A Must Read - Share
As Apple's growth has slowed and its stock has crashed, die-hard Apple fans have started defending the company based on the quality of its products. Apple isn't selling a cheaper iPhone, Apple fans explain, because Apple doesn't want to sell one. Apple doesn't like selling "cheap plastic crap." Apple doesn't want to make "phones for the masses." Apple just makes products for people who like (and are willing to pay for) the finer things in life--like BMW. The trouble with this argument is that it ignores two things: First, the market for BMWs (and BMW-like smartphones) is small and

Science Fiction Can Rescue Black Communities
By Stafford L. Battle Special to the NNPA from the New Pittsburgh Courier | 10/17/2013, 6:33 p.m.
(BlackNews.com) — October has been dubbed African American Speculative Fiction Month by a group of online enthusiasts. This was done to acknowledge the writers, artists, entertainers and independent publishers around the country and elsewhere who are producing science fiction narratives, performances and art featuring Afrocentric themes. African Americans also use October to celebrate the merger of science and the arts via AFROFuturism.
Speculative fiction encourages people to look beyond their day-to-day existence and consider new possibilities that could benefit and enrich their lives. AFROFuturism incorporates novels, short stories, comic books, graphic arts, music, dance, video and other artistic forms that embrace science fiction and fantasy — for entertainment, encouragement and education.
The unofficial hub of African American speculative fiction is Atlanta, Georgia.
During October for the last three years, the Auburn Avenue Research Library on African American Culture and History has offered readings, panel discussions, music and art demonstrating the Afrocentric involvement in science fiction and fantasy.
Digital communities such as "The Afrofuturist Affair", "The Black Science Fiction Society" and "The Black Author Showcase" have sponsored online and offline activities to promote Black sci-fi and fantasy not only during October but throughout the year.
Black writers, artists, and filmmakers are gaining popularity as well as earning a few extra dollars. Book sales are low compared to urban romance and celebrity authors. But profitability is improving as more readers are exposed to Black sci-fi and fantasy. New titles are being published traditionally and independently.
Conventions and special events are drawing larger, multicultural audiences who are anxious to meet new writers and artists as well as pay homage to established Black Science Fiction icons such as Samuel Delany, Steven Barnes, Walter Mosley, and LaVar Burton. There are several well attended Black oriented comic book conventions such as the East Coast Black Age of Comics Convention in Philadelphia and ONYXCON in Atlanta.
According to public opinion and casual surveys at conferences and online, African Americans have moved beyond the desire to simply drink from a forbidden water fountain or live in a prestigious neighborhood outside of crowded urban centers; that was the past. People of African descent now can envision living on gravity-free space stations, traveling to distant planets or stars, building fantastic devices and molding new societies. Science and its literary kin, Speculative Fiction, is the catalyst for a dynamic and prosperous future.
Mae Jemison, the first African-American woman to become a U.S. astronaut is currently working on humanity's first starship. Her goal: "to help change the world by leading the effort to send and sustain humans in interstellar space travel within the next 100 years." It has taken NASA's Voyager spacecraft, the fastest man-made object to date, more than three decades just to penetrate the outer edge of the solar system to enter interstellar space. A conventional spaceship traveling to the nearest star, more than four light years away (25 trillion miles) would need 70,000 years to arrive at the destination. But the 100 Year Starship project is exploring techniques to reduce that travel time to a few decades or even hours.

Interstate 81 no longer looks like a parking lot. The highway is flowing again after two days worth of major back-ups and frustration. Work to fix a problem along the interstate shut down the southbound lanes in Roanoke and Montgomery County.
It created headaches for both businesses and residents especially after an accident on 460 near the Dixie Caverns area added to the backups
The major congestion along interstate 81 through Roanoke and Montgomery counties meant hours behind the wheel for thousands of drivers. For some it was a boost for business.
"We've gone through a lot of gas over that last two days, we have a delivery tonight, hopefully late tonight or early tomorrow morning. We've done a lot sales," convenience store cashier, Wendy Luxton told Your Hometown News Leader.
For others, it caused major inconveniences.
Donna Buckner, a Montgomery County resident said, "It's been horrible. I've had a lot of trouble getting out, I'm disabled. I've had a hard time getting to the store, and to the doctor. I had to postpone my doctors appointments until all this was over." "I'm so happy and I hope it never happens again."
But it wasn't only the residents who had to deal with backups for miles. Emergency crews had to get creative to make sure all emergency calls were handled efficiently.
Neal Turner, Montgomery County's Emergency Services Coordinator said "Certainly we were affected. The fire and rescue, the leaders, got together and said hey, look I need help from you to cover this part and I"ll cover this part for you."
It's that kind of coordination that allowed for timely responses, making sure no call went unanswered during the detours and back ups.
Luckily, the work only took two days. Two days too many, for those who live and work in the area.

Cameron gets it; Jowell doesn't
Iain Dale has the text of Cameron's New Year speech up. Quite rightly the media will be paying particular attention to this short but important little snippet:
'But let's make sure the election is a proper argument about the future of the country, not some exercise in fake dividing lines.'
Cameron recognises here what Tessa Jowell misses in her nonsense about 'hideous' 'class war' (reported on by Dave earlier). By playing the one nation card at this stage, he is effectively admitting the Tories are deeply rattled by the prospect of a Labour move towards a class-based electoral strategy.
He's seen the opinion polls, he's seen the financial context in which such a strategy might be implemented, and he's afraid.
Let's put aside for now the staggering hypocrisy of the leader of a party talking about parties coming together to 'sort out Britain's problems' after a 'good clean fight' when that same party has shown itself prepared, in its own electoral interests, both to talk down the currency and to talk up the prospect of a reduction in the sovereign credit rating and consequent worsened credit terms.
On the matter of electoral strategy, Cameron's dead right.
He knows that, if Labour gets it right and makes the right appeal about what it might mean to be a worker under a Tory government – whether you identify yourself as middle class worker, a working class worker, or a worker without the prospect of work – then the sheer numbers start to stack in Labour's favour.
Tessa Jowell and Jack Straw need to listen more to what Cameron is saying. On this matter, he's ahead of them.
December 27, 2009 at 10:48 pm
Reading that interview with Jowell in the Torygraph, she's under the impression that you can't have both – aspirations and anger about Tory plans to cut taxes for the wealthiest…

R-71 petitions on hold: Justice Kennedy halts release
Justice Anthony Kennedy of the U.S. Supreme Court has at least temporarily blocked release of petitions in support of putting Referendum 71 on the statewide ballot.
Kennedy, in a one-page order, agreed with the request of Protect Marriage Washington to "stay" or freeze, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling last Thursday that had cleared the way for releasing the petitions under terms of the state's broad public disclosure law. In so doing, Kennedy let stand the order of U.S. District Judge Benjamin Settle, who ruled in Tacoma last month against the scheduled release of the petitions by the Secretary of State.
Kennedy said his order remains in effect until further order of himself or the full high court. His ruling also would appear to dispose of the state's request of Thurston County Superior Court Judge Richard Hicks that the state be allowed to release the R-71 petitions to reflect the 9th Circuit's ruling.
Kennedy's ruling preserves the status quo — nondisclosure — while he reviews the matter and gives disclosure foes a chance to pursue their appeal.
Secretary Sam Reed and Attorney General Rob McKenna have supported release of initiative and referendum petitions under terms of the Public Records Act that state voters approved overwhelmingly in 1972. Petitions are the public's way to take part in a public process of citizen legislating, and are not akin to the private act of voting, they say.
"We continue to applaud the clear opinion of the 9th Circuit and will do our best to uphold the voters' desire for transparent and accountable government," Reed said. "We believe that it is sound policy to fight for our public disclosure "sunshine" laws."
R-71 asks voters whether they want to approve or reject Senate Bill 5688, the recently adopted expansion of the state's domestic partnership rights for registered partners. Some backers of the new law have sought to publicize the names of people to signed the petitions. Foes of the new law have said release could lead to harassment or injury to signers.
The election is underway. Many voters now have their ballots in hand and may begin voting right away if they wish.

I'm not sure what the problem is. All I can offer is the obvious suggestions.
copy the /etc and /usr/lib directories, and do a recursive diff.
Also - execute
sh -xv /etc/init.d/nfs start
(I'm not sure this will reveal anything. It's been a while since I used NFS.).
Make sure your NFS client has a mount point directory created. Are you
using automount? Or explicit mount configurations?
Do you get different results using the NFS client only, or server only?
Are you running the port mapper?

Sadly I have no recipe to share this Wednesday.
A little sports injury had me in "rest mode" for most of yesterday and all of today. I could complain about this, but it's really nothing major - and I'll be happily visiting my chiropractor tomorrow morning to get things sorted out. Apologies to you all for no new recipe, apologies to my two little pups who won't be getting a walk today, and apologies to Mister AtV who won't get to slow dance with me in the Kitchen (to my favorite 1940's jazz tunes) as per our usual Wednesday night tradition.
I did however manage to get out to my Farmers Market yesterday morning, and I brought my camera with me too! How about some pretty pictures?
I'd also like to say a special Thank You and hello to:
Pete at Willow Creek Farms for his beautiful Carrots (and carrot tops!),
Heather at Organic Matters Ranch for her gorgeous Romaine and Red leaf Lettuce,
and Mike at McIntosh Farm for his lovely Snow Peas.
All of which you will see in some of my upcoming recipes!
Support your local growers!
Puppies crashing my Farmers Market photoshoot...
Lucy knows a good carrot when she smells one.
Serious begging skills.
Hope you're all doing wonderfully, and Happy Summer!
See you back here on Friday with something new - I promise.

The head of Miami's Crime Stoppers program and former police chief will find out later this week whether he's headed to jail.
Officials said he ate a printed Crimestoppers tip rather than turn it over to a judge for examination.
"We promise the people who give us information to solve murders serious violent crimes in this community that they can call us the insurance that they will remain anonymous and that nothing about them and their information or whatever will be compromised. The case today started creeping into that first compromise. It's not going to happen on my watch and I understood the consequences," Richard Masten said.
The judge has given him until Thursday to reveal the information or face a contempt of court charge and two weeks in jail.

Book Review: Chronicles of the Host: Exile of Lucifer by D. Brian ShaferPosted by Camille at 7:57 AM Labels: Book Review
Chronicles of the Host: Exile of Lucifer by D. Brian Shafer
Rating: 3/5
If you are familiar with Christianity or Judaism you probably know the story of Lucifer/Satan/The Morning Star/The Anointed Cherub (or other names given to this biblical character), and the archangels Michael and Gabriel. Or perhaps you've seen various movies which talk about Satan in the biblical context like The Prophecy, The Ninth Gate or Dogma, etc.
I say all that to say, many are familiar with the basic story. Lucifer was a beloved angel living in Heaven with all the other angels until one day he got the idea that he wanted more power or to be as powerful as God. So he hatches a plan to gain control of Heaven, but surprise, surprise, the plan fails because, well, he was going up against God (remember he's all powerful and all knowing and all that). So he's kicked out of Heaven with his cohorts to reign terror and strife on earth. The end.
But this novel, tells the story from the viewpoint of the Angels. It gives us details about life in Heaven and what "really" went down with Lucifer being kicked out of heaven.
I found this novel rather intriguing (even though the writing at times is a bit flat and many one dimensional characters) because it's like reading a story you generally know, but with extra details, so it makes it a quick read and you're interested in how this author will spin things. I also liked that this novel wasn't all "preachy" about right and wrong and all that religion stuff (not that there's anything wrong with that, but just not my cup of tea).
So if you're a fan of angels, and want the back-story of what went down in Heaven, give it a go.
Oh yeah, do I even have to mention, this is fiction (for some reason I feel like I have too).

According to research conducted by the Education Commission of the States, children who have not grasped basic literacy concepts by kindergarten are less likely to be reading proficiently at the end of third grade. And those same third-graders in turn are four times more likely to drop out of high school. It is a downward spiral, as reading becomes more of a struggle and self-esteem suffers as a result.
Within very limited budgetary constraints, the Kittery School Department is trying to tackle this problem. Using federal Title 1 funds and a small amount of taxpayer money (the department's entire budget increased only 1.7 percent this fiscal year), the department this summer launched a pilot program called JumpStart. Some 15 children who will attend kindergarten this fall are going to Mitchell Primary School four hours a day, five days a week for seven weeks.
These kids have been identified as needing significant help. Many came into the program not knowing the alphabet or what individual letters sounded like. Some did not know what a circle was or how to stand in a line. Curriculum coordinator Marilyn Woodside said when such youngsters have entered kindergarten in the past, they were typically overwhelmed by the disparity between them and their more literate classmates. Through JumpStart, that gap will narrow significantly for youngsters coming to school this fall. Moreover, the school department is working to ensure these future third-graders are on track for the rest of their education.
The school department hopes to incorporate JumpStart funding permanently into the school budget starting next year. Woodside said she anticipates most of the money will come from federal education funding, but there will remain a taxpayer component — as there should be. Dollars spent wisely now will pay off handsomely for the students, and the residents of Kittery, well into the future.

CINCINNATI -- Energy conservation efforts focused on refrigeration have helped Kroger Co. here save more than $500,000 in electricity costs at approximately 80 stores in the Dallas Kroger Marketing Area during the first half of 1997. Lowering of head pressures on refrigeration compressors has been the key element in reducing electricity costs, said Keith Oliver, manager and facility engineer for the Dallas KMA, based in Keller, Texas. Refrigeration typically accounts for 50% of electricity ...

Plenty of people are now using both Facebook and Google to manage their contact list, but unfortunately it is has not been easy to get your friends contact data out of Facebook for use in other contact lists. Now thanks to a Greasemonkey script which is appropriately called Export Facebook Phonebook you will be able to export your Facebook Phonebook and then merge that data with your Google Contacts.
To begin, you will first need to be using Firefox as well as Greasemonkey. For those unfamiliar with Greasemonkey, in short it "allows you to customize the way a webpage displays using small bits of JavaScript." If you have not already been using Greasemonkey, you may want to check out what is available, there are a bunch of good scripts that make a wide variety of websites much more useful.
Anyway, getting back to exporting your Facebook Phonebook, what you will need to do is first make sure Greasemonkey is installed, and then (in Firefox) go to Tools -> Greasemonkey -> User Script Commands -> and then look for "Export Facebook Phonebook." From there the data will be exported into AddressBooker which then offers the option to add or merge those contacts with your Google Contacts.
Sure, it is not a quick and easy automated process, but still a very useful tool for anyone who primarily uses Google Contacts and does not want to have to move their Facebook contacts phone numbers on an individual basis.

Francis Alÿs: Guards
December 15, 2012–March 31, 2013
Belgian artist Francis Alÿs's video Guards (2005) documents sixty-four of the Queen of England's guards on a "walk" throughout the City of London. There is perhaps no more symbolically unemotional character than that of a bearskin-hat-wearing guard of the Queen of England. Yet even with no break in the guards' indifferent exterior, the tale still manages to be a powerful metaphor for the human condition. Many of the elements of Guards are found throughout Alÿs's work: walking, rhythm, the use of the street and bridges are all common tropes in his oeuvre. These strategies, evoking the poetic and sonic palette of the urban environment, involve a sometimes loose and other times overt relationship to social resistance and to the symbolic and often political implications of these actions.

BMC Buyout Official at $6.9 Billion
It's official, the world has another large private-equity buyout.
BMC Software, battling activists at Elliott Management for the past year, is being sold to a club of private-equity firms for $6.9 billion. The long expected deal was reported by WSJ on Sunday as being done, though the price hadn't yet been learned.
Bain Capital, Golden Gate Capital, GIC Special Investment and Insight Venture Partners are collectively paying a price of $46.25 a share, about 14% above the price before Elliott first unveiled its position last May and began pushing for board changes.
In a statement, Elliott's Jesse Cohn, the portfolio manager who has become a tough activist in tech companies, applauded the deal and called it a "substantial premium."
The deal includes a 30-day go-shop period, even after a private-equity private auction that saw KKR and TPG both also look before falling out.
Mizuho analysts said the price was "in line" with their expectations and that they don't expect any other bidders given the auction that had already happened. The analysts also said BMC should operate better in private.
The buyout will add to the hot start for private-equity deals in 2013, pushing total volume of private-equity purchases to $88.2 billion according to Dealogic. That would be the best start since the boom-ending 2007, when $242.7 billion in deals were done by this point.
BMC is the year's third-biggest buyout, trailing the Heinz buyout by 3G Capital and Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway and the Dell take private by Michael Dell and Silver Lake, according to Dealogic.
Morgan Stanley and Bank of America-Merrill Lynch were the bankers to BMC while Qatalyst Partners, Credit Suisse, RBC Capital Markets and Barclays represented the buyout group. Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz were the legal team for BMC while Kirkland & Ellis advised the entire buyout group. Sidley Austin LLP advised GIC, the Singapore sovereign wealth fund, while Willkie Farr & Gallager advised Insight Venture Partners.

Ketchikan (6 hours) – You can walk to Creek Street and see the stores and finish up with a Lumberjack show. We chose the one that finishes 15 minutes before sailing (do not worry about being left – the show is 5 minutes from ship, this is the show that HAL excursion uses, and the line to board was 15 minutes long).
Sitka (Tender, 8 hours) – HAL was only ship in port. With 4 lifeboats doing the tender the lines moved quickly. My suggestion - see the National Park (Totem Poles) and tour the unique stores in this port. National Park is ½ hour walk from tender spot so I would walk here first – then work your way back to town and tender spot.
Victoria (6 hours) – I thought this would be a wasted port with it being the last night and it being 6 – midnight. Ship moves early dinner up 45 minutes so we were ready to go ashore by 7 PM. 30-minute walk and you are downtown on a Saturday night with a lot of locals. After 2-3 hours looking around make your way back to the ship with time to spare. Join the masses on Lido for a snack and then pack your bags and place them outside the cabin by midnight.

a1 Thomas W. Zeiler is a lecturer in history at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
In his efforts to secure passage of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, John F. Kennedy had to placate not only oil and coal interests at home, but also traditional trade partners like Venezuela abroad, and he also had to foster the broad national security aim of retaining domestic oil reserves. This article argues that Kennedy was able to utilize a fair trade doctrine to gain enactment of legislation that would both lower trade barriers and assist domestic producers hurt by increased imports.

Welcome to Gainesville, Florida Wedding Vendors!
Home of University of Florida, lots of young fresh talent and oodles of vendors! This area has caterers that run the gamut from BBQ and smoked meat done on the scene to filet mignon and white glove service.
Venues range from botanical gardens to beautiful rustic barns to gorgeous golf courses to historic bed and breakfasts. As with any community the best thing you can do for yourself to create an elegant wedding is to rely on the professionals to lead you in the right direction for the type of wedding you imagine. Gainesville is a tight friendly and welcoming community where all the vendors know each other and work as a team to create your dream wedding. Since the area is not a big city services are relatively inexpensive.

Nick Mallett has confirmed he had been sounded out as a candidate to succeed Martin Johnson as England rugby coach, but ruled out taking on the role.
"I have decided that I will not be making myself available for the position and I have disclosed this to the RFU (England's Rugby Football Union),'' Mallett said in a statement.
Former South African and Italian boss Mallett revealed he had been approached about the possibility of taking charge of England should Johnson, who resigned on Wednesday, quit his post.
Johnson stepped down as England team manager following a disappointing World Cup campaign where the side failed to achieve their minimum objective of reaching the semi-finals - they lost in the last eight to France.
England's on-field form, which was mediocre at best, was overshadowed by a series of embarrassing off-field incidents in New Zealand including a now notorious drunken night out in Queenstown.
Mallett, born in England and long touted as a Red Rose coach, formally ruled himself out of the running to replace 2003 World Cup-winning captain Johnson in a statement.
"I would like to lay to rest the speculation linking me to the now-vacant England rugby coaching position,'' said Mallett, who stepped down as Italian coach after the World Cup.
"I had previously expressed my interest in the position publicly and was interested to hear what RFU representatives had to say.
"After mulling it over for a few days and discussing the opportunity with close friends and family, I have decided that I will not be making myself available for the position and I have disclosed this to the RFU.
Johnson told a Twickenham news conference today he would not be renewing his contract at the end of December.
"It's not a decision I have come to quickly or easily, but I just think it's the right decision at this time,'' Johnson said.
"The off-field things during the World Cup didn't help. We gave people the opportunity to report on us as they did. But it's not a kneejerk reaction,'' Johnson said.

The Maple Leafs believe they have the ability to block any team from moving into their area, but the NHL says otherwise.
If NHL owner-in-waiting Graeme Roustan gets his 20,000-seat rink built in suburban Toronto (which he will) and the league someday sees fit to put a team there through relocation or expansion (which it will), you can bet there will be howls of protest from the Toronto Maple Leafs.

NEW DELHI: Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi's much-anticipated central role in BJP is set to take shape next month. However, despite the rising chorus, the party is unlikely to project him as the prime ministerial candidate at least until the assembly polls in Karnataka is over.
Narendra Modi, along with his Madhya Pradesh counterpart Shivraj Singh Chauhan, is likely to be inducted into the BJP's parliamentary board, said a senior leader, who did not wish to be named. The time is not ripe for projecting Narendra Modi because of the party's Bihar-based ally JD(U)'s stated opposition to his candidature, the leader said, adding that another reason was the impending elections in Karnataka, where the party is likely to fare poorly.

- Daring Fireball: "Manual computers, like the Mac and Windows PCs, will slowly shift from the standard to the niche, something of interest only to experts and enthusiasts and developers."
- Popsci: "The iPad, then, is a transition to a future when, in Apple's mind, multitouch is so good that we no longer need anything but a screen."
- Daniel Tenner: "In short, most people don't really need a proper computer at all. And they mostly don't want one. Many people spend all day working in front of a computer, and they simply don't like the idea of coming home to yet another computer that looks just like the one they use at work."
- Stevenf.com: "The iPad as a particular device is not necessarily the future of computing. But as an ideology, I think it just might be." Old-world computing equals PCs and Mac with full access and filesystem, New-World Computing is a closed ecosystem with all kinds of abstractions.
- Alex Payne: "The iPad is an attractive, thoughtfully designed, deeply cynical thing. It is a digital consumption machine."
- Peter Kirn: "To put it briefly, I think the new, mobile Apple is doing immense harm to the computing legacy the company has forged… It's a blow to open source alternatives, but also to open development in general: the power of interchangeable hardware and software, on which everything we do with music and visuals on computers is based."
Again, media consumption will change even faster than we thought. The iPad is not a Wifi-Extension for some Library on some home PC, it IS the library, may it be local or in the cloud. IP broadcasting and on-demand is even more mandatory after this release, and the prospect of the future of general-purpose computing as pointed out in those articles.

Shaking off cutesy for dour, Audrey Tautou plays the title role in "Thérèse," a woman fumbling to free herself from an unfulfilled marriage. It's a welcome but not entirely successful change of pace for the French star, who's best known for frothier fare.
The final film of Claude Miller, who died last year, is a handsome and quietly affecting -- if at times frustrating -- adaptation of Nobel laureate François Mauriac's 1927 novel "Thérèse Desqueyroux" (a 1962 version starred Emmanuelle Riva). Mauriac was a tireless chronicler of the landed bourgeoisie of Bordeaux, and the movie's chief concerns are property and propriety, and their constraining effects on a woman with "too many ideas" for her provincial surroundings.
When the rarely smiling Thérèse is about to marry the simple, conventional Bernard (Gilles Lellouche, excellent), she acknowledges that the pine-filled acres to which they're each heir are a key element of the union. Yet it's not strictly an arrangement; however mismatched they are, there's a spark of feeling between them, one that will reignite, with profound understatement, years later. By then, having hoped in vain that marriage would provide a sense of order for her chaotic surfeit of thoughts, Thérèse has committed a shocking act.
Just as there's nothing sentimental about the central character, Miller's film is a work of emotional reserve, eschewing psychological explanation in favor of unadorned observation -- of human behavior as well as nature and the still lifes of the domestic world. In Thérèse's lifelong friendship with Bernard's sister (Anaïs Demoustier), the movie touches on ways women betray one another, and themselves, to preserve custom.
Yet even given the character's extreme introspection and withdrawal, Tautou's performance is too often opaque; it's in Bernard's inept, earnest response to Thérèse that the film finds its pulse.

Report: No Proven Link Between Cancers, Ground Zero
A federal health agency said Tuesday there is not yet enough medical evidence to show that first responders to the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks are more likely to get cancer as a result of the time spent at the World Trade Center site. While controversial, the finding may be revised as more studies are done.
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health offered a summary of its report on a government website. The report states: "based on the scientific and medical findings in the peer-reviewed literature… insufficient evidence exists at this time to propose a rule to add cancer, or a certain type of cancer'' to the list of illnesses linked to working at Ground Zero.
The finding, rather than ending the debate about which illnesses can be blamed on Ground Zero exposure, will only increase the attention placed on any new scientific studies about cancer risk, particularly since the government's conclusions will help determine which cancer patients receive payments from a new victim compensation fund.
The law that created the new fund also required that the Institute provide periodic updates on whether scientific research has proven that work at Ground Zero led to an increased risk of developing cancer. Tuesday's summary marks the first such report.
The summary of the report issued by the Institute also notes that the agency will be monitoring any cancer reports issued by Mount Sinai, the New York City Fire Department, the World Trade Center Health Registry, or the New York State Health Department.


text: This curation by Ela Dutt signifies the moot point of the act of creation. It also leaves something to savour in the common thread that runs through it. In more ways than one it configures Anand Coomaraswamy's intention: "The artist, like a child, invents his own techniques as he goes along; nothing has been allowed to interfere with zest. The means are always adequate to the end in view: this end is not 'Art' with a capital A, on the one hand - nor, on the other, a merely pathological self-expression; not art intended to improve our minds, nor to provide for the artist himself an 'escape'; but without ulterior motives, truly innocent, like the creation of a universe."

Antonio Guerrero, the 19-year-old Milpitas resident arrested in connection with the fatal shooting last year of 18-year-old David Benavidez, pleaded guilty to the crime earlier this month.
Chuck Gillingham, a Santa Clara County deputy district attorney, said Guerrero pleaded involuntary manslaughter during a Nov. 1 court hearing at San Jose Hall of Justice.
"He's guilty," Gillingham said, adding Guerrero will serve 14 years in prison.
Guerrero's sentencing is scheduled Jan. 4.
On Oct. 15, 2011 at 1:08 a.m., Milpitas police officers responded to the 500 block of Heath Street on reports of a gunshot and a person down on the 400 block of Chestnut Avenue.
Officers found Benavidez, a Milpitas resident, had suffered a gunshot wound to the back of his head. The young father who worked at the Morrill Avenue Target store was pronounced deceased at the scene.
Within days of the shooting, Milpitas detectives developed information through witness interviews, recovered evidence and DNA testing conducted on that evidence that identified Guerrero as the suspect in
the shooting, according to police.
On Feb. 11, 2012, Gilroy Police Depart-ment officers arrested Guerrero in that city, booked on a single count of homicide.
Police later determined that on the night of the shooting, Guerrero was riding in the back seat of a 1996 Honda Accord with Benavidez in the front passenger seat as they headed toward a house party. Guerrero was allegedly in possession of a silver Smith & Wesson .
"The best evidence that we had was that this was an accidental shooting," Gillingham said, adding the suspect had been putting the handgun inside his waistband and pulling it out again. "It was not an intentional killing."

This past Friday, GQ Magazine revealed that Kanye West is the new artist to grace the cover of their latest issue which is on newsstands now. Below, read an excerpt from the interview.
Kanye West has been married for ten days, and he has that new-husband way with the ring still, pulling it on and off like it's something he might yet undo, or do again. The ring is gold, and understated in a way that not much else about Kanye West is. He sits in the lobby of New York's Mercer Hotel—the same hotel where he and Jay Z recorded most of Watch the Throne—reflecting on the distance he's come. "I am a black American male from Chicago," West says, "who had my rehearsal dinner at Versailles and then got married in Florence with a view of the entire city."
He is one year removed from Yeezus, the record that took all of West's prodigious pop gifts and made a show of immolating them one by one. He is one year removed from telling anyone who'd listen that he was going to burn the entire fashion industry down, or at least he would once they let him through the door. Now they kind of have: He's got a capsule collection with A.P.C. out now; a line with Adidas that debuts with footwear this fall; and somewhere off in the distance, a new menswear line. He's also got a new record—maybe even a full-on pop record, though he hasn't decided yet. He knows he is no longer the most popular man in rap. "Currently that spot is taken," West says. "Let's be honest—he got last summer."

Definition of nonplussed in English:
1So surprised and confused that one is unsure how to react: Henry looked completely nonplussed
More example sentences
- The Chief continues to act confused, nonplussed and bewildered but after giving the matter some serious thought, he suddenly remembers the details of a conversation he once had with the Apache.
- I was somewhat nonplussed and ended up saying 'I'm rather surprised they even felt the need to ask.'
- When, the night of his gig, the emcee announced 'Here's Rodney Dangerfield,' a somewhat nonplussed audience looked at him with confusion.
2North American informal Not disconcerted; unperturbed.
Example sentences
- Felix is nonplussed by the pills, but others are less thrilled about the daily regime.
- But he remained nonplussed in the face of his wife's cynicism.
- 'No, thank you,' I replied, to all appearances nonplussed but inwardly raging.
In standard use nonplussed means 'surprised and confused', as in she was nonplussed at his eagerness to help out. In North American English a new use has developed in recent years, meaning 'unperturbed'—more or less the opposite of its traditional meaning—as in he was clearly trying to appear nonplussed. This new use probably arose on the assumption that non- was the normal negative prefix and must therefore have a negative meaning. It is not considered part of standard English.

Microsoft boasted tvishis week about the progress it's made with Windows Vista drivers – 100 days after the operating system was released to consumers. Businesses, of course, have been able to get their hands on Vista since the end of last year, but few upgraded immediately.
Nearly six months on from the release of the business versions of Vista, many companies are still unsure whether the operating system, or their installed hardware and software, is ready.
To address these questions, we spoke with David Cottingham, a Vista specialist at technology and services provider CDW.
CDW recently conducted a survey of 761 IT decision-makers, asking if and when they plan to adopt Vista. More than 85 percent said they expect to adopt Vista, with 20 percent saying they aim to deploy it by the end of 2007.
Cottingham says Vista in many cases will require "a major forklift upgrade". Therefore, he recommends that IT departments that aren't in the budgeting or testing phase start this process now.
"Vista, more than anything else, is about having a good plan," he says. Here are six questions to consider as you venture into Vista.
1. Are your vendors and application developers ready for Vista?
The first thing to check should be where third-party software vendors stand with Vista compatibility. While Microsoft offers compatibility information for mainstream applications, Cottingham says now is the time for IT to speak with security and custom applications vendors to ensure that they are going to support Vista in a timely fashion. "You want to find out if your partners are ready for this change," he says.
In fact, in the CDW survey, 26 percent of respondents said they were worried that there would not be compatibility for Vista with their current security and antivirus software vendors. Another 10 percent said they were concerned that they would need to make a bigger investment in new licensing.
Cottingham acknowledges that in some cases, you will need to budget for application development or licensing to get your mission-critical applications to be Vista-compatible.
2. What is the state of your laptops and desktops?
You'll want to consider the PC upgrades you'll need. "You want to future-proof yourself. Make sure that the incremental hardware purchases you're making now will work for widespread Vista adoption," Cottingham says.
As a general rule, he says IT departments should plan that desktops and notebooks older than 18 to 24 months will not be migrated to Vista. "The normal replacement cycle for a notebook is 36 months, so it's not cost-effective to go back and retrofit that machine," he says.
In the CDW survey, 51 percent of the respondents said that at least half of their organisation's hardware will require upgrading or replacement to become Vista compatible.
Microsoft's Vista page and CDW's Vista page both have tools to test whether PCs are Vista-compliant or Vista-capable. You'll be able to establish baseline requirements in terms of CPU, memory and even graphics cards necessary to optimally run Vista.
3. What is the state of your enterprise at large?
What applications, hardware and peripherals are in use throughout your organisation? Are they Vista-ready? Chances are some aren't, and this is a good time to budget for replacements. "If there is no longer a driver for your user's old multifunction printer, this might be a good time to replace it," Cottingham says.
Organisations should do an inventory check of in-house and remote resources. Part of this can be done automatically using asset management tools that check computers as they come onto the network. IT departments should also send out a survey to users asking them what programs, PCs, printers, fax machines, routers, etc they use at home.
"You want to get a sense of what's out there and what you'll have to support," Cottingham says.
4. How well versed are your users?
A portion of your Vista budget should include training. However, it's impossible to know what your training needs will be without first seeing how users interact with the new operating system. Cottingham recommends creating a pilot group made up of a cross-section of users across all departments. This group should include both experienced and rookie users, as well as in-house, remote and mobile workers. Seeing what obstacles they run into will help you plot out training and help desk budgets.
5. Are you standardized?
Cottingham says this is the best time for companies to streamline their support of gear and applications and create configuration guidelines. By narrowing down the number of platforms, applications and devices that are supported, IT can cut help desk costs dramatically. Standardisation also helps users who are struggling to figure out what remote or home-office setups they should purchase.
Streamlining acceptable operating system and application configurations will go a long way toward keeping the cost of Vista upgrades in check. If you limit the feature sets that are turned on in the operating system as well as what applications can be loaded, you can lower the overall CPU and memory requirements.
"You don't have to turn on every bell and whistle that Vista has to offer," Cottingham says. Trimming the size of the operating system by turning off some features enables you to make do with the CPU and memory you already have on some machines. "Take time to really test-drive Vista to determine the feature sets you'll need," he says.
He also recommends using the information you gather from your automated inventory and user survey to determine which applications and devices are in common use and add those to your Vista compatibility check. "This is your chance to get in front of these applications before deployment," he says. IT groups can also figure out what applications can be phased out or retired.
6. What's your plan to avoid a technology pileup?
A final part of your budget should be allocated for the recovery and disposal of older gear. "Make sure you have a plan for bringing PCs back to IT and protecting company information," Cottingham says. All hard drives and storage devices should be centrally backed up and then wiped clean before disposal.
He adds that companies should consider a recycling programme. "The last thing you want are stacks and stacks of notebooks, desktops and other equipment. You need to take care of those items in a responsible way."
