Microsoft Corp. is reportedly working on a new low-cost platform that will use microprocessors based on ARM architecture and which will be aimed at casual gamers. The device will compete primarily against set-top-box products like Apple TV and will likely be a multimedia, rather than a purely gaming device.
"My understanding is that we'll see a Xbox device in late 2013 which does Arcade-style games and all the current and future media apps with Kinect (with near-mode). It will be an ARM-based platform price-competitive with the Apple TV (if you own a Kinect already)," said MSnerd, a well-known blogger with knowledge of Microsoft's plans.
Low-cost ARM-based device for gaming and media services will likely be Microsoft's approach to compete against Apple TV, which shares software and hardware platforms with iOS-based devices like iPhone or iPad. Since modern ARM-powered system-on-chips can be very powerful, the set-top-box could potentially handle high-definition games, including those designed for Windows Phone or Windows 8.
"At some point after that, we will see a Xbox Next, a true successor to the 360. Details about it are very hazy, except that, like the 360, it will do games for core-audiences and the same media apps as the other device, also with Kinect," according to MSnerd.
As the Xbox console and Xbox set-top-box are unlikely to compete directly against each other their launch schedules may not be aligned at all. Moreover, in case the Xbox STB costs around $100 and is designed mostly for media services, Microsoft may launch it earlier than in late 2013. In fact, it makes a lot of sense for the software giant to release its STB sometimes around the Windows 8 launch.
It is presently unclear whether Microsoft plans to sell its STB under its own brand, or will let other companies to manufacture their versions of device, which guarantees wide availability, but creates fragmentation of user experience.
Microsoft did not comment on the news-story.

Topic: Model Setup Questions
Hello Everyone,
I am a relatively new Rails programmer coming over from the PHP world and had a couple questions as I work on my first application.
First, suppose that I have a User model and a Calendar model. I want every Calendar to belongs_to a User, but not every User to necessarily have a Calendar. So, for that relationship, am I correct in just having a one-way belongs_to relationship with the user_id in the Calendar model and nothing in the User model? Or is there a better way to do it?
Second, when creating a User model with a Profile, is it best to have a single User model or a separate model with Profile fields (such as a bio and phone number)? When you see deployed apps, is the

The University Senate is moving forward with its review of the Presidential Advisory Committee on Sexual Assault.
The review, which was announced at the first plenary of the semester on Friday, will focus on the committee's membership, its nomination process, and decision-making process.
The senate's executive committee will work with the Commission on the Status of Women and the Student Affairs Committee to execute the review.
"The Student Affairs Committee is currently considering modifications to PACSA, including increasing student representation, which the president supports," Akshay Shah, SEAS '14 and the co-chair of the Student Affairs Committee, said. "We hope to introduce a resolution at the next plenary, codifying these changes."
Sharyn O'Halloran, the chair of the Senate's Executive Committee, said that it was important to include the University committee in the review process.
"We'll be also looking at the possibility of holding town hall meetings to get the sense of a community with regard to these issues, across not only undergraduate but also graduate populations," O'Halloran said.
"These are going to be the first initial steps that we will be taking, but we are also going to be looking and trying to find other ways in which we can actually address this issue," she added.
The Student Affairs Committee released a statement last week following the publication of a Blue and White article detailing students' experiences with the adjudication process, calling for the release of data, town halls, and increased transparency with regard to PACSA.
PACSA's membership and proceedings are not made publicly available. This semester, PACSA's meetings have stalled after its chair, Jeff Scott—who had also been executive vice president for Student and Administrative Services—departed at the beginning of the semester.
In response to the Student Affairs Committee statement, University President Lee Bollinger released a statement announcing that data would be released by the end of the semester and that he fully supports the University Senate's review of PACSA.
"Such a review could usefully encompass the charge of PACSA, the composition of its membership (particularly with respect to expanding student participation), the nominating process employed to name PACSA members, and proposals for greater transparency consistent with PACSA's mandate and the confidentiality of student records," Bollinger, who was unable to attend Friday's plenary, said in the statement.
Shah said on Friday that the Student Affairs Committee was "encouraged by the administration's significant first steps."
"We look forward to collaborating with administrators to restore confidence in the adjudication process," Shah said.
Also at Friday's plenary, Student Affairs Committee Co-Chair Matt Chou, CC '14, said that the committee had presented the results of the Quality of Life survey to the board of trustees in December and plans to release a full report by the end of the month.
The Senate also unanimously passed two resolutions to establish a Master of Science in Environmental Health Sciences program at the Mailman School of Public Health and an M.D./Master of Biomedical Science dual degree program at the College of Physicians and Surgeons.

My Italian colleague thinks igloo shape brickwork involves too much sand and fire clay between firebricks, and apparently this is dangerous in ovens because the dome starts to collapse with age.
alike the old Pompeii house ovens you can see ruined on photographs
Hey, you are talking about an oven 2000 years old and that has withstood a vulcano eruption and several earthquackes. If you can build something that strong, I will stop talking about pizza.The Pompei ovens in the pictures are actually 2 different ones. One is till standing fine, the second had a minor domage on the top. You also need to think that the mortar used at the time didi not include any cement but was only made by sand, chalk and and white lime

President Obama and Jay Leno are linked in politico-cultural history: Obama is the first president to appear on The Tonight Show while in office.
As Leno prepares to retire from the program in favor of Jimmy Fallon, the White House says Obama will miss the two-decade-long host.
"He (Obama) is a fan," said White House spokesman Jay Carney. "This is the end of an era."
Carney also said of Leno: "The president wishes him well; we all do."

Telemarketer flooded phones at Davie County emergency room, Morganton business
Raleigh: A satellite television company that tied up a North Carolina hospital's phone lines with prerecorded telemarketing pitches has been ordered by a federal court to pay $676,000, Attorney General Roy Cooper said today.
"Telemarketing calls are unwelcome and annoying, and in this case, even dangerous," said Cooper. "We put a stop to the calls, and now this telemarketer has been ordered to pay for disrupting a North Carolina hospital, a local business, and consumers' peace and quiet."
US District Court Judge N. Carlton Tilley, Jr. agreed this week with Cooper's request for the judgment and a permanent injunction to bar TNT DBS Marketing Inc. of Arlington, Texas from making illegal telemarketing calls to North Carolina consumers.
TNT has been ordered to pay $275,000 in damages to Davie County Hospital in Mocksville for 400 calls it made to the hospital during two days in early 2004 and to Continental Teves for tying up all 150 phone lines at the Morganton auto parts manufacturer during two days in December 2003. The court also ordered TNT to pay $401,500 for illegal prerecorded telemarketing calls it made to more than 80 North Carolinians, funds designated by law to go to the public schools.
Cooper brought the case against TNT in 2004 after more than 40 consumers complained about TNT's telemarketing calls. According to complaints from the hospital, hundreds of prerecorded calls from TNT flooded Davie County Hospital, tying up telephone lines to the Emergency Room as well as to patients' rooms.
Cooper argued that the company violated federal and state Do Not Call laws by making illegal telemarketing calls using prerecorded messages. TNT did not use a live operator to ask recipients if they wanted to hear its sales pitch offering satellite installation for $29.00, nor did the company identify itself at the beginning of the message as they are supposed to. North Carolina law bans commercial prerecorded calls, unless the call is first introduced by a live person who asks you if you're willing to listen to the recorded message.
Consumers who sign up for the Do Not Call Registry can cut down on all commercial telemarketing calls. Cooper is asking legislators to change the law so that prerecorded political calls are covered by the Registry as well.
"People who've made it clear that they don't want to get telemarketing calls should be free from these interruptions," said Cooper.
More than four million North Carolina numbers have been placed on the list since it began last year. To cut down on telemarketing calls, consumers can sign up for the Do Not Call Registry by visiting www.DoNotCall.gov or by calling 1-888-382-1222 from the number they wish to register. Consumers who have signed up can report telemarketers who call them to Cooper's office by calling 1-877-5-NO-SCAM toll-free within the state or by going to the website.

Jobless Claims in U.S. Jumped Last Week After Sandy
More Americans than forecast submitted claims for unemployment insurance and factory production declined in the northeastern U.S. after superstorm Sandy struck the region.
Applications for jobless benefits surged by 78,000 to 439,000 in the week ended Nov. 10, the most since April 2011, the Labor Department said today in Washington. Indexes of manufacturing in the New York and Philadelphia areas showed contractions this month.
The reports add to evidence of the economic toll taken by Sandy, which killed more than 100 people in the U.S., disrupted rail and subway service, left more than 8 million homes and businesses without power for days and caused insured losses estimated at $20 billion. Many of those who lost their jobs were unable to immediately file claims because of the disruption caused by the storm, swelling the numbers last week.
"People were thrown out of work because of the storm, which is exactly what happened after Katrina," which struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, said Jeffrey Herzog, a senior economist at Oxford Economics Ltd. in New York, who projected claims would climb to 410,000. "The infrastructure was hit in such a way that it will damage transportation and port links, which will take a long time to come back online."
Stocks declined as U.S. lawmakers prepared for budget talks. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dropped 0.2 percent to 1,353.33 at the close in New York.
Europe Recession
In Europe, the euro-area economy succumbed to a recession for the second time in four years as governments imposed tougher budget cuts and leaders struggled to contain the debt crisis that broke out in October 2009.
Gross domestic product in the 17-nation bloc slipped 0.1 percent in the third quarter after a 0.2 percent decline in the previous three months, the European Union's statistics office in Luxembourg said today.
Another report today from the U.S. Labor Department showed the consumer price index rose 0.1 percent in October, the smallest gain in three months. The so-called core measure, which excludes more volatile food and energy costs, increased 0.2 percent.
Jobless claims were projected to rise to 375,000 from the prior week, according to the median estimate of 49 economists surveyed by Bloomberg. Estimates ranged from 340,000 to 475,000.
Revised Up
The prior week's reading was revised up to 361,000 from an originally reported 355,000. A less-volatile measure of claims, the four-week moving average, rose to 383,750 from 372,000, today's report showed.
Sandy struck the Northeast region, including New York and New Jersey, as it came ashore Oct. 29, and those who lost their jobs because the storm shuttered businesses may keep filing claims in coming weeks. Today's report showed a loss of electricity prevented New York offices from taking claims two weeks ago.
"You have a double whammy this week, where people were filing claims they were unable to previously and individuals unable to work for the storm were filing additional claims," said Ryan Wang, an economist at HSBC Securities USA Inc. in New York.
The extent of the damage means it may take weeks for the underlying trend in firings to again become clear. Before the storm, the labor market was gaining momentum even as year-end domestic fiscal policy uncertainties raised concern among businesses.
Additional Challenge
Sandy posed an additional challenge to manufacturers already affected by the recession in Europe, which has limited export orders, and concerns about the so-called fiscal cliff of $607 billion of spending cuts and tax increases set to take effect in January unless Congress acts.
"Capital expenditures look to be slowing in earnest," said Jacob Oubina, senior U.S. economist at RBC Capital Markets LLC in New York. "In addition to the fiscal cliff and uncertainty, we've had a synchronous slowing in global manufacturing that's affecting us here at home."
The Federal Reserve Bank of New York's general economic index was minus 5.2 this month after minus 6.2 in October. Readings of less than zero signal contraction in New York, northern New Jersey and southern Connecticut.
Philadelphia Index
The Philadelphia Fed's economic index, which covers eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey and Delaware, decreased to minus 10.7 in November from 5.7 a month earlier. Economists forecast the gauge would decline to 2, according to the median projection in a Bloomberg survey.
Trucks that deliver fuel to retail stations in New Jersey are facing waits more than twice as long as normal as some regional loading terminals remain offline.
Hess Corp. (HES) resumed limited marine operations at its Bayonne terminal in New Jersey Nov. 12, the company said in a statement. Rack operations, or truck loadings, remain suspended, as the site works to return to normal operations.
The storm has also taken a toll on shopping malls and auto showrooms. Retail sales in the U.S. fell 0.3 percent in October after a 1.3 percent increase in September, a Commerce Department report showed yesterday.
Food Services
Philadelphia-based food service company Aramark Corp. was also affected, L. Frederick Sutherland, executive vice president and chief financial officer, said on a Nov. 14 earnings call. "Some of those operations are still not open or still not fully operational," he said, citing damage at a Long Island depot, disruptions at a Newark plant and power outages at sites in Cherry Hill, New Jersey and Reading, Pennsylvania.
The storm probably caused around $40 billion in damage and will subtract 0.2 percentage point from economic growth in the fourth quarter, which will be made up in the first quarter of 2013, said Herzog at Oxford Economics.
"Some people will be out of work for a short period of time, but it's not going to alter our view on longer-term economic growth," he said.
Sandy will cut 0.15 percentage point from growth in the fourth quarter of this year, according to the median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of economists conducted Oct. 30-31. In the first quarter of next year, it will add 0.1 point to growth as damaged property is rebuilt. The economy expanded at a 2 percent annual pace in the third quarter.
The storm may bolster homebuilders and other housing repair companies. Sandy's damage could spur a sales boost similar to the one provided by Hurricane Irene, which added about $360 million in sales last year, executives at Home Depot Inc. (HD) said on a Nov. 13 earnings call.
"The property damage, as we understand it, related to Irene was about $16 billion; the property damage for Sandy is about $20 billion, so it would suggest possibly higher sales, but it's impossible for us to know right now," said Carol Tome, the Atlanta-based company's chief financial officer.

A report from News.com quoting Marty Seyer, vice president and general manager of AMD's microprocessor business unit claims that Microsoft will release its Windows operating system that will be able to take advantage of AMD's 64-bit processors Opteron and Athlon 64 in late 2003 or early 2004.
The beta version of the Windows for AMD64 operating system will become available in late Q3, according to AMD, a bit later than originally estimated, though, it should not generally postpone the release of the final version, according to observers. The final version is expected to come in Q4 2003 or Q1 2004.
A representative from Redmond, Washington-based software giant confirmed that the company will offer desktop and server versions of the 64-bit Windows for the AMD chips, but declined to comment on any exact timetable.
Earlier this year we reported that there is a lot of various software for x86-64 processors to come, but probably a special version of Windows for 64-bit AMD chips is the most important one. As a result, we should probably expect the rise in sales of AMD Athlon 64 processor for desktop computers after the release of Windows for AMD64.

One, a priest and physician, was beaten and beheaded on the Flaminan Way at Rome, Italy, Feb 14, AD 269, during the reign of Emperor Claudius II. Another Valentine, the bishop of Terni, is said to have been beheaded, also on the Flaminian Way at Rome, Feb 14 (possibly in a later year). Both history and legend are vague and contradictory about details of the Valentines, and some say that Feb 14 was selected for the celebration of Christian martyrs as a diversion from the ancient pagan observance of Lupercalia. An old legend has it that birds choose their mates on Valentine's Day. Now it is one of the most widely observed unofficial holidays. It is an occasion for the exchange of gifts (usually books, flowers, or sweets) and greeting cards with affectionate or humorous messages.

Budget won't close North Country prisons
No North Country prisons will be closed as a result of ongoing negotiations over the state's 2013-14 budget.
Meanwhile, state Sen. Betty Little, R-Queensbury, expects a budget deal to be voted upon soon, possibly as early as this weekend.
Little told the Enterprise Wednesday that the Chateaugay Correctional Facility in Franklin County was briefly targeted for closure during budget talks this week, but said that's no longer being considered.
"Chateaugay was taken off the table," Little said.
When Gov. Andrew Cuomo introduced his budget earlier this year, he called for two downstate prisons to be closed: Bayview, a medium-security prison in Manhattan, and Beacon, a minimum-security prison in Dutchess County. Senate Democrats countered by proposing the state close the Chateaugay prison instead.
Little noted that prison closures are generally proposed by the governor or by state Department of Corrections and Community Supervision officials – not by lawmakers.
Little said she is relieved that another North Country prison isn't being targeted. In recent years, the state has closed prisons in Lyon Mountain and Gabriels. Prisons are major employers in northern New York and in other rural areas.
Cuomo has called for 60-day notice before a prison is closed. Little said she'd like to see that increased to a year.
Closed-door budget talks between Cuomo and legislative leaders continued this week. Little said lawmakers could be called to the floor to vote on the budget Friday or Saturday.
Little said she hopes the final budget will restore aid for North Country school districts.
"A lot of my schools lost high tax aid," she said. "A couple of them gained it, but of the 48 schools I represent, 29 had high tax aid and some of them had it reduced by 50 and 70 percent. We're hoping to restore that.
"We also have a lot of schools that we're really working to try to get additional money for."
Little said districts like Tupper Lake are still coping with the Gap Elimination Adjustment, implemented by former Gov. David Paterson. The GEA has cost the Tupper Lake school district $5.4 million in the last four years, according to Superintendent Seth McGowan.
"The way the gap is being restored, every year they get a little bit more, but some schools are getting a higher percentage more than others," Little said.
Tax rebates for middle-class families will likely be included in the final budget deal, Little said. The amount of those rebate checks would be $350 for families with at least one child who make between $40,000 and $300,000 per year.
"That's a pretty well-off middle class in our area for sure," Little said.
Modifications to the Secure Ammunitions and Firearms Enforcement Act could happen, too, but they aren't part of budget negotiations, Little said. Currently, lawmakers are wrangling with Cuomo to get rid of a stipulation within the gun law that would ban the sale of 10-bullet ammunition magazines, reducing the maximum capacity to seven bullets.
"I'd like to be able to start over and repeal most of it, but we certainly don't have the votes to do that," Little said.
Little said she thinks pressure from law-abiding gun owners and counties has caused Cuomo to revisit parts of the law.

New Year's Eve Optimism
New Year's Eve gives us occasion to look back and reflect on the last 364 days, and then look forward with optimism and ambition. Even in the more difficult years, such as this one has been for many young professionals, the hope and belief that things will get better if we work hard and focus on our goals generally remains strong for the 48 hours straddling the calendar change, making it one of my favorite times to celebrate.
A favorite exercise of mine is to think back to a few of my best calendar years: the accomplishments, unique experiences, and intimate relationships that made up my life during those periods. If you're having trouble being optimistic, think of those times and realize that situations can change very quickly. Half of the challenge of getting out of a rut is staying positive and having faith that good things are on their way.
As for our fair city, I think 2011 was good, but 2012 certainly has the potential blow it out of the water. There are a slew of development projects in the works, more employers moving back to the City of Rochester every month, and at least for now we know who our mayor is (remember last year when that wasn't the case…?).
And don't forget, Rochester Young Professionals is kicking off the new year in a serious way with our Discount Card Launch Party on January 12th at the Riverside Radisson Hotel.

Topic: visaul_effect on dynamic (AJAX-created) element
What's the cleanest way to apply a visual_effect to an element as it's created? For example, assume I have the standard AJAX demo -- an unordered list where list elements are created and appended to the list items:
form_remote_tag( :url => { :action => 'create' },
:update => 'my_list',
:position => 'bottom',
:success => ...
In :success I could apply e.g. a visual_effect(:highlight, my_list), but I can't find any solid examples of a way to apply the effect to the new element only (ul.my_list li) as opposed to the whole of ul.my_list. Any thoughts?

Published April 3, 2006
INDIANAPOLIS - The Florida coaching staff didn't need to watch the television very long to figure out what UCLA's defense is like.
"They guard like Georgia with Arkansas' players," assistant coach Larry Shyatt said. "They really get after it."
Translation: stifling defense with talented athletes.
When Florida and UCLA, both 32-6, play tonight at the RCA Dome for the NCAA men's national basketball championship, it isn't expected to be a high-scoring affair that draws millions to their television sets. Instead, it most likely will be the quintessential example of that old coaches saying: "Defense wins championships."
"It's going to be a compelling matchup," ESPN analyst and former UCLA coach Steve Lavin said. "Both teams are solid defensively. Florida holds opponents to 40 (percent shooting) or less. UCLA plays kind of a stifling, stingy kind of defense.
"I think it's the team that's able to get easy baskets. With all the focus on defense, which no question is going to be a key element, it also is going to be who scores enough points. Vikings and Packers at Lambeau, frozen tundra."
The Gators and Bruins are on pace for the best scoring defense by a champion in six NCAA Tournament games. UCLA has allowed 52.8 points per game, the Gators 56.6. UCLA has held three of its five opponents to 45 points or fewer. Florida has not allowed more than 62.
"Right now, we're proving the notion that sharing the ball and playing good defense does win games, especially tournament games," UCLA freshman forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute said.
UCLA enters on a 12-game win streak, the Gators a 10-gamer.
But they've done it with different styles. The Bruins have two starters who average in double figures, guards Jordan Farmar (13.4 points) and Arron Affalo (16.5). Florida brings five starters averaging in double figures and an offense that works inside the paint or shooting from the perimeter.
"This is fitting that in the national championship game we'll probably be playing against the most complete team we've faced all year," Affalo said. "Florida has proved it can score inside and out, so we'll just have to do the best job we can to defend them."
UCLA coach Ben Howland has preached defense since he arrived three years ago. It requires being physical, and in some ways, the players said, intimidating.
"(Opponents) know, "Every shot I take I'm going to have to work for it,"' Farmar said.
The Bruins' defensive strategy has been highly effective. They find ways to push opponents away from the basket, forcing them to start running their offense far beyond the 3-point arc.
"One of the things that's impressive about UCLA is they're very disciplined," Florida coach Billy Donovan said. "They don't get out of their routine of what they do. ... We're moving towards that where we've been making it difficult for teams to score through the fact we've got length up in the front court and our back court players have done a pretty good job of containing the ball."
"We're going to have to execute really well and do whatever we've been doing all year. And that's be unselfish, take good shots because UCLA, their defense is crazy," forward Al Horford said. "They're just so good. The way they've been holding teams in the tournament, teams like Memphis, who's been scoring 90 a game, and shutting them down like that, it's just amazing. I really haven't seen anything like this."
UCLA will try to slow the tempo, hoping to keep Florida out of its fast-paced offense and stop the transition game. How well Florida adjusts will be key.
"You have to have a level of balance because you can't always win the way in which you want to play," Florida's Shyatt said. "So sometimes, you have to win the way in which your opponent wants to play. You can't just concede. And, thank goodness, we've shown an ability to do both this year."
Thank the SEC, the players said. Through 16 conference games and the SEC tournament, the Gators have seen a full range of defenses, which they believe will be their advantage tonight.
"We've seen every defense, every different type of person you can throw at us," senior forward Adrian Moss said.
The Gators have relied heavily on the play of their sophomore big men, 6-foot-8 Horford and 6-11 forward Joakim Noah, during the tournament. But in their national semifinal win over George Mason, the perimeter game made a difference. Junior guard Lee Humphrey had six 3-pointers, and he and sophomore forward Corey Brewer scored 19 points.
"I'm sure UCLA is very conscious of Lee, the way he has shot the basketball," Donovan said. "Again, they are a very good defensive team, and I don't think they are going to do anything, let's say, scheme-wise, to change their defensive principles and what they've done up to this point to shut him down. But there are ways to track him, eye him, to make sure he doesn't get off very many clean looks."
So look for this title to be won by ...
"Florida has a strength up front. UCLA has a strength in the backcourt," ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla said. "But both teams are underrated in the other positions. Florida's backcourt is underrated. UCLA's frontline is underrated.
"That makes, hopefully, for a great matchup."

Hi OmidSharing, intelligent, kind and enthusiastic. These are images i have of you when reading your posts.Salute' Omid David
Dear David, thank you! I noticed you are from Down Under . . . How is the pizza there, either Neapolitan or other styles? Have a lustrous day!
All the pies look great, but the last is especially beautiful. In your experience, are olives commonly placed on whole? For me it is a little too intense in any one given bite if they are whole - overwhelming the balance of the other ingredients. I generally cut them in half or into quarters.CL
I like em whole... but of course I could sit down and eat a jar of olives in one setting.... LOVE LOVE LOVE olives My wife and kids on the other hand do not... So it is rare that I can put them on pizzas. My wife is gone this weekend so I may have to pull the trigger on that one. That pie is dreamy Omid. Scot
Omid,I did a couple of quick videos for you yesterday while I was mixing up a full batch. The 1st video shows l'impasto finale almost completely mixed & the 2nd shows the quick riginero after the riposo.http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=hNG0S8mgtNkMatt
Omid,I am curious as to weather you are using the broiler element (top of the oven) or the standard heating element at the bottom? Since I am resigned to using a home-oven, I am trying to find new and exciting ways to get the heat higher. I recently bought a slab of 1.25" soapstone, and while the heat retention is tremendous, I am finding it cooks the bottom of the pizza very rapidly, but I am missing the proper charring of the top of the pizza. I've been utilizing a split-method, where I cook 60 seconds on the bottom, then move the pizza to another stone directly under the broiler. It provides the desired effect, but if I could simplify the process I would be ecstatic. I appreciate your feedback! Grazie,Salvatore

Omid,What type of stone is that? It looks to be thicker than the one you were using before (weren't you stacking two stones?).Grazie,Salvatore

Downstaters buy most licenses
MARQUETTE – Michigan Department of Natural Resources data on the 1,200 wolf hunting licenses sold for this fall's hunt showed the majority of licenses were sold to Michigan residents from the southeastern portion of the state, the majority of whom had a history of purchasing more than 20 hunting licenses during their lifetimes.
"The distribution of wolf license sales across the state shows that there is support for the hunting season statewide, not just in the Upper Peninsula," DNR spokeswoman Debbie Munson-Badini in Marquette said. "Successful management of the wolf conflicts this hunt is designed to target will be dependent on the success of these hunters in the field, so it is encouraging to see that the great majority of wolf license holders have significant prior hunting experience."
According to DNR statistics, 56 percent, or 672 in total, of those buying wolf-hunting licenses live in the southern Lower Peninsula. Oakland County had the most residents buying licenses with 65, which represented 5.4 percent of the total.
A quarter of the license sales came from residents of the Upper Peninsula (299), with five counties, including Marquette, among the state top 10.
Beyond Oakland, the other nine counties in the top 10 and the number of licenses sold included: Houghton (53), Gogebic (48), Genesee (41), Kent (36), Livingston (35), Ontonagon (33), Marquette (32), Mackinac (32) and Wayne (31).
Dickinson, Baraga and Iron counties each had 18 residents buying wolf hunting licenses, Luce County had 17, Delta 10, Keweenaw and Chippewa six each, Schoolcraft County four and Menominee County three. Alger County had the fewest with a single resident buying a license.
Badini said the sales statistics showed a greater-than-normal percentage of U.P. hunters buying licenses. She said for recent deer hunting license purchases, 73 percent were from the southern Lower Peninsula, 19 percent from the northern Lower Peninsula and 8 percent from the U.P.
The compiled DNR license data showed 88 percent (1,055) of those buying wolf-hunting licenses had purchased more than 20 hunting licenses in the past, 7 percent (83) had bought six to 20 licenses, 3 percent (30) had purchased one to five licenses, and 2 percent (25) were buying a license for the first time.
The cost of a wolf hunting license is $100 for residents and $500 for nonresidents. In order to purchase a license, a hunter is required to have either purchased a previous hunting license or taken a state-approved hunter safety education course.
The wolf hunt will take place from Nov. 15 through Dec. 31, unless quotas are met sooner from three wolf management units designated in the U.P. A total of 43 wolves may be killed. The bag limit for each hunter is one wolf. No traps, lights or dogs will be allowed.
The 1,200 licenses went on sale at noon Sept. 28. By Oct. 4, the DNR had confirmed all of the licenses had sold out. However, DNR officials said some sold licenses may be voided or canceled before the Oct. 31 sales deadline. Those licenses will be returned to the license buying pool and made available for purchase. Hunters wanting to buy a license were advised to periodically check the online license system for availability.
All but four of the 1,150 wolf hunting licenses sold were bought by Michigan residents. Those other four licenses were sold to two hunters in Texas, one from Wisconsin and another from Ohio. Fifty of the licenses were distributed free of charge to Michigan active duty military hunters (19) and disabled veterans (31).
Sixty-five percent of the licenses were sold by retail license agents (782); 31 percent (372) were bought online through the state's E-license system and the remaining 4 percent (46) were purchased at DNR offices.
DNR officials said Michigan's wolf population has grown significantly since 2000, with a current minimum population estimate of 658, down slightly from last winter. The DNR said the target harvest is not expected to impact the overall wolf population trajectory, based on published scientific research.
Counties, or portions of counties, where wolf hunting zones are located include Gogebic, Baraga, Houghton, Ontonagon, Luce and Mackinac. Management goals of the hunt in the three wolf units included reducing the number of nuisance wolf complaints, chronic livestock and dog depredations.
A DNR "Michigan Wolf Digest" explaining all the rules of the wolf hunt and other information is available at DNR offices or can be downloaded online at www.michigan.gov/dnr/0,1607,7-153-10371_14724–,00.html.

Nintendo admitted that footages it demonstrated to illustrate performance and high-quality of graphics during the unveiling of the next-generation Wii U game console were not rendered on the next-generation system. Instead, it was rendered either on Microsoft Xbox 360 or Sony PlayStation 3.
"Absolutely, [the footage was from PS3 and Xbox 360] because we are talking a year away from when the system is going to launch. [...] In terms of how good [the games] look is going to be driven by what developers do. The system is going to be 1080p, it is going to be high-definition," said Reggie Fils-Aime, the president Nintendo of America, in an interview with Game Trailers web-site.
During the announcement of Wii U, the company demonstrated a number of games, including blockbuster titles like Assasin's Creed, Darksiders, Metro Last Light, to show off the capabilities of the console. Partly, this was probably done in order to communicate to the fans of Nintendo that the premium cross-platform games will be available on Wii U. Unfortunately, it is hard to judge about graphics capabilities or performance of the next-generation Nintendo game machine based on what was shown.
The company also showcased a not visually impressive Wii Sports-like demo to show off capabilities of the new controller with 6.2" screen as well as an in-house Garden demo that was presumably rendered using the console's graphics hardware or a similar ATI Radeon HD graphics processing unit (GPU). The Garden demo resembles games based on Unreal Engine 3 and features such modern effects like HDR, motion-blur, depth-of-field, high-quality geometry and so on.
"We will take full advantage of that 1080p/high-definition. [...] You are going to see games that take full advantage of a system that has the latest technology and can push out some incredible graphics," added Mr. Aime.
Nintendo Wii U combines motion-sensing game play with the ability to support full HD graphics and generally performance demanding games that can run on consoles like Microsoft Xbox 360 or Sony PlayStation 3. The system itself is based on a custom IBM Power microprocessor as well as a modern ATI Radeon HD graphics chip with high-definition graphics and video support. But the main feature of the code-named Cafe game console is its unique controller with 6.2" touch-screen that also features an accelerometer and a gyroscope, a rumble feature, an inward-facing camera, a microphone and speakers that can be used to play both classic Gamecube/Wii games as well as specially designed titles that take advantage of the screen. Each Wii U console will be partnered with a new controller and can also use up to four additional Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus controllers. The system is also backward compatible and can play all Wii games and use all Wii accessories. Nintendo Wii U will cost more than $249.

How to Be an Effective Crew Member
Tough, but not too tough, love
Photo by Tom Sperduto
Twenty-Four Hours of Absolution—sounds like a catchy name for a new ultramarathon.
It's not. In the case of Devon Crosby-Helms and her support crew, it applies to her upcoming run in California's Western States 100 Endurance Run. When the race starts at 5 a.m., June 26, Crosby-Helms will have 24 hours in which she will not be held responsible by her support-crew members for crankiness, neediness or acts of selfishness. It's a rule she also employs when she crews for others—as she did for another top female ultrarunner Krissy Moehl at last year's Western States.
"By giving the runner 'absolution,' it takes out the interpersonal conflict or hurt feelings that could arise," says Crosby-Helms.
An ultrarunner and his or her crew face sleep deprivation, physical exhaustion, potentially inclement weather and other stresses inherent to competition. While such conditions can bring out the best in a person, they can also bring out the worst. In short, a thick skin is vital. But that is just one of the important attributes of a good ultramarathon crew member.
What a Crew Member Does
Most ultramarathons (primarily 100-milers) offer access to racer support crews at pre-determined points, usually aid stations, where they can tend to their runners' needs. A crew member is part nutritionist, part psychologist, part medic and part motivational speaker.
"My crew members swap out my water bottles, and give me my nutrition and any change of clothing or gear," says Crosby-Helms, who holds the course record for the
JFK 50 and is among the favorites at Western States. "They treat any contingencies such as blisters and stomach upset."
But those are just the physical needs. When an ultrarunner is 30, 50 or 85 miles into a race, he is vulnerable mentally and emotionally. A good crew recognizes and addresses those issues too.
Caleb Chatfield of the Kansas City Trail Nerds says his crew members "are responsible for helping me keep my head on my shoulders and giving me something to look forward to at aid stations."
The importance of a crew to an ultrarunner cannot be overstated. Veteran endurance athlete Lisa Smith-Batchen of Alta, Wyoming, who is midst of an effort to run 50 miles in all 50 states puts it succinctly, "Your crew is your life line."

Christian Wolff: Long PianoPosted by Jay Batzner in CD Review, Jay Batzner, New World, Piano, tags: CD Review, Jay Batzner, New World Records, Piano, Schultz, Wolff
Christian Wolff
Thomas Schultz, piano
New World Records
When faced with a work promoting a specific political or ideological slant it can be hard to find the line between art and propaganda. Christian Wolff's Long Piano (Peace March 11) definitely falls into the category of a politically-inspired work but the music itself remains austere and carefully detached from its surroundings. Composed in 2004-2005, this hour long solo piano work is built largely of sparse gestures and thin textures. The piece is constantly beginning anew and never fully coalesces in any one place for long. Each fragment has its own internal life and motivations. Thomas Schultz certainly had his work cut out for him in creating a coherent and linear performance of a work that is almost anything but. Schultz is displaying a type of virtuosity that goes beyond pounding volumes and rapid arpeggios.
Never still enough to be ambient yet not directed enough to contain a typical emotional through line, Long Piano seems set on an eternal simmer. It still manages to make you pay attention to it and simply hear its sound.
