Sure, we bullied 54 nations into signing defense pacts, and we bullied Europe into sticking us with a huge bill for NATO. We bullied every other Nato country except for Poland and Britain into not paying the 2% of their GDP on defense that the treaty requires, so we could sociopathically pay for the gaps in their budgets, in addition to providing such a huge military force, that Germany, for instance, only needs to have available one light brigade of combat troops for NATO operations...
As a non-American in an allied country I can attest that America more than just a bully. Sometimes a bully, yes, but often a great help and friend.
uber alles...
Feeling excluded is one thing. Telling people what to do is another.
I disagree. I think coders should all be forced to learn to learn the intricacies of investment.
Because, naturally, there can only be ONE human thinking skill which rules them all, and which people who are gifted in other areas should be forced to struggle through.
Used to live in a backwoods Canadian coastal area. It wasn't unusual to head toward the marina to watch the 4th of July fireworks coming from the rich American yachts because they could afford to put on a better fireworks show than the local town did a few days earlier on Canada Day.
All things considered we have good neighbours. Elsewhere in the world, little nations that reside beside super powers are sleeping with one eye open. We're not worried about USA. If they want something from us they pull out a check book, not a cannon. It will be just another Saturday for us but hope you guys enjoy your Independence Day.
Not sure what this has to do with tech news. I guess gun powder was a significant invention. What better way to celebrate the greatness of America than with Chinese goods?
It also doesn't account for the previously established fact that any proper zombie outbreak originates in BRITAIN.
I love USA as much as the next guy but seriously, you need to stop copy-catting every British hit.
Open source means the source code is available in full. Whether the creators/inner contributors run the project like the wild old days of Wikipedia or whether they are autocratic is up to them. e.g. I can't just tell Linus to put my code in the Linux kernel.
But if I have the motivation I can take the source and put in my changes myself. Perhaps it will gain traction, perhaps not. But I have the option.
Also, there is the little matter of transparency which only open source provides.
So in these ways Firefox is the only one of the aforementioned which is truly open, even though, as you say, they do not allow you any say in the development of their OS.
Exactly. Typical Obama nanny state government thinks it's their business to protect us from ebola.
Annoying when a phone/tablet has more software available than a "laptop".
Unless the giant software ecosystem is insecure.
I have a theory that it's impossible to prove anything, but I can't prove it.

In Debt We Trust: How Much Public Debt? A dissenting view on US sovereign debt 0 commentsMay 18, 2010 8:13 AMThe best place to start is by crunching the numbers so we can get the big picture. Which I did: US debt is now between 8 trillion and 110 trillion. Useful indication is it not? There is over a 100 trillion difference, and here officially starts the headache and worst of all, one could argue that both numbers are in some ways correct including many other between these two extremes. Gross debt, net debt, national debt, federal debt, public debt, total government obligations, unfunded obligations, U.S. debt, you name it, are some of the terminology used to simply determine how much debt is owed by the government. No wonder the subject creates feverish debate and sensationalist titles in the likes of "the U.S. has one of the lowest debt-to-GDP ratios amongst developed economies" or "the US is a Ponzi scheme ready to default".So before going any further let's first try to find out how much debt there really is. I shall be focusing on the non-private debt, public debt, the one for which the sky appears to be the limit these days. In fact, public debt may be considered gross or held by the public. Gross debt includes intra-governmental debt whilst held by the public excludes it. Intra-governmental debt is federal debt held by other federal agencies. It is debt that the federal government in some way "owes to itself" and is held in more than 200 trust funds, most of it held by a very few, and in particular the Social Security Trust Fund. When a trust fund receives payroll taxes or other income that are not needed to pay benefits immediately, the Treasury credits the trust fund with nonmarketable treasury debt, "special issues", enabling it to use the excess funds for other government expenses and/or reduce the amount of traditional Treasury debt (the one named held by the public) it shall need to issue in the credit markets.
So the question we have to deal with is whether one should include the federal debt that is owed to other federal agencies (intra-governmental debt invested in "special issues" that do not compete for buyers in the credit markets and held in the Trust funds) or only consider the federal debt that is owed to the public (bonds, notes, bills).- The Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund 2'319 billion- Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund 750 billion- Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund 304 billion- Military Retirement Fund 296 billion- Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund 200 billion……Total Intra-governmental debt 4'490 billion
There are a good hundred others not really worth mentioning in a world where only trillions appear to make the headlines.There are many arguments both ways on whether one should or not consider intra-governmental debt. I believe the answer simply lies in the state of the government fiscal position. Let me explain. Intra-governmental liabilities are non tradable "special issues" guaranteed as to both principal and interest by the Federal government and issued irrespective of the government's financial position. This implies that when the government is running fiscal surpluses, publicly held debt will be paid back but the government will need to continue to issue intra-governmental debt because these trusts have no other choice than to be invested in them. If these surpluses persist, the intra-governmental debt will continue to grow giving a misleading indication that the government is more and more forced into debt. In this case I believe that considering intra-governmental holdings provides a misleading picture of the financial situation of the government as the increasing size of the intra-governmental debt fails to reflect the improving overall fiscal situation. In times of deficit, it's a very different story. Surplus social security taxes are used to pay other government programs, and therefore, in times of deficit, it is clear that the rise in intra-governmental debt is not the result of this forced practice of issuing special securities but the simple absence of sufficient receipts. By investing the trusts' balances in nonmarketable treasury debt, the government needs to borrow less from the public; the debt held by the public alone therefore fails to reflect the worsening overall fiscal position of the government. Intra-governmental debt should therefore be viewed in times of surplus as excess "savings" that allow Social Security taxes collected in the past to reduce the need for taxes in the future. In times of deficit they should be considered as a current unfunded liability.

Film is unlikely to counter the helmer's reputation as a fest-only director.
If Marc Recha is trying to prove that neither man nor beast can leave instinct completely behind, he's gone about it in a meaningless way sure to alienate even his fans in "Little Indi." There's something almost sadistic about the way he builds up his protag, a teen putting all his dreams on a prize songbird, only to smash them (and his animals) in a spectacularly gratuitous way. While Recha's much-vaunted feel for landscape is unerring, the storyline doesn't hold together, with results that are unlikely to counter the helmer's reputation as a fest-only director.
Seventeen-year-old Arnau (Marc Soto) lives with his older sister, Sole (Eulalia Ramon), in a nondescript working-class district on the outskirts of Barcelona. Their mother's in the slammer (solitary confinement at the start) and his brother, Sergi (Eduardo Noriega), is a layabout, but Arnau has an escape route from this dead-end life thanks to the songbirds he enters into competitions. Recha presumably wants to make a parallel between the caged mother and the caged birds, though little in either the screenplay or the visuals extends any meaningful comparison.
Though Arnau is no rocket scientist, he's a pleasant enough character, carefully tending to his avian friends and bringing home a wounded fox he nurses back to health. He looks up to his uncle Ramon (Sergi Lopez), who ushers him into the downmarket world of dog racing, where Arnau picks up a few extra bucks — nowhere near as much as he requires to hire a good lawyer to get Mom out of jail. Sole needs him to deliver rent money to their landlord in the city, but the naive kid ends up getting pickpocketed in a scene that's clear enough without Recha repeating it from a different angle.
From this disaster, everything else spins out of control as fate pummels Arnau until everything he cares for is gone. Sympathy remains fairly high until about the halfway mark, exactly when the screenplay needs to build on the characters rather than leave everyone, except possibly Sole, in one dimension. It's hard to know where Recha is going with Arnau (aside from positioning the character as yet another of his primeval innocents), or why he chooses to treat Arnau with such cruelty, unless the obvious point is merely that life is hard if you're on society's margins.
Newcomer Soto has charm, but it's apparent he can't compensate for what the helmer himself withholds, especially by the end. Recha seems incapable of concentrating, his curious camera seeking out everything from shoes to racetrack cleaners to nameless people scratching themselves, so any narrative force simply goes limp. His greatest skill is in making the landscape a vital part of his screen world, here lensed with her usual superb eye by regular collaborator Helene Louvart.

Everyone knows what they are: the lights that iluminate the logo on an aircrafts tail.
My question is, which aircraft have them? And sometimes when im spotting, ill see for example a CO 737-300, and a US 737-300 and the CO will have its logolight on and the US wont. Is it up to the pilots to choose whether or not to turn it on? and last but not least, are the logo lights on for the duration of the entire flight? Thanks in advance.

Tutorial: Emacs for Programmers
Those of you who tuned in last month will recall "Emacs: Friend or Foe?", a tutorial for people who can't stand anything but vi. "All right," you're asking yourselves, "What is this card-carrying vi fundamentalist doing writing yet another article on Emacs?" Sounds fishy, doesn't it?
The truth is, once you get the hang of it, Emacs can greatly simplify editing, especially editing program source code. I now routinely use Emacs for developing and debugging programs.
It dramatically reduces turnaround time during the dreaded edit-compile-curse-debug-edit cycle. Here's how to put Emacs to use in this manner.
The bulk of this tutorial assumes that you are familiar with Emacs, as well as with customizing your Emacs environment (as discussed in last month's tutorial, in Linux Journal volume 1, issue 5). As long as you know how to add code to your .emacs startup file (or, as per last month's discussion, ~/emacs/startup.el), you're set.
The functions and comments described here work with GNU Emacs 19.24.1. By the time you read this article, newer versions may be available, in which case your mileage may vary.
As you know, Emacs has several major modes associated with programming. For example, C Mode is used for editing C source, Perl Mode for Perl, and so on. First off, I'll discuss the features of C Mode, and then explain how to compile and debug C programs within Emacs.
The command M-x c-mode is used to enter C Mode. (Recall from last month: M-x is Meta-x where meta is usually the <esc> key.) However, Emacs is usually able to determine that C Mode should be used for a C source file, either by the filename extension .c, or if the magic string
appears on the first line of the file. See the Emacs documentation on major modes if you're interested in how this works.
Within C Mode, code is automatically indented according to the values of several variables. These variables include c-indent-level, c-continued- statement-offset, and so on. The Emacs Info pages describe these variables in gory detail; however, I find that the default values work quite well, for a number of indentation styles. Unless you have a particularly unique artistic flair when it comes to indenting your code, I suspect that you won't have to fiddle with Emacs' indentation variables.
A line is indented appropriately when you press TAB anywhere on the line. This does not cause a tab character to be inserted; it just indents the line according to the variable values mentioned above. If you want to actually insert a tab character, prefix it with C-q.
To see how this works, start up Emacs and edit a file called foo.c. Type a few lines of bogus C code, pressing RET after each. Then go back and press TAB on each line to see the results.
Pressing LFD instead of RET is equivalent to pressing RET followed by TAB—that is, you start a new line, and it is automatically indented for you. I find it particularly useful to bind RET to this function, which is newline-and-indent, so that I don't have to use LFD when writing code. In my Emacs configuration file, I include the line:
(define-key c-mode-map "\C-m' -newline-and-indent)
One feature that you may have noticed is that closing braces and parentheses automatically blink their opening counterparts. This can help you to check that parentheses are balanced in your code. If you don't like this feature, you can turn it off using
(setq blink-matching-paren nil)
in your .emacs file (or ~/emacs/startup.el, for those of you using the method described last month. Hereafter, we will refer only to .emacs, but keep in mind that all of these customizations can be used with both methods).
If you're running Emacs under X, the paren library will cause matching parentheses and braces to be highlighted whenever point is on an opening brace/parenthesis, or after a closing brace/parenthesis. Simply including
(load-library "paren")
in your .emacs file will enable this feature. Balanced parentheses are highlighted in the region face; you can change the color or font used with commands such as set-face-foreground, set-face-font, and so on.
For example,
(set-face-background -0region "pink")
will set the background color for this face to pink. The region face is also used to display the current region when transient-mark-mode is enabled. We'll talk a bit more about faces below.
You'll also notice that typing a closing brace (on a line by itself) will exdent the line containing the brace. When
typing code such as:
int foo() { /* Your code here */
After pressing RET, the next line will be indented relative to the comment above it (assuming, of course, that you have bound RET to newline-and-indent). Now, after typing the closing brace, you'll end up with:
int foo() { /* Your code here */ }
Braces are bound to the function electric-c-brace, which inserts the brace, and corrects indentation on the current line. The indentation of braces, and the text enclosed by them, is controlled by the Emacs variables c-brace-offset, c-imaginary-brace-offset, and so on.
In general, your code should follow the indentation style set forth by Emacs. Adding comments is one exception. Many programmers like to set comments out towards the right margin of the display, as in
int floof(struct shoop *s, int i) { s->fnum = i; /* You are not expected to understand this */ return 0; }
Now that TAB has lost its natural ability to add whitespace, how can we add such a comment? Emacs provides the M-; command, which begins a comment starting at the column specified by the variable comment-column, which is set to 24 by default. Of course, you can always add comments by typing
/* ... */ by hand.
You can use M-x comment-region to comment out all lines in the current region. (For Emacs neophytes, the region is defined by moving point to a particular location, using C-Space to set the "mark", and then moving point elsewhere. The region is the block of text between point and mark. There are various other ways to set the region; for example, under X, dragging mouse-1 over a portion of text will define the region.) Likewise, M-C-\ (that's meta-control-backslash) will indent the current region.
C Mode defines several new moving commands as well. M-C-a will move point to the beginning of the current function. Similarly, M-C-e will move point to the end of the current function. Note, however, that the "current function" is denoted by an opening or closing brace in the first column of text. If you use a C indentation style such as
int foo() { /* Your code here */ }
Emacs won't be able to find the beginning of the function, as the opening brace is at the end of the line. For these commands to work properly, you should indent your code as so:
int foo() { /* Your code here */ }
To select the region as the text of the current function, you can use M-C-h. This provides a convenient way to manipulate entire functions. For example, the quick key sequence M-C-h, C-w, M-C-e, C-y will move the current function below the following one. Impress your friends!
The keys M-a and M-e can be used to move to the beginning or end of the current C statement (block, semicolon-delimited expression, etc.).
One last important C Mode feature: macro expansion. If you run M-x c-macro-expand, Emacs will run the C preprocessor on the current region and display the results in another buffer. For example, given the following code:
static XtResource resource_list[] = { { RES_N_doputimage, RES_C_doputimage, XtRBoolean, sizeof(Boolean), XtOffset(app_data_ptr,do_putimage), XtRImmediate, (XtPointer) FALSE, }, };
Selecting this text as the region, and calling c-macro-expand gives us:
static XtResource resource_list[] = { { "doPutImage", "DoPutImage", ((char*)&XtStrings[1561]), sizeof(Boolean), ((Cardinal) (((char *) (&(((app_data_ptr)0)->do_putimage))) - ((char *) 0))), ((char*)&XtStrings[1695]), (XtPointer) 0, }, };
This can be useful if you're trying to debug complex macros, or need to know the definition of a given preprocessor symbol.
Many other modes exist for particular languages, such as Perl Mode, Emacs LISP Mode, Prolog Mode, and so on. Most of these modes share the basic features described above. The best way to learn about a new mode is to enter it (with a command such as M-x perl-mode) and use M-x describe-mode to get a rundown on its features.
Re: Tutorial: Emacs for Programmers
Several small flaws in the article. The local emacs variables need to be at the end of the source. Or at least for Xemacs they do, they didn't work when in the middle of my code.
/* Local Variables: */
/* mode: C */
/* compile-command: "cd ..; make -k" */
/* End: */
The above works for my projects where the source lives 1 directory below the Makefile.
The compile key bindings are missing some backslashes before the C
;; Save and Compile
;; Uses the compile-command variable which can be set in the source
(defun my-save-and-compile ()
(interactive "")
(save-buffer 0)
(compile compile-command)
(define-key c-mode-map "C-cC-c" 'my-save-and-compile)
The above uses the compile-command set by the source. If none has been set then make -k is the system default.

Beyond double-strand break repair: specific mechanisms of homologous recombination at stressed replication forks.

"Genomic instability is the main driving force of tumourigenesis, as highlighted by the cancer predisposition conferred by mutations in caretaker genes. DNA replication stress has recently received much attention, for its causative role in transformation and as a strategy for cancer therapy. Besides other mechanisms protecting replicating chromosomes from genotoxic stress, transient fork remodelling into four-way junctions (fork reversal) is emerging as a key transaction to assist template repair or to tolerate DNA damage and replication interference. Factors and mechanisms modulating this transaction are just beginning to emerge. The central recombinase RAD51 was recently shown to promote fork reversal, uncovering a fork-specific role for homologous recombination (HR) proteins, beyond their established role in the double-strand break repair. However, the molecular determinants controlling RAD51-mediated fork remodelling are yet unknown. I propose to gain mechanistic insight into the role of RAD51 and other HR proteins in replication stress, using an integrated, multidisciplinary approach, which combines my current biochemical expertise with specialized cell biology and single-molecule techniques available in the host lab. In particular, I will first set up a microscopy-based screen to identify factors that regulate RAD51 recruitment at replication forks upon stress. Then, I will use a combination of single-molecule and cell biology techniques to investigate how these novel RAD51 regulators mediate in vivo RAD51 role in fork protection and remodelling. Finally, I will establish an in vitro system to study biochemically the mechanisms by which RAD51 and the novel identified factors catalyse replication fork remodelling. I believe that this "holistic" approach will be instrumental not only to define the molecular basis of cancers with a HR-defective genetic background, but also to provide the groundwork to develop more effective chemotherapeutic strategies."

Sure, Kentucky is getting ready to host a Mississippi State team on Wednesday night that has lost 12 straight games, is the lowest-rated BCS-conference team in the RPI (242nd) and is coming off a 41-point loss to Vanderbilt. But Cats coach John Calipari reminded us all today that barely a week ago, his team was coming off a 30-point loss (that could've been worse) at Tennessee in the wake of star Nerlens Noel's season-ending injury. Kentucky was "in coffins," just a few short days ago, Calipari said, and could go back there quickly if the Cats lose the focus and toughness they showed in consecutive wins over Vandy and Missouri. As for the NCAA Tournament, we got more "bell curve" talk from Calipari, who said teams with "F" grades will get in and "your F just has to be better than his F." Here's the coach's complete pre-Mississippi State analysis:
ON WHAT JULIUS MAYS HAS MEANT TO THIS TEAM: "He's a wonderful young man. He made a statement to his teammates, what makes you and drives you? What is it for you? He came back and said, 'I'm my mother's only son and I refuse to fail.' These guys kind of (went) like, 'What?' What he's done here now because he's playing so well, but not only that because of what type of person he is, he has taken on that role of holding people accountable. He's seeing the faces I see and the excuses I hear, he's hearing the same stuff but it's coming from him now, holding guys responsible. It's been fun to see him try to develop over this and thank goodness he's on this team because we didn't…holding it together has been a job that he's done."
ON RE-INVENTING THIS TEAM ABOUT THREE TIMES THIS SEASON: "You've got to just keep trying stuff, you know? When this is all over – I tell them, 'You're sitting in seats that everyone in the country wants to sit in. Don't look back five years from now and have regrets that you didn't give everything, sacrifice and do all the work.' You're in a seat where everybody in the country wants to sit in and for me as a coach I don't want to look back on this season and say I didn't try everything, I didn't give everything I could give and try different things and outside the box and listen to different people and try that. So when it's all said and done I live with no regrets and right now that's what we've been doing. What's working right now might not work a week from now and we'll try something different."
ON HOW MUCH MISSISSIPPI STATE'S DISASTER SEASON IS A REMINDER THAT 19-8, 10-4 IN THE SEC ISN'T THAT BAD: "We know that. We know. We're good. The issue has been the last seven or eight years we've won 30 games. Well, that's never been done in the history of our sport, but we think it's the norm, like, you're supposed to win 30. And then everyone with us, all the fans and media, you're supposed to win 30. Well, people don't win 30. We just had a heck of a run. So, the other side of this is when you watch them – I just watched them play Alabama at Alabama six days ago. It was a four-point game with five minutes to go, at Alabama. I just watched their game with LSU. It was a two- or three-bucket game at the end of the half. LSU made some threes, turned them over and spread it out, but it ended up being a 12 point game. This team is capable.
"If we don't have the maturity to understand one week ago … Where were we? One week ago we were in coffins, people were trying to nail them shut. Now all the sudden, we're like 'OK, wow.' Well, you can go right back to where you were if you don't have maturity or toughness. You just don't have that mental toughness to come every day and to battle. We'll see. You don't have to say one word. They're going to watch how you play, and if you do what you're supposed to people and make their judgments."
ON IF HE'S SURPRISED BY HOW QUICKLY IT CLICKED FOR THIS TEAM AFTER NOEL WENT DOWN: "No. No. Two years ago, if you remember, we lost six. We were Missouri. We were Missouri. We lost all those close games, we couldn't get over the hump late. We won, I think, the last three or four, went to the tournament, played just OK, then played Florida and played a heck of a game. Then went to the NCAA Tournament and all the sudden the season changed. That was about the same time as now. So, no I'm not surprised. But, even then you say 'we started clicking,' we just kept going. We had the maturity to say let's take advantage of this now. Let's see if we have that maturity to take advantage of the position we're now versus the position we were in seven days ago, eight days ago, whatever that was."
ON IF THE PERFORMANCE AGAINST MISSOURI HELPS HIM SHOW PLAYERS WHAT THEY CAN DO: "You don't know what's happening before the game with this group. The great thing is now they're eliminating and they're being eliminated every cop out and excuse they can use. There are none left. It's just you got to go battle. You're talented enough, you're good enough, we have enough guys. What excuse or cop out can you use now? You just got to go play. We're telling them, 'Hey, shoot the ball; worry about missing later. Worry about what happens if you miss later.' We're doing all the stuff to get them the ball.
"What happens at the end of the day, when it comes down to it, you've gotta step in the ring and look at the other guy and say, 'Let's go.' Or you can walk in the ring: 'Oh, it's really slippery in here and wet. Can we start again? Can we go out and (come back)? My manager's yelling at me too much. I don't feel right.' When you're in the ring, you've gotta battle. The Missouri game was a great lesson that they can do this and they have it in them, which I kept saying. But so was the Vandy game. Vandy goes and wins the next game by 40. By 40. On the road."
ON WHERE THIS TEAM IN TERMS OF TRUSTING EACH OTHER: "Just beginning. The reason there was a lack of trust for each other was the mentality that 'If I'm not playing well, I can't play; I can't give anything. If I miss two shots, my head goes down, I jog back. If a guy scores on me, I'm so embarrassed that I'll jog back and act like it doesn't matter to me.' I'm not gonna help my team because I'm worried about my guy scoring on me. That is a mentality that young kids, you have to break them of that. You have to get them to understand that the other way is much more fun to play, and if everybody plays that way you're protected. Instead of playing for yourself, you play for the other guys, and they all do the same, and the game is easier.
"But it's hard. Guys, two more points is like, 'I gotta get those two …' It's just – but they've gotten better. We're on the cusp of doing what we want to do. We just keep practicing. Like yesterday I told them, 'I'm not backing up. I haven't backed up one bit. I don't care what we did in that game. What's the next game? Now are we going to establish how we play or are we going to be immature and revert back to where we were because that's how you want to play, because you think it's easier? We're just – every day is a lesson."
ON HOW NERLENS NOEL IS DOING AND WHETHER HIS SURGERY IS SCHEDULED: "His surgery is scheduled. I don't have the date exactly, but it is scheduled. It'll be done, he'll have a couple weeks of intensive stuff. (Rajon) Rondo's going through it. Rondo said it: 'The toughest and the most painful thing I've ever been through in my life.' You're tough enough to go through it. Those guys that do end up coming back, in most cases, stronger than they were. But there's no slacking off, there's no, 'Well, I'm not going to go hard today.' No. You got five months of work, and I've told him that. And I think he's up for it, but it's not something – just because a lot of these surgeries happen, the ones that don't work out are because the guy, the rehab didn't work. That means the guy didn't put in the time and the sacrifice and the sweat equity that you got to put in to make that work. I think he will, though."
ON IF HE TRIES TO GET RONDO AND DERRICK ROSE TO TALK TO NOEL: "No, I haven't. I haven't at this point. He hadn't had the surgery, hadn't started on the rehab yet. But I will at some point. But Derek Anderson talked (to him), knows what he went though. But (Noel's) in a good frame of mind. Mom was here this weekend. She was great. They know we've really dotted i's and crossed t's and made sure one way or another he was in good shape, and she appreciated it."
ON THE NCAA TOURNAMENT: "OK, let me say this. Bell curve, OK? People with F's are going to get in and pass the class 'cause it's a bell curve. Your F's just got to be better than his F. You have 15 teams that would not be in last year's tournament. You guys can go check and look, but simple eye test: There'd be 15 teams that wouldn't have been in. So none of that matters. 'Well, you got to win all your games.' Here's a great one: 'They have to beat Missouri to get in.' OK, you beat Missouri. Then what do they say, 'Well, they still have to prove themselves.' What, are you going to get upset and listen to all that? I don't.
"All I know is if our team gets better and does what they're supposed to, we have the talent to not only play in that tournament, to advance. But we got to prove ourselves every night out. Even more than any team in the country, we have to prove ourselves every time out. And so no one has gone through what we went through, losing an entire team, playing all freshmen, having your point guard out, having your big guy out two weeks, losing the best player, the heart of your team and trying to keep going. No one. And we're still standing. So I'm happy. Now it's where do we go from here?"

Elderly woman swindled out of $3,500 for unfinished roof repairs
by: Richard Elliot Updated:
ATLANTA, Ga. - An elderly southwest Atlanta woman will have to spend Christmas away from her home of 30 years after the man she hired to put a new roof on her house never finished the job.
"He kept giving me the runaround," said Wagner, a retired teacher. "The next thing I knew, rain started coming in my house."
Her bathroom ceiling completely
Wagner said she was too embarrassed to tell her children until last week. They rushed to put a tarp over the roof, but by then, the damage had been done.
"It makes me very angry," said Wagner's daughter Christi Giddens. "She trusted him and this is what she got. Shame on him. How could he do this in this time of year?"
Giddens and Wagner said they've spoken to the roofer but he keeps giving them excuses as to why he can't finish the job. He did return to try to patch up some of the water damage to the ceiling, but he only screwed in sheets of drywall.
Channel 2 Action News
Meanwhile, Wagner cannot spend Christmas inside her own house. She'll spend it with her daughter as they try to figure out how to repair all the damage.
"All we can do is try to let people know that there are people like him out there and to beware, because they could take your money and run," said Giddens.

1999 Chevrolet Prizm Sedan 4dr Sedan
Basically being a Corolla, I would have expected more reliability. Bought it for my daughter's first car. Put nearly as much oil in it as gas and the brake switch needs replaced monthly as it locks the gear into park. Love getting those calls from her to come rescue her from the roadside. Cigarette lighter pops the stereo fuse. Need a crane to get out of the car as it comes as a low rider straight from the factory. Okay, enough whining already.... Oh, and don't take a drink along with you if you plan on using the stereo as it will block the controls. Okay, now I'm done whining. LOL
1999 Chevrolet Prizm Sedan LSi 4dr Sedan
I bought this car 1 yr ago with 185000 miles on it,Today it has 205000 and still runs like a top. The transmission shifts very smooth and engine is very strong. I get great gas mileage about 32-35 mpg. I am very happy with this car and would buy another one in the future if i could. The only issue these prism/corollas are known for at high miles is they burn oil. i have to add a quart like every 400 miles, but thats ok because the car is very very reliable and cheap to own otherwise.
So I just purchased this car used with just a little over 96,000 miles. Gotta say great choice. We've been having a hellish winter here -20's not uncommon followed by 6-12 inches of snow when it warms up. This car has never even hesitated. Mine is the 5 speed and I love the gas mileage. Awesome heat!!! A/C works too. Mine had the usual door handle break off, but the previous owner fixed it. I can't believe I actually enjoy driving this car. I wish the new Corolla wasn't cvt then I'd buy one next year.
5 speed, great heat, good a/c. Peppy fun to drive and zip around town.
Better seats and a good arm rest. Could also use a tachometer.
I bought this car new, ordered it in fact, down to every feature. It was my very first new car.Fast forward 12 years and my baby has 120,000 miles on her and has never let me down.Ever.I replaced the tires a few times, the compressor on the air conditioner and a few minor things, but this car has never left me stranded at the roadside.I still get 35-40mpg. I will drive this car till the wheels fall off.I expect to put on another 100,000 easily.
Definitely my favorite feature of this car is the mileage.
It is awesome.
I also like the position of the cupholders, and that they disappear when not in use.
My hubby has a Hyundai Elantra and the cupholders are in such a place that you have to take your eyes off the road to grab your cup.
Not in my Prizm!
The back seat is roomy enough for anyone I've ever had in the car.
My only gripe about this car is that at the 11 year mark the weatherstripping around the windows started to crack off.
It has made no difference not being there, tho.
Also, the driver side visor will not stay up.
I currently use a binder clip to keep it up, but have a replacement on order from eBay, which cost $20.
I bought this car from a family member, with 14,000 mi. on it. I've followed the maintenance manual and have had NO problems! I've had to replace the tires, oil, spark plugs, serpentine belt and battery; the normal maintenance stuff. I had to have the A/C charged a few times - but that only $20. It now has 115,000 miles and has NEVER broken down. It's been a fabulous car! I was informed that it is really a TOYOTA COROLLA with a Chevy name plate on it. Chevrolet and Toyota entered into a Joint Venture and produced this wonderful, dependable car - I wouldn't have purchased it otherwise. And it's great on gas.

Thanks to a pair of marquee wins over West Virginia and Oklahoma, Kansas jumps to No. 1 in Bleacher Report's latest Top 25 for college basketball.
Somebody change the record, but it was another insane week of college hoops fraught with upsets. In total, 18 teams from last week's Top 25 suffered a combined 23 losses—16 of which were to teams outside our Top 25.
Spinning that a different way, there were only seven ranked teams that didn't suffer at least one loss last week: Kansas, Villanova, North Carolina, Miami, Arizona, Kentucky and Dayton—each of which climbed multiple spots in this week's poll.
Perhaps the biggest winner, though, was Duke. The Blue Devils beat a pair of ranked teams this week to come flying back into the poll at No. 14. They almost certainly won't be that high in Monday's Associated Press Top 25, but get ready for them to start another potentially years-long streak in that poll.
Teams Dropped from Week 14 Rankings: Texas A&M (16), USC (17), Wichita State (20), South Carolina (24), Valparaiso (25)
Others Considered: California, Saint Joseph's, Monmouth, Utah, LSU
Our experts participate in weekly voting for B/R's Top 25. Once a vote is cast for a specific team, it's assigned a value—25 points for the No. 1 team in the rankings, 24 points for the second spot and so on. The point totals are then added up to create the Top 25.

Incubus + Deftones Announce Co-Headlining 2015 Summer U.S. Tour
Cool tour alert: Incubus and Deftones are teaming up for a 2015 co-headlining summer U.S. trek.
Cool tour alert: Incubus and Deftones are teaming up for a 2015 co-headlining summer U.S. trek.
Incubus are giving fans a listen to their "Trust Fall" title track via a trippy new lyric video.
Incubus have just unveiled the lyric video for their new single 'Absolution Calling.'
After taking some time for various other projects, the members of Incubus are back working on a new studio album.
Incubus guitarist Mike Einziger has moved to clear up some confusion started with one of his recent online tweets. The musician reveals in a pair of new comments that he is not, in fact, making a guest appearance on the next Pearl Jam record.
Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd recently revealed he was finishing up work on his second solo album, but he's not the only member of the band staying busy during the group's hiatus. Guitarist Mike Einziger has landed a pair of high profile guest turns -- working with Pearl Jam on their new album and with Hans Zimmer on the score for 'The Lone Ranger' film.
Last week, Incubus fans took pause when it was reported that frontman Brandon Boyd had mentioned a possible break for the band in the future, but now the band's manager has stepped forward to clarify the statement.
Incubus singer Brandon Boyd has revealed that the band has no immediate plan for the future as they close out the promotion cycle for 2011′s 'If Not Now, When?' with the Honda Civic tour featuring co-headliner Linkin Park. The future is uncertain in terms of the band's label situation, as it completed its contract with longtime label Epic. Therefore, Boyd spoke about these aspects and about his personal aspirations.
This guy was born in Romania with no forearms and a deformed right leg. His doctors believed he would only live a few days, therefore he was never issued a birth certificate. He was put in an institution where they put other unwanted and disabled babies. At seven months old, a British doctor found him and brought him to England as part of good-will project. His name is Cornel and he rocks.
Incubus vocalist Brandon Boyd recently held a lengthy speaking engagement at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood, Calif., where he discussed the band's origins, influences, and the secret of their longevity.
The 6th annual Rock on the Range festival boasts a massive 44 band lineup that includes Incubus, Rob Zombie, Shinedown, Marilyn Manson, Five Finger Death Punch, Slash, Megadeth, Chevelle, Volbeat and more -- get all the details here.

Film director Hal Hartley ("Henry Fool," "Trust") turned his attention to the stage in 1998, writing this theater piece, inspired by the 1993 Waco confrontation between the Branch Davidians and the U.S. government, for the Salzburg Festival. "Soon" is more intriguing than it is entertaining or moving, with a thoughtfulness that never takes dramatic form.
Film director Hal Hartley ("Henry Fool," "Trust") turned his attention to the stage in 1998, writing this theater piece, inspired by the 1993 Waco confrontation between the Branch Davidians and the U.S. government, for the Salzburg Festival. Receiving its American premiere as part of the Eclectic Orange Festival in Orange County, "Soon" is more intriguing than it is entertaining or moving, with a potent, involving thoughtfulness that never quite takes dramatic form.
The piece is a hybrid of movement and theater, heavily scored to synthesizer strains by Hartley in collaboration with Jim Coleman; "Soon" emerged, in fact, following an opera commission. The three female and four male performers fill out an empty, square playing space — there's only a Bible and a stool — with microphones (attached to four-foot metal poles) handed from person to person. The movement punctuates the religious debates over the meaning of biblical passages.
The piece's most insightful moments stem from taking an uncompromisingly subjective view of the proceedings. This is the Waco story told from the followers' point of view, an ambitious effort to understand the Christian fundamentalist mind and how it came into conflict with the law. The piece's most alarming, funniest and revealing turn comes when the leader, here referred to as the Prophet, decides that to fulfill the biblical commandments, he needs to sleep with the under-age girls in the community. Hartley has prepared the way so that this kind of logic makes a perverse sense.
"Soon" is also uncompromising in the abstraction of its presentation. The figures here are never quite full-fledged characters but spokespeople for a viewpoint. While this approach is perhaps Hartley's way of acknowledging that he can only enter into this world so far, it does limit the force of the piece, keeping it more a contemplation on events than a confrontation. The choreography becomes repetitive rather than expressive, and even the music takes on a numbing effect. There's strong writing here, and it would certainly be nice to see Hartley explore the theatrical medium further. But in this effort, content and form never quite merge.

Nikon Coolpix P7100 flips out for LCD
Nikon's Coolpix P7000 had a bash at Canon's G-Series crown, and now it seems the Japanese giant is back for a second bite of the cherry with the official launch of the Nikon Coolpix P7100.
At first glance the P7100 looks just like its older brother, but take a closer look and you will notice a few differences. Most notably, there's a tilting 3-inch LCD screen on the back and a new command dial up front.
That LCD screen is still the same spec as last year's model, though bar the flipping action, at 921k dots, and the rest of the spec sheet reads much the same as well.
So, once again, we're looking at a 10.1-megapixel CCD sensor with 720p video shooting. However, Nikon is promising "improved image quality, reduced time lag, faster autofocus speeds, and quicker start up times".
These promises will hopefully be met by the inclusion of the new Expeed C2 processing system, which is the evolution of the P7000's engine and is designed to "expand the possibilities of photography even further, with enhanced movie recording, high-sensitivity performance and maximum image quality".
There's a wide-angle 7.1x zoom Nikkor lens on board with 28mm to 200mm range, 35mm format equivalent, RAW file format support and the same manual controls that we liked from the P7000.
The P7100 comes boxed with Nikon's new ViewNX 2 software as well and you'll get 2GB of cloud storage for your photos and videos (upgradable at a price) with Nikon my Picturetown.
Out on 22 September, the Nikon Coolpix P7100 will set you back £499.99.

The Story of Mankind was written and illustrated by Dutch-American journalist, professor, and author Hendrik Willem van Loon and published in 1921. In 1922, it was the first book to be awarded the Newbery Medal for an outstanding contribution to children's literature.
Written for his children (Hansje and Willem), The Story of Mankind tells in brief chapters the history of western civilization beginning with primitive man, covering the development of writing, art, and architecture, the rise of major religions, and the formation of the modern nation-state. Van Loon explains in the book how he selected what and what not to include by subjecting all materials to the question: Did the person or event in question perform an act without which the entire history of civilization would have been different?
After the book's first edition, Van Loon published another edition later in the 1920s which included an extra essay, called "After Seven Years", about the effects of World War I. Since Van Loon's death in 1944, The Story of Mankind has been added to extensively by his son, Gerrit van Loon. The most recent version by John M. Merriman (1999) covers events up to the late 1990s (ISBN 9780871401755).
In 1957 a film was made based on the book, titled The Story of Mankind, starring Ronald Colman and an all-star cast, featuring, among others, the Marx Brothers.

My suggestion was to short-sighted - one could split the version list for new bugs and for querying bugs, but that now sounds far worse than moving versions over to another closed product. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net

When I got up in my hotel room this morning, I flipped on the news while I got ready and one of the news anchors said, "Well, we made it to Friday. Again."
Wow, dude! Way to grab life by the horns and be optimistic about what's out there for you.
I do have to say, though, my super early wake-up call had me grouchy, but then I arrived at Penn Station to take the train from New York City to Baltimore and it is niiiiiiiice.
Why can't the rest of the country have express trains?
No getting to the airport an hour in advance. No waiting in line to go through security. No getting undressed and unpacking your bags to go through security. No walking 36 miles to your gate (O'Hare is big!). No cattle call to get on. No shutting everything down for takeoff and landing. And WiFi the entire way.
Just show up 10 minutes before, grab a latte, get on the train, and start working (or reading or watching movies).
It seems like a no-brainer to me.
Who do I need to talk to about getting this done?
While I figure that out, you can check out this week's Gin and Topics.
5. Teeny Tiny Pig Overcomes His Fear of Stairs. This might be the cutest thing I have ever seen. Seriously. Ever. I can always count on Deb Dobson to feed my obsession with cute animals. (I couldn't get YouTube to work on the train – one minus for them – so click on the link above to see the video.)
4. Say Frog, Baby. This? This is hilarious. A little girl is being prompted to say "frog," but it's not what keeps coming out of her mouth. In the words of Hajra Khatoon, "Kids say the darndest things!"
3. Some Guy Turned His Dead Cat into a Helicopter. In the truth is stranger than fiction category, Rebecca Amy Todd wanted to be sure everyone saw this. A man made a helicopter of his cat's corpse. Trust me when I say you want to watch the video at the end of the post.
2. Man Stranded Makes Motorcycle. In news from the world of MacGyver, a man stranded in the desert has two choices: Die waiting for help or make a motorcycle from his broken car. I'm sure you'd choose the second option, too. But could you make this thing run? He did. You'll be impressed. Thanks to Christina Pappas for the find!
1. Dead Toddler Reanimates at Wake. When Rachel Kay posted this on her Facebook page, she said, "Well that's it for today. There won't be anything else on the Internet that will trump this story." And she's right. I'm out.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I kind of hate that guy for doing that to his cat. *shudder*
@annedreshfield There is something wrong with him. Who does that??
Some great ones today. Now I wish I had more small children to record them saying funny things. My kids were young at the wrong time!
@KenMueller Say FROG! HAHAHAH!
@ginidietrich I'm so laughing at frog!!!! Love it…and yep, you can always count on me for cute animals.
@ginidietrich @KenMueller LOL, that was so funny!!! I should send Ken the link I sent you awhile back, Gini. Of my youngest when she kept saying "Douche, Dad's a Douche"! We just watched it the other day for the first time in awhile!!
@sydcon_mktg HAHAHAHAH!!!
Little kids dropping the F-bomb never gets old. Ever.
@jasonkonopinski I love how she keeps looking at everyone laughing like, "What??"
@ginidietrich I'm just waiting for the day when my nephew lets fly. His mother will be mortified, and I'll be laughing for days.
@ginidietrich with my daughter, it was fork, not frog. Also sit.
On an unrelated note, if you are headed to Baltimore, check out Bo Brooks off Boston Street for steamed crabs. You will not be disappointed.
@John_Trader1 I love that place.
@John_Trader1 Well, I'm a vegetarian. And I was here seven hours. 🙁
@ginidietrich I didn't know that you were a vegetarian (but somehow feel I should have).
Me thinks the people in the last story may have gotten into some of the olives on the tray you are displaying and that little girl with the frog, were you 'baby whispering' again?
@annelizhannan Wasn't that crazy? He asked for a glass of water and that was it. Methinks that's more of the mushroom than the olive type.
@ginidietrich @annelizhannan and don't they embalm bodies down there?
@KenMueller @annelizhannan You know, that's a great question!
The cat guy turned his ex wife into a gocart or so I heard.
@TheJackB So everyone in the neighborhood could ride her…?
@KenMueller @TheJackB BWAHAHAHAHAH!
@ginidietrich @KenMueller @TheJackB HA. Nice one, Ken.
@annedreshfield @ginidietrich @TheJackB Just showed the cat video to my son. He said "That's inhumane!", I said "no it isn't, the cat was dead!", his response? "Do you want us to do that to you when you die?" Me: "Heck yeah, that would be cool!"
@ginidietrich the one about the guy making a motorbike to escape the desert is nuts!! full respect (love the blog btw)
@timryanme Crazy, huh? I'm not sure I have those kinds of MacGyver skillz!
@ginidietrich I'd settle for high speed rail between here and various destinations in WI. CHI-MKE doesn't cut it.
@kevinmcelligott I agree. It kind of stinks.
@JamieCKennedy LOL!
You are so bad @ginidietrich now you know the two things I will be pursuing with Lili. Saying Frog and making her into a helicopter but a live one of course.
@HowieSPM I think you have to make her dead pet into a helicopter.
I just LOVE Saturday's with Gin and Topics….no matter how stressful life gets, I know at the end of the week, I can rely on @ginidietrich to share great stories on Gin and Topics. @hotwater911 and I laughed our way through "frog baby" "oatmeal piggie" and "dead cat helicopter" . And now…we're ready to face the day!!
@SocialMediaDDS AND you were able to get through your race yesterday. My work here is done! 🙂
The helicopter cat is kind of creepy….
@Hajra Isn't it? Who does that??
@ginidietrich I showed it to my cat-loving-mom and she is scarred for life…
Well Hamlet made my life. I've got a more than minor obsession with the play (took a whole course just in Hamlet!) and this video reminds me why I love piggies so much. They are just so smart and cute! And thank you for sharing the cat-icopter. People need to know.
@RebeccaTodd My mom emailed me on Saturday and all it said was, "That cat helicopter is disgusting."
@ginidietrich Hah my family thought it was genius, but we are weirdos…tweeting you a pic of my nephew and his deer leg coat rack.
