For the past decade I've been a writer and editor specializing in architecture and urban issues. I recently edited two series, City Makers: Global Shifts and City Makers: Global Stories, for The Atlantic's CityLab, and I write a column on architecture for the Washington City Paper. I'm also a contributing editor at Architect, the magazine of the American Institute of Architects (AIA).
From 2006 to 2011, I was senior and then executive editor of Architect, where I wrote about everything from the Myers-Briggs scores of architects to the Kinks and historic preservation, and got to edit articles by stellar journalists. Architect was shortlisted for a National Magazine Award for general excellence in 2011.
Before that, I was an associate editor at Preservation, the magazine of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. I have a Ph.D. in literature from the University of Bristol in England and an M.A. from the University of St. Andrews, Scotland, and now live in Silver Spring, Md.

In twenty years of campaigning for tribal peoples' rights, nothing prepared me for meeting the Akuntsu.
It was at that first moment, when six solitary figures sitting in a forest clearing grasped our hands, that I fully understood the enormity of this encounter: I was witnessing the extinction of an entire people in my lifetime.
Although nobody has fully mastered the Akuntsu language, it is possible to piece together their story. Konibú, a shaman, listed the names of relatives who had died when they were attacked by ranchers' gunmen, counting them on his fingers and imitating the sound of gunfire. Pupak showed me where he was shot in the back as he fled. Later, when we heard chainsaws echoing through the forest, a collective tremor passed through the group, no doubt reliving harrowing memories of the massacre when their homes were bulldozed and their forest razed to the ground.
Now, with the death of an elderly woman, they have suffered another loss.
I last saw Ururú, who was about 80, a year ago. The Akuntsu were preparing for a ritual, their hair dyed a rich red from urucum (annato paste) and their bodies painted in intricate black patterns from genipapo (black dye from a plant).
There was a quiet, understated dignity in their obvious determination to carry on with life despite the horrors of the past. Before we left, Konibú played his flute – the notes long and tremulous – a haunting and deeply humbling moment. I left wondering if this would be the last time I would meet these remarkable and courageous people.
The future of persecuted tribes like the Akuntsu, who face persecution all over the world, is a question of ethics and justice which goes to the heart of what it means to be human. This persecution is often rooted in greed and racism, but it can be stopped if their right to live their own way on their own land is upheld. It is simply a matter of respect for those who wish to decide themselves how they wish to live. The only real difference between them and us is that we can act to stop genocide, and they can't.

Tork: OddMature
I stick to the Shadows sitting on a brach highly elevated off the ground. I blended well with the the green jacket agianst the trees. I wasn't hiding from fear but for more of obsrvation purposes. I saw three figures. One was a girl from my school , and her brother. The other a girl soaking wet. Then a little later another girl from school walked by. She headed to the same direction that the group of three walked by too. Then shortly after the grounds keeper. He seemed to have his dog sniffing the ground. He was following the same path.
This is odd , from what I can tell they were all going to the same place seeing that that trail lead to only one place. I slid off the branch and broke my fall by rolling onto the trail. I get up onto my feet. Should I investigate or should I head home. Home sucks I went to catch up to the ground's keeper.
" Hey." I stop and then slip hitting the back of my head on a rock.
" AHHHHHHHHHHHH SHIT." I yell holding the back of my head.
" Language." The old grounds keeper says sternly.
I ignore as the back of my head begins to bleed.
" That isn't good." I said lifting my hand off my head revealing a bloody hand. The grounds keeper steps backwards shocked.

Tom: I'm such a loser.Mature
What was she talking about?
I had no idea what had just happened. I was frozen in the hall for at least ten minutes just pondering over the words that were just screamed at me. A few girls came by to ask me what was wrong, but I didn't respond. I was completely alone in the halls, and I didn't even blink.
What girls worship the ground I walk on?
Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me. I looked over to see that girl again. Chrissy. She saw me, shifted her gaze away and then shuffled down the hall. "WAIT!" I yelled after her. I ran around the corner to see her jogging towards the bathroom. "WAIT! NO NO NO NO!" I dashed past her and stood in front of the door.
"Tom, I really have to---"
"Just hear me out," I said quickly. "Please."
Chrissy sighed. "What?"
"I'm a jerk, I know. I shouldn't have said that to Isobel. It was rude, judge mental, and just plain wrong. She'll probably avoid me, but can you just tell her I'm sorry? Really genuinely sorry?"
She didn't reply. She just stared at me for a few moments, not moving an inch. "Tom," she finally said. "Isobel isn't really mad. She's just under a lot of stress right now. Trust me, I know her. She'll be over it in a day."
I sighed. I remembered the gossip that Isobel and Chrissy had shared with each other, and I knew I had to clear that up. "And look," I said, gulping. "Rhea and I are just friends. That's it. I don't plan on being anything more than that."
She nodded. "I know. Sometimes I just say stupid things. I'm sorry if I---"
"Don't be sorry. I can see why you'd think that, but I promise it's not like that. At all."
Chrissy nodded slowly.
"Can I ask you something?"
I swallowed. "Why did Isobel say that girls kiss the floor I walk on? That's not true. So why would she---" I stopped. Chrissy's face turned red.
"Well, it---I---you see---uhh..."
I frowned.
"Look," she said, sighing. "It's the truth. Girls love you."
My eyes widened. "Since when?!"
"Since forever!" Chrissy exclaimed. "You could have any girl you want in this school. That's why Isobel doesn't like you that much. She thinks you're full of yourself."
I blinked. What? "I had no idea. I swear! I still don't get it."
"I believe you."
I felt like smiling, but it never came. I suddenly realized that I was still in Chrissy's way. "You probably want to go to the bathroom, don't you?"
"Yes, please," Chrissy said with a grin.
I smiled back. "Alrighty. I'll get out of your way." I walked past her and started to walk towards my class, that I was very late to.
"One more thing," Chrissy called after me.
I turned.
"Isobel isn't a gossip girl."
I nodded. "I know. Neither of you are. It's just that, most girls that I used to hang out with were. I guess if I even sense a little bit of that, I immediately assume like they're one of them. I just don't like gossip girls. Sadly, gossip girls are the only girls I've ever really...dated."
"Is that why you haven't dated anyone lately?" she asked. She immediately blushed, so she probably regretted asking.
I nodded. "I guess I'm just waiting for the right girl." I stared at her for a second. Without warning, the voice came back. It said, Don't forget her cell number! "Chrissy," I said quickly. "I never got your number."
Chrissy's pink blush swelled into a dark scarlet. "Oh---right, uhh...do you want me to tell you now?"
I chuckled. "Yeah, sure."
She said it to me from memory, and I quickly jotted it down in my head. "Okay, sounds good. I'll call you sometime---or text. Whichever. Do you prefer text or call?"
"Call would be nice," she said.
I smiled. "Awesome---yeah, okay. So I'll---Okay. I will talk to you later."
"Okay," she said, disappearing behind the doors.
I took a deep breath. "Oh man she's cute," I whispered to myself. I turned and started to walk down the hallway. I'm such a loser.

You write about the uncertainty of history and the effort of trying to get back to some kind of origin, particularly through the creation of replicas and enhancements of the past. In several of your novels you talk about first memories. England, England begins, "What was your first memory?" though Martha finds she can't remember. You use a similar line in Arthur & George, and maybe even Staring at the Sun. It's something that seems to come up in your writing, and so I've always wanted to ask you: What was your first memory? On Memory • BARNES: I have absolutely no idea at all, but it is a recurrent interest of mine. The book I'm writing at the moment involves, at a certain point, exchanges with my brother, who is three years older than me, about what we remember about our childhood. My brother, I should explain, is by profession a philosopher, and he believes that all memories are untrue. All—without exception. So we have a certain argument. But actually what we remember about our childhood is completely different and often contradictory. I'm completely unable to disentangle authentic memories from things I was told had happened to me. I think all my earliest memories are things my parents or grandparents told me I had said or done when I was a small child, and they've become part of my "memory bank." I'm also not sure at what age they really happened, between three and six or eight or so. We think of memories as being there, leaving almost a physical trace of some sort, and being things that are theoretically recapturable, just as anything that you do on your computer can be retrieved by the FBI, unless it's been ground and smashed to very, very small pieces indeed. But I think that memory, as I understand it, and I'm only at a sort of primitive stage of reading up about it, doesn't seem to work like that. There isn't what we would think of as a permanent, physical trace there. Indeed, the cells that contain it are changing by the hour in their shape and in their existence— I'm speaking in very rough scientific terms, you understand. I do apologize. • Schiff, James A. "A Conversation with Julian Barnes." Missouri Review 2007 (30.3): 60-80. Web. Making Sense of History • "'Indeed, isn't the whole business of ascribing responsibility a kind of cop-out? We want to blame an individual so that everyone else is exculpated. Or we blame a historical process as a way of exonerating individuals. Or it's all anarchic chaos, with the same consequence. It seems to me that there is—was—a chain of individual responsibilities, all of which were necessary, but not so long a chain that everybody can simply blame everyone else. But of course, my desire to ascribe responsibility might be more a reflection of my own cast of mind than a fair analysis of what happened. That's one of the central problems of history, isn't it, sir? The questions of subjective versus objective interpretaion, the fact that we need to know the history of the historian in order to understand the version that is being put in front of us.'" (13) • "You might even ask me to apply my "theory" to myself and explain what damage I had suffered a long way back and what its consequences might be: for instance, how it might affect my reliability and truthfulness. I'm not sure I could answer this, to be honest" (49). A Personal History • "Even if you have assiduously kept records—in words, sound, pictures—you may find that you have attended to the wrong kind of record-keeping. What was the line Adrian used to quote? 'History is that certainty produced at the point where the imperfections of memory meet the inadequacies of documentation.'" (65) • "But I've been turning over in my mind the question of nostalgia, and whether I suffer from it . . . But if nostalgia means the powerful recollection of strong emotions—and a regret that such feelings are no longer present in our lives—then I plead guilty. I'm nostalgic for my early time with Margaret, for Susie's birth and first years, for that road trip with Annie. And if we're taking about strong feelings that will never come again, I suppose it's possible to be nostalgic about remembered pain as well as remembered pleasure. And that opens up the field, doesn't it? It also leads straight to the matter of Miss Veronica Ford." (89) Character and Identity • "How often do we tell our own life story? How often do we adjust, embellish, make sly cuts? And the longer life goes on, the fewer are those around to challenge our account, to remind us that our life is not our life, merely the story we have told about our life. Told to others, but—mainly—to ourselves" (104). • "Does character develop over time? In novels, of course it does: otherwise there wouldn't be much of a story. But in life? I sometimes wonder. Our attitudes and opinions change, we develop new habits and eccentricities; but that's something different, more like decoration. Perhaps character resembles intelligence, except that character peaks a little later: between twenty and thirty, say. And after that, we're just stuck with what we've got. We're on our own. If so, that would explain a lot of lives, wouldn't it? And also—if this isn't too grand a word—our tragedy" (113). Retrospection • "When you are in your twenties, even if you're confused and uncertain about your aims and purposes, you have a strong sense of what life itself is, and of what you in life are, and might become. Later . . . Later there is more uncertainty, more overlapping, more backtracking, more false memories. Back then, you can remember your short life in its entirety. Later, the memory becomes a thing of shreds and patches. It's a bit like the black box aeroplanes carry to record what happens in a crash. If nothing goes wrong, the tape erases itself. So if you do crash, it's obvious why you did; if you don't then the log of y our journey is much less clear" (115). • Return of memories (122-123) • Using Google Earth to find clues • Story of ghosts Ebb and Flow • "The time deniers say: forty's nothing, at fifty you're in your prime, sixty's the new forty, and so on. I now this much: that there is objective time, but also subjective time, the kind you wear on the inside of your writes, next to where the pulse lies. And this personal time, which is the true time, is measured in your relationship to memory. So when this strange thing happened—when these new memories suddenly came upon me—it was as if, for that moment, time had been placed in reverse. As if, for that moment, the river ran upstream" (134). http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1735599

Hi all.
I cannot make a decision so need help. I've logged 200 miles on nike+ through my iphone. I now want a GPS watch and thought immediately of the nike spartwatch as to reatin and continue my stats. Coming in at c. £150 and thats fine.
However, the Garmin 610 is on sale at £150 now and am being told by some that garmin is the way to go and this watch is normally £230.
Do I go Garmin 610 and forego my last 200 miles of info or stick to nike???
Doh!!! typo on the header should not be Farmin although I am farming for ideas!!!
You can use various online services to get your nike+ runs into Garmin Connect, the equivilent of the Nike website.
In my opinion, the Garmin 610 for £150 is an absolute steal and would pick the Garmin every time.
Garmin FR610 ordered. Thanks all.

What a stacked political agenda affords us.
This is a discussion on Lawful Gun Ownership = Trigger for No Knock Raids? Supreme Court Rejects Appeal within the The Second Amendment & Gun Legislation Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to hear the case of a Texas man whose home was subject to a no-knock, SWAT-team style forceful entry ...
https://www.rutherford.org/publicati...amendment_caseThe U.S. Supreme Court has refused to hear the case of a Texas man whose home was subject to a no-knock, SWAT-team style forceful entry and raid based solely on the suspicion that there were legally-owned firearms in his household. In denying a petition for certiorari in Quinn v. Texas, the Court let stand a lower court ruling that essentially makes lawful gun ownership and possession grounds for police to evade the protections afforded by the Fourth Amendment and improperly penalizes and limits the Second Amendment right to bear arms. The Rutherford Institute had asked the Court to weigh in on the case and protect Americans against encroachments on their Second Amendment rights.
This is the first I've heard about this incident and case. Apparently it's been going on for a while...

"Don't shout for help at night, you may wake your neighbors"
Crazy... am I reading this right, the lower courts say by legally owning firearms you basically wave your 4th Amendment rights?
How can that be.. why not say if you claim the 5th or 1st Amendment you waive the 4th....

Not true, the police HAD a legal warrant. The issue was the way they served the warrant. Why is he complaining so much? Oh yeah, the police found cocaine on a valid warrant, so he is trying to make this a "2nd Amendment" issue so he can get the search invalidated.In denying a petition for certiorari in Quinn v. Texas, the Court let stand a lower court ruling that essentially makes lawful gun ownership and possession grounds for police to evade the protections afforded by the Fourth Amendment
It does not go into how a warrant must be served. No knock warrants have been found valid over and over. Now should just owning a firearm make it an automatic no knock warrant? Of course not. But this is not a 4th Amendment issue, not a 2nd Amendment issue. It is a person that had drugs that is trying to find a way to get out of being busted.
OutWestSystems.. thanks.. that makes sense
I guess my day is almost done and my old eyes are not as reliable as they were this morning
I can almost, ALMOST, support it.. if there is probable cause, and warrant issued, and weapons are known to be in the house, would you want to knock and serve?

-Some people shoot guns others "run" them.
-I don't dislike Glocks but often dislike Glock owners.
-Open carry is to a handgun as bluetooth is to a cell phone!
-Simple math can deliver posts per day... some gun forum members need to get out more!!!
Well, the "no knock" principle seems to have worked well for the nazis and the KGB. Gee, we should all embrace it. We can all go to bed tonight and be confident that the police never get an address wrong or receive a false tip of drug dealing, and mistakenly invade our homes with guns blazing. Just bust down the front door and shoot the dog, set the house on fire with tear gas or flash bangs. It's OK. We live in America, our freedoms are secure. Hey, that said they were sorry. Ivan lives next door.
I shoot with a pistol and a Canon. We must all hang together amigos, or we will all hang separately. NRA life member.
I understand and can agree in concept with the no-knock warrant.
However, my personal view is that it should be up to a judge to determine if no-knock is justifiable unless there is something happening at the time the warrant is being served that gives police reason to enter unannounced. The fact is, the police knew this was a legal gun owner before they asked for the warrant and they knew how they would undertake the raid. I don't think it should be up to them to make such decisions. We have judges issue warrants for a reason.
Of course, the SCOTUS apparently disagrees with me - go figure, the SCOTUS finding for more government intrusion on citizens.
It amounts to saying: "We respect your right to own firearms, but we take the fact that you own firearms as an implicit threat against us in and of itself, and may have to shoot you as a result." Hardly what the framers had in mind.
As for the drugs, it was under a gram and likely his son's, since that was the reason for the warrant in the first place.
"Lots of ways to help people. Sometimes heal patients; sometimes shoot dangerous people. Either way helps."
- Dr. Mordin Solus
Haven't seen the actual warrant itself, nor the judge's justifications for granting it. Haven't seen any other writing or report about this case, other than this Rutherford Institute item (above).Originally Posted by From the article @ The Rutherford Institute
But it seems clear that the warrant was based on drugs being suspected, and that it did not authorize a no-knock, unannounced entry. Yet, such an entry was done. Either it was done based on (a) ignoring the specs of the warrant, or (b) due to the additional info known but not claimed on the warrant (ie, knowing or believing weapons were in the home, despite being lawfully owned).
Complaining based on the no-knock, unannounced entry being specifically disallowed in the warrant, yet it being done anyway. Seems simple enough. I'd "complain", too.
And, sure, I'd be plenty happy if such an end-around the 4A and warrant's requirements resulted in any and all evidence found getting tossed. Why not?

Oklahoma's Chris Chester, a 6'4, 300-pound offensive lineman from Oklahoma, raised his stock considerably at this year's Combine in Indianapolis. A tight end who converted to center late in his collegiate career, he's a versatile, athletic prospect who drew interview requests from over half of the NFL teams and should be selected in the upper half of the NFL Draft in April.
You can hear Chris answer a few questions from our live interview with him at the Combine here:
Listen to Audio. (Windows Media player required)
Read on to find out more about him from our chat with him following the Combine.
Question: Did any team at the Combine talk to you about being a tight end, instead of an offensive lineman?
Chris Chester: The Chiefs did. They said, if for some reason I don't come in right away and get a chance to play at center or guard, I could just be kind of a second tight end in situations so I can get on the field, make an impact and contribute while still working at center at guard.
Q: How much special teams work did you do during college? Were there any specific special teams that you feel you excelled at?
CC: I was on the punt cover team, kickoff return and field goal team as well. The team I liked the most was punt coverage. It was more or less pass set. I was pretty big. We saw a lot of DBs and a lot of smaller guys on the rush. So it was pretty easy to block for the punt team. But also I had good enough feet, where I could be effective in coverage.
Q: How much of an issue was your broken hand and knee injury from your senior year? Did that get brought up quite often during your interviews?
CC: Everyone asked about it because I ended up missing four games. But the injury itself was kind of a typical injury. I didn't even have an MRI on my knee. I was back pretty quick actually. It's usually a four to six weeks for recover, and I was back in four weeks. Also, I didn't have any surgery.
Q: When you had your interviews with the GM's, head coaches or coaches, what is it that you wanted to get across to them about you as a person?
CC: I've always had this kind of lineman mentality and this concept of football. My beliefs on football, especially as a lineman, it's always hard work. And I think that playing offensive line kind of exemplifies that hard work. It's something that always had a whole lot of respect for.

Stick a pin in it! by Paul Ford of Readability and Postlight
Joyce Park stashed this in Code
Stashed in: Pinterest, @rands, @hunterwalk, @ftrain, Awesome, Bookmarks!, Medium
Hilarious (if you're a webdev) account of reverse-engineering an unappealing grabby web "service" from Pinterest. As a PandaWhale founder, it's sort of funny yet sad that Pinterest might be going in the direction of pinning whole articles...
Btw, after reading this Medium post about Pinterest's questionable tactics, I wonder what they were thinking.
Up until Friday, we've been in awe of Pinterest. They have built an enormous platform, shipped some amazing products, and stay focused on their users rather than on getting headlines. Ad injection via plugins seems like a weird step for them to take to promote their new bookmarking service, but they have commercial pressures we can only imagine. It feels off, is all.
On the vanishingly small chance that someone from Pinterest's leadership reads this, we suggest that Pinterest stop inserting vaguely-defined promotions on other people's sites, "experiment" or not.
If not willing to do that, Pinterest should at least make clear to their users where the ads are coming from. Just adding some text to the injected ad, such as, "You're seeing this message because you installed the Pin It Button for Chrome," would be a good start. Clarity is a sign of respect. Or do a colored stripe across the top of the page, which is a better-known pattern for promotional ad injection, along with a "don't show me this again" opt-out.
And all that aside, please fix the regular expression on line 1031 in cr_139.js.If Pinterest is going to do the wrong thing, they should at least do it well.

Swedish foreign minister quits in cartoon internet row
Swedish foreign minister Laila Freivalds resigned on Tuesday (21 March) following a row connected to the infamous Mohammed cartoons.
Ms Freivalds had faced fierce criticism after the Swedish foreign ministry allegedly ordered the website of a far-right party, Sweden Democrats, which had threatened to publish the cartoons, to be shut down.

The website was closed when a foreign ministry official contacted the firm Levonline that hosted the website.
In response to allegations that the move violated Swedish freedom of speech laws, Ms Freivalds claimed the official had merely pointed out that the website was endangering the lives of Swedes.
Ms Freivalds also said she had no knowledge of her ministry's contact with the website hosts.
Swedish prime minister Goran Persson also accused the ministry official of acting unconstitutionally by letting his own opinion in the matter guide his acts instead of Swedish law.
Earlier this week, the official himself told the Swedish attorney-general investigating the closure that he had deliberated with Ms Freivalds prior to contacting Levonline, and that the minister had claimed the move was vital to "protect Swedish interests."
The incident has been seen as embarrassing the prime minister.
The shutting down of the website is currently being investigated by the Swedish parliament'a constitutional committee and the office of the chancellor of justice, and opposition leaders on Wednesday hinted that a possible vote of no confidence against the prime minister may be initiated.
Cartoons legacy hangs over Denmark
Meanwhile across the Oresund strait, Denmark has reacted with anger to a UN campaign poster marking the World Day against racism, picturing a jigsaw puzzle and a piece of Lego - one of Denmark's best export products and almost a national symbol.
"Racism takes many shapes" says the poster, which has also been printed in Arabic states.
Danish human rights activists call the poster "tactless and stupid" and the "deeply surprised" Lego firm has contacted the UN for an explanation, the Nordic press writes.
After an official request by Danish foreign minister Per Stig Moller, UN spokesperson Jose Luis Diaz said the poster designer was "probably not aware of the Lego piece origin", and that the poster would be withdrawn.

Inside Myself ( Agent X's Poetry Contest )
Poem by: angellynn
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
Inside Myself
I've faded into a memory
of the girl I used to be,
my heart echo's that I'm still breathing
but there's nothing left of me.
I've become invisable
buried way down deep inside,
curled up in my empty shell
swallowed up by foolish pride.
The streets are my haven
my final resting place,
society can-not find me
for I am every face.
I was someones daughter
a lover and a friend,
but because they refused to see me
I'll dsappear inside myself again.

Panthers fall to top team in New England
PLYMOUTH, N.H. – Sophomore Shannon Thompson (Moorpark, Calif.) and freshman Corinne Porter (Huntington Beach, Calif.) combined for 24 kills Tuesday evening as the University of Massachusetts Boston defeated Plymouth State University in straight sets in a Little East Conference women's volleyball match at Foley Gymnasium.
The Panthers kept the match close but could not take a set from the Beacons, the defending conference champions who are ranked No. 1 in the New England Women's Volleyball Association's weekly poll. UMB won by set scores of 28-26, 25-20 and 25-23, posting its fifth straight win and improving to 23-2 overall and 6-0 in LEC matches. PSU, which lost to UMB in last season's LEC championship match, dropped to 16-12 overall and 4-2 in conference play.
Thompson recorded 13 kills for the Beacons while Porter added 10 and junior Molly Rattigan (Dorchester, Mass.) chipped in with nine. Thompson also contributed a team-high 12 digs, while sophomore libero Bethany Rossoll (Colorado Springs, Colo.) finished with 10 digs. Junior Casey Hanneman (Denver, Colo.) and sophomore Frana Burtness-Adams (Fairbanks, Alaska) shared setting duties, finishing with 19 and 12 assists, respectively.

Letters to Heaven: To Ben, Love Mom
A Grieving Mom Reaches Out to Others in Heartfelt New Book
Martha Martinez was never able to say her final goodbyes or to tell her son, Ben, one last time how much she loved him. He died suddenly, leaving an inconsolable mother who was facing a difficult grief process. She says, "Memories can trigger buttons that I don't know exist. Songs, smells, seeing someone who resembles my son are all things that trigger memories. Even if they are good memories, it is bittersweet."
In her heartfelt book Letters to Heaven: To Ben, Love Mom, Martinez recounts the story of her son and how others tried to help her through her despair. She learned that only she could help herself, and though the healing can never be complete, healing does come in small increments. When each of us has something to say to those who have left us, we should also send Letters to Heaven.
About the Author: Martha Martinez lives in Des Moines, Iowa, and works in the home daycare profession. She is inspired to write by the healing it provides her, and the hope that her book can help others.

6 Road Safety Changes That Could Save Lives
In Toronto on Monday, councillors ordered a blanket reduction in speed limits from 40 to 30 km/h on local roads in the old cities of Toronto and East York. While this approach may make them feel better, it won't do much to improve road safety or reduce congestion. But, here's six ideas that might:
School and Playground Zones.
Ontario should introduce school and playground speed zone laws as other provinces have. In B.C., for example, speed limits are reduced to 30 km/h in school zones from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on school days. The speed limit near a playground is 30 km/h from dawn to dusk every day. This approach to speed reduction accomplishes two things. First, it makes sense to drivers so is more likely to be obeyed. Second, it requires drivers to have a greater situational awareness: what day is it, what time is it, where am I? This helps make them more likely to avoid an accident in the first place.
Keep Right Except to Pass Law.
Vehicles travelling on Ontario highways should be legally required to travel in the right lane, except when overtaking a slower vehicle or yielding to traffic entering the highway. In Germany, this produces a much more predictable traffic flow and helps reduce accidents.
Zipper Feed-in Law.
This simple law would keep traffic moving more fluidly and reduce driver frustration wherever two or more lanes merge into one, as happens routinely at Toronto's hundreds of construction sites. It works like this: drivers in both lanes move forward to the merging point and then take turns merging into a single lane. It's easy to understand and is the routine practice in Germany because it works.
Eliminate On-Street Parking on downtown streets and major arterials.
This would produce additional lanes for traffic (or bike lanes) and make it easier for drivers to see approaching pedestrians. The Parking Authority should build small off-street parkades every other block to provide as many parking spaces as were removed from the street within reasonable walking distance. A design competition could spark some very innovative, attractive solutions.
Ninety Minutes to Clear Standard.
Washington State and Florida are two of many jurisdictions that have adopted a 90-minute benchmark for clearing accidents on major highways. From the time first responders arrive at a collision, they have 90 minutes to secure the scene, extricate and transport victims, investigate the accident, clear debris, repair the roadway and re-open it to traffic.
Mandatory Driver Training.
It takes only a day or two driving around the GTA to realize far too many drivers are completely ignorant of the rules of the road. These drivers then teach their teenagers the same bad habits. The most important change, that would produce the biggest improvement in road safety, would be to make it mandatory to complete a properly certified, professionally-operated driver training program before receiving an Ontario driver's licence.
Modern driver training should include the type of "cockpit resource management" training pilots receive -- how to safely manage all the devices, instruments and options available in a modern car without becoming dangerously distracted. That's the real cure for distracted driving, not simplistic and over-reaching anti-cell phone laws.
If every Ontario driver had similar training, and we adopted these simple rule changes, our roads would be the safest in North America.
Are you too tired to finish your long drive home? Well, then it's simply a matter of programming your car to continue driving for you while you rest. The car, guided by a system of sensors and cameras, safely gets you to your destination. And fleets of these driverless vehicles could be hitting city streets sooner than you think. Britain has already started testing driverless cars for their inevitable appearance on public roads. They're not the first though — some states in the US have also started testing driverless cars and are passing legislation to suit.
If we can make a car that drives itself, why not make a car that can learn as it drives? Like something out of a sci-fi novel, these cars will be able to take and analyze data about you and predict where you're going before you even point your front wheels in a particular direction. Not only that, but car companies are developing systems that maximize fuel economy and save power by monitoring all electrical systems.
In the near future, while cars monitor themselves, they'll also be monitoring you. Drivers get behind the wheel distracted, tired or even impaired, and that can cause accidents. The University of Leicester is working on a system that uses LED lights to monitor whether a driver is distracted. This means that if the car decides the driver is distracted, it will take precautionary measures to keep the driver and others safe. This could include slowing down, pulling over or even refusing to start. Health-wise, cars will also be able to monitor your body's vitals, and take action should a driver suffer a heart attack or stroke.
Cars have had airbags for decades — on the inside. The next step is external airbags. TRW Automotive, which develops safety technology, is experimenting with external airbags. The concept is that once a collision is detected (see smart cars), the bags would deploy prior to the collision, saving the car, the driver and pedestrians.
No, we're not talking bigger gas tanks. We're talking about turning the car into one big battery, storing either solar or kinetic energy across the entire vehicle. Several European companies are researching ways to turn side panels into extra batteries. The concept is that solar power or power generated by braking would be collected, stored, and used to charge a car's batteries when needed.
Does anyone remember Knight Rider, with K.I.T.T. the talking car? (Did we just date ourselves?) K.I.T.T. helped fight crime and traded clever banter with his driver, but in the future, cars will talk to each other and to the very streets they drive on. Cars will share information about traffic, weather and even their distances from each other with the ultimate goal of increased safety on the roads. The technology hasn't been fully deployed but cars in Ann Arbor, Michigan are currently road-testing the technology as part of a program run by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the University of Michigan.

Joe the starter is the BEST.
averagegolfguy - 11/27/09
Quite disappointed with the pro shop. When I arrived multiple tee times had been booked. I was told that I would tee off at 1 after booking a 12:20. Then found out that people were walking on the course teeing off before me. Not impressed with the course, the staff, or the rangers who did nothing to speed up golf play.
Quite disappointed I spent 50.00 to play here.

Part 2
My parents really aren't that "imaginative". My name is proof: Amelia Robin Hart. I suppose I could have guessed this from my specific name choice alone but no, they've proven it to me in so many other circumstances. Take for instance the time my dad tried to patch the hole in our roof with a handful of thumb tacks and a piece of Mylar. Or the time my mother attempted to home-perm my twin sisters' hair. Or better yet, the fact that their idea of saving living expenses was by selling our comfortable home and buying a stinky, moldy RV for us to live in instead. Evidently, when fate handed out common sense, she either forgot to hand it to my parents or they missed the memo.
I really should have known better then when my parents asked me to babysit Alexis, my youngest sister, that I was in for a doozy of a day.
"We'll only be gone an hour." My mom said adjusting the huge hat on her graying head. "Hopefully your dad will get this promotion."
She winked at me and posed in the full-length mirror attached to their bedroom door. "You ready, hun?"
My dad exited the bathroom, buttoning the cuffs of his white dress shirt. "Nearly."
My mom has a very nice face. Old movie-style quality. I'd like to think that she looks like Audrey Hepburn sometimes but when she piles on so much make up – she looks more like a drag queen instead.
My dad is sharp looking too. He has a strong jaw, hazel-colored eyes, and a thick set of manly eyebrows that could be more mistaken for fuzzy caterpillars. He's a Gene Wilder basically: composed but insane at times. He unfortunately is nearly blind as a bat now and can't see the get-up my mother is wearing. She's wearing a hot pink, one-size-too-big pant suit and is carrying a faded Coach bag.
God, she looked like a train wreck.
"You look just lovely today, honey." My dad said planting a wet kiss on her neck.
If he could only see now.
I'd like to think that my parents were once half-way decent. All the old photographs I look at from time to time give me a glimpse into their lives when I was younger and the economy was better. The lines that now adorn the spaces beneath their eyes aren't visible. My dad is wearing contacts, we can't afford them now, and my mom's sense of fashion isn't the latest thrift-store trend. We were once well together.
My dad slipped into his suit jacket then, completing a now faded black suit he had worn to a family wedding five years ago. He nodded and took a second glance in the mirror.
"Not bad. At least I can still squeeze into it."
I shook my head as I stood from my spot on the end of their bed. The things I could do if we had money for once. Our family would be the old/new kids on the block and not the schleps the cat had just dragged in.
"I left out a box of macaroni and cheese in the kitchen for you and Alexis in case you guys get hungry." My mom said, hurrying towards the door. She smiled at me then, bent down from her platform heels, and gave me a hug. "Just cook on the back burner. The front one isn't working again."
I nodded, waved the two of them out the trailer door, and watched as they piled into the old Volvo with its duct-taped rear bumper and missing back windshield. That's a whole other story I won't get into at this time.
Once they had left, I turned on our little transistor radio to 105.7, Beatles Central, and sat down on the floor next to Alexis. The poor kid is nearly three years old and still hasn't started talking yet. Mom and dad aren't too worried about her. Alexis can communicate with people just fine by using sign language. But I'm worried. She'll be starting pre-school next fall. How is she going to talk with the other kids then?
"Hey, Lexi girl." I said smiling down at the pair of brown eyes looking up at me. "Wanna play tea party?"
She nodded and pulled out the thumb that stayed in her mouth 24/7.
After laying down a red bandanna, I arranged my tea set neatly on the floor and poured some cool-aid into the tiny cups.
"Madam," I said in a stuffy accent, "would you care for one lump or two?"
I indented one finger then two to get my message across to Alexis. In return, she stuck her left thumb back in her mouth and held up two fingers with her other hand.
"As you wish." I said with a courteous nod.
The two of us continued to play tea party until I started getting hungry. It was well past noon by then and mom and dad had been gone nearly two hours. If I knew the two of them well enough, they wouldn't be back for at least another hour.
Alexis followed me into the kitchen, her security blanket dragging behind her, and watched as I set a full pot of water on the stove.
Then I remembered that the front burner wasn't working.
Alexis smiled at me with her thumb in her mouth. Even she knew a cuss word when she heard it. Poor kid. There was a whole world right before her yet she couldn't be a part of it.
I looked down at her and chuckled. "Don't ever sat that word, okay? Only mommy and daddy are allowed to."
She nodded, then pushed a stool up to the stove and stood on top to get a better view.
I slid the pot to the back burner and switched the dial. Nothing. No heat. No spark. Had the back burner stopped working too?
"Now what are gonna do?" I muttered, half to myself but also loud enough for Alexis to hear. She started whining and sat down on the stool in her dirty, pink sleepy sack; resting her back against the oven door.
The microwave was out of the question. You just couldn't cook mac and cheese in there properly unless you bought those microwaveable cups at the grocery store. And no, we weren't eating plain hot dogs again for lunch with no buns. That was a definite no.
So what was I going to do?
Then I had an idea. An uncomfortable idea. I could use my "abnormality" to boil the water.
I'd never ever tried my trick at home. I was always superstitious about getting caught; you know how you get so paranoid about doing something wrong that you usually get caught? But mom and dad wouldn't be home for at least another hour or so and they'd left me no emergency money in dad's Star Trek collector's tin that he usually left in his bathroom cabinet. I check daily for maybe fifty cents to get a Kit Kat at the corner drugstore two minutes down the street. This was the only way the two of us were going to eat that afternoon. I didn't feel like waiting either.
I started snapping my fingers to get the heat going. Little sparks appeared and quickly dissipated. The smell of sulfur came to my nose, strong and pungent. It didn't matter. I'd have the water boiling in five minutes flat. We'd be eating in ten.
Alexis popped up beside me and widened her eyes. Amazingly, she didn't seem the least bit scared; more mesmerized than petrified.
I picked up the pot of water with my right hand then position my left one beneath it. I flicked my wrist and a steady column of fire appeared, licking from the center of my palm.
This was going to work!
I smiled down at Alexis, then turned my eyes back to the flame, concentrating on making it hotter. The heat began to kiss my face and tears began welling up in my eyes. Four more minutes and the water would be boiling. I could already see small bubbles collecting at the bottom and sides of the pan, jumping to the surface of the water. My tongue began to water with the taste of the salty, cream cheese.
Then the curtains above the stove caught fire.

Isreali company Modu is set to launch its modular (get it?) cellphone in October. The Modu is a core device which will be sold along with "jackets", slide on covers which will offer extra functionality. The idea is that you have one device and then customize it depending on what you're doing and where you are. For instance, you can slot it into a computer to load it with music, dock it into a car stereo or slide it into a camera.
Modu has attracted a lot of interest already. It's backed by SanDisk, and Universal Music want to make music jackets for the phone. Not surprising: Modu founder Dov Moran has a pretty good track record. He invented the USB flash drive.
Modu will be showing the device at the GSMA Congress in Barcelona next week, so we'll have the details for you then. In the meantime, check out the promo video on the Modu site.

Currently I have a custom form that generates a Spiceworks Ticket via email and Also creates a PDF of the form and attaches it so that my techs can print out the ticket to keep with the students computer.
Is there a way to accomplish this with plugins and the User Portal? Maybe have it automatically print the "drop off form" when these submit a ticket in the portal?

We use our sharepoint site and keep an ongoing inventory , when a laptop is dropped off we edit our sharepoint report library to show weather it is "in service" or "IS dept: fix" etc...
I'm sure it's not the most fail safe way to do things but I guess it's better than post it notes (which was our previous way of doing things).

After Challenging Year, Femtocells Poised To Make Impact in 2010
In 2009, consumers flocked to the new smartphones hitting the market, and the world's wireless operators felt the pressure to upgrade their networks in response.
2010 will be the year that the carriers – and maybe even consumers – start placing orders for network-boosting products, investors and entrepreneurs say. And among the gizmos that will be in high demand are femtocells, the small base stations that boost coverage.
Long a subject of debate in the telecom world, femtos are poised to become a household word, as some of the barriers to widespread deployment will fall away with the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010.

I would never consider myself a geek but I love to cook and I know today is a great excuse to make Pie after all it is Pi Day! Recently I receiving the new Bite me too cookbook to review, making it a perfect day to try out these new delightful recipes.
I quickly jumped out of bed this morning when the clock rang to start my first pie, yes the "Banoffee Pie" with a crunchy chocolate topping. "As classically British as 007, and a stiff upper lip." Banoffee is a sticky, seductive pie of creamy toffee and slices of sweet banana. This was my first choice out of the Bite me too cookbook.
If you have never tried to make a Banoffee pie, well this sweet and delicious recipe is a must and since it is Pi Day it's a great excuse to indulge!

- Make sure to keep the cans covered in water the whole time.
- To assemble pie pour over cooked condensed milk over prepared crust, spread evenly.

This is just one of the many delicious recipes from the best selling saucy sisters "Julie Albert and Lisa Gnat" new Bite me too cookbook. To check out a review from their first cook book click here.
This is a fabulous cookbook ideal for experienced cooks. I found the recipes and explanations mouth watering but did take some time and care into creating a scrumptious dish. As you can see the Banoffee pie does take a while to make however it's reward will be loved. The extent of the recipes and ingredients due call for some competent cooking skill, if you are an amateur don't let that put you off. The recipes are amazing so take some time to try them out you will be glad you did.
