The last preseason game before the real stuff starts in a week. Hooray.
The Thunder are expected to play their full complement of players, but with this being the last chance for the non-guaranteed guys to impress, there's potential to see a good bit of them as well. Maybe Scott Brooks will show his hand with playing time. Maybe the first half will mimic how he plans to approach his regular rotation for the season. Maybe we'll really learn something.
Tip is at 7:00 CT in Wichita. And on local TV too! Here's a stream for all you out-of-towners.

I didn't think I'd be able to sleep tonight. This situation called for some serious action in the form of comfort food. I was at the store, and it just seemed right:
|Yes, I planned to eat this, and nothing else, for dinner.
No, I don't feel bad about that even a bit.
|Confetti left over from a party?
Or my worst fears realized?
|Now I've to go vaccuum, and try to soak the milk out of the cushion.
Or, maybe I'll just get that new couch I've been eyeing... *sarcasm*RIIIIIGHT.
So, I did what I always do when I think I might just take a header off of rational thought and dive down into the land ruled by feelings and stress - I called my mom. She's the best. She talked me down, kept me from losing it, and walked me through some basic skills I should have mastered years ago. And then we just started talking, as the edge of panic left my voice. I don't remember exactly what led to this, but we both remembered it at the same time.
This movie is technically from 1979, but it was a staple in my home in the late 80's. We wore this movie out. So, after consulting the always-reliable wiki, amazon was the clear next choice. I needed to have this movie back in my life. But, Amazon says that I would have to pay $40+ for the privilege. Not going to happen, especially if I'm saving for that new couch.
Enter YouTube.
I've never been sure about this before, but now I know, and I want to shout it from the rooftops. I. ♥. YouTube. A lot.
In case you missed this jewel somehow growing up, here it is to share with you. This is only the first 10 minutes, but the other parts of the video are available to watch from there. Really, I only needed the first two minutes to feel like myself again. As the Polar Bear hot-stepped it across the desert carrying the Olympic torch, I could feel that (now) little ball of stress just plumb dissolve. Once the main players were announced, I was laughing and feeling like the next 72 hours (during which I'll cook a taste-test for a wedding I'm catering, clean my apartment, finish 2 school projects, close on our house, clean our house, and move into our new home, while entertaining, feeding, and enjoying various friends & relatives) were doable. Not even anything to worry about.
From me to you with love.

Integrated Device Technology (IDT) has announced the IDT 82V3910, which is the globe's lowest jitter synchronous Ethernet-compliant timing solution.
It is the first carrier-class SyncE-compliant phase-locked loop (LLP) tool that can reach the toughest 10G or 40G Ethernet PHY jitter requirements.
Recording a phase jitter below 300 femtoseconds RMs over the 10 kHz to 20 MHz integration range, the device provides 50 per cent less jitter than rivals in the market and substitutes multichip alternatives in order to decrease complications and cost.
The architecture boasts two independent digital PLLs (DPLLs), allowing bidirectional synchronisation for utility at the highest level as well as easier deployment among network supplies.
Furthermore, the DPLLs lock to range of telecom and Ethernet reference frequencies, suppressing incoming timing faults in order to generate highly-reliable output clocks for optimal network performance.
Christian Kermarrec, vice president and general manager of the Timing and Synchronization Division at IDT, said: "Our latest SyncE network timing devices combine IDT's industry-leading digital and analog PLL technologies to achieve the first integrated synchronisation solution addressing the large and fast-growing market for 10G and 40G applications.
"With jitter less than half that of competing products, the new clocking solutions offer our customers the ultimate in performance and versatility by supporting the most stringent low-jitter requirements found in 10G or 40G Ethernet applications.
"These devices complement IDT's rich timing portfolio, including RF and network PLLs, VCXOs, synthesizers, buffers, frequency translators and crystal oscillator replacement products."
The IDT 82V3910 also simplifies the timing circuit and bill of materials by supplying a synchronous equipment timing source function, managing all of the necessary synchronisation timing signals.
Furthermore, ultra-low jitter generation means that the 82V3910 is suitable for single-board systems, which is where SETs directly times 10G or 40G network PHYs.

Environmental Management
Environmental Management Committee
The Environmental Management Committee (EMC) meets on alternate months and consists of members of the Port's Senior Management, Operational Managers, Marine Managers and staff Environmental Representatives who consider environmental matters of interest, concern or strategic importance to activities and performance throughout the organisation. The EMC reports through the Senior Management Team to the Port's Board of Directors.
Environmental Manager
The Environmental Manager is responsible for developing the Environmental Management System across the organisation. The Environmental Manager provides specialist advice and environmental support services to all operational activities throughout the Port. The Environmental Manager represents the Port upon environmental matters and provides the primary environmental liaison with external organisations, regulators, and members of the public. The Environmental Manager has line management reporting responsibilities to the Engineering Director.
Environmental Representatives
The Environmental Reps volunteer their services and are the local champions of, and encourage good environmental practice within the work place. They act as the eyes and ears regarding environmental matters at the sharp end. They assist in maintaining the profile and momentum of environmental improvement within the organisation. They ensure a sense of balance in the Environmental Management System and ensure communications do not become top-down only, or one directional. They assist in completing environmental concern reporting and also other environmental initiatives, either directly through the Corporate Risk Assurance Framework Event Reports or through the 'Eureka' staff suggestion scheme. Environmental Reps participate in the Environmental Management Committee (EMC) meetings.
Work Site Inspections
A programme of worksite H&S inspections is established at year-end for the following year. HSE site inspections include an environmental component and cover all operational and business support sites which are visited, as a minimum on a bi-monthly basis. Each inspection involves the Environmental Manager who produces an Environment Site/Workplace Inspection Report which includes Observations and Corrective Actions aimed at ensuring legislative compliance and encouraging best practice. The Environmental site inspection report is circulated to the site manager for actioning and comment. Any outstanding or unresolved actions are entered remaining prior to the bi-monthly Environmental Management Committee meeting (see above), are added to the Assurance Framework Event Control Register which is discussed as a standing agenda item at each EMC.
Environmental Risk Management
The primary routes for the identification and mitigation of environmental risk are:
The Environmental Aspects and Impacts Register
HSE Worksite Inspections
Corporate Risk Management Assurance Framework Event Reports
Inclusion within the Business Risk Registers

Q: I have had my guinea pig for about three years. I thought I should get him a playmate, so I bought a male rabbit to live with my guinea pig. After they lived together for awhile, my rabbit started trying to mount my guinea pig; this really frightened my guinea pig, so I separated them. I'm wondering about getting my guinea pig another playmate. Do you think this is a good idea? If so, what kind of animal should I get?
A: A guinea pig that acts lonely or won't interact or come out of its house may need a friend. Ideally a guinea pig would do best with its own species because guinea pigs are herd animals.
It is possible to have a guinea pig neutered, so you could get your guinea pig a female guinea pig companion once he is fixed. It is rare to find a spayed female guinea pig because this is still a risky surgery; it is easier to have a male guinea pig neutered.
If neuter surgery is too costly or you do not wish to risk it, it is possible to find a male guinea pig as your pet's companion. A guinea pig that's a bit younger than your own often works well.
Try introducing the guinea pigs on location so that if they do not get along you know right away. You may have to try several guinea pigs before finding the one that best meshes with your guinea pig's personality. It is just like interviewing someone to move in as a roommate for yourself. You don't always mesh with the first person through the door.
When a guinea pig male meets another male guinea pig they pace around each other smelling under the chin (Are you a friend?) and around the bottom (What is your rank in the herd?). This may continue for some time until one guinea pig permits the other to dominate it, usually by being mounted from behind.
If two guinea pigs are not going to mesh well, they purr and rumble around each other, chatter teeth and bump their head against the side of the other. They repeat this action and come back with hair in their mouth. They may even yawn at this point to show how big their teeth are before they go in for the final move of biting. They could roll around or kick up bedding. Any of these signs mean the guinea pigs are not going to get along. It may take several tries before a friend can be found. There may be a point when your guinea pig may just not want a companion and finds your company to be enough. If this happens, you will know because it will be apparent after time and trying to find a friend that your guinea pig's behavior shows it isn't interested in a guinea pig friend.
As you search for a friend for your guinea pig, stay within his own species so he will not be overwhelmed or feel threatened by the size of another animal, as in the case of a rabbit. Rabbits tend to be very territorial, kicking and biting when unhappy. A guinea pig's only defense is to flee, and it can be injured easily. Hamsters and gerbils are nocturnal and hate to be woken up, which might even shorten their lives. Ferrets are carnivores and would cause serious injury to a guinea pig, perhaps killing it instinctively. Chinchillas are also nocturnal and take dust baths, which might cause respiratory irritation for a guinea pig, making them a poor match. That then brings us back to guinea pigs as a natural companion and, ultimately, a companion your guinea pig can most identify with.

AAA Scholar-Athlete Program
The NCHSAA Scholar-Athlete program, one of the Association's most popular voluntary programs, recognizes excellence in the classroom as well as on the playing court or field. The program includes recognition of varsity teams that attain certain grades as well as individual athletes.
Individual Scholar-Athletes attain at least a 3.5 grade point average for the semester in which he or she competed. The award is based on first semester grades for fall and winter sports and second semester grades for spring sports, and the school submits the nomination form verifying the grade point average on behalf of the athlete or team.
In the team division, a varsity team earns Scholar-Athlete recognition by attaining a 3.1 aggregate GPA for that designated semester. The school receives a certificate honoring the accomplishment and each member of the squad also receives a certificate.
The teams with the top GPA's in the state in their respective sports are recognized at the NCHSAA Annual Meeting in May and will receive a plaque from AAA and NCHSAA.
AAA Carolinas, an affiliate of the American Automobile Association, was founded in 1922 as a not-for-profit organization that now serves more than 1.8 million members with travel, automobile and insurance services and is an advocate for the safety and security of all travelers.

I was sitting in the school office being interviewed for the position of school bus driver when the question finally emerged: "Why do you want to drive a school bus?" I knew it would come and I knew the right words to say. "Because I love children," I dutifully replied. The position was mine. I didn't love children, matter of fact, didn't even like them, but I needed the job. I had previously driven a school bus for about 18 years at a different location, and managing children, I felt, was the biggest drawback to the job. Needless to say, I was not very good at it. I decided I needed to try something different. I thought about it in the days before my new run would begin. In the past, no matter how much I yelled, screamed, threatened or shook my finger in the kids' faces, I could never make them behave.
I'll just pretend to like them
Let's face it, once they were behind those high-backed seats, they could pretty much do what they pleased. Seat slashing and graffiti were common. I decided that I would try my very hardest to pretend that I liked the kids. Maybe, just maybe, if they thought that I liked them, they would behave better. On the afternoon of my first day, I launched my plan. Instead of sitting in the driver's seat while the children boarded the bus from the school, I walked up and down the aisles and talked to the children. I heard many whispers — "Someone's in trouble" and "What did we do wrong?" I stopped at each child and commented on how nice new backpacks were, how pretty hair was, how cool new sneakers looked. I asked the kids their teachers' names. They were so shy that I thought maybe it wasn't going to work. I was going to try anyway. I continued my new plan throughout the week. By the end of the first week, the kids were comfortable with me and were asking questions back. By the end of the second week, I would pull up in front of the school, open the door and place myself in a seat in the middle of the bus. I would be swamped with children. "Bonnie, look what I made; see my new book; look what my teacher gave me." They clamored for my attention. When the time came for me to get behind the wheel and drive, I would say, "OK, down to business," and lo and behold, I would be rewarded with a very quiet, well-behaved busload of children. They wanted to be good for me. Pretending that I liked them seemed to be working. Then the day came when I was in a terrible mood. I almost called in sick but didn't want to use the sick day. I decided that I would just go and get my run over with. I pulled up in front of the school in a very foul mood. My first student boarded, and started chatting. With a heavy sigh, I got out of my seat, positioning myself in the middle of the bus. As the bus quickly filled, I was once again surrounded by the children. Before I knew it, the time came to drive. "OK, down to business" I said. As I pulled out of the school, I found myself smiling and humming, my bad mood all but forgotten.
. . . I really do like them
It was then I realized that not only did I like these children, but I had come to love them. I looked into my mirror at the well-behaved group of children that I had come to care for, and realized that a huge change had taken place. Not so much in them, but in me. I have come to the conclusion that the best way to get children to be good on the school bus is to make them want to be good for you. Although I stumbled on this very human approach by circumstance, it is guaranteed to work. There are some guidelines and responsibilities that go hand in hand with gaining children's respect and trust.

PDI, a healthcare commercialization company, signed a collaboration agreement with an unnamed molecular diagnostics company to commercialize that firm's tests. The initial test to be commercialized is fully developed.
PDI paid its new partner an initial fee of $1.5 million and has received an option to purchase the company. The option price is dependent on the achievement of certain milestones during the collaboration and could be up to $6 million if all milestones are achieved at their maximum levels.
If PDI purchases the company, in addition to the option price based on the achievement of milestones, beginning in 2015, PDI would pay a royalty of 7% on annual net revenue up to $50 million, with escalating royalty percentages for higher annual net revenue capped at 11% for annual net revenue in excess of $100 million.
"As we have previously stated, we have been pursuing commercialization opportunities for products aimed at adding more predictable, higher growth, higher margin businesses that can leverage the substantial full commercialization capabilities of PDI," said Nancy Lurker, CEO of PDI.
"For competitive reasons, at this time, we are not disclosing the name of our collaboration partner or the area of focus of the initial test we plan to launch. What we can say is that we believe the core technology of the test is unique and sound, the value to the health care system is potentially significant, the clinical value to patients is compelling, the accuracy of the test is high, and reimbursement from both private and public payors is expected to be very attractive," Lurker concluded.
Last year, PDI signed several multimillion dollar sales services contracts, including one to promote a CNS therapeutic product to neurologists and pain specialists and another targeting primary care physicians, pediatricians, and psychiatrists.

Think Again: Conservatives Prefer Reagan Fantasies to Reality (And So Did Reagan)
SOURCE: AP/stf
A bizarre incident took place during the "60 Minutes" interview with House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) on New Year's Day: When Leslie Stahl asked Rep. Cantor whether he would be willing to compromise with President Barack Obama to improve the legislative performance of the current Congress, Rep. Cantor responded: "Compromising principles, you don't want to ask anybody to do that. That's who they are as their core being."
When Stahl replied that President Ronald Reagan, Rep. Cantor's "idol," had compromised, Rep. Cantor stuck to his guns, replying, "He never compromised his principles."
Stahl, at the ready, answered, "Well, he raised taxes and it was one of his principles not to raise taxes."
Rep. Cantor, slightly flummoxed, came back with "Well, he—he also cut taxes."
And here things got interesting.
Rep. Cantor's press secretary, Brad Dayspring, began yelling from off screen, "That's not true. And I don't want to let that stand."
Stahl, in a taped voice-over, later added in the mildest language imaginable, and without any personal aspersions cast—"There seemed to be some difficulty accepting the fact that even though Ronald Reagan cut taxes, he also pushed through several tax increases, including one in 1982 during a recession."
President Reagan's voice was then heard to say, "Make no mistake about it, this whole package is a compromise," followed by Rep. Cantor, doubling down, "We as Republicans are not going to support tax increases."
The interview has generated a great deal of attention in the blogosphere. ThinkProgress jumped on it immediately, noting that President Reagan did not "compromise" just this once, but actually increased taxes "in seven of his eight years in office, including one stretch of four tax increases in just two years."
The site quoted the Nobel laureate economist Paul Krugman, noting that "no peacetime president has raised taxes so much on so many people."
The Washington Monthly's Steve Benen pitched in with his observation that the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, which was Reagan's biggest tax hike, is today "generally considered the largest tax increase—as a percentage of the economy—in modern American history."
Moreover, says Benen, "between 1982 and 1984, Reagan raised taxes four times, and as Bruce Bartlett has explained more than once, Reagan raised taxes 12 times during his eight years in office."
Benen believes that President Reagan's legacy makes contemporary conservatives "look ridiculous."
On MSNBC's "The Ed Show," Washington Post columnist Ezra Klein took a stab at explaining why this must be the case, noting that the grand poobah behind the "Reagan Legacy Project," and so much right-wing political thinking and organizing today, is Grover Norquist, who "has a vested interest in promoting the myth of 'Saint Ronnie the Tax Slayer' to justify his 'no new taxes ever' ideology."
This is true, but it misses what is really strangest about this incident.
It is actually unheard of for a press secretary to attempt anything like Dayspring's interruption, especially in so high profile a forum as "60 Minutes" and with a boss in as influential a position as Rep. Cantor. (It is especially crazy to do so in one in which the editing process allows the correspondent to have the last word.) To do so with a bald (and easily demonstrable) falsehood would be under almost any imaginable circumstances a firing offense, as it makes both men, politician and aide alike, appear uninformed, incompetent, and generally out to lunch.
Rep. Cantor's office did attempt to "clarify" Mr. Dayspring's outburst, insisting that it "referred to the cumulative effect of President Reagan's various tax increases and cuts, when added together."
Again, this is not the point. President Obama has lowered taxes more than he has raised them, and they are today lower than they were in President Reagan's time. But you don't hear conservatives crowing about that.
No, the real story here is the vehemence of the conservative movement's commitment to ignoring all forms of evidence that it finds inconsistent with its ideological preconceptions, regardless of circumstances or even consequences.
Ironically, tendency to ignore inconvenient facts and unwelcome evidence is actually President Reagan's true legacy, as I noted in The Nation back in 2000, before the current right-wing mania for President Reagan gained its full force. His worshipful, if fanciful, biographer Edmund Morris even called him an "apparent airhead." The president's famous cluelessness was so obvious during his years in office that his defenders would attempt to deploy it as a defense of his actions, as if he were a small child or a beloved, but retarded, uncle.
The president tended to "build these little worlds and live in them," noted a senior advisor. "He makes things up and believes them," explained one of his kids. President Reagan thought he'd liberated concentration camps. He invented what he called "a verbal message" from the pope in support of his Central America policies, news to everyone in Vatican City. In 1985 President Reagan one day announced that the vicious South African apartheid regime of P.W. Botha had already "eliminated the segregation that we once had in our own country." And note that I have not even mentioned the words "Iran Contra," a scandal that was filled with more presidential lies than one can comfortably recount here.
President Reagan's preference for fantasy over fact was evident from the first moments of his presidency. "In the early years of Reagan rule," as the libertarian author Murray Rothbard notes, "the press busily checked out Reagan's beloved anecdotes, and found that almost every one of them was full of holes. But Reagan never veered from his course."
This strategy proved so successful that it became a template for the modern conservative movement, and hence underlies its leaders' statements on virtually every topic from economics to the environment to the beliefs of this country's founders.
This explains why Mr. Dayspring still has a job, as well as why his particular error was made in the service of protecting the phony public image of an alleged secular saint—insofar as contemporary conservatives would have it—who is actually an almost pathological liar. It is a shame for Americans, liberals, and conservatives both that increasingly our right wing does care to recognize the difference. And it is our media's shame that such lies are rarely, if ever, identified as such. So one must conclude that in the isolated case of Leslie Stahl and "60 Minutes," we must be grateful for small favors.

liblrdf, redland, traverso and other trouble...
Hello, I am trying to build some QT-apps and other stuff whithout any success. Traverso needs LV2 but libslv2 cannot be build because: checking for LV2CORE... yes checking for redland-config... no configure: error: REDLANDMM requires Redland (librdf), but redland-config not found. this is just one case of many: I love 64S fort its formidable performance but if it comes to build from source it is major trouble... So - maybe someone has something to offer, like fixes, workarounds, secret repos, hope for the future? :-)
I don't build QT apps regularly... tend to stick to what is available already and if I build these is is normally a tedious process involving using Synaptic and installing the dependencies one by one when the configure scripts ask for them. Most of these development packages resides in the 64studio etch-backports repository. Good luck
Nobody else have tried to built Qtractor etc?
I wonder if anybody else builds Stuff like Qtractor or Rosegarden from Source in 64Studio - or is it me, that does everything wrong and all you lucky .... build QT-Apps dayly whithout any trouble ;-)

Gloucestershire make leaders pay
Click here for exclusive match highlights from every day's play, latest scores, reports, news and interviews during the LV= County Championship campaign
Division Two leaders Derbyshire were put firmly in their place by lowly Gloucestershire on the opening day of the LV= County Championship match at Bristol.
Yet to lose a four-day game this season and well clear of their nearest rivals going into this game, the surprise early-season front-runners were shot out for just 95 inside 33 overs – their lowest score of the summer - after winning the toss.
Gloucestershire extended their advantage on a true pitch, New Zealand batsman Kane Williamson and skipper Alex Gidman posting half-centuries to help the home side reach the close on 182 for five, already 87 runs ahead.
Derbyshire's hitherto in-form batsmen succumbed to a combination of poor shot selection, suicidal running between and disciplined bowling from a Gloucestershire seam attack that adhered admirably to the tenets of line and length.
Their previous lowest championship score this season – 130 against Glamorgan at SWALEC Stadium in April – was already beyond the visitors after they lurched to lunch at 83 for eight.
Gloucestershire's decision to recall David Payne following injury paid immediate dividends, the left-armer undermining Derbyshire's top-order during an incisive spell of 3-21.
The former England Under-19 international extracted additional bounce to remove in-form opener Martin Guptill, the New Zealander deflecting a short delivery onto his stumps, and then saw skipper Wayne Madsen edge to second slip.
In between those dismissals, left-hander Matt Lineker - playing instead of Paul Borrington - offered a regulation catch behind, forced into front foot indiscretion by a ball of full-length.
Instead of learning their lesson, Derbyshire's batsmen continued to adopt an aggressive approach against the swinging ball and succumbed to a blistering spell from Will Gidman shortly before lunch.
Gloucestershire's talented all-rounder claimed 4-28 from eight overs, including a spell of three wickets in seven balls.
Dan Redfern mis-timed a pull shot and was brilliantly held at deep square-leg by Ian Saxelby and Wes Durston - cutting - was caught by Chris Dent at second slip.
David Wainwright lost his off stump to a ball that left him and Tom Poynton offered a catch at the wicket as the visitors slumped from 63 for two to 83 for eight at lunch.
Saxelby weighed in with the wicket of Jonathan Clare, his reward for a superbly-controlled effort from the Pavilion End.
Derbyshire added to their problems in the afternoon session, Tony Palladino needlessly running out Ross Whiteley and then succumbing in similarly hapless fashion himself.
Although Gloucestershire openers Jonathan Batty – promoted up the order due to a broken finger suffered by Chris Dent – and Benny Howell departed cheaply, Alex Gidman and Williamson confirmed the hosts' superiority in a third-wicket stand of 81 in 30.5 overs.
Williamson had raised an eye-catching 56 from 112 balls, including 10 fours, when Groenewald found his outside edge, wicketkeeper Poynton taking a brilliant catch.
Hamish Marshall was bowled by Whiteley for 31 and nightwatchman Liam Norwell fell to the same bowler in the penultimate over as Derbyshire staged a late fightback.
The resolute Gidman - who raised 50 from 125 balls - was still there at stumps on 72 not out.

In their quest to attract more business and industry to the Lowcountry, local leaders point out the area colleges and universities.
Charleston City Council just gave them something additional to tout.
Besides the Medical University of South Carolina, the College of Charleston, The Citadel, Charleston Southern University, the Charleston School of Law and Trident Technical College, 20 colleges have programs here.
One of the most interesting and promising is the American College of the Building Arts (ACBA). And thanks to a vote Tuesday by Charleston City Council, that college will have a permanent home on peninsula Charleston where it can grow and flourish.
Some council members had expressed concerns about whether the city would receive enough in return for selling the historic Trolley Barn property to the school for $10. And Councilman James Lewis questioned whether it would benefit people who live near the site, at 628 Meeting Street.
The answers are "yes" and "yes."
ACBA, the only college in the world to offer the four-year Bachelor in Applied Science in Building Arts degree, is uniquely suited to Charleston, where historic buildings are restored and treasured. Students study traditional craftsmanship with iron, wood and trowel - craftsmanship that was used when Charleston's 18th and 19th century houses and buildings were being constructed.
The college's courses of instruction prepare students for careers in architecture, design, preservation and construction - all of which can relate to historic preservation.
As for the neighborhood, the ACBA will restore the trolley barn, which has fallen into disrepair. Part of the property will be sold to a development company that plans to use it for dormitory, office and business space.
And the college has pledged to provide an annual scholarship to a resident of the Charleston Housing Authority, which has housing in the vicinity.
ACBA currently has an enrollment of 37, but with a new home designed specifically to accommodate it, school officials expect that number to grow.
Then there are the benefits that are trickier to quantify - jobs, community service, diversity and intellectual stimulation.
Colleges have a significant impact on the community's prosperity. According to the Charleston Regional Development Alliance, The Citadel, the College of Charleston, MUSC and Trident Tech together inject $1.9 billion directly into the local economy.
ACBA is tiny by comparison, but it too enhances the economy, and should be able to do more as it grows in its new building.
The school has been using the old City Jail on Magazine Street. As part of the deal approved by City Council, the same developer, Parallel Capital, will renovate it, perhaps as an office geared for the technical industry.
Charleston and the American College of the Building Arts make good partners.
City Council was wise to see that synergy and facilitate a move that will help the ACBA thrive.

JOHNSTOWN - The Learning Lamp's Children's Book Festival of Johnstown has been named one of the best arts projects across the state by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.
At a recent news conference in Harrisburg, PCA executive director Phillip Horn recognized 13 organizations whose arts-related projects were selected from hundreds of Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts Projects statewide. The Children's Book Festival was among the top four finalists.
"I am delighted to recognize these organizations. This is the first year the Council has selected the most outstanding PPA Projects to represent the talent, achievements and contributions of the arts to the life of the Commonwealth," said Horn. "The selection of the 'Best of the Best' provides recognition for the important role of arts support provided by state government."
Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts is the Arts Council's regional re-granting program. It engages 13 regional partners to promote and review applications and award small grants to a wide variety of local and community arts programs and projects.
The Learning Lamp's Children's Book Festival has been a recipient of PPA funding through the Pennsylvania Rural Arts Alliance since 2010.
"We value the support of the PA Rural Arts Alliance and the opportunity the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts program has provided The Learning Lamp to promote reading and children's literature," said Leah Spangler, executive director of The Learning Lamp. "With each passing year, we have been able to attract a higher caliber of authors and illustrators to Johnstown to help bring books alive for children and enable them to experience the arts in a very interactive and personal way."
The 2014 festival, which was held in April with guest authors that included Gail Carson Levine, Debbie Dadey and author/illustrator James Warhola. Planning is underway for next year's event.
PCA is a state agency under the Office of the Governor, whose mission it is to foster the excellence, diversity and vitality of the arts in Pennsylvania, and to broaden the availability and appreciation of those arts throughout the state.
The council formed the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts in 1997, to expand the availability of state arts dollars and encourage and support local decision-making.

Sound: This is Witchfinder General's second album, after Death Penalty, and is their last album with vocalist Zeeb Parkes. Friends of Hell continues in the same vain as their other work (i.e. doomy NWOBHM heavily influenced by Black Sabbath) although this album has much better sound quality then their other releases. This album has a different sound then Death Penalty, namely a more theatrical feel in both the playing and singing, and some songs take a little more to get into then on their other albums
One of the obvious improvements, however, is the album cover. While Death Penalty featured one scantily clad lady, Friends of Hell has five! // 8
Lyrics: One of the first things you'll notice if you're familiar with the bands earlier work, is how much Zeeb's voice has changed, from his youthful squeaky voice to a more theatrical, fuller sound. Some people may not like it as much, but I think it is definetly more suitable for these songs.
The lyrics of the songs deal with a wide range of subjects, including time travel (Last Chance) depression (Requiem for Youth) and possible necrophilia (Love on Smack) // 7
Overall Impression: The band takes its Sabbath influenced sound from the earlier records, and moves it into an area all its own on Friends of Hell. My favourite songs on the album are Love on Smack, Requiem for Youth, and Music, and even though all the songs on this album may not be as instantly likable as on Death Penalty ('I Lost You'. 'Friends of Hell'), there is still lots to love.
An overall great album, and a shame that they couldnt make a third with Zeeb before splitting. // 8

Robert Satloff of the Washington Institute examines the threats facing Israel in 2013.
First, Israel finds itself as the place where the Middle East's two mega-trends -- the threat of Iran's hegemonic ambitions and the spread of radical Sunni extremism -- find common cause. While these two trends battle against each other in Syria, Bahrain and elsewhere, the recent Gaza conflict highlighted a neat, if sometimes competitive, division of labor -- with Iran providing rockets to Hamas and Sunni states such as Qatar, Egypt and Turkey providing Hamas with vital political support. It is not a cause for celebration that jihad against Israel has succeeded in unifying the region's radical Shiites and radical Sunnis.

(Leviticus 19:16) The question facing society is how to regulate weapons so as to balance these rules most effectively and to maximize the single value that underlies them: keeping people safe. Jewish sources have addressed similar issues of balance in two different contexts: "cities of refuge" and fierce dogs.

Consumer Reports surveyed more than a thousand drivers of all ages and found among the respondents under the age of 30, only 36 percent were very concerned about the problem of distracted driving, and only 30 percent felt it was very dangerous to use a handheld phone while behind the wheel.
According to the Department of Transportation, nearly 5,500 people were killed and almost a half million were injured in accidents related to distracted driving in 2009. Eighteen percent of those fatal accidents involved the use of a cell phone.

Every network will have its issues eventually. It is what it is.
5. Midnight (Posts: 14; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
every network will have outages but att suffered outages yesterday in 7 (SEVEN) states! thats insane. that would never happen to verizon. they said the reason was because of a power failure at a plant or something, VZW has battery backup and generaters at nearly every cell site. so this wouldnt of happened even close to as widespread on the network
7. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
i agree. also during hurricanes verizons network is by far the best!
6. Midnight (Posts: 14; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
goodjob btw iPhonearena. way to mention your fav device in an article about service outages.

Hahaha, i can see the headlines, "AT&T goes under, 70 million people loose iPhone coverage. That one guy who didn't get an iPhone also can't make calls"
8. shawnluke05 (Posts: 3; Member since: 29 Dec 2008)
I don't have at&t, I have Verizon and I am tired of all these Verizon Fanboys claiming that nothing like this would ever happen to Verizon. All weekend long here in Ohio my service with Verizon was sketchy at best. I wasn't receiving phone calls and it was taking upwards of 6 hours for people to receive my text messages. I was also being told that when people called me they were getting "your call cannot be completed as dialed messages"....I of course called Verizon and got their famous response...."we don't show any problems...*228 your phone and that will fix everything!"

Really? I believe you are an ATT fanboy. I live and work in central ohio. Are you familiar with Columbus. If so why dont you stop by my store on Sawmill Rd in Dublin and we will see whats going on with your phone. There was an issue Friday I believe or maybe Saturday. Days are kinda blurring together and I cant wait till the holidays are over. At any point the closest tower to the Dublin, Worthington and Delaware area was out of commission for roughly 6 hrs. One of the cable companies cut a fiber optic cable to the tower and it was out of commission instantly. Service was very weak due to the fact the only towers you could pull in were very distant. For whatever reason when i first called in to customer care I got the call center in California and they had no idea what was going on and as i was on the phone i got an email about it. Other than that I have been all the way up to Tiffin( by sandusky) and all the down to Amanda which is kinda halfway between columbus and athens within the last week and almost never have a weak signal. It very well can be the devise
38. shawnluke05 (Posts: 3; Member since: 29 Dec 2008)
First off I am not an at&t fanboy....and I live in Columbus so I am very familiar with it! Secondly, I have already been to the store at Polaris and they claim there is nothing they can do...yet when people are still calling me they are still getting the "your call cannot be completed as dialed" message! Just because you seem to have awesome coverage on your phone doesn't mean all of you customers do!
39. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
dude when people call you and you have no service it would go to voicemail.. not as you say "your call did not go thru". when i went swimming with my phone while it was in my pocket (on mistake) if someone called it would go to voicemail. at least that what happens with me :-) i'm guessing it has to do with their phones or idk what.
10. The Godfather (unregistered)
sorry shawn but we have had perfect coverage in the state of Ohio, no network issues , no data issues. You might want to get your phone checked out, because it wasnt the network .
14. Mayday3420 (Posts: 61; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
sorry godfather, shawn is right we did have network issues in ohio last week. Don't speak unless you know what you're speaking about. "it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." OH SNAP
22. SellPhones82 (Posts: 569; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
Godfather thinks he is a VZW exec some times so it does not surprise me that he was wrong...
24. The Godfather (unregistered)
And how do you guys seem to think you know anything? Since I reside and work out of this area, I would think my info to be reliable. And since our network status was 99.98% in the entire state of Ohio for the entire month, even during the inclimate weather, I would say Mayday is just trying to egg something on. What type of NITa issues did we have? What exactly was the loss and what area was it reported in? Silence is golden....thats a better quote.
25. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
i like that quote better too haha lol!
31. bbold2 (Posts: 17; Member since: 30 Dec 2008)
o snap the guy quoted a proverb you go man.. haha
32. bbold2 (Posts: 17; Member since: 30 Dec 2008)
o man he quoted a proverb you go man haha
36. Mayday3420 (Posts: 61; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
ok godfather, you're wrong and here this is a alert for all verizon reps to see. As of Start Date/Time: 12/22/2008 04:36 ET: Lewis Center BSC21 has 19 sites completey down which include secondary and EVDO DCGs. Columbus has 51 sites completely dwn. Switch technicians and Time Warner are investigating. Affecting MIDWEST-WPA/CPA/OH/WV-Columbus hmmm, kind of looks like to me there were many problems in columbus and round it. or am I just not reading that right at all? I think we have made it clear now that you have no idea what you're talking about and i'm not trying to egg up anything, just give RIGHT information.
12. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
this, and sprints breach of contract info? great day to be a vzw employee :) woot! and while it "can " happen on any network, we have back up generators, towers, tower trucks, and so forth.. which is why we are always the last one standing.
13. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
tower trucks: aka colts and cows. cell on wheels :-)
15. The Doc (Posts: 122; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
All I have to say is, KUDOS to Phonearena for keeping us up to date with ALL news! Hopefully At&t gets things back on track with the service issues. Even Verizon Wireless customers can't go a day without their phones!
18. Big Red (Posts: 101; Member since: 12 Dec 2008)
Never have to.
17. PhoneUser (Posts: 78; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
Thanks Doc your one of the few people that know what this site is for..... INFORMATION!!! But we still have people arguing over who's carrier is better...honestly dont they have better things to do than praise their carrier 24/7??? Anyways i do hope AT&T get things back up. VZW Fanman... also i hate to say it but Nextel had the better coverage during hurricanes especially during Katrina. That's why Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and Tmobile have spend Millions improving their network in the gulf.
21. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
that was over three years ago dude, old news :-) and exactly verizon has spent millions improving their network for that reason. ps i dont think the v in verizon is capitalized because the v in their logo isnt?
23. PhoneUser (Posts: 78; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
I know that i was just saying, there hasn't been a real hurricane lately to test out the upgrades everyone made so there's no real evidence that they are the best. Also LMAO wow your i cant believe your correcting me over the "V" in Verizon..... does it really bother you like that??? I did it for all the carriers...lol...Please do me a favor and relax it's not that serious. Remember this is a place for everyone to put out vital information bout the wireless industry, not to argue with someone bout "V" being the best. You have a bless day...
26. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
haha lol.. all i said was one sentance dude, i didnt think that is considered an argue lol.. and hurricane gustav was a big deal :-)
29. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
vzw worked longer than the other carriers through the storms, especially nextel. thats why the state of FL is droppin all their nextell phones and going VZW. we worked through katrina, charlie, and the rest, better than the rest.
30. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)

I live in the Dallas area, and I have pristine calling quality. :) I had problems with 3G and Edge, but that was because they accidentally took out my data plan when I put in international calling... Small mistake.
27. SilverPearl (Posts: 31; Member since: 08 Jul 2008)
Same day that Walmart makes the phone available, eh? Then I'd blame Walmart for the problems. I mean think about it... every time a Walmart gets put up in a town, real estate values in the immediate area drop instantly. I'd say it's probably the same thing here. Walmart starts selling iPhones, and the network drops in reliability.
28. haley72 (Posts: 7; Member since: 16 Dec 2008)
Service here in albuquerque is superb!!! I havent dropped a call or even been with out 3G since I moved here. It sucks that att lost that much network at once but I have confidence that they will get it together very soon and we wont see any more big problems like that.
33. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
well i live in san diego and i had a cust port 3 lines from att cause their phones wern't working and they were just sick of them all together. its funny cause when i used to work for cingular back when they bought gayt&t this would happen all the time, at least once every month or two. the network would shut down completly for like 2 or 3 hours and people would freak!!!! T-mobile doesn't even have these issues!!!! wtf i'm just happy to be on the Red side and not even have to deal with it. i'll just keep taking their customers;)

AT&T service is fine in all of northern & central (New) Jersey. Always has no issues.
35. LessthanZach (Posts: 106; Member since: 29 Apr 2008)
I am kind of curious who the hell is putting a negative on everyone's comments. Probably Godfather... I am waiting for mine now.

hahah yea your telling me! look at all the negatives under my name haha lol!

We live right in the middle of Houston ( north central near Loop 610 ) and it is IMPOSSIBLE to EVER get a signal strength greater than 1 or 2 of the shortest little bars. Calls drop CONSTANTLY and we have Apple iPhones ( makes reception even worse ). However, we can drive a mile or so in practically ANY direction and receive a 'fair' signal strength indicator. We are in an old part of town with very expensive homes ( Heights / Garden Oaks ) and can not imagine why AT&T can't deliver a fair product for the very expensive service they are charging. I am thinking of dropping AT&T entirely and going with Sprint. We had them before we bought iPhones and we NEVER experienced this signal strength problem. So, beware of buying AT&T until you know what service you will receive for their HIGH charges . . .

Just spoke with AT&T customer in CA about 10 min. ago, and she stated she heard an AT&T spokesman on TV last night (9/24/11) that AT&T has been affected by the satellite than fell to earth. According to her, the person stated that many people are out of service, while others will have strange things happening with their service. He also stated they have "no clue - what, or where" the main problem is, but are working deligently, 24 hours, to ascertain what, where, and repairing the problem as quickly as possible!

Some, like Kim Kardashian, have announced their fandom in less verbal ways: Recently, the reality star toted around a Twilight water bottle emblazoned with Taylor Lautner's face. Count her on Team Jacob!
While en route to her L.A. gym, meanwhile, Ashley Tisdale obviously declared herself on Team Edward, given her water bottle with its visage of Robert Pattinson.
Yet whether they're on Team Edward or Team Jacob – or just Team Twilight – here's what celebrated and self-declared Twi-Hards have said about the franchise:
At last year's MTV Movie Awards, Efron and girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens were competing against Pattinson and Stewart for best kiss, but the former High School Musical heartthrob wasn't dismayed about the competition, calling Twilight a "great film" and the Edward/Bella liplock, "a great kiss."
Kelly Clarkson took to her blog earlier this year to rave about the Twilight soundtrack – and the books. "By the way, I'm now on 'eclipse' of the twilight series and so is my mom, my sister and all of my friends," she wrote in a Jan. 9 post. "You could say we're a bit addicted and all searching for our very own personal 'edward' …..and yes, in the most pathetic way possible ha!"
Pete Wentz called in to the final episode of MTV's TRL last November and admitted a craving for the first Twilight flick. "I went to Chinatown, picked up a bootleg version of Twilight," he said, "and watched it like, 72, times."
Joe Jonas outed himself as Team Edward to MTV News. The appeal? "For a lot of guys, they want superpowers," he said. "He's a vampire, but he's pretty strong and stuff."
Hilary Duff said in a radio interview that her hockey player beau Mike Comrie may have some vampire competition. "I was like, 'Edward Cullen … I mean, find me a vampire, you might be done,' " she said, adding, "He's handsome!"
Last December, Rosario Dawson told PEOPLE that reading Twilight has become too addictive. "I just read the first book, it's ridiculous, it's like crack cocaine," she said. "I read it for 10 hours straight until I finished it."
At Comic-Con in July, Jennifer Love Hewitt revealed her personal allegiances. "Who's not Team Edward?" she told MTV News. "There is not a girl in the world who's not Team Edward! Have you met girls who are not Team Edward? Well, they are not girls! They're aliens from another planet who should not be allowed to exist."
And on his KIIS-FM radio show, Ryan Seacrest frequently performs dramatic readings from the books, including a famous breakup scene in New Moon between Edward and Bella.

This is our first E6OM and we couldn't be happier! I have played dozens of the traditional series OMs with Adirondack tops and it is a joy to hear this design outfitted with a Sitka top. The warmth and balance of the Sitka is paired wonderfully with the expressive character of the Mahogany back and sides. This combination provides this guitar with tone that is familiar and inviting, but never dull. The guitar responds very well to changes in dynamics but still manages to take quite a lot of volume before breaking up.åÊ
Perfect for fingerstyle, strumming, or flatpicking, the OM body shape is one of the most versatile acoustic designs you can find. Contact Sound Pure today for more information!
The Eastman Orchestra Model is most popular size among fingerstyle guitarists. Large enough to be heard playing in a group. They are tight and focused, with added volume

Daffodil bouquets and stuffed animals can be purchased as home or office-brightening gifts for oneself, family, friends, co-workers or anybody else whose day needs a little cheer.
They can also be bought as caring "Gifts of Hope," then delivered anonymously to cancer patients in hospitals, doctor's offices, and treatment centers. In 2009, more than 20,000 Gifts of Hope were delivered throughout California.
Volunteers are still needed as coordinators who will take daffodil pre-orders from their work site, school, place of worship or organization. Volunteers are also needed for packing and delivering fresh-cut daffodils during February and March.
The money raised from Daffodil Days and other ACS fundraisers will help people stay well by preventing cancer or detecting it early, help people get well by being there for them during and after a cancer diagnosis, be invested in groundbreaking research and fight cancer by rallying lawmakers to pass laws to defeat the disease.
The Daffodil Days order submission deadline is March 1. Distribution day is March 23, and pick-up day is March 24 at Steve's Valencia Florist in Newhall. Orders $150 and more will be delivered by FedEx.
Steve's Valencia Florist is located at 23760 Lyons Ave., Newhall 91321.
About American Cancer Society and Daffodil Days
The American Cancer Society - also referred to as the "Official Sponsor of Birthdays" - is a nationwide, community-based voluntary health organization. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and with more than 3,400 offices, the ACS is dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives, and diminishing suffering from cancer, through research, education, advocacy and service.
For more than 35 years, the Daffodil Days program has been making tremendous strides in the fight against cancer and providing hope for those facing the disease. According to ACS data, its research has contributed to a 15 percent decrease in the overall cancer death rate between the early 1990s and 2005. That means approximately 650,000 cancer deaths were avoided. Overall, 11 million cancer survivors in America will celebrate their birthday this year.
"The Gift of Hope, which helps fund cancer research, education, local patient services and advocacy efforts, is a unique gift you give to a cancer survivor as well as to yourself," said Nancy Coulter, a longtime ACS Santa Clarita Valley Unit volunteer and ACS past president.
"The feeling of reaching out anonymously and letting a cancer survivor know they are not alone ... that there is someone in their community who wants them to get better, it is just so heart-warming and meaningful."
Coulter intimately understands the need for hope when cancer enters one's life.
Her daughter, Heather Warrick, has been living with metastatic breast cancer for more than 16 years. Despite the immense physical and emotional weight of her ongoing battle and treatments, Warrick faithfully works for the American Cancer Society SCV Unit as its Health Programs Manager - and supports the fight against cancer each day with the utmost optimism and courage.
Daffodil Days is a significant part of that mission, Warrick said.
"Daffodil Days brings hope and awareness to the community. It means another step towards finding a cure," Warrick commented, then asked, "What better way to bring a smile to a patient?"

Not just a general term for the male genitalia, but one that describes a penis with substantial length and girth.

Misspelling of the world "schlong," or penis. Probably derived from the German "schlange" for snake, which, pronounced in German, must have sounded like "schlong" to native English speakers.
Wow, that horse has got a pretty huge schlong. I don't know if those fifth graders on their field trip to the zoo should be seeing this.
