Political candidates have long accused their opponents of assorted faults and misdeeds. Occasionally, those charges have even had some basis in fact.
But Timothy Ray Murray, the lopsided last-place loser in the June 24 Republican primary in Oklahoma's 6th Congressional District, has gone beyond the usual fare of calling his rival a liar, cheat, phony, extremist, socialist and/or corporate stooge.
Instead, Mr. Murray contends that Rep. Frank Lucas, the five-term incumbent who won the primary with nearly 83 percent of the vote, is actually dead - and that he man who celebrated as the purported victor is an imposter.
From Mr. Murray's campaign website: "It is widely known Rep. Frank D. Lucas is no longer alive and has been displayed by a look alike."
Mr. Murray, who asserts that Rep. Lucas was killed during a trip to Ukraine in early 2011, has also pledged to "never use a look alike" to represent the 6th District.
Fortunately, though, that promise won't be tested anytime soon: Mr. Murray drew a mere 5 percent of the primary vote.
As for Rep. Lucas, his office said that not only is he still alive and well at age 54, but that he has never been to Ukraine.
Rep. Lucas also told KFOR-TV in Oklahoma City: "It does come as kind of a shock to read that you're not you."
And that would be a political identity crisis far more profound than flip-flopping on a controversial issue or even changing parties.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Sexier than all other of the female gender, Hannahs are unbelievably cool. This is primarily because their name can be spelt backwards.
Guy: Dayuuuum, check out Hannah!
Girl: I know, I wish my name could be spelt backwards.

A brilliant, witty, talented, beautiful girl who everybody loves and boys swoon over. She is passionate and flirty.
"Oh man, that girl, over there, other side of class... Damn she's a Hannah."
מאת TheDictionaryQueen 19 ביוני, 2009
The most beautiful girl in the world, who has class, fashion, yet is also sporty. No one can rival her in beauty, style, cuteness, friendliness, sweetness, kindness, generosity, and basically is an all-around fantastic person! Many other people are jealous of her awesomeness (Note: The people who dislike this definition.), and even her friends wish they could be like her. She is one of those rare kinds of girls who can go through a mud-slide, be thrown by a tornado, wade through a swamp, and come out looking like she just got done getting photos taken of her for the cover of the Vogue Magazine.
"That girl Hannah?? She is so beautiful! I wish I could learn how she looks so great all the time..."

Syracuse,N.Y. -- The Madison County Health Department plans to do aerial spraying to combat mosquitoes in the town of Sullivan between 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Tuesday.
The department decided to spray after finding evidence of Eastern equine encephalitis virus in five mosquito pools.
EEE is a rare and potentially deadly mosquito-borne disease for which there is no cure. An Onondaga County resident recently infected with EEE is recovering from the virus. A horse in Oswego County died of EEE earlier this month. Central New York is a hot spot for EEE, which has killed five people in the region since 1971.
The Madison County Health Department said spraying may be delayed in the event of poor weather.
The health department offered these tips:
- Stay inside during the spraying or avoid that area whenever spraying takes place and for about 30 minutes after spraying.
- After spraying, rinse homegrown fruits and vegetables thoroughly with water before cooking or eating.
- Wash outdoor tables and play equipment with detergent and water if not covered and exposed to pesticides during spraying.
- Consult your health care provider if you think you are experiencing health effects from spraying.
The department said aerial spraying can be effective in reducing mosquito populations, but is only a short-term control measure. It does not eliminate all mosquitoes or the risk for EEE.
The department said people should use insect repellent and wear clothes covering exposed skin when outdoors to avoid mosquito bites.
The spraying will take place south of Route 31, west of Lakeport Road, north of Fyler Road and East of Kirkville-Bridgeport Road.
A map of the spray area, pesticide information, and steps for residents and bee keepers to ttake to prepare for spraying is available on the Madison County Health Department website or by calling 366-2361.

Women's sports history was made over the weekend. In case you haven't heard, it happened in Las Vegas, when Kelly Kulick became the first woman to win a Professional Bowlers Association tour event.
That in itself is accomplishment enough, but what is even more impressive is that Kulick defeated one of the game's best, 2007-08 Player of the Year, Chris Barnes. She did it in one of the biggest events of the year: the Tournament of Champions, a PBA major. And she beat him by 70 pins it wasn't even close.
You could compare it to Billy Jean King's 1973 tennis victory over Bobby Riggs. It would be like a woman golfer winning the Masters or a woman driver winning the Daytona 500.
Joyce Jordan, an employee and league bowler at Holiday Bowl, watched the history-making match on television.
"I cried for her," Joyce said. "I was so happy and I couldn't believe her nerves of steel. [Kelly] said she couldn't feel her legs, well I wouldn't have been able to throw the ball."
Jordan says she still hears comments from local fans who miss the pro women, who used to come through Altoona for regional competition.
The PWBA tour folded in 2003 due to a lack of sponsorship support. A year later, the men's PBA tour opened its membership to women. Kulick, along with other bowlers like Liz Johnson and Kim Adler have earned exemptions on the tour, but before this weekend, a woman had never won a PBA event competing side by side with the men.
Women pros can compete against each other in the U.S. Open and a short series of PBA events, with limited prize money. Kulick's historic championship may be the shot in the arm that women's bowling needs.
Kulick bowled 48 games during the week leading up to the Tournament of Champions stepladder finals. She earned the number two seed, with an average score of 231.2.
Chris Barnes, whose wife, Lynda is also a professional bowler, was gracious before the final match, saying Kulick had earned the right to be there and gracious afterwards, congratulating, and even winking his support to her before the final frame.
Kulick had shut out Barnes heading into the 10th, so she could take her time and savor the moment. She whispered, "History is made" into her microphone before rolling her final ball, finishing with a convincing 265-195 victory.
The dream-come-true performance for Kelly Kulick should inspire other women bowlers nationally and locally.
"We have some really good women bowlers in the city," said Joyce, "and we encourage young girls to keep bowling as long as they can."
With the Tournament of Champions won, Kelly Kulick raised the trophy over her head, and pointed to a bright pink sign in the gallery: "Girl Power," it read.
Kellie Goodman can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. Her column appears on Tuesdays.

Five hours after being told by a Los Angeles art gallery that Peter Lindbergh would call « shortly, » my phone finally rang. It was worth the wait.
Lindbergh is the photographer who launched Linda Evangelista's career and has shot countless ad campaigns for clients such as Giorgio Armani and Calvin Klein and spreads for Harper's Bazaar, Allure and for American, British, Italian and French Vogue.
No wonder then that his new book 10 Women by Peter Lindbergh (te Neues, $48.95) is so tough to put down.
10 Women features Lindbergh's favorite photographs of Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen, Naomi Campbell, Kristen McMenamy, Kate Moss, Tatjiana Patitz, Claudia Schiffer, Christy Turlington and Amber Valletta.
Inside, we find a buck-naked McMenamy chilling out in the California desert, Evangelista shrouded in religious garb and Campbell in all her topless glory.
All the images are black and white save for one: Moss lying nude, except for a pair of white stiletto boots, on a bearskin rug.
« They were not supermodels when I started photographing them, » the 52-year-old, German-born Lindbergh recalls. But he was instrumental in fuelling their notoriety.
In 1988, « Alexander Liberman asked me to do a shoot for American Vogue and he said do what you want. I didn't want to work for them because they were doing big hair and lots of makeup at the time. »
Lindbergh's approach is « not to violate the model's personality by transforming them with makeup and hair, but to find their personality and get that for the picture.
« I put together Linda and Naomi and Tatjiana and Christy for the first time and photographed them totally natural together wearing white shirts on the beach. When (American) Vogue got the pictures they said they couldn't use them. This was just before (current editor) Anna Wintour came. When she did and she saw the pictures, she said, 'I would have given you 20 pages.' »
Liz Tilberis, now editor of Harper's Bazaar and the person to whom Lindbergh's book is dedicated, did recognize the power of grouping the top « girls » and ran the pictures in British Vogue.
« Now they have all become women, » Lindbergh says. « Linda has become more adult. Claudia has become more natural in her makeup and hair. And Cindy, the same thing. I remember I did a picture of Cindy in Miami where she was just out of bed and came straight to the set with no makeup. She looked really great. » Word in the fashion scene of late is that the supermodels are passé. Lindbergh not only doesn't agree, but would rather shoot the more experienced veterans.
« There are a lot of new models but there is a place for both. It's difficult to switch back to photographing the girls of 18 or younger. When they are 17, 16, 15, the personality is not there yet. » Personality, he says, makes the difference between a good model and a bad one.
« And you have to be really quick with your mind, really smart. Models are confronted with a lot of different situations, and it's difficult to go to work with a whole crew of people you have never worked with before and you are the subject. You have to overcome a lot of fear. »
It's difficult to imagine, say, Evangelista cowering before a camera, even in her early days.
He laughs. « Linda had such a will to make it to where she is now. » He describes how she learned early how to mask imperfections such as bony knees by positioning her legs to their best advantage. « She really 'worked' at it »
And it was Lindbergh who convinced Evangelista to first cut her hair.
« I told her I have done everything I can and I can't do anything anymore. I sat down with her and made her a graph. I showed her what level she is at now – about 60. And I said, 'you will stay stuck on 60 for 6 months, then the line will go down and nobody will talk about you. If you cut your hair, the line will drop a little, then it will go to 100.' And that's exactly what happened. »
Lindbergh says that in his 1992 documentary, Models — The Film, he asked Evangelista if she could have one wish, what would it be. « She said, with tears in her eyes, 'When it's all over, I hope I take it well.' »
Not present in 10 Women, as could be expected, is Shalom Harlow, among a few others. « There was only space for two newer models and I haven't worked so much with Shalom. I think she is fantastic. She really has something she didn't have before. Before she was playing a role, now she has become herself. That is the greatest achievement. »

Featured Golf News
O'Hern Goes Low in Frys.com Open
Aussie Nick O'Hern fired a 9-under 62 to take the lead after 18 holes of the Frys.com Open. The $5 million PGA Tour event started Thursday at CordeValle Golf Club in San Martin, Calif.
Starting on the 10th hole, the 40-year-old from Perth carded four birdies on his front nine and five more on the back en route to tying the course record and forging a three-shot lead over Jhonattan Vegas, Derek Ernst and Nicolas Colsaerts.
The left-hander O'Hern, who entered the tournament racked 144th on the money list, hit 14 of 18 greens and had just 23 putts. A victory in the tournament, which is worth $900,000, would get him well into the top-125 and secure a Tour card for 2013.
Vegas' best finish this year in 23 starts is a tie for fourth in the AT&T National. The 28-year-old Venezuelan ranks 112th on the money list and is another player who needs a high finish this week to keep his card. "It was definitely a phenomenal round today," Vegas said.
"It was really the best solid round I've had all year from the beginning to the end from birdieing the fifth hole and birdieing two of the last three," added Vegas. "So it was great. Wind blowing not as much as some of the other days, so stroked it really well and made some good putts and had a good round."
Charles Howell III, John Mallinger, Jonas Blixt, Gary Woodland and Greg Owen posted 66s for a share of fourth.
"Yeah, obviously a win would be great, but I set out a goal before Fall Series to try to get in the top 70 so I can get into invitationals next year," said Mallinger, who's ranked 98th on the money list. "Coming off a weird year last year."
"It's been a long year," noted the 43-year-old Howell, 94th on the money list and a two-time Tour winner. "But, you know, I mean, I played last week in Vegas. I'm going to play the entire Fall Series. This is a wonderful spot here. Everybody has something to play for. I think a win for everybody would make the year, but we'll take what we get."
Defending champion Bryce Molder carded an even-par 71 and shares 49th place.

Generational Garbage Collection
The partition of objects into different
(time intervals) based on time of allocation, and giving them different GC policies depending on age. Based on the heuristic (often true in practice) that
objects are discarded shortly after being used--hence the GC is tuned to get rid of those first.
In some pure functional languages, there is the additional benefit that pointers from an older generation into a newer one aren't possible. Even in languages with mutable state; old-to-new pointers are much rarer than new-to-old pointers.
Many generational GC's are not
--they don't successfully remove
the garbage (long-lived garbage, in particular, may never get collected). But it's the fresh garbage that smells the worst. :)
See the
for lots more info
Here's a possible implementation that might explain things.
Normally you would have only one heap, but it just takes
to mark and sweep and compact everything. So instead you have a small heap and a large heap. The large heap is substantially larger than the small heap. And you follow these rules:
Every object consists of data and pointers, and the garbage collector knows which parts are the pointers. This is generally the same requirement that any
system must meet.
Actually the pointers point into a "table of pointers" whose entries are the real pointers. This allows an object to be moved with only one real pointer being updated.
This kind of relocatable pointer is called a
in Mac and Windows operating systems.
I thought a "handle" in Win32 was just a MagicCookie
; the contents or interpetation of which are none of your (the application programmer's) business.
You are right. I'm actually thinking of Win16 and Classic Mac OS handles, back in the BadOldDays
when tasks weren't preemptive, and the OS had the right to move your data around in physical memory. I know that on the Mac you were
to use the sanctioned API's to access handles, but you could LiveDangerously
and simply dereference the handle to get at the raw data structure itself.
A general term for such a structure is a
With two heaps, pointers either go into the small heap or the large heap.
All new objects are allocated in the small heap.
If the small heap is full, mark-and-sweep is employed to try to free up space in it.
Also to free up space in the small heap, objects which have survived a garbage collection or two are moved to the large heap.
If there is
not enough space in the small heap, then an object may be freshly allocated in the large heap after all. But usually that indicates the object is pretty large by itself, and large temporary objects are pretty rare.
If the large heap is full then
heaps must be swept. However, most of the time only the small heap has to be swept, and that takes very little time because the small heap is so small.
This can be sped up even further if objects in the large heap are not allowed to have pointers to objects in the small heap. Objects may be moved from the large heap to the small heap in order to maintain this invariant, although it is easier to maintain it when objects are immutable. This allows the recursive mark routine, when it is trying to sweep only the small heap, to stop recursing as soon as it hits any object in the large heap.
is used for for the early generations.
takes time proportional only to the amount of live data; since early generations often have large proportions of garbage, this can be significantly faster than
, and it also compacts the heap automatically. Allocation in a
heap can be as fast as stack allocation; it consists of incrementing a pointer. And since the small heap is small, the system doesn't waste much available memory by leaving half the heap idle at all times.
have thread synchronisation to worry about, so it's not quite as fast as a per-thread stack. Some systems use per-thread nurseries to avoid these synchronization costs altogether (ending up with, essentially, a per-thread stack, albeit one that copies long-lived objects to the shared heap).
Actually the pointers point into a "table of pointers" whose entries are the real pointers. This allows an object to be moved with only one real pointer being updated.
I don't know what other environments do, but Smalltalk hasn't used a table like this for at least a decade. Instead, a semi-space algorithm is used, and the old pointer is replaced by a "forwarder" to the new object.
[How, exactly, does a "forwarder" work? The only thing I can come to is a reserved bit that signifies either a real-object or forwarder-object; but wouldn't this require more instructions for object access than an
Here's how a semi-space collector works (I thought this is what "generational collection" meant, but I supposed I could be mistaken):
Managed memory is divided into two equal spaces. One is labeled "from-space", the other "to-space".
New objects are always allocated at one end of to-space.
An incremental collecter traverses from-space, starting with a "root set" of known-live objects, and copies each object encountered into the other end of to-space. This collector replaces the object in from-space with a "forwarder" to the to-space object.
An incremental "scanner" process scans the objects copied into to-space field by field, copying objects referenced by them from from-space to to-space. This scanner leaves behind a forwarder for each object that is copied. The scanner stops when it reaches the end of the objects that were copied into to-space by the incremental collector.
Any access to a forwarder is redirected to the to-space object referenced by the forwarded, and the original reference is fixed to reference the to-space object.
When a reference to a from-space object is stored into a to-space object, the referenced object is copied to to-space and a forwarder left behind.
At any time after the scanner has finished, a "flip" takes place, where the to-space and from-space pointers are reversed, the (new) to-space is cleared, and the root set is copied.
Each time a flip occurs, the live objects have survived into a new "generation". In a generation-counting collector, a generation count is maintained by the collector and incremented each time the object is copied from from-space to to-space.
Object lifetimes in Smalltalk (and probably other object-oriented systems as well) follow a pronounced bathtub curve -- huge numbers of objects have very short lifetimes (often less than one generation), a smaller but still important number of objects have very long lifetimes, and very few objects have lifetimes in the middle.
This is reflected in a "tenured" generation-scavenging collector: a third "tenured" area is defined, and objects whose generation count exceeds a certain threshold (adjusted dynamically) are copied into the tenured area instead of into to-space. This tenured area is collected only very infrequently, if at all. Tenured objects die very rarely, and so garbage accumulates very slowly.
Henry Baker demonstrated that the lifetimes are code dependent, and that in the worst case, some programs can exhibit lifetimes similar to radioactive half-life, which messes up the assumptions of generational garbage collection. I believe that the worst case is considered rare, though.
This interesting paper suggests that assumptions about changes to the "mark/cons ratio" may not be as safe as generally assumed. I am under the impression that the "bathtub" shape of the Smalltalk object lifetime histogram has been measured and published repeatedly since the "Baker Garbage Collector" that I described here (the algorithm was first published by the same Henry Baker) was published in the
in 1983. A tenuring collector like I described here is less sensitive to the assumption of high infant mortality than this paper might indicate -- it simply reflects the empirical reality that older objects die very infrequently. Meanwhile, the cited paper doesn't claim that some programs exhibit half-life behavior, it says instead that the mathematical model of radioactive half-life is easier to analyze.
An application with these characteristics may not be prototypical of garbage-collected applications, but it does provide an ideal mathematical model which can represent one end of a spectrum.
Having set up this strawman, Baker then knocks it down, observing that this model doesn't result in high infant mortality and therefore that the mark/cons ratio doesn't improve.
It appears to me that the main thrust of this 12 year old paper is that in 1992, we didn't have a mathematical model of object lifetimes that predicted the infant mortality curves observed in practice. Baker concluded his brief paper with the observation that
Our personal belief is that the object lifetimes found in garbage collection measurements cannot be adequately modelled by traditional probability/statistics models which assume that distributions have finite "standard deviations", but will require fractal models [Mandelbrot83], which can have infinite second moments.
That's odd. Doesn't the Cauchy distribution have an infinite standard deviation? That's a pretty traditional distribution.
No. The standard deviation is not defined for the Cauchy distribution. Even the expected value of the Cauchy distribution is inf-inf, but one could argue from symetry that it is 0, but even with this the standard deviation comes also out as inf-inf.
There are distributions that have infinite variance though: The ParetoDistribution
for small k. See also
If work in that domain has been done in the intervening 12 years, it would be interesting to see what the resulting analytical implications have been.

The Precision Array to Probe the Epoch of Reionization, called "PAPER" for short, is a specialized, long-wavelength-gathering radio telescope. PAPER searches for signs of changing times in the early Universe, 500 million years after the Big Bang, when basic elements were blasted back into protons and neutrons by the energetic shining of the first stars and galaxies. This ancient hydrogen emission, traveling for billions of years in an expanding Universe, arrives in much longer wavelengths than it had when it radiated from the first stars. PAPER is built to detect those long wavelengths.
PAPER was developed by Rich Bradley and Don Backer in the early 2000s. They chose to build their first array in the Galford Meadow at the back end of the Green Bank Observatory property, near the 85-2 antenna where the Green Bank Interferometer's track ended. The long wavelengths collected by PAPER overlap with those of FM radio stations, so our radio-quiet Green Bank is a perfect location to host North America's 32-telescope array.
Each antenna is a cross-shaped dipole made in the machine shops in Green Bank. Antenna signals are sent over a 75-ohm TV coaxial cable to the central correlator housed in a small shed near the array. In 2010, the first sky maps were produced by PAPER astronomers.
The Green Bank PAPER array is the smaller cousin to larger, 64-antenna arrays in Australia and South Africa.
PAPER is a partnership between NRAO staff scientists and scientists at University of California at Berkeley, the University of Virginia, the University of Pennsylvania, and SKA South Africa. It is a pathfinder for future arrays that hope to image the first light of the Universe. As a pathfinder, PAPER scientists report on antenna design, array configuration, data storage, digital signal processing, and calibration and RFI struggles.

Beijing is facing local urban transport challenges like congestions, air pollution and noise emission. In addition, since motor vehicle is the fastest growing contributor to global atmospheric warming, how to reduce GHG emissions from urban transport become a key challenge for a sustainable development in China and globally.
Appropriate Transport Demand Management (TDM) strategies and measures can affect travel behaviour and therefore reduce transport energy consumption and GHG emissions. The TDM project in Beijing aims to indentify suitable non-technical measures for Beijing and evaluate GHG emissions reductions.
This project is part of the German International Climate Initiative (IKI) supported by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB). On behalf of BMUB and the Beijing Municipal Commission for Transportation (BMCT), the project is implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and the Beijing Transportation Research Center (BTRC).
BTRC updates information of congested urban main roads every two minutes. Real-time road information can be accessed online.

Floyd's resume isn't trash by any means. People forget him beating Corrales when he did was a big deal considering the hype for Corrales going into that fight. But as Floyd's mentioned himself, he's made the best business decisions for himself, which doesn't necessarily equate into "fighting the best", because like he also said, "He's not here to prove who the best is".

In 2 out of Floyds last 3 fights hes fought the number 1 and 2 WW in his weight class. Its amazing how that is overlooked. Hes also been actively chasing down Pacquiao for a fight.

After reading certain comments on this site, I realized that most of the animosity directed at Floyd is because he's Black. One poster came out and admitted it.
Boxing, like most other sports, are dominated by Blacks. This had created a resentment toward Black dominance in sports.
This is why people who are otherwise knowledgeable about the sport of boxing would claim that the current crop of Euro fighters are "great" boxers.
Most of them hid out in their own countries, safe from whatever competition until whatever Black fighter got old or retired.
They did the same thing to Roy Jones .. calling him reluctant because he refused to go to Germany to fight a heavily protected boxer named Dariusz Michalczewski. Roy had won every belt except the one Darius hid away with, and even though Roy had faced EVERY OTHER CHAMPION in his division except Darius, the boxing fans laid the blame on him.
Its been this way since Blacks were allowed to compete.
Floyd will not be loved, respected or called great if he loses. As it is they are hailing Pacquiao, who to date has NOT faced a WW ranked higher than FOURTH(4) as the #1 WW based on "cause they say so". In Floyd's last 2 fights he's faced the #1 and #2 WWs.
So facts and figures don't mean much on this site and quite frankly the boxing world.
Its a new day. The 3rd world peasants have created what seems to be a huge fanbase, and the networks, magazine and promoters are going to cater to that because its about money.
Think about it Larry .. if you have the best record against the best fighters and you command the best PPV numbers, how in the hell can you be second in any category? If you have never lost, have consistently beaten the #1, 2 and 3 in any division you compete in, and continue this over 14 years, who can claim to be better?
There is no real argument.
Its just that peasants yell louder than real fans. That's all.

floyd doesn't have to lose, all he has to do is fight pacquiao and put on a great show. even if he loses, he will still get credit because he didn't duck pac.
floyd ducking pac is what's making boxing fans sore.
also it's false to say floyd has been actively pursuing pac... wasn't it floyd who said "pacquiao's next" then a few weeks later said "I lied, I just told you what you wanted to hear". I don't care that he lied, because he is under constant pressure to fight pac, but to say floyd actively pursues a fight with pac is the most egregious lie a boxing fan can spread.

What Goes Around DOES Come Around
It hardly seems possible that 18 years have gone by since an old friend walked into my messy business and almost forcibly changed my life. Then, just last month, I received a different call from this same friend, Van Thompson, one of the founders of a now successful technology company based in Tennessee.
It seems both our lives AND our businesses are crossing paths once again. A wonderful beginning for a New Year!
In my "System Busters" book, I relate how in 1993 I was pretty much at my wits end in my business—swamped by chaos and thinking to lock the mess inside and walk away—when my friend stopped by my old shop, forcefully interrupting my foul mood, and insisting I take a ride with him. Long story short, I went along grudgingly—pretty much kicking and screaming, "I don't have time for this!!"—not at all wanting to hear Van's concerns about my life and the mess I'd made of my business. Really meaning to help, he had pretty much shoved a BOOK into my ungrateful hands that day, and then dropped me back at my shop.
After stubbornly managing to ignore the book for the next two weeks, I finally read it one night, and couldn't put it down. Suddenly, I sat straight up in bed, having had one of the biggest "Aha" moments of my life. I knew EXACTLY what it would take to fix my business!
All these years since, I've gone to great lengths to lobby the owners and managers of many businesses about the fruit of that "Aha" revelation—the knowledge we have gained about the power of well-designed business systems. Meanwhile, my friend Van had been so busy building one of the larger technology companies in America, he knew very little about that "fruit" that grew from the seeds he had helped plant back then.

Dance card
|This article does not cite any sources. (August 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
A dance card or programme du bal (also known by its German-language name, Tanzkarte) is used by a woman to record the names of the gentlemen with whom she intends to dance each successive dance at a formal ball. They appear to have originated in the 18th century, but their use first became widespread in 19th century Vienna, especially at the massive balls during Fasching before Lent.
An actual dance card is typically a booklet with a decorative cover, listing dance titles, composers, and the person with whom the woman intended to dance. Typically, it would have a cover indicating the sponsoring organization of the ball and a decorative cord by which it could be attached to a lady's wrist or ball gown. From the 19th century until World War I, dance cards for the elite of Austria-Hungary were often very elaborate, with some even incorporating precious metals and jewels.
In modern times the expression "dance card" is often used metaphorically, as when someone says "pencil me into your dance card," meaning "find some time to spend with me". Conversely, someone's "dance card is full" implies that even though they may be interested, they have no time for another person.
U.S. Air Force aircrews in general, and those involved in flight tests in particular, use the term to describe the first card in a "deck" of flight or test maneuver cards. The "dance card" contains administrative data about the mission, aircraft, and aircrew as well as a list of the maneuvers to be flown. The card serves as a table of contents for the mission and a quick reference for the aircrew's use during the flight.

Egypt's military has pursued a relentless crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood, arresting most of the group's top leaders and planners. But the crisis is far from over.
Scenes of churches burning across Egypt should have never happened. Amnesty International is accusing security forces of a "shocking dereliction of duty" in protecting Christians.
"The backlash against Coptic Christians should have been anticipated," Amnesty said in a statement. "In the current political stand off, both the Egyptian authorities and the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood have shamefully failed to prevent and stop attacks on Coptic Christians."
At least 60 churches were destroyed, along with Christian schools, homes, and businesses.
The streets of Cairo are relatively calm Tuesday night. The army escalated their crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood by arresting its top spiritual advisor Mohamed Badie for incitement to murder. The group said his arrest was "just one Brotherhood member."
"He is of huge value for us, we are in pain," said Khaled Hanafi, a member of the Freedom and Justice Party. "But the Brotherhood operates as a coalition on all levels of society and his arrest will not affect our operations."
But it has so far, with the Brotherhood's most experienced and respected leaders now behind bars.
"Thank God that Mohammed Badie has been arrested, and the government should take all the necessary measures for the Brotherhood to stop," Gamal Mahmoud, a local resident of Cairo, said.
Meanwhile, the White House is disputing a report that the U.S. has already cut military aid to Egypt, saying events in the country are still unfolding.
"That aid that we have provided in the past or the aid that's in the pipeline for us to provide moving forward is something that is under review," Deputy White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said.
And in a move that is likely to inflame an already volatile situation, Hosni Mubarak, the former Egyptian president overthrown in 2011, could be a free man within hours.
A court acquitted him of corruption charges, but he still faces allegations of killing hundreds of protestors during the uprising.

With a degree in economics, Yevgeniy Levich, 23, may understand better than most why so many people his age are out of work.
He blames the lack of jobs on a myriad of reasons: the lack of regulation in banking that led to this economic crisis; a failed theory that lowering taxes leads to investment; a proposal for infrastructure jobs that doesn't do much for someone who doesn't work with his hands - that's all the macro stuff.
Microeconomics is this: Levich, a Central High School graduate with degrees in economics and journalism from New York University, is still living with his parents in Northeast Philadelphia and hoping that he'll land a job as a nightclub office assistant.

This carpenter ant bait formulation provides for the carpenter ant's dietary needs while using the delayed-action insecticide Abamectin.

Do not use in areas that have been treated with insecticides or sprays. This will cause the bait to be unattractive to the ants. Always read the label!
Abamectin B1 is a GABA inhibitor that interferes with the normal functioning of an insect's nervous system and begins affecting ant populations within 24 hours. This type of insecticide allows the ants time to take the bait back to the nest where it is distributed throughout the colony. Reproduction of the colony halts once the queens have been eliminated and the workers, who carried the bait, perish.

Additional Information About Controlling Ants:
Carpenter Ants are social ants that live in colonies, primarily in wood. They hollow out wood to build their nests. Their tunneling in wood and foraging for food and water lead to their "pest" status in or around homes. Carpenter ants are an excellent indicator of moisture problems in a building, or other conditions conducive to their infestation, such as rotting wood, that need attention. Homeowners can minimize damage to their houses from carpenter ants by learning how to identify the ants, knowing their nest site preferences, and taking proper preventive and control measures.

To the Editor.—The article by Seeler et al in the January issue of the Journal (125:132, 1973) describes a case of transfusion malaria, due to Plasmodium vivax, treated successfully with chloroquine phosphate. The authors state that they subsequently treated the patient also with primaquine phosphate. They cite as their authority for this form of treatment the 14th (1968) edition of Pediatrics by Barnett.
Since primaquine is effective only against the exoerythrocytic cycle of malaria, and since transfusion malaria, in contrast to that acquired through a mosquito bite, lacks the exoerythrocytic cycle, administration of this drug to the infant described by the authors was unnecessary. In view of the fact that primaquine has been associated with toxic side effects, the authors' error of commission ought not to be perpetuated. I am concerned that their article appearing in your widely read journal may do just that.

According to a press release, the MegaHub consolidates all of DHL Supply Chain's operations in Hong Kong and provides businesses with increased flexibility and cost efficiencies. Location is another benefit, since the facility is accessible to Hong Kong's transportation network, including Hong Kong International Airport, and is close to the city's central business district.
Tom Wong, the company's managing director for Hong Kong and Macau, said DHL Supply Chain specifically targeted Hong Kong for growth. "The opening of the DHL Supply Chain MegaHub Hong Kong is testament of our commitment to and confidence in the city as one of the world's primary logistics and distribution centers," he said in a statement.
"Establishing our new headquarters within this expansive and cutting-edge property will enable us to provide timely service, monitoring and support to our customers," Wong continued.
The MegaHub isn't the only North Asian facility DHL Supply Chain has invested in recently, however. Since 2009, the company has forked over €224 million to expand its facilities in North Asia, and DHL executives expect to spend another €300 million by 2015 on this goal.
Deutsche Post DHL CEO Frank Appel explained that Asia is a key region for the company, since it "continues to be one of the most active and dynamic regions in the world economy." He added that keeping pace with Asia's necessitates requires an extensive logistical network.
"Both international and local customers require effective and efficient solutions to establish their supply chains in the region, and we are proud to open DHL Supply Chain MegaHub Hong Kong to better serve the market," Appel said.

I read your article (PEOPLE, Aug. 18) for the part on solutions because I desperately need help. I truly believe that the best medicine for this epidemic of marital cheating is if each person involved would earnestly stop and think of the Golden Rule. Try to imagine the gut-wrenching hurt that comes from infidelity and ask yourself if you would like to be on the receiving end. Then pray for strength to "keep thee only unto him / her, so long as you both shall live." It's like the drug-abuse commercials tell the kids: "Just say, 'No!' "
A Wronged Spouse
What begins as an ego booster often leads to tragedy. The partner trusted to share joys and the trials of life becomes the creator of the pain of family breakup. Speak to any child of divorce, as I do as a family therapist, about their early loss of innocence. Mothers and fathers who never experienced divorce as children have no concept of the lifelong effects of this loss.
Claire J. Lehr
Irvine, Calif.
I was pregnant with our second child when my husband was unfaithful to me. I knew the other woman on a seemingly friendly basis and never imagined she would do such a thing. Though the marriage has persevered, a lingering sense of pain and loss still lives within me.
New York City
Professionals who lead spouses to believe that partners would not stray if their marriages weren't lacking something do a disservice to the already wounded husband or wife. This world is full of lonely wives whose husbands allow them to shoulder the burden of children and home upkeep. This should create scads of unfaithful wives, but it doesn't. My best advice to someone who is married to a man or woman who is constantly unfaithful is to read the book Sexual Addiction by Patrick J. Carnes. It changed my life and elevated my self-esteem.
Dixie Riles
For two years of my life I was the Other Woman. It started at work and quickly went beyond "just friends." The first year was wonderful; he was separated, and I foolishly thought our relationship meant something to him. Then I became pregnant, and I discovered how expendable I was. His wife found out and threatened me with a civil suit. He denied the child was his. I miscarried and was left to pick up the pieces of my life. With the acceptance and care of close friends, I am beginning to get on with my life. The only thing I can say to anyone flirting with an illicit relationship is: "Don't do it!"
Springfield, Mo.
My sincere apologies to Cyndy Garvey for all the bad thoughts I had about her when she broke up with Steve. Shame on you, Steve, for putting the blame on your wife.
Mary Martin
Long Beach, Calif.
Cyndy Garvey's allegations of superstar ex-husband Steve's extramarital adventures must come as quite a shock to millions of disbelieving hero worshippers. To the cynics and realists among us, however, the allegations, if true, aren't very surprising. Regardless of how much we may have admired the Popeye forearms and the bullwhip batting stroke, it has long been suspected that Garvey's carefully manicured public image may have been more than a bit contrived.

When David Hartman negotiates his new contract in December, I hope Capital Cities gives him the same treatment he gave Sandy Hill and Joan Lunden. What goes around comes around, and Hartman is long overdue.
Sandy Deetz
Miami Shores, Fla.
Joan Lunden should be proud of her promotion, and even prouder of the fact that she's achieved it through hard work and persistence when others would have turned it into a media event.
Dayle Rado Thomas
Southbury, Conn.
Hats off to Joan Lunden for demanding equality and winning it. It's high time women were considered equals with men in titles and salaries. As a former television-radio journalist, I am happy to see women slowly but surely making it in what has traditionally been a male-dominated business. Now let's have more women anchoring the major newscasts and get rid of the "boy-and-girl" stories and see more solid journalism.
Jane H. Rorrer
Camp for Capitalists
I'd like to express my support for the rich kids' camp. It really upsets me to think how "soft" they're getting. It's good to see that people are making efforts to start early to instill greed, power and snobbishness in these youngsters.
K.C. Nies
As a fifth-grade teacher I was saddened by the article about the Money Management Summer Camp for kids. The adult like comments made by the children made me shake my head and pity their futures. At least I can be thankful that 10-year-old Janet Cafaro ("Money is power") attends a special school for the gifted. I certainly wouldn't want to have her in my class!
Teresa Fasola Tocher
Pioneer, Calif.
What's this obsession you have with age? How in the world can the attractive, exciting Monkees, only in their early 40s, be considered "geriatric '60s rockers...crawling back into the daylight"? I have been a fan for years, and I was able to see them in concert twice this summer. Your description of them couldn't have been more wrong. Of course—according to your figuring—at the advanced age of 27 I might be in the midst of a mid-life crisis and overly sensitive.

How to remove Zeitgeist in Ubuntu and why
In my desktop I use Xubuntu 12.04, and today i noticed that this distribution shippedd by default the Zeitgeist daemon, a thing that I'm not using at all and that is using resources of my system, so I've decided to remove this daemon totally from my system, please note that if you use Gnome 3 or Unity you could have some side effect, or perhaps the system will just become more faster, like the author of the article: Removing Zeitgeist Sped Up Unity .

He's credited as one of the founding fathers of the New Romantic movement. His records provided the soundtrack to those fumbling school disco snogs in the 1980s. Celebrities including Jack Nicholson and Sylvester Stallone have attended his club nights. And now some of his outfits, which inspired generations of clubbers, are set to be celebrated in a special exhibition Club to Catwalk at the Victoria & Albert Museum.
But even at the grand old age of 54, Steve Strange's mother, Jill, is still doing his laundry.
"My mum is still looking after me," he laughs heartily.
"We've always had a close relationship. When I dyed my hair orange at 12 and was suspended from Oakdale, she stuck up for me. Eventually I had to dye it back, but few mums would stick by you like that. She's cool."
In fact, when we catch up, Steve's resting up at his mum's house in Porthcawl following a "manic and magical" showcase gig in Cardiff with his reformed band Visage.
It's a marked change in fortunes for the former club host and musician.
At 15 he went to London, finding work in Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren's shop Sex in the Kings Road. There followed a disagreement over a blue tartan outfit: "Vivienne found out I'd taken it from the store when I bumped into her at a gig", and a feeling of disillusionment with the punk scene: "I had black friends and suddenly punk involved all of these racist, violent, national front types." So he turned his back on that scene and ran his own weekly club night instead.
With an as yet undiscovered Boy George installed as a cloakroom attendant, and Marilyn, in full drag, as the cigarette girl, these nights, such as Billy's and Blitz, are now the stuff of New Romantic legend.
"I was very strict on the door," says Steve reflecting on the period. "If people turned up in a wetsuit with their face painted black and white I'd turn them away. Our nights weren't about being weird, it was about people embracing and expressing how they felt.
"That's why this Club to Catwalk exhibition at the V&A is so important. The clothes we were wearing from that period are still really relevant. Without trying to sound too bitchy, Lee Bowery's clothes were terribly made, but my they were magical.
"It wasn't a freak show, it was about being creative, it was about balancing classic style alongside the outrageous. We became known as the Cult with No Name, the Blitz Kids.
"There was an instance where I stopped Mick Jagger from coming in. That was to do with fire safety though. If we had too many people in the club we'd have been closed down, I couldn't make exceptions. Unfortunately a tabloid hack was there that night and so it appeared all over the papers – I'd booted Mick Jagger out of my club night. Turns out, it was the best thing I could've done."
From there, Steve's career rocketed. He formed the band Visage in 1979 alongside Midge Ure and Rusty Egan, they grabbed the world's attention with dancefloor classic Fade To Grey, which reached number one in nine countries and number two in Britain. There was an appearance in David Bowie's Ashes to Ashes video, as well as modelling stints including for Jean Paul Gaultier.
But just as quick as his ascent did his life quickly fall apart. He developed a drug problem, battling a severe heroin addiction for years on end and Visage split in 1985 following two successful albums, Visage and The Anvil.
Then in the late '90s his world "turned upside down" following the deaths of "dear friends" Michael Hutchence and Paula Yates, and his London home burnt down.
Since then his life has not been without drama. After a series of "bizarre episodes" he was diagnosed as being on the verge of a nervous breakdown and spent several weeks at a psychiatric hospital. And a further relapse in 1999 resulted in him being given a suspended sentence for shoplifting.
Steve is somewhat reluctant when it comes to talking about his descent. Throughout the interview his voice is quavering, almost to the point of slurring, perhaps belying the fact that he has indeed been through some very 'dark times'.
"The music industry definitely fostered drug abuse with me," he says frankly. "There was no way I could be in five countries in one day, it's inhumane to expect someone to leave Heathrow and fly to Paris to do a TV show then fly to Italy, then Spain, or Germany or Greece or wherever.
"I'm going back into this with my eyes open. I've got a really good team around me, none of us even really drink. I might have the odd glass of red wine or a bit of a pear cider – those days are behind me."
Visage, who reformed for the second time last year, have only Steve as the original member. With a tour planned for September the future certainly looks bright for the group.
And, just as in his Blitz Kids days fashion is playing a key part. "Michiko Koshino will be doing the clothes for the tour and the stuff we've been wearing on the showcases have been created by a very pioneering designer. But when it comes to fashion I like to think I don't follow it, if anything, I dictate it.
"I get that from my mum, I get my showmanship from her, she is the show. When she promenades she sets the fashion in Porthcawl."
The Club to Catwalk Exhibition is at the V&A, Cromwell Road, SW7, until February 16, 2014.

Hilary Rosen, a managing director for strategic communications firm SKDKnickerbocker, pundit for CNN and, according to The Nation, a Democratic lobbyist, got a little too enthusiastic in her election year trash talk when she said on CNN on April 11, "Guess what—[Mitt Romney's] wife has actually never worked a day in her life."
We can all agree that this was a dumb thing to say. The useful question for communicators to ask is: How did a professional communicator arrive at that point where that particular question was asked?
It's fairly obvious that both the Democratic and Republican party hand out talking points to their spokespeople, who include members of Congress, members of the professional media, paid consultants and who knows who else. Was Rosen's comment a failed talking point or did she just go overboard in her effort to advance a political point of view?
My guess is she went overboard in making the point that Ann Romney is not an expert on working (as in "job holding") women's economic issues and thoughtlessly lapsed into a common misconception that women who don't have salaried jobs and stay home to raise children don't really work.
She went overboard on behalf of a political party and said something dumb. We see this on the Republican side, too. By laying it on too thick, she became the story and lost credibility as a spokesperson.
The lessons here: As an advocate or spokesperson, don't oversell, don't pander, don't exaggerate. Leave that to the candidates (or CEOs) themselves.

Hi I recently purchased a PTR 91, a HK91 clone, with the intention of a SHTF rifle. Upon shooting though, found that it wasn't exactly the experience I was expecting. Because of its high recoil and "odd" design, I found that my accuracy was suffering. Also came to the debate of whether .308 would even be a good choice due to weight and limited carry capacity. So I was thinking about taking it back and trading it in(which my local shop allows for 30 days after purchase) for another rifle, one that better fills this role. So basically wondering which one. I would really like to avoid an AR or AK because I would prefer something different, not the same as everyone else has, but I will consider if it is the best choice.

Hi All,
I have a problem with the keyword generation and a very weird one. It seems that all words which contain the character 'p' , that is p as in Portal get broken when inserted in the keywords meta. For example if I use the word "metacarpooling" in either the title or the description (it doesn't matter if it's the main page or a forum/topic page), the keyword would be broken down to two smaller ones without 'p' - > "metacar" and "ooling".
This happens right off the bat when I install phpbb SEO - full installation. This also happens with cyrillic keywords when I use the 'р' character- my website is dual language. I don't think it's the language pack, because it's an old stable one and never had problems with it before.
I also tried a brand new phpbb SEO installation without enabling the SEO mod, or installing the GYM mod - nothing else installed besides the one extra language pack and it does this right of the bat.
( works ok with normal phpBB installation).
Any help would be sincerely appreciated!

The Eagles' overtime victory against the Green Bay Packers was not a half hour old Sunday night, but the media already had christened the biggest play of the game.
"Fourth and 26," or "Fourth and Forever." Take your pick, both figure to be part of Eagles history forever.
With 72 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Eagles turned a fourth-and-26 into the most implausible first down of the season on a Donovan McNabb pass that Freddie Mitchell caught 28 yards downfield.
