So long, Pope Benedict! Great knowing ya!

Miss Philicia:
Citing advanced years and infirmity, Pope Benedict XVI, the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, stunned the Roman Catholic world on Monday by saying that he would resign on Feb. 28, less than eight years after he took office, the first pope to do so in six centuries.At least we all get to be amused with the smoke coming out of the chimney soon.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_TurksonThis Cardinal seems to be a mixed bag in regards to those who hope for a progressive Vatican. He wants the church involved in reforming global finance to help address wealth distribution. But seems too timid to modernise the Church about sex, contraception, disease prevention, etc. (Well, we could also hope that once he's in power, he could change his tune....) The Vatican and "abstinence" seem to be chiseled-in-stone BFFs as much as the GOP and "trickle down economics". And at the end of the day, does global capitalism need to listen to the advice of the Catholic Pope? Doubtful. But a Pope could reform his own Church's murderously antiquated doctrine....
I wonder what color(s) the smoke will be after the Conclave.

Delivering the same revolutionary performance as the original StructureScan - now in a Thru-Hull configuration - the Lowrance StructureScan Thru-Hull Transducer 99-003 is a separate add-on module that works exclusively with the Lowrance HDS system and plugs directly into your Ethernet port. With the ability to deliver three different views of the same underwater object, the StructureScan Thru-Hull Transducer provides left, right (SideScan), and DownScan imaging for the highest level of viewing detail ever achieved.
Delivering 480 ft (146 m) of side-to-side underwater coverage in super crisp detail, the unit's SideScan feature helps you cover more water in less time, showing targets, as well as, their imaging scan shadows – game fish and bait fish alike.
The DownScan feature, on the other hand, provides more well-defined scrutiny of objects directly beneath your boat, and adds an innovative, new dimension to the StructurScan unit. Submerged timber looks exactly like timber, and stumps, shipwrecks or whatever else is below the surface appears in unprecedented clarity and detail.
Lowrance StructureScan works separately or in tandem with existing HDS transducers and Broadband Sounders, while also delivering multiple split and full-screen options for optimal viewing. Extremely easy to use, network and install, the Lowrance StructureScan also features a unique TrackBack tool, which allows you to scroll back in sonar history to find locations and set waypoints. Delivering phenomenal, panoramic, underwater sonar-imaging in picture-perfect detail, the Lowrance StructureScan Thru-Hull Transducer 99-003 removes the guesswork, so you spend more productive time fishing.

'My husband and I came up to Whistler with our two boys (ages 6 and 2) for a much needed getaway and we were so happy with this condo. The location to the village combined with the fantastic free shuttle service were perfect. There's a bus stop right out front of the complex and the bus comes by every 10 mins or so. It's a very short ride down into the village and, in all honesty, could easily be walked but with little ones the bus option was preferable. The condo itself is ideal! It's an end unit so there are lots of windows and it's very quiet. The layout worked really well for the 4 of us and we found everything we needed to feel the comforts of home. The kitchen is well stocked with supplies, the movie selection was superb and we were able to light a fire and cozy up on the sofa for movie night. It's a definite 8 thumbs up from the 4 of us!'
'Thank you for allowing my family to stay in your beautiful suite. We had such an amazing time! The photos on the site do not reflect the coziness and comfort of your town home. My children cant wait to visit again..'
'We stayed at this condo in April of 2011. We immediately began planning to come back. Everything was thought of, well supplied. The condo is super convenient. YYou could ski / walk to the lifts but we have small children so the shuttle was perfect. The free Whistler Blackcome shuttle is just steps from your front door. The Owners are very thoughtful. The skiing is wonderful. Walk to the village. It is really a great place. Thanks so much for the wonderful time.'

We are an active family of 4 and have enjoyed Whistler/Blackcombe as a second home for over 10 years. Our children love the mountain, and Village life, and we are sure you will too. We respect our property and take very good care of it, and would ask that you respect our wish to do the same when you stay in our home. Thank you for your interest in our property. We wish you an enjoyable family experience and look forward to hosting you again in our home.
The Owner purchased this townhome in 2010
We recently upgraded our property to the Wintergreen Villas as we love to ski as a family and we wanted to be located in the Benchlands, which is one of Whistler's most desireable neighbourhoods. We are right at the base of Blackcomb Mountain, near Base II where you can ski-in/ski-out directly across the street to the Wizard Chair. This location is incredible. We are very proud to have a home in this location.
Our home is a family home, and it feels like home away from home, with our wood fireplace, and over 200 movies to choose from, which makes movie nights fantastic. The family experience in Whistler, BC is amazing. We never run out of things to do, including visiting Brandywine Falls, 10 minutes South of Whistler, and Nairn Falls, approximately 20 minutes North of Whistler, which offers a 30 minute hike to the Falls. We also visit Meadow Park Recreational Centre, which offers an amazing facility for the entire family, only a short 2 minute drive North of Whistler. The Chateau Whistler Golf Club is directly across the street, and the Lil'Wat Aboriginal Cultural Center is just a short walk away. The activities are never ending.
Thank you for allowing my family to stay in your beautiful suite. We had such an amazing time! The photos on the site do not reflect the coziness and comfort of your town home. My children cant wait to visit again..

From Berkeley County:
Let us at this time keep the families of Boston in our thoughts and prayers. Let's hope we will catch the culprits soon.
From Hedgesville:
Why is it that, with the shape the economy is in, Medicade customers are getting their perscriptions at no charge? Some of these are narcotics.
From Martinsburg:
Since Obama has tried to do away with all our guns and the Second Amendment, I guess with the bombings in Boston he will be doing away with our cellphones, clocks, batteries and whatever else he can seem to try to outlaw since he wants to control everything.
From Tomahawk:
I thoroughly enjoyed the article by Doug Hovatter in Sunday's paper regarding 4-H, 4-H camp and so forth. I am now 70 years old, but I remember quite well when I was 11 up until I was too old to attend Camp Frame 4-H Camp. What a fantastic and phenomenal time that I had. Every child should have that experience. I do thoroughly enjoy reading Doug Hovatter's coulmn. It is the best-written.
From Pikeside:
For heaven's sake people! Wake up! It's not Obama's fault. It's not George Bush's fault. It's our fault. We keep electing these tired old people that keep running for Congress three and four years ahead of time. So just look in the mirror if you want to see whose fault it is.
From Jefferson County:
In sight of what has happened at the Boston Marathon with the horrific ending to it, I think they really need to start a movement to ban pressure cookers and ball bearings as well as the firearms.
From Harpers Ferry:
Sean O'Leary has many fans and makes important points. His representative voice needs to be heard. It is surprising that some readers forget about the 1st Amendment, guaranteeing freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
From Martinsburg:
Our small woman's chorus is looking for new rehearsal space in Martinsburg on Monday or Tuesday nights from 7 to 10 p.m. Where we currently have rehearsals, our hours are being changed to 5 to 8 p.m. (many of our members are still at work at 5 o'clock) and the rent has been raised 500 percent. It is time to find new space. Please call 304-839-7957.

From Shepherdstown:
How many pro-gun editorials can one paper print? Apparently The Journal, like some politicians, has little regard for the views of 90 percent of Americans who think who favor common sense legislation being proposed by our own Senator Manchin.
From Martinsburg:
To Berkeley County caller: This administration has done nothing but lie to the American people. He says he appreciates the military – then takes benefits from them; I'll take care of the middle class – Medicare cuts and higher taxes. Benghazi: We'll get the ones who did this – six months later nothing. Bombings in Boston: They will pay for this. Sure. We've heard this all before. More lies.
From East Berkeley County:
Anyone legally carrying a concealed weapon including on city property had training and passed a background check. According to Senators Schumer, Manchin, Toomey, anyone with a CCW permit would be able to purchase a handgun without FBI background checks. Businesses would still have the right to prohibit CCW. There is safety in numbers – as long as you're not in a no gun zone.
From Shepherdstown:
To the caller from Martinsburg who said "No American Caucasian living today was even born during the period of slavery." True, but some of us were alive during segregation and Jim Crow. Some of us were riding around beating minorities for no reason. Some of us did spit on non-violent protesters and beat up freedom riders. It didn't end with slavery. For some, it continues today.

There is a certain effect that Town of North Hempstead Republican Chairman Frank Moroney said he expects Port Washington attorney Richard Stiek to soon have on the state's political landscape.
It is what Moroney described last Thursday as Stiek's "cleansing effect on politics" that led the town's GOP leader to select him as the Republican candidate to oppose incumbent state Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel (D-Great Neck) for her 16th Assembly District seat in November's general election.
"This is the kind of quality representative that North Hempstead has had over the last couple years," Moroney said of Stiek. "Knowing how dysfunctional the (state Assembly) can be, this is like opening up the windows after they've been shut for some time and clearing out the house. He's like a fresh fall day."
For Stiek, 38, it is his status as a political outsider, which he said could serve him well if elected to represent the 16th Assembly District. A U.S. Army veteran, Stiek and his wife, Nancy, reside in Port Washington.
"I've been ... rather disenfranchised with what I saw as continuing increases in my property tax bill, or my share of it in my co-op building, and just what I saw as fiscal irresponsibility at the local and state level," said Stiek, who has never run for political office.
Nearly two years ago, Moroney said Stiek reached out to Republican party leaders to become more involved with local politics.
"I started meeting with some of the local Republican leaders, became as helpful as I could be, not knowing much about the political landscape in Nassau County and in New York, generally," Stiek said. "I really just didn't pay much attention to it until I really started becoming personally effected by everything."
In May, Moroney said Stiek was officially tapped as the GOP choice to oppose Schimel for her 16th Assembly District seat, which consists of Great Neck, Manhasset, Port Washington, Herricks, Mineola and East Williston.
The decision came after Schimel's estranged husband, Mark, originally declared his intention to seek the Republican nomination to run for the 16th Assembly District in November's general election.
Mark Schimel, who was separated from his state Assemblywoman wife after 32 years of marriage last year, eventually withdrew his candidacy, citing pressure from the media.
Michelle Schimel, 54, has represented the 16th Assembly District since 2007. She originally elected to her seat after then state Assemblyman Tom DiNapoli was appointed state comptroller.
Upon accepting the bid to face Schimel in November's election, Stiek said he vowed to GOP officials that he would not make his opponent's political controversy part of his campaign.
"That has no place in government," Stiek said. "That has no place in politics or elections. Some people will disagree with me, but frankly I grew up where you respect people's privacy. If I were to go down that road I would be the biggest hypocrite I know. I don't believe in that. The issues are the issues."
It is that line of thinking, which Moroney said leads him to believe that Stiek is the right candidate to represent the 16th Assembly District.
"He keeps his word," Moroney said of Stiek. "He has, I think, the best shot at discussing the issues that effect the North Shore of North Hempstead. He is a bright attorney. He has a grasp, I think, of the basic issues, as far as taxes and the ability of people in this economy to pursue their entrepreneurial goals."
"I think as the district gets to know him," Moroney added, "they will think as much of him as I do. Hopefully, they will elect him."
Stiek graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 1996 with a degree in engineering.
After serving in the U.S. Army for nearly five years, Stiek earned a masters degree in clinical psychology from Texas A&M University at Corpus Christi. He later graduated from law school at Seton Hall University and is licensed to practice in New York and New Jersey.
Currently, Stiek said he is "not engaged with a specific law firm" and works as a special projects consultant.
In addition to his career, Stiek is a board member of the West Point Society of New York, the Long Island General MacArthur Memorial Fund and the Armed Forces Reserve Family Assistance Fund.
Although Stiek said his military service has played a large role in his life, it was not a major determining factor in his decision to run for office.
"That's a part of my life," Stiek said of his military service. "That's what I've done. It's what I do, but my decision to become involved in this race, and politics in general, was born almost exclusively out of my frustration with the direction that our state, our county and our country are kind of headed."
Stiek said one of his biggest disappointments with Schimel was her vote in opposition to the state's current 2-percent real estate property tax cap.
"There is a lot of posturing up in Albany that is, frankly, counterproductive," Stiek said. "You can look at the property-tax cap that was negotiated between the Democrats and Republicans and Gov. Cuomo. That's the first cooperative, properly governed event that I've seen in a while out of Albany."
Although Stiek said he was in favor of the 2-percent property tax cap, the legislation does not go far enough to cure some of the state's financial difficulties.
"I think that's a good starting point, rather than a fixed point," Stiek said of the tax cap. "I would like to see the property taxes more directly tied to the fluctuations in the values of homes rather than there being this artificial floor that they cannot break through, going down. We should be able to keep in line our expenses based on what our revenue is."
If elected, Stiek said he will also help to control rising state mandate costs that have been criticized by local mayors and trustees for making the calculation of their budget more problematic.
"Some of these mandates are actually pretty good," he said. "I agree with some of them, but the bottom line is you've got to be able to pay for them. You don't buy luxury items when you have no money."
Stiek said that, if elected, he would work to formulate a bill that would require any new state mandates to be completely funded before they could be passed by the state Assembly and Senate.
"If there is nobody in Albany to pay for it, or they force an increase in the tax, then that particular assemblyman, assemblywoman or senator will be held responsible in the next election," Stiek said. "It's about their individual responsibilities."
If elected, Stiek said he would also focus on reforming the pension system for state employees and increasing small business development in the 16th Assembly District.
Through his campaign, Stiek said he hopes to bring "more sensibility" to the financial dealings of state officials.
"We're running a negative financial circumstance right now in New York," Stiek said. "I think it's going to be the realization (for voters) that we've got to keep, frankly, a balanced check book in Albany and not force all the expenses down on the municipalities, the towns, the counties and the schools."
Stiek said his potential to "help transform the way the state operates" sets him apart from Schimel.
"I'm not a politician, particularly," Stiek said. "I'm just a guy who lives in Port Washington who's got a little tired of the status quo."
"There's a lot that I have to actually learn about the process of Albany, I'll be the first to admit it," he added, "but I have people around me who are smarter than I am. I've got people who I can reach out to as far as the process goes. I'll be a quick study."

I would do it like this:
A is a mxn matrix of rank m, now it is obvius that , why?
So A represents a linear map with rank .
B is a nxp matrix of rank n, it is equally obvius that .
So B represents a linear map with of rank n.
Now AB represents linear , or
So g has a domain of p dimensions, and the codomain has n dimensions.
f has domain of n dimensions, and the codomain has m dimensions.
So represents a map , where V is p dimensional and W is m dimensional. So AB has rank m.
This is what I would do, but there are probably nicer ways. Assuming ofcourse that this is correct.

After being officially fired from the Boston Red Sox on Thursday, Bobby Valentine took a leisurely bike ride through the city. He did not seem that upset, and the Red Sox shouldn't be either.
It is now time to move on to the next phase of rebuilding for a better 2013 season—hiring the new manager.
The new Red Sox manager needs to be one who can handle the pressure-cooker that is Boston. He also has to be someone who can get along with the players but is strict enough so they respond when he calls attention to an issue at hand.
Whoever the Red Sox decide to go with, it needs to be Ben Cherington's final decision. Larry Lucchino can be somewhat involved, but it's up to the GM to choose who will run the daily operations of this Red Sox team in 2013.
Here are the five best candidates based on the descriptions above:

Integrated effort to restore Citarum
Where does our capital city's water supply actually come from? About 80 percent of Jakarta's water comes from the Citarum River. The river's current condition is critical, urgently requiring special attention from many sectors.
There are 13 rivers criss-crossing Jakarta that mostly originate from three main rivers: the Citarum, Ciliwung and Cisadane. Despite its poor water quality, the Citarum has become the most important river due to its role as a supplier of Jakarta's water for drinking, cooking and daily sanitary activities.
Groundwater is another source, but pumping water from the ground has its difficulties because it can cause land subsidence.
The Citarum River is one of the largest rivers on Java, and is the largest and longest river in West Java.
It has a strategic function as the backbone of the water supply for the capital. Citarum's catchment area is 6,614 square kilometers, or 22 percent of the area of West Java.
The river originates from Wayang Mountain in the southern part of Bandung and travels north for about 350 kilometers until it reaches the Java Sea. It serves a population of 25 million (15 million in West Java and 10 million in Jakarta).
The total population living along the river is 15,303,758 (BPS, 2009) with half residing in urban areas.
The Citarum is the source of drinking water for Bandung, Cimahi, Cianjur, Purwakarta, Bekasi, Karawang and 80 percent of Jakarta. It is the most densely populated river basin in West Java.
Given its function, Citarum is categorized as a super priority river. It crosses the borders of Banten, Jakarta and West Java provinces. Its basin covers an area totaling 12,000 square kilometers and spans 13 administrative regions
The Citarum also plays an important role in supplying electricity. There are three hydroelectric
dams located on the upper section of the river's basin (PLTA Saguling, PLTA Cirata and PLTA Ir. H. Djuanda, or better known as PLTA Jatiluhur) producing a total of 1,400 megawatts of power. So, the river is a primary source of electricity for Java and Bali.
The river also supports the country's food production, as it irrigates 400,000 hectares of agricultural land that produces over 5 percent of the nation's rice stocks.
With almost 40 million people depending on it, the Citarum is the most important river basin in West Java. But today the river is in peril. Economic development and population growth have harmed the Citarum's health.
The deforestation of the water catchment areas is destroying the ecosystem and causing erosion, landslides and floods. Cities, communities and industries along the river's course treat it as a convenient sewer to dump untreated wastewater and domestic garbage.
Sadly, the Citarum is known as one of the world's dirtiest rivers. And, international and local media have put the river under the spotlight. The International Herald Tribune in its Dec. 5, 2008, edition wrote "Citarum, The World Dirtiest River" and The Sun in its Dec. 4, 2009, edition called Citarum "The Dirtiest River".
The national newspaper Kompas wrote "Citarum Sungai Limbah" (Citarum, a river full of waste) in
its Nov. 25, 2009, issue. The Jakarta Post on Nov. 12, 2009, wrote, "Key River Suffers Upstream, Downstream Pollution".
Lately, several international television broadcasts have also featured Citarum's conditions. "Asia Brief: Citarum Clean Up Pollutant," (Al Jazeera, Aug. 10, 2009), "CNN Ecosolution: Finding a cure for Indonesia's sick river (CNN, March 30, 2010) and "101 East — Indonesia's water woes" (Al Jazeera, Aug. 30, 2010) are among the sad stories.
The Directorate of Water Resources and Irrigation at the National Development Planning Agency, which is coordinating efforts to clean up the river, said the Citarum presented a myriad of problems (Asiaviews, February 2010).
The depletion of protected forest areas, the slashing of trees and land conversion have all led to erosion upstream and subsequent flooding.
Further down the river, waste from cattle produces 190 tons of sewage per day that can potentially contaminate the water.
Many of the factories in the area also blatantly pollute the river, causing fish deaths and people to suffer skin rashes.
Heavily populated areas along the riverbank contribute to the mounting garbage in the river, in which the same people also wash their clothes, bathe and defecate.
Then comes integrated water resources management (IWRM). It brings a new paradigm that integrates various sectors, environmental management and individuals.
This concept takes a bottom-up approach and supports multi-sector and multi-disciplinary resource management (WVLC, 2009).
Agenda 21 of the UN Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 recognized the importance of integrated water resources management in multiple sectors in national social and economic frameworks.
Indonesia adopted the concept under Law No. 7/2004 on water resources and enforced it to try and resolve the Citarum's problems.
In 2007, the government formed the Integrated Citarum Water Resources Management Investment Program (ICWRMIP), a roadmap approach for an incremental development program along Citarum's river basin.
However, the implementation of this roadmap is challenging. It relies on the full commitment of every sector so it is impossible to cope with downstream problems without addressing problems upstream. It is also unlikely to conduct a restoration program in one district without taking care of neighboring districts.
The preservation of Jakarta's Citarum River requires the participation of all stakeholders, including the local community and the private sector.
The writer is a consultant at the Citarum roadmap unit at the National Development Planning Agency. The views expressed are his own.

Anne Tyler's 20th novel is, like her previous 19, about a mildly dysfunctional Baltimore family of loyal yet infuriating people who love one another, but not always helpfully.
In her 11th novel Toni Morrison returns to the foundation of most of her fiction: childhood and its traumatic effects.
Paul Elie has lamented the absence of serious engagement with Christianity in contemporary fiction. He should read Stacia Brown.

This is a book about deep, protracted, unrelenting sadness, and it knows it.
J. M. Coetzee reportedly wanted readers to discover the title of The Childhood of Jesus after reading it. I thought of this often as I read it.

Donna Tartt's novel The Goldfinch connects to both head and heart, while Doris Kearns Goodwin's The Bully Pulpit tells of Theodore Roosevelt, an endlessly fascinating figure.
The uneasy genre of biblical fiction often includes what Flannery O'Connor called the "shoddy religious novel," filled with shallow characters and plot structures as clichéd and melodramatic as 1950s biblical films.

Tinkering with success can be a dangerous thing. A redesigned version of the Toyota Camry, America's best-selling car for the last nine years, is going on sale in the U.S.
Toyota recently lost market share and has suffered through bad PR due to recalls, in addition to dealing with the continuing aftereffects of the Japanese earthquake. Toyota executives are betting on the new Camry to jump-start the company's future.
The new Camry is so important to Toyota and the industry, I wanted to test one myself and get the opinion of wide-ranging experts.
When I got a test car, I first rolled up to a valet stand in Dearborn, Mich., where I met Ali Nehmi, a hotel valet. Nehmi drives a lot of cars and says the Camry is one of the nicer ones considering it's a Toyota and it's affordable.
"It's a lot [sharper] than the older model. It's a lot more aggressive," Nehmi says. "[It] stands a lot nicer. And it's a lot … sportier, a lot more edgier."
Nehmi joked that he'd consider buying one but would first have to move out of Dearborn, home to Ford's headquarters.
Toyota's Crown Jewel
The new Toyota Camry looks lower to the ground, is less rounded and has slightly more masculine styling. But the thing is, it still looks like a Toyota Camry.
Goeff Wardle, who teaches car design at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, Calif., says it's much harder designing a Camry than, say, a Ferrari, by a lot.
"You're looking at small improvements in many, many areas," Wardle says. "[You're] trying to get a little bit more headroom, a little bit more legroom, trying to make the vehicle get better fuel consumption and at the same time, be very, very aware of what your competitors are doing."
Wardle says Toyota is constantly tweaking and retweaking the Camry. It's the company's crown jewel, and Toyota cannot get it wrong, he says.
"They have to tread this really fine line between making the car more attractive, more desirable and more usable for their intended audience," Wardle says. "They've got to get it just right. So they don't take too many risks, but at the same time it can't be a mediocre vehicle either."
Chasing Evolving Tastes
If there's a person who knows how tough it's been for Toyota, it's Bob Carter. Carter has been with the company for 30 years and he now heads the Toyota brand in North America. He's been the one to steer the brand during some of the roughest times.
Carter says the company has to focus on the cars that consumers want to buy.
"Camry is the number one seller in the U.S.," Carter notes. "Camry is our number one volume vehicle. So it's critically important, but consumer tastes evolve over time. "
Baby boomers have always been kind of taken with the Camry, but that's not necessarily true of Generation Xers or millennials. Carter believes that the Camry will eventually lose its crown as America's top car, but says he's working to make sure the next one is a Toyota. In the next 34 months, the company will introduce or completely overhaul more than 20 vehicles.
'Not Interested In Making A Statement'
In the parking lot of an industry conference, I took Rebecca Lindland, an analyst with IHS Automotive, for her first viewing of a 2012 Camry. (And let me note here that when Toyota loaned me the new Camry for a test drive, they made sure it was in my favorite color — red — and that the radio was tuned to NPR).
"Keep in mind: the Camry buyer is an appliance buyer," Lindland said as she walked around the car. "God love 'em, but they're appliance buyers. They're not as interested in making a statement on the road."
Lindland says the conservative redesign of the Camry will be very reassuring to existing Toyota owners. The question is whether the Camry can lure new buyers to the brand because that, she says, is what Toyota needs.

It's the same as my previous post.
where the Y's are iid Bernoulli's with mean p.
So is a sample mean.
approaches a st normal as n goes to infinity.
I want to show that this function:
(P^ - p) / (root)((p(1-p))/n)
will approximate the standard normal distribution. Here P^ is an unbiased estimator for p, and p is the probability for an event. n is the number of trials.
The first thing I notice is that this formula looks very similiar to the formula used in the central limit theorem, so I am guessing that there is a way to manipulate this one into that one. My textbook doesn't explain or proove these things, so any help to make me understand this will be very appreciated!
All right, so in that case I see that P^ - p will equal X_ - µ.
But I can't get the (root)((p(1-p))/n) to quite equal (sigma)/(root)n. Let's see... the variance in a binomial distribution is np(1-p), so:
(root)((p(1-p))/n) =
(root)((np((1-p))/n^2) =
(root)((np((1-p))) / (root)n^2 =
(sigma) / n
I seem to be missing a root. Maybe it will still be standard normally distributed?

Beautifully Unique Silver Wedding Gown
Beautifully unique silver wedding gown, couture made, original design, this dress is like no other – so many people loved it and how different it was!!
Dupion silk with multiple layer white tulle underneath (with a little sparkle!), freshwater pearls with moonlight organza wrap the bodice to come up to a stunning featured front.
Detachable 2 tier train 1.5 meters sweeping out towards the ground (approx .5 on the ground itself), designed to be bustled at the back for the reception (a feature of the gown).
This is a truly beautiful gown, a dress you can really make your own. Designed to be a little ruffled, you can also make it look a little bigger or flatter depending on your style-this is a dress to have so much fun in! I wore a hoop (included) to give me a little volume – but not too much!
The dress has been professionally dry cleaned and boxed in an as-new condition. I also bought a long veil that I did not wear (wanted for photos but did not use), purchased for $180 and I'll also include this in.

The box office boom of 2009 continued last weekend with the top 12 films up 30% vs. a year ago. Led by another surprisingly large opening in the #1 Spot, the weekend was also helped by decent openings for other newcomers and good holds for hits form earlier this year. Year-to-date the box office is up 15.7%. All data is taken from BoxOfficeMojo.com.
Theater owner stocks have surged and studio owner stocks have benefitted from the unanticipated gain in ticket sales this year. Theater owners Regal Entertainment (NYSE:RGC), Cinemark Holdings (NYSE:CNK), and Carmike Cinemas (NASDAQ:CKEC), and cinema advertising leader National Cinemedia (NASDAQ:NCMI) are all up huge this year. Time Warner (NYSE:TWX), Viacom (NYSE:VIA), and News Corporation (NASDAQ:NWSA) are among the studios off to the best start this year. The gains have been consistent from week-to-week and profitability of the film slate for the studios appears to be surprisingly good. SNL Kagan has positive profit estimates on many of this year's films. The only film likely to have produced a meaningful loss is Watchmen but the losses are spread among three entities (TWX, VIA, and third party financing) and should not noticeably impact film studio profitability in 1H09.
Not to throw cold water on the fire, but comps toughen considerably this coming weekend. Last year May saw huge openings and decent legs for Iron Man and Indiana Jones 4 and a surprisingly large gross for Sex and the City. The only May film from a year ago to significantly underperform was The Chronicles of Narnia: Price Caspian.
This summer season kicks off next week with X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Ghosts of Girlfriends Past should also pull in big bucks. The next weekend brings Star Trek, a prequel that remakes the franchise and has very good early buzz. Angels and Demons comes the weekend of May 15th followed by Night at the Museum 2 and Terminator Salvation for Memorial Day weekend. The latest film from Disney/Pixar (NYSE:DIS), Up, arrives the last weekend of May. This is an impressive lineup which seems like it should at least hold its own against May 2008 but comps seem sure to slow which may spell an end to the upside for the theater stocks.
If you were fortunate to get long on these stocks earlier this year and can book gains of 50% or more, I'd definitely take at least a little off the table.Disclosure: Time Warner is widley held by clients of Northlake Capitla Management, LLC including Steve Birenberg's personal accounts.

Rolling with Ruby on Rails (8 tags)
The Ruby community is abuzz about Rails, a web application framework that makes database-backed apps dead simple. What's the fuss? Is it worth the hype? Curt Hibbs shows off Rails, building a simple application that even non-Rubyists can follow.
POJO Application Frameworks: Spring Vs. EJB 3.0 (5 tags)
Spring and EJB 3.0 are both reactions, in their own ways, to the complexity of EJB 2.1 and the complaints piled upon it. Both support developing with Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs) and give the framework responsibility for handling transactions, security, persistence, etc. But the two use substantially different approaches. In this article, Michael Yuan puts the two frameworks up against one another to see how they stack up.
Enterprise Streaming (2 tags)
The Java Message Service is a lynchpin of J2EE, but is in some ways more difficult and less flexible than more basic forms of communication, like the stream model of the java.io package. However, as Amir Shevat writes, the two are not mutually exclusive--you can write to JMS topics and queues with streams.
Catalyst (2 tags)
MVC frameworks are hot again in the web development world. Perl has a rich array of choices. One new contender is Catalyst, an elegant platform for database-backed applications. Developers Jesse Sheidlower and Sebastian Riedel explain the design goals and build an Ajax-powered wiki in 30 lines of code.

Prof Neeraj Kumar of the MBA department of Lucknow University (LU) is again in the news for the wrong reasons. Prof JK Sharma of the same department has accused him of plagiarism, saying that Kumar had lifted content from a book authored by a foreign writer way back in 1966 for his research work in 1990s.
NBRI director CS Nautiyal, who was heading the probe instituted by LU into the matter, submitted his detailed report recently. He, however, refused to divulge the findings, citing them as confidential.
LU officials also confirmed receipt of the inquiry report. "Vicechancellor G Pattanaik is out of station. The matter will be taken up when he returns, and if necessary, the probe report will be tabled in the executive council meeting," said an official of the V-C's office.
How did the matter surface? Prof JK Sharma, the then head of the MBA department had raised the 'plagiarism issue' during the selection committee meeting in April 2012. He even put a note of dissent, objecting to Kumar's appointment as professor in the department. Following the row, Kumar filed an RTI application in October 2012, seeking details of the minutes of the selection committee and executive council meeting that had ratified his appointment as professor. He also sought to know the charges against levelled against him.
According to Kumar, LU had yet not responded to his RTI query and that he was not aware about any probe pending against him. "Prof JK Sharma has always been biased against me. He was also instrumental in my termination from LU in 2002," he alleged.

The Germans in the Davenport area stuck close together. They continued to speak their own language and published a local German newspaper, " Der Demokrat." A German social organization, called Turnverein, was established. Similar to the Czech's Sokol, the Turner Society was also both an athletic and social gathering place.

T-Mobile Raises the Competition with iPhone 5
Image from: T-Mobile iPhone 5 / Ubergizmo
Now that T-Mobile has the iPhone, we believe that in the months to come, 191,000 competitive customers from AT&T, Sprint & Verizon will be more inclined to consider the carrier while visiting T-Mobile.com. Here's why:
On Friday, April 12th T-Mobile became the last of the Big-Four carriers to offer the iPhone 5. But given that T-Mobile is late to the iPhone game, are consumers actually more likely to consider T-Mobile as a result of this? We think so.
Compete has found that each month over half-a-million current AT&T, Verizon & Sprint customers visit T-Mobile's website, and when polled in a recent Compete survey, 1 in 3 competitive customers indicated that they are more likely to consider T-Mobile as a result of iPhone availability. Combining average traffic to T-Mobile.com over the past 12 months with these survey results, we believe that AT&T, Sprint & Verizon can expect that 191,000 of their current customers will visit T-Mobile's site with increased purchase propensity in the months to come.
T-Mobile is clearly targeting customers from direct competitors with its current marketing (see CNET reports). On Wednesday, April 10th T-Mobile gave competitive customers even more reason to switch by announcing discounts for people trading in their older iPhones, regardless of the carrier. T-Mobile also announced their new "Un-Carrier" plan, which provides no-contract pricing for smartphones with unlimited 4G data, and promises to save customers over $800/year compared to its competition. Competitors like AT&T and Virgin Mobile seem to be taking notice, with campaigns of their own that directly target T-Mobile.
After a difficult 2012, T-Mobile is off to a great start in 2013. The carrier recently reported Q1 growth in their branded customer base, along with a churn rate of just 1.9% – the best for T-Mobile in four years. Since these were Q1 results, prior to any big changes, T-Mobile appears to be building momentum to win new customers at the expense of their competitors. It's too early to say definitively whether iPhone availability and its "Un-Carrier" strategy will improve T-Mobile's fortunes, but at the very least these moves demand the attention of the other Big-Four carriers, and Compete will be monitoring competitive customer consideration and traffic to T-Mobile in the coming months.

Currently looking for his third straight title defense in the UFC lightweight division, pound-for-pound great Benson Henderson is set to welcome former Strikeforce champion Gilbert Melendez to the Octagon this Saturday night on FOX.
It's Henderson's second championship appearance on live television and arguably his toughest test to date. He'll have to be on top of his game to out-pace, out-hustle and out-duel the always formidable boxing of "El Nino."
For Melendez, this is his first shot to show the world that he belongs in the big show, fighting in the big fights. He'll finally get a shot to translate his elite skills from Strikeforce to the UFC.
Warranting an early setback from either Henderson or Melendez, this five-round battle should be epic. Here's how the initial head-to-toe breakdown pans out.

Sensing Technology Exhibition - NEWS
Sensing Technology 2011
The latest sensor and sensing system products, developments, technical innovations, seminars and workshops will ensure Sensing Technology 2011 is a must-visit exhibition. Developed in response to sector demand, Sensing Technology is the UK's ONLY dedicated national sensor industry event and will take place at the NEC, Birmingham, on 27-28 September 2011.
Last year's inaugural Sensing Technology show was hailed as a great success by both exhibitors and visitors alike. Many high quality, genuinely interested visitors attended, enabling the exhibitors to discuss new projects and innovations on their stands and in many cases take orders at the event. This year's exhibition, on 27-28 September, is shaping up to be even more successful thanks to a rise in visitor pre-registrations and an increased number of signed up exhibitors, meaning show space is already 75 per cent filled. Exhibitors booked to attend include Huba Control, Dewetron, PCB Piezotronics, Strainsense, Sensor Technology and STS Sensors.
Making the link
A wide variety of products will be on show, ranging from temperature sensors to monitoring solutions. Therefore a visit to Sensing Technology will enable you to make better informed purchasing decisions, link you with the manufacturers and suppliers who can solve your current technical, application, pricing and/or delivery problem, and provide an insight into future innovations, allowing you to effectively plan your own product and application developments.
With two dedicated seminar suites, you will be able to 'pick n mix' from a wealth of informative presentations. The Innovation Theatre will house some astounding innovations, many not yet commercially available but looking for business backing and application delivery. These innovations are a welcome addition to the tried-and-tested products already available.
A large 'networking lounge' will also be available for use by both visitors and exhibitors alike.
Quality and quantity
Mike Neal of Huba Control said: "We were extremely pleased with the two days of the inaugural show. The quality and quantity of visitors and enquiries was impressive. We're looking forward to a bigger and better show in 2011."
A national UK show dedicated to sensing technology is essential, as John Tyrrell, managing director of Ixthus Instrumentation, explained: "We are always looking for new ways to meet both new and existing customers, with a chance to tell them about our products and technologies. We have long believed that the UK needed a sensor specific show, focused on delivering a good level of quality prospects." He added: "At the current time of cutbacks and belt tightening, we have to try new paths that will deliver our messages to the market."
Peter Purdy, director of sales at RDP Electronics, said: "It's good to have a new exhibition with a tight focus on transducers and instrumentation. Sensor technology is an important area in its own right and it is important to be able to present measurement solutions to customers without the message being diluted by other technologies."
A spokesperson from Optris commented: "We think the UK market offers great potential for us and we have therefore been looking more closely into it. We have visited other exhibitions before, but believe that we will benefit from Sensing Technology as it is focusing on one of our core industries." They concluded: "The aim of the fair is to attract people to the products and offer them the best service."
Ian Ramage of Techni Measure said of last year's show: "The first day of the exhibition was the best first day we have had for many years at any exhibition. All of the three staff members on the stand were kept busy for most of the day!"
Tony Ingham of Sensor Technology explained: "The visitors were serious and of a good quality." He added: "I think it's very important to have a sensors show. Others have died out and it's something we have needed in the UK. This could turn into a very successful show."
Dedicated event
This year seven co-located shows are forming the largest manufacturing event of the year with over 500 exhibitors. The events include Sensing Technology 2011, Interplas 2011, MM Live UK 2011, MEMS Live UK 2011, NANO Live UK 2011, tct Live 2011, PPMA Show 2011.
