[NOTE: This entry has been updated (1) as of 1:48 AM Eastern on 25 Sep. See below.]
We've never given the close attention to Wagner's three canonical operas (for none of which have we ever so much as glanced at a score) — Der fliegende Holländer, Tannhäuser, and Lohengrin — that we've given Wagner's music-dramas (with the exception of Die Meistersinger which, while recognizing it as a masterpiece, we've never been able to "connect" with because entirely too sunny and diatonic a work for our tastes and temperament) and have for decades been mildly dismissive of all three calling them Wagner's practice pieces on his way to becoming Wagner. On our recently learning that Anna Netrebko is scheduled to sing the Lohengrin Elsa in Dresden in 2016 (with Thielemann on the podium), we were moved to again listen to the work which we haven't listened to for a great many years and on doing so were struck anew by its remarkable Act II Prelude and first scene which for the first time in Wagner's oeuvre give unmistakably clear intimation of the Wagner to be — specifically, the Wagner of the Ring (that Act II Prelude and first scene is almost a working draft of the Act II Prelude and first scene of Götterdämmerung) — and by a huge blunder by Wagner that, in a single stroke, turned Lohengrin into another German Romantic opera instead of the perfect operatic version of a tragic fairytale of the Hans Christian Andersen sort it could otherwise have been embodying all the profundity that lies at the heart of all great fairytales: Wagner had Lohengrin not only fall in love with Elsa, the woman he was sent to save, but actually marry her — a double-whammy blunder that shows a Wagner still a fair way off from becoming Wagner. So, why is it a huge blunder? Because it instantly transforms Lohengrin, a divinely charged and empowered personage, into an ordinary (if extraordinarily noble and brave) human being with all the presumptive foibles native to the species. More Wagnerian would it have been to have Elsa unrequitedly in love with Lohengrin and ultimately come to realize that such a love is tragically impossible of fulfillment or consummation and must of necessity be unrequited and rebuked and conclude with her dreams brought to an end by Lohengrin's ineluctable departure and return to Monsalvat and the Grail, that departure and return untimely brought about and hastened by her betrayal of her vow to never question Lohengrin as to his name, lineage, or from whence he came. That's the profound stuff of great fairytales. What the still-not-yet- Wagner Wagner gave us instead is but the sentimental stuff of conventional opera.
Update (1:48 AM Eastern on 25 Sep): We've received a number of eMails pointing out that Wagner intended the Lohengrin-Elsa falling in love thing to evoke the Zeus-Semele myth and that the Eros-Psyche myth is another parallel. We're perfectly aware of all this but maintain our above expressed opinion nevertheless. It's our position that Wagner's idea here was both ill-conceived and ill-executed as drama. Wagner set his Lohengrin tale against a real-world German-historical background and was even compulsively insistent on historical accuracy in the settings and costumes and then attempted to insinuate centrally that which belongs entirely to the fantastic world of myth and fairytale and, in our less than humble opinion, managed the merger quite clumsily. What he ended up with as consequence was neither fish nor fowl but a German Romantic opera with its supernatural component distorted and crudely integrated dramatically. As we've above suggested, Lohengrin is, after all, but a practice work by Wagner on his way to becoming Wagner.

Is Tim Pawlenty's experience enough?
posted at 4:49 pm on June 20, 2012 by Libby Sternberg
This is a tale of two vice presidential candidates.
Both are governors. Both ran for and won local races in their states. One served a term on a city council, then won two terms as a mayor, becoming president of the state's mayors' conference before a successful statewide run for chief executive. The other served ten years in the state legislature before becoming governor. Both have significant achievements on their gubernatorial resumes. In total, one's public service clocks in at around 12 years while the other's public service at the time of the veep vetting adds up to about 14 years.
But the year I'm writing about is not 2012. It's 2008, and by now, you might have guessed that one candidate was Sarah Palin. The other? Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, who had also been considered as a running mate to John McCain four years ago.
Palin served one term on the Wasilla City Council and two three-year terms as the city's mayor before her successful run for governor. While that experience was often mocked—or, at the least, sneered at—Tim Pawlenty's similar local-yokel stint in the Minnesota state legislature before his successful run for governor was never seriously questioned as being too parochial or not adding up to enough experience for someone aspiring to be vice president.
Yes, Palin's Alaska is small. With its 722,718 residents, it shows up as number 47 on the list of states by population, while Pawlenty's Minnesota , with its 5,344,861 souls, sits at number 21. So one could argue that their executive experiences as governors were entirely different. But do you know what state is number 45, just two above Alaska? That would be Delaware, with 907,135 residents, the state from which our current vice president hails.
So, if state population governed/served isn't a part of the "experience" equation, shouldn't we be as concerned about Pawlenty's meager experiences as we were about Palin's? Sure, he has a few more years as governor under his belt now, but his recent unsuccessful bid for the presidency was a little cringe-inducing, don't you think? Shouldn't the party leaders, conservative pundits, men whose names rhyme with Schteve Schmidt, be gnashing their teeth and rending their garments at the possibility of his selection as Romney's running mate? Good grief, what if some reporter asks Pawlenty what he reads every day? What on earth will he say?
But that's the point – no one will be asking Tim Pawlenty what he reads should he be chosen as a vice presidential running mate for Mitt Romney. They'll assume he reads newspapers, magazines, blogs, books, cereal boxes and even the FBI warnings on DVDs because…well, because he's a guy. And we all know guys are more experienced and smarter and wiser and just gosh-darned better at everything. I mean, look at our current vice president—he has years and years of plagiarism, wrong policy decisions, speaking gaffes experience. It's reassuring to think such a man is just one heartbeat away from…
Excuse me, I had to run and take an antacid pill.
This trip down memory lane was triggered by the recent posts about Pawlenty possibly being on the short list for a Mitt Romney running mate now. It presents a "teachable moment" about the higher standards that apply to women candidates…on the Republican side of the aisle at least, something Allapundit cited in an update to a piece on the veepstakes, referencing a First Read article by Michael O'Brien:
"I think, unfortunately, Palin poisoned the well on that (choosing a woman)," said one informal Romney adviser, fretting that any woman selected as VP would draw inevitable comparisons to the former Alaska governor. "I would guess if I were inside the Romney mind that they're worried that any woman chosen will be subjected to a higher level of scrutiny. "
But Palin didn't "poison the well" on anything, and she shouldn't be used as a reason to keep qualified women off any lists. She ended up providing a tremendous boost to the McCain campaign, drawing crowds and excitement that were lacking in his efforts before her selection. She had a wonderful folksy style people could relate to, and she happened to be particularly knowledgeable about an issue of great importance—energy policy. Yes, she had flaws—just as other vice presidential candidates have had since there were V.P. candidates. But her imperfections were highlighted, analyzed and even ridiculed well beyond the norm.
No, if anyone did any "poisoning" at all, it was the eager crowd of media and political apparatchiks (both liberal and conservative) who held an attractive, conservative woman to a different standard than the one by which they measured those in the "boys club," including the current occupant of Number One Observatory Circle.

PowerShot S90
The most interesting new model is the S90, a welcome return for a popular series of advanced compact cameras that has been dormant since the PowerShot S80 in 2004.
The S90 contains essentially the same internal components and has most of the same features as the new G11, but in a much more compact and portable form. It measures 100.0 x 58.4 x 30.9 mm and weighs 175g minus battery, but includes a super-fast f/2.0-4.9 3.8x zoom lens equivalent to 28-105mm, a large1/1.7-inch 10-megapixel CCD sensor and a 3.0-inch 461k fixed monitor.
The camera has a number of innovative features including a unique rotary control around the lens barrel that can be set to control any one of a number of camera functions including focusing, ISO setting, white balance, exposure compensation or zoom.
The pop-up flash is powered, popping up when the camera is switched on and back down again when it is switched off, although unlike the SX200 IS it doesn't pop up if flash is set to forced off.
The PowerShot S90 will be hitting the shops from early October priced at a substantial £449. It is, of course, only available in black. It'll be interesting to compare the S90 with the Panasonic LX3, a camera with a similar mission and a not-too-dissimilar specification.

23. Sankhārapaccayā viññānam, as we now see, can be taken to mean that any specific series of sankhāra-sankhatadhamma pairs (one or more) of which the first contains viññāna is dependent upon the very fact that there are sankhārā at all. Avijjāpaccayā sankhārā will then mean that the very fact that there are sankhārā at all is dependent upon avijjā; and with cessation of avijjā—avijjānirodhā—all sankhārā whatsoever will cease—sankhāranirodho. This is perhaps most simply stated in the lines from the Vinaya Mahāvagga:
Ye dhammā hetuppabhavā
Tesam hetum Tathāgato āha
Tesañ ca yo nirodho
Evamvādī mahāsamano.
Of things originating with conditions,
The Tathāgata has told the condition,
And what their cessation is.
The Great Recluse speaks thus.
Here, Ye dhammā hetuppabhavā are all things whatsoever that depend upon hetū ('conditions'—synonymous with paccayā). Since each of these things depends upon its respective hetu (as in any paticcasamuppāda formulation), it shares the same fate as its hetu—it is present when the hetu< is present, and absent when the hetu is absent. Thus the hetu of them taken as a whole (all things that are hetuppabhavā) is no different from the hetu of their individual hetū taken as a whole. When there are hetū at all there are hetuppabhavā dhammā, when there are no hetū there are no hetuppabhavā dhammā; and hetū, being nothing else than sankhārā, have avijjā as condition. Tesam hetum ('their condition'), therefore, is avijjā. To see the Dhamma is to see paticcasamuppāda (as noted in §7), and avijjā is therefore non-seeing of paticcasamuppāda. Avijjāpaccayā sankhārā will thus mean 'paticcasamuppāda depends upon non-seeing of paticcasamuppāda'. Conversely, seeing of paticcasamuppāda is cessation of avijjā, and when paticcasamuppāda is seen it loses its condition ('non-seeing of paticcasamuppāda') and ceases. And this is cessation of all hetuppabhavā dhammā. Thus tesam yo nirodho is cessation of avijjā.

Interactive Pajamas Tell Bedtime Stories
Smart PJ's interact with smartphones to read bedtime stories for kids.
Pajamas are being brought into the 21st century. For kids, at least.
Fresh off Boise's 'Hottest Showcasing Startup,' Smart PJ's adds technological innovation to a product that hasn't seen a breakthrough since the addition of a flap to the back of the onesie. Now, in addition to keeping kids snug, pajamas can also read a bedtime story.
Smart PJ's are designed with a series of scannable dot patterns that can interact with smart devices. Once scanned, children and parents alike can enjoy a bedtime story being read from a smartphone. The Smart PJ's are designed with a wide array of scannable patterns, which allows for the pattern on the sleeve to read a different story than the pattern on the stomach.
In addition to reading the story, the Smart PJ's stories are designed to display the words and information on the screen as well. This allows children to turn down the volume and work on their reading skills, or share a traditional story in a non-traditional way with their parents.
Check out the website (where you can order a pair for $25) and the video below:

Ceiling insulation for cooling
I want to air condition my garage, how important will the ceiling insulation be in keeping the space cool? I usually see recomendations for ceiling insulation with much higher R values than for walls. I wonder if that is the recommendation for heating only.
Proper insulation is critical when determing heating and cooling loads. In general, the more insulation you have the better off you'll be, but at some point you reach a "diminishing point of return", where the extra money spent on insulation won't really pay you back in terms of comfort or energy savings.
Ceilings typically have more insulation than walls for several reasons, not the least of which is you only have a small cavity to work with in a wall (i.e. 4 inches for a 2x4 wall, 6 inches for a 2x6, etc). Ceiling spaces are typically only sided on one side (the ceiling sheetrock, for example) and are open on the other side, which means you can put much more insulation there than you can in a wall cavity.
Of course there are many new insulation techniques, like the insulating foam, that can be used in walls to increase the R values. IMO, insulate as best you can now, before you begin covering things up. It's a LOT cheaper to do it now than it would be to do it later.
Higher insulation R value in the ceiling applies for both heating and cooling. The ceiling temp in heating mode is higher then at the walls, so the ceiling transfer heat to the attic quicker then the walls will to the outside. In summer, the attic is much hotter then the outside temp, and will transfer more heat in the building space.
A 16X32 garage with no insulation in the ceiling can have a heat gain of 28,160 BTUs an hour. With an insulation value of R29, that heat gain would only be 971 BTUs an hour.
The walls are uninsulated and the door is not either, and has a 1" gap along the top. I'll have the A/C on maybe from noon to 8 pm. I have 10' ceiling so my thought was to get the bottom 6' of the garage cool and not worry so much about above that. Then address the door issues.
That door will act as one big heating or cooling register.
It's as simple as using constrution adhesive made for foam to attach some foam to the back side of the door.
Make sure you have all your wiring in place the way you want it before insulating or sheetrocking.
If you do go with fiberglass insulation you can not leave it exposed if it's paper faced, It's a fire hazard.
Is it attached to the house?
If so your going to have to have 5/8 fire code drywall where it touches the house.
Without insulation in the ceiling, it will radiate heat down. And cost more to cool for those few hours, then your house does.
beenthere, "garage with no insulation in the ceiling can have a heat gain of 28,160 BTUs an hour." So a finished garage with 4 walls could have a 28,160 x 5 = 140,800 btu loss? I'd need 12 tons of air conditioner to cool a two car garage!! That's 18 window units!!!
Maybe more, what with golbal warming and all...
When first building a home in the winter time after the windows go in and the home is dryed in we can start to run heaters.
They have to run full bore just to get above 60 deg. sometimes.
Just by adding the sheetrock and insulation in the ceiling makes such a huge differance in temp. we can shut the heaters off.
That's even before anythings up on the walls.
Spent yesterday insulating the garage attic with R-13 batts, It did help some, was 89 deg without insulation, is now 85 deg with it. Not the 26,000 BTU gain I was expecting though.
What zone are you in.
If you Google "insulation zone" it would have told you how much insulation you would have needed. Unless you in the deep south sound pretty light.
Is your roof vented?
Did you seal up all the holes where the wiring was run and seal around any light fixtures in the ceiling?
It's going to take a whole to cool things down, everything in the garage is still putting out heat.
R-13 should stop something like 93% of btu loss through the ceiling. For the walls, I only have sheetrock, air space, wrapper and hardiplank, not much I can do to that.
Steel double garage door is my next target. I was going to try an Insulfoam garage door kit but when I went to Lowes I saw some of their 1/2" foam board with an aluminum-looking material (radiant barrier?) on one side. Would this be a good plan for the door: glue some 1/2" strips to each panel, then cut and fit the foam board in place so the aluminum is 1/2" off the door.
Or just go with Insulfoam, it has good reviews.
Insulation slows down heat transfer, it does not stop it.
What was the outdoor temp when it was 89 in the garage, and what was the outdoor temp when it was 85 in the garage.
Cellulose insulation can be blown into the wall cavities.
Outside temp was 96 though more like 93 in the garage at noon. Attic is vented, it was hot up there but not so hot I couldn't lay the fiberglass batts.
I am writing this at 3 AM - can't now sleep for the itching.
As the garage cools down over night, it should be a bit better later today, as far as not gaining as much heat. But the walls are still allowing lot of heat to be transferred into the garage. The blow in insulation would help that a lot. It comes down to do you want to pay a lot of money for insulating, or for heating and cooling.

Uh Oh…My Check Engine Light Is On
So you come out to start your car one morning and the Check Engine light on the dashboard comes on…and doesn't go back off again. You can't really notice any difference in the way the car runs and drives, but it's on anyway.
What does it mean?
Since the late 80s, most engine functions have been controlled by a central drivetrain computer. This includes emissions controls, fuel metering and delivery, ignition timing, shift points and many other elements of drivability and performance. The drivetrain computer relies on information from a chain of sensors that monitor exhaust composition, camshaft position, throttle position and many other factors.
The voltage readings from any of these sensors are supposed to fall within a certain range. When ...[more]

Questions You Shouldn't Be Afraid to Ask Your Auto Repair Tech
Often, drivers are mystified by how their cars actually work. It's to be expected. Even an older car is a complex machine with many sub-assemblies that all work together to move it down the road.
As a result, drivers tend to be a little intimidated by auto repair and often tend to not inform themselves by asking the necessary questions of a tech or a garage. Too often, that ends up being a big mistake. Here are some examples of the kinds of things you really should know before any auto repair work starts:
- Does your shop work on any kind of vehicle? Of course, most shops can service a product from GM, Ford, Chrysler, Nissan, Toyota and the other leading makes. Some makes, however, require a lot more training and experience, o ...[more]
9 Tips for your Spring Vehicle Checkup
The temperatures are inching upward, the days are getting longer and the first buds are starting to appear on the trees. Spring is on its way, and soon it's going to be time to do a little preventive maintenance on your ride. No need to dread it -- it's all pretty routine stuff!
- Air filter - If you haven't changed your air filter since last year (or can't remember when you changed it at all), it might be time. It's an easy and cheap fix, and it pays off in your vehicle's performance and fuel economy.
- Cabin filter - Older vehicles often don't have a cabin filter, but it can make a lot of difference in how pleasant your vehicle is to drive. Stale, smelly air? Change it!

4 Budget Friendly Ways to Improve Mom's Ride
Six Hot Tips on Cool Air Conditioning
Summer is here, and it's time to start thinking about your car's AC system! Nobody likes driving around in a hot, stuffy car, and a car with an AC system which only works marginally is somehow almost even worse than one which doesn't work at all. Let's go through a few tips which can help you keep your ride a little more comfortable this summer…
Remember a cars AC system is really a heat exchanger which moves hot air out of your vehicle, then replaces it with cold air. One thing you can do to help improve its efficiency is to leave your windows down an inch or two (if possible) when you park the car, helping to prevent excess heat buildup. When you start the car and begin to drive off, lower all the windows for the first minute or two to help move hot air out of the car more quickly, giving the AC system a chanc ...[more]

Emergency health kits capable of providing assistance to 30,000 people for up to one month have been rushed into the quake-affected areas of Sichuan province in China by the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO).
One hundred satellite terminals have been deployed to provide accurate coordination of relief and rescue operations by the UN International Telecommunication Union (ITU), as UN aid agencies continue their humanitarian efforts.
State media report that over 41,000 people lost their lives as a result of the massive temblor on 12 May, which measured 7.8 on the Richter scale. Some 32,000 people are missing, while more than 250,000 others have sustained injuries. Roughly 5 million people have been left homeless.
ITU said the 100 mobile satellite terminals they are supplying are easily transported by road and air and can be used by both humanitarian workers and quake victims.
I would like to assure the Government that ITU is ready to provide expertise in carrying out telecommunication network damage assessments aimed at paving the way for the rehabilitation of the damaged telecommunications structure, said Sami Al Basheer Al Morshid, Director of ITUs Telecommunication Development Bureau.
The hand-held Thuraya satellite phones use both satellite and GSM networks and can provide accurate GPS coordinates to support relief and rescue efforts.

Rhode Island's new graduation requirements are the subject of a proposal on Smith Hill. Some lawmakers and community groups are looking to ban the use of standardized test scores as a graduation requirement. They are filling legislation that would make it a violation of state law to use a test score to stop a student from graduating.

Last week I spent a few hours with a classroom of RISD students who were struggling with a question I often ask myself- how to make health care reform understandable?
Every Friday, Dan McGowan breaks down who's rising and who's falling in the world of Rhode Island politics. Check out who makes the list this week.


text: I was lucky enough to catch Sonny Rollins and his terrific group–including Bobby Broom–closing this year's Newport Jazz Festival. What a performance! Sonny played with the vigor of a 20-something and of course with the mastery of his 77 years. Having been listening to and enjoying Sonny's music for about 50 years, I can die happy having experienced him in person (and I have great photos to aid my memory too). The whole Newport weekend was terrific, and the Rollins band's performance was a thrilling capstone. Kudos to all!

The methodology behind our Fantasy Baseball Player Rater is known as Point Shares. Point Shares are the estimated difference in a team's points if they were to substitute a given player for the average player at his position. Two players can be compared against each other – e.g., substituting Cliff Lee for Zack Greinke in a 12 team league would mean an average change of about 8 points in the standings (8.48 for Cliff Lee, 0.59 for Greinke).

Broadband Dropouts
This page is about disconnections for ADSL/Broadband and ADSL2+/Broadband2+ connections. Satellite users, please contact our Technical Support Team for further assistance.
Why is my connection dropping out?
There are many reasons why your ADSL/Broadband connection may drop out. This article describes some of the most common causes of disconnections - the main culprit being problems relating to Filtering. Diagnosing the cause behind dropouts can be quite a time consuming process. For the fastest resolution, you may wish to contact our Technical Support Team.
Before you begin, if you have only recently noticed the problem, try switching your modem off for 30 seconds and then switching it back on. Your modem may have simply locked up, and if so this should resolve it.
- Filtering
- How Do I Plug In A Filter?
- Isolation Test
- Checking Your Disconnection History
- Line Noise
- Phone Cabling and Phone Socket
- Wireless Dropouts
- Testing Your Modem
- Further Troubleshooting
Any devices that are located in your house/premises that connect up to any phone socket at all, need to put plugged into what is called a Line Filter (1). There are 3 common types of line filters, pictured below:
(1: the only exception is if you have a separate phone line physically installed - this will generally have its own phone number and have its own line rental charge).
The reason why every device needs to be filtered, is because the signal from your ADSL modem and other telephone devices will eventually be combined once they leave your house. ADSL uses a higher range of frequencies than other telephony devices. The other devices are unable to distinguish from one or the other and subsequently will pick up the higher ADSL frequencies. If the signals have not been filtered, then they will cause the Broadband connection to disconnect frequently, create noise over your phone calls, and may even render your internet connection unusable at times.
Please Note that ADSL modems do not need to be filtered. The "ADSL" socket is not actually filtered, and merely there to provide double adaptor functionality in case you need to plug two devices in to the same phone socket.
A common misconception is that only telephones need to be filtered. This is incorrect - below are a list of devices that commonly connect up to a phone socket that will cause disconnections. Many (including telephones) monitor for an incoming signal, and will still cause disconnections, even when you are not using them.
- Cordless phones
- Fax Machines
- EFTPOS Terminals
- Monitored Alarm Systems / Back To Base Alarm Systems (2)
- Foxtel Digital / PAY TV Systems
- Dial-up modems
(2: If you have one of these, you may have what is called a central splitter installed. Please consult your alarm company.)
If you are unsure if devices you own (for example, if you have an Alarm System) will need to be filtered, check the device and see if it connects up to a phone socket. If it does, then it will need a filter on it. Many Foxtel systems, for example, will only have a Satellite dish connection and thus not require a filter. However, if your Foxtel/Pay TV offers content on delivery services, these typically connect up to a telephone socket, which will require a filter.
If you have any of these devices, and they do not have a filter plugged in to them: You will need to purchase a filter to plug the device in to. These can be purchased from most electronics stores, as well as our Sales team.
How Do I Plug In A Filter?
See the Broadband ADSL Filter Setup article for further detail.
A filter will typically have a "Line In" socket on one side, as well as a "Phone" and in some cases "ADSL" socket on the other side. Plug your device into the "phone" socket, and then run a cord from the "Line" socket to your telephone point on your wall. Remember that ADSL modems do not need to be filtered, and if you plug your ADSL modem into a "Phone" socket on the filter, this will also cause disconnections. Only plug your modem in to the ADSL socket of a filter if you intend on plugging another device (e.g. Telephone) into the filter. Never plug it into the phone or line sockets.
Isolation Test
If you have all your devices in your house filtered, the problem may still be with your filters. Filters naturally wear out over time, and may be subject to surges over the phone line as well. In order to determine whether your filters are the problem, it is recommended you do an isolation test.
An isolation test involves unplugging all devices that connect up to a telephone point in your house. It allows us to determine whether dropouts are being caused by ADSL filters not functioning correctly. It is recommended that you do isolation tests overnight, to avoid any inconvenience from having your phone disconnected.
To perform the isolation test, do the following:
- Unplug all devices that connect up to a phone socket in your house. This includes any devices in the list above.
- Unplug any filters from your ADSL modem.
- Plug your ADSL modem straight into a telephone socket in the wall, preferably with the shortest possible cable.
- At this stage, the only thing plugged into a telephone socket in your house will be your modem.
- If your modem's telephone cord runs through a surge protector, unplug this as well.
- Note down the time you started the isolation test, and leave your line isolated for at least several hours (overnight if possible).
- Once you have done that, log in to Westnet's MyAccount using your Westnet username and password.
Line Noise
Another common cause of ADSL/Broadband dropouts is line noise. Pick up your telephone handset and listen for any static/crackling. If you can hear anything significantly audible, you will need to contact your telephone provider to lodge a phone fault with them. Please note that they will generally require you to test a corded phone handset with different phone cabling before allowing you to submit the fault.
Phone Cabling and Phone Socket
The phone cable that runs from your modem to your wall socket may also wear out over time. If it is particularly long (usually in excess of 10 meters), it may also cause disconnections. Try another shorter phone cable, and see if you still disconnect following this.
If you have any additional phone sockets in your house, try plugging your modem into them and see if you are still getting disconnected.
Wireless Dropouts
If you are using a Wireless Modem or Router, please see this article to determine if your dropouts are related to your wireless modem.
Testing Your Modem
Modems can also begin to malfunction over time. The easiest way to determine whether your modem is at fault is to test another modem at your location. If you do not have easy access to another modem, perform a Factory Reset on your current modem first (see below).
Factory Reset
A Factory Reset will restore your modem to default "factory" settings. In some situations, if the modem has become faulty, a factory reset may help fix the problem. Please Note: Factory resetting your modem will erase your Westnet username and password from your modem. You will not be able to connect up to the internet until you put them back into your modem. This can be a difficult process, and varies greatly depending on the model. It is recommended you contact our Technical Support Team for assistance with this. If you are confident to do this yourself, there should be a small pinhole located on the back of your modem. Insert a pin/pen/sharp object into this for about 10 seconds, and proceed to put your Westnet Settings in the modem, and check for disconnections after this.
Trying Another Modem
It is recommended that you use an old modem, or borrow a spare modem from a friend/family to confirm that the problem is with your modem before committing to buying a new one. If the disconnections stop, it is likely that your other modem is at fault. Again, contact our Technical Support Team if you need assistance with setting up the modem. Make sure you perform an Isolation Test on this modem as well.
Further Troubleshooting
If your ADSL/Broadband connection still disconnects frequently, please contact Westnet Technical Support for further investigation. Advanced users may wish to try some of the following suggestions:
- Set the modulation to "G.DMT" in the modem.
- Change the modem's encapsulation to something different, for example if it is currently set to PPPoE, change it to PPPoA.
- Set the modem to Bridge mode, create a Bridged dialer in Windows and connect. If your connection holds steady in bridge mode, then the modem is likely at fault. Bridge modem defers the handling of the broadband connection over to the computer, so if your connection holds while the modem is bridged we can tell the problem is likely with the modem. If you're not sure how to do this, please contact us for a hand.

{by} Sasha | Crows' Feet, Cupcakes, and Cellulite
This past weekend beauty guru Joey Maalouf was a hot item at Dallas Galleria's Beauty Live event and rightfully so as he's one of Hollywood's hottest stylists! When Joey's not busy being go-to stylist and BFF to Rachel Zoe, he's in high demand to help get celebs red carpet ready and has first-hand knowledge of the latest beauty buzz. So as Savvy Texas Magazine's Beauty Editor, I was thrilled to sit down with him and pick his brain on a bevy of hair and beauty topics, including Rachel Zoe's infamous, signature waves. Here's our beauty-packed Q&A:
Crows' Feet, Cupcakes, and Cellulite: Joey, your job is a dream job! How did you first get into hair and makeup?
Joey Maalouf: I grew up in a household of hair and makeup. It ran in my family. My dad's youngest brother was a hair stylist and my mom's sister owned a barbershop. And my three older brothers are all in the industry. My first childhood memory is of my brothers dressing my younger sister up and playing photo shoot (laughs)!
CCC: And you immediately knew then it was your calling?
JM: I just think it [his profession] chose me. I remember the first time I did someone's makeup. I was fifteen years old and I was like 'oh, this is it!' It was the beginning of my career.
CCC: So what's a typical "day in the life" of Joey Maalouf? I envision non-stop glamour and cutting-edge beauty and fashion. Details, please!
JM: It's normal to me so it's funny that you say that (he laughs), but definitely my whole life revolves around hair and makeup and clothes, celebrated people and red carpet events. It's fun and feels totally natural.
CCC: Sort of like an off-duty doctor constantly gets asked for medical advice, do you get hit up all the time for hair and makeup expertise?
JM: For sure (laughs)!
CCC: Ok, I'm going to try to restrain myself from asking what you think about my hair!
JM: It's like, people say to me 'I just got my haircut…what do you think of it' and then I'm like'ummm, let me go get my scissors.' And then I'm hacking away at their hair!
CCC: Regardless of age, what's the biggest makeup mistake women make?
JM: When they look at a photograph they love, they don't take it as an inspiration, they take it literal. So if you want a crazy cat-eye, like the Burberry ad, which is on a ten-year-old model, that look can actually look amazing on you, you just have to tweak it to make it work for your face, your hair color, and eye color. You definitely have to wear makeup with confidence and I think a person should wear nothing if they don't know what they're doing versus going over-board and doing too much. Edit everything down! So, wear four pounds of mascara but nothing else and you'll look amazing.
CCC: Any other makeup or hair don'ts we gals need to stop committing?
JM: I don't really like don'ts because I think anything can look good on anyone; it's just a matter of tweaking it to make it work for you. But the major don'ts are: 1) Never have bad skin. 2) Never have chapped lips. I'm obsessed with healthy skin!
CCC Let's talk hair! What are your favorite hair trends right now?
JM: I love a really tight, slicked-back ponytail. It's humidity-proof and I think there's something really glamorous and effortless about it because if you throw on a red lip with it you could put a gown on and look dressed up. And if you wear a leather jacket and some cut-off shorts, you could still look amazing going to the grocery store. So, think about wearing a slicked-back pony to work with your normal work clothes. And then when you get home and only have 10 minutes to get ready, what do you do? You put your dressier clothes on, you tease the ponytail and then you wrap it around and stick three pins in it and then you have an updo. The work's all done!
CCC: Okay, seriously…what's the real secret to Rachel Zoe's gorgeous waves? Can us mere mortals get those waves?
JM: Anyone can have them! Any hair texture. If you have straight hair, sleep with your hair wet in pig-tailed braids, so when you wake up you have a perfect wave. And then just break it up with a curling iron by taking sections of hair and wrapping it around the iron. (And you only need to take three or four pieces on each side as well as the front pieces). When you have naturally wavy hair, I always love to keep the top straight (whether you want to blow dry that part straight or when you're sleeping use a scarf to wrap the top part), keeping the middle wavy. Then take a flatiron to the ends of it.
CCC: Favorite hair product every gal should have/try?
JM: Sea Salt spray is amazing for wavy hair. What I love about it is I love wavy hair to be matte and straight hair to be extremely shiny. So, I think Sea Salt spray is amazing for body and holding the shape of a wave. I would say that my all-time favorite hair product is L'Oreal Paris Elnett Hairspray. The more you spray, the more hold you get, the less you spray, the more movement you get. You can do so much with it. It's the only product I think I can't live without.
CCC: All right, what hair product would you recommend for Texans trying to combat crazy humidity?
JM: I definitely think that you should use a heat-protectant shine spray and put it on when your hair's wet. Because then when you're blow-drying your hair, it seals it in, as opposed to putting it on last…then it doesn't really soak in. When you're blow drying and your hair is damp, that dampness is moving the product around when you're brushing it and it really seals it in.
CCC: Any new makeup products you're totally loving?
JM: Ummm, yes! If you ever came to my apartment, it's like a makeup store! My new latest obsession is a metallic colored liquid eyeliner! I think it's so subtle. Make Up For Ever makes the most amazing liners and they're waterproof, so they don't move. And just do a little line along the lash line. It could even be a bright turquoise. It looks fresh and modern without being overboard.
CCC: What's your top beauty must?
JM: Face oil is really important and most people don't know about it. I use it everyday. Face oil actually moisturizes the skin. Rodin makes a good face oil.
CCC: Okay, face oil! Even for people who worry about acne?
JM: 100%! I think people get acne because their skin is actually dry and they are trying to get rid of the acne by drying it even more and in reality you need to be putting more moisture into your skin. You can use face oil in conjunction with your daily moisturizer or even alternate between the two. Face oil moisturizes your skin and your daily moisturizer actually locks in the moisture that you already have in your skin.
CCC: Any other beauty tips?
JM: DON'T over-tweeze your eyebrows!
CCC: Besides Rachel's blog what are some of your fave beauty and fashion blogs?
JM: The Zoe Report is definitely my favorite and now we have the Zoe Beautiful and Accesszoeries sections! I also love StyleCaster. I'm a contributing writer for them. They're really a fun fashion blog.
CCC: What makeup and hair trends can we expect to see this spring?
JM: I love pastel eye shadows right now and a pastel cheek, in a light lavender or baby-pink tone. Especially when you have paler skin. For hair, there's a lot of slicked-back hair, whether it's in a ponytail or down. Straight hair is making its way back in too. So we're seeing less of a messy wave.
CCC: What new projects can we expect from you? Any books or hair product lines on the horizon?
JM: Oh my gosh, I'm totally going to do everything! All of the above. And the way my life works, they'll probably all launch at the same time!

The official bio of Portland State University women's basketball coach Sherri Murrell ends with, "Murrell and her partner, Rena Shuman, welcomed twins Halle Jane and Rylan Patrick into their family on February 24, 2009." No big deal, except for this: There are 345 women's basketball head coaches in Division I. When Murrell identified herself as gay with that description, she joined exactly no one on the list of coaches who had previously come out.
"It is kind of comical," says the 42-year-old, who brings her Vikings to the University of Montana's Adams Center Thursday night. "Because there are a lot of lesbian coaches in this business."
Even as the country fitfully accepts gay marriage, the sports world lags behind, and not just in men's locker rooms.
"I think there's a tendency to say, 'Well, of course we know there are lesbian coaches and lesbian basketball players,'" says author and academic Pat Griffin, who writes the LGBT Sport Blog. "But the truth is, there's still plenty of homophobia in women's sports, and real reasons why a lot of coaches are afraid to come out. There aren't many people actually in the profession who are willing to try to make a difference."

- Sherri Murrell, coach of the Portland State University women's basketball team, stands out as the only openly gay coach in Division I. The Vikings play the University of Montana at the Adams Center Thursday night.
A former all-West Coast Conference point guard for Pepperdine University, Murrell wasn't always open about her sexuality.
"I have lived [in the closet], and I don't ever want to go back there," she says.
It wasn't until she met Shuman after becoming head coach at Washington State in 2002 that she came out to her parents. Professionally, she still wasn't ready.
"It was fear of the unknown," Murrell says. "Fear of negative recruiting. Fear of job loss. Fear of people treating you differently."
Shuman remembers being at Cougar functions where boosters would try to fix Murrell up with their male relatives. It was an unhappy situation for them both, further complicated by a struggling Cougars team. When Murrell resigned in 2007, it was as much about resetting her personal priorities as anything relating to basketball. How could she continue trying to teach young women to be themselves if she wasn't doing the same?
"The one thing that I always wanted from my coaches was for them to be honest with me," Murrell says. "I made a pact with myself that there was absolutely no way that I was going put my partner or my family in that situation again."
In May 2007, Murrell and Shuman moved to Portland, where both of them are from. They were unemployed, but confident in where—and who—they wanted to be. In what now seems fated, the PSU job opened up weeks later.
For two years, Murrell quietly went about her business as the country's sole openly gay D-1 basketball coach.
"I didn't go into the locker room and say, 'Okay, I'm your new head coach and I'm gay,'" she says. "I just lived my life."
If anybody asked, she told them, but as a coach, she pretty much just talked about coaching. Then, in May 2009, she saw the documentary Training Rules, which tells the story of the homophobic Penn State coach Rene Portland. (The film's title came from Portland's unofficial policy of "no drinking, no drugs, no lesbians.") After a former player sued the school—the case was settled out of court—Portland stepped down in 2007.
During the post-screening question-and-answer session, co-director Dee Mosbacher mentioned that as far as she knew, there was not a single "out" lesbian basketball coach in the country. When Mosbacher was told this wasn't so, the audience in the sold-out Portland theater gave Murrell a standing ovation.
"That night made me realize what a big thing it was," she says.
Since then, Murrell has appeared at showings of Training Rules in San Francisco and the Women's Final Four, recorded a bonus feature interview for the DVD, and fielded a barrage of interview requests. During the team's run to the NCAA tournament—they beat Montana State for last year's automatic Big Sky berth—she didn't say yes to all of them, because she wanted the focus to be on the court. But, she says, "I know what I'm doing can open doors for a lot of people."
As for the effect of Murrell's sexual orientation on recruiting, she says colleagues have privately suggested being open is a plus: unscrupulous rivals are better off whispering about coaches who are in the closet. And if a player or their parents care that Murrell's gay, that player probably isn't someone she wants on her squad anyway.
"Sports are about coming together as a team," she says. "Any type of separators—religious separators, ethnic separators, gender separators—doesn't bring cohesiveness."
As for the players themselves, members of a generation that grew up with multiculturalism and Heather Has Two Mommies, they simply don't care.
"I didn't really know that she was the only [out coach]," says senior center Courtney Cremer. "We don't really talk about it. Rena was around from day one, so I feel like from day one we all knew. It feels normal."
Which is just as Murrell wants it as her Vikings try to get back to the Big Dance. By default, Murrell is trying to become the first out coach to win an NCAA tournament game—but really, she just wants to win that game.
"To be able to do that and to be an out coach, that would mean a lot for our sport," she says.
And what would really be a tribute to her trailblazing is when the second openly gay coach wins one.

Dick Durbin titled, "'Stand Your Ground Laws': Civil Rights and Public Safety Implications of the Expanded Use of Deadly Force." Present were several witnesses who attacked not only SYG laws, but also the Right-to-Carry, and even the American jury system. An overarching theme of the testimony alluded that Americans are too prejudiced to be trusted to exercise their right to self-defense. Thankfully, there were some witnesses who stood on the side of freedom and defended the right to self-defense against the divisive and inaccurate attacks, and made the case that laws protecting this right are sound public policy.

Woman accused of locking kids outside for days
BAKER (WBRZ) - Police arrested a Baker woman accused of locking her four daughters out of their home for at least three days.
Baker Police arrested Danielle Kinchen, 25, of
Investigators said a witness told them they saw the children, all ages 7 or younger, outside and without adults around while their mother wasn't home for at least three days. They also said the girls were wearing the same clothes for multiple days, and at least one of them was seen sleeping outside a nearby trailer. Police said the witnesses also provided pictures to back up their stories.
"There was a few times they would ask me to come use the bathroom, because they'd be locked out, you know they couldn't eat, use the restroom, get nothing to drink, none of that," said a neighbor who wished to remain anonymous.
Investigators also said they saw the children playing outside, barefoot and unsupervised, with dirty clothing which matched what they were wearing in the witness' pictures from a previous day.
The anonymous neighbor told News 2 she once spotted the children sleeping outside early one morning.
"It was a cold morning, it was about , I was getting my kids up for school, and I looked outside and I'd seen the young ones, wrapped up in a blanket on the porch no shoes on, in tank tops," said the neighbor.
Another neighbor refuted the allegations, calling Kinchen a good mother.
"She's a young mother, four kids, unemployed, it's a cry for help. If you want to criticize her, why criticize her when she needs help," said Barbara Pikes.
Police said when they talked to Kinchen in her home they found all the children shared the same room and a single mattress, and the room was so cluttered it couldn't be entered. They said Kinchen denied the claims she left her children alone, and told a Child Protection investigator she simply had "bad kids" according to the police report.
Records show Kinchen was arrested last month for simple battery. That case involved a child in the neighborhood.

Also, your plants aren't using the white LEDs, nor are they using the red LEDs sold in this form factor, 620 nm isn't really used much by chlorophyll. Are there datasheets for these LEDs? I'm having a hard time finding good details outside of the product description, I'm looking for the output curves, and watts/lumens ratios.
How many of these can one ShiftBar power? Obviously they'd all have the same programming, but from a power output standpoint, could one ShiftBar power two-four Satellite Modules?
So why is the lightpipe material more costly than EL Wire, when it seems like it'd cost more to produce? At any rate, I'd like even-numbered lengths, or longer lengths of lightpipe if it's possible, something like 10'?

Argentine show makes serious fun of politics
By Fiona Ortiz
BUENOS AIRES (Reuters Life!) - Marcelo Tinelli, the host of Argentina's top-rated television show, says he's just having some fun with his new political satire, but he could influence a close congressional race on June 28.
Last year, Tinelli ran a racy pole-dancing contest that sent ratings for his "Showmatch" variety show through the ceiling.
Now, he has shifted gears and put political leaders on the defensive with "Big Brother-in-Law," a parody featuring impersonations of prominent politicians.
The show lampoons President Cristina Fernandez, her husband Nestor Kirchner who preceded her in office and is now running for Congress, Kirchner's main opponent Francisco de Narvaez, and others.
Media critics and analysts say the show could shape the outcome of the tight race between Kirchner and De Narvaez in the key province Buenos Aires, home to more than a third of Argentines, although it is unclear in which direction.
If the opposition does well in the mid-term it will try to put the brakes on Fernandez's policies of increasing state intervention in businesses and financial markets.
"Without a doubt, Tinelli is a high priest of opinion. His comments on the candidates are very important, they influence opinion, especially the undecided voters, and there are lots of them," said Fernando Ruiz, a specialist on journalism and democracy at the Austral University in Buenos Aires.

5 Killer Google Plus Features in the Native Android (and Soon iOS) App
Google Plus, the new social networking site that is taking the Web by storm must transition over to the mobile phone and provide an identical experience for mobile users. It is as simple as that and the way mobile users can interact with Google Plus will literally make or break this service as well as any chances it has to really compete with Facebook.
Google has let everyone know that the Google Plus iPhone app has been submitting to Apple for approval and suffice to say that the early users of Google Plus await Apple's stamp of approval anxiously. Meanwhile, the Web app that is available for Google Plus mobile users acts in almost every way like a native app does, minus one small thing. It lacks many basic and necessary features needed to make it a solid replacement for the native app. To name one example, there is no way to post a photo from the Google Plus Web app yet, which clearly is something that needs to change and most likely will in the coming months.
Meanwhile, Android users were the first to receive a full fledged native app for the new social network and based on initial reviews, we have a winner on our hands. Here are five killer features that the native Google Plus Android app offers and are sure to make an appearance on the iOS app as well:
1: Instant Uploads; When you take a photo on Android with the Google Plus app installed, your photos are automatically uploaded to Google Plus and can be easily shared or just backed up automatically.
2: Unlimited Photo and Video Storage: This one is pretty awesome and not necessarily exclusive to mobile but definitely enhanced by the mobile experience. Google basically lifted its storage limits on Picasa accounts and now gives Google Plus users unlimited capacity for photos and videos. As Google says.
As a Google+ user, you get the following:
- Unlimited photo uploads. Photos larger than 2,048 by 2,048 pixels will automatically be resized when uploading.
- Unlimited video uploads (up to 15 minutes per video, up to 1080p)
3: Notifications: The notifications on the Web interface are great, but the notifications on Android are full blown awesome. You get push notifications when someone does one of the following:
- Comments or +1s on your posts.
- Mentions (+) of you in a post.
- Updates and invitations to huddles.
- Photos you've been tagged in or tags you need to approve.
- Alerts about your Google+ app.
4: Huddle: I am pretty sure this is THE killer feature of the Google Plus Android app. Huddle allows you to conduct a group chat with people in your circles and communicate with them in real time. This is widely considered Android's answer to BBM and iMessage.
5: Nearby: While Google Plus is not a mobile service exclusively, the ability to share and view location is. Using the Android app (as well as the Web app) you can share your current location and see people in your nearby vicinity who are using Google Plus. This, like many other features and services we use on our mobile device, will decrease the gap between our virtual and real existence.
While some of these features are truly revolutionary and will give Google a +1 in its rivalry against Facebook and others, the important thing is not the features including in the native Google Plus app. The crucial advantage that is has over some of its competitors is the UI and UX. It is fantastic and as a Google Plus user told us on Twitter "ease of use in adding & finding people is great. I find the interface much more user friendly than the Facebook app" are only some of the advantages of the Google Plus Android app.

Carving a chicken is a simple process that takes a little patience; it gets easier each time you do it. If your chicken truly is cooked enough, it should be easy to remove the meat. It's not a delicate process, though, so don't be shy about manhandling the chicken a bit. Wait until it has cooled just enough for you to handle it comfortably.
Set the chicken breast side up. Pull the leg and thigh back to expose the joint that attaches it to the body (have a little patience; wiggling the thigh section and pulling it away from the body with your hands helps).
1) Use a sharp paring knife to probe for the socket and cut through it, separating the leg and thigh from the carcass. Repeat with the other leg and thigh.
2) Use the knife to cut through the joint that connects the leg to the thigh.
3) Pull off the wings by gently twisting them away from the carcass. You may need the aid of your knife to separate the wings fully.
The breastbone runs along the top center of the chicken carcass. Feel for it with your fingers. Make a 3-inch-long slit along both sides of the breastbone.
4) Dig your fingers into one of the slits and peel the entire half of the breast meat off the carcass. Do the same to remove the breast meat an the other side. Slice each half of breast meat crosswise, making 5 or 6 slices per breast half.
Pick or cut off whatever meat remains on the carcass. Arrange the legs, thighs, wings, and meat on a platter and serve.

Brad performed the ceremony, so we were around all day and I decided to use the opportunity to try out my new Polaroid 600SE (I had gotten it only a couple weeks before) and just shoot polaroids at their wedding. Here are some of the images I took.

(They already posted NO CC decal (legal) at entry to building few years back, but I knew that I had the right as renter/business owner to cc, so I just continued and no one was the wiser) Well now that they have language in this new lease prohibiting CC both in the buildiing & on the grounds. I am curious (as a business owner/tenant) if I have to comply with lease terms, and by accepting those terms through my signature, voluntarily giving up my right to cc? BTW.........current owner is NJ Liberal Anti, so any conversation or admission of CC is out of the question.

Dip the asparagus in the batter and fry, in batches if necessary, until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Drain the asparagus on paper towels and season lightly with salt. Serve at once, with lemon wedges or ponzu sauce.
