Looks ugly out there; actually, the postgame forecast looks uglier. Be careful if you're out there too. I've been called off, so if you say "forget it" too, hang out here. We'll listen to Phil and follow Corey and see what excitement comes.
If you had tickets for this one, the team said this morning it'll allow you to exchange them for seats to games Dec. 21 (ManchVegas), Dec. 22 (Albany, so that one's dicey) or Dec. 26 (Hartford in the traditional back-from-Christmas game). The Pink Rink Night jersey auction will carry on to that Dec. 26 game. Awesome: Bid 'em up.
Did the math this afternoon: Bridgeport has basically no appetizing and viable makeup dates available this season; there were maybe nine that could work against Providence, a slew of midweek games plus Easter.
So anyway. Box'll be here. We'll check back closer to gametime.
It's a year ago tonight that Brock Nelson broke his jaw in Norfolk. Which I only remember because so much of the rest of that day seared itself into my head. Thoughts with the families and friends of those 26 angels.
A night after beating Bridgeport 6-1, Albany leads Hartford 3-0 after one. The Devils came into today with the third-best record, by percentage, in the conference. New Jersey's AHL affiliate has made the playoffs just once since 2000 (2010, when Lowell and Bridgeport were head-to-head to the wire, and that last loss gave the Devils the fourth seed in the Atlantic and sent Bridgeport to the East to play Hershey); its last finish this high was 1998-99.
–Whoa wait what — I seem to be getting the Islanders at home tonight. Not typically supposed to. Huh. Awaiting lineup tweets from Bridgeport.
–Pretty much color-on-color tonight, it appears from Corey's tweet of Anders Nilsson in the Pink Rink sweater. It's black with pink trim. The Bruins are in their home
yellows golds.
–Kevin Duffy on the decision to play football today.
–Haven't seen lines or anything yet. Mark Divver tweeted this morning that Nik Svedberg starts for the Bruins. The lineup on the box doesn't include Jon Sim or Sean Wiles but does include Andrey Pedan (doubtful; don't believe he's been skating) and Marc Cantin (much more plausible) and Riley Wetmore and Kirill Kabanov (healthy scratches last night as far as we know).
Lines from Corey:
D: Donovan-Cornell
G: Nilsson
–Robins-Bruton early on; it ends with a quick Robins left.
–Lowry wins a left-circle draw, and Cornell fires it through Svedberg to make it 1-0 Bridgeport at 11:52. It's Cornell's second as a pro, and Lowry's first AHL point in his 14th game.
–Phil says Johan Sundstrom went off with a towel to his face a few shifts after the goal.
–Quine takes his time and tees up a blocked shot that caroms to him, pretty much wide open in the slot, to make it 2-0. All that teeing up kind of froze the Bruins' defenders, it appeared. Good start.
–2-0 after one. Bridgeport outshoots Providence 16-7.
–By the way, disappointing: Someone at the cable company must've figured out we weren't supposed to get the Islanders. Went out just before the game.
–Two notes at the second-period opening faceoff: Sundstrom takes it, so he's OK; and Subban in goal for Providence. Phil keeps saying he was told Subban would start, but Mark Divver tweeted Svedberg's start this morning. Anyway.
–Subban put an early rebound right on Chris Bruton's stick: goes wide.
–Scout Night, I guess. Shame about the weather. Providence had a really good shift, pinning Bridgeport (with the long change) for about two minutes, but not long after that Tommy Cross holds up Brett Gallant. Two Bridgeport PPs in the first half of the second period.
–The great-name pairing of Dallas Jackson-Scooter Vaughan reminds me: our girls swimming all-star team today had a Pond and a Poole. Awesome. Anyway, still 2-0 after two. Good period for Nilsson, who had to be good on some of those extended shifts.
—Prescout. Manchester's up big. Who has the worse ride, the Monarchs from Glens Falls or Bridgeport from home?
–If I caught it correctly, what I think you'd call the second unit started all three power plays so far. Could be coincidence (this time, Donovan ran the left point instead of Keenan to start).
–Phil says he won't use the 'S' word. I will: Nilsson's two shutouts, the first was a 26-save deal against Albany, and the second was a 25-save game against Manchester. At last refresh, Providence has 22 shots.
–Flick's left-circle shot is blocked by Bruton right to Florek at the bottom of the right circle to break up the shutout with 12.6 seconds left. But Nilsson wins it, anyway: Bridgeport 2, Providence 1, final (though Anders Lee can't pull a Ryan Strome and beat the buzzer with an empty-netter).
–Didn't wrap this up, but as you'll probably guess, another one of these tomorrow from Manchester. See you then.

The 8.9-magnitude earthquake that struck Japan this week didn't just trigger a massive tsunami. It also caused an atomic-power emergency at the the Fukushima No. 1 plant in Fukushima Prefecture, where 3,000 people in a two-mile radius around the plant were forced to evacuate due to an overheated reactor. It's a black mark for nuclear-power advocates the world over—and confirmation to the anti-nuclear camp that nuclear energy can be a dangerous beast. The question is: Can we prevent this kind of disaster from happening again?
The problem with the Fukushima plant is the direct result of a 40-year-old, poorly designed nuclear core containment device, claims Kevin Kamps, a radioactive waste expert at Beyond Nuclear, an anti-nuclear group. The Japanese did retrofit the containment structures with ventilation systems to prevent pressure buildup, but when the vents release steam and pressure, they also release radioactivity. This is happening now, according to the Los Angeles Times, as Japan releases what it calls "slightly radioactive" vapor from the plant. Japan's nuclear safety agency has said it won't cause a threat to people's health.
It is possible to design earthquake-proof nuclear plants—for a price. New reactors in the U.S cost upwards of $15 billion, and adding the thick concrete and strong rebar necessary to withstand an 8.9-plus magnitude earthquake could tack on at least another billion dollars, estimates Kamps.
It's hard to say if any currently operating nuclear plants—or even plants in the pipeline—could buck disaster in a scenario like Japan's. The most popular new reactor design in the U.S, the Toshiba Westinghouse AP1000, is supposed to be able to withstand earthquakes, tornadoes, and even crashing airliners. But John S. Ma, a member of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), suggests that may not be the case because materials used in construction are too brittle. "It has not been demonstrated that the building can absorb and dissipate energy imparted on the structure by an impact or a seismic event," he claimed in a statement. Nevertheless, the design is moving toward NRC approval, and 24 units have been ordered already in the U.S.
The Japan disaster might hamper Congress's rumored plans in the days and weeks to come to launch a nuclear power push. "It's ironic timing," says Kamps. At the very least, Japan's disaster should serve as a warning: natural disasters cannot be underestimated when designing nuclear structures.

Goi Peace Foundation Forum 2009
Presentation by Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D.
for Talk Session Toward Our Positive Future
Just as personal beliefs affect our personal lives, cultural beliefs actually shape our culture. We manifest whatever we are taught as a cultural belief.
Since the dawn of time, we humans have always asked some very important questions. They are called the "perennial questions." These questions are:
How did we get here?
Why are we here?
Now that we are here, how do we make the best of it?
When a civilization accepts the answers for these questions from some entity or organization, that entity or organization becomes the "official" truth provider for that civilization. When people have questions about life's mysteries, they seek their answers from civilization's official truth provider.
Over time, the accepted way of life in the civilization becomes defined by the answers to the perennial questions. These answers provide for a civilization's "Basal Paradigm," which simply means "the fundamental beliefs that shape the characteristics of a civilization."
Inevitably, over time, the conventional basal paradigm beliefs lead to challenges for the civilization. That's when people seek better answers for the questions. When the majority of people accept new answers for the perennial questions from a new truth provider, that entity or organization becomes the shaper of the next version of civilization.
For example, in Western civilization, the Church of Rome provided the answers to these questions and formed the civilization referred to as Monotheism:
How did we get here? Divine Creation
Why are we here? To live out plays of morality
Now that we are here, how do we make the best of it? Follow the laws of the Bible
The Church's beliefs were used to shape the civilization. However its corruption led to challenges and this precipitated the Protestant Reformation. When the "truth" of the Church could be questioned, it led to the rise of Science. However, science could not take over control of the Basal Paradigm until they could provide a better answer for the first question, "How did we get here?" That occurred in 1860 when Charles Darwin's theory of evolution was accepted by both science and the public as the reason we are here.
After Darwin's ideas for evolution replaced the Church's story of creation, Science became civilization's "official" truth provider. The new answers to the perennial questions have created today's civilization referred to as Scientific Materialism:
How did we get here? Random genetic mutations
Why are we here? No reason…it was an accident of genetic mutations
Now that we are here, how do we make the best of it? Live by the Laws of the Jungle
This current civilization is referred to as "Scientific Materialism" because the science is based on Newtonian physics, a field of science that perceives of the universe as a physical machine made out of matter and does not consider invisible forces as influential in shaping the material world.
According to Darwinian theory, all organisms are in a constant struggle to survive and the winners are referred to as the "fittest." Darwinian theory emphasizes that competition and beating the loser is a fundamental character of life in this eternal struggle for survival.
However, the fundamental beliefs of Materialistic Science that shape the way we live in the world have changed, especially over the last 20-30 years. While the original beliefs were helpful in moving human evolution forward, those same beliefs are now threatening our survival. Continuing to follow the same way of life is leading to our own extinction.
New science reveals that there are four fundamental beliefs that shape the behavior of human civilization, which are now found to be flawed. Continuing to follow the old beliefs will inevitably lead to the end of civilization. These dangerous flawed beliefs are referred to as "The Four Myth-Perceptions of the Apocalypse."
Myth 1: Biology is based on Newtonian Physics, which only recognizes the value of the material, physical realm. This is why humanity is so involved with accumulating "matter," which includes money. This quest has led to the destruction of our environment in extracting the Earth's material resources. Also, the belief in materialism disconnects us from the role of the invisible spiritual realm.
Revised Science: The new physics, quantum physics, states that matter and energy are one and the same. In uniting the two, it also unites all other polarities (e.g. good-bad, male-female, Creation-Evolution, conservative-liberal, right–wrong) and brings harmony to our world.
Quantum physics also acknowledges that invisible energy forces play an important role in shaping our world. These invisible forces include human consciousness, which has a profound role in creating our life experiences.
Revised Science: The new belief about heredity is called "Epigenetic Control," which literally means "control-above-the-genes." Our perceptions of the world (our beliefs, attitudes, and emotions) are the signals that control the gene activity of our cells. The new science on how DNA is regulated reveals that our perception of environmental signals activates our genes and controls our behavior.
Since we can change how we respond to the world, we can change our genetic activity. We can become masters of our destiny by controlling our perceptions and beliefs. When we come to learn how to control our lives, we must also become personally responsible for what we create with our minds.
Myth 3: The Darwinian theory suggests that evolution is based on a competition for fitness in an eternal struggle for survival. The world is a rat-race where we compete to stay alive. Because we live in constant threat of survival, we have learned to live in fear, a behavior that leads to destructive competition, violence and war. We create a constant struggle based on win-lose outcomes concerning our life's actions. The stress from this behavior is the primary cause of human illness.
Revised Science: Evolution is not based on struggle. The new theories of evolution reveal that progress is made through cooperation and NOT competition. Supporting each other and creating communities is the behavioral key needed to experience sustainable harmony in our world.
Myth 4: Darwinian theory emphasizes that "random" mutations initiate evolution. This means that humans and other organisms in the biosphere were derived from simple accidents of genetics, and they have no other purpose than to reproduce. Our existence is perceived to be the result of an endless series of win-lose confrontations.
Revised Science: Organisms were created through "adaptive" mutations, genetic changes shaped by the organism's interaction with the environment. The evolution of every new species is associated with Nature attempting to balance and create harmony in the environment. As each new organism is introduced to bring the biosphere into balance, at first it does so. But over time, the new organism will overgrow the balance and Nature will create another new species to bring the environment back into balance. This cycle repeated over and over again has given rise to all the organisms on this planet.
The evolution of humans led to an organism that has the greatest influence in effecting the environment's balance. Not being aware of our evolutionary responsibility we have wrecked havoc in the environment and are currently destroying it AND ourselves.
Our mission is not to destroy the Garden but to tend the Garden. When we change our ways of life, we will find that our evolutionary progress will be driven by love and altruism among all humans. All of our evolved interactions will lead to win-win scenarios and a sustainable world.
The new revised science offer life sustaining answers to the perennial questions and becomes the foundation of the next version of civilization that we may refer to as Holism:
How did we get here? Adaptive genetic mutations
Why are we here? To tend the Garden and acquire awareness
Now that we are here, how do we make the best of it? Live in community and in harmony with Nature
When civilization adopts these new revisions of science, we will be able to sustain our survival and learn to live in harmony and peace as one giant community of humans, collectively referred to as humanity.
Evolution is thought to be a long slow imperceptible process occurring over billions of years. This is not true. Evolution advances with slow gradual increases followed by a significant jump. It is called "punctuated equilibrium," a new science that says that we go along until some crisis causes us to jump and make a change.
Prokaryote cells (bacteria) first formed on this planet over 3.5 billion years ago. Bacteria lived here for a billion years as single cells, but then they started to form communities. Colonies of bacteria came together and shared a membrane around them to protect them from the outer world, and this evolved into Eukaryote cells or amoeba. This was the first jump. We see the amoeba as a single cell, but it actually represents a colony of bacteria that learned to live in harmony.
Then the amoeba started to come together and formed communities of amoebas, and these are called colonies. Then the colonies of amoebas evolved into humans about a million years ago. That is when we took the next jump. We are a colony of 50 trillion amoeba cells that are living under one skin. The single entity of humans over history started to form small communities of humans.
The next level of human evolution is not related to changes in the individual human being. The evolutionary directive now is that we are beginning to recognize that all the humans on this planet belong to one species, a super-organism called Humanity. We are each a cell in the body of something much bigger. If we continue to fight each other and compete with each other, we create what in medicine is called "auto-immune disease," which means self-destruction. The planet is in a process of self-destruction. We will survive only if all 7 billion humans start working together as one living system.
This is a most exciting time for humans on this planet because we are going to see an evolutionary jump where nations recognize that they are like organs in one body. All the organs and all the cells will be working together to create the harmony of one living planet.
In this process, the old institutions (including the economy, politics, government, healthcare, academia, etc.) created by the current civilization—the one shaped by the beliefs of Scientific Materialism—must crumble before we create the new institutions that support the revised beliefs offered by modern science.
So today's crises are symptoms of the collapse of the old way of life and the beginning of a new way.

Works very well
By Bun49
from Largo, FL, USA
Love the results of this steam cleaner, but find the water runs out a little too soon. Maybe this won't be a problem if I use it on a regular basis and don't need to stay in the same area as long.

A must have for grout and hard water build up!
By Mychael
from Dallas, TX, USA
I've had my Steam Shot for just at a year now. I can't tell you how much I've used this and my Bissell Steam Mop. The Steam Shot, with the Red Brush attachment, or the Grout Brush, is the absolute best for cleaning grout. I was completely shocked to find out the grout in my kitchen floor was not very dark brown, but grey after using the Steam Shot on all the grout. I have full glass shower doors, and we have very hard water, and the calcium builds up on the doors quickly. It also builds up on all the tile work. I use the Steam Shot to easily remove the hard water build up and make my glass doors sparkle. TIP: After cleaning glass doors with the Steam Shot, dry well with lint free free cloth. Then apply Rain-Ex, the stuff you put on your auto windshield, to the glass doors as directed on the bottle. This makes the water run off and hard water build up takes a lot longer to build up. I like this product, and the steam mop, so much, I purchased both for my best friend when he purchased a new house with all tile floors. I highly recommend the Bissell Steam Shot for large and small hard to clean areas.

Doesnt do much of anything
By Sandra
from Green Bay, WI
I just bought this and was excited to use it. I was totally disappointed, it didn't take off soap scum, it didn't clean my oven, it didn't clean my sink, I don't think its powerful at all. A sponge and soap would clean better and faster. The water tank is so small you have to let it sit for 5 minutes in between filling the tank.
Great Handheld Steamer

Didn't last long
By jlogan1014
I used this item once when I first purchased it. Then I had it in the closet for quite sometime as I did not need it. About 6-8 months after purchase I went to use it and it no longer worked. The water wouldn't steam and it would leak everywhere. Unfortunately I was past the warranty point, but it was also bulky and messy.
I LOVE THE STEAM ShOT!
By steamgirl
from Hudson Valley, NY
I wondered if I can sterilize my dishes without breaking them by using this? Right now my dishwasher is broken so I'd love a way to sterilize them without boiling water. The steam that comes out is HOT and POWERFUL. So powerful, that I am concerned using it on windows or mirrors because I don't want to break them! Here are some of my successes: I cleaned my Jacuzzi tub - the nozzles etc. I used it for a mysterious odor in one bedroom. I cleaned the wooden walls (I have a log cabin# and the smell is gone. It also cleans out dust between the panels. Love cleaning with it, knowing that it sterilizes. I also have the Bissell Symphony and it vacuums AND steams! One of the reviews had mentioned that this steamer doesn't suck up stuff, so to use a cloth to follow the steam to wipe things up. Well, the Symphony does! Its a great machine! Thanks Bissell for both items - good designs #except the hand held steamer falls over and won't stand up)

I got mine last week the next day used it on my floor grout as I am 76 and in need of both knee replacements. It worked fantastic; the floor hasn't looked this great since I moved into my new home 10 years ago.

Let's Go Bucs
After 18 consecutive losing seasons, the formerly hapless Pittsburgh Pirates are heading into the All-Star break four games over .500 and exactly ONE game out of the division lead. The TV commentators were speculating this afternoon about a possible run for the division during the second half of the season, or at least the wildcard. Just getting to .500 used to be the elusive dream and now we're talking playoffs!
The statistics are staggering for this 2011 edition of the Buccos.
Last year, win #45 came on September 3. This year? July 6. They matched last year's road win total (17) on June 1.
The last time they sent three players to the All-Star game? 1990.
Closer Joel Hanrahan gives a whole new meaning to HammerTime. He's 26 for 26 in save opportunities this season. Only one reliever in the majors, Craig Kimbrel, has more saves and he's only got one more than Hanrahan.
Despite a high number of injuries, resulting in a roster heavy with rookies, the team is playing better than it has in years. Both starting catchers went down the same week, and the top minor-league prospect was also injured. The team went shopping and snagged the Red Sox AAA catcher, Mike McKenry. Make that "Fort McKenry." He's a wall behind the plate, and finally got the bat going on Friday night with his first major league home run, a game winner. (Someone really needs to get on making a Fort McKenry shirt. I'll be first in line to buy one.)
I'm not even afraid to buy a shirt with a player's name and number on it. Just a couple of years ago the Pirates were sure to sell or trade their best players, usually the guy on the shirt I just bought. Eleanor is still sporting a Freddie Sanchez shirt.
Most of all, and if you've ever seen Bull Durham or Major League you know what I'm talking about, the players and coaches are having an absolute blast. Anyone who saw the Pirates' dugout under John Russell's leadership saw a team having absolutely.no.fun.at.all.
I'm gushing, I know, but these Pirates are totally gush-worthy. I'm wishing I could be at the ballpark every night. (It's always been a really beautiful park, even when the team sucked.) The city is responding and sell-outs are regular happenings, rather than noteworthy events.
Raise the jolly roger, dammit. LET'S GO BUCS!
If you're thinking about catching a little bit of the magic in person, follow this link and use the code "clumberkim" for ticket discounts.
[Disclaimer: The Pirates are kicking me a tiny commission on tickets sold with my code. Really tiny. I'm in it for the chance to win a piece of signed memorabilia for Oliver.]

Election correction: No more legislating through constitution
Publisher's Notebook
David Phillips
, Bluff Country Newspaper Group
Tuesday, November 13, 2012 7:46 AM
I stand corrected. Contrary to my opinion last week, it appears highly unlikely that Minnesota lawmakers will ever try to govern by constitutional amendment again. The voters of Minnesota sent a strong message in last week's general election.
Not only did Minnesota voters soundly reject the two constitutional amendments, they also flipped the state House and Senate from Republican to DFL control, a possible consequence of Republicans trying to get their way by legislating through the state constitution on the issues of marriage and voter ID. State Rep. Greg Davids, R-Preston, is one of several officials that believes the amendments on the ballot hurt Republicans statewide, particularly in suburban areas.
There's a danger in writing a column before the election that is then published for public view after the election results are known. When I sat down to write last week's column on Monday, I didn't foresee the voters' wrath, or at least the strength of that wrath. My feeling going into the election was that the conclusion would be inconclusive and we need to be prepared for governance by constitutional amendment as the parties become even more entrenched in their "team" mentality, at the expense of constituents.
The election was a pleasant surprise. Not only does the amendment process appear dead, leaders from the winning party aren't talking about retaliation. Instead, they say they are looking at conciliation and a cautious approach in the next legislative session as "compromise" has become a popular word for all politicians, thanks to the message from Minnesota voters.
Prior to the election as I heard people talk, I had a feeling the marriage amendment would fail, although I figured it would be by a razor thin margin.
I didn't have any inclination that the voter ID amendment would fail, though. Support for it had a strong lead in the months before the election and the issue had a simple argument in favor - if people need photo identification to buy beer, why shouldn't they need it to vote?
Because it was a more complex issue than it seemed and the arguments on both sides were based more on reason than the emotion that energized the marriage amendment, I decided to write a column on this issue three weeks ago, even if I did think it was a lost cause.
In the end, most people, except the ones that believe in conspiracy theories, seemed to understand the complexities and reinforced my faith in the wisdom of voters.
Although the governor has said the voting mechanics could use some changes to improve the process, anything like the proposal before the voters last week is a dead issue now.
The fate of the definition of marriage isn't so clear, though.
As I wrote last week, I thought the whole reason the proposal ended up on the ballot had more to do with politics than morals. I had a paragraph in my original column that noted if any legislators really backed this on moral grounds, their support for a political maneuver may backfire because defeat opens up the possibility of a push to change the law in Minnesota through legislation. I struck it out of my finished column because I thought to myself "that won't happen. After all, if the majority of legislators were able to get it on the ballot, a slim margin of defeat isn't going to change their minds 180 degrees."
Now, the makeup of the Legislature has changed dramatically, so who knows what will happen? For those officials who cynically defended their decision by arguing the people have a right to decide this important issue - well, they got their wish.
Now the question is what exactly did voters decide? That a definition of marriage between one man and one woman shouldn't be ingrained in the constitution or that this isn't an acceptable definition at all for Minnesota?
The emotional arguments on both sides gave the message that voting yes or no is the difference between allowing same-sex marriage in Minnesota. The fear-based scenarios all highlighted the consequences if same-sex marriage is allowed or forever denied. The argument could be made that this was a referendum on allowing same-sex marriage. Other interpretations are also possible and identifying that message from voters will be for legislators to decide later.
For now, the politicians got the clear message that the people don't want our elected officials to legislate through putting divisive, political issues on the ballot in the form of constitutional amendments.
I never imagined I would think this, but the millions of dollars spent and the heated exchanges that occurred as a result of the amendments on the ballot produced one good thing - a fitting end to this process.

At SubaruPR.com we at times take a moment to highlight a particular dealer. Today we highlight a particularly special subaru dealer ct, Dan Perkins Subaru. Why are we featuring this dealer? Because of a recent press release that detailed the work they've done to donate blood, adopt pets, and donate to charity. This CT dealership also offers a lifetime warranty on their new vehicles and many of their used vehicles, something that only a small percentage of other dealers in the larger area are offering.
When choosing a dealer you may also need help with financing. This can make the car buying or leasing process quite the ordeal. Dan Perkins Subaru offers financing in-house. So it's basically one-stop shopping, and not only that, but recent reviews coming in to dealer.com and yelp.com, for example, are showing that the sales attendants there are matching and beating best prices found online.
For these reasons and more – if you live in the greater Connecticut area, including New York, I recommend checking out Dan Perkins Subaru.

KDE OBS Generator Builds KDE Packages for Various Distros
Building distro-specific packages is not one of the strengths of most developers. The KDE OBS Generator should solve this problem with the help of openSUSE Build Services.
The idea for kde-obs-generator emerged from CampKDE and FOSDEM. Since then, Novell employee Lubo Lunák has uploaded its first developer version on kde-apps.org. The program creates RPM and Debian packages for openSUSE Build Services (OBS) supported distros without having to know very much about package building. A few command line commands in kde-obs-generator will easily create packages, according to Lunák. He has tested it on Plasma, KDM and KSplash themes, simple wallpapers and, of course, KDE apps themselves. The tool should greatly simplify uploading content to the kde-apps.org site, for example.
The list of supported distros currently includes openSUSE, Fedora, Mandriva, Kubuntu and the SUSE Linux Enterprise products. Unfortunately Debian is currently excluded because "Lenny," the only supported release, does not deliver KDE 4 packages. First attempts to solve this problem are under way.
Lunák ends his blog with a request for non-SUSE users to find a better solution than the current manual installation using http://download.opensuse.org. There's always hope that OBS will provide the repositories sometime soon.

by Diane Gremmel
Charlotte King is a pleasant, talkative Oregon wife and grandmother. She enjoys time with friends, cares for her husband, and never met a stray cat she didn't try to help. She is liked by her neighbors and enjoys chatting with friends on the phone. The thing that makes Charlotte different is she has been studied by scientists, consulted by government agencies and pursued by media for much of her life. Charlotte King is the woman who can use her body to predict earthquakes, and if the Library of Congress volunteer study known as "Project Migraine" is correct, then her accuracy is truly astounding.
Charlotte King was a busy young housewife and mother in 1976, when she began to hear strange noises that never seemed to stop. Sometimes the sounds would speed up or slow down. At other times the rhythm would vary or the sounds would be pitched up or down.
"It sounded kind of like a foghorn," she remembers. "I had no idea what it was or why I was hearing it, I just knew that it wasn't normal. No one could tell me what was happening."
Charlotte's aunt would later remember that as a toddler, Charlotte was very upset by certain types of noise, covering her ears and screaming. This sensitivity to sound seemed to fade as she matured, but now the problem was back. Since 1976, the sound has been a permanent part of Charlotte's life, having never ceased even for a moment. It would take time for her to understand that this problem was also a gift.
A whale beaching on the Oregon coast in June of 1979 provided the first clue about what the young mother was hearing.
"It suddenly occurred to me that the whales could have been hearing the same noise that I did, that their sense of direction might have been affected by the sound frequencies. If there were underwater fault lines that were shifting, that could account for the whale's confusion. Finally I understood that something else was hearing what I heard."
She put in a call to experts in mammal behavior, who researched the fault lines and considered her theory had merit. Finally, the answers were starting to come.
In September of that year, new symptoms appeared.
"I was terrified. I was 30 years old, and suddenly I was having painful heart palpitations. My ears became very sore, and the ache was almost unbearable. I didn't know what to do; I just knew that I was way too young to be having such horrible symptoms."
The answer came by accident. Three days later there was a massive earthquake in Italy. While listening to a radio show, she heard an interview with an Italian doctor who remarked on the large number of cases he had seen just before the earthquake. A number of people had approached him with unexplained pain in the ears, and several had experienced chest pains. At last, the symptoms Charlotte suffered were beginning to make sense.
Soon after her discovery, Charlotte began to call her predictions in to the local ABC affiliate, KATU in Portland, Oregon
"I was learning about how this worked, and I wanted to have someone in media who could verify that I had made these predictions."
Thomas G. Brown, at that time the assistant assignment editor, took the predictions with a grain of salt, but eventually he had to admit there was something very unusual about Charlotte King. In a letter praising her ability, he wrote:
The reason for my change in belief is due to the fact that after she first informed me of the noise she hears and said that the noise is always followed by an earthquake, I decided to keep a record for myself. I also talked to other people about Ms. King so I could check her story out for a possible news story for Channel 2. In my investigation I discovered that she had also been in contact with a Dr. Jenson, a professor at Oregon State University. I was told by Dr. Jenson that Charlotte King has the ability to hear low tones that are five times below the norm and high tones ten times above normal.
Later in the same letter, Brown credited her with making 36 correct predictions out of 36 that he documented.
Other studies placed her accuracy at anywhere from 85 to 100 percent, and the world began to take notice. Over several years Charlotte would find herself on every program from Strange Universe to the Merv Griffin show. She would address city governments and disaster relief organizations. She was featured in dozens of articles as well as a book by author Ruth Montgomery.
Eventually, scientists would label certain biological sensitivities as "The Charlotte King Effect." To Charlotte, however, this is a gift that we can all enjoy and use.
"Everyone, or at least most people, can pay attention to certain symptoms that they have, and learn from them. Some people will be more gifted than others, but we can all do this."
NEXT: In our next installment Charlotte talks about her continuing journey and about the signs of upcoming earthquakes.

The cast for David O. Russell's The Fighter is shaping up to be one talent filled ensemble. The cast currently includes Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale as half-brothers, and Oscar nominee Melissa Leo as their mother. Now according to THR, Amy Adams is nearing a deal to join the cast.
The Fighter is a boxing flick that stars Bale as Dicky Eklund, the brother of Wahlberg's "Irish" Mickey Ward. After kicking a bad drug habit, Eklund turns his life around and helps his brother to win the world lightweight championship. Adams will come on board to as Charlene, "a tough, gritty bartender and former college high-jumper from Massachusetts who ends up dating Mickey."
The Fighter begins production next month in Lowell, Massachusetts and will be distributed by Paramount.
Wouldn't it be great if this film turned out to be the piece of work that finally gets Bale some serious critical attention? We all know he's got the acting chops, he's just never received as much recognition as his cast mates. Even Mark Wahlberg has an Oscar nomination, and I never thought I'd see that day.
What do you think of Amy Adams joining the cast?

Hey asilvester635.
I agree with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7: well done.
For number 8 this just means that P(A and B) != P(A)P(B)
When an event is independent it means that conditioning on that event doesn't change the outcome. Typically we write this as P(A|B) = P(A) for any event B not including the null event which is not a proper event in a probability space even though it is accepted as a special kind of set member in set theory.
If you have a sequence of events in any probability space, then P(A|B) = P(A) for independence (i.e. its memory-less) or if not then P(A|B) != P(A) for dependent and non-memory less events.

A new documentary about the environment, produced and narrated by
Leonardo diCaprio, lists Peter deMenocal '82 as one of the 72
experts consulted for the film, titled The 11th Hour.
deMenocal is
is an associate research scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth
Observatory of Columbia University. His research focuses on analyzing the
geochemistry and composition of marine sediments in order to reconstruct
past changes in ocean circulation and terrestrial climate, with a primary
focus on the signatures and causes of tropical-extratropical climate
linkages over various timescales. His most current research focuses on
African climate change and its link to early human evolution over the
last several million years, signatures of ocean and climate variability
over the last 12,000 years of the present warm climate period, and
paleoclimate applications of climate model simulations. deMenocal earned
the Ph.D. and master's degree from Columbia University, as well as
a master's degree in oceanography from the University of Rhode
Island. His St. Lawrence degree is in geology.
An adjunct research scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory,
with whom deMenocal has collaborated on several published papers, is
classmate Brad Linsley '82, associate professor of earth and atmospheric
sciences at
SUNY Albany. Linsley also earned his St. Lawrence degree
in geology, and the Ph.D. at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque.

We Interviewed Record Engineer John Siket
By Adam Lehrer
Record engineer John Siket has been a part of the NYC music scene for over 30 years. Growing up, he lamented his inability to play music, stressing over trying to play Pink Floyd riffs. He discovered his talent for recording sounds in 1983 when his pizza-boy salary earned him enough money to buy a $250 Moog synthesizer at RadioShack and instantly fell in love with sound manipulation.
Siket is a quintessential NYC underground producer, having worked with some of the city's most infamous bands like Sonic Youth, Yo La Tengo, and Blonde Redhead. He's also worked with mainstream bands and doesn't see one style of music being better than the other. He is just as excited about his work with big-selling bands like Phish or Fountains of Wayne as he is with the likes of the Replacements and Helmet.
His work with radio-ready bands may alienate people whose lives were changed the first time they heard Yo la Tengo, but Siket has always used his good fortunes to help out the little guys.
His most recent work for the little guys is with Ex-Cops, whose "True Hallucinations" he engineered. I recently spoke with him in his midtown studio (where he seems to work, eat, and sleep) about his career, what he sees as a "renaissance" in Brooklyn's music scene, why he wants in on it, and why it is sometimes imperative to make a Pokemon album to help out the little guy.
At that point, I knew I had to go to Manhattan, I got a job on 45th Street at a studio called Sound on Sound. It was an elite studio. I didn't have seniority, but I had more recording experience than most guys there because I worked with Yo la Tengo and a lot of indie bands in Hoboken. The manager of the studio had a sense that I knew what I was doing.
One day in 1992, I saw on the calendar that Butch Vig and Andy Wallace with Sonic Youth were booked for this studio.
Meanwhile, I was working with a band called Cell. Their drummer played the rough mixes for Butch and Sonic Youth, and Thurston [of Sonic Youth] and Butch were impressed. I couldn't believe that I had done something Butch was into.
Andy Wallace also had some buzz for the first Helmet record.
Was that when it clicked that you could make a decent living out of this?
Not only that, there was an excitement in the music industry. Pearl Jam came by the studio, the Beasties Boys, Soundgarden, and all of these bands started to come merely because Sonic Youth was at our studio.
It was like the old metal gods had died, and grunge was coming. It was hip and it was good-looking and the chicks liked it and the bands had something to say. It was a brief period when the underground had become the mainstream. That Cell record, which was done on a modest budget, got signed to Geffen. It was like bang, I was an indie producer turned mainstream.
Gentrification has hurt Manhattan's rock club scene. It used to be that I would drive in, and there were so many places to see bands. Manhattan has unfortunately become an island of investment bankers and Starbucks.
He once said to me, "What's the Steve Lilywhite sound? The sound of any artist at their best."
Sonic Youth taught me to stop dressing the music up and just record the band how they sound. I learned a lot from Sonic Youth, to not make it too slick.

For the first time since last December, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have a home game televised locally.
The Bucs just announced they have reached the necessary threshold to lift the television blackout for Sunday's game with the New Orleans Saints at Raymond James Stadium. But that doesn't mean the game is a complete sellout.
"We're pleased to have reached the 85% of general admission seats needed for local broadcast of this Sunday's game versus the New Orleans Saints, which leaves us with the remaining 15 percent of tickets (starting at $30) available for this exciting divisional showdown," vice president of business administration Brian Ford said.
The Bucs are one of a handful of teams to elect to use 85 percent of general-admission seating as their threshold for a sellout.
The last home game the Bucs sold out was Dec. 17 of last year against Dallas. They also sold out a game last season with the Indianapolis Colts. But those were the only two games (including preseason) that were televised locally since the start of the 2010 season.
Is this a sign that fans are starting to warm up to new coach Greg Schiano and his new team? I think that's part of it. Last week's impressive victory against Kansas City Chiefs had to help some at the box office. I think the Saints also are a drawing card. Although New Orleans isn't off to a good start, the Saints still are a popular team with a large amount of fans in the Tampa Bay area.

Vertex and Pixel Lighting
ATI chips used to do vertex and pixel lighting faster than NVIDIA, but the new driver from NVIDIA changes the rankings dramatically. The GeForce FX 5950 Ultra is a little better than the RADEON 9800 XT in the low resolution and competes with it in the high one. The mainstream GPUs perform at the same level; the difference between their results is sometimes less than 1fps. The ForceWare driver does its job well – boosts the performance of the GeForce FX architecture in shader-heavy scenes. At least, it does well in the AquaMark3 tests.
When FSAA and AF are enabled, the high frequencies and the shader code optimizer in ForceWare 52.16 can do nothing to help the GeForce based cards to catch up with the GPUs from ATI Technologies.
3D Volumetric Fog
The GeForce FX GPUs, including the mass models, are better at rendering volume fog. The programmers who wrote the ForceWare driver solved the problem: the latest chips from NVIDIA perform much faster with the new driver.
Again, the VPUs from ATI are faster under high workloads, although the GeForce FX 5950 Ultra is on the level of the RADEON 9800 XT in 1024x768.

I'm 24 and there is no way I'm missing the FULL set. I was raised on the Replacements, Husker Du and The Pixies. The rest of my "peers" can go watch Outkast, in fact, I'd prefer it.
I am a miserable piece of shit actually. I only listen to vinyl and cassettes and find out about new bands from zines in underground night clubs which may sound lame, but I guarantee you it's much more rewarding than calling someone a miserable piece of shit on a music fest. forum. So, eat a dick on that or did I make too much sense for your mind to take?
Anyway, glad to see there are a few Replacements fans on here!
fuck. fuck. fuck. fuck. FUUUUUUUCK. FUCK.
I'm gonna shit my ass at this set.
honestly I've only been listening to the Replacements for a little over a year, but in that time they've become one of my all time favorite bands. I've barely gone a day without listening to them.
So seeing them on the lineup was kind of insane. This is going to be pretty much the culmination of the last year for me and I'm so god damn excited.

"Constantinople" was just them fucking around on guitar between songs. Maybellene pretty much the same. I had never heard (or heard of) "Nowhere Is My Home". "Psychopharmacology" is a Grandpaboy song. 4 songs off of "Sorry Ma". weird setlist. great set though.
they fuckin ruled! just wish they played "kiss me on the bus" and "i will dare"..i'm lucky enough to have seen them at riot fest..but coachella is definitely not a place for old bands anymore...it's quite sad..majority of these people just want to hear pop shit and dance...i'm honestly so curious to see how empty the mojave is going to be for motorhead today
I wish all surviving members were in the reunited Replacements, but I still enjoyed their set. It should have been more crowded.
I thought they sounded awesome. I expected Paul's voice to be a little smoother so I'm glad he still has some grit in it. This would of been my favorite set of the weekend if they had played more Tim or Let It Be material. They really did miss some big songs.
"Mr. Toad's Wild Aidz."
The set wasn't that great, for me. I'm glad that the majority of people who saw their set loved it, but christ it was painful watching them hash out all of those (in my opinion) terrible early period songs. I also love that it's somehow acceptable that Paul can forget the majority of the lyrics to Androgynous but not those other songs. Granted, I'm thankful that this set was one of the lowpoints of my weekend, mainly because it was just disappointing instead of soul-crushingly bad. It could have been worse.
Upcoming Shows:
- Caribou @ The Fonda in Los Angeles on Saturday, February 28th
- The Replacements @ The Palladium in Los Angeles on Wednesday, April 15th
- Belle & Sebastian + Mac Demarco @ The Fox Theater in Pomona, CA on Thursday, April 16th
6x Coachella Attendee (2007 - 2011, 2014a)
It was weird that they finished 10 minutes early and didn't play "I Will Dare", but this gave me a little extra time to run over to Bryan Ferry right before he started playing "Love is the Drug". I wish Paul would have taken "Androgynous" a little more seriously, the forgotten lyrics and chuckles throughout the song really ruined the mood. Overall I really loved this set, even the songs I wasn't familiar with. I think they sounded better than I expected them to.
This ain't no middle of the mall shit.
Paul forgetting the lyrics because he's too drunk (or, perhaps, Paul appearing to forget the lyrics because he appears to be drunk) is part of the Replacements' schtick. If they'd come out polished and professional and played all the hits it wouldn't have felt like a Mats set.
"Alex Chilton" was the single best song played by anyone all weekend.
I think I enjoyed this set even more than Riotfest. So great.
Let me get this straight: some people do NOT want to hear the Twin/Tone stuff? Seriously?
Yeah that's the way I've been rationalizing the set list. It's just the Replacements being the Replacements. Probably a good thing considering I lost my voice singing along to Can't Hardly Wait and Bastards of Young. Probably the most jumping I did all weekend next to Arcade Fire.
"Mr. Toad's Wild Aidz."

Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips is a target for Fulham.The People report that Wright-Phillips, 29, is determined to prove he is good enough to be a first-team regular next term but may have to consider his options if City add even more attackers to the payroll in the close season.
Mark Hughes wanted him on loan in January and is weighing up a £4m bid when the transfer window reopens.
However, the Cottagers will not be willing to pay Wright-Phillips more than £40k a week.

Impact Wrestling makes its return after one of the best PPV's in a long time and we get treated to not just one but two championship matches.
Bobby Roode vs. Mr. Anderson for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. Austin Aries vs. Chris Sabin vs. Zema Ion for the X-Division Championship in an Ultimate X Match. And the return of the Bound For Glory Series in the form of a big gauntlet match, what more could you want?
This week there was very little wrong with the show, and while some will disagree, I am not just tooting the TNA horn, it was this good.
At the end of the show, TNA succeeded in doing one thing, making me believe that missing next week wasn't even an option. And isn't that the point?

barn (b)
A barn is a unit of cross section used in particle physics; it is used to indicate the probability of a reaction between nuclear particles and atomic nuclei or other nuclear particles. One barn is equal to 10-28 m2 (10-24 cm2 ).
Many interesting cross sections are measured in pb (picobarns), which are equal to 10-12 barns. The physical cross sectional area of the nucleus of an atom is approximately 1 barn but depending on the reaction involved the actual reaction cross sectional area can vary over many decades of barns in size and are very dependent on particle energy.

Recap: Italian wine tasting @ Prime
- Written by Anil
Only open for a few months now, Prime Restaurant held their first wine-tasting event as a fully-functioning bar, restaurant and lounge on Wed. Oct. 20th.
The crux of the event was Ms. Giulia Lazzarini from Donnafugata winery of Sicily presenting six kinds of wines plus an assortment of finger foods.
HN was lucky to find a bunch of wine experts on hand, to discuss the different flavors, food pairings, and methods of preparation. From left to right: Sherry Jiang, JT (owner of My Place wine bar), Ms. Lazzarini, and French wine importer Jean-Marie.
The event was mentioned in Braniac's Magical Mystery weekend article. In that article, Edwin Kats was mentioned as Executive Chef and Food & Beverage manager.
In actuality, Edwin has been promoted to the Food and Beverage Director. It's a rare shift in careers, and Edwin is pumped.
Here's a shot of Edwin and friends (Edwin's the one in the blue tie). Congratulations on the promotion buddy!:
HN was also very interested to check out the stage area. It's a small space in the cosy cigar bar. As part of the 2010 Nanjing International Jazz Festival, American troupe Cangelosi Cards will be playing here on Saturday night.
Entry is free, the band sounds kewl, and it looks like a lock to be a great night out.
An added attraction in this space is the spectacular 78th floor view. Brent and Jean-Marie were mesmerized:
A wider angle shot gives an idea of the massive windows that encircle the entire venue:
Final shot: at the foot of each panel of glass is a humorously-worded warning:
Those interested in seeing this amazing space for yourself, consider checking out the jazz show on Saturday night.
See you there!

I decided to continue the project I submitted for the Discovery Education and 3M Young Scientist Challenge. Although I had already developed a working model of my project, it only told me that I reached my initial goals. I could see that there were a variety of ways my model could be improved. I feel that if I can continue to improve my model, it could be more than a science project and one day be a viable commercial product. I really liked this project from the beginning as it met my goal of making a difference in the energy crisis, introduced me to a wide range of new scientific ideas, presented a variety of interesting problems for me to try to solve and got me interested in the business aspects as well.
I have been doing lots of research and have performed some testing to make steps towards creating a new prototype. My mentor, Dr. Moran, has been extremely helpful. We have had great conversations about problem solving techniques and she has also educated me further about the business aspects of creating a product.
I believe that the 3M scientists are naturally curious and creative people who have the skills and determination to turn their ideas into reality. I also think that it is very satisfying for them to see their finished products, some of which may change the world.
