SAN JOSE -- The two young daughters of a one-time prostitute have a valid claim to the estate of slain millionaire Ravi Kumra, a judge ruled Tuesday, deciding there is "clear and convincing evidence" that the girls are Kumra's children and are entitled to a family allowance.
Whether they are entitled to half his estate -- which is now in the hands of his two grown daughters from his recently ended marriage -- has yet to be determined.
Keila Goggins, the mother of the 9- and 7-year-old girls, called the ruling "absolutely wonderful."
"It is what he would have wanted," said Goggins, 40, who lives out of state with her children. "It's a wonderful start to making sure that my girls can get their colleges taken care of and their needs, so they would have no limitation on where they wanted to go and what they wanted to be."
The ruling comes exactly five months after Kumra was killed in his Monte Sereno mansion Nov. 30 when suspected gang members with alleged ties to some of Kumra's prostitute girlfriends allegedly broke in and bound and gagged him, then ransacked the house and stole jewelry, cash and coins. Kumra, a tech investor who once owned Saratoga's The Mountain Winery concert venue and made millions in the wireless industry, died of asphyxiation. His ex-wife, who continued to live with him in the mansion since their 2010 divorce, was beaten and bound with packing tape. Three men and two alleged prostitutes are in custody awaiting trial. Goggins said Monday that she knew both of the women charged, Katrina Fritz and Raven Dixon, from her early days hanging out with Kumra at the mansion and was surprised when she heard they had been arrested.
The case has drawn national attention because of the shocking nature of the crime in an affluent Silicon Valley neighborhood, but also because the case revealed Kumra's hedonistic lifestyle in which he surrounded himself with prostitutes who spent time at the house while Kumra's wife, Harinder, still lived there. Lawsuits by former business partners have accused him of entering into a "sham divorce" in 2010 to shield his millions from creditors.
During the trial, the Kumra family contended, however, that if anything, the girls were the result of a "sperm donor" arrangement that would preclude them from making a claim on the estate. But Cain said in his ruling that the Kumras had presented no evidence that the girls were conceived through artificial insemination. In his ruling, he granted them $1,800 per child a month in family allowance. The Kumra family had no comment on the ruling, their public relations spokeswoman said Tuesday.
Goggins met Kumra through a friend with whom she worked at Carson City's Kit Kat Guest Ranch. In her trial testimony before Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cain last month, Goggins said she and Kumra decided to have children together and he paid her between $3,000 and $5,000 a month to live in a nice house and be a stay-at-home mother. That's the main reason she isn't working, she said, although she said she also had a serious heart condition. She has lived out of state for a number of years.
"Ravi wanted to make sure I was home when the girls came home, to help them with their homework, to make sure they had a well-balanced, home-cooked meal on the table at 5:30 or 6, in the shower by seven, in bed by eight," she said. "It's about being able to take care of them the way he wanted me to and the way he had already allowed me to. If you look at the history, he's been taking care of me since 2001, before I got pregnant."
In the ruling, Cain said that Kumra is not only the biological father of the children, but that "he openly held them out as his own children and acknowledged them as such." He often vacationed with the girls and their mother, including going to Disneyland. Kumra talked to the girls by phone and by email. The girls called him "Pappi."
Goggins said she loved Kumra, and she was no gold digger. "It wasn't about the money," she said. "I'm not going to lie, it's not that it didn't help, but that's not all I saw."
While Kumra's older daughters, ages 35 and 33 may not agree, Goggins said, "my girls deserve the best and that's all I want for them and that's what Ravi wanted for them."

Metro support for JAAS Keystore Login Module
By Suresh Mandalapu on Jun 22, 2010
KeyStoreLoginModule: This class provides a JAAS login module that prompts for a key store alias and populates the subject with the alias's principal and credentials. Stores an
X500Principal for the subject distinguished name of the first certificate in the alias's credentials in the subject's principals, the alias's certificate path in the subject's public credentials, and a
X500PrivateCredential whose certificate is the first certificate in the alias's certificate path and whose private key is the alias's private key in the subject's private credentials.
For more details , go through the link JAASKeyStoreLoginModule .The clear usage of this keystore login module is documented here
This feature is just an another way of configuring keystore's properties in the wsdl configuration.With this support in metro, we can configure the PKCS#11 keystore types also
To use this feature with metro, follow the below steps:
1) Configure a jaas keystore login module entry in the Glassfish's login.conf file($GF_Home/domains/domain1/config/login.conf) as shown belowJAASLoginModuleForKeyStore{
com.sun.security.auth.module.KeyStoreLoginModule required
If you are providing a callback handler for this login module , in the wsdl configuration,you don't need to configure the keyStoreAlias and
keyStorePasswordURL in the config entry.
If you are using a stand alone web service/client , we have to set a property like this :
-Djava.security.auth.login.config=mycustompath/login.conf where this login.conf file contains a login module entry as stated above
2) The existing way of configuring the keystore properties in wsdl looks like :
<sc:KeyStore wspp:visibility="private" location="/home/suresh/glassfish/domains/domain1/config/keystore.jks" type="JKS" storepass="changeit" alias="xws-security-server"/>
with this keystore login module feature , we can simply configure the keystore as :
<sc:KeyStore wspp:visibility="private" keystoreloginmoduleconfig="JAASLoginModuleForKeyStore" />
or in addition, if we want to provide a custom callback handler for login module which looks like :
<sc:KeyStore wspp:visibility="private" keystoreloginmoduleconfig="JAASLoginModuleForKeyStore" callbackHandler="suresh.test.KeyStoreCallbackHandler"/>
where the JAASLoginModuleForKeyStore is the glassfish login module config entry as shown above . Metro reads the keystoreloginmoduleconfig entry from the keystore and uses it to access the GF's config entry and thus populates the subject with certificate and privatekeys.Metro gets the certificate/privatekeys from this subject and uses them for signature/encryption.
The advantage of this feature is we can configure the PKCS#11 keystore types in addition to the default .JKS types
1) This login module feature works only for keystore's , but not for truststores .
2) If you are using a callback handler for login module , then the login module expects the TextOutputCallback, NameCallback( for specifying cert alias), PasswordCallback(for keystore password), and ConfirmationCallback(for login confirmation) in the callback handler
The sample callback handler is attached here
The sample netbeans webservice client(build/web/WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/NewWebServiceService.xml) which uses the above feature is attached here

Store, sync and share your files online.
Dropbox is an application that creates a special Finder folder that automatically syncs online and between your computers. It allows you to both backup files and keep them up-to-date between systems.
Required OS: not specified
Tags: backup , share , webservice , storage , file , sync , system
57 Opinions
WONDERFUL app, I use it for sharing constantly (Adium has file-transfer problems with the AIM protocol). Having a folder on your computer that anyone can read from using a URL is great. Dropping a file onto the sidebar in Finder and copying the link takes 5 seconds, compared to the 1-2 minutes of getting through all the webpages on a hosting service in order to upload even the smallest file. This is one of three programs that I'd ever consider paying for, 8/10 (-2 for not having any kind of preference pane and for having an ugly & unnecessary menu-bar icon)
Dropbox is pretty great, it's very seamless, feels tightly integrated with the OS.
Thought that this should be brought to everyone's attention from the DropBox TOS:
"Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement. Dropbox cooperates with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We will disclose any information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims and legal process (including but not limited to subpoenas), to protect the property and rights of Dropbox or a third party, to protect the safety of the public or any person, or to prevent or stop any activity we may consider to be, or to pose a risk of being, illegal, unethical, inappropriate or legally actionable."
Dropbox is one of the best -- and most useful -- applications I've seen in a while. As a student, Dropbox is a lifesaver. I keep all my assignments and projects on my personal computer, work on projects at work when there's down time, and can access everything from school. Previously this file-transfer-craziness was handled with a flash drive... that had a bad habit of getting left places.
Seriously, to anyone who needs to move files around frequently, Dropbox is a fantastic option!
this is a very cool app, very nicely done and works like a charm on windows, too. i just wish it would hog less memory; 50 megs right after launch is a bit too hungry for my taste. since i don't actually really need something like this right now, i've stopped tinkering around with it for reasons of performance.
Great idea - wonderful having a synced folder between machines. However, currently does not sync resource forks, which makes it a problem for loading apps and things like .textclipping documents.

Now that Steve Jobs' boyhood home in Los Altos is officially a historic property, I can add it to the Silicon Valley hot spots tour that I take my Midwestern relatives on when they come to town. I can almost see the summer day I drive my brother, fire captain Tim, over to see the valley's newest historic site.
Me: So, there it is -- Steve Jobs' boyhood home, just declared a historic resource by the Los Altos Historical Commission.
Tim: What? Where?
Me: That house right in front of you.
Tim: The one with the shake roof? Real tinderbox, my friend.
Me: Yeah, the shake roof.
Tim: That's just a dinky, one-story, regular, old ranch house. We must have passed 100 of them on the way here. I thought Steve Jobs lived in a 30-room historic Spanish colonial revival built for a copper baron in the 1920s. Bet it had a safe and sane copper roof.
Me: Good knowledge, but no. That's the Jackling house. Jobs tore that one down.
Tim: Why didn't they save that one and tear this one down?
Me: Are you nuts? This is the house where Jobs, Woz and some friends slapped together the Apple (AAPL) 1, a computer that changed the world. One sold in the spring for just this side of $700,000. They worked on it right there in that garage.
Tim: Wait. Another garage? What's with you people in Silicon Valley and garages? At least that other one you showed me had a plaque.
Me: That was the Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) garage, birthplace of Silicon Valley. For years it was rented out for $95 a month as a storage shed for Michal the Milkman, among others. HP finally bought it, along with the house in front of it, for close to a couple of million. Did a nice restoration, too.
Tim: But you can't actually go into that garage to see where it all began.
Me: No, but you can peer down the driveway and get a look from the sidewalk.
Tim: And then there was that Menlo Park garage -- no plaque.
Me: That was the Google (GOOG) garage, birthplace of the world's biggest Internet search company.
Tim: Is anything around here not born in garages? Kids maybe? Anyway, they wouldn't let us go into either of those historic garages. Can we go into this Jobs place?
Me: Afraid not. Jobs' stepmother still lives there. Nice woman, but she might feel a little put out if we traipsed through. I'm guessing a picnic on the lawn is out, too, given those two big signs, "No Trespassing: Security Cameras Are Filming. All Pictures Must be Taken From Street."
Tim: So, this Apple 1 sold for nearly 700 grand. That must be some computer they built in that garage. Is that what makes this cracker box worth $1.8 million?
Me: No. Being in Los Altos makes this cracker box worth $1.8 million.
Tim: So, we can't go in. No picnic on the lawn. Can't even get close for a picture. What good does this historic designation do, anyway?
Me: Well, I mean, with the designation you'd have to take a few extra steps before you could tear the place down.
Tim: Tear it down? It's a perfectly good house. Why would you tear it down?
Me: To build a bigger house, a two- or three-story house, one that takes up the entire lot and looms over its neighbors. It's what we do here. The Jobs' house, minus the historic designation, is what we call a scraper.
Tim: Cute.
Me: Look, this story is too good to wipe off the face of the suburban landscape. Steve Jobs and Wozniak, two kids meet through Jobs' high school friend, put their heads together and come up with a personal computer that the average geek, or devil worshipper, can buy for $666.66. Jobs sells his VW and Woz sells his HP calculator -- yes made by the plaqued-garage outfit -- to get the company rolling.
Tim: Wait. Apple, one of the most valuable companies in the world, got its start from a VW bug and a calculator?
Me: It was a VW van and a programmable calculator. And Jobs and Woz soon found investors. They'd meet them at times in bare feet and in that very garage. It was a different way of doing business.
Tim: I'll say.
Me: But it was a way of doing business that Silicon Valley embraced. Well, except for the bare feet part. The Apple founding story was confirmation that great ideas can come from anywhere. Dropouts? Why not? College kids? Sure. Who needs a fancy office or a full-fledged factory?
Tim: Why not start in a garage?
Me: Exactly.
Tim: Somehow I knew you were going to say that.

track closure
by John Ray » Tue Aug 16, 2011 3:47 pm
to all members without having to log into members only,, my apologies for the track closures you have seen posted lately. the track is in serious danger of going south on us fast with this dry overheated spell we have been experiencing. we have closed the track during the week because we have drip hoses spread everywhere around the track in an effort to hydrate the ground as much as possible. there are hoses runing across the track in several locations to be able to get to the middle and water the inside. we are working on several options to get the hoses across the track without crossing the surface but we still have them all along the side about six to eight inches off the edge and i dont need anyone running off track and cutting them up or winding them up on your kart. so again please bear with us on this situation, hopefully it is temporary.

Hope all is going well, HCKC is seeing some issues as well with the dry spell. We just replaced 150' of straight as well, and some of our concrete edges will need replacement soon.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Sunday, Oct. 28, 2012
NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C. -- The State of South Carolina has been hacked.
"People feel very vulnerable. Understandable," said Rep. Bill Taylor of South Carolina House District 86.
Dozens of emails have flowed into our newsroom. Many of you fear your identities and financial well-being are at risk.
"This is not a good day for South Carolina," said Gov. Nikki Haley on Friday, standing beside South Carolina Law Enforcement Chief Mark Keel.
She said a hacker probed the system five times since August. The latest attack, they say, happened in mid-September. They learned of the security breach about 16 days ago but say the hole has been filled.
"Look, there's 3.6 million names out there and Social Security, and almost 400,000 credit cards and debit cards, some of not encrypted," said Rep. Taylor, who represents a large portion of Aiken County.
He'll be on a conference call with other legislators Monday morning to find out the latest. While the state does have a plan, you have to call an 800 number to get an activation code for credit protection. Most people have just been hearing a busy tone or nothing at all.
The state has released a universal activation code for all current and former South Carolina residents. That activation code is SCDOR123. Enter the code at the website www.protectmyid.com/scdor, or, if you don't have access to internet, call 866-578-5422. Phone lines are open Monday thorough Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Once activated, you will be enrolled for one full year of free credit monitoring provided by Experian.
But Taylor says this breach indicates something bigger.
"Cyber terrorism, or cyber theft, there are 300,000 incidents a day. The U.S. Government alone gets 15,000 a day," he said.
South Carolina was victim this time. Taylor says the state will continue to work diligently to protect all who need protecting.
The South Carolina Department of Revenue does plan to contact South Carolina residents who were affected as soon as it figures out the extent of what data was stolen.

Liverpool Message Board
Kolo Toure.. I like it!
He certainly wasn't the first name to come to my head when thinking of "experienced" defenders to come in, and when City was mentioned, Lescott always came up, which made me want to vomit, but of the two, I actually really like the link, and would welcome it if it happens.
The guy can definitely still play, he's got bags of experience at every single level, with 2 Titles under his belt, and is physical, adept at both CB spots, and creates good depth and challenge for Skrtel.
I think we'll look to bring in another, preferably a really classy, young one at a shrewd price like the kid Llori from Sporting who's a 6'3 star in the making, rumored 3.5M because of their financial troubles. Kolo and Llori would do me, especially because we'd have Wisdom and Kelly in the mix, and combined, if both were to happen, with Kolo on the free, spend very little!
That sure frees up a lot of money and attention elsewhere and makes a name like Eriksen (who's commented recently on joining LFC if agreement is reached) very possible. Rodgers has said it's all about adding depth, and quality, not quantity. Spending 0.0 on Kolo would also avoid 10M on Ashley Williams, which when put in perspective relative to each other is a no brainer..
"The Ivorian's contract with Manchester City expires next month and, having stated his desire to stay in England, he is poised to become a Liverpool player on July 1, once personal terms and a medical can be completed."Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I have been arguing back and forward on another board in favour of this move. We will be buying at least 2 centre halves this summer, we clearly cant afford £25m to buy 2 top players in that position and expect to spend big elsewhere. We need winners and experience, how about 2 league titles, 3 FA cups and been captain of both City and Arsenal. Incidently, he has been back up for the countries best defence for the last 2 years, surely that would suggest he will be good enough to be back up for us and especially when he is free!
The ideal scenario is Martin Kelly comes and owns that position and he is seldom used but he is just as likely to spend another year on the treatment table. I'm sure most fans would be happy with these 4 plus Wisdom/Kelly next year:
Skrtel - Agger - Alderweireld - Toure

"he has been back up for the countries best defence for the last 2 years" the keyword there is back up. He only played 15 league games for City this season and only 14 the season before - and that includes substitute appearances. All this what a great signing he is rubbish reminds me of the way Arsenal fans tried to put a positive spin on their club's signing of Silvestre from United a few years ago. To get in to the top 4 you don't need just a top 4 starting 11 you need a top 4 quality squad and you don't get that by signing players a top 4 club thinks is no longer good enough to even be a back up player.

domnt tell me....just a few more players and you can win the league...hahahaahhaha
it will never happen, why would he want to go to a bunch of serial failures

No Jason U. Not at all but we know we need to get better. We want to get better too. It's good to hear that te club are trying tomake sensible transfers instead of pXXXing £500 notes up the wall as they have done.
As far as what Toure himself feels and wants you'll have to ask him yourself.
Can I just add that I'm in favour of this if it keeps Colin quiet about Ashley Williams.
Yes, this is supposed to be a tongue in cheek comment
- 1 Reply to Colyn
Well that's a given, but I don't think it will help especially because Ashley himself has recently just gave a tongue in cheek comment about his future.
I wouldn't accept still going for Williams if this happens, because Agger and Skrtel will both be 28, Wisdom still has to prove himself and we'd need a class youngster, which Coates apparently is not.. But sticking to this, I think Kolo makes all the sense in the world and if true, July 1st can't come soon enough, along with Christian Eriksen's signature and the 15M measly pounds Ajax want for him.. If I could get that loan from the bank I'd have done it by now, but then again, it would hurt any chance of getting the 62M loan for Cavani,
Choices choices..
Given his experience and physical strength, I think this is a no brainer especially he is available for free. I still want to see Skrtel staying, that means shipping Coates out. This kid has been a disappointment.
Hi Jason. That story has just popped here as well.

Looks like a good move to me, and one none of us anticipated. Think he starts off behind Agger and Skrtel (assuming he stays), but does give us what I think we would have lost in Carra not being around next season.
For CB the questions are, what happens to Skrtel? Personally I hope he stays, but if he is off, got to assume his sale would finance a replacement so not a major hit from a transfer or salary standpoint. Second is what happens to Coates? For me we need youth pushing the starters like we're getting in other positions in the squad (like Ibe on Sunday). Wisdom and Kelly might be players to do that, but right now they are full backs not center halves. So the question is do we sell Coates and bring in a replacement to fill the 4th CB spot, or since we seem to have so far spent nothing can we afford to loan him out for next season (to see if game time brings out his promise) and bring in a more experienced head for that 4th spot?

The Lunar New Year is probably one of the most important Chinese festivals each year as it marks the coming spring. This year, the New Year falls on February 10th. The Lunar New Year is surrounded by age-old myths and folklore. One of the most popular is the legend of the Chinese Zodiac. Chinese astrology follows a cycle of twelve animals. Each represent the Zodiac signs for their respective lunar year, with 2013 being the year of the snake.
According to legend, the Jade Emperor invited all of the animals to participate in a race across the river. The winners would earn the twelve coveted seats in the Chinese Zodiac.
The rat and the cat were clever enough to hitch a ride on the strongest swimmer – the ox. Just before it reached the shore, the rat pushed the cat into the river and jumped off the back of the buffalo and across the finish line, making it the first animal to earn a seat in the Zodiac. The ox then took second.
In third place came the tiger, which was no surprise. But in fourth and fifth place, and nearly tied, came the rabbit followed the dragon. It is said that the dragon, who could have easily won, chose to help the rabbit across the river instead, thus claiming a later place on the calendar.
Behind the dragon, the horse could be seen approaching the shore. But just as he was about to climb out of the water a snake slithered off the horse's hoof. Resulting in the sixth position going to the snake and the seventh to the horse.
The goat, monkey and rooster helped one another across the river on a raft and arrived at the same time. The Jade Emperor was impressed with their resourcefulness and each received a place on the Chinese Zodiac calendar. In eleventh place was the dog, who's arrival was delayed because he enjoyed playing in the water. After a break for a meal and a nap, the pig crossed the line and claimed the calendar's final seat.
And now you know how the animals secured a place on the Chinese Calendar! Oh and the cat? It crossed the river in the 13th position, thus missing out in the competition. The cat blamed its misfortune on the rat and they haven't been friends since!

Review: Lil Mama surpasses Left Eye role expectations in TLC movie
In this undated photo provided by VH1, from left, Drew Sidora, Lil Mama and Keke Palmer play the characters of Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and Rozanda "Chilli" Thomas in the TLC biopic, "CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story," which premieres on Monday, Oct. 21, 2013, on VH1. (AP Photo/VH1, Blake Tyers) The movie had me at the opening credits! VH1's CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story, the #1 trending topic on social sites during its premiere Monday night, reignited the buzz and fan-based admiration for the Grammy award winning trio. The movie covers a lot of the backstage occurrences that we never saw like Left Eye's father's murder, Chili's chilling abortion, and T-Boz's unexpected diagnosis of sickle cell anemia. For 150 minutes, viewers also enjoyed the great moments like when the girls heard their song on the radio for the first time or their very first tour with MC Hammer and Jodeci.

Ice is one of the most dangerous elements faced by retrievers. Besides the obvious dangers of breaking through a hole and drowning, jagged ice can injure a dog. Lyle Steinman, a professional trainer who operates Castile Creek Kennels in Stewartsville, Missouri, Steinman makes sure his retriever is wearing a protective vest, both for warmth and protection, anytime the dog may encounter ice. And if he has any doubt about the safety of a retrieve, he won't send the dog.
Mike Stewart, a professional trainer who operates Wildrose Kennels in Oxford, Mississippi, prepares his dogs for working in ice close to home, but he is careful how he does it. For starters, he never sends a young pup out on ice. A young dog's coat isn't thick enough yet, and if a pup has a bad initial experience with ice, the dog may refuse to retrieve in it later.
Stewart typically starts working a dog in ice and frigid water at 14 to 18 months of age. He begins by allowing the dog to become comfortable on ice by walking along a shallow, frozen shoreline where the water is only a couple of inches deep. "I just work on obedience here," Stewart says. "Getting him to heel on ice is the first step."
Next, Stewart begins sending the dog on short, shallow-water retrieves in thin ice that is easy to break. He wants the dog to learn to break through ice with its front feet while bounding. Only when the dog is older and has some experience does Stewart set up a longer retrieve that is likely to cause the dog to break through the ice and into deeper water. In this situation, he wants the dog to learn to use the solid ice to regain its footing and return to shore, so he conducts drills on ponds that are solidly frozen several yards from the bank.
"Always do your ice work in a controlled environment," Stewart says. "Have your waders on, know how deep the water is, and be able to go get your dog if you need to. If you're not sure about the water depth, don't send the dog."

More than six months after Hurricane Katrina hit, there are still years of cleanup and rebuilding ahead. Local churches are making it their mission to help out all year. News 12 tells you how the Savannah River region is helping in the Gulf Coast.
Construction work: not what we think of as a vacation. But for many churches in Aiken and Augusta, it's how they're using their days off.
"We've had volunteers go that have pacemakers. We have women volunteers go over who said they wanted to go to get their hands dirty. They were tired of going to teas and luncheons," said Reed Gary.
And rebuilding the Gulf Coast is far from it. Reed Gary organizes monthly mission trips for First Baptist Church of Augusta. His teams rebuild homes in Biloxi for people living in FEMA tents.
"The devastation in Mississippi has been so pronounced that we feel that as Christians we're called to care," said Andrew McCaskill.
Andrew McCaskill takes teams from New Covenant Presbyterian Church in Aiken every three months to Pas Christian to lay drywall.
"Many of the local people say if it was not for the churches they wouldn't be able to make it," McCaskill said.
Because church teams are doing more than hammering a nail, they're rebuilding hope.
"Hope is the biggest single thing we can deliver to these people. It's not the amount of sheet rock mud we spread, or screws or bricks or mortar. It's the hearts and minds of the affected people," Gary said.
It's a mission that will continue for years.
First Baptist's Gulf Coast mission teams will bring anyone along who'd like to help. Click here for more information on the team.

German State Threatens Zuckerberg With €20,000 Fine
The German state of Schleswig-Holstein has stepped its action against Facebook by warning its founder and CEO Mark Zuckeberg that he faces a €20,000 ($26,000) fine if the social network continues with its insistence that members use their real names. The state data protection regulator said last month that the German Telemedia Act gives citizens the right to use pseudonyms online.
In letters to Zuckerberg in California, and also to Dublin-based Facebook Ireland Ltd, the data protection commissioner for the northern German state of Schleswig-Holstein, Thilo Weichert, said the current rules violated German law by requiring users to provide their identities. "It is unacceptable that a US portal like Facebook violates German data protection law, unopposed and with no prospect of an end," said Weichert…
However, data protection experts said they thought it was unlikely that Facebook would comply with the latest attempt to force the site into line with German law.
Facebook has filed for legal protection at the administrative court in Schleswig-Holstein. It says the orders are without merit and it will fight them vigorously.
Forbes estimates Mr. Zuckerberg's personal fortune to be around $14 billion.
This is not the first time Facebook has been confronted by privacy regulators from the German state, according to The Guardian. In 2011 Schleswig-Holsten banned local organizations from using the "like" button as it said this allowed the site to monitor users and Hamburg's data protection authority warned that Facebook's facial recognition tool violated German privacy laws.
The best-publicized case, however, involved Austrian law student Max Schrems. In 2010, in the course of researching his thesis, he asked Facebook for the data it held on his account, Wired reports.
Facebook was, in Schrems' words, "dumb enough" to send him all his data in a 1,200-page PDF. It showed that Facebook kept records of every person who had ever poked him, all the IP addresses of machines he had used to access the site (as well as which other Facebook users had logged in on that machine), a full history of messages and chats and even his "last location", which appeared to use a combination of check-ins, data gathered from apps, IP addresses and geo-tagged uploads to work out where he was.
He later founded an advocacy group Europe versus Facebook. The Wired article includes a step-by-step guide to getting the information Facebook holds about an individuals, which they are entitled to see under European data protection laws. The first stage is to use the download tool to collect the "expanded archive"of photos, posts, messages and friend lists. This can be found at facebook.com/settings. According to Mr. Schrems, however, this data set is likely to be incomplete and in Wired he lists other steps to go through for anybody who wants to see a full personal archive.

STOCKTON - Though the sun has been hidden by clouds lately, it's difficult not to think about solar energy when you drive past a Lincoln Unified campus these days.
Sprawling solar-power structures are popping up all over the district. The solar systems will serve all of Lincoln Unified's elementary schools, as well as the district office. Solar energy is expected to start going online during the summer.
Lincoln Unified's dawning solar program is the result of voter approval seven months ago of the district's $48.5 million Measure A bond.
About one-third of the bond is earmarked for the solar systems. Other projects to be paid for by the bond include modernizations at Lincoln High School and at Claudia Landeen and Mable Barron elementary schools.
Passage of the bond in June allowed Lincoln Unified to tap into about $7 million in low-interest federal Clean Renewable Energy Bonds, an opportunity that would have expired in October had voters rejected Measure A.
District officials have said the solar program will save Lincoln Unified about $1 million a year in energy costs. The savings will be to the district's unrestricted fund, allowing Lincoln Unified to spend more from its general fund on educational programs and less on energy.

EAGLE COUNTY, Colorado - Almost a year after talks began, Eagle County is still exploring options for relocating or reorganizing a 15-acre rest area in Edwards.
The Colorado Department of Transportation owns the property and has indicated it is OK with the idea as long as the same number of truck parking spaces and services are available between Dotsero and Vail Pass.
The county has been looking at potential sites to relocate the rest area, which would likely be done with a land swap or outright purchase.
Commissioner Jon Stavney has said that the roundabouts in Edwards have made the current location less convenient for truckers and that there might be a better use for that land and a better place or places for the rest-area facilities.
"It's a prime spot in the middle of Edwards," he said.
"There's a nice river corridor there. Most people in our community have never set foot on that property - I would invite them to see it for themselves and imagine what it could be."
Eagle County Engineer Eva Wilson met with the commissioners Tuesday and updated them about the latest findings for rest-area possibilities.
"We did some investigating with CDOT and community leaders to see if any community would entertain a truck stop," Wilson said. "No one will."
The county fairgrounds in Eagle was one of the options considered.
Wilson said Wilmore Lake and New York Mountain Overlook areas are right on Interstate 70 and are potential choices for truck parking, but access geometry will be difficult and the lack of amenities is a concern.

DOE Offers $21.45 Million for Community Renewable Energy Projects
July 22, 2009
This 600-kilowatt wind turbine provides power to Forbes Park, a mixed-use community near Boston, Massachusetts.
DOE offered $21.45 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds on July 15 for up to four U.S. communities to use in planning and installing utility-scale renewable energy projects. The projects will demonstrate how multiple renewable energy technologies can be deployed at scale to supply clean energy to communities. The renewable energy systems may include solar, wind, biomass, landfill gas, geothermal, and ocean energy systems, as well as upgrades to existing hydropower systems.
Applicants must provide matching funds and will ideally be ready to implement their projects with readily deployable renewable energy systems. Completed applications are due September 3, and DOE will select the projects by the end of November. See the DOE press release and see the full Funding Opportunity Announcement by searching the public opportunities on FedConnect for reference number DE-FOA-0000122.

This software is amazing! I love using it when I play movies from my Mac to my PS3. I am having the odd time problem where the video will start to pause half way through the movie. It usually fixes itself but it is kind of a buzz kill when your getting into the movie. I always let the movie buffer before playing it and usually if I pause it when it starts to stop playing and wait a minutes it is fixed but it happens a lot. Is there a setting I can change to make the movie play right through without having a pause here and there?
here is my setup
PS3 and 2010 MacBook Pro connected to the internet via ethernet cable
download speed 65Mbps upload speed 5 Mbps
MKV files around 15-20GB (1080, DTS, sometimes 3D)

Pennsylvania Judges Sue over Mandatory Retirement Provision
Six Pennsylvania judges are suing to invalidate a state constitutional provision that requires them to retire at age 70.
Standing in their way is a 1990 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, Gregory v. Ashcroft, that upheld a similar mandatory retirement requirement in Missouri. But the judges and their lawyers are hoping that advances in medicine, new research on aging and evolving law on the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause will help them sustain their challenge.
The challenge could have national implications. Thirty-three states and the District of Columbia enforce age limits for at least some of their judges, according to the National Center for State Courts.
The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania, cites new evidence that the prevalence of cognitive impairment in older Americans has decreased, even since the early 1990s.
"Notwithstanding the United States Supreme Court's decision a generation, ago in Gregory v. Ashcroft…societal and demographic changes demonstrate that this precedent should no longer obtain," the complaint says.
The judges — John Driscoll, John W. Herron, Benjamin Lerner, Sandra Mazer Moss, Joseph D. O'Keefe and Leonard N. Zito — sit on a variety of state courts.
In Pennsylvania, judges are elected to 10-year terms. They make between $169,541 and $195,309 a year until they turn 70, at which point they may continue to serve as senior judges but make considerably less and receive no paid sick days, paid vacation or life insurance benefits.
The lawsuit makes the case that the judges enjoy a fundamental right to work, and that the mandatory retirement provision violates their equal protection and due process rights under the 14th Amendment.
"To be a good judge requires good judgment, and judgment is a function of, inter alia, age and experience. Judicial performance thus frequently peaks late in life," the complaint says.
In Gregory, the Supreme Court held that Missouri could rationally conclude that the threat of deterioration at the age of 70 was great enough to warrant mandatory retirement.
"What we expect what will happen is that new facts, changing times and evolving law will permit us to come to a successful conclusion in this case," said Robert C. Heim of Dechert LLP, who is representing the judges.
A spokeswoman for Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett, who is named as a defendant in the lawsuit, had no immediate comment on the complaint.

But also experiencing serious admiration. I love the variety of looks you chose to showcase her style. Stunning, and proof she can pull off anything. Happy almost weekend, dear friend!

She definitely has a great sense of style. I particularly like that she doesn't stick to one thing... her outfits are always 'fresh' and different. Keeps it interesting!
I really like that last picture of her with the top knot. For some reason I can never create a good knot. Oh wait, no, I can... Right before I'm heading to bed. HA! Of course.
Happy happy Friday!! xoxo

Good morning and welcome to Summit Up, the world's only daily column that is wondering just what Time Magazine was thinking back in 1938.
The storied publication named Adolf Hitler its man of the year. We had heard rumor of this strange choice before, but never gave it much thought, that was until we were "doing research" at our desk (really just surfing the ol' interwebs) when we ran across the website www.interestingfacts.net. The site is chalk full of all kinds of useless knowledge - just the kind we like.
This made us think of the Saturday Night Live sketchs where Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler used to rif on news items that seemed a bit absurd.
The gist of this ramble is that when we saw this little tidbit about Time, all we could think was: "Really, Time Magazine? Really?"
Well, that's about all we've got today. We hear that it just might snow today and highly recommend that you head out and take advantage of Ullr's bounty.

The following is an excerpt from our 2011 Annual Report. Our 2012 Annual Report will be out soon.
The Vermont Blueprint for Health is a state-led initiative aimed at improving care coordination, especially for the chronically ill. The goals of the initiative are to improve health, enhance the patient experience and reduce, or at least control, health care costs.
This is accomplished through what the Blueprint is calling "advanced primary care" that seamlessly coordinates a broad range of health and human services for patients and their families.
In 2011, the Vermont Blueprint for Health came to life at Gifford. Each of the medical center's primary care practices was recognized as a Patient-Centered Medical Home and a huge care coordination effort got under way to meet patients' diverse needs.
The care coordination effort, which is supported in part by grant dollars, is twofold. First, Gifford formed its own small care coordination team made up of three core employees; Blueprint Care Coordinator Keith Marino, Gifford Diabetes Educator Jennifer Stratton and
Health Connections Caseworker Michele Packard. Second, a larger Community Health Team consisting of a diverse group of state and regional community housing, aging and disability agencies as well as eye care professionals, a pharmacy, insurers and more, was formed.
The Community Health Team meets quarterly while a care coordination team meets weekly. More importantly, referrals are bouncing back and forth between the agencies and teams ensuring patients are getting the services they need to maintain and improve their health. Keith coordinates this work, meeting directly with patients, spending time in each
of Gifford's Patient-Centered Medical Homes, conferring with health care providers and helping patients access needed services.
Patients and community members are referred to Keith for a huge variety of reasons. They may need help managing chronic conditions, be struggling socio-economically, need mental health assistance, be disabled or elderly, have housing or transportation needs or just need help navigating the health system.
The Blueprint provides that help directly or refers them to an appropriate community agency. The help comes in the form of one-on-one meetings with Keith and outreach on his part to get the patient connected with needed resources.
"My role is to make sure patients are getting access to proper services, which enables them to self-manage their chronic condition," Keith says.
Medicine Division Vice President Teresa Voci gives the example of a chronically ill patient who, because of financial pressures, has to choose between food and medication. Without medication, their health suffers. With the Blueprint services, their health care provider has a central resource to offer the patient for those issues that fall outside the health care setting but are barriers to care, like help with finding resources to buy food and medications.
Kim Flood of Barre is a real life example.
All three of Kim's sons were diagnosed with asthma. The younger two, ages 4 and 1, were especially sick, including being hospitalized. Kim thought she knew the problem – mold in her Barre apartment.
Pediatric hospitalist Dr. Lou DiNicola referred Kim to the Blueprint. "Keith helped us find someone to do mold testing, help us with legal aid," Kim says, "and he got city officials to come to the apartment. I had tried for months to get the housing inspector and building inspector to our house. I just got the runaround from everyone."
With the mold verified and the help of legal aid, Kim settled with the landlord and in October moved into a home she bought in Barre Town on nine acres.
The kids haven't been sick since.
Kim is one of 230 referrals Gifford's Blueprint team has received since Keith was hired and the program got under way in February, notes Blueprint Project Coordinator LaRae Francis. Most of the referrals are from primary care providers, like Dr. Terry Cantlin of the Bethel Health Center.
"He's been invaluable," says Dr. Cantlin of Keith, who does the work primary care physicians simply do not have time to do in their busy practices.
Now if a patient is not taking their medication due to financial pressures, is missing needed appointments because of transportation issues or struggling with social issues – all scenarios Dr. Cantlin sees – he now has a one-stop resource for the patient.
It also prevents patients unaware of available community resources from "falling through the cracks," says Mary Ellen Otis, executive director of the Orange County Parent Child Center in Chelsea.
That center, which provides a vast array of family services from new baby visits to parenting education, is part of the Community Health Team and refers clients to Gifford as well as gets referrals from the hospital. Under the new coordinated effort, Mary Ellen says, referrals are now far more efficient.
Maryette Withington can attest to that.
The Barnard resident has a relative with Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Cantlin referred Maryette to Keith for help learning more about the disease. He met with her at the Bethel Health Center and connected her with the Randolph Area Senior Center and the Vermont Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association. Within 24 hours Maryette had information in her hands about the disease that she says has changed everything in her life.
"You're totally responsible for that person. I just needed to know what to expect."
She will have an ongoing relationship with the association and also continues to receive help from Keith, Dr. Cantlin and her Gifford health care team. It's help she appreciates. "I have the best health care team in the world," she says.

Denmark, 2012, 83 Minute Running Time
Sunday, September 29 @ 4:30 pm
Sponsored by AIA-Denver Chapter
Fifty percent of the worlds population live in urban areas. By 2050 this figure is expected to increase to eighty percent. The megacity is both enchanting and scary. But how do we plan these cities in a way, which take human behavior into account?
In the 20th Century the struggle to provide large numbers of people with proper housing, work spaces and transport led the modernists to create gigantic systems of highrise buildings, industrial estates and high ways. The material gains are evident. What are the costs? Jan Gehl's thesis is that basic human needs for interaction, inclusion and intimacy was somewhat forgotten during this process. Today we face peak oil, climate change and severe health issues due to our rapid growth. With en exploding population we need to double our urban capacity within 30 years. Can a people oriented planning be the solution?
The main question is pressing and includes us all. From the slum of Bangladesh to the financial district in New York. What is a happy life, and can a city make us happy? What is a good city? Is it made of highways, gated communities and highrise structures? Or is it made of bikeways, parks and walking streets? Can architecture meet our human needs in the face of future challenges? THE HUMAN SCALE meets thinkers, architects and urban planners across the globe. It questions our assumptions about modernity, exploring what happens when we put people into the center of our planning.

With Apple shares down about 28% from last year's record highs, some investors say short sellers have been playing a role in the stock price's recent descent.
The amount of Apple shares sold short increased to more than 21 million in mid-November, the highest level since November 2008, according to S&P Capital IQ. As of Dec. 31, that amount had dropped to 17.9 million, but still remained among the highest levels of 2012.
Short sellers borrow shares in hopes of buying them back at a later date, aiming to profit from a price decline.
"The shorts continue to pound the stock," Robert Pavlik, chief market strategist at Banyan Partners in New York, said in a chat with MarketBeat.

- BlackBerry Launch a Dud; Shares Keep Falling
- Apple's Big Technical Breakthrough Could Bode Well
Pavlik, whose firm has about $1.4 billion in assets under management, said several of Banyan's separately managed accounts own Apple shares and had been adding exposure at the end of last year. But as the stock fell below $500 earlier this week, he said he's sitting nervously and waiting for what lies ahead.
"I think you have to really watch it now," he said. "The downside pressure is prevalent and the technicals just do not look good on this right now."
Short interest amounts to only 1.9% of total shares outstanding, a relatively low amount compared to other S&P 500 stocks. But the increase at the end of 2012 was still noticeable. And with more investors betting against the stock, any future gains could force them to buy back stock to cover their bets, creating a "short squeeze" that could propel the stock even higher.
Shares recently fell 0.5% to $503.80. The stock fell as low as $485.92 on a closing basis on Tuesday.
Many investors are pointing to Apple's earnings report on Jan. 23 as being a key determinant of the stock's near-term direction. Analysts are becoming more skeptical, with a bunch of firms slashing their recommendations, earnings forecasts and price targets in recent weeks.
Buy recommendations on Apple have fallen to 85% from 92% in September, according to FactSet, which analyzed 54 recommendations. Analysts have cut their price targets by 7%, to an average of $734.96 from $792.40 in September.
These reasons have made some investors hesitant to dip their toes in the murky water.
Michael Farr, a large-cap growth manager at Farr, Miller & Washington, which manages about $800 million, hasn't owned Apple. But he and his colleagues have been thinking about buying over the last few months.
"We've been awfully close and it's been a heated debate," Farr says. "But we also don't want to get in front of the rock when it starts rolling back down the hill."

AUSTIN (February 6, 2013)—Two key lawmakers introduced a bill Wednesday in Austin that would allow Texas doctors to delegate limited prescription authority to nurses and physician assistants in more situations.
Sen. Jane Nelson and Rep. Lois Kolkhorst, both Republican chairs of key health care committees, announced Wednesday they want to give doctors more latitude in allowing advanced practice nurses and physician assistants to treat patients.
The lawmakers say Senate Bill 406 would help ease the statewide shortage of primary care doctors because physicians would no longer have to be on-site and could supervise more nurses and physician assistants.
The bill would also encourage better coordination between medical boards to maintain patient safety, they said.
The Texas Medical Association expressed support for the bill saying it would promote better treatment by allowing for a team-based, collaborative approach.

Four Reasons the Syria Deal Could Fall Apart
The U.S.-Russian deal on Syria has been lauded by President Barack Obama and others as a way to avert military force while addressing the crisis over the government's alleged use of chemical weapons.
But the road map unveiled Saturday after three days of talks between U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov may prove to not have a solid foundation.
The framework agreement contains a series of deadlines and requirements that could slip in the face of a government that has long been secretive about its arsenal and resistant to international inspections. Complicating the picture is the 2 1/2-year-old civil war, which will make it difficult, if not impossible, for international inspectors to do their work.
Here are some of the deadlines laid out in the framework agreement Saturday between Messrs. Kerry and Lavrov and what could go wrong with them:
The requirement: By next Friday, Syria is required to provide a declaration of its chemical weapons stockpile to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.
The potential risk: Syria may not be able or willing to make a full and truthful disclosure on time. The Wall Street Journal reported recently that the regime has been moving its arsenal, and any sign that it is not acting in good faith could imperil the deal.
The requirement: Syria is required to provide "immediate and unfettered" access to OPCW inspectors.
The potential risk: Syria has shown little hospitality to international monitors, even in the very recent past. Snipers fired last month at United Nations inspectors trying to reach the site of the Aug. 21 chemical attack that precipitated the current crisis, and the regime in the past has held up the entry of U.N. workers trying to investigate evidence of chemical attacks.
The requirement: Initial inspections of Syria's chemical weapons needs to be completed by November.
The potential risk: It's an aggressive timetable for a country like Syria and for a war zone.
The requirement: U.S. and Russia want to dismantle all of Syria's chemical-weapon program in the first half of 2014.
The potential risk: If the U.S. and Russia can't get past the agreement's first steps, they are much less likely to complete the dismantling.

About the Book
Not Without Hope is the true story of the headline-making tragedy that took the lives of three football players: NFL stars Marquis Cooper and Corey Smith, and Will Bleakley from the University of South Florida. Told by the sole survivor of the ill-fated fishing trip, Nick Schuyler, with New York Times bestselling author and sports journalist Jere Longford, Not Without Hope is an inspiring and unforgettable story of courage and strength, friendship and loss, and, most importantly, hope, in the vein of Touching the Void, Into Thin Air, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, and Piers Paul Read's classic survival tale, Alive. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
On February 28, 2009, Nick Schuyler went on a deep-sea fishing trip with three friends: NFL players Marquis Cooper and Corey Smith, and Will Bleakley, former University of South Florida football player and Nick's best friend. What was supposed to be a day of fun and relaxation aboard Cooper's twenty-one-foot vessel turned nightmarish in the Gulf of Mexico, seventy miles west of Tampa, Florida, when a tragic mistake caused their boat to capsize. With no food or water, no emergency beacon to alert authorities, the four athletes clung to the overturned hull through the night—battling hypothermia, hallucinations, hunger, dehydration, and huge pounding waves, as they prayed, spoke of their loved ones, and shared what they would have done differently with their lives. In the end, only one would reach dry land alive.
Much more than a riveting true account of survival, Not Without Hope is Nick Schuyler's inspiring story of courage, resolve, and friendship.
