The National University of Ireland, Maynooth (Irish: Ollscoil na hÉireann Má Nuad), commonly known as Maynooth University, is a constituent university of the National University of Ireland in Maynooth, County Kildare, Ireland. It is Ireland's youngest university, having been founded by the Universities Act, 1997 from the secular faculties of the now separate St Patrick's College, Maynooth, which was founded in 1795.[2]
The university consists of two connected campuses; an older south campus with 19th century buildings, shared with St Patrick's College, and a modern north campus, occupying circa 100 acres (0.40 km2).[3][4] With around 8,800 registered students, it is Ireland's smallest, yet fastest growing university.[5][6] In 2009, NUI Maynooth was listed as a Top500 university in the Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings.[7][8] The 2012 QS World University Rankings puts NUIM in the 501-550 bracket worldwide. In 2008 it was named Sunday Times University of the Year. In 2011, NUI Maynooth became the first and only institution outside of North America to be included in the Princeton Review of Best Colleges. Most recently, in 2015, NUI Maynooth was ranked 551-600 in the QS World University Rankings.
In 2012, The University was the first outside of the United States to be ranked among the top 376 in the world, according to The Princeton Review.[9][10]

18th and 19th centuries[edit]
The university and St Patrick's College, Maynooth have a common history from 1795 to 1997. The college in Maynooth was established by the government as a college for Catholic lay and ecclesiastical students in 1795, archives of which can be found here[11] the lay college was based from 1802 in Riverstown House on the south campus, with the opening of Clongowes Wood, the lay college which had lay trustees[12] was closed in 1817[13] and it functioned solely as a Catholic seminary for almost 150 years. In 1876 the college became a constituent college of the Catholic University of Ireland, and later offered Royal University of Ireland degrees in arts and science. The Pontifical Charter was granted to the college in 1896.
20th and 21st centuries[edit]
The college became a recognised constituent college of the National University of Ireland in 1910. From this time, arts and science degrees were awarded by the National University of Ireland, while the Pontifical University of Maynooth continued to confer its own theology degrees, as these had been prohibited in the Royal University of Ireland, and continued to the National University of Ireland (its successor) until 1997.[citation needed]
In 1966 the college allowed again the entry of lay students; this greatly expanded the college and essentially set the foundation stone for the National University of Ireland, Maynooth. In 1997 the Universities Act resulted in the transfer of the faculties of arts, Celtic studies, philosophy and science of the recognised college of St Patrick's College to the new university. The university has also expanded into finance and engineering since its creation in 1997. In 2007 the university added business studies, followed by law in 2008.
Any person who was a student at St Patrick's College, Maynooth, and was conferred with a National University of Ireland degree prior to the creation of the university is legally considered a graduate of the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.[14]
In 1994, W. J. Smyth was appointed to the position of Master of St. Patrick's College Maynooth (NUI). In 1997 this position became President of NUIM. In 2004 W. J. Smyth was succeeded by John Hughes as president of the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.
On 2 December 2011, eight students from NUIM, including the university's student union president Rob Munnelly, began occupying the Naas constituency office of Fine Gael TD Anthony Lawlor amid concerns about increased tuition fees.[15] They did so with sleeping bags, clothes, a chemical toilet and a week's supply of food and were supported by other students on Facebook and Twitter.[16][17] During the occupation Munnelly debated with Lawlor live on Kildare TV, USI President Gary Redmond visited the revolting students and a banner with the slogan "SAVE THE GRANT" was erected at Lawlor's entrance.[18][19]

The university campus straddles the main Maynooth to Kilcock Road in County Kildare. It is divided into the North Campus and the South Campus (also referred to by staff and students as the "new" and "old" campuses respectively). The campuses were connected by means of a footbridge that crossed over the road until mid-2011. The footbridge was then decommissioned due to the construction of a library extension on the South Campus. The campuses are now connected by means of a pedestrian crossing on the Kilcock Road.
South Campus[edit]
The South Campus houses the facilities of St. Patrick's College, as well as most of administrative offices it shares with NUIM. A number of NUIM academic departments also have their offices on the South Campus including mathematics, music, geography, economics and history. The main buildings, most of which were built in the 19th century, are the Aula Maxima; St. Patrick's House (including the college chapel); the John Paul II Library (built in 1984); New, Dunboyne, Humanity and Stoyte Houses which collectively form St. Joseph's Square; Logic House and Rhetoric House.
The first building to be completed on the South Campus was named after its designer, John Stoyte. Stoyte House, still a prominent presence on campus, stands in proximity to Maynooth Castle.
. Over the next 15 years, the site at Maynooth underwent rapid construction so as to cater for the influx of new students, and the buildings which now border St. Joseph's Square (to the rear of Stoyte House) were completed by 1824. The university chapel is located on the South Campus, just off St. Joseph's Square; masses and choir services are frequently held in the chapel, as is the traditional Christmas carol service. The South Campus also houses the National Science Museum.[24]
North Campus[edit]
The North Campus was developed far more recently than the South Campus, in the latter half of the 20th century. Here, the main buildings are the Students' Union, Sports Complex, Biosciences and Engineering Building, Callan Science Building (named after the inventor of the induction coil, Nicholas Callan), the Iontas building, the Arts Building, the Science Building and the John Hume Building. The Eolas building houses the department of Computer Science, the Business Incubation Centre and IVI, Hamilton and Callan Institutes, along with several teaching spaces.[25]
The North Campus also contains the student residences, most of the student service departments, a number of playing fields and a sports complex, which includes a fully equipped gym, that is free to all university students. The remainder of NUIM's academic departments as well as many research institutes such as the Institute of Microelectronics and Wireless Systems, the Hamilton Institute and the Institute of Immunology are also located on the North Campus.
Kilkenny Campus[edit]
The university has also maintained a campus in Kilkenny since September 1997, based at St. Kieran's College, with students enrolled in certificate, diploma and degree programmes.
Academic organisation and reputation[edit]
The university is divided into three faculties: Arts, Celtic Studies and Philosophy; Science and Engineering; Social Sciences, with most students studying within one of these streams (although some cross-discipline courses are available). The faculties are further divided into various schools and departments.
As of 2009, there were 990 students at post graduate level.[26] Some postgraduate students also have links to the various research institutes that are based on campus.
As well as the main campus in Maynooth town, the university also has a campus in Kilkenny city. Froebel College of Education will also become part of NUI Maynooth by 2013.

They may not be as popular as their cousins, but these animals whose names start with the letter P are simply awesome in their own right.
Aside from Pig, penguin, panda, pigeon, pelican, puma, panther, pug…. the animal Kingdom offers as with other awesome animals whose names start with the letter P. Here is a list of what I consider, least-known letter P animals.
photo link
Puffins are stocky penguin-like seabirds inhabiting the open sea, steep cliffs and islands of the North Atlantic Ocean and North Pacific Ocean. All three extant species (Horned Puffin, Tufted Puffin, and Atlantic Puffin) have large beaks, short-wings and short-tails, wide webbed feet, and generally sporting black and white plumage. These pelagic seabirds average 30 cm long and weighs 345 – 488 g. Generally, males are bigger than females. Puffins are excellent divers, feeding mostly on sand eels, fish larvae and other aquatic invertebrates.

A pademelon is a small marsupial found inhabiting dense forests of Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania and parts of New Guinea. The majority of the seven known species has dark-brown upperparts and red-brown underparts. It has a relatively short tail and legs. Adult males, which are bigger than females average around 1 – 1.2 m long, including the tail and can weigh up to 12 kg. This solitary and nocturnal animal, feeds on green grasses, green shoots and herbs.
photo link
Found mostly in tundra areas, the Ptarmigan is a small chicken-like bird that lives year round in the Arctic. It has a stocky body, rounded white wings, feathered feet, and short tails. This odd bird changes its plumage color thrice in a year. It sports a brownish with dark stripes plumage in summer, grayish color in fall and white during winter. Its diet includes: leaves, berries and sometimes other small insects.
Proboscis Monkey
photo link
The proboscis monkey or long-nosed monkey, is a reddish-brown monkey that is widespread on the island of Borneo, Malaysia. It is found living along riverbanks, swamps and mangrove forests. A remarkable feature of this arboreal monkey is the male's large, fleshy nose that can reach up to 7 inches long. Juveniles have blackish fur and blue face with relatively normal nose. Adults are generally reddish-brown in color and with grayish limbs. On average, males grow to about 72 cm in length and weighing up to 24 kg. Proboscis monkey feeds mainly on leaves, mangrove shoots, fruits and seed. The IUCN listed this monkey as Endangered.
photo link
Peccary, often called Javelina, is a medium-sized mammal resembling a wild pig that is widespread in southwestern United States, South and Central America. Just like wild pigs, peccaries have large heads, small ears and tails, circular snout, spear-like canine teeth and sport dark coarse hair. On average, they measure between 90 to 130 centimeters and can reach 20 to 40 kilograms in weight. Generally omnivores, their diet consist of grass, fruits, roots and seed.
photo link
The pika is any member of the Ochotonidae, which is characterized by its rounded ears, short limbs. and short tail. This small animal native to cold climates is found in North America and central Asia. Recognizable by its high-pitched alarm call, pika is often referred to as the "whistling hare". Adult pikas measure 15-25 cm in length and about 170-400 g in weight. This diurnal 9active at night) animal has big ears and sports soft fur; gray-brown upperparts and white on the belly. A known herbivore, it feeds on grasses, leaves, twigs, herbs and bark.
Pied Tamarin
photo link
The Pied tamarin (Saguinus bicolor) is a small, endangered monkey inhabiting tropical forests of Manaus, Brazil. This diurnal and arboreal primate exhibit black hairless face, a white chest, brown or tan hind legs and brown to black tail. Adults average 20.8–28.3 cm in body length with about 33.5–42.0 cm long tail and weigh between 400 – 430 grams. and a black hairless face. Tamarins are omnivorous, they feed on insects, spiders, birds' eggs, other small vertebrates, flowers, fruits and nectar.
photo link
A polecat is a solitary animal belonging to the weasel family, found in Asia, Europe, and certain parts of Africa. Its favored habitat includes, riverbanks, farmlands and woodlands. It has a long, slender body, rounded ears, short muzzles, short tail, and sensitive whiskers. It sports a long, black fur with yellow patches on the face and ears. On average, a polecat measures 55 centimeters long with a 10 centimeters long tail. Most polecats are nocturnal and carnivores, feeding on fish, small birds, reptiles, eggs, and other small mammals.
photo link
The pudú is any of two species of small deer native to South America. Considered as the world's smallest deer, pudus measure about 32 to 44 centimeters at shoulder high, about 85 centimeters long and weigh up to 12 kilograms. They have small hooves, small black eyes, dewclaws, rounded ears, black noses and short tails. The long and coarse fur varies in color, from a dark brown to reddish brown hue. Pudus are solitary and herbivore animals, feeding on leaves, vines, young sprouts, herbs, flowers, buds and fallen fruits.
photo link
A pangolin, also called the "scaly anteater", is a long-tailed mammal inhabiting warm regions of Asia and Africa. its preferred habitats include savannas and woodlands close to water. This nocturnal animal is distinguishable by its large, hardened, plate-like scales, powerful claws, and elongated tongue. Pangolins range in sizes from 30 cm to 100 cm. Pangolins feed on ants, termites and other small insects.

The promoter of the big Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley fight, says Mosley was selected to fight the sport's pound-for-pound king because his aggressive style guarantees excitement for the fans who order the Showtime Pay-Per-View event on May 7.
"We chose Shane because he's an all-action fighter," Bob Arum, CEO of Top Rank, said during a recent conference call. "He's always delivered excitement for the fans and on May 7 he's in with an all-action fighter. They're going to give fans a hellacious entertaining fight."
There wasn't much action or entertainment during Mosley's fights with Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Sergio Mora last year. The 39-year-old veteran looked like an over-the-hill fighter losing a lopsided decision to Mayweather and struggling to a draw with Mora.
Those two bouts are the reason most fans and media give Mosley little-to-no shot of beating Pacquiao. However, even skeptical observers agree with Arum's take that Mosley's aggressive style will mesh with Pacquiao's usual high-octane offense to make for a fun fight.
Don't be so sure of that, Naazim Richardson said on a recent conference call.
Mosley's trainer told members of the media not to be surprised if Pacquiao becomes as defensive minded as Mora and Mayweather once the Filipino hero gets hit by his fighter.
Richardson, who also trains Bernard Hopkins, admits that the notion of Pacquiao staying behind the jab like Mayweather or moving about the ring as Mora does is almost surreal, one that even his fighter doubts.
"I seem to be in the minority, even within my own camp," Richardson said. "Everyone is saying Mora and Mayweather are defensive fighters and that Manny is an aggressive fighter. Shane is quick to claim that [Pacquiao] is a gladiator, but I tell him 'Shane, you've never been hit by Shane Mosley.
"I've been hit by Shane Mosley (at times when holding the mitts). I know how hard he hits, so I have to prepare Shane for a defensive fighter no matter who he's fighting, because when Shane cracks you, you become a defensive fighter."
Richardson says Mayweather and the undefeated star's team had promised to fight more than box against Mosley during their showdown last May, which Mayweather won by near shutout. The only round Mayweather lost on all three official scorecards was the second, a round in which he was visibly rocked by a right hand from Mosley.
"Mayweather had a game plan to come out more aggressive and to fight in a more crowd-pleasing style until he got hit with that 'hooey' in second round and he reverted back to his old style," Richardson said.
The respected trainer from Philadelphia believes the same thing could occur with Pacquiao and he says his fighter will be prepared for that outcome should it happen.
"Pacquiao can easily become a defensive fighter once he gets cracked by Shane," Richardson said. "So I have to prepare Shane for a guy who runs around the ring to avoid him."
Manny Pacquiao running around the ring? Avoiding confrontation? Really?
"Fighters at this level have had to do everything it takes to get this far," Richardson said. "They've had to walk through punches, go to war at times, and fight defensively when need be. Pacquiao can become a jabber and mover if he has to."
Richardson says Mosley will be prepared to hunt Pacquiao down in the event the super star elects to stick and move.
"Manny Pacquiao is a special fighter but so is Shane Mosley," he said. "Shane's still got knockout power at his age and he's one of the few athletes in boxing who can score a knockout late in a fight. If that's what he has to do to beat Pacquiao that's what he will do."

|Conventional Cells--The Last Step Toward General Acceptance of Standard Conventional Cells for the Reporting of Crystallographic Data
|August 01, 2002
|The Absolute Integrating Sphere Method is now used at NIST for the detector-based calibration of total luminous flux of lamps, as well as for the realization of the lumen. This method has many benefits for high-accuracy applications, allowing for measurement of total luminous flux based on an illuminance standard photometer, not requiring use of total luminous flux standard lamps, thus eliminating uncertainties associated with the transfer process and aging of the working standard lamps. This method requires calibration of many components in the sphere system and is not suited for industrial laboratories. To avoid this difficulty, a new approach for industrial use of this method is proposed. An absolute integrating sphere system of the same design as that of NIST can be calibrated directly against the total luminous flux standard lamps from a national laboratory, with no need for characterization of all the parameters required for the absolute sphere method, and still allows for the same detector-based measurements with all the benefits to achieve lower uncertainties. The principles of this approach and experimental plans for an absolute integrating sphere being built at GE Lighting are presented.

The first piece of the developed software was dedicated to reading the original data. To this end, Fig.A presents an example of the output of this software, where two images, the original video stream on the left and the raw difference between the two frames on the right, are changing dynamically. Five control buttons were added to allow scrolling data back and force in attempt to find the range of the frames for further processing. The ultimate goal of the project is to reliably find the frame coordinates of multiple pop-up objects (when they occur) with respect to multiple surveyed reference points. While these reference points (appearing on the left plot on Fig.A as the white dots) are relatively easy to find, the pop-up objects themselves have little contrast and of course their location is not known a priori. That is why the difference between two frames presented on the right plot on Fig.A was though to be an important tool allowing detecting new objects more easily. On the snapshot presented on Fig.A the difference is taken for the intensity of one of the channels (RGB - red, green or blue) between the frame 70 and frame 40 (30 frames or 1 second apart). Two popped-up points are seen near x=150, y=325 area. The thought is that if we could correlate two consequent frames, so that everything on them appears on the same place except some newly introduced objects, then we could simply subtract one frame from another and have a reliable detection tool.
Figure A. The developed Playback Tool.
As seen from Fig.A, the simple subtraction of one frame from another still leaves a lot of objects having much higher intensity compared to that of the popped-up points. The reason for that is that the observer camera is not still – it moves and therefore disturbs the image (rotates and translates it to say the least). Hence, the images have to be preprocessed or normalized.

Comments about Jack Black Deep Dive Glycolic Facial Cleanser, 5 oz:
I initially purchased Jack Black Deep Dive Glycolic Facial Cleanser last year for my husband, and he hasn't used anything since then. He also uses the Jack Black body lotion, hand lotion, lip balm and any other Jack Black product on the market. He is in LOVE with these products. These products have overall improved his skin, prevented blackheads and break-outs on his face and back. The smell is not overwhelming....somewhat masculine and musky at the same time. He uses the Glycolic Facial Cleanser twice a week, and uses another Jack Black facial cleaner on the other days. He has really enjoyed taking care of his skin and takes pride in doing so. So, thank you Beauty.com, for selling such a great product at a reasonable price! I plan on continuing to purchase these products in the future! I also enjoy the discounts Beauty.com offers!
- Fragrance Type:
- Fresh/Aquatic, Woody/Earthy
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

"The Sound of Music" features many familiar songs — such as "Do-Re-Mi," "My Favorite Things" and "So Long." But the song that really captures the spirit of the much-loved musical is "Climb Ev'ry Mountain," says Kelly Eggers, director of the upcoming Oyster River Players production of the show at Exeter Town Hall on Jan. 18, 19 and 20. The play tells the true story of the musical von Trapp family, who stood up to the Nazis in Austria in the late 1930s. "They provide a great model of ordinary people acting the way we really should in extraordinary circumstances," says Eggers, "and they literally 'climb every mountain' in the process."
Alex Huber of Newmarket sees many models of people in the play who "do the right thing"—including his own character, a comical concert promoter named Max Detweiler. "He's always telephoning the Nazis, and they know him," says Huber. "But in the end, he helps the von Trapps, who are his friends, escape from the Nazis."
When people remember the movie of "The Sound of Music," with Julie Andrews and the singing and dancing children, Eggers says, there's a "sugary quality" to it. But there's much more to this story than that, she says. "'The Sound of Music' is about how faith in your God, your family and your country can give you the courage to be your best self."
The Oyster River Players will present "The Sound of Music" at Exeter Town Hall on Friday, Jan. 18, at 7 p.m.; Saturday, Jan. 19, at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m.; and Sunday, Jan. 20, at 1 p.m. Suggested donation: adults, $8; children, $5. Tickets at the door only. For information: 312-2228, firstname.lastname@example.com, www.oysterriverplayers.org.

Cartoonist Ken Krimstein Explains the Key to Jewish Humor
When trying to define humor, E. B. White famously opined: "Humor can be dissected, as a frog can, but the thing dies in the process." Having just written and drawn an entire book of Jewish cartoons, I concur, but I would rephrase the master: "Jewish humor can be dissected like one of my Aunt Estelle's matzo balls, but who's got a scalpel sharp enough?"
There's no question that Jews and their ways of making people laugh have cornered a large part of the humor biz, kind of like guys with plaid coats predominate on used car lots or women with owl-shaped glasses who call everyone "hon" refill coffee at truck stops. Which isn't to say there aren't funny Episcopalians or Methodists or Buddhists (name 10?), but, without bringing out the Ginsu knife, what exactly is it about Jewish humor?
I'm no theorist but think it has something to do with combining a certain kind of joy with a certain kind of despair that results in a certain kind of recognition which, when properly practiced, gets you into the Brentwood Country Club. It's mean and it's friendly. It's fantastic and it's real. The butt of the joke is often the joker. And (thank you Dr. Freud) it's generously basted with Anxiety. And, at this point, it must be emphasized that being a member of the "tribe" does not automatically confer skills in the realm of laughter. For proof, just catch the opening three minutes of the Synagogue president's high holiday fund-raising spiel or Uncle Herb's toast at Josh's Bar Mitzvah.
I present a joke I just came across that I think pretty perfectly captures the vibe. (For best effect, assume a slightly world-weary tone.): A minister, a priest, and a rabbi are having a beer together (that is not the joke) and the minister asks, "Guys, what do you want your congregation to say when they look at you in the coffin?" The minister says, "I want them to say, he was a pillar of the community." The priest says, "I want them to say, he was an example of charity and scholarship." And the rabbi says, "Look, he moved!"
I rest my case. But at this point, I have to make clear that I'm not a lawyer, I'm a cartoonist (sorry, mom!).
Ken Krimstein is a cartoonist, humorist and the author of "Kvetch as Kvetch Can," a collection of Jewish cartoons.

The Best Sports Columns of 2007
If you're looking for this morning's Fix about Week 17 in the NFL, it's here. Also, check out the Fix's favorite columns from December.
The average Daily Fix contains a dozen links to sports columns from around the Web, which over a year adds up to some 3,000 sports stories we thought were worthy of a look. Some columns, though, stuck with us weeks and even months later. For the fourth-straight year, we've decided to end the year by putting our heads together and picking 10 of the columns we found most memorable.
Here they are, presented in alphabetical order. (Pretty good year for ESPN!) We'll do it again next year; meantime, let us know how we did. And, of course, if you've found a good column or have something to say, drop us a line at email@example.com.
• Eric Adelson, ESPN
Muck City, Fla., is renowned as a breeding ground for some of the fastest kids in the country. But why? What is it about a town that barely rates a name, tucked in among the sugarcane fields alongside Lake Okeechobee, that gives young men winged heels? Eric Adelson's tale is a whatdunit that combines well-told history, careful reporting and keen observations for a mesmerizing portrait of a place and a way of life.
• Simon Barnes, Times of London
To the American fan, it's a strange premise for a sports column: cheering the absence of violence at a memorable match. But given the historical import of this England-Ireland rugby match, and the "furniture of hate" attending the occasion, Mr. Barnes's celebratory tone was appropriate. History and "Ulysses" references help Mr. Barnes set the backdrop for the match and help us all celebrate along with the 81,000 people at Croke Park who came not to hate, but instead to appreciate a great contest.
• Ed Hinton, The Orlando Sentinel
The death of Bill France Jr. deprived NASCAR of the man who transformed a backwoods racing league into a gigantic business. Mr. Hinton's look back at the life of the man he always called Billy is a neatly written crash course in racing history and a pocket biography. And it ends with a great bit of storytelling about the day several racing legends got put in their places.
• Jeff Jacobs, The Hartford Courant
Calvin Borel and Jeff Jacobs were made for each other: the one a Cajun jockey with a story that took him from the bush tracks of Louisiana to victory at Churchill Downs (and a state dinner at the White House), the other a storyteller with an ear for people, a sense of drama and a deft touch with anecdote and analysis. The Fix loves stories that bring sports figures to life, stories that capture the gleeful, heart-might-burst rush of unexpected glory, and stories that make you feel like an expert about a sport you barely know. Getting all three in one package? The Fix really loves that.
• Bruce Jenkins, San Francisco Chronicle
On a warm September night at the U.S. Open, 20-year-old Novak Djokovic had just reached his third-straight Grand Slam semifinal — but he'd become even more of a fan favorite, winning over the New York crowd with impromptu imitations of Rafael Nadal and Maria Sharapova. Many writers would have tucked in a mention of the comedy routine at the end of a paint-by-numbers match report. But Mr. Jenkins has an eye for detail, and knew that he had seen "a new standard for whimsy among professional athletes." On deadline, he explained why Mr. Djokovic's performance carried every bit as much as risk as an attempt at a difficult cross-court winner — and described the proceedings so vividly that if you'd missed it, you'd swear otherwise.
• Tim Marchman, New York Sun
Mr. Marchman's expert baseball analysis, apparent allergy to lazy conventional wisdom, acidic wit and unexpected, artful turns of phrase made him a Fix favorite this year, and one of the best sportswriters in a city that already had a crowded field. His portrait of Tony Gwynn pulls off the tough trick of making you think differently about a player you thought you already knew — Gwynn gets considerable credit as a hitter, but Mr. Marchman shows he deserves even more.
• Ian O'Connor, Bergen Record
Elegy is a hard thing to pull off in sportswriting — it's all too easy to get crabby or mawkish, losing the reader along the way. Mr. O'Connor's account of Phil Simms' epic performance in Super Bowl XXI avoids both traps, expertly retelling a familiar story to Giants fans and ending with the kind of killer quote that leaves a writer smiling even as he scribbles it in his notebook. It's a great wrap-up, and a perfect evocation of what's lost and what will endure.
Addendum: Link died — see it here.
• Jeff Pearlman, ESPN
Mr. Pearlman's look at the Long Island Ducks is the opposite of elegiac. It's an examination of how star athletes succeed because they can will themselves to ignore reality, only to wind up last to know what everyone else can see — that their time has passed. None of the Ducks profiled by Mr. Pearlman thinks he belongs on an independent-league team because, as Mr. Pearlman puts it, "in the mind of the professional baseball player, acceptance of inadequacy is acceptance of death." Sounds like a grim read, but it isn't — because the Ducks are having too much fun just playing ball to realize the call they're waiting for isn't coming.
• Wright Thompson, ESPN
The Saints' playoff run had just ended one game short of the Super Bowl. Their New Orleans fans, a year and a half after Katrina, wanted to say thanks for helping them endure life in their storm-wrecked city. And so hundreds poured onto the roads and headed to the airport to greet their team upon its return from Chicago. They even stayed through a flight delay. When you reach the point where the players and coaches are surrounded by their fans … well, that's when Mr. Thompson's column might become tough to see through the tears.
• Mike Wise, Washington Post
Mr. Wise's take on Golden State Warriors coach Don Nelson should be a blueprint for the sports portrait, by turns loose and goofy, steely and serious, but always confidently told and richly entertaining.

This article was corrected | View correction
—To determine whether a nutritional supplement of selenium will decrease the incidence of cancer.
—A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled cancer prevention trial.
—Seven dermatology clinics in the eastern United States.
—A total of 1312 patients (mean age, 63 years; range, 18-80 years) with a history of basal cell or squamous cell carcinomas of the skin were randomized from 1983 through 1991. Patients were treated for a mean (SD) of 4.5 (2.8) years and had a total follow-up of 6.4 (2.0) years.
—Oral administration of 200 μg of selenium per day or placebo.
Main Outcome Measures.
—The primary end points for the trial were the incidences of basal and squamous cell carcinomas of the skin. The secondary end points, established in 1990, were all-cause mortality and total cancer mortality, total cancer incidence, and the incidences of lung, prostate, and colorectal cancers.
—After a total follow-up of 8271 person-years, selenium treatment did not significantly affect the incidence of basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer. There were 377 new cases of basal cell skin cancer among patients in the selenium group and 350 cases among the control group (relative risk [RR], 1.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95-1.28), and 218 new squamous cell skin cancers in the selenium group and 190 cases among the controls (RR, 1.14; 95% CI, 0.93-1.39). Analysis of secondary end points revealed that, compared with controls, patients treated with selenium had a nonsignificant reduction in all-cause mortality (108 deaths in the selenium group and 129 deaths in the control group [RR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.63-1.08]) and significant reductions in total cancer mortality (29 deaths in the selenium treatment group and 57 deaths in controls [RR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.31-0.80]), total cancer incidence (77 cancers in the selenium group and 119 in controls [RR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.47-0.85]), and incidences of lung, colorectal, and prostate cancers. Primarily because of the apparent reductions in total cancer mortality and total cancer incidence in the selenium group, the blinded phase of the trial was stopped early. No cases of selenium toxicity occurred.
—Selenium treatment did not protect against development of basal or squamous cell carcinomas of the skin. However, results from secondary end-point analyses support the hypothesis that supplemental selenium may reduce the incidence of, and mortality from, carcinomas of several sites. These effects of selenium require confirmation in an independent trial of appropriate design before new public health recommendations regarding selenium supplementation can be made.

Senators vs. Penguins: Game Five
4:40 PM: Those of you wanting great stuff from Sens TV needn't look any further. We have Gord Wilson's Game Preview and plenty of other clips from Coach MacLean and the players.
Gord Wilson's Game Preview
Coach MacLean
Daniel Alfredsson
Jared Cowen
Cory Conacher
4:20 PM: Jared Cowen shares his thoughts on what the Sens need to improve, the mood of the room and what has sustained them to this point in the year.
On what the team needs to improve:
I think it goes without saying that we need to take less penalties, uncalled for penalties when they're not even in our zone. There's penalties you can kill off where you just playing the puck, things happen, but there's unnecessary penalties where we're giving slashes or plays away from the puck. The penalty kill itself we just have to bear down and know what we're out there to do and do our job.On the danger of the Pens PP:
Everyone out there is a shooter for them, everyone is a good passer. Usually in the regular season there's only certain guys you deem as 'dangerous' but everyone out there for them is that kind of player.On the mood of the dressing room:
So far it's focused, everyone knows what needs to get done. Everyone feels good about our team and our chances and our ability to come back and play and do well compared to last game. Nobody is worried but we know there's a lot of urgency.On what has brought them this far:
It's our leadership, our depth in our organization, lots of guys have played well and filled roles we didn't think we could fill. The older guys on the team have really shown the way and a couple of younger guys as well. I don't think anything will change now, we'll just keep on doing what we've been doing the whole year.3:50 PM: Jason Spezza spoke about being reunited with Milan Michalek and Daniel Alfredsson as well as the focus of the team going into tonight.
On playing with Michalek and Alfredsson:
It's a bit of mix and match and try to different combinations to see what helps us win. Being on the road, we'll get different matchups and hopefully by putting the three of us together we can find some old chemistry and have a good night.On the mood of the room:
Guys are excited for the challenge ahead of us. We know they're going to try and close us out tonight and we're going to try and give them our best game of the series. We know it's a good opportunity for us to play in a big game and we have our backs against the wall and we have to play our best hockey of the year.1:50 PM: Here is tonight's projected lineup based on morning line rushes. No confirmed lineup will be available until game time.
Michalek - Spezza - Alfredsson
Greening - Turris - Condra
Smith - Zibanejad - Silfverberg
Kassian/Conacher - Pageau - Neil
Methot - Karlsson
Cowen - Gonchar
Phillips - Benoit
1:30 PM: Craig Anderson weighs in on how the Sens can bounce back from Game 4.
On the team going forward:
We all have to respond, there's no individual that takes the blame here. It's a collective effort and it's a team effort. When the team plays well everyone has success and when the team doesn't play well obviously things don't look so good.On the importance of the response:
It's not what happens to you, it's what you do after, it's how you respond. For us, we need to respond and that's a collective effort. It's a team game and the better you play as a team the better result you usually have.On starting well:
We have to focus on doing things right. It starts with the first shift, the first minute of the game and we have to play like that, like we want to, for the whole game. As you've seen in this series when we don't play well for five or six minutes in a row the puck ends up in the net a few times. It's really a focus thing. We have to focus on playing well and playing well every shift.On if the team can elevate its game:
We all have to elevate our level and that's kind of where things are. You have to continue to get better. If we continue to get better I'm sure we'll be happy with the result.On the current level of play:
We haven't played very well. You don't give up seven goals by playing well, I'll tell you that right now. I think we have to get back to what gives us success and that's hardnosed hockey, taking away space and figuring out how to win games 2-0 or 2-1. That's how we've had success all year and that's our blueprint for winning.On using the Game 3 win as a blueprint:
We need to repeat that. We need to find a way to get back to giving ourselves an opportunity to win the game and that's all you can really ask. In order to do that you have to play hard, you have to play as a team, you have to play together and you have to limit the number of mistakes you make.11:30 AM: The Sens are on the ice in Pittsburgh...
10:30 AM: The last time the Sens played the Pens in a Game 5 in Pittsburgh...
10:00 AM: The most unfortunate part of the Sens going on the road? Lyndon Slewidge can't travel with the team to do the national anthems. Here's his rendition of O Canada from Game 4.
Warning: Will cause bodily chills and goosebumps.
9:30 AM: It's Game 5 Game Day in Pittsburgh and your Senators are awaiting the start of the fifth game of their series with the Penguins tonight with puck drop scheduled for 7:30 pm. The Sens are looking to prolong the series after a tough Game 4 loss in Ottawa. Paul MacLean said the Sens are "coming to play" and we'll find out what that entails soon enough.
The Sens will hit the ice at 11:00 am for their morning skate at CONSOL Energy Center. I'll have plenty of updates to follow including, but not limited to, lineup changes, players thoughts on tonight's game, Sens TV updates, Instagram goodness and more.
Stay tuned!

A week went by and no service. I called again and was told the service would be started up again. Another week went by with no service and I called T-Mobile again and this time I was told that since they had sent the bill for the two months of back service to a collection agency they could not reinstate my service.
Then about a month later they sent me a bill for $200 claiming I had terminated my contract with them before a two year period so I owed them the $200 punishment. I explained to them I had been with T-Mobile for over 3 years and did not renew my contract but only paid month to month and I never terminated my service but asked for my service to be reinstated which they originally told me they would do. So I did not owe them $200.
They turned the bill over to Pinnacle Financial Group which has done everything they could to call me at all hours of the day and night to demand payment. I have told them on at least 10 different occasions not to call me as I do not owe T-Mobile anything and gave them the full explaination as stated above. They continue to harrass me.

Bud Says Consumer Comments Below
Anyone receiving court papers with affidavits by Sue Argentieri are warned her affidavits may be false, bogus, full of hearsay and perjury. Sue claims to have knowledge on accounts by stating she has care, custody and control of all records concerning account of...
Sue's a LIAR!
She's employed by LVNV Funding - they acquired the account after charge off. Her statements are hearsay and blatantly false, yet they plead as true in court filings. This is just another example of lying and using the courts to extort money from consumers. Sue Argentieri should face criminal prosecution for lying on court papers.
To see how these organizations are structured go to:
All of these bottom-feeders started from the same mold, Sherman/Alegis out of Houston was originally started by Frank S. Russo, Tony M. Ettinger, Thomas E. Upton, Samuel Bergman and Richard Dunn all of Houston, Texas. They purchased old debts for pennies, and then set up collection agencies to collect on them at inflated prices.
As with most bottom-feeders, they have had to resort to placing all accounts on consumer credit reports, inflate the balances and demand settlements. Alegis became Sherman, which became LVNV and now Resurgent and Ventus are all in the bottom-feeder business. They do file lawsuits, most with bogus affidavits and pleadings. They use under-educated employees such as Allison Moon of Greenville, SC to sign affidavits where she lies about the authenticity of accounts (see Allison Moon is a Liar' below) in their attempts to give credibility to their bogus pleadings. The problem with liars like Allison B. Moon is she makes statements known to be false. Her swearing is nothing more than hearsay and an attempt to defraud consumers out of monies they may not legally owe, not to mention the fraud she and her organizations bring into the courts. Consumers dealing with these bogus filings and affidavits are urged to challenge their validity in order to avoid becoming another victim to their scam and being ripped off.
You are further urged to go after these bottom-feeders for the lies they place on your credit reports. Under provisions of the federal law, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) any item placed upon your credit bureau reports MUST be accurate.' In my experience, I doubt anything placed by a bottom-feeder could ever meet the legitimacy of that test. Consumers are urged to dispute any LVNV, Sherman, Alegis, Resurgent, Ventus account with the credit bureaus and make demand upon the organizations and their owners to abide by the law. They receive a fat check to lie about things that cause you misery, higher interest rates, credit denials and in most cases, don't have the required documentation that would meet the definition of accurate.' All of these owners, board members, attorneys and employees can and should be held strictly responsible when that information does NOT meet the legal definition, as stated by law.
The reason the Allison B. Moons of this industry are getting away with this is because no one is going after her. That can easily change if enough consumers decide they are fed up at being taken advantage of and strike back at these bogus filings, pleadings and credit bureau placements. There are consumer law professionals at NACA who may be able to assist you if your rights are being violated, go to: www.naca.net tell them Bud Hibbs sent you.
We need to heed the lessons of ENRON and make sure that Allison B. Moon is held accountable when she breaks the law.
CAUTION: I recommend you NEVER disclose your bank account or credit card information to a debt collector, as you risk them emptying your account, or maxing out your credit card. If you feel they are reporting on your credit bureau files in error or need assistance in dealing with them, email the details w/your location. Assistance and referral to a consumer legal specialist may be available

Make a cheery cat toy that sends tweets, and let your cat join the millions of other Twitter-critters who update the world regularly with their activities.
About 2 months ago, after years of begging and pleading from my family, I reluctantly agreed to get another cat from the local shelter. We already have a menagerie of beasts that share our home, but for some reason they felt we needed another.
I admit, I do like our new addition to the family. Chester is a spunky little stray who's always looking for fun. Even if it means knocking a few things off my desk as I write this article. The only problem is, when my wife goes in to work, she misses her new cat and always wants to know his whereabouts.
She used to ask me for updates, but after a while I realized that I needed to make something that would take me out of the loop, and let the cat communicate with my wife directly via twitter.com. I needed a Twittering cat toy. And that's how Kitty Twitty came to fruition, after some basic soldering and crafting with just a few parts.
This is really easy. Simply plug in the power supply and Ethernet cable, and flip the switch. The green power LED should come on, and in a few seconds, the blue network status LED, too. The code tweets an "Up and Running" message to let you know everything is OK. You can plug a USB cable into the Arduino and listen in on the serial port for some debugging.
Every time the wire makes a connection, you'll see a new tweet! That's it!
You can modify this project to make almost anything send a tweet. It's a cat toy, but there's no reason it can't be converted into a Twittering dog toy, or even a Twittering bird perch. Just substitute a different kind of switch sensor for the bird-on-a-wire. Make a Twittering burglar alarm? Easy! Doggie door? Sure! Twittering fish? Now that's a challenge!
Also, you can add additional switches or sensors, connect them to as-yet-unused pins on the Arduino, and write some code to handle them. Think about adding a servo to make some random rumbles, or a speaker to simulate a bird. That should keep your cat's interest!
This project is still evolving, and I need to add more parts and experiment with them before I settle on the final Twittering toy. By the time you read this, I hope to have modifications that check whether your cat is sleeping or needs food, via pressure-sensitive piezos under its bed and food bowl. I also plan to add a speaker or small motor to get the cat's attention. See http://makezine.com/22/kittytwitty to learn more about these modifications.

Hello I just tried to instal WP Super Cache and I am getting a weird warning message:
Warning! WP Super Cache caching broken! The script advanced-cache.php could not load wp-cache-phase1.php.
Please edit /home/[our-site-folder]/public_html/[wp-content-folder-renamed]/advanced-cache.php and make sure the path to /home/[our-site-folder]/public_html/[wp-content-folder-renamed]/plugins/wp-super-cache/wp-cache-phase1.php is correct.
The problem is, I've gone into this file, as instructed, and there isn't really a "path" anywhere.
I just see the file name of "wp-cache-phase1.php" and try to change that to a full path, but that doesn't work.
I've tried deactivating and re-activating and that also didn't work.
I've tried looking online for answers and nothing seems to be solving this issue, that I could find.
Can you help?
Here is the code that is in /home/[our-site-folder]/public_html/[wp-content-folder-renamed]/advanced-cache.php:
function wpcache_broken_message() {
if ( false == strpos( $_SERVER[ 'REQUEST_URI' ], 'wp-admin' ) )

To avoid unexpected issues that might happen during weekends after each maintenance, we decide to change the maintenance schedule from Thursday to Tuesday.
If there is no emergent bugs to fix, maintenance will happen on Tuesday early morning.
And of course, maintenance will be announced in advance on forums, in-game broadcast and in-game mail as well :)

Christina Milian, The-Dream announce split
"The couple reached this decision in late 2009, but decided to keep the news private in efforts to protect their baby daughter, Violet. They ask for consideration and respect for their family moving forward," the rep added. The couple's split comes after new scandalous photos showing The-Dream frolicking in the Caribbean over the weekend with a woman who is not his wife surfaced.
According to Us, the other woman is the producer's assistant of about a year, Melissa Santiago. In one photo, The-Dream reportedly is not wearing his wedding band as he is being straddled by Santiago in the water. Milian, 28, and The-Dream, 29, eloped last September in Las Vegas and got married a second time in Rome in December.
