Next Year in Jerusalem
A visit to the Rafael Roth Learning Center and the permanent exhibition
This tour focuses on Jewish life and traditions and features select content in the permanent exhibition and the multimedia stories in the Rafael Roth Learning Center.
The Jewish calendar measures months in lunar cycles and years in solar cycles and determines the dates of the Jewish holidays.
Following the tour "Jewish Life, Jewish Traditions," the knowledge gained will be broadened interactively: the school pupils will plan a kosher menu for Samuel Joseph and learn about Pesach and the significant Jewish holiday, the Sabbath.
The Concept of Combined Tours
Combined tours include a tour of one section of the exhibition and a visit to the Rafael Roth Learning Center, which is the multimedia exhibition space at the Jewish Museum Berlin.
In-depth information on additional content at the Rafael Roth Learning Center can be found in the "Museum on Site" section of this website.

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
Artist-to-Artist: Conversations at MOCA from MOCA North Miami on Vimeo.
While headlines focus on Art Basel Miami Beach each December, a new mini-series will feature the local artists who have steadily built the region's reputation as an international art center.
Debuting Sunday in South Florida, the Artist-to-Artist series will feature artists like Daniel Arsham, whose sculptures and conceptual objects have been exhibited across Miami and were the reason he was selected as a set designer for famed choreographer Merce Cunningham. Naomi Fisher, co-founder of an alternative art space in Miami, Bas Fisher Invitational also will be featured.
Supported by Knight, the Artist-to-Artist series is a collaboration of the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami and WPBT-PBS2. It will highlight artists each Sunday in November, starting this Sunday.
The Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami's Executive Director and Chief Curator Bonnie Clearwater, who hosts the series, says the goal is to share insights on not only what it is like for artists to make and experience art, but also how their careers have impacted the art scene locally and across the rest of the world.
Clearwater tells the Miami New Times:
"So much of this history of Miami was this idea that Miami was receiving culture from outside over the last two decades...Through MOCA we're able to contribute to the world culture. We're not just receiving art and culture, we were actually generating and impacting how the world perceives art."
The first of the four, half-hour episodes, "Love, Literally," airs at 6 p.m. ET Nov. 4 on South Florida's Channel 2. It includes interviews with one of Britain's most celebrated artists Tracey Emin, the British artist and filmmaker Isaac Julien, and Jack Pierson, an American artist whose neon light installation, Paradise, is one of the most iconic works in the Museum Of Contemporary Art North Miami. It also features commentary by Knight Foundation's President and CEO, Alberto Ibargüen.
Each of the featured artists has played an essential role in the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami's history and the city's growing arts scene. The mini-series gives them the opportunity discuss their careers.
Since the mid-1990s, the museum has been a defining force in Miami's cultural evolution and presented over 150 exhibitions of contemporary art by both emerging and established artists.
The schedule of future episodes is listed below. Full biographies of the artists are also available online.

Member ABC is supported by a pin and bracket at C and by an inextensible cable of length L = 8.4 m that is attached at A and B and passes over a frictionless pulley at D. Assuming P = 800 N and ? = 20 degrees and neglecting the mass of ABC and the radius of the pulley, simplify the problem as much as possible analytically and, for 0 ? s ? 6 m, use MATLAB to:
(a) Calculate and plot the tension T in the cable as a function of s;
(b) Calculate and plot the magnitude of reactions Cx and Cy at hinge C as a function of s;
(c) Calculate and plot the magnitude of the reaction at hinge C as a function of s;
(d) Calculate the angle ? of the reaction at hinge C (with respect to +x-axis) as a function of s;
(e) Determine the maximum tension T-max and the corresponding value of s;
(f) Determine the (absolute) maximum reactions Cx & Cy and the corresponding values of s;
(g) Determine the (absolute) maximum reaction C and the corresponding value of s;
(h) If it exists, determine the value of s at which Cx = Cy and the corresponding value of Cy.
I'm really just stuck on the first one, part
(a), the most, but a response to the rest would be very helpful,
too. I've also attached a handwritten analysis of the problem on
paper with equilibrium reactions, but I do not know if I analyzed
the problem correctly. I labeled the angle adjacent to
? as ? and the rightmost
angle ?, both of which vary as a
function of0 ? s ? 6 m. First and foremost, I
guess, is my assumption of the reaction at C correct? I appreciate
any responses in advance; thank you!

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - A state worker will receive $500,000 to
settle a whistleblower lawsuit against the Kentucky Transportation
Sarah Missy McCray filed the suit in 2005 under the state's
Whistleblower Act, claiming former Transportation Secretary William
Nighbert had threatened her. McCray claimed in the lawsuit that she
was a victim of retaliation because she cooperated with an attorney
general's investigation into the hiring practices of Gov. Ernie
Fletcher's Republican administration.
Gov. Steve Beshear, a Democrat, said he is pleased with the
"I appreciate how difficult this has been for Ms. McCray and
applaud her pursuit of justice," Beshear said. "It's no secret
that many state employees were mistreated over the past four
The Fletcher administration was marred by scandal that involved
the hiring and firing of hourly employees based on political
considerations. Such activities are illegal under Kentucky law.
"This case is one of the most egregious examples of how many
state workers came to work each day fearing for their jobs,"
Beshear said in a statement. "It left us with the task of cleaning
up the mess created by the previous administration."
Telephone calls to Fletcher's office at Pikeville Medical Center
went unanswered on Wednesday.
Under the settlement, McCray was also reassigned to the
Personnel Cabinet.
A special grand jury returned 29 indictments in the hiring
investigation, which ran for much of Fletcher's term from 2003
through 2007. Fletcher was among the people named in the
indictments. The charges against Fletcher were later dropped in a
negotiated agreement with prosecutors. He pardoned everyone else
charged in the case, including Nighbert.
The indictment against Nighbert alleged that he blocked McCray
from getting a bonus because she had testified to the special grand
The indictment also alleged that Nighbert told McCray "that if
it were 20 years ago, 'I probably would have come back there and
socked you in the mouth."' Nighbert denied making that statement
or threatening McCray.
Transportation Cabinet spokesman Chuck Wolfe said McCray stood
to win a much larger settlement if the case, scheduled for next
month, had been decided by a jury.
Nighbert disagreed.
"I was personally willing to go there and testify to what had
happened," he said Wednesday. "I would have been surprised if she
would have gotten anything at all when the whole story was told."

Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia
- Viral hemorrhagic septicemia (VHS) is a severe disease of freshwater and marine fish.
- It can affect a number of recreational and sport fish species, such as muskellunge, small mouth bass, and yellow perch as well as a number of baitfish and commercial fish.
- There are four genetically different types of VHS. Genotypes I, II, and III are mainly found in Europe and Asia and cause severe disease in rainbow trout. Genotype IV (called the North American strain) has been found in wild fish along the East and West coasts of North America (IVa), and more recently in the Great Lakes watershed (IVb).
- The IVb strain was first identified in Lake Ontario in 2005. This was the first report of VHS in freshwater in North America. A number of new species of fish have been found to be affected.
- As of December 2008, VHS has been reported in dead or diseased wild fish in Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, Lake Huron, and Lake Michigan, the St. Lawrence River, and a number of inland lakes (in Michigan, New York, Wisconsin and Ohio).
- To date, VHS has not been found in aquaculture facilities in the Great Lakes region.
- VHS does not affect humans.

Both leave you burned and wondering what the hell just happened.
The economy's still tanking, the unemployment rate is at an all time high, and inflation is going through the roof. Now, to add fuel to the fire, people all around me are dying. Especially unsettling are the ones my age that are dropping dead from undiagnosed heart disease. This leaves me paranoid every time I so much as burp after gulping a Pepsi.
Besides, I can't afford to die just yet. There are still six months left in which to make 2009 my Best Year Ever. It has to be.
My horoscope said so.
Yeah, I scan my horoscope every Sunday, but with my usual horoscope attitude: If it's bad, I ignore it and if it's good, I believe it. Fair enough, dontcha think?
So here's the thing - every single Aquarian horoscope in 2008 predicted things like:
- "...if you ever wanted to make changes in your life, this is the time."
- "...your already well-known communication skills will be showcased..."
- "...the best year of the rest of your life takes off..."
- "...something wonderful is going to happen, but you don't know what."
- "...Better believe that you'll be in a very difference place come 2010."
- "...the next 10 months are a cosmic gift."
But I remain hopeful that 2009 will redeem itself. This might explain why one friend always refers to me as Pollyanna. I'm an eternal optimist, she says, always seeing the good in things. I wish that were so, but know better. I'm really a closet pessimist who is always expecting the worst, like a burp turning into a heart attack.
Still, I can hope that the second half of 2009 holds something bright and happy. After all, "the new moon is shedding a light of opportunity...."
My horoscope said so.

This spicy, clear, low-fat soup is adapted from traditional Thai cooking techniques. This particular version is anything but wimpy. Heat lovers should feel free to increase the amount of ginger or the amount and type of peppers used.
• 3 lemongrass stalks, trimmed• 2 bunches scallions• 6 cups water, or mushroom or other stock• 1/2 to 1 cup cooked black, white, or kidney beans• 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice• 1 1/2 tablespoons tamari soy sauce• 1 1/4-inch chunk of fresh gingerroot, peeled and grated• 2 or 3 fresh serrano chiles, seeded and cut into rings• 2 tablespoons minced jalapeños• 1 to 2 garlic cloves, crushed• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black or white pepper• 1 tablespoon brown sugar• 3 tablespoons fresh chopped broadleaf or poreleaf, or 3 teaspoons dried
1. Cut the lemongrass stalks into the largest size that will fit into the pot. Wrap in a clean cloth and roll with a rolling pin to break down the fibers. Chop the white part of the scallions into small rings; chop the green parts and reserve for garnish.she
2. Combine all but the last two ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove the lemongrass stalks. Stir in the sweetener and the poreleaf. Taste; the soup should be strongly pungent, sour, and appropriately salty. Adjust the flavor as required with additional lime juice, sweetener, or tamari.

Reading about some insane shit that Michele Bachmann has said just reminded me about what a neuropsychologist said about me.
In a very long and detailed report, he basically summed me up as "Shy, manic depressed, suffers from ADHD, and while she says she's attracted to women, she isn't."
Sure, I'm not attracted to women in a normal way. I love women's bodies, I want to caress their breasts, to hold them tight against me, to kiss them tenderly, and to fuck them hard with my dick.
... wait a minute...
Yeah, I secretly want to bone women. That's how I am attracted to them. As for men, I want to bone them too, but I love the fact that my boyfriend can take me in a heterosexual manner. It's a weird feeling. I love being a woman, so I'm not transexual. I might be a transvestite though. Which is alright by Mick because I get to keep my vagina. And that's alright by me too. Even though my dream self keeps giving me dicks, I actually like being a woman.
And I like being in a heterosexual relationship with my man.
But sometimes I am reminded that I'm bisexual.
Now, I know that this blog isn't all about me. So I'm going to stop talking about me and talk about other people.
Like this neuro doctor, who spent 10 minutes talking with me, then shoved me in a small room to do a series of tests, and then decided he knew all about me (they were pretty good tests though.), there are multiple others who believe that being gay isn't the fault of the person.
But it is a fault and has a cure.
What is the cure you might ask? Why it's simple. Just pray the gay away.
You simply join a ministry, abstain from sex, and if you're a tranny you throw away the clothes that you feel good about wearing but isn't considered normal for the gender you were born in. Then you go to church, confess every sin, pray every day, read the bible, get a good job, date a few members of the opposite sex, and then just hate yourself because you're still sexually attracted to members of the same sex.
This has actually led to suicides.
Now, I'm not saying that being a Christian means that you have to be straight as an arrow. After all, I'm bisexual. In fact, I have met ministers and members of churches who believed that the bible doesn't come out and state that being gay is sinful. My boyfriend may speak differently, but if you take all of the bible and follow every single law to the letter, then my mother would still be married and not allowed to speak in church except through her husband, and I would be stoned to death at the door of my parents.
The bible is open to interpretation. And my interpretation is that all genders are equal, and all peoples of different faiths, cultures, and sexual orientation should be free to speak, free to live, free to worship (or not worship), free to learn, and, most importantly, free to love.
America wasn't founded on Christian beliefs, nor is it run on them like other countries are. America wasn't founded on hate or prejudice against others (even if some of the founding fathers were bigots, sexist, and racist... okay, all of them). And America wasn't born to hate.
But why are so many people saying that God should always stay in the pledge, as it always has; that all men, be they atheist, Muslim, Christian, or Buddhist should swear on the bible; that homosexuals should be killed or at the least they shouldn't be encouraged by marriage?
Well, let me tell you something.
The pledge of allegiance never contained the word "Under God" until the mid 1900s.
People swear on the bible because it is sacred to the individual, but for someone who doesn't believe in it, swearing on it is about as effective as swearing on a piece of toilet paper.
And one last thing.
Heterosexuals are the ones who have gay babies. ;p

Through to quarters in four
Roger has made it through the first week Down Under and will play the quarter finals next week thanks to a 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 victory over Tommy Robredo.
"It was a tough match and I'm really happy to be in the next round," Roger commented. "I'm sweating bullets out here so I'm really delighted to win this match."
Once again, Roger started perfectly, hitting ace after ace and not conceding a single point on his serve in the first set. But the second proved to be a rough ride as he struggled with his return and couldn't get the balls into play like he wanted to. But he went on to regain control in the third and fourth set, taking each one thanks to early breaks.
With the victory, Roger has reached the quarter-finals for 27 consecutive majors since his third-round exit at the 2004 French Open, equaling Connors Open era record! Of his 26 previous quarter-final appearances, he has converted 24 into semifinals, gone on to reach 20 finals and won 14 of them.
In the quarter-final, he will either meet Andy Roddick (ATP 8) or his Swiss Olympic teammate Stanislas Warwinka (ATP 19) on Tuesday.
Partita fantastica!!!! Go Roger go!!!!!
See you win again soon.

Our Work
NAACP Economic Department Staff preparing for the Opportunity and Diversity Report Card launch in Atlanta, GA.
The Racial Wealth Divide
Lack of wealth is one of the greatest detriments to socio-economic well being. The concentration of wealth in fewer and fewer hands has become an important subject of national debate, however the crisis of the racial wealth divide has still yet to be adequately discussed. With the onset of this most recent Great Recession, the racial wealth divide in America is at its highest level in recent economic history. From 2005 to 2009, median wealth plummeted by 66% among Hispanic households, 53% among black households and 31% for Asian households compared to 16% among white households. People of Color's large loss of wealth is a consequence of the little wealth and or economic insecurity these communities had before the great recession relative to white Americans. Those with greater wealth and multi-generational economic security have best been able to diversify their assets into stock, bonds, etc in addition to homeownership. Those with little wealth or newly acquired wealth are more likely to solely invest in homeownership and some basic retirement plans; so, the sharp decline in the value of homes hurts disproportionately those with limited amounts of wealth. Even more problematic, about a third of black (35%) and Hispanic (31%) households had zero or negative net worth, compared with 15% of white households.These findings underscore the urgency for progressive policies and wealth building practices to address the racial wealth divide as it significantly affects the economic future of a nation that is rapidly becoming majority minority.
Looking at the state of economic inequality today, the NAACP Economic Department is committed to meeting these challenges through capacity building and training of our units at conferences, building strong alliances with other organizations, advancing economic education that provide a racial economic analysis,strengthening economic resources for our constituents and ensuring they have access to the best financial information.
Economic Department Game Changer
Economic Sustainability
A chance to live the American Dream for all.
Every person will have an equal opportunity to achieve economic success, sustainability, and security.
Economic Department Goals
The NAACP Economic Department's objectives are to:
Empower local communities with the necessary education, resources and partnerships to develop sustainable economic models that advance diversity and equity.
- Ensure that government and industry are knowledgeable, and committed to bridging racial inequality particularly as it relates to employment, wealth, lending and business ownership.
- Grow a movement of concerned citizens and organization who work together to produce an inclusive and strong middle class economy for the 21st century.
Economic Department Program Areas
Economic Education
The NAACP Financial Freedom Campaign is based on the theory that organizing and community mobilization, improved access to quality products and services, and monitoring to ensure the absence of discrimination, results in improved financial security and economic solvency.
Diversity and Inclusion
The NAACP engages in advocacy efforts specifically targeting industries with the greatest potential to influence job creation and advancement (at multiple job classification levels) and wealth building (as measured by ownership, development, contracting, and supplier diversity) in African American communities, and other communities of color.
Fair Lending
The NAACP has developed nine banking principles concerning fairness and mortgage lending to encourage transparency and fairness in the processes associated with obtaining quality loans and improving the relationships between financial institutions and people of color and other historically disadvantaged borrowers.
Community Economic Development
The NAACP promotes racial equity in community economic development and strengthening the economic fabric of communities of color through supporting the creation and growth of small businesses, individual wealth building primarily through matched savings accounts, and community asset building.

Mother Teresa--My Personal Take
I've shared previously with our
American Catholic Radio
audience my own experience of seeing Mother Teresa of Calcutta in person. She visited my hometown, Cincinnati, on June 7, 1981, to help our Franciscan family celebrate the 800th anniversary of the birth of St. Francis of Assisi. I didn't get to meet her personally, but helped provide music for the Mass she attended. I felt blessed just to be contributing to her visit and her prayer with us.
That day remains a powerful memory for those of us who were there. Little did we know that this saintly woman had, for many years, walked a path of inner darkness.
Several years ago, Father Brian Kolodiejchuk, promoting her cause for sainthood, edited a book called
Mother Teresa: Come Be My Light.
He recalls the years she endured a "dark nights of the soul," despite her great love for God and certain that God had called her to special work with the poor.
Father Kolodiejchuk says that "the paradoxical and totally unsuspected cost of her mission was that she herself would live in 'terrible darkness.'" She wrote her spiritual director in 1961, of "this terrible sense of loss—this untold darkness—this loneliness—this continual longing for God—which gives me that pain deep down in my heart….The place of God in my soul is blank."
Mother Teresa's appeal to me today—beyond all of the good work she did—was the fact that she never gave up her longing, her search for God, even in the "terrible darkness." It's not perfection in what we do that makes us saints, but allowing God to work with who and what we are.
Father Greg Friedman, O.F.M.

Leonard Allen Marshall Jr. (born October 22, 1961) is a former American football defensive lineman who played twelve seasons in the National Football League (NFL). Marshall played defensive end for the New York Giants for ten seasons, then played a season each as a defensive tackle for the New York Jets and Washington Redskins.
Early Life
Marshall was born in Franklin, Louisiana. He was the oldest of seven children, whose father, Leonard Marshall Sr., was a foreman at a shipyard. Initially, Marshall's father did not like the idea of his son playing football, as he thought it was "a stupid game" that would prevent his son from doing more productive things. Later in his life however, Marshall Sr. expressed happiness over his son's success, and even rooted against his beloved Dallas Cowboys when his son's Giants teams played them.
College Career
Marshall majored in Business Management at LSU. He chose the school over the University of Alabama and its Hall of Fame coach Bear Bryant, because of the school's academic reputation and because it allowed him to stay close to home. Marshall played a crucial role in LSU's 1982 victory over Alabama, making several key tackles and prompting Bryant to state his regret in a post-game press conference for his inability to recruit Marshall. The team finished 8–3–1 and narrowly lost, 21–20, to the University of Nebraska in the Orange Bowl. He was named the team's defensive Most Valuable Player for his performance in the 1982 season.
Professional Career
Marshall was selected with the 37th overall selection (the fourth defensive lineman taken) in the 1983 NFL Draft. At the time Los Angeles Raiders managing general partner Al Davis described him as the steal of the draft.
In 1985 Marshall emerged as a pass rusher and went on to record 15.5 sacks which led to him being named NFL defensive lineman of the year. He went on to win the title again the following year.
Marshall is probably best known for his hit that knocked Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana out of that game. In the fourth quarter he hit Montana so hard that he suffered a bruised sternum, bruised stomach, cracked ribs, and a broken hand. In 2007, the hit was ranked as the third most "devastating hit" in NFL history by Fox Sports Net,[18] and the third most "devastating hit" in sports history by The Best Damn Sports Show Period.
Marshall was part of two Superbowl winning teams while with the Giants beting the Broncos in Superbowl XXI and beating the Bills in Superbowl XXV
Marshall was selected to three Pro Bowls, and finished his career with 83.5 sacks in the regular season, and twelve in the postseason. His total of 79.5 as a Giant ranks him fifth in team history. He was also an All Pro selection two times in his career.
Post NFL
Since his NFL career ended Marshall has hosted the annual Leonard Marshall Football Academy Camp which trains football players aged 8–18. The camp uses an extensive list of current and former NFL Pro Bowlers, to help teach the fundamentals of football in a non-contact setting. It is organized each June in south Florida. The camp also offers scholarships annually to 50 underprivileged youths who qualified through the Marvin Jones Foundation.
Marshall hosted a radio show on WFAN entitled the Leonard Marshall Show which was recorded in Hollywood, Florida near Marshall's former residence in Boca Raton, Florida. He also appeared on radio during his five-year stint on The Howard Stern Show where he co-hosted NY Football (CBS). Marshall is a noted philanthropist who has received several awards in recognition of his charitable work.

EXPLORING NATURE WITH JERRY HALL: Oak worms: also known as caterpillars
Sun, 05/18/2014 - 12:00pm Sanmarcos1
You may have recently encountered pesky little gray and green worms hanging on thin silk-like threads from area oak trees. They are not technically worms and the thread is definitely not silk, but the little crawlers are a regular spring thing around here. And while too many of them can be a nuisance, like most other things in nature, they do provide a positive contribution.

Although stem cells are subject to niche control, evidence is emerging that they also contribute to generating the niche through their offspring. Using the hair follicle as a model, Hsu at al. demonstrate that the transient-amplifying cells, downstream of stem cells and well-known cell producers, signal back to stem cells to maintain long-term regenerative capacity.

Google Removes Tags Option for Boost
Google has been offering businesses the opportunity to let their places page stand out from the crowd by offering them a little yellow tags for a monthly fee of only $25 that would link to videos, coupons menu items or websites.
Google sent an email to merchants using the service notifying them that it will be shut down on April 29th. 2011
While it's true that Local is now under senior VP Jeff Huber, there is probably a simpler explanation for why it is getting sun setted. Tags was an experiment which led to a similar local advertising product called Boost which appears do be doing much better, judging by how much it is now appearing in search results. Boost ads are all of those blue-colored pushpins on Google Maps and in paid search results. Rather than linking to a website, an offer, or a menu, Boost highlights some listings information from Google Places such as an adress or phone number.
Google's Boost can be found in your Dashboard
These are much more useful, especially in mobile search. Merchants don't want to drive clicks to their websites, they want to drive foot traffic to their stores or calls for their services. Also Boost is a very straightforward online advertising product. Merchants set a budget and pay per click, whereas Tags appear next to organic results to make them pop and were sold via a flat subscription. Boost is basically a refined version of Tags, and that's what Google is going with.
Boost pins
For local businesses that like tags, they can still buy them across a dozen competing non-Google sites through Yext Tags. A tag and customized message can be added to any local business listing on sites like Citysearch, Local.com, and SuperPages, Incidentally, Yext is planning on changing the name of this product to on Monday to PowerListings.
Yext CEO Howard Lerman notes that the decision is completely independent, and has more to do with the fact that local merchants understand what a listing is but may have no idea what is a tag. "What this all says is that non-discretionary local is all about the business listing," says Lerman—"whether its on a mobile device, a search engine, a reviews site, or in an app, listings are how consumers will find and select local businesses."

A popular exhibit at the University of Kansas Natural History Museum is empty and quiet after all the bees in an observation hive were killed by cold weather.
Bruce Scherting, director of exhibits at the museum, said the observation hive had a small opening for the bees. He said the recent cold, bitter winds apparently blew directly into the hive and killed the bees.
He said some bees die every the winter, but it's unusual to lose an entire colony.
The museum announced the bees' deaths on its Facebook page Friday, and said it is working to prevent a similar problem in the future.
6News Lawrence reported that the exhibit will now be taken apart and sterilized. The museum plans to bring in a new queen and colony in the spring.

Netflix Shares Tumble After-Hours Following Earnings Results
By Steven Russolillo and George Stahl
Netflix shares are tumbling in after-hours trading after subscriber figures in the company's quarterly results failed to impress investors.
Netflix reported a first-quarter loss of 8 cents a share on revenue of $870 million. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting a 27-cent per share quarterly loss and revenue of $867 million.
The company also forecast a net loss for the current quarter of 10 cents to 14 cents per share, narrower than analyst estimates.
Netflix reported 23.41 million domestic streaming subscriptions, which surpassed the 21.67 million it had at year-end. It also hit within its January guidance for 22.8 million to 23.6 million, but fell short of Citigroup's estimate of 24.17 million.
Netflix's numbers will likely raise concerns about whether it can get enough people to pay $8/month to watch generally older movies and TV shows whenever and wherever they want. It's been a hot topic as Netflix now splits the streaming and DVD businesses, loses access to attractive content from Sony and Disney, and faces increased competition from Amazon and Hulu.
"We see nothing new or particularly concerning this quarter to date in our member viewing, acquisition and retention," Netflix CEO Reed Hastings said in a statement. "All are healthy."
Netflix shares are down 14% at $88 in after-hours trading. Through Monday's close Netflix shares were up about 47% this year.
The company is one of the top performers in the S&P 500 in 2012. Yet the stock is well off its all-time high of $304.79 hit in July. It plunged as low as $62.37 at the end of November before rebounding a bit.
"As we grow, we are trying to balance prudence and ambition while keeping a strong focus on member satisfaction. We work hard every day to make our service even better," Hastings said. "Our rapid return to profitability, enabling further international expansion, is very gratifying."
More information should come from Netflix's conference call at 6:00 p.m. ET.

OAKLAND -- Bishop O'Dowd High girls basketball standout Oderah Chidom says she's headed to Duke.
The 6-foot-3 senior gave her oral commitment Sunday night on the heels of her weekend visit to the Durham, N.C. campus. She took official visits to each of her finalists -- Duke, Cal, UCLA and Washington -- before ultimately deciding Duke was the right fit.
"I loved the atmosphere and it's a good school academically," said Chidom, who is regarded as a top 10 national prospect. "I saw myself being there and being part of a team that could potentially win a national championship in the next couple of years."
Duke reached the Elite Eight last season and was recently picked as the preseason favorite to win the ACC title.
The Oakland native said she's more worried about the East Coast weather than being far away from home. Her mom works for an airline, which she says will make visits from her family and going back home easier.
Chidom, a long and athletic post player, is the No. 10 prospect in the 2013 class and the highest-rated senior in California this year by ESPN HoopGurlz.
She's also a member of the under-17 U.S. women's national team that won a gold medal at the FIBA World Championships in August.
"It was probably the best experience of my life," said Chidom, who averaged six points and six rebounds at the eight-game tournament. "I got to play with the best players in the country. It was kind of a warm up for college with the intensity and skill level."
The Blue Devils also recently received a commitment from Rebecca Greenwell, Chidom's friend and teammate on the national team.
Chidom is the fourth senior on the Bishop O'Dowd girls basketball team to commit to a Division I program. Forward K.C. Waters (Cal), center Breanna Brown (Virginia Tech) and point guard Ariell Bostick (San Diego State) also gave oral commitments in recent months.
Chidom averaged 13 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks last season, helping the Dragons win the Division III state title.

Polish Banks in Good Shape, Euro Crisis Poses Risks
WARSAW–Polish commercial banks are in a position to withstand the shock of a possible sharp economic slowdown, but the euro zone's crisis is posing risks for the sector and some banks in Poland would require fresh capital if the crisis deepened, the National Bank of Poland said in a report Tuesday.
"The ability of banks to absorb any potential losses remains high and the financial system is stable," the NBP said. "Nevertheless, the economic outlook over the forecast period has deteriorated and uncertainty as to the development of the economic situation abroad is high."
The NBP Monday cut growth forecasts for Poland to 2.9% in 2012, 2.1% in 2013 and 3.0% in 2014 amid the euro's crisis. The Polish economy grew 4.3% in 2011.
Slower growth hasn't yet led to a deterioration of the Polish banking sector's profitability or credit risk versus the record year of 2011, the NBP said. The sector's profit in 2011, at 15.7 billion zlotys ($4.6 billion), was the highest on Poland's record.
But commercial banks in Poland should brace for impact by distributing dividends cautiously, diversifying their funding sources, and reducing risk related to mortgage loans with a high loan-to-value ratio, the Polish central bank said.
The NBP's shock scenario assumes an economic contraction in Poland of 0.4% in 2013 and growth of 0.5% in 2014.
If this were to materialize, Polish banks holding 28% of the sector's assets would need 9.4 billion zlotys ($2.75 billion) in additional capital to keep core capital ratios above 9%. In the more optimistic base scenario laid out Monday, banks holding 8% of the sector's assets will need an extra 1.9 billion zlotys of capital. The sector's capital adequacy ratio is currently above 13%.
The banking sector's exposure to the troubled construction industry likely reduced banks' profits in the first half of this year, said Andrzej Jakubiak, head of the Polish financial markets regulator.
"The net result of the banking sector through May was 6.6 billion zlotys," compared to 6.2 billion zlotys a year earlier, he told a press conference Tuesday. "In my view, we'll have a worse result through June than a year earlier."
Still, the result in 2012 will likely be "very good," comparable to that of 2010, when Poland-based banks made 11.4 billion zlotys ($3.35 billion) in combined profit.
Poland's listed banks lent about 20 billion zlotys to engineering companies to finance the construction of roads, stadiums and other infrastructure as Poland spent five years preparing to co-host the UEFA Euro 2012, the European soccer championships that ended July 1.
Builders have, however, suffered from increased competition, delayed payments, rising costs and tight deadlines, forcing them to take losses on many of the projects. PBG SA (PBG.WA), which built the main Euro 2012 venue, the National Stadium in Warsaw, filed for bankruptcy protection a month ago due to problems with liquidity and stalling debt-reduction talks.

EEE found in York CountyUPDATED 6:54 PM EDT Aug 13, 2013
State health officials say mosquitoes in Alfred have tested positive for Eastern Equine Encephalitis. WMTW News 8's Jim Keithley reports.Video Transcript
A MOSQUITO- BORNE DISEASE HAS BEEN DETECTED IN MAINE, AND HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE WARNING THE PUBLIC TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS. TRIPLE-E OR "EASTERN EQUINE ENCEPHALITIS" HAS TURNED UP IN A POOL OF MOSQUITOES IN YORK COUNTY. TRIPLE-E IS A POTENTIALLY DEADLY DISEASE IN HUMANS. EVEN THOUGH MAINE HAS NEVER HAD A CONFIRMED HUMAN CASE - OFFICIALS SAY IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A HUMAN CASE IS DOCUMENTED HERE. WMTW NEW 8'S JIM KEITHLEY IS LIVE TONIGHT WITH MORE ON THIS. THIS BIRD BATH WITH STANDING WATER IS A BREEDING GROUND FOR MOSQUITOES - PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS SAY THE BEST THING TO DO TO DUMP IT..GET RID OF ANY STANDING WATER IN YOUR YARD. THE BEST PREVENTION IS TO COVER UP, WEAR LONG SLEEVE SHIRTS AND PANTS, A HAT AND USE INSECT REPELLANT - ALL THINGS TO PREVENT A MOSQUITO BITE. BIOLOGISTS SAY A WET SPRING AND SUMMER HAVE LED TO AN EXPLODING MOSQUITO POPULATION. IN THESE WOODS ALONG THE "CHARLES SWETT TRAIL" IN ALFRED SCIENTISTS HAVE SET-UP THESE RESTING BOXES - A WAY OF TRAPPING MOSQUITOES FOR TESTING. THE MAINE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL SAYS A POOL OF 20 MOSQUITOES COLLECTED HERE ON JULY 16TH TESTED POSITIVE FOR TRIPLE- E, EASTERN EQUINE ENCEPHALITIS. A POTENTIALLY DEADLY DISEASE IN HUMANS. "It's probably just a matter of time before there is a human case at some point." BIOLOGIOST CHUCK LUBELCZYK WITH THE "VECTOR BORN DISEASE LAB" IN SOUTH PORTLAND SAYS BOTH TRIPLE-E AND WEST NILE ARE EMERGING DISEASES AND MAINE IS THE NEW FRONTIER FOR THEM. "Mosquito numbers are quite high and what we're finding is those mosquitoes that are capable of having Triple-E and some cases West Nile are abundant and we're finding positive Triple- E mosquitoes in York County so folks that are in that area, especially interior York County, should take precautions against mosquito bites." ONE OF THE THREE SELECTMEN IN ALFRED SAYS HE'S NOT SURE WHAT THEY'LL DO YET IN REPSONSE TO THE TRIPLE-E DISCOVERY... HE'S WAITING ON A PACKET OF INFORMATION FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES. LAST YEAR THE TOWN OF LEBANON PAID TO HAVE BALLFIELDS SPRAYED TO HELP PROTECT PEOPLE - AFTER WEST NILE WAS DISCOVERED THERE, AND IN THE PAST OTHER TOWNS HAVE DONE THE SAME. SOME ALFRED RESIDENTS SAY THEY ARE CONCERNED, BUT NOT OVERLY. "The school's down that way so that's probably something to think about - I don't know if they can spray for those but what they do spray I don't want in my water." THE STATE SAYS THE COST OF SPRAYING FALLS ON THE TOWN- ALFRED SELECTMAN JOHN SYLVESTER SAYS THEY AREN'T READY TO MAKE THAT KIND OF MOVE YET. "That's obviously a big deal how much it costs, it's on the municipality, big question. So I think people just need to be cognizant of it and cautious and use their common sense, I think we'll be fine." BIOLOGISTS SAY EVEN THOUGH THE POSITIVE TESTS CAME FROM MOSQUITOES COLLECTED IN YORK COUNTY - IT'S LIKLEY TRIPLE-E HAS MADE ITS WAY NORTH TO CUMBERLAND COUNTY - SURVELLIENCE SITES HAVE BEEN SET-UP HERE AS WELL. AND THEY WILL CONTINUE TO COLLECT AND ANALYZE THEIR FIDNINGS UNTIL SEPTEMBER. LIVE IN PRTLAND, JIM KEITHLEY, WMTW

It's easy to think that missing one player is bad, but not the end of the world. That's what makes it so terrifying that missing Woolfolk legitimately cost us four points here on this solitary play. Frustrating to think what this defense would be like with him. Wouldn't solve all our problems, but dang.
this may be of some local interest

- One of the clients I've been working with closely at work is for oral care (teeth – get your mind out of the gutter pervs). So, I've been brushing my teeth and flossing twice daily now. Reading about gingivitis and tartar buildup all day is enough to scare the crap out of you.
- Today I'm researching information on diaper rash. I feel like a pervert because every so often, pictures of baby bums pop up on my screen.
- Speaking of babies, I have the attention span of a 2-year old today.
- Squirrel.
- My niece told me this morning that the only reason what she was snuggling with me was because Grandpa wasn't home. She sure knows how to make me feel good about myself.
- I had a VERY interesting dream the other night that I can't get out of my head. It was just what I needed at the moment. Fortunately/unfortunately it's a dream that will not be coming true.
- I met up with Fit Cookie Monster last night to discuss how to get me from a rouched one-piece bathing suit into a string bikini. I have high hopes that this girl is going to accomplish the challenge I've set forth for her and I can't wait to tell her how much I hate her guts while she makes me do sit-ups. And of course how silly I'll feel when I apologize and tell her I'm down another pant size.
- I was doing some reflections last night and realized how amazing and diverse my group of friends is. I anticipate a blog post about that coming up soon.
- Did you guys love my post about the Copy & Paste Date? I got some great feedback on that one. As well as the confession about how I anticipated this to be a super hard week, but in reality, my ex barely crossed my mind.
- I have a date tonight. Shh!
