOOBA – The 15th-ranked Lions of East Mississippi Community College put the finishing touches on their successful 8-2 football campaign by placing four players on the 2012 NJCAA Football All-America Team, as announced Wednesday by the NJCAA's national office headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Headlined by sophomore free safety Justin Cox receiving first-team defensive honors, defensive end Za'Darius Smith earned second-team laurels while strong safety Shaquille Fluker was an honorable mention selection. Offensively, second-year freshman quarterback Quez Johnson also garnered honorable mention recognition.
Cox, a former standout at West Point High School, tied for eighth among the NJCAA statistical leaders with a team-high six interceptions and was credited with a club-most 10 pass breakups this past season for the EMCC Lions. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound defensive back also tied for second among the team leaders with 52 total tackles on the year. The Mississippi State University commit completed his two-year EMCC career with 11 pass interceptions, 119 total tackles and 19 pass breakups. Cox was previously tabbed the 2012 MACJC North Division Defensive Back Most Valuable Player and an NJCAA All-Region 23 honoree.
Smith, out of Greenville High School in Alabama, ranked as the Lions' leading tackler among defensive linemen this past season with 47 total stops, including 30 solo tackles and a team-best 6.5 sacks. The 6-foot-6, 255-pound defensive end was also credited with four forced fumbles, two pass breakups and an interception on the year. Ranked by JCGridiron.com as the nation's top-rated junior college strong-side defensive end, Smith finished his two-year stint in Scooba with 66 total tackles, including 45 solo stops, 11 sacks and seven other tackles behind the line of scrimmage.
Fluker, from Meridian High School, was also a vital member of East Mississippi's defensive unit that helped lead head coach Buddy Stephens' Lions to a two-year composite record of 20-2, including the school's first-ever NJCAA National Championship and second MACJC State Championship in a three-year span during the 2011 campaign. This past season, the University of Georgia commit tied for 14th nationally with five interceptions along with being credited with 34 total tackles and four pass breakups. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound defensive back totaled 106 tackles, seven interceptions and 12 pass breakups in his two years with the Lions.
Perhaps EMCC's most decorated player this past football season, Johnson's honorable mention status extends the Lions' streak of having All-America quarterbacks to five consecutive years. In addition, Johnson's 2012 selection gives EMCC the distinction of touting the NJCAA Region 23 Offensive Back MVP four times in the past five seasons. Previously, former Lion signal-callers and current Ole Miss starters Bo Wallace (2011) and Randall Mackey (2008 & 2009) collected regional offensive honors while starring for EMCC. This season also marked the fifth straight year that East Mississippi boasted the MACJC North Division Offensive Back MVP, which includes 2010 honoree and two-year Northwestern State (La.) University starting quarterback Brad Henderson.
Johnson, a former product of Starkville High School, ranked among the top five nationally with an average of 284.6 passing yards per game and 27 touchdown passes. A two-time NJCAA Offensive Player of the Week recipient, the 6-foot-1, 225-pound Johnson completed 59.3 percent (227-of-383) of his passes for 2,846 yards on the year. The Florida Atlantic University commit also ranked as the Lions' second-leading rusher this season with 540 yards on the ground and a team-most 12 rushing touchdowns.
Under Stephens' five-year guidance, the East Mississippi Lions have now claimed 13 NJCAA All-America football selections spanning back to the 2008 season. A year ago during EMCC's NJCAA National Championship season, Wallace capped his record-setting campaign for the Lions by being named the 2011 NJCAA Offensive Player of the Year. In addition, former Lion defensive stalwart and current Mississippi State defensive end Denico Autry was also chosen to the 2011 NJCAA Football All-America First Team.
Among this year's 75 NJCAA Football All-Americans, only 2012 NJCAA National Champion Iowa Western Community College and third-ranked Snow College featured more All-America selections this season than East Mississippi Community College.
The 75 student-athletes awarded NJCAA All-America football honors this season were nominated by their respective conferences and then selected by the NJCAA football committee.

At any rate, I still consider it one of the best 5 shows of the tour; it's definitely one of the few shows where both sets are great the whole way through. The second set reminds me of 12/11/99, in which none of the songs are "best evers", but all of them are very strong versions and the setlist flow is absurdly good (particularly the way the Wolfman's jam ever so patiently slides into Boogie On - you'd think they'd been doing that segue for *years*). The first set, on the other hand...if there was a segue that could top that Wolfman->Boogie On, it's the silky-smooth AC/DC -> Psycho Killer transition, one of the best show starters of a tour that specialized in nasty show starters. And the rest of the set keeps up with that remarkable start, peaking with the fierce funk workout of the Tube Jam.
@waxbanks referred to this show's "retro-dufus-turned-pornstar-goodtimes", a description that I just love. It's not the deepest show of Fall '97 (that's 11/22), or the one with the best set (that's 12/6, of course), but it's probably the most fun show of the tour - the Hampton Comes Alive, so to speak, only instead of goofball covers we have cow-funk sprayed all over our ear holes by a band at the peak of its powers. This show is one of the greats.

SACRAMENTO -- Gov. Jerry Brown on Tuesday held his first Capitol news conference of the new year -- the first since it was announced he had prostate cancer. He tackled the issue of federal control over California's prison system.
Here's a sampling of what Brown had to say about why he filed an appeal with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to eliminate federal oversight of California prisons:

The Xquartz project is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.org X Window System that runs on Mac OS X. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple has shipped with OS X since version 10.5.
Required OS: not specified
Tags: x11 , xserveer , xserver
16 Opinions
2 things here: 1) all the comments about the version number seem to be correct. With v2.5.0 installed, I am being prompted to upgrade to "2.5.5", which when downloaded seems to be 2.5.0. Something is wrong there. and 2) XQuartz != X11, and both "upgrades" pulled down the same exact XQuartz package, so, again, I think something is wrong.
fgrimoo - For one thing, this uses a far newer version of the core xorg server than the one that Apple provides does.
2.5 is the latest, correct the database
Where is the 2.5.5 version ?
This is a different X11 implementation, isn't it?
What's the use of this?
There aren't version number 2.5.5.
There are only version number 2.5.0.

World IP Day: Protecting Innovation to Protect the U.S. Economy
World IP Day: Protecting Innovation to Protect the U.S. Economy
04.25.13 | By
Today is the World Intellectual Property Organization's World Intellectual Property Day, and it couldn't be more relevant. As the world leader in innovation, the United States needs to continue to support intellectual property (IP) policies that promote innovation in the biopharmaceutical industry, in addition to other IP-intensive sectors, or it could adversely affect investments in research and development and stall the next medical breakthrough.
Patients aren't the only ones that could be affected. IP-intensive industries directly employ approximately 19 million Americans, with the biopharmaceutical sector alone directly employing more than 650,000. When you include indirect jobs, the number catapults to 55 million. If U.S. companies don't have an incentive to make the heavy investments needed to develop products, growth potential becomes limited, resulting in fewer jobs. These are the high-paying jobs our economy needs, too. Jobs in the intellectual property sector of the health care industry pay up to 30 percent more than other private sector industries.
The biopharmaceutical sector accounts for the single largest share of all U.S. business R&D, representing nearly 20 percent of all domestic R&D funded by U.S. businesses, according to data from the National Science Foundation. If we don't take steps to protect it, we not only lose jobs, but the U.S. also becomes less competitive globally.
To recognize World IP Day, take a second and think about where we would be without innovation. The biopharmaceutical sector works to provide patients with innovative treatments to live productive, healthy lives, and if we do note take the appropriate steps now to protect IP, progress could be slowed.

Alzheimer drug improves memory
14.03.2013 - Finnish Orion Pharma has presented Phase II results suggesting its first-in-class Alzheimer drug ORM-12741 improves memory.
A Phase IIa study on 100 patients with moderate Alzheimer's disease, which dosed the active arm with 60 milligrams or 200 milligrams of ORM-12741 plus standard cholinesterase treatment and memantine, suggested a slight improvement (+4%) in memory tests. In contrast patients receiving placebo twice daily instead of ORM-12741 over three months worsened by 33%.
Orion's candidate drug is the first to target the alpha-2C adrenergic receptor, which is expressed mainly in the CNS (striatum and hippocampus) and has a role as physiological fine tuner of synaptic neurotransmission.
"Currently, there are still only a handful of Alzheimer's drugs on the market and they have only moderate effects on the symptoms of the disease," said study author Dr. Juha Rouru of Orion Pharma. "Anytime you have a drug that targets a new pathway in the brain and shows effectiveness in clinical trials, it is exciting."
Orion has already finished pre-clinical development of another alpha-2c adrenergic receptor in Alzheimer, which was licenced from Polish Selvita, and is in talks with potential partners who want to advance ORM-12741.

I have enjoyed using PMS successfully for a few years now. This week, I have updated Java and also updated to the new version of PMS.
Unfortunately, PMS no longer finds my renderers unless I use Windows Firewall instead of Zonealarm (and with Windows Firewall it won't work as a service).
I have tried everything, including updating to the newly-released version of Zonealarm and adding trusted IP ranges/addresses to Zonealarm.
Then, last night it all started working. With Zonealarm running! And as a service!!!
I checked my Zonealarm settings a little while back (and saw that my trusted IP range - which I added yesterday - was set). I deleted this to see if it made a difference and PMS stopped working so I added it back again. Guess what? Now PMS refuses to play ball either as a service or running as a standalone piece of software (unbless ZA is deactivated). I've tried everything again to no avail (I don't know what got it working last night... is there an incompatibility between PMS and ZA?).
Anyway, any ideas as to how to get it running again with ZA?
Many thanks,

The Federal Emergency Management Agency says it is giving the city of Minot about $2.1 million for the first phase of a project to protect the city's water treatment plant with a floodwall.
FEMA says the $2.7 million first phase involves design and engineering work along with an environmental study. If all requirements are met FEMA will help fund construction.
Minot was hit by historic Souris River flooding in the summer of 2011. More than 4,000 homes, businesses and other structures were affected.

Did you feel that? Locals report tremors
Published: Monday, March 25, 2013 at 3:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 8:49 a.m.
Residents throughout Terrebonne and Lafourche say they heard a boom Monday morning and felt the ground shake.
But officials with the U.S. Geological Survey said their computers hadn't detected any seismic activity. A spokesman speculated that might be the case because the movement was too slight to be immediately apparent.
Andrea Dupree of Houma said she heard the noise about 10 a.m. and saw items on her desk shaking.
Ryan Soudelier said he felt it near Thibodaux High School.
"It was very gentle and faint," he said in an email to The Courier. "It was like being on the second floor with someone else running a washing machine nearby, but we were on the first floor."
Others, like Bridgette Marcel-Waling, said she felt it at her home in Gray, but she said the time was closer to noon.
"I thought it may have been a low-flying plane or something," she said in a note to the newspaper, "but it rattled my windows right around the time my kids woke up around 11:45 or so.
Dozens more confirmed the tremble via the newspaper's Facebook page in communities from ranging from Pointe-aux-Chenes to Thibodaux.
"I felt it in Chauvin," said Kathleen Scott, 57. "It was really noticeable with my trailer shaking and my windows rattling."

First off, thank you for writing such an awesome streaming program!! I've looked high and low and found nothing that comes close PS3MS, I love it!
The problem I have tho is that I can't pause the stream. Thing is, I'm not using PS3MS for a PS3, in fact I don't even own a PS3 but I do have a DLNA compliant Pioneer 5090H 50" Plasma.
I can pause streams originating from Windows Media Player and as far as I can remember TVersity too (not sure cause I didn't use it for long).
From what I can gather from other posts on this forum, pausing is not an issue on the PS3 so I can only assume that my TV doesn't communicate as well with PS3MS as a real PS3, but since I can pause streams from other servers maybe there's something I can do in PS3MS that will work for my TV too? Unfortunately I have no idea how DLNA works or even where to begin but I assume there's a specific pause request sent from any DLNA device and that the PS3 sends a slightly different one? Just thinking out loud ofc but if that was the case maybe PS3MS can listen to standard DLNA pause requests as well?
Thanks again for putting the time and effort into creating PS3MS and for putting up with annoying users!
