•Q. This past year, I got some kind of fungus in my ears that deteriorated my eardrums to the point that I needed hearing aids. It is great being able to hear again, but with one drawback: I drive a '97 Ford F-150 extended-cab long-bed pickup, and when I open the door, the warning bell reverberates in my hearing aids and drives me crazy. And to top it off, the bell continues even with the door open and the key removed. I want to shoot the little guy under my dash who's ringing that bell! My regular car mechanic says he's afraid to try to disconnect it. What can I do to get some relief? I love the truck, and it has been perfect for me through the years. Help!•
TOM: It's not easy. You should see if one of the guys from the local bomb squad moonlights. He can probably handle it.
RAY: We know it's not easy because we tried it once for a customer. It was a similar Ford truck, and I think the guy wanted to sneak back into his house after his late-night book-club meetings without his wife hearing him. So he asked us to disconnect the door chime.
TOM: We took the simplest approach, which is to remove the thing that makes the noise. We located it way up under the dashboard. And after a great deal of difficulty, one sprained elbow and two dislocated shoulders, we removed it.
RAY: Only once we removed it, something else important didn't work ... like the headlights, or some other lights. It was a long time ago, so I don't remember. I just remember we had to trick the guy into picking up his car during daylight hours.
TOM: The problem is that that same chime is also used to warn you when, for instance, you leave your headlights on. And it turned out all that stuff was wired together.
RAY: So if you want to kill just the door chime, you've got to perform a more surgical operation.
TOM: The wiring module that controls this thing is in the steering column, so you have to start by removing the steering collar.
RAY: On the left side, you'll see a little plastic junction box with a bunch of colored wires attached to it. You want to find the black and purple wires, and carefully cut them.
TOM: Be careful. If you cut the red wire by mistake, Harrison Ford may have to come in and rescue you.
RAY: The real reason to be careful is that it's much easier and cheaper to cut these wires than it is to put them back!
TOM: Also keep in mind that the chime is there for a reason: because lots of morons like us have locked their keys in the car, or left the headlights on.
RAY: So another idea would be to try dulling the chime first. If you find the chime itself up under the dash, you can remove it and then wrap it in some sound insulation and duct tape. That may mute the sound enough so it doesn't hurt your ears, while still leaving a slightly audible warning chime in place. That way, just as you slam the locked door with the keys still in the ignition, you can say to yourself, "What's that faint dinging noise I hear?"
•Q. Am I putting my 24-year-old daughter in harm's way by teaching her to rotate the tires and change the oil on her car? She is strong, capable and willing. I would take it very hard if anything were to happen to her as a result of this endeavor.•
RAY: Well, everything has some risk attached to it.
TOM: For instance, if she weren't changing the oil on her car, she might be hanging out with Bernie, the nursery-school dropout down the street, in his van, looking at his etchings. And that's riskier.
RAY: So while there is some risk associated with car repair, the jobs you've selected for her are relatively low-risk, if done correctly.
TOM: So that means when rotating the tires, you don't want her using the jack that comes with the car. Those are notoriously flimsy, in our opinion, and really only for use in roadside emergencies — if that.
RAY: So if she's going to be yanking wheels off a 3,000-pound car, you want to buy her a real, hydraulic floor jack and a set of four jack stands.
TOM: After securing the car on flat ground, she'll jack up the rear end and put two jack stands under the frame there, and let the back of the car rest on the stands. Then she'll do the same in the front. At that point, she can push and pull all she wants and rotate the tires diagonally, and the car shouldn't go anywhere.
RAY: When she changes the oil, you'll show her how to unscrew the drain plug and filter without pouring hot oil down her arm and giving herself a tattoo in the shape of the River Nile.
TOM: But the greatest danger she'll face is the risk of having a car fall off its jack. So that should be the focus of your paternal risk-management program. But with some reasonable care, and the right tools, she'll impress the heck out of all the boys (hope that doesn't cause you to reconsider).

Central Park, New York City
Free and open to everyone
Scheduled speakers include:
SCOTT M. STRINGER - Borough President of Manhattan
KENNETH T. JACKSON - Editor, Encyclopedia of NYC
MICHAEL MISCIONE - Borough Historian of Manhattan
2007 is a milestone year for Green's legacy. It marks the 150th anniversary of the creation of the Board of Commissioners of the Central Park. Led by Green, this commission became New York City's first comprehensive planning body and the tool with which Green began his transformation of Gotham. Central Park, Riverside Park, the American Museum of Natural History, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the street layout and improvements north of 155th Street and, most importantly, the consolidation of the five boroughs all came to pass largely thanks to the visionary planning that Green pioneered through the park commission.
Visit andrewhgreen.net to learn more about Green and this event. Additional speakers may be added to the program.
The event will take place at the Andrew H. Green Memorial Bench inside Central Park at about 105 St. It is very difficult to find and is not marked on most park maps, so follow the directions below or consult the map at andrewhgreen.net.
Beginning at Fifth Ave. and E. 102 St., enter Central Park via the automobile entrance road. Bear right, merging on to the main drive. Continue north on the drive for about two blocks. When you come to the standing three-sided map on your left, turn left on to the wide, well-paved crossover road that heads to the West Side. Take an immediate right turn on to the blacktop footpath that heads uphill. Bear right as you walk along the path. The bench is at the top of the hill.
If inclement weather threatens, check andrewhgreen.net for the status of the event.

JERUSALEM, Israel -- On the first day of his trip to Israel, President Obama promised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the United States is committed to the security of its closest Mideast ally.
The visit is dubbed "Unbreakable Alliance." Some have called it a charm offensive. According to polls, many Israelis don't trust Obama. But Obama said it's his chance to connect with the Israeli people.
"I see this visit as an opportunity to reaffirm the unbreakable bond between our nations, to restate America's unwavering commitment to Israel's security and to speak directly to the people of Israel and to your neighbors," Obama said.
To emphasize America's security commitment, Obama viewed an Iron Dome anti-missile battery a project the United States helped to develop.
Meanwhile, Israelis ministers expressed their hopes for the visit.
"He's just had a very good start. The president's speech was I think very successful, a very good speech, very friendly and let me say very pro-Zionist speech about Jewish heritage, about Jewish state, about the very strong bonds," Israeli Cabinet minister Yuval Steinitz said.
"The security ties and economic ties and more than anything the joint values are the real bond between the two peoples and I do hope this very exciting visit will be translated into a set of very positive actions," Habayit Hayehudi party leader Naftali Bennett said.
Israeli television diplomatic reporter Udi Segal says the region changed during Obama's first term.
"After four years of a lot of disappointment, shift of power here that Egypt became an Islamic country, I think Obama understands that he needs to speak first to the people of Israel, to the leader of Israel," Segal said.
From the start both Israel and the United States Downplayed any idea of major breakthroughs.
"The president is not coming as previous presidents have, either to lobby for a specific policy in the way that only U.S. presidents can do or to take a victory lap upon the success of a policy," Ed Rettig, American Jewish Committee director of Israel and Middle East policies, said.
Still there's need for serious discussion.
"I think that Iran is probably the biggest issue and I presume Obama will say the same things he's been saying," said former Ambassador Alan Baker, director of the Institute for Contemporary Affairs at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs
Then there's the stalled Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
President Obama is scheduled to visit Palestinian Authority-controlled Ramallah on Thursday. Then on Friday, he visits the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. There Palestinians showed their disappointment with the president's first term by trashing a giant poster of Obama on Tuesday.
"He doesn't do anything for the Palestinian people. He just talks and doesn't do anything," a Palestinian named Rashid said. Rana, another Palestinian, echoed his sentiments. "I think there is no help from Obama to our situation in Palestine because they always talk and there is no result," she said. But another resident named Daoud said there's hope. "We got hope, always we got hope in the trip," he said. One analyst said it may just turn out that the most important part of the visit is that it happened.

Innovative ideas for mobiles
I just heard about two interesting innovations. The thingCHARGER and Reviveaphone. Both are thoughtful solutions to problems people have. These are not really ground-breaking technologies, but they are creative solutions to somewhat common problems. I personally know people who have had their phones immersed and I'd be willing to bet that 80% of the people on campus have needed a charger for their phone.
This makes me wonder: How do you classify something as innovative? While these are new ideas, they aren't so radical that someone would say, "I never would have thought of that." So what is innovation? I think innovation is taking the next step to improve some aspect of life, whether that's learning something new, completing a task, or some kind of process.

Web page accessibility
Earlier, I posted about OpenDyslexic, a font that makes it easier for a person with dyslexia to read. While I don't advise anyone to change their course materials to use the font, they should certainly be aware of it.
People who create, post or publish anything online should also be aware of other issues with fonts or typefaces. WebAIM has a great article about typography and making it easier for people to read.

ChemicalSams on open internet testing
Aaron Sams, the Woodland Park educator who has been flipping his instruction for years, discusses the four or five kinds of students he has in his classes, based on how they use the world wide web for taking tests (or don't).
Basically, there are students who know how to use the tools, students who don't know how to use web-based tools and students who just don't care. Sams doesn't discuss student cheating, but his conclusions and reflections address other problems I think every teacher has.
Two of his points were especially poignant:
2. I really need to change the way I assess my students. The Purists, The Google Challenged, and The Disinterested have not benefitted from open-internet tests. I need a better way to assess the understanding of the Google Challenged and the Disinterested, and I need to be able to explore the upper limits of The Purists.
3. My students continue to treat tests as a means to acquire the sufficient number of points to obtain the letter grade that will keep their parents off of their backs. They do not treat them as the diagnostic tool needed to help me determine what a student knows and can do.
This was my problem in school. Most often, I didn't really care about what I was learning, I just wanted a grade that would demonstrate my "mastery" of the subject and keep future opportunities open to me. What must be done to truly engage a student like me or one who doesn't even care enough to try on tests?

Student Research
I recently read about an interaction between employers and a college professor. The professor asked what the employers look for when hiring. In essence, the employers said they look for real world experience.
Not their GPA.
Not their test scores or transcripts.
Their what-have-you-done files…
Providing real experience has become the task of the school, and it's one that has barely been embraced.
via Do your graduates have a what-they-have-done file? | Dangerously Irrelevant.
That's not quite true. Here at CC, we want to increase student research and faculty/student collaboration. Part of the glory of the block plan is that students can go into the field and do research to generate a "what-have-you-done" file.

MOOC Students Who Got Offline Help Scored Higher, Study Finds – The Chronicle of Higher Education
This really isn't news, per se, but it is proof of something our friends in the Writing Center have known for a long time. I suspect that students in any class, whether online or offline, will benefit from getting help outside class…
For online learners who took the first session of "Circuits & Electronics," the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's hallmark MOOC, those who worked on course material offline with a classmate or "someone who teaches or has expertise" in the subject did better than those who did not, according to a new paper by researchers at MIT and Harvard University.
The research, published this week by the journal Research & Practice in Assessment

Does the world want our MOOCs?
Oh, burn! What a disappointment to think that "we" don't have all the answers.
Inside Higher Ed reports that:
Online higher education is increasingly hailed as a chance for educators in the developed world to expand access and quality across the globe.
Yet it may not be quite so easy. Not only does much of the world not have broadband or speak English, but American-made educational material may be unfit for and unwanted in developing countries, according to academics who have worked for years on online distance education and with open educational resources, or OER.

Students Launch "Button" to Put Denied Access to Research on the Map | Open Access Button
One lament I have as a student and researcher is that my library often does not have full text access to a journal. Being the info geek that I am, I have access to various databases (my public library, the school I attend, and of course the databases here at Colorado College). As a last resort, I could even email my siblings at UC Davis to see if they can access the article. These students have created a button to help visualize the problem with access to academic journal articles.
Today, at an international meeting of student advocates for expanded access to academic research, two undergraduates from Great Britain announced the highly-anticipated launch of The Open Access Button – a browser-based tool to map the epidemic of denied access to academic research articles, and help users find the research they need.

Injury and Education: Speech Recognition
An injury can make learning difficult, especially on the block plan. A concussion, if untreated, can permanently harm a student's ability to think and react. Treatment usually involves complete boredom: limiting stimulus and light (no music, no reading, no watching things) for a long time. (Here's an effective test for concussion) and here's Kristi Erdahl's study on concussion testing.
Other students are physically injured – imagine trying to type papers with a broken wrist or arm; imagine trying to participate in a geology field course with a broken leg.
One tool for getting around an inability to type is speech recognition software. Windows (Vista and later) and Android (later versions are better) come with speech recognition built-in and do a pretty good job. There's also Siri for iOS and a free Nuance Dragon app.
Google Chrome also has voice recognition and there's an app, Dictanote, which will even recognize multiple languages (Spanish, German, and several others!), which could be especially useful for students in upper-level language classes. Dictanote is available online and offline as a Chrome app. Continue reading: Injury and Education: Speech Recognition

"The Shutdown", Research, Spatial labs, and GIS at CC.
Sixteen days doesn't sound all that long, but here at CC, September 30th was the start of Block Two as well as the start of the 2013 Government shutdown. How exactly does this impact education at a small liberal arts college…
In my world of GIS, spatial inquiry and analysis, information is king. The vast majority of the daily used spatial datasets are housed by the government, on the 30th all these online data warehouses went offline. This potentially could have put a halt to all B2 courses using GIS as a tool for investigation of classroom topics. B2: The GIS lab was supporting five courses as well as a large civic engagement project being done by a recent CC graduate, and a number senior thesis capstone projects and faculty collaborative research projects. Just a typical block in the GIS lab.
It wasn't all doom and gloom as the GIS lab is well stock piled with data (72+ Terabytes). With some quick footwork and some late nights all courses and research continued with little downtime. This really helped illustrate how well equipped the GIS lab is for data.
The following are small highlight to illustrate some of the more popular heavily used data sets that we house on my GIS servers. We have a lot more which would take too long to list, so all you need to do is ask.
Demographic and Lifestyle data:
1. Esri 2012/2017 Updated Demographics – 2012 estimates and five-year projections for population, households, income, and housing; delivered in Census 2010 geographic boundaries
2. Esri 2012 Consumer Spending – Consumer spending patterns for a variety of goods and services, including apparel, food, financial services, household goods, and recreation; delivered in Census 2010 geographic boundaries
3. Esri 2012 Tapestry Data – Lifestyle data for US residential neighborhoods based on socioeconomic and demographic characteristcs; delivered in Census 2010 geographic boundaries.
4. 2010 Census Data – Complete population counts from Census 2010 combining the PL94-171 file and variables from Summary File 1 (SF1); delivered in Census 2010 geographic boundaries.
5. 2006/2010 American Community Survey – Population, school and work, households, and housing characteristics; delivered in Census 2010 geographic boundaries.
Digital Elevation Model Datasets:
1. We have compiled and mosaic'd complete DEMs for the following states at the 30 meter resolution – Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Utah, and Wyoming.
2. We have complied and mosaic'd complete DEMs at the 10 meter resolution for almost the counties of Colorado, as well as a few in Wyoming and New Mexico.
3. We have compiled and mosaic'd complete DEMs at the 90 meter resolution for the entire US Rocky Mountain region including Mexico and the west coast of the continental US.
Hydrology Datasets:
1. We have complete detailed hydro line datasets for the US
2. We have detailed Hydraulic Units (polygons) for Colorado and the Rocky Mountain Region.
Aerial Imagery:
1. We have high resolution aerial photography for all counties in Colorado.
In other words the GIS lab at CC is ALWAYS open for collaborative research and classroom spatial inquiry.
Stop on down to Palmer 1 and check us out.
Matt – your friendly neighborhood GIS guy.

Mobile lecturing and class feedback – engaged teaching/learning
EDUCAUSE is a gathering of educators who use technology. This yearly conference just happened last week (October 15-18, 2013) and several of the poster presenters put their materials online.
One presenter, Perry Samson of the University of Michigan, uses SpashTop and LectureTools to gather realtime feedback from his class as he's walking around the room lecturing from his iPad.
Here's a video of his presentation and here's the EDUCAUSE page on the poster presentation. It sounds like these tools have helped him engage his students more and perhaps even engage himself more as a teacher, as he can more effectively teach his students.

This post is part of Mosaic's New Age of Energy Campaign. The campaign highlights the recent groundbreaking technological and financial developments that have recreated the clean energy landscape. Check out the campaign's home page to view all of the exciting developments, vote for your favorite, and be entered into the sweepstakes to win an awesome BirkSun solar backpack.
Germany is the world leader in solar energy and the number of clean energy workers has doubled there over the last few years to nearly 400,000. Most importantly, Germany has added more jobs in clean energy than they've cut in fossil fuels.
A similar story is taking place in the U.S. In 2012, the solar energy industry added nearly 14,000 jobs, growing by 13%. That's six times more than the rest of the economy and makes it one of the fastest growing industries in the country. With over 120,000 employees in solar power, there are now more people employed to create solar than to mine coal.
Clean energy is even outpacing natural gas growth – Massachusetts recently reported that they've added 80,000 clean energy jobs since 2011, nearly triple the 30,000 jobs Pennsylvania has added since the shale gas boom.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 3.4 million (broadly defined) "green jobs" in 2011. This accounts for about 1 in 50 jobs in the U.S. and should continue to grow as industries like solar expect to double over the next few years.
If you believe in the job creating potential of solar energy, you can help create solar projects by investing with Mosaic!
Monday: Clean energy has created millions of jobs
Tuesday: Famous conservatives are vocally supporting renewables
Wednesday: Clean energy is a better investment than you think
Thursday: Clean energy is beating fossil fuels with six times fewer subsidies
Friday: Solar is 99% cheaper than it used to be
Saturday: More people than ever have access to clean energy
Sunday: Germany leads the world in solar and gets as much sun as Alaska

Dita Von Teese's Dog Dies
After what must have been a harrowing day looking for her lost dog, Dita Von Teese announced Tuesday morning that her 19-year-old dachshund, Eva, had died.
"My dog Eva is missing," Von Teese first Tweeted on Monday. "Good thoughts for her return are also appreciated."
But the red-haired dachshund would not return. "My beloved Eva passed on tonight," Von Teese announced early Tuesday morning. "Thank you for all your kind words. It means a lot to me."
No other information about Eva's death was given.
Eva was one of the burlesque star's four pets, and occasionally accompanied Von Teese to events and photo shoots. Von Teese even had a cheeky portrait commissioned of her animal crew, including one of Eva and her departed dachshund pal Greta.
Artist Carol Lew told PEOPLE that Von Teese "just loves her animals – that was so clear. She knew their personalities so well."

EEAS Building, 9A Rond Point Schuman - 1000 Brussels
EEAS Building, 9A Rond Point Schuman - 1000 Brussels
The EU seeks to strengthen and deepen further its privileged partnership with Chile, which is based on an extensive convergence of common values and objectives at international level.
Relations between the EU and Chile are very good, built initially on the 1996 Framework Cooperation Agreement, which established a political and economic Association between the two partners. The 2002 EU-Chile Association Agreement (fully in force since 2005) was at that time an ambitious and innovative agreement that still provides a comprehensive framework for the main aspects of EU-Chile relations, i.e. political, trade and cooperation.
The Agreement provides for political dialogue meetings which have taken place regularly at all levels since 2003. Most recently, in November 2012, President Piñera of Chile paid an official visit to the EU institutions in Brussels, where he met Presidents Barroso [62 KB] and Van Rompuy [81 KB] .
The Agreement also provides for bi-annual meetings of a ministerial Association Council - the most recent was the V EU-Chile Association Council , held in Brussels in October 2011 – and for annual meetings of the EU-Chile Association Committee at the level of senior officials. The 11th meeting of the Association Committee [64 KB] took place on 3 October 2013 in Brussels and marked the 10th anniversary of implementation of the EU-Chile Association Agreement.
There are also EU-Chile agreements on Chemical Precursors, Science and Technology Cooperation, and Air Transport; and dialogues on human rights, employment and social policies, and regional policy. In June 2011, letters of intention were signed to develop cooperation in six new fields: tourism; SME policy; industrial cooperation; cooperation on standardisation; raw materials; and ground navigation by satellite and Earth observation.
Chile is one of only two South American countries to have participated in the EU Military Operation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, ALTHEA, concluding for that purpose an ad hoc participation agreement.
The EU-Chile Free Trade Agreement (which entered into force in 2003 and is the trade pillar of the EU-Chile Association Agreement) has spurred a major increase in the bilateral trade flow throughout the past decade. The EU is Chile's second trade partner, with 15.4% of Chile's total bilateral exchanges, behind China (20%) but ahead of the US (15.3%). The past decade has seen sustained growth in EU-Chile trade flows. Trade shows a positive annual average growth of 13% between 2003 and 2011, with total trade in goods doubling from €7.7 billion to €18.3 billion. The EU is the main source of Foreign Direct Investment in Chile with 37% between 1974 and 2010 (an accumulated €77 billion), followed by the USA with 26% and Canada with 18%. Chile is the EU's fourth FDI recipient in Latin America (behind Brazil, Mexico and Argentina) and accounts for 3.4% of all EU FDI outflows between 2006 and 2009.
In light of Chile's economic performance, the EU decided in 2011 to "graduate" Chile from bilateral cooperation in order to explore together new forms of cooperation more suited to Chile´s situation and stature (e.g. a member of the OECD since 2010). Chile remains eligible for cooperation under thematic, regional and sub-regional cooperation programmes.

How Mark Twain's 'Dead' came to life
Mark Twain, the toast of Broadway?
'Twas true briefly in 2007, when Twain made his belated -- really, really belated -- Broadway debut with the comedy "Is He Dead?"
The master American humorist wrote the play in 1898, just 12 years before his death, but it was never produced or published. Twain scholar Shelly Fisher Fishkin, a Stanford University professor, discovered the manuscript amid a drawerful of plays at the University of California-Berkley's Bancroft Library in 2002.
"It was rough going until I got to the end," Fishkin told the Stanford Report in December 2007. "The penultimate play was 'Is He Dead?', which I read in manuscript form.
"I started giggling in the archives. I realized this had enormous potential. But it was also still in pretty rough form, and Twain recognized that. He knew that it was going to need a playwright more experienced than he to get it into shape."
Noted playwright David Ives ("All in the Timing") adapted Twain's work for Broadway, and Michael Blakemore ("Noises Off") directed.
Variety, noting Blakemore's mastery of farce, gave the play a positive review.
"Twain attempts nothing so complex (as 'Noises Off'), but he does ladle on all the required ingredients of outrageous deceit, improbable disguises, cheeky sexual innuendo, silly melodrama and escalating confusion, whipping it all together with humor that mixes rascally wit with broad physical comedy," wrote David Rooney.
Norbert Leo Butz starred in "Is He Dead?" as Jean Francois-Millet, a French painter who is convinced faking his own death will drive up prices of his works.
Millet, however, does not disappear. He becomes Widow Daisy Tullou -- a made-up twin sister -- so he can witness what transpires.
Fishkin told the Stanford Report that Twain wrote the comedy between dark times in his life.
"He had just come out of mourning for his daughter Susy," she said. "He had also just come out of a really difficult bankruptcy. He celebrated by writing something unlike anything he'd ever written. It's a wild, over-the-top, cross-dressing, clean French farce -- always something of an oxymoron in those days."
Erie native Jeff Steinbrink -- a Twain scholar and English literature professor at Franklin & Marshall College -- said the play originated as a short story titled "Is He Living or Is He Dead?"
"It's well told, and it's modest and kind of funny in its way. Sweet," Steinbrink said. "Somehow, he later developed that into a play."
It's not a Twain work that will ever be confused with "Huckleberry Finn," "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" or his other masterpieces.
"It would have to be (considered) minor in the sense that this is a piece that lay dormant," Steinbrink said. "He wrote it pretty late in his life, and it never saw the light of day, as far as I know."
Not until Fishkin unearthed it and published it in 2003. According to the Stanford Report, she worked at the behest of the Mark Twain Foundation in rehearsals for the Broadway play to make sure it retained Twain's voice and spirit.
"Is He Dead?" didn't quite become a box-office smash. It played for just 105 performances. But it lives on through community theaters like the Erie Playhouse, where it opens this weekend.

Welp: Spurs sign Tracy (bleeping) McGrady for playoff run
One of the most drama-filled years in San Antonio's recent history has just hit its peak.
The Spurs, fresh off releasing Stephen Jackson, have signed Tracy McGrady with just one game remaining in the season. Yes, that Tracy McGrady.
Formerly a brilliant scorer and young NBA superstar, T-Mac has averaged 25 points, 7.2 rebounds and 5.1 assists this season while playing for Qingdao of the Chinese Basketball League, but he's back in United States because 'YOLO,' basically. If waiving Jack was a shocker, signing the 33-year-old — 67 in basketball years — with the postseason right around the corner is nearly enough to make you spit your drink all over your sandwich at lunch (which basically just happened). It's yet another bizarre sequence of events in a season full of them for San Antonio.
On the surface, it's headline-grabbing just because of his name. But if you dig only a little deeper you'll find the signing of McGrady makes perfect sense for a team now lacking this exact type of player.
San Antonio was basically void of a backup small forward (Matt Bonner hilariously started at the position last night with Kawhi Leonard sitting) after the dismissal of Jackson. So signing a versatile forward like McGrady to the mix allows the Spurs to stay big on the perimeter while adding a complete skill-set to a group that is in need of help at the moment. T-Mac is capable of playing both forward and guard positions and is an exceptional passer at 6-foot-8. But he was always known for his massive scoring nights as a member of the Orlando Magic.
McGrady led the league in scoring in two consecutive seasons a decade ago, but those days are long gone. If anything, the way he plays now is a sort of hybrid between what Boris Diaw does and what Jack did, except likely with a bit more punch in the points category. With the way Jack shot the ball this season and Diaw's reluctance to score, any additional contributions would help. At worst, T-Mac is better than the empty chair at the end of the 15-man bench.
To be clear: this is not the McGrady of old. This is the one we saw struggle to score during his last stint in the Association, and this is the one who hasn't been on an NBA team all season. For now, temper your expectations. Given his lack of system familiarity, minutes will likely be scarce, especially considering Pop's plan to play Leonard big minutes come playoff time.
But there's
off the record reason to believe this move has been in the making for a while now. The Spurs' decision to cut Jack might not have been as abrupt as some might believe, and perhaps the thought of signing McGrady before the playoffs crept in a while back. By the way, T-Mac is playoff-eligible because he was not on an NBA roster after the March 1 deadline. Or at any time this year, for that matter.
With a banged-up Tony Parker and no Diaw or Ginobili to speak of, McGrady will have a role of leadership off the bench, something San Antonio has been lacking in recent weeks. Still, there have been peculiar moves made in the last week by a team contending for its fifth title in franchise history. Is this just an insurance policy? Do the Spurs expect McGrady to contribute right away, and if so, are they turning to a newly signed player so late in the season because the internal problems are greater than expected? Or has San Antonio really found another piece to the puzzle?
Only time will tell.
If anything, it's just those spotlight-hogging Spurs keeping the cameras on themselves for just a little longer.

Woman adopts cat she found injured
The woman who found a young female cat that was soaked in flammable liquid, bound with electrical tape and burned, has adopted the animal.
According to Dr. Mike Alberts, the owner of Cedar Creek Animal Clinic, the woman found the feline about 8:30 p.m. Oct. 18 in a flowerbed in the Orchard Heights neighborhood.
The woman's neighbor, who works at Cedar Creek Animal Clinic, brought the cat in for treatment.
Alberts said the woman wants to remain anonymous.
He said the cat is responding to treatment and could be released later this week or early next week.
Alberts said Tuesday the cat is healing and will remain in the animal clinic a few more days.
"When we got the cat, it was severely hypothermic and it took about four hours to register a body temperature," Alberts said. "The cat is doing really well."
The cat lost part of both ears and suffered an injury to its right eye.
"We want to make sure the eye is okay without any complications," Alberts said.
The Kitsap Humane Society animal welfare division headed up an investigation on the incident.
Kelly Michaels, director of marketing for KHS, said Tuesday that the humane society conducted an investigation, but no one in the neighborhood claimed the cat or recalls seeing anyone in the area.
Anyone convicted of animal cruelty could face five years in jail and up to a $10,000 fine.
Individuals with information about the incident are asked to call 360-692-6977.

EDL Leader Exposed As Paedophile
These retards are a blight on our fair country. Let them rot in cells:
A leader of the English Defence League who was described as a political prisoner after being jailed for violence at a march had already been placed on the sex offenders register for downloading indecent images of children, The Times can reveal.
The far-right group launched a campaign to free Richard Price, co-ordinator of the West Midlands division of the EDL, after he was jailed last month for violent behaviour. But Price, 41, had been convicted in June 2010 of making four indecent images of children, and possessing cocaine and crack cocaine.
That conviction followed an earlier arrest in 2009 for public order offences believed to have been connected with EDL marches. Police were understood to have seized and analysed his computer, leading to the discovery of sexual images of children that he had downloaded. His home was also searched and the drugs were found.
Price admitted four counts of making indecent images of children and two charges of possessing cocaine when he appeared at Birmingham Crown Court. He was banned from owning a computer for a year, given a three-year community supervision order and ordered to sign on to the sex offenders register for five years.
Price, from Quinton, Birmingham, and Collum Keyes, 23, also from Birmingham, were among 12 people arrested when they surged through police lines during a protest in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, in May 2010.
When that case came to court in December, Price admitted using threatening behaviour. He was jailed for three months and given a ten-year Criminal Anti-Social Behaviour Order banning him from attending marches outside Birmingham. Keyes, who admitted disorderly conduct, was fined £150.
When Price was jailed, EDL members launched a campaign urging supporters to write to the Prime Minister and MPs to try to win justice for Richard Price, EDL.
The Aston Villa supporter, who has also been linked to football hooliganism, was even likened by his supporters to a modern-day John Bunyan, the Puritan Christian preacher and author of Pilgrims Progress who was jailed for continuing his sermons without the permission of the established Church in the 1600s.
But todays revelation that one of the EDLs leading members has been convicted of sex offences will come as a huge embarrassment to a group that has struggled to shrug off its reputation as a new version of the National Front.
In recent months, particularly following the political demise of the British National Party, the EDL has begun to attract more support. Its leader, who had previously used the alias Tommy Robinson, was traced by The Times and gave his first interview using his real name.
Stephen Lennon has vehemently denied that the group he started in Luton, Bedfordshire, is racist, saying that it has even set up a gay and lesbian division and given a prominent role to a Sikh supporter opposed to Islamic extremists.
Supporters of the EDL had claimed that Price became a political prisoner after he, along with Keyes, was banned from organising, controlling or travelling to any open-air protest outside Birmingham for ten years.
It was the first time a Criminal Anti-Social Behaviour Order, sought by Thames Valley Police in conjunction with the National Domestic Extremism Unit, had been issued to a demonstrator connected to the EDL.
Last month, a database of EDL supporters was published on the internet. Hackers had attacked the groups database of those who had made donations to the EDL and people who had bought clothing from its merchandise wing.

Lmao, what a anglo pedophile piece of shit.
But the fact is, most powerful people in government have a child fetish. Some rape them, some just like watching them burn and offer them as sacrifices to appease their god lucifer.
Uncivilized twats.

The award-winning band's latest CD, "Thrive," led by its title song speaks of growing deeper in faith and also reaching out to others. The band performed seven of the new songs, which lean on the metaphor of a tree rooting firmly and growing by a stream of water.
GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- The inspirational pop band Casting Crowns and lead singer Mark Hall wove the theme of their latest album throughout their music and spoken words Thursday at Van Andel Arena.
With their mix of guitars, and keyboard supplemented by violin and percussion, the faith-based ensemble used a variety of musical settings for its message-filled songs.
Yes, some of it was a little like church, which was fine with the faith-filled crowd.
"This is Now" and "All You Ever Wanted" are two its numerous selections that draw from Biblical stories or encouragements.
"God does not need you to be awesome for him….just to stay planted (in him)," Hall said.
The band used supportive video images which mixed concept video with live stage views of the performers. And every one of Casting Crowns songs featured its lyrics on screen for audience participation.
Keyboardist Megan Garrett is getting more band vocal duties these days. She sang lead on their classic "Who Am I?" and on the ballad "Does Anybody Hear Her"?
The self-effacing Hall ("I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be the biggest dork in heaven") is nevertheless effective in sharing Biblical insights which often are suggested in the music.
A youth pastor when he is not recording or performing, the singer-songwriter has a deep source for material which can end up in song.
The fan-friendly ballads "Voice of Truth" and "Praise You In This Storm" are affirming songs which not only proclaim the faith but encourage the faithful. The artists clicked on both of those songs Thursday.
"Dream For You" is another of the new songs. The uptempo tune with a big hook draws on stories of two Biblical characters in showing that God's dreams are bigger than mere human ones.
Casting Crowns' second set started off as an unplugged session (showcasing several of their older but well known songs), before they opened things up once again with their most power-pop moments of the evening in "Until the Whole World Hears."
Guitarists Juan DeVevo and Josh Mix got to play with some bigger riffs, and opening acts For King and Country and Laura Story joined Casting Crowns on stage for some extra fun.
Returning for an encore, Crowns offered "Praise You In This Storm" (perhaps their best-known standard) before closing with "One Day (Oh Glorious Day)," another song which draws from an older hymn.
Just after intermission, singer-songwriter Laura Story did a four-song set which included a solo keyboard rendition of her Grammy-winning ballad, "Blessings." The church worship leader also led the audience in the contemporary hymn, "Mighty To Save."
The evening was opened by For King and Country, the pop-rock band anchored by brothers Joel and Luke Smallbone. The percussion-heavy band scattered its members throughout the arena for one of the songs, "Middle of Your Heart."

A push by Texas lawmakers to ban "sanctuary cities" could end a visa program approved almost unanimously by Congress in 2000 to encourage illegal immigrants to cooperate with law enforcement, MySA.com reports today.
The U-visa falls under the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act, encouraging immigrants to report crime without fear of deportation. But now critics say HB 12 could reverse that.
"Contrary to arguments made by some, there is no conflict between U-visas and banning sanctuary city policies," U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, tells the San Antonio Express-News. "Illegal immigrant victims of crime will not be prevented from obtaining U-visas if sanctuary city policies are banned."
Still, San Antonio Police Chief William McManus and other law officials are lobbying against HB 12 and other "Arizona-style" bills they said would undermine cooperation.

aimeehanse We felt really lucky to find this new hostel - an idyllic stay in a large garden where we woke up among the swaying palms every morning, yet were just three minutes walk from the main square for restaurants. The couple, Fernanda and Peter, are really lovely and very welcoming, greeting us with smiles every time. The breakfasts were amazing, different each morning and using fruits from the garden. Our room was cleaned everyday, and we were given great advice on the best beaches for swimming. It was a great laid back stay, with a couple who clearly love what they are doing - and it makes all the difference. We had a brilliant time on our island escape.

Common ichthyosis; Fish scale disease
Your doctor will recommend heavy duty moisturizers. Creams and ointments work better than lotions. Apply these to moist skin immediately after bathing. You should use mild, non-drying soaps.
Your doctor may tell you to use moisturizing creams that contain chemicals that help skin to shed normally, including

Expectations (prognosis)
Ichthyosis vulgaris can be a nuisance, but it rarely affects your overall health. The condition usually disappears during adulthood, but may return years later.
A bacterial skin infection may develop if scratching causes openings in the skin.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
FRIDAY, June 28 (HealthDay News) -- The prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing seems to be increasing in the United States, according to a study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
Paul E. Peppard, Ph.D., from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and colleagues used data from the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort Study to estimate the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing in the United States for the periods of 1988 to 1994 and 2007 to 2010. Participants (1,520 adults aged 30 to 70 years) were randomly selected from an employed Wisconsin population and had undergone baseline polysomnography studies. Repeat studies were performed at four-year intervals. Moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing was defined as 15 or more events/hour, measured using the apnea-hypopnea index.
The researchers found that, for men, the current prevalence estimates of moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing were 10 percent for 30 to 49-year-olds and 17 percent for 50- to 70-year-olds. For women, the corresponding prevalence estimates were 3 and 9 percent.
"These estimated prevalence rates represent substantial increases over the last two decades (relative increases of between 14 percent and 55 percent depending on the subgroup)," the authors write.

What I love about my owners: Well I am writing for Miss Pee as you know but I loved her and she loved me.. she always was there when I was sad as we just knew when something was wrong with each other. Miss Pee was a strong cat and she never til the day she died showed me she was in pain, I think she knew it would kill me seeing her like that! She held on this long for me and I feel so bad that I didnt get her help sooner but 4 months before she had blood work and nothing came up, i guess it came so fast that by the time I knew it was too late!

Well my husband and I were together only a few months and I saw a pet shop so I went in..I found her in really bad condistions as she was sleeping in the cat box in her poop. I just couldnt leave her there and she was so beautiful. I knew right then and there she was meant to be with me for ever.. Miss Pee died November 8th 2006 at 12:30pm (3 days before my birthday) she had cancer and was having problems breathing so I had to do the right thing and put her down. I cant tell you how this was the hardest thing I have EVER had to do and I miss her so much.. *tears* I cant emagine the rest of my life without her. Gosh Miss Pee come back!! She was only 8 years old and had a long life ahead.. The main picture was taken of her the day she died.The night before she died I spent the hole night with her in my arms just holding her and being close.. I never watched Miss Pee die but I was there when she fell asleep and then I had to leave as I couldn't see her pass.. I was crying and screaming as it is was..and as she was falling asleep she turned to me because I was crying. :(
