The broken bus adventure.Posted by Donna Freedman on Aug 4, 2012 | 9 comments
The Megabus died within spitting distance of the Lincoln Tunnel exit of the New Jersey Turnpike, close enough to see (and yearn after) the Empire State Building. We filed outside and stood or sat under a couple of trees, breathing in vehicle fumes mixed with air as humid as most oceans.
"It's my birthday," moaned one of the young women who was heading to the Big Apple with two friends to celebrate.
A skinny red-haired guy pulled out an equally skinny, almost triangular guitar and began strumming under his breath. One of the trio of young women noticed.
"Play us some music," she ordered. "Do you know 'Wobble Wobble'?"
Her friends snickered. The young man said, "No, I don't know that one." Instead, he launched into Bob Marley's "Is This Love." The birthday girl began to dance, one of her friends began filming with her smartphone, and other passengers stopped kvetching and began to listen.
From there the minstrel launched into a Spanish-language song (he'd just come back from three years hitchhiking around Latin America). I didn't catch much of it, but the word "borracho" (drunk) leapt out at me. Some of the passengers listened; others checked their smartphones or made "I'm gonna be late" calls.
The rest of us clapped when he finished. His next selection, "The Times They Are A-Changin'," seemed to turn off most listeners. Chatter started up again, more smartphones were consulted for the latest info (the Megabus wi-fi signal continued to work, even if the bus was kaput).
I felt sorry for the guy, the same way I feel sorry for guys singing at coffeehouses or at bars where people aren't there for the music. When he finished with the Dylan I clapped as loudly as I could and others joined in.
One middle-aged woman asked for the name of the song. She liked the lyric, "Don't criticize what you don't understand."
"Good one, right?" the singer agreed.
He played another song that I didn't recognize but which was also vaguely protest-y in nature. We applauded again and he said, "I could just be like the radio – you don't have to feel obligated to clap." Pausing for a moment to think, he then announced ,"I guess we should do Billy Joel."
"Only the Good Die Young," a song I hadn't heard for quite a while, was the next selection. Our human radio couldn't quite drown out the constant rumble of traffic, but it sure made the wait more bearable.
The air was still thick, the breeze still sporadic, and the "20 minutes" predicted for the replacement bus had stretched to more like 45 minutes by the time I posted this. (I'm writing from the breakdown zone.) But as travel hassles go, this one wasn't nearly as wearying as, say, getting bumped from standby flights for 12 hours straight. This time, there was music.

Funny enough I sat next to Adobe Evangelist Mike Downey last night. He just attended the Microsoft Mix conference. Did he have his tail between his legs? No, but he did admit to me that Microsoft is very committed to beating Adobe. He said Adobe has a few tricks of its own. Of course I captured part of our conversation, while sitting in the plane. Watch for more videos coming from SXSW later today (I'm supposed to meet up with Kyte in a little while where the CEO will show me its streaming video service). Qik just updated its Website, too. I love competition!
Is Steve Jobs lying about Flash not working on iPhone?
RUMOR ALERT — I have not substantiated this with anyone at either Adobe or Apple, so might turn out to be totally false:
Today I got a note from someone I know who works closely with Adobe and Apple. He saw my "Apple stabs Adobe in the Back" post and wanted to give me some details about what's going on between Adobe and Apple. He says that he's seen Flash running on an iPhone in a lab and that it's been running for quite a while and that it's not a technical issue that caused Steve Jobs to go public about not putting Adobe's Flash on the iPhone. He wrote "Geez – my Chumby with half the CPU horsepower can run Flash8/AS2."
So, what's the reason, according to my source?
Adobe is playing hardball with Apple over their PDF renderer. "Adobe wants Apple to use the Adobe PDF renderer." His thesis? Steve Jobs is playing hard to get to get Adobe to give up this demand.
Again, I have no idea if this is true or not. But tomorrow's SDK announcement with Apple is going to be very interesting to listen to.
Apple stabs Adobe in the back
On a week when Microsoft landed a big deal to put Silverlight on Nokia phones, Apple's CEO, Steve Jobs, tells Adobe that there won't be Flash on the iPhone.
This is a real bummer for Adobe and many users and developers, because most of the world's casual games are written for Flash. Just go over to game site Kongregate. Or, look at the world's video like that on YouTube (or any other video site like the Qik one that I use on my cell phone). Almost all of it is done in Flash. Now developers at those sites will need to find some other method to get those games and videos onto the iPhone.
This is a HUGE opening for Microsoft to take momentum and mind share away from Flash/Flex/AIR with its Silverlight set of technologies (which, based on my Twitter conversations, is winning developers over at a pretty good pace).
So, what is Steve thinking? He probably didn't want to hand control of developers to another company, but Apple might also have had concerns about battery life or it just might not have been able to make Flash work well on the iPhone. I can't believe that Apple couldn't find a way to make these things work, though. Flash isn't that heavyweight, it might have taken some committment on behalf of Apple to rewrite Flash to work and it sounds like Apple wants to go the way of SVG (it has long been rumored to be working on SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics, which is an open W3C standard) for the iPhone).
The inside story has yet to be told on this one. Not that Adobe is in a place to retaliate by only doing something like future versions of Photoshop or Illustrator on Windows or Linux (which would hurt Apple, but would hurt Adobe itself in its real war with Microsoft) but Adobe has got to be smarting from this decision this morning. After all it was Adobe that helped solidify the Macintosh's role in the world with its desktop publishing, fonts, and Postscript technologies.
Does this put a death blow onto the Flash/Flex/AIR teams? No, but it certainly does cripple their chances against Microsoft's Silverlight. I'll be at Microsoft's Mix conference later today to report on that angle.
UPDATE: Microsoft's keynote this morning at its sold-out Mix conference will be webcast live, Neowin is reporting. I'm hearing there's some news coming there, and also later in the afternoon.
The Offline Wars about to heat up?
Ryan Stewart (who works at Adobe) wonders if Microsoft is bringing an offline version of Silverlight out this week at Mix.
I'm hearing that Google is about to ship something major offline too.
So, for the next month we might hear "go offline" from all three camps (Adobe already shot their big guns in this war at last week's "Engage" event).
Microsoft should have the best offline technology, because it's king of applications on your desktop, but I think that answers the wrong question.
I'm trying to get everything I do online because I want freedom from my computer.
What do I mean about that?
Well, what if my computer gets stolen? I don't want any data on it.
What happens if Linux comes out with a Macintosh killer? Or if I decide to get a Windows computer again (I'm currently using a Dell Tablet PC because they sent me one to try out) I want to just load one thing: Firefox and go to work. Right now I'm switching between my Dell and my Mac without any problems at all because almost everything I do now is in the browser.
The thing about Microsoft is that they'll do some killer offline technology but it won't work on the Symbian cell phone or iPhones that I'm currently using. It won't work on Android, which is the Google cell phone OS that's soon to make an impact on the market. It won't work on Linux (which is getting a LOT better on the desktop, so I might try that again this year). And it won't work well on Firefox or Opera or other new, non-IE browsers. (Channel 9 doesn't work well with Silverlight on my new Dell when I use Firefox 3.0beta3, while Flash and AIR work just fine).
So, I guess the question is: can Microsoft keep the world as it is (IE, one that mostly runs on Windows and Office) or will the world follow bleeding-edge users like me into a more online world?
NASDAQ shows off Adobe AIR "market replay"
Who knew that NASDAQ developers could do cool stuff? (That's the stock market in the USA where lots of tech companies are listed). Check out their new app, shipping soon, that lets investors "replay" the market and make sure they are getting a fair price.
Live video from Adobe Engage event
I've been live streaming all morning from the Adobe Engage event. Here's a schedule. This is an event that Adobe's holding to launch new versions of Adobe AIR and Flex and to showcase some developers who've built stuff using those two technologies.
So, here's the video from this morning's stuff — if you have only time for one, watch the New York Times or the MFG.com videos. They were the most impressive to me.
Adobe Executives. Shantanu Narayen, CEO (Qik video, part I, part II, part III); Kevin Lynch, CTO (Qik video, part I, part II). Sometimes the phone gets kicked off, sorry.
New York Times showing off their cool Shifd, which shipped just last night (Qik video, part I, part II)
Carnet Williams, Jason Ricci showing off Sprout, cool tool for building Flash/Flex sites (Qik video)
Russ Fleming, Matthew Maher showing off a cool new package tracker from FedEx (Qik video, Part I, part II)
Mitch Free showing off the sexiest enterprise app I've seen, MFG.com (Qik video, part I, part II)
Chris Shipley and Kevin Lynch having a conversation (Chris runs the Demo conference) (Qik video).
More will be up after lunch at http://www.qik.com/scobleizer.
Spending the day at Adobe
Adobe just shipped its AIR technology and I'll be hanging out at the developer & press event to see what else Adobe has up its sleeves. If they don't ban video cameras, I'll try to get some Qik videos up on my Qik site.

Nokia officially launched its Lumia 920 in India, in a simultaneous launch in Delhi and Mumbai on Thursday.
The device will cost Rs 38,199 and will be available in stores across India from Friday. Its less powerful and cheaper counterpart the 820, will cost Rs 27,559. Tech experts were expecting the 920 to cost Rs 40,000 and the 820 to cost Rs 31,000.
Expect the prices to go down further however, especially if you plan to buy the devices online. Some sites are already selling the 920 for 36499 and the 820 for 26499.
For Nokia, the former cellphone king, The Lumia is their big comeback device. Note, the Lumia 920 is already sold-out in many stores in Europe and America.
In terms of features, Nokia has tried to offer a different look and feel to users. The device supports Wireless charging, is available in many colours (unlike Samsung and Apple devices which have made Black and White devices standard), and offers Windows Phone 8 Operating System. For all the key features, click here.
The reviews of the phone have been largely positive with tech critics saying that Nokia has given the OS a very good platform with the Lumia 920. The speed and multitasking improvements, connections to Xbox and SkyDrive, and Start Screen experience are all said to be much better.
But the question for Nokia and Microsoft will always be about apps. The quality of the phone won't be enough and convincing smartphone app developers will also be the key to the success of this device. (For detailed tech specs, click here)
Tech2 also managed to get their hands on the Nokia Lumia 920 and had done a first impressions post of the smartphone.
According to Tech2's Roydon Cerejo, the phone has huge potential. He writes:
"After spending about an hour with the handset, we must say that the Lumia 920 has huge potential when it launches in India next month. Nokia is still tight lipped about the pricing, but we'd guess it would be anything between Rs 35,000 to Rs 40,000. The device is built like a tank and the finish and choice of materials easily rivals the top dogs like the One X and even the iPhone 5.
"The hardware is all there and now all that's left is for the software platform to mature, and fast. Apps are always going to be the deciding factor between platforms, which could offset the sales of the 920 in the start. But even without apps, the Lumia 920 is a good phone and has some powerful imaging capabilities. There are plenty of features in the 920 that we still need to put to the test once we get our hands on a retail unit, but for now, we feel that the Lumia 920 has potential for greatness."

Where I stayed
Hostel Hana
The tour across the Salar de Uyuni was amazing but also very tiring riding around in a cramped land-rover. We took the shuttle from the Bolivian border at the end of Reserva Nacional de Fauna Andina Eduardo Avaroa to the Chilean border which was about 3,000 meters downhill and an hour away.
We were a little upset about having to purchase adaptors for the outlets, but they only turned out to be $1.60 for each. (Henning, you're off the hook) Last on the mission list before our nap was to find the bus "station" for tickets to Antofagasta. The long line of companies only went as far as Calama but we were guided to Turbus which was 2 1/2 blocks down. The office was closed for lunch so back to the hostel for a nap. At about 7pm we headed to the main street and came across the Export Restaurant for Chilean Cristal beer and grande glasses of red wine. Cristal turned out to be our least favorite Chilean beer. As we walked to find pizza for dinner, Raymie was very confused (eventually he'll make up his mind) on what to do so an hour later we finally found Casa Piedra for a tasty pizza. While we where there, a comedic commentary show
San Pedro day 2
It feels so good to sleep in late even at 8am. We didn't make it to the bus station the day before so we headed to the Turbus office. We decided to take the 11:45am bus to

Karyn Ridgeway's Story: In the Zone
By: Karyn Ridgeway, Physician
I remember it clearly: I was 10, sitting in the back of our car. It was a hot day and I had my face pressed against the window. I was watching my eight-year-old brother try out for Little League and I was jumping out of my skin. It was killing me that I couldn't try out. I could throw and catch pretty well ... and I was fast. Suddenly, my mom left the car and walked right up to one of the coaches. I watched as she talked, gesturing back at me. She ran back and opened the car door: "Okay, Karyn, you're on!"
Lawrie Mifflin's Story: Get What You Need and Leave
By: Lawrie Mifflin, Senior Editor for New Digital Initiatives, New York Times
I grew up in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania. My first love was field hockey. So when I was accepted to Yale in 1969, I walked through the university gates with my hockey stick tucked under my arm. After signing up for college classes I wanted to try out for the team. I asked around and was surprised to hear that Yale didn't have a women's hockey team.
Julia Chase-Brand's Story: Don't Rock the Boat
By: Julia Chase-Brand, Female Distance Runner and Doctor
I grew up on a small farm in Connecticut in the 1940's and 50's. I was an only girl with four brothers. If they were clearing the pond for hockey, I'd scrape snow off the ice and jump in the game. Once I was 12, I helped bail boats out during hurricanes. I got drafted into all sorts of things. I loved being a part of everything—as long as it was outdoors.

Hi Ken
If you start the video, then pause it for about 30 seconds and then press play, this helps. Sometimes the connection is slow so the video plays faster than it can download.
Thanks. These videos are awesome. I am a novice builder and could not have done it w/o these videos. I dont' think I would have even tried without them.
Thanks again.
Good job guys. My table looks nice and sturdy.
Most excellent information. I just finished (yesterday 12/01/21) building 3-1/2 of these tables using 1/2 in spruce plywood (birch available through special order only up here in Quebec) throughout for my O-scale layout which is to be 6′-6in wide by 14 ft long. Surprisingly sturdy yet fairly light. The ajustable feet are absolutely essential for leveling and alignment. Two variations I've done following recommendations from my hobby shop (JacHobby-Montreal): a. drilled 1/2 in holes every 6 in in the cross-braces and side braces for routing wiring. b. using 2 in blue styrofoam for the top. Apparently blue styrofoam is dense enough to allow (lightly) screwing the track down to the styrofoam. Also, O-scale being 1/48, 2 in thick represents 8 scale ft of depth for ditches, rivers, etc, etc.
I'm ready to glue the styrofoam to the top, paint it, then (woopie !) start laying track (MTH RealTrax).
Excellent videos so far. I am almost to the point of finishing the legs and attaching them. Now I am looking forward to the video(s) for attaching the styrofoam tops to the playwood. Where are is it (are they)?
Thank you for the very informative video on how to build your first table to begin your journey in the Model Railroad Life.
I went out yesterday, bought all the wood, got it home and cut all the pieces i needed to build the unit.
However, i have come across a small problem and that is with the cross pieces from 1 leg to the other. The diagonal pieces that is.
In the video you said to cut 4 pieces of 48 inch wood etc etc but i have noted that the straight distance between the legs in approx 58 inches.
My question is this: have you made a mistake in quoting 48 inches or am i doing something wrong?
Please clarify this point as soon as possible.
Many thanks again.
Gavin Wandry
Hi Gavin,
No, you are not doing anything wrong, there is a mistake in the video.
The angle braces (diagonal pieces) need to be 66″ long not 48″. In addition, you need twice as many bolts, washers and nuts.
Nice. I'm not at all handy with carpentry. I think I can do the table with the video near by. Thanks Jack
Makes it look easy, hope this is so. I will let you know after I am finished.

OK, so having played the PS3 demo a little while ago, i would say my first impressions are biased toward accepting the reality of the game. To make myself more clearer, before playing the demo i had the impression that this RE game is going to be an abomination and should be not touched. In fact, I'm still on my high alerts, as this is just the demo. To be precise, I've been stricken awe by a demo before that felt so good to be true, and that is Dragon's Dogma's. That demo gave me the impression of a game of my dreams, an open-world fantasy where you have your own companions and battle fantastical creatures with satisfying combat. Well, it turned out that was just the "tricky" first bite, that will eventually become redundant over successive bites.
Let's just go back to RE6, the demo really had me going and fueled my hunger. First of all, the sheer amount of setting you can adjust to your liking is amazing, it is like the developers said: "you whined about the controls in RE5 and whatnot you sons of b?%$#, here, you have plenty of options available and you can customize the color of the dot sight too!". The second thing that gripped my attention was the superb in-game animation, honestly I've never seen anything like it yet, the fluidity of the movements is incredible. Not to mention the top-notch graphics are also one of the best I've seen so far.
Let's first talk about the Leon campaign; you start off in some kind of presidential campus. The atmosphere is very tight and gripping, the lighting and shadows are awesome compared to the tight controls of your character. While saying that, well, surprise! surprise! you can move now...and move a lot!. No more sticking to your spot and shoot, you can do it freely, like most shooters do. Also, you can change your weapons and equipment without the need to enter that lofty "weapon management" screen anymore, who needs that anyway,right?. At this point i just accepted the fact that this a RE game and its not going to change, so i started to stretch my mind a little bit and pretend that this is not a RE game, so i can enjoy it.
OK, so continuing with the Leon campaign, which have the best atmosphere i think amongst the other ones, plus dark corridors, tension, zombies! the only thing that is distracting are the quick time events and those pointless "wait for partner to open the door with you" moments.
Second Campaign, Chris's. Skipping the cliched intro cut-scene. We are straight into action. You are accompanied by other members of BSAA (if you still remember what this is) and together you start blazing your way upstairs to the roofs of some building, gunning and "melee-ing" zombies, which surprisingly (or not) are now wielding guns, taking covers, and..what?...wearing masks?! Hold on a second, i'm fine with zombies wielding rifles, issuing commands, and being organized, but wearing wearing masks?...that is just absurd.
So, you manage to lead your way up the roofs and down again, beating "mindless" zombies and discover that your melee attacks are more powerful and efficient than your gun blazing, yeah, you aren't afraid of those brain-eaters anymore that you punch them straight in the face and perform an executing a KO move with fearless efficiency.
Onward to the last campaign available, the Jake campaign. This campaign is different than the other ones, it starts in daylight unlike the previous ones. featuring faster characters. Here you will experience one of the worst camera angles in the demo. The game gave you "hints" about the bad camera at hand, which will serve a bad remainder in this campaign, specifically when facing the mutant boss.
Overall, being a huge deviance from its previous RE installments (without a doubt), establishing a more action bombastic set-pieces and fluidity in control. The game does retain (at some points) some of that classic creepy Resident Evil atmosphere better than the sunny atmosphere of RE5. In fact, the game plays and feel much better than RE5 in so many ways.
The graphics and color depth are so vivid that anyone else will mistake it for a movie. The characters clothes and hair are just gorgeous.
Some elements of the game that disappointingly screams "action" that purposefully creates an atmosphere of "bumping adrenaline" instead of fear and tension, which the original RE titles captured. Having a "buddy" alongside and fighting helicopters and machine guns isn't horrific, if you ill-mouthed the latest RE movies, you will hate this certainly. Fans already experienced the same action-oriented gameplay in the last title, so basically you won't feel much changed in the style.
All in all, this is just the demo, i don't know if the full game will bring cries or laughs.

Reasonable Accommodations are a modification or adjustment to a course, program, service, activity or facility that enable a qualified student with a disability to have an equal opportunity. An equal opportunity is the chance to attain the same level of performance or to enjoy equal benefits and privileges that are available to a similarly-situated student without a disability.
Accommodations are established only after review of documentation and eligibility has been determined. All qualified students are required to meet with Student Disability Resource (SDR) staff to set up accommodations by completing a Student Academic Accommodation Request form (SAAR). Students requiring scanned books or sign language interpreters and/or captioning should contact SDR staff several weeks before each semester begins to ensure timely accommodations. A timely collaborative effort between the student, SDR Staff, and the faculty should produce a reasonable accommodation for a documented disability.

Policy Up for Renewal Soon? Keep Two Things in Mind
Recently, we responded to a tweet wondering whether a Progressive policy rate would go down if it's renewed. Like many other budget-conscious shoppers, the person who tweeted had compared rates at renewal time to make sure he was still getting a good deal. So what happens if you find a lower rate elsewhere? Why keep the policy you have?
Here are two things to consider.
If you renew your current policy, you might qualify for benefits and discounts. Progressive customers who renew a policy, for example, might qualify for guaranteed renewal, large accident forgiveness, and a young driver discount. These benefits can vary by state.
Not all policies are created equal, so a lower price might not be a better value. For example, a lower-priced policy might not include extras such as 24-hour customer service. Your deductible also might be higher.
So if your Progressive policy is up for renewal and you want a better rate, here's a great first step: Review your policy to see if you qualify for discounts or whether you can do something differently—like pay for your policy in full—to cut costs. You can review your policy anytime at progressive.com. Or, you can call a customer service representative.
Do you shop around at renewal time? What makes you stick around?
The information in this blog may vary based on your particular state or situation. Always refer to your insurance policy for your specific coverages.

You are herecontent / Europe's Five "Undeclared Nuclear Weapons States"
Europe's Five "Undeclared Nuclear Weapons States"
Does this mean that Turkey is a nuclear power?
"Far from making Europe safer, and far from producing a less nuclear dependent Europe, [the policy] may well end up bringing more nuclear weapons into the European continent, and frustrating some of the attempts that are being made to get multilateral nuclear disarmament," (George Robertson, quoted in Global Security, February 10, 2010)
"'Is Italy capable of delivering a thermonuclear strike?...
Could the Belgians and the Dutch drop hydrogen bombs on enemy targets?...
Germany's air force couldn't possibly be training to deliver bombs 13 times more powerful than the one that destroyed Hiroshima, could it?...
Nuclear bombs are stored on air-force bases in Italy, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands — and planes from each of those countries are capable of delivering them." ("What to Do About Europe's Secret Nukes." Time Magazine, December 2, 2009)

Police Detectives Eye Insider In Church Burglary
Police sources say they are looking for somebody who had the key to the church house attached to the First Congregational Church on Beach 94 Street after an overnight burglar took $4,000 worth of electrical equipment belonging to the Peninsula Performing Arts Conservatory on September 15.
"There was no forced entry into the building and there was no alarm, so the conjecture is that somebody had a key to the house," a police source told The Wave this week. "Unfortunately, lots of people had the key and we are presently eliminating suspects."
Michael Finnegan, the director for the local music organization, which uses the house at 320 Beach 94 Street as its headquarters and school, agreed with the police assessment.
"It had to be somebody with access to the building," Finnegan said, adding that he was lucky that "there was no cash in the building, no personal information," which could lead to later problems for members of the group.
Finnegan said that the theft of electronics, such as computers, wireless microphones and the organization's only telephone, put them back a bit in their first full week of operation for this school year.
He added, however, that nothing that was taken was critical and couldn't be replaced.
"We'll be up to speed by this week," Finnegan added. "This is not going to stop our kids."
Detectives from the 100 Precinct Detective Squad in Rockaway Park are investigating.

What I did
Gottweig Abbey
I have now been living in Krems for one and a half weeks and it already feels like home. There are so many of us international students and we have all met and bonded so well. If you walk down main street you are bound to see at least three people you know, no word of a lie. Note to self: Don't make enemies, you won't be able to escape them. Krems is the most beautiful little town and I have made many discoveries during my time here so far such as the cafes that have a menu in English, the best place to buy quiche, and the little shop in Steinor Tor that sells $10 dooner covers! Wooohooo now I don't feel like a homeless person anymore. It snowed for a few days last week and of course the Aussie tourist was in heaven! Everything was beautifully white, I made my first snow angel, and I had a few snowball fights with people who had experienced them way too frequently
For our last day of orientation we went on an excursion to a few locations in the Wachau valley which Krems is a part of. First stop was a little town by the name of Durnstein where we walked the streets and seen some beautiful old buildings and learnt a little about the towns history. Due to the recent weather, a man in a snow-mover had taken to the roads. It seemed after a few laps past hunting us off the road, that he wasn't actually after the snow and perhaps was attempting to run us down instead. Next stop was the Melk Abbey in Melk of course which is now partly a school, and had a beautifully long 200m hallway, a massive library with secret doorways through the books, and a huge church absoloutely covered in gold! I've decided this is where my Austrian husband (which I am yet to pick) and I will get married...just kidding mum! But on a serious note I think you would have to take a packed lunch to walk from one side of the Abbey to the other. You definitely wouldn't want to be leaving one shoe in your bedroom! Our final destination was the Gottweig Abbey which is just on the other side of the Danube and can be seen from most places in Krems. The building was beautiful but unfortunately due to the snowy day, we couldn't see the view of Krems and Stein, so we will have to return during the spring
My first uni classes have been good so far! I've been to German for beginners (turns out most of them arn't beginners - Schei�e), Health and Spa tourism in which we conveniently get to go on an excursion to a spa, and finally to Cultural tourism. The lecture rooms are so different to Auz as they are in an old monestry, providing lots of distractions to look at, but the classes have all been great so far. The campus also has this machine where you can buy any type of coffee or hot chocolate your heart desires for 60 cents! This is convenient as I am attempting to wein myself onto coffee so that I have more drinking options when I go to a cafe, so far so good! (I am also aiming to develop a love for Olive's and red wine - it will be done!)
Some quirky Krems happenings thus far:
- The Canadians and myself have also discovered that our house mate Cecile the Frenchie is quite the character, but we are yet to decide whether this is for better or for worse. Due to the language barrier we have deided that she is able to get away with much more then she should. Let me give a few examples and you will understand.
1. One morning I asked her what shoes I should wear with the outfit I had on, and whilst gazing in my cupboard she replied 'No, I don't like your shoes', giggled, and walked away
2. Jenny was singing a song whilst getting ready before dinner and Cecile commented 'JJ, you like to sing?', 'Well yes Cecile I do!', in which Cecile replied 'Well you are not very good!'
3. Katie was plucking her eyebrows in the mirror when she asked Cecile if they looked alright, and of course she replied 'NOO' with a horrified face on!
We have now decided that Frenchie understands much more than she lets on! Mostly due to the fact that she escapes into her bedroom whenever there is house work to be done - sneaky Frenchie.
- Even though our apartment is in such a prime location, the downside is that our kitchen is the size of dads Morris Eight - and anyone who has folded into that car knows what I'm talking about! Cooking dinner is quite the event, and there is no time for personal bubbles if you want a meal by the end of it. Despite our dodgy sized kitchen, this has made us all the more family-like and we have learnt to maneuver around each other successfully!
- I discovered a REAL sized supermarket and Big W type store yesterday about 1km up the road in a random side street! I literally spent 1.5 hours walking around the supermarket browsing away at all the bizzarre food and cheap electricals... and walked out with one bulb of garlic. Typical wog.
I am now off to a local student's house (Marissa), who will be cooking us the traditional Austrian Wiener Schnitzel and Kaiserschmarren for dessert! Yummmmmy :)

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Playing its fourth game in seven days, the road-weary University of Michigan men's basketball team lost a 79-43 decision to Purdue on Wednesday night (Feb. 13) at Mackey Arena. Bernard Robinson Jr. (Washington D.C./New Hampton Prep [N.H.]) led the Wolverines with 13 points while LaVell Blanchard (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer HS) added 11 points. Purdue received a game-high 23 points from Willie Deane.
Michigan (10-13, 5-7 Big Ten) shot just 24 percent (14-of-58) from the field in the game and fell into a deep hole by the end of the first half. The Wolverines jumped out to an early 8-6 lead at 15:06 with a triple from Robinson and five points from Blanchard, but Purdue responded with 13 straight points, including a triple from Darmetreis Kilgore at 11:51. Michigan's shooting woes continued as the Boilermakers outscored the Maize and Blue over three to one, 32-9, over the last 15 minutes.
Purdue (12-14, 4-8, Big Ten) built on its 38-17 halftime lead with the first eight points of the second frame, building to a 36-point lead, 69-33, at 6:23 with a Deane jumper. Unable to work the ball inside to Chris Young (Plymouth, Mich./Catholic Central HS), Michigan was forced to shoot from outside, where it was able to make only six of its school-record 32 three-point attempts.
The Wolverines return home after five days on the road for a Sunday (Feb. 17) game against Indiana at Crisler Arena. The game 1 p.m. will being televised by CBS.

Just found a strange small bump on my kitty's belly? (pic included)
So my cat was laying on my bed here is a picture of him:
While he was laying on his side, I noticed a small patch of fur was missing from his belly. I looked and in the middle of the missing patch of fur was a little white bump. He seemed to get uncomfortable when I touched it. Here is a pic of the bump:
I've never noticed it before, and my brother thinks it's just a nipple. But do male cats even have nipples? And this is the only bump on his entire body..
Any idea what it could be? Are small bumps like this common on cats?
He is 6 years old and an indoor cat btw

Looks like a nipple to me. Male cats do have them, and they come in matched sets. But if you are concerned, you should definitely take him to a vet.

I agree with Monster, that sure looks like a nipple to me. Take a closer look and I'll bet you will find several more lined up on each side of his belly.

The report of the inquiry into financial products and services in Australia by the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services (the Ripoll Report) makes 11 recommendations.
They can be summarised as advocating greater disclosure and investor education, increased powers for the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) and supervision of advisers, giving advisers a fiduciary responsibility, improving self-regulation and reducing commissions, and - if all else fails - considering an investor compensation fund.
As admirable as most of these recommendations are, and they are much like motherhood, they do not signal radical change or really address the fundamental problem of the yawning, growing gap between financial product sophistication and retail customer understanding, knowledge (and greed).
Unfortunately, there is a strong incentive to construct financial products that can be sold to retail customers for more than they are worth, recognising that inadequate expertise means that customers may never realise they have paid over the odds, or taken excessive risks. In some cases, such as those of Storm and Opes Prime, the chickens come home to roost and prompt inquiries such as this one, but more generally the value expropriated goes largely unnoticed.
Ensuring good financial advice may seem to be the antidote, but faces several fundamental problems. First, how is a poorly informed individual going to determine which, among a growing gaggle of advisers, is a good one? The answer: probably on the basis of mass marketing of a brand name, which unfortunately and increasingly happens to be that of a major supplier of financial products and software platforms to which the adviser is linked.
A second problem is that individuals are naturally reluctant to part with cash upfront for advice, the quality of which they cannot judge. Hence, and also reflecting a fundamental aspect of human nature, there is a preference for payment via largely hidden, deferred payments to advisers built into future investment returns or borrowing costs.
So what might have been recommended instead (or in addition)? First, there are grounds for re-examining the biases in our tax system that encourage individuals to take levered positions in risky assets.
Second, banning retail investor access to certain complex financial products (perhaps unless they have passed an appropriate "driving" test) might be considered - although that seems somewhat draconian even in the current anti-free-market climate of public opinion.
Less draconian would be a combination of "default options" with an adaptation of the ASIC "if not, why not" approach. This would involve specifying a range of financial portfolio positions thought appropriate for households with various characteristics, and requiring that financial advisers provide clients with explicit reasons for why they recommend departing from that range. We know that specification of default options biases individuals towards staying with the default, and potential liability for recommending departures might concentrate the minds of financial advisers wonderfully.
What about the problem of adviser commissions? Perhaps there is a case for requiring complete separation and independence of firms of advisers from financial product suppliers and platform providers. Is it really appropriate that the major banks and life insurance companies, through various subsidiaries, produce and market financial products on financial software platforms that the advisers they employ induce retail customers to buy?
More generally, why not give retail customers some say over the allocation of commission income? Would trailing commissions be seen as such a problem if it were required that the customer be advised each year by a product supplier of what commission is to be paid to the originating adviser, unless the customer informs the supplier that the payment should go instead to a different registered adviser. Yes, that could be subject to exploitation if not appropriately structured (if, for example, the customer's brother is also a registered adviser) but it would give some power over commission payments to disgruntled customers and concentrate wonderfully the focus of advisers on after-sales service.

By Megan Sperling, Eagle Staff Writer
CENTER TWP — More than 150 young people are in the nation's capital this week to lobby government officials about Type 1 Diabetes.
One of those is Caroline Simms, 13, daughter of Paul and Mary Simms of Center Township.
She is a member of this year's Children's Congress, which is in Washington, D.C., today through Wednesday.
JDRF, formerly called the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, takes children who have T1D to talk to members of Congress about the disease that they live with every day.
"The children have the difficult, but important task of telling their story as a way of putting a human face to a disease with challenging complications," said Lara Daly, development manager of JDRF.
The children represent every state and some will be traveling from Europe.
Daly said, "The goals for Children's Congress is to ensure that we renew the funding of the Special Diabetes Program, raise awareness, show the delegate that their voice does make a difference and also allow them to meet other kids who want a cure just as badly as they do."
Caroline has had T1D for two years. In February 2011 she felt ill, and her symptoms made doctors think it was a stomach bug.
But Caroline did not have a stomach bug, and on Feb. 10, 2011, she slipped into a ketoacidosis coma while sleeping.
According to the American Diabetes Association, this coma is caused when "your cells don't get the glucose they need for energy, your body begins to burn fat for energy, which produces ketones, acids that build up in the blood and appear in the urine when your body doesn't have enough insulin."
Her mother, Mary, was away on business, but a family friend was there to help Caroline's father take care of the children.
The next day was a snow day at school and her family intended to let her sleep in, until a family friend who was helping out realized that Caroline's breath was shallow.
When Caroline reached the hospital, her blood sugar levels were at 1,697 when normal levels are 80 to 120. According to Caroline's doctors, she would have lived only 45 more minutes if she had not been treated, her mother said.
She was healthy and never showed any symptoms, which include fruity breath, extreme thirst and frequent urination.
Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disease caused when the pancreas stops producing insulin, a hormone that allows a person's body to get energy from food. It has not been linked to food or lifestyle, and for now is incurable.
While Caroline was in the hospital, she and her mother were taught how to test sugar levels and inject insulin, and they were told that keeping Caroline alive would be their job.
Caroline's mother checks her sugar levels at midnight and 3 a.m. every night to prevent her daughter from slipping into another coma.
But instead of shying away from the disease, Caroline has stepped up and taken it head on. She wears a pump on her hip that injects a constant stream on insulin, and she is constantly checking her sugar levels.
She can take it off for up to two hours when she plays sports. A straight A student, she is active with track and soccer.
Caroline can never forget that she is living with the disease, but life does become a little easier when she attends camp. She gets excited and her eyes light up as she says, "Camp is the best thing ever."
She is talking about her weeklong diabetes camp, where she does not have to constantly remember that she is living with the disease because everyone there has it and the staff remembers for her.
"It's not like I have to be on top of things because they are so on top of things," she said. "It's awesome how they do it."
Before every meal, people with T1D have to check their sugar levels to know how to regulate their medication with their food.
Caroline has to count every carbohydrate she eats. Food that causes her sugar levels to rise one day can have the opposite effect the next day.
"We count every carb, but if she wants a piece of birthday cake at a party, she is going to have one," Mary said. "Nothing she ate or did caused this."
After being diagnosed, Caroline did a science project to learn more about the disease, and has decided that when she attends college someday she would like to be a research scientist.
"I want to be a medical researcher," Caroline said.
Caroline helped the research clinic at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh by allowing it to run clinical testing on her to study T1D. She got paid $25 every time she went down and she donated that money to JDRF.
JDRF researches the disease and helps raise awareness about the children and adults who live with it.
"Raising money for research is key, but awareness is huge," her mother said.
Caroline works hard to help people understand that this is a serious illness.
"Educating people, that's what I like most about talking to people," Caroline said.
Caroline educates people by attending events held by the JDRF and competing in events that raise money and awareness for the disease.
Caroline is excited to join the Children's Congress. Among well-known people at the event will be actress Mary Tyler Moore, who is the international chairman for JDRF. Moore was not diagnosed with the disease until she was in her 30s.
Crystal Bowersox, who was a contestant on season nine of "American Idol," will perform with the children.
The children attending the event will speak to government officials from their home states, and some children will be chosen to speak to Congress.

I had so much fun with this blog earlier on, with the best period being the first couple years of fixing up the house. I'm so glad that I have that difficult but rewarding time documented, and it even had a few unexpected perks (namely, my kitchen in Home Magazine and Design*Sponge at Home, both huge honors!).
But here's the deal. I'm not working on huge projects every weekend anymore. Sure, there are things here and there, but not enough to fill up a blog. And you know what else? Lately I'm not even that into other people's blogs. I found myself reading hundreds of them on my Google Reader, scrolling through picture after picture, almost like it was a job to get through them and not because I was getting anything out of it. But the real bottom line is that I just don't feel a huge need or desire to post about my life anymore. At least not in this format.
I finally gave in and got an iPhone, and because of it I've fallen in love with Instagram. I really enjoy how quick it is, and how I don't have to come up with a concept that is "worthy" of a whole post before I put it out there. I am capturing moments from my life...just for me...and if other people would like to see them, then that's great too.
And what I really love about it is that its not pictures from somewhere else (oh man, don't even get me started on Pinterest. It is amazing but WHOA inspiration overload. I've been off of it for about a month now and I feel like my head is finally starting to clear). The pictures I see from the people I follow on Instagram (and the pictures you'll see if you follow me) won't be a perfectly designed space that you'll see on 10 different design blogs. They are actual moments of beauty that someone captured during a normal day. And I think we need more of that.
