I have seen a surprising amount of ill informed editorializing about the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other U.S. citizens in Benghazi, Libya on September 12th, 2012. I thought adding some context to the situation might be helpful.
Benghazi was not unique. There have been eights attacks on six different U.S. consulates in and around the Mideast since the 9/11 attack. They include:
- Karachi, Pakistan, 2002, 2003, and 2006
- Tashkent, Uzbekistan, 2002
- Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, 2004
- Damascus, Syria, 2006
- Sana'a, Yemen, 2008
- Benghazi, Libya, 2012
The events in Benghazi are complex; we don't have full knowledge of everything U.S. forces may have been doing in Libya due to the chaos resulting from the overthrow of Gaddafi. The 2012 Benghazi Attack Wikipedia entry cites many sources with varying views on the pre-conditions, the actual attack, and the response.
One thing is certain, convicted bank fraud artist Nakoula Basseley Nakoula bears some of the blame for the outburst of violence on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attack. A Coptic Christian of Egyptian descent, Nakoula is thought to be the source of Innocence Of Muslims, a crudely made trailer for a non-existent movie. Egypt's population is about 10% Coptic Christians and they face persecution at the hands of the Muslim majority. Nakoula's intent appeared to be calling attention to the injustice, but instead four Americans in Benghazi and about seventy others in the region died during violence touched off during protests of this insult.
Congress also shares a portion of the blame for the fate of Ambassador Stevens and the three others killed:
The State Department is still reeling from deep cuts made by Senate and House appropriations panels to the Obama administration's budget requests for next year, with some officials warning of national security risks. (2011-10-01)
The quote seems particular damning, but read the whole article. There was an 22% across the board cut, but a separate request for spending on Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan was approved. Including the separate request the State Department budget was still down $3.5 billion from the prior year, a very short sighted move given that Arab Spring was only ten months old at the time the decision was made.
Three autocratic governments blown away, two countries sliding into sectarian conflict, two others facing massive protests, and four that were compeled to introduce reforms by their restive population. And the response from Congress to this seismic shift? Budget cuts.
I have written before about the massive imbalance between our preventative State Department ($52 billion) and reactive Defense Department ($711 billion) budgets in Foreign Policy Futures. We typically cut spending between 25% and 35% when we finish a war. Every time we take a dollar from the Pentagon we should be slipping a dime to Foggy Bottom to ensure we don't get sucked into some avoidable future conflict.

Piercy won his second PGA Tour title after firing a three-under par 67 in the penultimate group to post 17-under 263, but had to nervously watch as McGirt (69) bogeyed out of a share of the lead and Garrigus (70) left a 14-foot birdie effort short on the 72nd hole to finish at 264.
Josh Teater (66), Bud Cauley (66) and Chris Kirk (68) shared fourth, three off the pace at 266.
Former champion and world number one Vijay Singh joined two others in a tie for seventh at 268.
Piercy started two behind 54-hole leader Garrigus but flew out of the blocks with four consecutive birdies between the second and fifth holes.
But bogeys on the eighth and 14th holes gave McGirt the edge until Piercy made a short chip-in birdie on the 15th and McGirt three-putted the same green to tie things up at the top.
McGirt then pushed his approach on the last into a greenside bunker and couldn't get up and down, while Garrigus, needing birdie, managed a close approach, but left the 14-foot putt inches short.
Piercy now qualifies for the lucrative World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational in Akron, Ohio, next week forcing him to miss out on defending his Reno-Tahoe Open title from 2011.
"I am so excited. Reno last year was definitely a platform for me to showcase how good I could really be and if that's any sign to how this year has been I've got some big things coming up," the 33-year-old Piercy said.
"You just have to believe in yourself. Half the battle is being confident in yourself. Just knowing you can get there. If you keep working hard, good things will come."
McGirt was left to rue letting a maiden title slip but still secured enough points to qualify for the upcoming playoff series and also his PGA Tour card for 2013.
"It was a struggle to get the butterflies to fly in formation, let's put it that way," he said.
"I have never been in this situation before. But to have the chance to win a golf tournament, to have the chance to get in a playoff, it was something new to me but it was an absolute blast. I just kind of hit the worst putt of the week on the last hole."
Graham DeLaet secured low Canadian honors at 278, 15 shots off the pace.

I just returned from SVB's Leadership Summit for venture
capital and private equity CFOs, where I had the opportunity to facilitate
several discussions about new regulations affecting the venture capital and
private equity arenas. We were "fortunate" enough to be meeting the day after
the SEC announced their new rules defining venture capital funds. This definition will determine which fund managers will have to
begin registering with the SEC next spring – venture capital funds won't have
to take this step, while private equity funds will.
As you can imagine, the conversation was fairly intense
as we all grappled to understand the new ruling and what it means for all of us
within the innovation ecosystem. In a nutshell, the new rule defines
"venture capital fund" for the purposes of the exemption as a private fund that
(1) invests no more than 20 percent of capital commitments in non-qualifying
investments, (2) does not borrow or incur leverage, (3) does not offer its investors
redemption or other similar liquidity rights except in extraordinary
circumstances, (4) represents itself a pursing a venture capital
strategy, and (5) is not registered under the Investment Company Act and has
not elected to be treated as a business development company.
Overall, I thought the SEC did a really good job
listening to the feedback SVB, the NVCA, and many others provided. Their
final rules incorporated a number of changes that make a lot of sense. We
were heartened, for example, to see that the final rules provide flexibility to
let venture funds and their portfolio companies use debt in ways that are
consistent with the venture model (as opposed to buyout financing), and
recognize the difference between a venture fund staying with a company once it
goes public and a private equity fund buying shares in an existing, public
I'm proud to believe that SVB played a part in the SEC's
decision, by filing comments and providing our perspectives to the
policymakers. We did this as part of our broader effort to engage on public
policy issues that we believe will meaningfully affect the innovation ecosystem
and the ability of our clients to succeed.
We'll continue to work with our private equity clients as
they work to comply with the new custody rules. More broadly, we'll
continue to work to educate policymakers about the effect policies, laws and
regulations have on the innovation sector, and why this sector is so critical
to the United States' long term economic growth and competitiveness. But
for today, it's great to see that when we all step forward, we can work
together to move things in a positive direction.

Following yesterdays "A Youthful Approach To China", I thought it appropriate to take a look at some more new products, but this time, look at those that pull from existing, older designs. During the 1960's Jens Quistgaard, a Danish industrial designer, teamed up with Dansk International Designs to produce some of the most well known, mid-century, modern, "funky", tableware classics, that incorporate teak throughout the design. These pieces are now difficult to find and once you do, they are very expensive! However, Dansk recently decided to relaunch this classic design, offering only a few items this time, a salt & pepper shaker and a decorative ice bucket that have been modeled after the original design. The material for the new pieces no longer incorporate teak, but rather acacia, a type of shrub, that makes this new line much more affordable! Dansk continues to offer great innovation and their products have, and continue to stand the test of time. Since 1968, we have been offering such products and are pleased to offer such a great collection form Dansk. Now through Friday, we invite you to shop our Dansk collection and would like to offer you 15% off your next Dansk order! Simply enter the coupon code below during check out, and save instantly!

Alex Ovechkin earned his night away from hockey.
Ovechkin will miss the Washington Capitals' final preseason game on Saturday in order to take part in the start of the Olympic torch relay in Greece. The first Russian to carry the torch flew off on a high note by scoring twice as the Capitals beat the Philadelphia Flyers 6-3 Friday night at Verizon Center.
The Capitals blew a 3-0 lead as the Flyers got goals by Claude Giroux, Scott Hartnell and Wayne Simmonds in a span of less than five minutes late in the second period. But Eric Fehr's second goal of the night and fourth in the past two games broke the tie 1:35 into the third period. Ovechkin added a power-play goal less than three minutes later, and Mathieu Perreault hit the empty net.
"Going to Greece boys!!! Can't wait!!! See u soon!" Ovechkin said on his Twitter account afterward.
The game featured five fights as well as a five-minute major and game misconduct to Philadelphia's Zach Rinaldo for elbowing Mikhail Grabovski.
Washington finishes its preseason schedule Saturday night in Chicago without Ovechkin, but he'll be in the lineup Tuesday when the Capitals are back at the United Center for their season opener against the defending Stanley Cup champions.
"They weren't missing too many guys, but they played last night so maybe they were a little tired," Capitals coach Adam Oates said when asked if the win was a barometer of his team's readiness. "We had a lot of guys play well. We're just continuing the process of trying to get ready for Tuesday.
"All in all, the guys know what they have to do and we're going in the right direction."
The Flyers open their season on the road against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night after winning only one preseason game in seven tries.
"We didn't play bad," captain Claude Giroux said. "When we were playing the way we wanted to, we were great. We're a dangerous team and we need to believe that -- the sooner the better."

A typo-deliberate version of own, a slang term that means to dominate. This could also be spelled "0\/\/n3d" or "pwn3d," among other variations.
I pwn you at Quake 3.
viết bởi PsYko 17 Tháng hai, 2005
The utterance or transcribing of this word is the sure sign of an internet loser. For concerned parties, also look for pwned and pwnage. Basically started as leetards making typos in their own stupid language, and now passes for humor amongst zit-faced boys or 40 year old men trying to fit in with zit-faced boys.
My name is Fata1ity! I will pwn you!

Means the same thing as own, and is the basic founding of 1337-sp33k. Was first used in a game of StarCraft for PC (by Blizzard) on accident.
I PWNED j00!

Quite obviously a typo for own. If you have a qwerty keyboard then you will notice that the p and the o are next to each other. Our ancestor (1 generation ago) used the word own quite commonly but over time people got the impression that the typo pwn was actually a word. If you think about it the words own and pwn can be used in the same contex.
God damn i own
God damn i pwn

Originally, an old-school hacker term meaning "to gain control over someone else's computer/network by hacking thier root account and assigning yourself 'admin' permissions", which has more recently been mis-appropriated by script kiddies and gamers to indicate that they are better at a game than someone else, or some stupid shit like that.
None. Real hackers don't actually use the word themselves, it is always used by someone else *about* them.

MIS Human Secret Weapon
- Studio: MIS FILM Partners
- Release Date: Apr 6, 2012
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
The execution is a bit clumsy, but the documentary MIS: Human Secret Weapon shines a light on an interesting bit of World War II history.
When one MIS vet refers to "American soldiers" and doesn't include himself, his son-in-law corrects him, but even after all of his service to his country, the man still feels excluded, a sense that the film powerfully communicates throughout.
Junichi Suzuki's documentary ratchets up the sentiment when a cooler touch would have sufficed.
The accompanying trove of archival footage and photos, however, helps break the occasional monotony; the juxtaposition of these elderly vets with snapshots of their 1940s-era, uniformed selves is always affecting.
The documentary necessitates a degree of respect and sensitivity that makes it difficult to stress how bad it is.

You either love Howard Stern or you hate him. Well that may be a bit of an exaggeration but the controversial radio-television shock host is more than familiar with controversy. Stern's shows are laden with foul language and sexually explicit "humor." The Federal Communications Commission on Wednesday handed down the largest fine in history to resolve complaints against the Stern show. I fear it will not be nearly enough to alter the Stern format.
The FCC fined the nation's largest radio chain a record $1.75 million on Wednesday. That tops the $1.7 million paid in 1995 for indecency violations by Stern with another radio chain. Despite the massive fines, Stern remains on the air plying his usual brand of entertainment.
Stern's violation results not necessarily from his radio show content but rather that the show is broadcast during times when youngsters may be tuning in. Had the content been broadcast at night, Stern would be in the clear.
The irony is that the fines will generate more attention for Stern and probably bring more listeners to his show. That will mean more advertising revenue and higher profits. And nothing positive may result.
Stern, with his healthy ego, thinks the fines are because of his liberal political views. But that's just a ploy to divert attention and everyone knows it. The bottom line is that Stern makes money from airing smut. Like it or not, that is indeed the fact.
I've listened and watched Stern's programs. I marvel on how they can "get by" with much of their material but even that is not my concern. The bottom line is that I don't find Stern even remotely funny. Content aside, he's just a pathetic character using bathroom humor and over-the-top sex to sell a radio or television program. The FCC should have fined the radio chain an amount equal to the profits derived from his show. That would put a halt to the program and alter the content.
I'm tired of the rhetoric about First Amendment free speech concerns. That's hogwash. Howard Stern peddles obscene content to make a buck. And if he is allowed to push his trash, we're to blame.

From high school to Harvard to the NFL, Isaiah Kaczyvenski's life was football. Now, the former linebacker who still suffers the affects of at least five concussions has committed to help a new team. One day, Isaiah's brain will be here, in the brain bank. This is where neuropathologist Doctor Ann McKee examines the donated brains of deceased athletes
Looking for signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE.
It's believed to be caused by repeat concussions or other brain trauma. These slides show the damage. On the left, a normal 65 year old's brain. On the right, deceased 45 year old NFL linebacker John Grimsley's brain.
"You'd compare it to some older person say 70s and 80s with severe end stage dementia," said Ann McKee, M.D., Professor of Neurology & Pathology & Laboratory Medicine Director, Neuropathology Core.
"14 of the first 15 NFL players that we looked at for this disease had it," said Chris Nowinski, Co-Director, Boston University Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy.
Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy's Chris Nowinski recruits athletes to donate their brains. The former professional wrestler is also Isaiah's college teammate.
"This is the only type of dementia that exists that's preventable."
CTE has been spotted in deceased college and high school athletes. Nowinski says to help prevent it, we need to limit what young athletes do on the field.
"And people are going to fight like heck to say should a 6 year old be heading a soccer ball. "
Isaiah knows he's at risk for CTE and that when his brain gets here, it could prevent the next generation from developing it.

If it tastes fizzy and sour, it may be spoiled.
Then you wait until it becomes cheese.
If it looks nasty and disgusting, don't eat it
Oh wait, all yogurt looks that way and that's why I don't eat it
I have so done that. Unfortunately the yogurt dropped on my new running shoe and not someone's head. So I gave up yogurt and running.
Yogurt tastes like something you thought you threw out last week.

How Can I Tell If My Boyfriend Is Right For Me?
As a girl, you might have those Sunday afternoon thoughts about "is my boyfriend a good match for me?" Usually just an unconscious thought, but it can get you thinking. So what are the ways in which you can judge if your present boyfriend is right for you, in terms of a long-term relationship?
He Makes You LaughIf your boyfriend does not make you laugh it won't be long before you find that the relationship has gotten a little too "serious" and boring. Most guys have a good sense of humor, but that's not what is being talked about here. It's about how cheerful you feel in his company. He does not have to be cracking jokes and commenting all the time, but it's just about the vibe you feel when you talk to him. So you know you can trust him to make you feel relaxed, and cheery, most of the times.
He Makes You CryThey say that true love is "bitter sweet", what this means is that when you really love someone you get to taste the sweetness and bitterness of the emotion. When you are really in love, it's normal to feel "pain" along with the pleasure. You miss him, you "fight" with him, you get jealous, you get into arguments, you hate him at times, you feel like kicking him at times but all along you can't stop loving him either. This is what makes for a "spicy" relationship, and it's the spice that makes a relationship go the course. If your boyfriend has never made you cry, it won't be long because you start feeling that there is something "missing".
He Does Not Cheat On YouWhen a guy cheats on a girl, it's evident that he does not respect her status in his life as his girlfriend. There can be no depth to a relationship which is based on a lie. So if you ever catch your boyfriend cheating on (even in subtle ways), it's a sign that your relationship has gone "luke warm". It need not just be a sex affair, something as simple as flirting with other girls while in your company can be taken to be a sign of "cheating". You need to decide if you find him "genuine" in his love for you.
He Has His Own LifeIt's so important that a guy is "self occupied". Any guy who does not know what to do with his life, is going to be a nuisance to the girl. It's true that guys go through phases in their life when they are clueless about where they are heading and what they want to do, this is usually the time when relationship goes for a toss. Unless your boyfriend is happy with "his" life, he will not be able to keep you happy in the relationship. He has to find something that he "loves" other than you, or else he will become too needy for your love and attention which will in turn push you away from him.
You Don't Feel Like Cheating on HimIf your boyfriend is right for you, then you will not feel like "flirting" with other guys or cheating on him. Girls who cheat on their boyfriend are usually the ones who have lost "attraction" for him. For a girl it's quite impossible to be in love and "cheat" at the same time (It's not that true for guys though). Of course, it's fine to have a few "oh my god, what a hunk", thoughts about another guy, but if it goes beyond it, then there is a problem. Basically, your "attraction factor" is the index of how much your boyfriend means to you, the more attracted you are to him the less you notice other guys.
You Feel Comfortable in His CompanyIf your boyfriend gives off a "weirdo" alarm in you ever so often, then it's indicative that you are not very comfortable in his company. Many girls find it "offsetting" to see the sexual inclinations, or fantasies, that their boyfriend has. Some are uncomfortable with the sexual demands, or roles, asked of them. In a relationship, it's really important that you don't feel exploited, used or manipulated. You should feel genuinely relaxed and comfortable in the company of your boyfriend; this is a true indicator of how "right" he is for you.
Trust Your IntuitionGirls have a very useful "radar" inbuilt within called their "gut" intuition. This radar is pretty good at scanning circumstances and giving "truth" alarms every now and then. Learn to trust your intuition as a girl, it's a gift of nature to help protect and safe guard yourself. Sometimes you might be with someone, who your friends don't approve of, but your intuition says that he's the one for you – trust your intuition more than your friends. Love is "invisible" and can only be judged by something equally invisible, like your intuition.
These tips should help you tell if your boyfriend is right for you. When in doubt, always check in on your intuition and trust it.

Traders Gotta Trade: Stocks Rally on Headline Roulette
Spanish bond yields, Italian bond yields, and even German bond yields are rising, in a sign that Europe's sovereign-debt crisis is actually moving further away from a solution, not nearer. But U.S. stocks today rose despite those worrying signs.
U.S. stocks wiped away yesterday's selloff, and even added a little sparkle at the end, with the Dow rising 163 points (1.3%) to 12574. The S&P 500 jumped 15 (1.2%) to 1324, and the Nasdaq comp gained 33 (1.2%) to 2843.
Every sector on the S&P 500 rose, with materials, financials, and industrials rising the most. On the Dow, Boeing, IBM, and Caterpillar were the top gainers. United Tech was the lone decliner.
So, why were U.S. stocks in such a tizzy about Europe yesterday, but positively sanguine today? That's the $64,000 question.
Stock traders are basically playing headline roulette. Today they seized upon a renew call for euro bonds from the ECB's vice chairman, Vitor Constancio. But as the story makes clear, this isn't a new stance from the ECB. And more importantly, euro bonds are a long, long ways off.
Meanwhile, the crisis is on Europe's doorstep. The yield on the Spanish 10-year bond touched 6.85% this morning, a blaring red flag for anybody paying attention. Italian bond yields were rising as well, and even German bond yields were rising, as investors are starting to get nervous about the rising costs to Europe's largest economy.
So, why'd stocks rally? You're not going to like this answer, but it's the truth: traders gotta trade. Cops walk the beat, dentists drill teeth, roughnecks drill oil. Traders trade. Some days, the market's going to rise for no discernible reason. Some days, it'll drop.
It sounds flip, but it's really not. We'll put it in more technical terms: stocks are stuck in a range here, roughly between 1280 and 1335 on the S&P 500. Within that range, the market can turn on a dime. Picture one of those giant flocks of birds.
Keep an eye on the longer-term trends. Watch for a breakout one way or the other, but don't get too nuts with moves within that range; right now, for example, the Dow's up about 20 points on the week. You want to extrapolate something from that?
The more fundamental market to keep an eye on are those bond markets. Spanish bond yields have gotten worse as a result of the bailout news, not better.

Big welcome into FierySpirits... I had some friends connected with Dynamix many years ago (Claire O'Kane was one - also on fiery spirits now)... and was really impressed with Dynamix' work with young people. Looking forward to learning a bit more about what you're up to when you have a minute - do you have any videos you could 'embed', that sort of thing?
Best wishes

When I'd see kids around me wearing anything outside of the collared shirts and jean skirts everyone in my friend group wore, I just assumed they were bad kids. They were the type of kids I wasn't allowed to hang out with. They were the ones who were either skipping school or, if they were showing up, they were showing up blazed out of their minds from the mass quantities of pot they'd smoke prior to arriving. These were the kids I was taught to stay away from because they were "bad news" and all of that other shit parents tell you to put the fear of god inside of you to keep you on track.
Not to say my parents did a bad job of raising me because that's not the case at all, my parents were great, but I was very much sheltered. I'm not sure if it was strictly the way I was brought up, or perhaps it was a mix of something inside of me I was born with, but I was basically afraid to step outside of the lines in my life for a very long time. Taking chances and being different simply weren't things my life knew anything about. I guess you could say I grew up being extremely closed minded.
I remember on the first day of my sophomore year in high school there was this guy who showed up with blue hair. This was, sort of, the first real instance of someone being blatantly different, and not being afraid to step outside of Abercrombie and Fitch, I had ever noticed before. He seemed nice enough but I knew he wasn't one of the people my parents would ever approve of me hanging out with. "He's bad news", I could just hear my mom saying if I even tried to ask to hang out with this blue haired guy. But he was so, so nice and he always let me borrow a #2 pencil on the days we'd have a test and I only had a mechanical pencil. He was genuine and kind, he never made fun of me or flicked stickers from the back of his planner at me, like the rest of the pubescent deuchebobs did. He was one of the first true guy friends I had ever made in life and I gave zero shits as to what color the hair on his head was.
A few times during that year I tried to hang out with him outside of school, much to my parents disapproval. "Mr. Blue Hair" was up to no good, as far as they were concerned, but I just couldn't help but wonder why they weren't giving him a chance. Why were they so fast to judge, solely based on the color of his hair? I never really got an answer for the questions I continually pondered, but I continued my friendship with him, without the knowledge of my parents, because he never gave me a reason not to. It was, sort of, the first time I had ever stepped out of the box and tried calling my own shots.
It's all kind of ironic to me now, that these were the lessons being instilled into my head growing up, because I think I've, somewhat, become one of those kids my parents never wanted me hanging out with. I love to get a little too drunk with my friends, I have five tattoos and counting, writing on anything and everything with Sharpie puts a huge smile on my face, the word "fuck" is a staple in my vocabulary, just as black nail polish is a staple in my polish collection, a portion of my hair is now bubble gum pink, and I think I would break out in hives if I was forced to wear a collared shirt. I am the kid I was raised to stay away from, but it doesn't mean I'm a bad seed or that I'm going to end up incarcerated, it just means I'm me.
Often I see judgements made towards the way someone dresses, talks, or towards how skinny or fat they are and it doesn't make any sense to me. There are some genuinely shitty people out there on the inside, who do nothing but tear people down and wish the worst for everyone around them, and it doesn't matter what color their hair is, or what style of shirt they're wearing, THEY are the ones I wish I would have been raised to judge and stay away from. They are the true "bad news" of the bunch and it doesn't matter if their hair is purple, blonde, grey, or yellow.
Finding the good in people isn't an exterior thing, not even a little bit. You could be adorned in the most expensive fibers known to man but that does not make you a "good seed", or a good person, it just makes you a person who spent more on your attire than the majority of us can afford. It's about what's on the inside and that stuff you can't pay for. That stuff that drives you to do something nice for a stranger or bring your friend ice cream and their favorite booze when they've had a bad day.
Just because you have everything you need to fit in on the exterior does not make you worthy of any of it if you don't have the credentials on the inside. Just as that blue haired guy turned out to be a great friend, he could have easily been a blue haired guy who was, truly, a bad seed. The color of his hair was never the judge of that and, while I love them and am forever grateful for the lessons my parents did instill inside of me, I'm even more grateful that I managed to learn along the way that a perfect exterior to the eye does not equate to a caring interior, and those who deserve to be judged aren't the ones who choose to express themselves through their wardrobe or their hair color, it's those who lack heart and humanity for those around them.

Campbellsville University is ahead of last spring's enrollment and is looking at 16 semesters of record enrollment. The numbers are up almost 4 percent from last year.
Of the 2,303 students enrolled for the spring semester, almost 65 percent of those were full-time degree-seeking undergraduates.
These numbers, however, are only an estimate of what the total enrollment could likely be.

I'm not sure if I understand your problem. Did you actually have any
trouble resolving the name, or are you just wondering about the cache
content (without having any actual trouble)? If it's the latter,
please be more specific about what you did, what you expected, and
what you actually got.
If it's the former, does that always happen, or is it an occasional
problem? If it's occasional, that may be a known bug in 9.5 about
cache entry management, and will be fixed in the next beta.

The best things in life are unexpected, because there were no expectations.
– Eli Khamarov
I'd be lying if I said I had no expectations that chilly December week. I poured myself endlessly over my laptop screen, trying desperately to find just the right domain name for this new venture I'd be taking. 'Would it really matter?' I asked myself, 'No one will read it anyways.' My mind was a jumble of hopes and dreams, thoughts and anticipation, doubt and insecurities. For years I'd been writing, though not much of my work was read by others. I'd had visions of my not-so-single self sitting behind a frosty window, in my cute sweats, sipping a martini, and sporting the well-known Carrie Bradshaw hair. Alas, I write from a little corner desk in my not-so-NYC-home, that over looks a parking lot. None the less, I had a desire to write and to be heard. To create something that would bring women together, inspire, encourage.
After weeks of perfecting my look, I had designed the makeup of my tiny space on the web. With bursting excitement, on January 14, 2009, The Creative Mama was born. I had a small group of beloved friends and family that 'promised' me they were reading. Devoted pals encouraged me, and occasionally commented. I wrote what was on my heart, I shared projects I'd been working on. I was able to use my love for photography in a new way and this ignited a fire within me! I poured my heart and soul into this brand new outlet of mine, and though I felt I was talking to a blank wall, I trudged on. January ended with a whopping 7 subscribers. I was proud, and elated. I had no idea where this would take me; but I knew I was enjoying myself, I was being creative, and most importantly I was writing.
The months went on and I continued to find myself inspired by my readers. Women I'd never met were beginning to rally around me, supporting my sometimes sappy articles and cheering me on as I gave it my all. These women became friends and a community began to build. I was humbled and honored that people made time to sit at their computers, clicking over to visit The Creative Mama. With so many wonderful blogs out there to encourage and inspire, I felt so blessed to be apart of their daily readings.
Then it happened. A big series I did over the summer on photography involved some amazing artists, my traffic increased on a daily basis and the amount of subscribers quickly hit 1000. I could hardly believe it. This tiny little baby of mine that was just a vision 8 short months prior, had blossomed into a soul-feeding, mind-blowing, full-time job. I sat here in my little corner one afternoon, attempting to write for the following week. For what felt like the 100th time, my four-year-old begged me to play Star Wars with him. I saw the tears in his big, brown eyes and my mind raced with thoughts of my to-do list. There were articles to be written, comments to moderate, an inbox to be tackled, images to edit, galleries to get up, dinner to be made… little boys to be played with. It was then that I realized, this something I longed for, this outlet I created, had turned into something that was slowly eating away at my family. I could blog all I wanted about my darling children, but what good was I typing about them when I needed to be with them?
With The Creative Mama in her prime, and the heaviest of hearts, I said my good-byes. Tears were streaming so, I could hardly see the screen the day I typed what I thought would be my last article. I turned to the kids, almost unsure what to do next. Over the next 6 weeks we snuggled, and we played with light sabers, I photographed them more, and we watched Animal Planet. I continued my photography business and was even able to take part in an amazing online workshop. My fingers ached to type, but my heart was full. I knew I had made the best decision for me, for my family.
During this time I couldn't bare to look at feedburner or my stats sites. I had worked so hard to get The Creative Mama where she was, I knew I would be just devastated to see the numbers so low. That is until a few weeks ago, when I accidentally clicked a bookmarked statcounter. My jaw was on the floor. As it turns out, I'd only lost a small handful of subscribers and wouldn't you know, in all that time of not blogging TCM saw hundreds upon hundreds of new visitors daily. I knew there must be a reason for this, and began to formulate a plan in my head.
Little did I know that the following weeks would bring eight very special women to the table. Each of them were asked because I admire, respect, and adore them. They are my team, they are the new Creative Mama. Without them, TCM could not be. We work together now, to bring unique and inspiring content that is sure to tug at the heart strings, bring laughter and joy, and hopefully give new insight to creative ways to live our every day lives.
Did I expect the road to lead me here? Not in the slightest. Oftentimes though, those unexpected beauties are the ones to treasure. I treasure the challenges it took to walk away, and I embrace the road we are on now. I'd encourage you to join us, we'd love to get to know you!

Sierra Club Applauds Federal Agreement on Clean Energy Siting
Washington, D.C. - Today, the Obama administration announced a formal Memorandum of Understanding signed between various agencies involved in the siting of large-scale renewable energy projects and transmission lines, including the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Department of Commerce, Department of Defense, Department of Energy, Environmental Protection Agency, Council on Environmental Quality, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, and Department of the Interior.
Statement of Sierra Club Clean Energy Solutions Campaign Director Alex Levinson
Cooperation between agencies will be essential as we build the large clean energy projects necessary to fight global warming. It's encouraging to see the Obama administration commit to the kind of collaboration needed to swiftly ramp up our nation's clean energy infrastructure.
In order to combat global warming, we need to drastically reduce carbon pollution by replacing coal and other fossil fuels with cleaner energy sources. These include efficiency and small-scale measures like solar panels on homes, as well as large-scale wind and solar projects.
We have an opportunity now to get America's clean energy right, from the start. We can strike a balance between building the large-scale renewable power, quickly, and protecting ecologically sensitive lands. This means taking the time at the front end to identify the most suitable sites for energy development.
Some of the best places to build new energy projects are lands that are already in use with farming, roads, and development. The Sierra Club will continue to work with federal and local agencies, as well as power generators, to identify the best possible sites for energy projects and avoid conflicts with wildlife.
Any new power infrastructure that's built should be designed to support clean energy. New transmission lines should carry wind and solar power, not dirty coal.
With careful planning and cooperation now, we can end the legacy of environmental destruction from outdated energy sources like coal and oil.

Only Subaru Gets Top Marks In Compact-SUV Crash Tests
Sport-utility vehicles are again eclipsing the family car, much like they did 15 to 20 years ago.
The difference this time is that small SUVs, not large ones, are becoming the preferred form of personal and family transport for drivers who are attracted to their extra cabin and cargo space, upright seating positions and relatively good fuel economy.
But as a group these vehicles lag behind cars in their crash performance, according to the insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
The safety-research group, which is funded by the Insurance Industry, recently ran 13 compact SUVs through its new, especially rigorous "small overlap" frontal crash test to evaluate how well they protect occupants in collisions. Eleven wound up with poor or marginal ratings while one, the 2014 Subaru Forester, received the best-possible rating of good.
The Forester and the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, which got an "acceptable" rating on the small-overlap test, each received the Insurance Institute's Top Safety Pick+ award. The plus indicates a good or acceptable rating in the small overlap frontal test along with good ratings in the other 4 IIHS crash evaluations that include front, side, rear and rollover testing.
Others did less well. The IIHS said the Nissan Rogue's structural performance in the test, for example, was among the worst its engineers have ever seen.
The recent tests mark the first time small SUVs have been through the small-overlap test, which represents a crash in which only the front corner of a vehicle strikes another vehicle, or a tree or pole.
The IIHS said research shows this kind of accident accounts for about 24% of the serious injuries and deaths resulting from frontal crashes.
Except for the 2014 Forester, vehicles in the test group were 2012 or 2013 models. Here is a list of the vehicles tested and how they performed overall:
Subaru Forester: Good
Mitsubishi Outlander Sport: Acceptable
BMW X1: Marginal
Nissan Rogue: Marginal
Mazda CX-5: Marginal
Honda CR-V: Marginal
Jeep Wrangler 2-door: Marginal
Volkswagen Tiguan: Marginal
Hyundai Tucson: Poor
Kia Sportage: Poor
Buick Encore: Poor
Jeep Patriot: Poor
Ford Escape: Poor

Site Translators: Call numbers in VoyagerBottom of Page
1 to 17 of 17
I'm running into occasional issues when using Zotero with the UCLA catalog online (http://catalog.library.ucla.edu/), which is a Voyager system, and Zotero uses the Voyager translator. Specifically, when I save a book listing from the catalog, Zotero often pulls an incorrect call number. According to the library catalogers, this is because the call number in the primary MARC record is the LoC call number, and the UCLA call number, when it differs, is stored in the holdings record.
- CommentAuthorajlyon
- CommentTimeOct 25th 2009
To quote the cataloger who kindly described what's going on:
"Essentially, the call number in the *bibliographic* record (which is where Zotero appears be looking) is the call number assigned by the Library of Congress. For various reasons (if you are interested, I can go into more detail), we at UCLA may have chosen to use a different call number-- or, often we will catalog something that has not been cataloged by the Libary of Congress at all. The call number that we use at UCLA is in a holdings record (which is also a MARC record, but a different kind of MARC record) that is linked to the bibliographic record, and is specific to the particular location at UCLA. Sometimes if UCLA has more than one copy of something at different locations, there will be multiple holdings records and the call number may vary within UCLA locations. So the only accurate source of the call number is a holdings record."
I would like to have Zotero pull the call number actually in use at UCLA, so that I can then go and pull the book off the shelf.
The cataloger offered the following attempts to solve this:
"(1) Is it possible to use the e-mailing function in the OPAC to send the records to yourself and then manipulate them in some way using Zotero?? Because whatever is used in the e-mail function does capture the UCLA call numbers and locations.
(2) See if Zotero can be modified in some way to capture call numbers from holdings records???"
One example of this issue is Joseph Mozur's _Parables from the past : the prose
fiction of Chingiz Aitmatov_, published 1995. The correct call number,
displayed in the catalog, is: PL65.K5 A31Zm2 1995. However, if you
look at the MARC record, the call number is listed in Zotero as PL44.9.A36 Z78
1995. See this link to replicate the issue: http://catalog.library.ucla.edu/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?v1=3&ti=1,3&Search_Arg=joseph%20mozur&Search_Code=GKEY^&SL=None&CNT=50&PID=JzexI5t2VyQBmSFWTvhJ8JpDPUMu&SEQ=20091024221858&SID=1
I imagine that this issue is common to all, or at least many, libraries that use Voyager catalogs, and it is difficult to identify, because Zotero does in fact pull a call number, it's just not reliably the one you need.
From looking a little at other Voyager systems, this issue appears to affect all Voyager-based catalogs-- Zotero uses the MARC bibliographic record to pull call numbers, rather than the associated MARC holdings records. This causes problems whenever the library in question has assigned a call number that differs from the LoC call number in the bibliographic record.
- CommentAuthorajlyon
- CommentTimeOct 27th 2009
I suppose it is an open question as to which call number _should_ be pulled by Zotero, but I'd prefer the holdings record call number, since there's no guarantee that the LoC call number, as listed in the bibliographic record, will point to the actual book. Then again, there's absolutely no reason to expect that the local library's call number would be of use to other scholars in other libraries if it differs from the LoC-assigned number.
Can anyone shed light on this? Is there a way to have Zotero use the MARC holdings record?
- CommentAuthorajlyon
- CommentTimeNov 1st 2009
Out of curiousity, has anybody worked out a way to do this in the past two years? It is, obviously, an issue of only minor annoyance.
It should be working correctly now, pulling the holdings number. Works for me at UCLA, at least.
Hmmm. It doesn't work for me on the University of Cambridge catalogue (http://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/newton/) which uses a system as described above. See, for instance, http://ul-newton.lib.cam.ac.uk/vwebv/holdingsInfo?bibId=5217619
It doesn't seem to be working consistently for me in the UCLA catalogue, either-- it seems to be fine when the call number is in the 050 of the Bib record; however, when it's in the 090 of the record it only takes the part that's in the $a, and leaves out the $b. For instance, in this record it's showing the call number as PQ2668.077, but ignoring the Z7 2004 which is in the 090 $b.
I'm using Zotero 2.1.10, which seems to be the most recent version.
I find it easy to tell with the Cambridge catalogue where Zotero is getting the classmark from, as Cambridge doesn't use the Library of Congress Classification system, which is what's in the 050 field. The Cambridge classification number is never in the bib record, only the holdings record.
Oh, and I should say, thanks for the prompt response on a 2 year old thread. I really didn't expect to see a response before lunch!
So I'll add the 948 field to the MARC importer, and add the $b subfield for the 090 field as well.
Thanks for pointing this out and for finding the underlying cause.
Which of the subfields for 948 do you need? I see |a 20110907 |b jch70 |c ULCAT-h |d c -- I'm inclined to use just $a, but you know better.
Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/translators/raw/master/MARC.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data).
It should start working. If this works for you, please post here so that I can submit this change to be pushed to all users.
You don't want the 948 field. That's a locally defined field (by each library) that's part of the Bib record-- in the case of Cambridge, it records the person who catalogued this book (me). Ie, 20110907 means I catalogued it on Sept. 7; jch70 is my user name; and ULCAT-h is the department I work in.

The classmark/call number in the cambridge system (and I suspect the UCLA system*) comes from the 852 field in the holdings record (subfield $h, I think). I don't think the holdings record is actually public-- the MARC view/staff view doesn't show the holdings record.
It is displayed in the holdings information, but simply visible for the online interface. But Zotero isn't scraping the page for this information, is it? It's actually parsing the MARC record, right? In which case, I wouldn't think it's actually visible to Zotero... But I don't really understand how these things work.
*Edited to add-- by this I mean the call number that you're actually seeing on the web interface. See, for instance, a record in UCLA for a video, which doesn't use the Library of Congress classification system-- and thus there's no indication of the call number in the bib record visible in MARC view.
Thanks-- works much better with UCLA. That's helpful.
I should note, I work in the Cambridge library, but I don't use Zotero to record books I've catalogued-- I just knew that the book I linked to wouldn't have any Library of Congress classification numbers in the record for various reasons (ie, they weren't there).
(to explain a bit the call number for the cambridge book: 2011 is the year it was catalogued, 8 is the size, and 3939 is simply a running number. No subject classification at all)
no, Zotero is only parsing the MARC - the actual displays in different Voyager catalogs are too different to parse them in a stable way.
- CommentAuthoradamsmith
- CommentTimeNov 30th 2011
Ah, ok. Thanks. In that case, the Library of Congress call number from the 050 / 090 is probably all that will be possible.
Thanks, and sorry for the diversion with the Cambridge catalogue-- it's one of the few that uses a local classification scheme that won't be in the Bib record.
For a bit of further information on the 090 / 050 etc fields and what the subfields mean, see here : http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/es/0xx/090.shtm
As you can see from the list on the left, the variety of classification schemes do each have their own fields, but of course they're not all used. In Cambridge, we don't use the 098 or 099 fields, even if they do seem like they would be appropriate. But again, Cambridge is pretty unique in not using one of the classification schemes that won't be mentioned in the main bib record.
Thanks for all your help.
It is still possible to write a Cambridge-specific site translator that gets your call numbers from the page text, and building off of the existing Voyager code. You may want to explore such an option if Zotero compatibility is a priority. Information on translator authoring here: http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/translators
Thank you-- I will look at that over the weekend. Hopefully I can manage something.

Research Article
The Neopalatial period of Middle to Late Bronze Age Crete is marked by a dramatic increase in the depiction of non-human animals. In contrast to the domesticates listed in the Linear A documents, the animals which appear on frescoes and seals are largely wild or supernatural, or in non-domestic scenes (particularly bull-leaping). This article seeks to explore the quantitative differences between the types of animals displayed on different media, and ask why non-domestic animals appear in such significant proportions. Arthur Evans and subsequent scholars have explained this phenomenon as an expression of interest in the natural world. Instead of this modernist view, it will be argued here that it is by trying to approach these depictions as expressing specifically Bronze Age human-animal relations that the role of such animals in Cretan society can be understood. From a relational perspective, the animals depicted can be seen as active participants in prestige activities such as hunting or bull-leaping rather than the passive motifs of artistic naturalists. This perspective might also provide a more illuminating answer to the question: why depict animals?
