Pat Howard: Youthful hope fades to disillusion as Catholic Church rejects change
When recently retired Erie Catholic Bishop Donald W. Trautman was first announced as the new shepherd of the Erie diocese in 1990, I used this platform to write him an open letter.
My missive cited some of the usual issues at the center of dissent in the American church and urged him to be a different, more open kind of bishop. And I described myself as standing "on the fringes of my church, not fully part of it nor willing to sever my ties."
What strikes me now about that exercise is the naivet� it reflected and the hope I clung to. But I was young then, not quite 30.
Trautman wasn't the bishop I wanted him to be, of course. And it's safe to say he didn't appreciate some of the press he got.
The low point came a little more than a decade later after the Boston Globe shattered the cover-up of the systematized sexual abuse of children in that diocese, and this newspaper began digging for whatever there was to find here. The resulting bad blood endured through the rest of Trautman's tenure.
I helped launch and oversee the investigation that produced a series of reports that constitute most of what the public learned about how children in this region were victimized and their attackers shielded over decades. I'm as proud of that work as any I've been part of in my career.
But it was also dispiriting for an already struggling Catholic. I remember clearly the resistance and resentment with which our reporters' inquiries were met by the local hierarchy and how little the suffering and scars of victims seemed to figure in its responses to the scandal.
In hindsight, that and the serial revelations of crimes and cover-ups throughout the church pretty much tore it for me. I found myself increasingly uncomfortable even at the fringes.
But in tracking and periodically opining on the sexual abuse scandal and subsequent rifts in the church, I still counted myself Catholic. There was more commentary than communion, sure, but it felt like fighting the good fight over something central to my experiences and identity from my earliest memories.
I wonder now whether I've been fooling myself. As I've followed the changing of the guard in the church, first locally and now globally, I can't get past how little it feels like anything to do with me.
The pending selection of a new pope to succeed Benedict XVI, like last fall's installation of new Erie Bishop Lawrence T. Persico, triggers a professional instinct to observe and analyze more than any personal sense of spiritual or institutional possibility. That surprises and unsettles me, but it's pointless to pretend otherwise.
If I really am making my way toward the exit, one of the busiest doors in today's church, I understand that's of no consequence to less conflicted church members who would advise not letting that door hit my backside on the way out. Strictly speaking, church teachings make no provisions for cafeteria Catholics.
Still, there are a lot of us who on some issues -- the place of women in the church, for example, or the moral stature of gay people in general -- can't square our consciences with church orthodoxy or at least believe such differences should be discussed openly within the church. Some of those people are harder to write off than I am.
A new Pew Research Center poll asked American Catholics two open-ended questions: What's the most important problem facing the Catholic Church today, and what's the most important way the church helps society?
The top answer to the first, by far, was the sexual abuse scandal. The leading response to the second, also by a wide margin, was helping the poor, sick and needy.
The former brings to mind the priests who preyed under the cover of the collar and the bishops and cardinals who enabled and concealed their crimes. The latter brings to mind, to my mind at least, the nuns who take the love and mercy of the Gospels to the least of our brothers and sisters wherever they are to be found.
But Pope Benedict's Vatican labeled the good sisters of America as part of the problem because, among other things, they're too willing to entertain questions and views the hierarchy has declared to be verboten. They're too open to engaging the real lives, moral qualms and evolving understanding of people in the modern world, in other words, the way an ingenuous young columnist hoped a new bishop would 23 years ago.
I still believe the church will change in due course, and even the younger me understood such things happen in their own time. What I underestimated was the weariness that comes with the waiting.

Heather Pesanti, who joined the Albright-Knox Art Gallery staff as a curator in 2008, will leave the gallery on Friday to work with former Albright-Knox director Louis Grachos in Austin, Texas.
Pesanti will serve as a senior curator under Grachos at the newly formed institution AMOA/Arthouse, where Grachos started as director this month.
"Buffalo has been amazing to me, but I'm very excited for this new chapter in my life," Pesanti wrote in an email. "[It] should be a great adventure."
In her time at the Albright-Knox, Pesanti put her stamp on many ambitious and popular exhibitions. Her largest and most lauded achievement was the 2012 show "Wish You Were Here: The Buffalo Avant-garde in the 1970s."
She began working on the exhibition even before she arrived in Buffalo and spent months digging through the archives of Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center, CEPA Gallery and other local institutions. Her exhibition catalog for the show serves as a compact compendium of one of the most important periods in Western New York's artistic history.
"There were several things that happened here [that] nobody talks about having happened in Buffalo," Pesanti told The News at the time of the show's opening. "One of my big questions for this whole [catalog] and show was, 'Why did it happen here?' And I think, with any big thing that happens, there are so many reasons. It's like alchemy."
Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center curator John Massier praised Pesanti for her work on the regionwide biennial Beyond/In Western New York and for the energy and new perspective she brought to Western New York when she arrived from Pittsburgh's Carnegie Museum of Art in 2008.
"Heather definitely hit the ground running after arriving in Buffalo and enthusiastically plunged with the rest of us local curators into the third edition of Beyond/In Western New York," Massier wrote in an email. "Her big show, 'Wish You Were Here,' will remain a huge part of local art history for reminding our community of the dynamic roots of the Buffalo avant garde."
Pesanti, as one of three main curators at the Albright-Knox, also organized many exhibitions from the gallery's collection, such as the sprawling "Surveyor" in 2011, and oversaw the gallery's first "Artist in Depth" exhibition, which explored the careers of Picasso, Braque and Delaunay. In addition, Pesanti oversaw the installation of pieces like Nancy Rubins' canoe sculpture outside the Elmwood Avenue entrance of the gallery and fostered many new acquisitions.
Beyond that, she was a frequent lecturer in the University at Buffalo's visual studies department and served as a guest judge and curator for several local exhibitions outside the Albright-Knox.

In 1978, a group of students from the University of New Hampshire's Whittemore School of Business and Economics (now The Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics) identified a need to recognize hospitality and tourism students for outstanding academic achievement, meritorious service and demonstrated professionalism.
At that time, honor societies existed for other disciplines, but not for the field of study serving one of the world's largest industries.
As a special project, the students researched and evaluated a variety of options for fulfilling this need. The end result was the establishment of the first chapter of Eta Sigma Delta International Hospitality Management Society. Today, there are over 90 active Eta Sigma Delta chapters throughout the world. The growth is testament to the dedication of both students and professionals in hospitality and tourism to the pursuit of academic, professional and personal excellence.The guidance and support of International CHRIE has made it possible for ESD to grow. It is the intent that this Society will lead hospitality and tourism educators and professionals to the highest levels of professionalism and achievement.
The professional benefits of Eta Sigma Delta include an opportunity for outstanding students to distinguish themselves in the eyes of educators, recruiters and industry executives in an increasingly competitive industry. In addition, ESD provides a networking system through their...

The state Board of Land and Natural Resources has reaffirmed its approval of a key permit for a controversial solar telescope to be built atop Haleakala, essentially giving the University of Hawaii the green light to proceed with the $300 million project.
On Friday, the board ruled in a contested case hearing dating back to December 2010, when the body approved a conservation district use permit for the project. That decision was challenged by Kilakila O Haleakala, which objected to the project's impacts to cultural and environmental resources.
The board said in its decision that the proposed Advanced Technology Solar Telescope - a joint project of the University of Hawaii and the National Science Foundation - is consistent with uses allowed in the state's conservation district.
"The proposed land use, when considered together with all minimization and mitigation commitments . . . will not cause substantial adverse impact to existing resources within the surrounding area, community or region," the board said in its 96-page findings of fact, conclusions of law, decision and order in the contested case. "The project is designed to protect public health, safety and welfare by providing scientific data that will assist in learning more about the sun's effects on our atmosphere and environment."
Attorneys with the Native Hawaiian Legal Corp., which represents Kilakila O Haleakala, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Kiope Raymond, Kilakila O Haleakala's president and an associate professor of Hawaiian studies at the Telescope University of Hawaii Maui College, said that he wasn't aware of the decision when reached Tuesday. He referred comment to the Native Hawaiian Legal Corp.
The telescope facility, which will stretch 14-stories high, is to be built in the 18-acre Haleakala High Altitude Observatories site, otherwise known as Science City.
It's unclear when construction could start, but University of Hawaii System President M.R.C. Greenwood said in a statement that UH "is eager to move this $300-million project forward. The Advanced Technology Solar Telescope is important both to the scientific community and to Hawaii's economy."
The land board's order said the main adverse impacts of the project are those to cultural resources, endangered flora and fauna and to view planes, but it noted that "specific measures have been proposed to mitigate these impacts."
"When considered with the minimization and mitigation measure commitments, the effect of the (solar telescope) project on the resources will be either minimal, temporary or both, with the exception of effects to visual resources and cultural practices," the order said.
One of 20 conditions attached to the order stipulates that within two years of the facility being completed, Kilakila O Haleakala may require a third ahu (altar or shrine) be built at Science City "to provide an additional location for practitioners to conduct cultural practices."
(In recognition of the cultural importance of Haleakala, Native Hawaiian stonemasons erected a west- and east-facing ahu for ceremonial use in 2005 and 2006 within the Haleakala High Altitude Observatories.)
That condition was to help address the fact that the telescope facility will be approximately 90 feet from the east-facing ahu. The land board noted that during construction, the project would create intermittent sound impacts to the ceremonial area, and that during operation, the project "could increase the amount of ambient noise that is perceived at the ahu."
The board said the adverse impacts to view planes will be mitigated through the selected site location within Science City and "the periodic evaluation of exterior paint options that could make the ATST less noticeable."
It went on to say that the telescope project "will be larger than the facilities currently located in the (observatories) site . . . However, it will be just one of 11 such facilities. . . . From a distance, the (project) will be indistinguishable from the other facilities."
Another condition requires the University of Hawaii to follow through with establishing a Native Hawaiian working group, retaining a cultural specialist and reserving up to 2 percent of the facility's total usage time for Native Hawaiian scientists, when there are Native Hawaiians among the pool of qualified scientists.
The university also will be required to provide written annual reports to the land board on its status of implementing mitigation commitments and other promises.
The board's decision echoes recommendations by two hearings officers appointed in the case.
However, the original hearings officer was ultimately dismissed earlier this year, and his report tossed out, because of inappropriate communications between university officials and U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye's office regarding the project's status.
A second officer resigned amid conflict of interest concerns because she represents Greenwood as her personal attorney. A third hearings officer issued his report in July, recommending that UH be able to keep the conservation district permit.
Kilakila O Haleakala has challenged the project in court. The Hawaii Supreme Court on Tuesday said it will take up the organization's request filed in September to review an earlier decision issued by the Intermediate Court of Appeals. The case will be scheduled for oral argument before the high court.

A cool-headed clerk at a South Buffalo convenience store knocked a pellet pistol out of a would-be robber's hand and detained the thwarted thief until police arrived, according to a Buffalo police report.
A male clerk was working in the 7-11 at 975 Abbott Road, near Kimberly Avenue, on Friday when a woman entered the store, displayed a handgun and said, "Give me all the money."
The clerk slapped the weapon from the woman's hand and restrained her until South district officers showed up to arrest her. Pamela Giambelluca, 26, of South Park Avenue, is charged with first-degree robbery.
A 7-11 employee told The News today that any comment on the incident would have to come from corporate headquarters.

The $3,000 raised to buy back an original frosted gaslight for the Buffalo Central Terminal this week was a noble gesture.
But so much more is needed, because maintenance no longer can be deferred, longtime volunteers say.
The Art Deco train station's vaulted roof is leaking water onto the concourse tiles and urgently needs to be replaced. The price tag? About $800,000, including $160,000 for the most pressing needs.
The 17-story tower that stands sentry above the Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood also requires significant roof work and masonry repairs at a cost of about $3 million.
Is there enough money to prevent the East Side landmark from falling into further disrepair, let alone the $50 million to $100 million it would cost to restore it?
Government and philanthropic organizations have yet to write checks in the magnitude needed to ensure the future of a building in one of Buffalo's poorest neighborhoods. And it still remains to be seen whether a developer will decide to roll the dice.
So, while other historic sites have attracted public and private donations toward restoration to their former glory – the Darwin Martin House, Richardson Olmsted Complex and Hotel @ the Lafayette, among them – the 523,000-square-foot landmark remains something a stepchild.
In May, the John R. Oishei Foundation turned down a $2.5 million grant request for the tower and roof repairs. The reason? Too few public dollars going toward a project of such a large scale, and a neighborhood considered too poverty-stricken and lacking in assets to build on.
"The Central Terminal is probably bigger than just about any other project in terms of what needs to happen here," said Paul Hogan, Oishei's vice president. "There was not a whole lot of confidence that the money needed to do that was there in the short term, and nothing we would have given them would have been nearly enough to make this happen."
The Oishei Foundation did give $15,000 in 2011 to fund a three-acre sustainable natural habitat outside the station. It also provides money to the Hope Center and other Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood organizations.
"I can't in good conscience put $2.5 million into the Central Terminal on the possibility of an eight- or 10-year turnaround. I'm obligated to put it into the immediate needs of that neighborhood," Hogan said.
The complex is at a critical juncture, members of the Central Terminal Restoration Corp. say, but they feel the nearly all-volunteer organization is making major strides.
The building drew raves during the October 2011 National Preservation Conference in Buffalo. A master plan last year laid out a vision for the building's future.
A re-energized board – with added expertise in engineering, historic tax credits and commercial real estate development – and a new executive director, Marilyn Rodgers, are working to execute it. Rodgers, the first paid staff member in the group's 15-year history, was hired with the help of an $85,000 grant from the Margaret L. Wendt Foundation.
"It's reached a critical point where they've accomplished a great deal, they have real traction, the site has improved, and through the years they've added more and more," said Wendt Trustee Robert J. Kresse.
Kresse shared Hogan's perspective on why more dollars haven't come to the Central Terminal: "It's a tremendous lift – comparable in size to the Richardson Olmsted Complex. Also, I think the neighborhood is a factor, in that you're not investing in prime real estate, and there's not an immediate use for the building."
But Kresse emphasized how much he has admired the work of the volunteers in stabilizing and reopening the cavernous building, which saw the last Amtrak train leave in 1979.
The station opened in June 1929, four months before the stock market crash that brought the Depression. The Central Terminal Restoration Corp. bought the building for $1 in 1997. By that time all of the building's ornamentation had been stripped by a previous owner and vandals.
After decades of being closed to the public, the terminal reopened for tours and special events in 2003. In 2010, the terminal's board released a plan that envisions loft-style apartments in the tower, a green business incubator in the baggage room and public space in the concourse. The plan also called for the resumption of train service, which the state Department of Transportation has rejected.
Last week, roofers walked out on the cement tiles covering the concourse, five stories above ground, to determine the extent of damage and plot an action plan.
Contractor Chris Ziolkowski said water has rolled into the corners of the roof, between the roofing and the concrete deck, disrupting the unheated concourse's tiles through cycles of freezing and thawing. Stopping the water's infiltration and preventing further damage to the tiles, he said, needs to be the first priority.
Eric Lander, the newest board member, who has commercial real estate experience, said he's optimistic about the terminal's future. He anticipates that there will eventually be low- to moderate income housing in the tower. "If we transformed that tower into 100 units, we could probably fill it up with a bunch of 20-year-olds right away. It's not going to be the people working at the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus – but that's what we have to determine, what the niche of this building is going to be, and where we should move forward," Lander said.
There are grants to help restore the two marquee-like canopies outside the building. A 50,000-watt solar heating system is being considered.
An Adopt-A-Tile Roof Campaign has begun to raise funds for the 13,000 roof tiles that would be replaced in the final phase of the roof repair. Creating a Center for Restorative Arts and Sciences involving schools and businesses is being discussed.
A grant was obtained to study what it would take to restore the concourse to its 1929 shape.
The volunteers aren't sitting around waiting for deep-pocketed philanthropic groups or government agencies to open their checkbooks.
"We can't wait for the building to get like Bethlehem Steel [Administration Building]," said Jeff Ingersoll, a board member who restored the four clocks with nine-foot dials more than 10 years ago. "There is a very big sense of urgency. We don't have decades for a developer to come along."
What the Central Terminal does have, he said, are people on its side – whether it's the more than 100 people who chipped in to buy the sconce, or the hundreds, skilled and unskilled, who have volunteered to save the sprawling complex.
"The Central Terminal has been called one of Buffalo's most loved buildings," Ingersoll said.

After months of ups and downs, Khloé Kardashian has finally decided to end her marriage to Lamar Odom, a source confirms to PEOPLE.
"It was a recent decision," says a source close to the couple. "She's been holding out hope but she has to look out for herself."
TMZ reports the divorce filing will happen Friday.
Although divorce at times seemed "unavoidable," Kardashian and Odom, who wed in September of 2009, had been trying to work through recent problems stemming from Odom's past drug abuse and other issues.
In November, a source told PEOPLE they "have been going to couples therapy." Things looked hopeful for the pair when Odom joined Kardashian's family at Kanye West's concert on Oct. 28.
But despite her best efforts, the source says of Kardashian, "She realized it's the best thing to move on."
On Wednesday, she was seen at the Hollywood Reporter's Women In Entertainment breakfast at the Beverly Hilton without her wedding ring. The source adds that not wearing her ring in public – or in private – "says a lot."

I received this as a gift from someone who knew I would be using cloth diapers. I am amazed by how well it works. It was recommended to me to use even less than the amount the package says, and I can get away with about 1/2 a tablespoon each load. Which means it will last for even more than the 50 loads advertised on the package. Diapers always come out nice and clean, smelling fresh (well, like nothing really), and we've had no problems with residue build up. (Posted on 7/13/10)Would you recommend this product to a friend?

Makes 8 sandwiches (4 servings)
I once multiplied this recipe to serve 100 at a summer garden party. With the food buffet-style, my guests assembled their own pita sandwiches stuffed with Ratatouille, shredded lettuce, and cheese.
If you're serving only a few, go ahead and make the entire recipe (which makes 6 cups) because leftover ratatouille is great to have on hand to serve later as a filling for omelets or crepes, as a topping for baked potatoes, or as an accompaniment for grilled fish or chicken.
For the filling
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup onion in 3/8-inch strips
1 eggplant (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 2-inch by 3/8-inch strips
1 zucchini, cut into 2-inch by 3/8-inch strips (about 2 cups)
2 cups green beans in 2-inch pieces (about 8 ounces)
½ green bell pepper, cut into 2-inch by 3/8-inch strips
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
One 15-ounce can tomato sauce, preferably chunky
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil or ½ teaspoon dried basil
2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano or ½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 large tomatoes, peeled and cut into ½-inch cubes
For the bread
Four 7-inch pita bread rounds, each cut to form 2 half-rounds
To complete the recipe
Finely shredded lettuce and shredded cheddar or Monterey jack cheese for garnishing
To make the ratatouille, heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium high heat. Add the onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until it is glossy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in the eggplant, zucchini, green beans, bell pepper, and garlic. Drizzle the vinegar over the vegetables. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. (Reduce the heat if the vegetables start to brown.)
Reduce the heat to low. Add the tomato sauce, sugar, dried basil and oregano (if using), pepper, and salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the green beans are tender, about 30 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the tomatoes and fresh basil and oregano (if using). Cover and let stand for about 30 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

The Earth is warming faster than it has in the past thousand years, hence the term global warming. But climate change is a better description than global warming, as some areas may, in fact, cool. It also describes other effects like rising sea levels and more extreme weather.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a greenhouse gas, as are methane, water vapour, nitrous oxide and ozone. The fundamental physics that links CO2 concentrations to temperature changes has been known since the late 19th century.
No: The 'greenhouse effect' is the way the atmosphere traps some of the energy we receive from the Sun (infrared radiation or heat, ultraviolet and visible light) and stops it being transmitted back out into space. Earth receives energy from the Sun and re-emits it back to space. The atmosphere traps some of the outgoing energy and warms Earth. This is known as the greenhouse effect. Without this natural greenhouse effect, Earth would be some 30 °C colder, and life as we know it would not be possible.
The problem is that scientists believe we are adding dangerously to the natural greenhouse effect with the gases from industry and agriculture. This traps more solar energy and increases the temperature.
There is little doubt, from the evidence so far, that there have been enormous changes in climate in the past. These ranged from a complete absence of ice over the Poles to ice sheets extending across much of Europe, Asia and North America. The last major extension of polar ice retreated only 10,000 years ago.
Global average temperature 1850-2009, 2000s are warmest decade so far Earth is warming. Over the last 100 years Earth has warmed by about 0.75 °C.
Natural sources, such as tree rings and glaciers, as well as human records, show that climate has changed significantly over the past few hundred years. There was a relatively warm period in Europe during the 14th century, followed by a quite sudden change to cooler conditions in the 15th century. This extended into the Little Ice Age of the 17th and 18th centuries, followed by a warming trend that has recently accelerated. The evidence for this recent warming comes largely from direct measurements of temperature. In the more temperate northern latitudes, winters are less severe than 30 years ago, with cold snaps generally being short-lived.
The ten warmest years on record have occurred since 1998 (as of July 2011). 2010 saw a relatively strong La Niña, but globally was still one of the warmest years on record.
Records of past variations in CO2 concentrations from ice core records The scientific consensus states that it is very likely that most of the warming over the last 50 years is a result of greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activity.
The exchange of 'man-made' carbon dioxide between man-made emissions, atmosphere, ocean and land, is about 7 GtC/year (billion tons of carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, per year), which also shows much larger natural exchanges between atmosphere and ocean (about 90 GtC/yr) and atmosphere and land (about 60 GtC/yr). However, these natural exchanges have been in balance for many thousands of years, leading to the pre-industrial concentration of CO2 remaining steady at about 280 ppm.
CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere are rising. They have increased by about 38% since industrialisation began, from 280 ppm (parts per million) to 387 ppm. Two-thirds of that increase has occurred in the last 50 years. CO2 levels are now 30% higher than at any time over at least the last 800,000 years.
Past, current and future changes in temperature relative to 2000 This is the fundamental difference between weather and climate. Even in a warming climate we will still get individual weather systems which will bring 'miserable' weather. Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations will mean an upward trend in temperatures. However, natural variability in the climate means that not every year will necessarily be warmer than the last, with some years being cooler and others warmer.
There is indisputable evidence that the climate is changing. The average global surface temperature has risen by 0.6 °C in the past 140 years. Globally, nine out of the ten hottest years ever recorded have occurred since 1990. Here in the UK, four out of five of the hottest years ever recorded over a 330-year period have occurred since then.
A research project, carried out by Met Office and the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, looked at extreme flooding in October and November 2000. It concluded that, though the events were extreme, they could not in themselves be attributed to climate change. However, heavy rainfall and peak river flows of similar duration have been increasing in frequency and magnitude over the past 50 years. This pattern is consistent with model predictions of how human-induced climate change affects rainfall.
Experts predict that fierce storms and floods, such as those that brought chaos to parts of the UK in October 2000, are likely to become more frequent in the future. Over the past 100 years, warming has been accompanied by a reduction in the frequency of frosts and an increase in the number of heatwaves in many parts of the world. The amount of rainfall is getting heavier in some countries in terms of volume per downpour.
Although they are made by the same sort of mathematical model, weather forecasts and climate predictions are really quite different. A weather forecast tells us what the weather (for example, temperature or rainfall) is going to be at a certain place and time over the next few days.
A climate prediction tells us about changes in the average climate, its variability and extremes. So, it might say that Somerset, in 40-60 years time, will have, on average 25% more rain in winter with three times the current number of heavy rainfall events. It does not forecast that it will be raining in Somerset on the morning of 15 October 2044.
The two major ice sheets are on Greenland and in the Antarctic. The Greenland Ice Sheet contains enough water to contribute about 7 m to sea level, and the West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS), which is the part of the Antarctic ice sheet most vulnerable to climate change, contains about 6 m.
A sustained rise in local temperatures of about 3 °C, equivalent to a global-mean warming of about 1.5 °C, which is likely to be reached by the end of the century if man-made emissions are not controlled, would melt the Greenland Ice Sheet, although it is estimated that this would take a few thousand years. A major collapse of the WAIS is thought to be very unlikely during the 21st century, although recent measurements suggest that contributions to sea-level rise from this source may be greater than previously estimated.
The impact of climate change - specifically global warming caused by the burning of fossil fuels - on tropical cyclone activity is the subject of ongoing debate and research in the scientific community. Although there is no clear consensus on whether global warming is currently having any measurable impact on tropical cyclones, climate models indicate that there may be an increase in tropical cyclone intensity in the future, while tropical cyclone frequency will either remain unchanged or decrease.

There will be winners as well as losers. Warmer weather would allow a longer growing season in temperate latitude and reduce the need for heating. However, reduced rainfall in tropical regions can lead to the expansion of deserts and rises in sea level would threaten low-lying coasts and islands.
On present evidence, global warming could be slowed if emissions of methane and carbon dioxide were reduced. The main artificial sources of these gases are (a) for methane - agriculture, emissions from landfill sites and natural gas and (b) for carbon dioxide - the burning of fossil fuels, cutting down and burning trees. This may seem to be something that only governments or large organisations can tackle, but the individual can also contribute significantly by, for example, not using a car unnecessarily and recycling.

Open source news this week: October 21 - October 25, 2013
Weekly wrap-up: Innovation Act could thwart patent trolls, open source needs more attorneys, and more
Open source news this week:
October 21 - October 25, 2013
What other open source-related news stories did you read about this week? Share them with us in the comments section. Follow us on Twitter where we share these stories in real time.
- Innovation Act could thwart patent trolls. A new patent reform bill introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives this week was called "the single most important patent reform or high tech bill this Congress considers" by cosponsor Rep. Lamar Smith. Called the Innovation Act of 2013, the bill is designed to prevent abusive patent troll litigation, reports the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). The proposal includes requiring patent holders to detail the parties that would benefit from the litigation, requiring the loser in a patent case to pay the winner's court fees, and more. The EFF outlines the key elements of the legislation, saying: "Taken together, these reforms would make life much harder for patent trolls and make the world safer for true innovators. Of course, today's discussion draft is not perfect."
- Your Honor, I'd like to defend open source. The legal complications that come along with open source software are creating a need for more tech savvy lawyers. During his opening remarks at LinuxCon Europe, Linux Foundation Executive Director Jim Zemlin talked about how the open source community would benefit from more attorneys who understand how open source collaboration works, reports infoworld.com. The article discusses how the standardization of things like contributor agreements could also help when licensing issues arise. It's a great read if you've ever struggled with open source-related legal issues.
- Presenting the new OSI director. The Open Software Initiative (OSI) announced this week that it hired its first-ever full-time management appointment in its 15-year history. Patrick Masson will begin serving as the general manager for the non-profit OSI on November 8. Masson spent 20 years in higher education, most recently serving as the chief technology officer for the University of Massachusetts' online learning provider, UmassOnline. OSI is the steward of the Open Source Definition (OSD) and the community-recognized body for reviewing and approving open source licenses. OSI board director Deborah Bryant said: "The hiring of a general manager signals the board's deep commitment carrying out the non-profit's mission."
- "More geeks in government." The open data movement in U.S. government is gaining more momentum. This week, The Guardian featured a column detailing different ways U.S. cities are using open data, saying: "Access to information is no longer a nice-to-have, rather it is a standard." In related news, a San Francisco Chronicle columnist detailed his experience this week with the city's SF311 mobile app, which allows users to quickly report improvements that may need to be made to their neighborhood, such as reporting graffiti and potholes. The article also pointed out the very cool motto of San Francisco's chief innovation officer Jay Nath: "More geeks in government." Meanwhile, three U.S. cities signed open data policies into law this week: Louisville, Kentucky; West Sacramento, California; and Oakland, California. The Sunlight Foundation has details on these latest cities to join the open data movement, as well as a map that shows other cities that have put open data policies to work.

Thomas Edison was a Patent Troll. If this bill becomes law, there will be damn few Edisons in the future. I'm an inventor and entrepreneur. So called Patent Trolls are essential to start up companies and innovation in general. Trolls help companies by converting an asset into cash that can be used to build products, extend markets and create new businesses. This function of Trolls also helps to drive valuations of start up companies and encourage investment into them because the investors can recoup losses by leveraging the patents in the event the company fails. If we damage this investor/inventor relationship any further, we will kill patents altogether.
Gosh, that's a lot of unsupported assertions. All of which also seem to be false.
Thomas Edison was an unscrupulous man, to be sure, and certainly not the lone genius of mythology. But he and the lab he managed developed many real technologies from idea to usable device; he was no patent troll.
So called Patent Trolls are essential to nothing; they are a hindrance to start up companies and innovation in general. They take advantage of the fact that the modern patent process, particularly for software, requires no actual invention, merely the ability to describe concepts that people might need to incorporate into actual inventions. They then wait until some poor sap, generally unaware of their existence, invents something real and starts to sell it, and present the ultimatum: Let me suck your blood or I'll get the courts to open your veins for me, because my vague patent which has nothing to do with any working invention or even any very specific idea for what an invention might be like, has a section which overlaps conceptually with the real thing you did. Patent trolls add no value to anything, they are leeches.
"If we damage this investor/inventor relationship any further, we will kill patents altogether."
I make a distinction between patents in general and software patents in particular. I have no prejudice against patents in general but I am strongly in favor of abolishing software patents entirely. That said, if damaging investor/inventor relationships further will kill software patents altogether then I would like to damage investor/inventor relationships further.

There are a few software patents that I would get rid of too - one-click, auction on line, etc. However there are some that are inventive and make markets. Would you kill them? If killing them meant killing all other patents, would that be worth it?
Yes, I want to kill all software patents. I wrote software for years before software patents became something other than a novelty. Copyright has always worked well. Software patents have never done anything positive and in the last 15 years or so have become a major drag on the software industry.
I have nothing against patents in fields other than software. I only raised the idea of abolishing all patents as a way to get rid of software patents as an extension of your logic. If the choice came down to keep all patent types including software patents or abolishing all patents period I would choose to abolish all patents. But I seriously doubt that any such choice will arise.
Steve Stites
The choice is to abolish all. Nothing distinguishes a software patent from any other patent. Like it or not, so called patent trolls are an integral part of the patent system for software and other patents. Patent Trolls are investors. Most of the legislation on the table will all but wipe them out. If there are no investors to fund patent suits, there will be no patents except in large companies for defensive purposes. It's pretty simple.
I like many of the new pharmaceuticals especially the patented drugs my dad takes for his diabetes. They have extended his life and made it much more tolerable. Perhaps there is a better way to address the perceived problem other than killing the entire system.
"If there are no investors to fund patent suits, there will be no patents except in large companies for defensive purposes."
If all large companies hold software patent portfolios for defensive purposes only then what are they defending against? Not software patent trolls because trolls have no product to counter attack with defensive software patents. IBM started the software patent wars by amassing a large software patent portfolio and then aggressively forcing "cross licensing" agreements with companies holding smaller portfolios of software patents. Other companies got on the software patent bandwagon both to defend against IBM and to find their own cross licensing victims. The current aggressors in the software patent wars are IBM, Apple, Oracle, and Microsoft. The result is a less than zero sum game which is a net drag on the software industry.
Whatever happens to software patent trolls only affects the larger software patent wars in that the big aggressors would be relieved of a nuisance if software patent trolls were eliminated. So the large companies have been lobbying Congress to deflect any software patent reform to only apply to software patent trolls.
Congress has decided to pass some new laws to curb patent trolls. Congress has also decided that they will not single out software patents as a special problem. So the new restrictions on patent lawsuits will apply across the board to all industries. Personally I have no idea whether the industries other than the software industry will be benefited or hurt by the proposed anti-troll laws.
I do know that the political furor over software patents will not abate with the passage of the anti-troll laws. So it is possible that you will see your nightmare of all patents being abolished come true by Congress passing a series of laws to whittle away software patents to nothing and apply the new laws across the board to all patent types.
Perhaps you should lobby Congress to abolish software patents entirely in one fell swoop to save the rest of the patent industry.
Steve Stites
Pharmaceutical patents are an interesting case. When one looks closer, though, they seem to me a pretty doubtful argument for the modern patent process. For all the masses of money pharmaceutical companies have, the majority of research is still done by public institutions. An awful lot of pharmaceutical company patents, particularly the more important ones, are actually based on public work.
The pharmaceutical companies do quite a bit of work creating lots of molecules that are variations on molecules they know to be active and seeing what they do. And they do lots of work testing drug candidates once public research has pointed to those candidates. But the former could readily be replicated by someone else, and would probably be worth doing for profit without patents. And the latter might be better done by the public sector in the first place, since for-profit entities cannot be trusted not to fudge their results--their incentives to exaggerate benefits and understate dangers are too great. This problem has led to many deaths--tens of thousands for Vioxx alone.
I strongly suspect if you looked closely at those patented diabetes drugs your dad takes, you would find papers by university and NIH researchers at the base of their development.
Eliminate patents and new pharmaceuticals would continue to be developed. It's just that a large private tax would be considerably reduced, leaving more money for other areas of health care and more effective research by other sorts of researchers.
Actually, there are distinctions between software patents and many other patents (although not all). Traditional patents are on physical devices, and the rule used to be no tangible invention, no patent. Patents are also traditionally specific. The intent of patent law was to cover a fairly precise invention. Part of the "fostering innovation" part involved the two-pronged limitation: First, the condition for gaining the patent protection was revelation of the device's design, so that a third party would be able to replicate it. Second, the patent would not cover a further improvement of the device, or a different device which performed the same function in a different way, only the device itself. Patents did not cover concepts and thus did not block further innovation.
Software patents in effect break all those rules. They don't cover a particular device. They don't require revealing the code in order to gain protection. And they cover the concepts described in the patent, such that if someone writes different code that does what the patent describes in a different way, the patent still blocks them from developing and selling their different "device".
Some other patents do the same. I can't recall if there are still "business method" patents, but those had some of the same objections. But most patents do not, at least in theory. So yes, software patents are rather different from most others.
Mind you, I don't actually support patents in general. Most of the greatest innovation comes from collaboration, information sharing, and building on the concepts others come up with. As technology empowers worldwide, open collaboration more, we're seeing that process gain strength. Patents are generally a roadblock to this process, and I don't think any gains from agitating the profit motive to a higher pitch are worth that drag on research and innovation. But software patents are certainly among the worst, and qualitatively different from many others.
I agree with you that large software companies are behind the current round of so called patent reform. They steal technology and then disparage the inventor when he seeks redress. The problem is that killing trolls will only make it worse for smaller tech companies.
Big companies still have their patents and can crush small companies if they want. Nothing in the bills stop this.
What it stops are investors who enforce patents. Those patents generally come from people like me, individual inventors, and also from failed start-ups. The third place they get them is from big companies when the technology is not core to their products.
There is no reasonable way to omit software from patent protection without effecting just about everything else. No hardware can run without software and almost every device including your refrigerator has a processor of some sort now. You kill one, you kill the other. So software patents are a fact of life unless all patents are dead.
Perhaps our discussion should be more directed toward those large entities who steal inventions and kill start-ups. Under the current legal framework, a large company can get an injunction against a smaller company with ease, but not the other way around. Large companies are better positioned both financially and operationally to attack smaller companies - especially opensource companies operating on a razor thin margin - than the small companies are.
Perhaps the opensource community should file more patents.
Surely if there were a Ideas - database, that kept track of the ownership of even new thoughts and ideas (with dates), that were all open source. It would make it possible for any one to pick up some one else's concept and turn it into a product, with the ability to reward the initial seed person with some type of royalty ??
Its time to step forward to share knowledge about the circuits and programming used in that. Like in refrigerators and many other appliances sensors are used companies have to share its info with on internet so people can get advantage from it.

In honor of Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge's birth, the Royal Mint has created a special edition silver proof £5 Crown.
Featuring a St. George and the Dragon design created by master craftsman and jeweler Benedetto Pistrucci in 1817, the coin was produced in silver to keep with the tradition of crossing the baby's palm with silver to wish him future health, wealth and happiness.
"Even we are surprised by the fact that the Prince of Cambridge's name was announced just yesterday, and that the artists of the Royal Mint had already created a coin that bears the image of his namesake," Shane Bissett, director of commemorative coin at the Royal Mint, said in a statement.
"Designers at the Royal Mint will often look to our archive of artworks for inspiration when they are creating new coins, and it could not have been more appropriate that they chose a depiction of St. George," he adds.
Commemorative china has also been released to celebrate the birth of the future king.

How teens can get on the path to a happy career
Teens and their first job: How to get on the path to a happy career
I grew up in the 1980s in Columbus, Georgia. You needed a car to get around, so I did not work until I could drive. Within months of getting my driver's license, I got my first job as a part-time computer programmer for a stockbroker.
It is easy to forget that in the 80s, computers and programming were not nearly as pervasive (or popular) as they are today. I had been interested in computers for a couple of years by then. My prized possession was my Kaypro II with 64K RAM and dual floppies. Part-time jobs using computers were rare, so I felt lucky to find the perfect fit. I was tasked with building a computer program that would perform contact management, tracking interactions with potential and current clients. I wish I understood the value of such a system back then. Good thing Marc Benioff did. (Thank you, Salesforce.com.)
I ended up working with the stockbroker for more than two years until I went to college. I learned several very valuable lessons.
#1. While I loved programming and was fascinated by computers and technology, I did not want to pursue programming as a career.
Nobody appreciates the work that goes into keeping software bug-free and running like computer programmers, engineers, or developers do. It is a tedious and sometimes thankless job to make sure these programs are functioning and continuously improving. In fact, that's one of the things I respect the most about our Red Hat engineers and developers—they maintain Red Hat products for years to meet the needs of our enterprise customers. For example, not only is each version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintained for 10 years, engineers keep versions running while handling truly mission-critical compute jobs. Also, I found out I'm an extrovert. I love working with people. So as much as I loved programming, I knew I would need to find a profession that also allowed for a healthy dose of human interaction as well.
#2. My experience solidified my desire to go to college, obtain a computer science degree, and get my MBA.
Discovering that I'm an extrovert was a key lesson that shaped my college experience. I had always wanted to major in computer science, which I did. But I also added economics. Because I loved technology, but did not want to have a career as a programmer, I needed basic business skills to be successful. I think this early realization put me on the track to my role today as Red Hat's president and CEO. And, I would not have learned this lesson had I not spent so much time programming early in my career at the stockbroker's office.
#3. I learned how the business world worked.
I was 16 years old when I worked in the stockbroker's office. I had no idea how you were supposed to behave in a business environment. My dad was a medical doctor and mom was a nurse. I knew more about the hospital and doctor's office environments than I did a business environment. But luckily, the only computer the stockbroker had was in a central location in the office, which happened to be close to the secretaries. Fortunately for me, they took me under their wings and taught me what was and was not appropriate in the office.
I know it may sound trivial, but it's a real challenge for those just entering the working world. The confidence I gained in those years certainly aided me when I got my first full-time job at The Boston Consulting Group after college.
#4. I was lucky that my first job helped me build on my existing skills.
I was already heavily into computers when I began working for a stockbroker, but my experience at his office helped me to develop, hone, and build upon those skills. I could not have done that if I handpicked a traditional first job such as lifeguarding, waiting tables, or working at a retail store. While all perfectly respectable first jobs, knowing what I know now, I'm glad I had a head start in the technology industry.
The truth is, I consider myself very lucky that at such a young age, I learned valuable lessons that helped me get to where I am today. If I were to impart any wisdom to someone embarking on this journey, It's to look for a first job that will help you build on your existing talents. Look for a first job that can help you figure out if you want to go to college or get technical training. And once you've landed that first job, be a sponge. When you're young, it's easy to fall into the "know it all" territory. I encourage you to stay away from that temptation and rather assume you know nothing. Learn as much as you can from those around you. You have no idea the impact it could have on your future.
I still keep in touch with my first boss, Murray Solomon. He was a great person and first boss who started me down a path that's led me to my current career. Murray, thank you!

These are great tips I am going to share with my son. He graduates soon and wants the best of the best for his first job which I know he must earn and work his way up to. He is insightful and tries to do as many "extra curricular" things to bump up his knowledge and his resume as it seems a degree is not always enough in some very competitive industries. For example he took a extra Microsoft boot camp class that toned in on his area of interest and seems like just a simple initiative like this will not only help his job search but his performance in the field as well. I would advise students today to do as much as possible to complement their degree studies.

Brooks, thanks for sharing. Another great resource for teaching girls and boys of all ages more about technology and tinkering is hanging out at your local hackerspace. More on this in my upcoming interview with Leslie Hawthorn for Women in Open Source week: 1/20 - 1/24.
Wow! This article is very inspiring. I'm a fresh grad and currently working as an applications developer from a company where I spent my internship. And they decided to offer me a job. Opportunity can't wait, so grab it.
This article helps me re-think about my plans for the future. Thank you for the advise and tips!
Reading your article reminds me of my first job and memories i had there. I think our first salary is always very special for us no matter how much the amount is. I think today there are teens need guidance for a career as there are many career options in world and they should be guided looking at there interest.

Summer is officially here, and Blair County is getting hot - hot wings.
Since the 1990s, Lakemont Park has been entertaining crowds with its popular Wing-Offs, featuring a multitude of wings in all flavors from restaurants all over the area.
But this year, there will be two more choices for wing lovers: the 21st District American Legion Wing Festival at Legion Park in Hollidaysburg and Wingday Wednesdays at the Railroaders Memorial Museum in Altoona.

Zach Reese of Greenwood eats a batch of wings at the Lakemont Park Wing Off and BBQ Bash on?Thursday night.
Shan Nicole's owner Andy Glass and Rick Smith prepare a fresh batch of wings at Lakemont Park.
The 21st District American Legion Wing Festival moves into its second year in 2013, following a successful debut last year after the Legion broke away from its former partnership with Lakemont Park. The Wing Festival returns on July 11 and will be held each Thursday through Aug. 15.
"Last year, we had a very good turnout," said Al Wertz, past district commander and current deputy commander. "The community really supported us. We were getting people from Carrolltown, Ebensburg, Bedford, Huntingdon [and] of course, Holllidaysburg and Altoona ... all the surrounding communities."
The Wing Festival will be held from 5 to 9 p.m. and will feature four restaurants each week (vendors will vary), as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

21st District American Legion Wing Festival
When: 5 p.m. July 11 (Felix and the Hurricanes), July 18 (Chris Woodward & the Shindigs), July 25 (Chris Vipond Band), Aug. 1 (Flight 19), Aug. 8 (Hairforce One), Aug. 15 (Felix and the Hurricanes)
Where: Legion Park, Hollidaysburg
Admission: Free
Price of wings: Prices set by vendors
Info: Benefits American Legion children and youth programs. No outside food or beverages are allowed and bags will be checked at the entrance. Vendors change each week.
Wertz points out that the alcohol is far from the point of the event.
"This is not, to me, a drinking party," he said. "It's a festival held by the American Legion, and we hold family values very high. There is no intoxication. If you are visibly intoxicated, you will be escorted out."
All proceeds, after expenses, go to children and youth programs of the 21st District - consisting of 14 posts in Blair and Bedford counties.
"The whole idea of this was to take care of our children and youth programs and our ... oratorical programs for juniors and seniors in high school," Wertz said.
To that end, he was very happy with the estimated 1,500 to 1,800 people that turned out each week.
"We were quite successful last year, [but] we had a lot of rainouts," Wertz said. "We're in good shape as long as the weather holds."
For the area's newest wing event, letting people know they exist is just as important as having good weather.
Wingday Wednesdays at the Railroaders Memorial Museum, which began on June 12, is a collaboration between the museum and three nearby bars. According to Sherry McCarthy, director of marketing at the Railroaders Memorial Museum, the museum was looking for a way to bring people to the venue in addition to its successful Alive@5 concert series.
"Basically, we got together with the three vendors we have - Pellegrine's Lounge, The Belmar Hotel and Co'BRH's Lounge - and we figured that would be a perfect add-on," she said.
It was a natural fit, said Robin Pellegrine, manager at Pellegrine's Lounge.
"I'm real excited about the [event] down there," Pellegrine said. "Between us, the Belmar and Co'BRH's, we're like right down over the hill. So it's awesome that we're doing it."
The bars already cooperate where they can, Pellegrine said.
"It's kind of like our neighborhood thing," she said. "We've all been trying to help each other out. These are bars that we actually patronize also. And these days, you have to try and help each other out."
According to McCarthy, the first Wingday Wednesday event drew about 600 to 700 people.
"I think it was a little better than we expected for the first one," she said. "Of course, we hope to grow with each event."
Pellegrine said that wing events - her establishment, along with Co'BRH's and the Belmar, exhibited at the American Legion Wing Festival last year, and plan to participate there again - always require a lot of planning, but that they've gotten used to the grind now. In fact, she said all three establishments were looking forward to bigger crowds at the events yet to come.
"We're hoping to sell at least 60 cases of wings at the next one between the three of us," Pellegrine said.
Since the first event, the Wingday Wednesday group has decided to also sell hot dogs and "Texas-style" hot dogs, for those who don't like wings.
Lakemont Park, which declined to comment for this story, has three events left in what they now call The Wing Off and BBQ Bash. Beginning this year, barbecue fare will be provided by Prime Sirloin, while wing vendors will continue to change each week.
Those attending the events will need to pay $5 for admission to the park, but that fee includes an all-day ride and slide pass.
Though the number of wing events in the area has increased from just one to three in the past three years, Wertz says, "This is no type of competition."
"We are doing this, and we understand that - all the other places in the city - we feel that there's enough population in the surrounding area to support all the events that are going on," he continued. "And everyone is enjoying themselves. The American Legion is community-minded, and has no problem with any of the other wing events."

After the singer dropped out of his latest movie, an adaptation of Ntozake Shange's 1975 play For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf, less than a week before filming was to begin, director Tyler Perry had to cut short his vacation and find a replacement.
"I said, 'What? You're kidding me?,' " Perry writes in a lighthearted new letter to his fans. "It's five days before she has to go to work; nobody does that. We have a deal."
Jetting back to Atlanta where the movie is filming, he selected Thandie Newton to fill Carey's role. (She will join Whoopi Goldberg, Kerry Washington and Janet Jackson in the cast.) Perry also discovered that the singer's doctor was to blame for her sudden departure.
"I was told that we got a call, saying that even though our deal was done, she had been advised by her doctor not to do the film," Perry writes. "I said, 'What? You know I want a doctor's note, don't you? LOL."
As pregnancy rumors surround Carey, her would-be director won't buy into any speculation. "All I know," he writes, "is that I'm waiting just like the rest of the world to find out what happened."
In the end, he doesn't hold Carey's decision against her.
"What I do know of [Carey] is that she is a professional and wouldn't back out of a deal unless it was a major issue," Perry writes. "So, whatever is going on, I wish her and Nick [Cannon] the best and she has all my love, prayers and support."
Jokes Perry: "I just wish I could have finished my Mai Tai before I had to get back and re-cast this role!"

The 3 day Wilderness Exploration package offers some of the best game viewing in Kruger Park. Staying in structures made with buffalo dung walls allows for an adventure experience which will be difficult to match anywhere else! Game viewing is the main focus with it being in the southern section of Kruger which is well-known for the best wildlife sightings.
There are few things in life that are truly unique, but your lodge accommodation definitely fits the bill on this South African safari package. Nowhere else will you be able to have a luxury stay in structures built in traditional style with buffalo dung walls, providing a truly unique African safari.
In addition to this, all game drives will be done in an area which is extremely rich in wildlife, so seeing the Big 5 is something you can most certainly look forward to for an exciting safari experience. Exploring Kruger Park in this way will be an adventure you won't forget easily.
Depart Johannesburg Airport at 09H30 for your flight to Kruger Mpumalanga Airport. Upon arrival at 10h25, you will be met by your driver who will be taking you through to your unique lodge for the next 2 nights. This drive will take approximately 2 hours of which the last hour will be through Kruger National Park and already the start of your South African safari experience.
Arrival at the lodge will be just after midday with time to check in, enjoy light lunch and exploring the camp a bit before heading out on your first open safari vehicle game drive. The drive will be between 3 - 4 hours with a stop for sundowners overlooking the African wilderness. Upon return to the lodge, a traditional dinner will be served in the open air boma.
An exciting day awaits on your Wilderness Exploration package, so you will be up early today and ready for the game drive just after the sun comes up. The guided drive will last 3-4 hours and you will return to the lodge with a lot of new information learned.
Your afternoon will be at leisure to relax and enjoy real Africa in the wilderness. The next game viewing activity only starts in the late afternoon when you will also have the opportunity to spend an evening on safari looking for animals with your guide under a starlit sky. Enjoy pre-dinner drinks while the traditional African dinner is prepared by lodge staff.
The day begins early again as you still have some time to try and spot those animals you have not seen yet. Thereafter a hot brunch is served at the lodge and check out is followed by your road transfer to the airport. Arrival in Johannesburg will be at approximately 15h00.

The Neotec's flip up design offers the convenience and versatility of a full-face helmet that converts instantly into an open-face configuration. Utilizing an enlarged lock release button to facilitate easy handling with gloves on, the Neotec's lightweight chin bar and face shield rotate with smooth precision on a single axis point, yielding the seamless versatility of a true two-in-one design.
SHOEI's proven "360° Pivot Locking System" is road tested and made of high quality stainless steel components to ensure a safe and secure closure when the Neotec's chin bar is in the down, locked position.
Wider and taller than the CX-1V that it replaces, the CNS-1 protects from 99% of the sun's damaging UV rays, and SHOEI's 3D injection-molding process ensures a distortion-free view throughout the entire field of vision. Coupled with the Neotec-exclusive QR-N base plate system, shield changes and base plate function have never been smoother.
Pinlock® ANTI-FOG SYSTEM:
The all-new Neotec comes equipped with a Pinlock® Fog-Resistant System, offering the most effective anti-fog protection in existence. A simple, one-step installation process makes every Pinlock® lens easy to install.
The Neotec's built-in QSV-1 sun shield gives riders instant relief from sun glare in one quick motion. A large, easily located switch activates the 3D injection-molded inner shield, and the distortion-free, anti-fog, scratch-resistant view blocks 99% of the sun's damaging UV rays just like the CNS-1 external shield that lies ahead. Unique to the Neotec, the forehead area of the outer shell is raised slightly to accommodate the internal sun shield, allowing for the integrity of the helmet's inner EPS liner to remain intact.
Utilizing SHOEI's wind tunnels to help reveal the optimal balance between airflow and silence, SHOEI engineers equipped the all-new Neotec with a large lower vent shutter for ease of use with riding gloves, a strategically-placed, three position upper vent for optimal air intake, uniquely-positioned upper exhaust outlet vents to take better advantage of negative pressure suction, and a dual-layer EPS liner with cooling air channels… All yielding dramatically-improved cool-air intake and hot-air expulsion.
The Neotec is equipped with a fully removable, washable, and replaceable interior system. The 3D center pad components are three-dimensionally shaped to match the contours of a rider's head, allowing for an extremely comfortable fit while maintaining the firm hold necessary for distraction-free, high-speed riding. The Neotec's multi-layer cheek pads are available in different thicknesses for a customizable fit.

I think it would be insane for MS to not support APIs such as WPF, Win32 or Silverlight for writing apps that target this new Immersive environment, especially WPF, which seems tailor made for this type of rich app.
And the spelunking into leaked builds of Windows 8 seem to indicate that the new AppX system will support apps developed with these APIs as well as allow integration with the new shell via tiles (which I could understand being more limited in implementation as they are effectively embedded in another application).
But I think Microsoft needs to make an official statement as to whether these APIs will supported for developing future apps that target and integrate with the new Immersive experience or whether such apps will be relegated to the legacy desktop, even if we still have to wait for the September Build conference for details.

The Altoona Area High School gymnastics team is off to a nice start for the 2012-13 season.
On Saturday afternoon at the Fieldhouse, the Lady Lions improved their record to 3-0 on the young season, thanks to a 132.75-95.55 victory over Ridgway. Altoona won first-place honors in the vault, bars, beam, floor and the all-around categories.
"The girls were consistent in all four events," Altoona coach Michele Corle said. "They continue to get better with each meet."

Altoona's Josie Brandt competes on the uneven bars during the Lady Lions' meet with Ridgway Saturday afternoon at the Fieldhouse. Altoona won to improve to 3-0.
Even though the Lady Lions dominated in picking up points with second-, third- and fourth-place finishes, it was the first-place showing of Abby Wagner that led the way. The junior took first in the vault (8.55), the beam (8.9), the floor (8.85) and the all-around (33.9). Teammate Josie Brandt won the bars (8.8).
Corle's club is off until the new year when it will compete at St. Marys on Jan. 9.
