Mediaite's desperate need for quality control
Blog ››› ››› JAMISON FOSER
It is said that an infinite number of monkeys banging on an infinite number of typewriters for an infinite amount of time will eventually produce a precise replica of Shakespeare's Hamlet. A couple dozen monkeys fighting over three typewriters for an hour and a half, on the other hand, will yield something a lot closer to Frances Martel's inane write-up of a National Enquirer article for Mediaite. (Slate's John Dickerson aptly describes the underlying story about a supposed Obama sex scandal as an "investigation about an alleged rumor." Marc Ambinder adds that he and other reporters looked into the non-story years ago, and found that ... there's nothing to find.)
By now you probably know that Martel's Mediaite article was guilty of treating "old, evidence free rumors as breaking news" in part because Matt Drudge was hyping it and that there are some indications Martel was more interested in creating a scandal than reporting on one.
But what struck me about Martel's article was just how poorly-written it was, and how little she seemed to understand the article she was summarizing. And in reading several other recent Mediaite articles by Martel and managing editor Colby Hall, it seems this is a common problem.

Have Toyota Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Your layout is reversed from most vehicles, as the pipes cross over each other, as shown in the following diagram:
You will need to access the sensor from the bottom of the vehicle, however. Access from the top is very difficult. From below is not bad at all however.
You will need an O2 sensor socket, or a 22mm wrench to get it out. I strongly recommend using a generous amount of penetrating oil or similar an hour or so before attempting to remove the sensor.
is bank 1 on the driver side or passenger?
I ordered a replacement using the bank 1 sensor 2 and the service rep placed the order but the info detail was listed as passenger.
I'm assuming sensor 1 is the top and sensor 2 at the bottom.
Does it matter is it's bank 1 or 2?
The sensor you need to replace is the drivers side lower sensor, circled in the picture above. You are correct, sensor 1 is the upper sensors, and sensor 2 is the lower sensors.
It absolutely matters bank 1 versus bank 2. If your code is bank 1 sensor 2, you must replace the sensor circled above (driver side, lower)

The Tower Center is actively engaged in a number of research projects involving faculty and experts from SMU, as well as other universities and institutes in the United States and abroad.
The purpose of this research is to provide a deeper understanding of the complexity of the issues in international affairs with the expectation that a more sophisticated understanding will lead to comprehensive, sustainable policies. The research conducted within the Center is part of its mission to bridge the gap between the worlds of policy and academia, and help move policy debate from Capitol Hill into the heartland of America. The Tower Center's multi-disciplinary approach to research brings expertise and tools from political science, history, economics, business, cultural studies and other fields to bear on the most important issues of the day. Students are part of the Tower Center research teams and participate in all aspects of the intellectual life of the Center. The core mission of the Tower Center is to engage students in public service as well as provide them with the tools for success. Scholarship provides students with analytical abilities, intellectual sophistication, and deep knowledge of specific areas necessary for careers in many fields.
The Tower Center is dedicated to the premise that the US-Mexico relationship is of vital political and economic significance for the United States, which is why it strongly collaborates with its sister center, the Mission Foods Texas-Mexico Center.
The Mission Foods Texas-Mexico Center is dedicated to improving relations between Texas and Mexico through dialogue and research. It works to encourage greater cross-border integration and cross-sector collaboration in academia, government, NGOs and business. Through its research, it seeks to produce actionable ideas and policy recommendations that address current issues that impact the bilateral relationship the most, especially in trade and economy, energy, migration, border issues and education, human capital and development.
The Security and Strategy Program at the Tower Center serves to raise student and public awareness of national and international security affairs. Our principal mission is to prepare SMU undergraduates to become leaders in government service, academia, and industry. We offer a rigorous and demanding set of courses on international relations, national security policy, strategy, American foreign policy, and the politics of military force. The Tower Center also gives students the opportunity to interact with policymakers, military officers, intelligence officials, and diplomats.
The United States has become increasingly active in regional conflicts since the end of the Cold War, and it invests enormous resources into projecting American power abroad. SAS@SMU encourages a vigorous debate on this investment. Along with the annual Tower Center National Security Conference, we organize regular forums and seminars that give the public the chance to converse with leading scholars about cutting edge research in security studies, as well as with government officials and defense industry executives.

A number of Tower Center affiliated faculty are studying the domestic political and economic affairs of Asian countries, relations among those countries, and the interaction of Asian nations with countries in other regions. The synergy of faculty from different disciplines coming together to focus on their common interest in Asia has resulted in several major research projects and publications that investigate the critical aspects of economic, national defense policies, culture in the region.

Latino Public Policy is a strategic research partnership between the Latino Center for Leadership Development and the John Goodwin Tower Center for Political Studies. America is in the midst of a fundamental, Latino-driven, demographic shift. Latinos will represent more than 30 percent of the U.S. population by 2050 and will represent 70 percent of the workforce growth between 2010 and 2020. This partnership aims to increase the study of public policy issues that are faced by Latino communities within the U.S. and to generate thoughtful solutions.

Editor's Note: It's National Nude Day — yes, there is such a thing — so we're republishing this post about Sphynx cats, the hairless or "naked" breed. We've also linked to other Catster posts below that expose thoughts on cats and nudity.
I got my two female Sphynx cats within a year of each other from the same responsible and experienced breeder. Skinny Mini is a mischievous five-year-old calico tabby, and dainty three-year-old Fly has seal-tortie-sepia coloring. (Isn't that an Instagram filter?) I had done my research on cat breeds and was not going into Sphynx ownership unprepared — or so I thought.
Since adopting my first Sphynx, I've come to realize that:
Sphynx cats allow us to appreciate fascinating feline morphology without all that fur getting in the way. I knew I liked the unique appearance of the Sphynx before getting one, but I didn't know I'd be so completely captivated by my cats' big bat ears, runway model cheekbones, and delightful skin folds. I love how Fly's legs look like she's wearing sagging pantyhose, and how when Skinny Mini quivers her tail it sends a ripple of wrinkles up her back. I can't get enough of stroking their soft, warm skin and kissing their adorable pot bellies. Sphynxes often don't have whiskers or eyelashes, which draws even more attention to their expressive, almond-shaped eyes and chubby whisker pads.
Unfortunately, I also realize now that a lot of people find this breed ugly and unappealing. I don't know how many times I've shown someone a photo of my girls only to be met with a grimace and a comment along the lines of, "Ugh! They are so strange looking! Why would you want a cat like that?" I certainly find this type of remark insulting, and always hope that the same person doesn't show me a picture of their kid just after.
I understand that this breed is not everyone's cup of tea, but as my mother used to tell me, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." (Or, just lie to me and tell me my cats are super cute.)
Sphynx cats are known for being chatterboxes. They "talk" to their owners using a whole repertoire of chirps, squeaks, and whines, and my girls are no exception. Skinny Mini is definitely the more communicative one. She's got the vocal range of Mariah Carey and a diva personality to match. If you disturb her while she's resting, she'll let out a sound not unlike an annoyed teenager's "Whaaat?" And, like a typical teenager, she'll talk back to you if you tell her "no."
And when Sphynxes aren't using their mouths to (constantly) express themselves, they are shoving food in there. Thanks to an enviable metabolism, these cats have hearty appetites. Keeping them healthy and well-fed means putting aside a certain budget for quality cat food, and since I have two, I feel like I'm always buying cat food — and bags of litter. Owning a pair of Sphynxes has turned out to be more costly than I thought, but if it means cutting back on my own personal expenses to make sure my cats have what they need, I don't hesitate.
I knew before getting my cats that hairless did not mean maintenance-free. Any Sphynx owner will tell you that these four-legged nudists need a lot of care. I was lucky because I adopted my girls as adults, and the breeder had already accustomed them to getting washed, having their ears cleaned and their nails trimmed; I simply had to keep up the good habits. I was warned that Sphynx cats can leave an oily residue on clothes and linen (and on their owners) if you don't bathe them weekly, but it was still quite a surprise the first time I saw it for myself.
Just a few days after getting Skinny Mini, she started sleeping under the covers with me. It was October, and still very warm in the southeast of France, and her sweating coupled with a bit of anxiety at being in a new home meant that she was even grimier than what I now know is normal. I woke up one morning to find a greasy, Skinny Mini-sized mark on the white fitted sheet. "Look!" I said to my husband with a certain degree of intrigue and disgust. "The cat is literally coming off on the bed sheets!"
And just like people, some Sphynx cats are better at keeping themselves clean than others. Skinny Mini loves giving herself pedicures to clean out the gunk that gets trapped in her nails beds and between each toe. She'll park herself in the middle of the living room, usually when we have company over, fan out her webbed feet, and go to town noisily licking and chewing every claw. Fly prefers that I roll her up in a blanket, burrito style, and wipe off each nail for her. She's more awkward than Skinny Mini, and will often accidentally swipe her long tapered tail through her litter box … deposits. I won't notice until she jumps up on my lap and leaves a smelly surprise on my clothes. And she may only be five pounds, but Fly's flatulence will make your eyes water.
A word to the wise: This breed requires regular grooming in order to keep them healthy and comfortable, so if you are thinking to yourself, "Who's got time for all that?" then a Sphynx is not for you.
Unlike my (fully clothed) ginger tabby, No├®, who is a typical feline mix of cuddly aloofness, Skinny Mini and Fly border on being creepy little stalkers. You want personal space? Alone time with your significant other? Impossible with a Sphynx in the house. They are all up in your business all of the time. I'll often be taking a shower, minding my own business, and turn around to find Fly perched on the edge of the tub, her large unblinking eyes boring into mine. "You wanted five minutes alone in the bathroom?" she seems to be asking. "I don't think so." (And yes, they can open doors!)
Don't get me wrong ÔÇô- I love that they follow me around and solicit my attention constantly. I'm home alone a lot as my husband works long hours, and my cats give me something to focus on and take care of. They are always up for playing or warming my lap, and it's impossible to feel lonely with them here. Sphynxes don't like being left alone for long periods of time, so it can be a good idea to have a pair of them if you're not home much. And even though Skinny Mini is a lot less needy since I adopted Fly, she still loves to sleep tucked in the crook of my arm every single night.
I am completely in love (read: obsessed) with my Sphynx cats. My life is so much fuller because they are in it, and while I might not have known what to fully expect when I got my first Sphynx (and then a second), I've worked to become to the best Sphynx mom I can be. These cats have totally won me over with their exotic look, playful personalities, and affectionate dispositions.
Owning a Sphynx (or any pet, for that matter) is not for those who don't want a big commitment. I'm ready and willing, though, because if I've learned anything in the crazy ex-pat life of mine, it's to go big or go home!
Here's more about cats and nudity:

Well, this kinda sucks because the author probably had few items in the pipeline, with resubmissions from soft rejects (this happens all the time to everyone on TF). And suddenly got approved on both of them at the same time. This model is really not working.
Guys, you are totally going offtopic! I am also curious what Envato has to say to its business partners in this topic, stop littering it
Great news fellas! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you, you are developing unique stuff Congratulations, keep up the good work!
Congratz! Me me me
Of course you are right about less competition, but you need to take a look from a perspective of flexibility of those themes. If I was running niche business, I would work on making it look different than others. This is easier with multipurpose themes. What is more niche themes may get old much faster than simple multipurpose ones.
I think it's better to do a safe design for "all purposes", but with a delicate accent of some innovation. Then users get what they want, your theme gets exposure – it's a win-win situation. Niche themes can have really short life I think, you may sell 500 copies first month, and end up a year with 550 overall sold copies.
Just starting the training in 30mins, wish me good luck guys
I see it goes really nice gratz!
So much sweets here that I had to toss even more Congratulations guys! Good to be partnering with you!
btw: przejmujemy
That is some nice milestone good luck guys in reaching elite and all the best for 2k14

Nintendo plans on launching its 3DS -- the handheld video game system featuring 3-D technology with no glasses -- on March 27, the company revealed at a press event Tuesday.
According to updates from the event on Nintendo's official Twitter feed, the handheld will sell for $249.99.
Thirty games will be available for the 3DS between the device's launch and this June's Electronic Entertainment Expo, the company says.
The 3DS will include an Activity Log to track which games users have played and for how long, as well as a Mii Maker that creates a Mii avatar based on a photo taken with the 3DS camera. Users can also import avatars created on the Wii using an SD card.
The device will also include an updated version of Friend Codes. Users will have only one code they share with friends, and is not software dependent.
We'll have more details on the 3DS from today's event as they become available.
Update at 11:08 a.m. ET: Nintendo has released an official statement with more details on 3DS, including features and the list of titles slated to hit shelves in the coming months.
The dual-screen handheld features a lower touch-screen and an upper 3-D screen with a slider to adjust the 3-D effects. It also includes an inside camera and two outside cameras to take 3-D photos, as well as built-in motion and gyro sensors.
The 3DS will also add a Circle Pad for 360-degree motion. This should make titles such as Capcom's Super Street Fighter IV remake for the device a bit easier to control.
The device will be available in either Cosmo Black or Aqua Blue and will come preloaded with a handful of games such as Face Raiders, which takes advantage of the 3DS cameras.
A Nintendo eShop will debut with the handheld, and include a Virtual Console for classic games, similar to what the Wii offers. Nintendo says users will be able to download older games from their Game Boy and Game Boy Color libraries.
Among the more interesting features is the 3DS' ability to double as a pedometer. Players collect coins based on the number of steps taken, and can use them to collect content in compatible games or applications, Nintendo says.
The 3DS will add a pair of new applications to make sharing data and connecting to the Web easier. The StreetPass lets users exchange information such as high scores or Mii characters by simply passing by another person with a 3DS. The SpotPass allows users to easily connect to public Wi-Fi hot spots.
First-party titles such as Pilotwings Resort, nintendogs + cats and submarine adventure Steel Diver are expected to arrive with the launch of 3DS. Also, third-party publisher Ubisoft has confirmed it will launch eight games along with the 3DS, including versions of its Rabbids, Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell franchises.
Here's a complete list of titles expected to launch soon for 3DS. We'll keep you posted on which ones appear at launch (publishers in bold).

I am in the process of adding a furled stay sail, and purchasing a high clew 110% yankee along with the stay sail. If I am to hold a 10% tight angle on the stay sail the sheets will be tracked on the salon roof. SO, does anyone have experience with this? I talked to Jeanneau and got the: "don't know, won't ask our engineers, don't care, don't do it, it will void the warrantee, and don't ask any more questions cause we don't have time for customers stupid ideas" Needless to say, that just made me want to do it more! I am currently having a marine design engineer calculate the loads and give me his opinion....but sure would like some experienced comment.

I'm personally with Jeanneau on this idea, why mess up what the yacht designers planned and built? Add a removable inner forestay for flying your storm jib, and live with a single jib If you use 130% reefable to 100% that should be all you need. You'll have better performance from that sail than the jumble of sails and sheets you describe.
Just my opinion...
I have a 43DS and thought (briefly) about a staysail. After looking at the deck structure forward where it could be mounted I realized that quite a lot of additional reinforcing would be needed to support the loads this sail would take (my intent was to use it as a storm trysail). The cabin deck has enough openings in the leads on my boat to take an additional furling line and could support 2 more sheets, but the angles would be wrong so these would also have to be led parallel to the Genoa lines and the added hardware would make walking forward tougher.
It would be great if your engineer could find a viable solution, but I'm not too sanguine about it.
That is a good point...and I went back and forth for a long time. I am planning to sail down the coast of the US and Mexico, then to Australia, with my wife and I as crew. Up wind performance in winds over 18 kts is a real problem with the 130% jib and in-mast main furling. Soal keel doesn't help. Major reefing of the jib destorys the shape and results in no drive and lots of tipping force....I guess in the long run I have opted for more control in high winds, even though I know I will loose some light wind performance. This is if the engineer is comfortable.
I've only done one long haul upwind with over 20 knots all the way and yes, performance was pretty bad with a reefed genoa. There was a thread a couple of days ago showing a stormsail/small genoa that would slip over the furled one - this looked like a perfect option and I noted the manufacturer (on my other PC at home). In order to reinforce the deck for a second hardpoint upfront you would need to "intrude" on the front cabin quite a bit, perhaps a full lateral support. I intend on doing the Pacific crossing in the 43DS as well but think that a stormsail as mentioned above should be sufficient. Plus LOTS of plywood/fiberglass covers for all that window surface!
The verdict came in from the designer..... reinforce (install a bulkhead) just aft of the chainlocker then use a tang for the stay from the bulkhead just foreward of the windlass. run the sheets to the forward portion of the current tracks (completely solves any structural considerations) and see how things work....keep my 130% jib to retain light wind performance (currently GREAT). The upwind performance problem is partially because of the soal keel but mostly because of the in-mast furling, no roach, out of shape mainsail. So I am considering a verticle batten sail. Anyone have thoughts on this?
Hello all. I am new to this site and new to Jeanneau. But I think I do have some insight. I also have a 43DS and unfortunately have not been able to sell my Cascade 44 yet do to other challenges.
Here is what I have to offer. On my Cascade I added a 130% Roller Furling Headsail and a behind the mast Roller Furling Main sail all for the benefit of my 110lb wife (I was too lazy to crawl out of bed to help change sail plan). The Cascade was alway overpowered with a huge main sail (20ft boom) above 18kts wind, very much weather helm. But when I put the Main Furler on, if I too about 2 feet off by fuling the main, I found I could get up to 25kts wind without fighting the helm and didn't loose any real speed.
While in San Diego last week sailing in and out of the bay to ocean, my 43DS was acting much like my old cascade. So I though I would give some shortening a try. I first rolled in the Genoa which did two things, releived the helm and also gave me a better view under the Genoa. Wind was about 18-20kts. Still had a little weather helm but I was clocking 8.5kts over water. Thought that was neat so I took in about a foot on the main and the weather helm was completely gone and was still clocking 8.5kts over water.
I orginally thought I wanted to do the same as you but after some playing with the shorter sails I have given up the idea completely for all the reasons previously mentioned.
Now I am spending my money on a removable bowsprit by Selden and adding a A2 Gennaker by North Sails and may opt for a storm. Got enough sail for heavier winds but not much for the lighter ones downwind.
Hope this helped.
Hello Again,
You make good points... I have a storm tracker.... works but is one hell of a fight to get it on! I have some new input from a combination of design person and UK sails.... The net result is:
1) don't dis your shoal keel...it will serve you well in the pacific
2) if you want to improve upwind performance especially in high wind, put real sails on your boat. New fabrics and carbon strands have revolutionized sailmakers ability to keep both jib and main flat and in shape with deep roller furling, while reducing weight aloft by 30% to 50%. All this combines to keep the boat on its feet with full jib and main reefed up to 40% (???) in winds up to 30 kts to windward and 35-40 downwind. Big claims!
3) A staysail is appropriate for an ofshore boat, for storm conditions...and lead the sheets on a traveler forward of the mast or to current or new deck tracks...not the cabin roof. Just keep it lower than 15 % angle...10% is better.
4) all think that a watertight bulkhead just aft of the chainlocker is beneficial to the boat in general and the right way to support the inner stay.
We will see...I will be on the boat with all these guys the first week in February to make final decision. I will let you know how it all turns out.
THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT...it helped focus the argument!
Keel type...shoal or deep ???
Thanks for the inof.... fis your 43DS standard or shoal keel???
Mine is a standard keel but I would think mine would track even better than a shoal draft with full sails out.

Drag the River
It's Crazy.
Suburban Home Records
The "alt" in Drag the River's alt-country label isn't there because the band's sound deviates much from traditional country music. It's there just to serve notice that they don't pull their ideas from the same worn sack of God and country bullcrap as what counts as non-alt. Otherwise, Drag the River sounds as country as they come.
Lyrical twists and counterpoint arrangements like the one that takes a jiggish little ditty, "Leaving in the Morning," to a gallows pole with no time to catch a breath before the next-up swinging blues ride can be unsettling. But by the time "Me & Joe Drove out to California" rolls around—with its Springsteenesque storytelling put to music smooth and jovial enough for a CMT video—the song-to-song alteration jars less than it simply inspires admiration at the musicianly versatility. It's not the last trick they've got, either.
A melancholy, dusty dirge ("Beautiful & Damned") awash in the red of crying eyes and bleeding hands still waits, joined by more material suited to a whiskey-soaked and sawdusted roadhouse.
Good Time Charlie and Hard Luck Bill swap stools often enough on It's Crazy that it's never clear who's gonna tap you on the shoulder when the track changes. Both, though, are steeped in enough sincerity and talent that, as "The Cause & the Cure" suggests, you'll be having another round. (Jason Wiener)
Drag the River plays The Other Side Monday, Aug. 28, at 10 PM. $6.
The Martyr Index
It's Called Rock N Roll
Meter Records
After one listen to The Martyr Index's It's Called Rock N Roll, the crashing trap drum, electric guitar and howlingly irate anarchist lyrics begin to stir that fire in your belly. After two, you forget that you like roads, public education and student aid. After three times through the four-song EP, you're standing, fist in the air, yelling along with Mark Vermin and Meg Spinx's outraged call-and-response in the proletariat rebellion anthem "1936": "We built this city once/we'll build this city again/this time we'll do it for ourselves."
These Canadian punksters have a cause, and they wear it on their outstretched, beating-heart-clutching, fist-clenching sleeves. "Hacienda Luisita" is a rhythm-driven history lesson about a violent revolt in the Philippines, while "Universal" delivers a gentler one-world message without losing any energy.
It's easy to snicker at the group's earnest righteousness—manifest in the cheesy anti-government voice-over on "Hacienda Luisita." But it's that kind of over-the-top impassioned politics that made punk punk in the first place, and The Martyr Index is here to insert some "Viva La Revolucíon" back into the scene. (Alyssa Work)
The Martyr Index plays at Caras Park Saturday, Aug. 26, as part of the Rock Against Racism concert. Show starts at 11 AM. Free.
Crash Romeo
Minutes to Miles
Trustkill Records
In the playlist parade of sugar-punk, a la Good Charlotte and Simple Plan, Crash Romeo has all the affected vocals and inane lyrics to fall right into step on the boulevard to MTV-land. In fairness, it should be noted that the New Jersey quintet includes proficient musicians and that their newest album, Minutes to Miles, has impeccably glossy production values. Problem is, the rebellious veneer is a little like a pair of Hot Topic pants: ripped in all the right places without a shred of authenticity.
The record's themes in songs like "Die in Your Arms" vary little beyond romance and vague disillusionment while the vocabulary is limited to clichés like "your last kiss" and "one last breath." Sometimes there's a glimmer of the melodic rawness that made pop-punk band Jawbreaker so clever, but in the end Minutes to Miles lacks everything but suburban whine. Years later songs like "Serious" may even come back to haunt the band, especially the embarrassing line, "There's a party in the back room with all the girls we've been through/and I looked for you but I guess you weren't there." Serious? They've got to be kidding. (Erika Fredrickson)
Crash Romeo plays the Union Hall Wednesday, Aug. 30, at 6 PM. On The Last Day, Grace Gale and The Sharktopus open. $7.
Gulag Orkestar
Ba Da Bing!
The brainchild of one-man-band Zach Condon, Beirut is as honest and inviting as an indie-flavored Eastern European folk effort can sound coming from a teenager in New Mexico. It's an odd mix on the surface, but the deeper listeners dig into the 19-year-old's textured and delicately produced 11-song debut, the more rewarding the adventure.
The musicianship on Gulag Orkestar is full of winsome acoustics ("Bandenburg"), whining brass horns ("Bratislava"), oompah-inspiring accordion ("Mount Wroclai (Idle Days)") and syncopated hand percussion ("The Bunker"). The backgrounds change subtly from track to track, but Condon's melancholy vocals are consistent throughout, sounding like a cross of David Byrne at his most haunting, Neutral Milk Hotel's Jeff Mangum and Nick Cave. The best example of Condon's ability to stretch and still sound cohesive comes on the album's biggest changeup—a rolling Latin-flavored lounge tune, "Postcards From Italy."
Very rarely on Gulag Orkestar does Condon come across as young—only a few of the lyrics wallow in teenage naiveté—or even remotely American. He's striving for an authentic Gypsy sound, and with this rich and far-reaching effort he drifts his way there with surprising acumen. (Skylar Browning)

Had a great time in New York at the College Art Association Conference. I hadn't been in a while, so it was great to see some familiar faces. The biggest surprise was walking towards the Christian Marclay show in Chelsea and looking up to see Carol LaFayette (my friend and dissertation advisor)! We had a great time catching up on things and seeing some work. "The Clock" was alright. I want to like it, but my feelings were similar to these. I'm very suspicious of nostalgia, with the way the work was edited, that seemed to be an overly important part of the experience.
Saved lots of money with this room!
Richard Hamilton's DIAB DS-101 Computer at MoMA
Image from the Art of Pranks panel at CAA.
One of the most enjoyable sessions I attended was the Art of Pranks panel. It was practically a Fluxus performance in itself with Beauvais Lyons, Sarah Archino, Albert Godycki, Hannah Higgins, Simon Anderson, Lisa Sayles, Clark Stoeckley (in police uniform) and Andy Bichlbaum from the Yes Men.
Eddie Shanken's panel New Media, Art-Science, and Mainstream Contemporary Art: Toward a Hybrid Discourse? was great as well. Full documentation can be found at his site, HERE. I especially enjoyed Christiane Paul's description of "Relational Aesthetics Syndrome"...a sort of amnesia for work that truly works with communication/dialogism/participation. Her view is that the problem is not with the artworld/art; it is that "art history has a major problem"!

This is an insight from Dr. Joaquin Barroso-Flores about the future of Green and Sustainable Chemistry.
As an Associated Research Fellow at the Joint Center for Sustainable Chemistry Research, I'm frequently reminded that there is little consensus in the scientific community about the difference between "green" and "sustainable" chemistry.
Many ask, are they synonyms?
At the Center, we recently held a congress on green chemistry where this question arose. We reached the conclusion that green chemistry is related to environmentally friendly processes – such as carrying reactions out in water, supercritical fluids, solvent-free media or modifying reaction schemes to generate as little pollutants as possible.
Sustainable chemistry relates to the modification of our current chemical or industrial processes in a chemically and financially economical way such that we may be able to carry them on in the future without consuming all of our non-renewable resources. Therefore, green and sustainable chemistry are not interchangeable concepts, but should clearly be interlocked so we minimize both the environmental and social impacts of our science while addressing our industrial needs.
To help ensure future generations of chemists understand the importance of employing green and sustainable chemistry practices in their everyday work and research, we need to educate today's students, starting with undergraduates, to think about how to use the same old chemistry tools in new environmentally friendly ways. For example, we could teach students how to use the same organic chemistry reactions we already know, to modify synthesis paths in fewer steps.
I spoke specifically about these matters during The Future of Sustainable Chemistry, a virtual conference hosted by The Dow Chemical Company that brought together 30 global thinkers to explore how sustainable chemistry can be used to solve some of the world's most complex challenges. It was exciting to be part of a collaborative, global dialogue around sustainable chemistry, and I hope the conversation will continue.
To learn more about my perspective on green and sustainable chemistry, you can visit my blog. You can also watch my two-minute video, which was shown as part of The Future of Sustainable Chemistry conference, or watch the full hour-long conference at www.FutureWeCreate.com.
Dr. Barroso-Flores received his Ph. D in Chemistry in 2007 from the National Autonomous University of Mexico. From 2006-2008, Dr. Barroso-Flores worked as an associate research fellow at the Polymers Research Center from the COMEX Group in Mexico City. While at the Center, his work focused on the optimization of commercial coatings formulations, as well as the development of new additives for improved performance in such coatings.
In late 2008, Dr. Barroso-Flores moved back to Cluj-Napoca to work as a post-doctoral fellow in the field of theoretical design of calixarene molecules as potential drug delivery agents. Starting in May 2010, Dr. Barroso-Flores joined the Institute of Chemistry from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, and was appointed to the Center for Research in Sustainable Chemistry, where he works today in Applied Theoretical Chemistry, working on projects related to drug delivery agents and design, as well as artificial photosynthesis.

Marco Borriello and Arturo Vidal were also on the scoresheet as Antonio Conte's side continue to hold off the title challenge of a second-placed AC Milan
The result never looked in doubt as Mirko Vucinic catapulted the Old Lady ahead in the 16th minute before his strike partner Marco Borriello added the second before the break. Arturo Vidal added a third soon after the restart and Vucinic completed the rout with his second.
After the nail-biting victory over Cesena last week, Juve set about ensuring their supporters had a far more comfortable afternoon right from the kick off.
Within two minutes Borriello was played in behind the defence Vucinic. He aimed for the far corner with a cross-goal shot but it bent away from the target and shaded the outside of the post.
Juve continued to attack relentlessly and the Novara defence could only keep them out until the 16th minute.
Andrea Pirlo's free kick from the left found Vucinic in the box and the Montenegrin added the most deft of flicks that diverted the ball into the goal via the crossbar.
Antonio Conte's men were not letting up and continued to stretch the Novara defence but Claudio Marchisio and Stephan Lichtsteiner failed to add to their team's tally.
Andrea Mazzarini missed Novara's best chance of the half on the half hour when his header looped onto the roof of the net. The hosts were then punished 10 minutes later when the Bianconeri finally added their second goal.
Emanuele Giaccherini supplied a superb cross to the back post which was met by an unmarked Borriello and the striker found the back of the net with a diving header.
The second half provided no respite for the hosts and after Borriello failed to convert a simple tap in three minutes after the restart, Vidal added the third.
With 50 minutes played Vucinic saw his initial effort saved by Alberto Fontana but the rebound fell straight to the feet of the Chilean. It was a simple finish and he coolly slotted the ball into the bottom corner with the keeper out of position.
Novara were being totally outclassed and in the 64th minute Vucinic slammed in a rebound after Giaccherini's shot was saved by Fontana, to make it 4-0.
Elijero Elia failed to make it a five-star performance when his shot was saved magnificently by Fontana 12 minutes from time.
The Bianconeri stepped off the gas and coasted to the final whistle, but there was still time for Pirlo to rattle the post with an exquisite stoppage-time free kick 25 yards from goal.
Juventus are now one game closer to their first Scudetto since the 2002/03 campaign. AC Milan's victory over Siena means that the Turin side maintain their three-point lead over the Rossoneri but now just three games remain.
For Novara, relegation looms ever larger and they could well be confirmed for the drop if they fail to win their next match away to Fiorentina.

After a continental breakfast, golfers will tackle the world-class Tom Fazio-designed Oak Creek golf course. Players will be invited to a post-tournament lunch featuring awards and a prize raffle.
And don't forget your loud slacks—we know you have them! Dig to the back of your closet and pull out those plaid shorts or old school knickers. Get together with your friends and be creative with your team uniforms. You could win more than just all the attention on the course.
At the conclusion of the day, grab a drink at the club house and watch as a helicopter buzzes the course, dropping 500 golf balls onto the green. The person with the ball closet to the hole wins an iPad 2. It could be you!
Don't miss out on this outrageous event and the opportunity to support the Orange Coast Memorial Foundation.

Tiger Woods wife Elin Nordegren has reportedly moved out of their home and in with friends in the Windemere, Florida neighborhood they live in. Meanwhile Porn Star Holly Sampson is listed as the 8th woman to have had an alleged affair with the World's Greatest Golfer. This is a sad series of developments, as it appears Woods life as he and we knew it is crumbling before our collective eyes.
Holly Sampson
Radar Online.com lead with the story "Elin Nordegren moves out" that was confirmed by the Chicago Sun Times. There's no more new information on that report as of this writing or if she took their two children with her. That information needs to be included here.
Meanwhile, Porn Star Holly Sampson has not denied sleeping with Tiger Woods and Fox News claims that while Samspon is the 7th woman allegedly linked to Woods, there's an 8th, a 9th and a 10th woman as well.
Beyond the 8th woman, who's I can explain in a moment, I think it's irresponsible of Fox News to allege there's a 9th and 10th without evidence that is even a child of deductive reasoning. Let's recap how many women have been connected with Woods to date:
1. Rachel Uchitel - The National Enquirer-outed nighclub executive who denied sleeping with Woods but later admitted it after two other women stepped forward.
2. Jaimie Grubbs - The San Diego cocktail waitress who gave US Weekly her recording of Woods alleged voicemail to Grubbs that she remove her name from her phone because his Wife was going to call her.
3. Kalika Moquin - While linked to Woods by a source to Radar Online and other gossip pubs, Moquin has denied any relationship and not given any additional statements. She's the marketing manager at The Bank Nightclub at Bellagio in Las Vegas.
4. Jamie Jungers - The 26-year-old Las Vegas entertainer-for-hire model is the fourth woman who came forward on Saturday. She claimed she was going to tell her story to a British publication, but has yet to do so.
5. Mindy Lawton - Of all the women connected to Woods, 34-year-old Mindy Lawton is closest to his home in Orlando, and was said to have worked at a local restaurant called Perkins Diner. They carried on a 14-month affair (starting in 2006 and ending in 2007) which was said to have been documented by the National Enquirer, which never ran the story.
Lawton's proximity to Woods gave the World its closest look at the golfer's "off-course" lifestyle, consisting of meetups with friends and party girls in VIP areas of places like The Blue Martini in Orlando. Lawton reportedly took their affair seriously, so it is no wonder that she's allowing her story to be told far and wide - she's pissed.
Mindy Lawton
6. Cori Rist - A source told the New York Post that the 31-year-old Upper East-Side dwelling Rist met Woods at a New York Nightclub called "Butter" then flew her to places where he had golfing engagements.
7. Holly Sampson - The first, and hopefully for Woods the last porn star to make this list, Holly Sampson was introduced to the British Daily Mail via another unnamed source. Sampson has made 85 movies from Lingerie or Bust to Diary of a Horny Housewife. Holly Sampson has not confirmed or denied that she slept with Woods as of this writing.
8. Name by Michael O'Quinn - Michael O'Quinn has said he also represents a woman who allegedly had an affair with Woods, but since O'Quinn has not come forward, that woman has to be "Number 8" because he has said he does not represent any one else.
Fox News claims there's a 9th woman and a 10th woman but has no media partner to confirm that assertion as of this writing. Unlike "Number 8" which can be linked to Michael O'Quinn, there's nothing, not even mention of an unnamed source to justify the introduction of a 9th or 10th woman.
I think Fox News is trying to advance and move the search pattern of this story to favor its own website, which is a terrible process to use in this or any news story.
Now, with all of these reports coming fast and furious, our attention should turn to Woods and his mental state. I have no idea, and the media does not seem concerned to know, how he's doing.
I've got to believe all of these affairs, some real and many questionable, may in some way be connected to the passing of his father Earl Woods, who was so central to Woods development as a man and a level-headed celebrity.
Finally, I wonder why Woods selected nightclub executives and waitresses as opposed to sports executives and lawyers or Stanford coeds? Woods was at Stanford for just two academic years before his golf life took over and he turned pro in 1999. Maybe he didn't get the full experience of a Cardinal education, complete with all of the amazingly talented female leaders that come from The Farm.
I don't know. I just don't know.
Stay tuned.

Readings for all classes will be provided in spiral-bound volumes distributed in class. Written assignments and grading.

Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Each of our volunteers come from different backgrounds. Their professional careers are vastly varied, their home situations are just as varied. However, their love for dogs, BOXERS in particular, has brought them together. Each dog benefits from something different at every home, and from every hand of our volunteers. Anyone needing assistance, as well, benefits from our diverse backgrounds, knowledge, and experiences.
Upon successful completion we will check your references given, your veterinarian and also your community animal control/municipality. We will visit your home for an interview. You're always given the tools needed to succeed.
All of our animals are vetted prior to adoption. Your pet will be spayed or neutered and be current on vaccinations to the current protocol of the CVMA, unless recommended otherwise by a veterinarian. In the case of puppies, the adopter is responsible for cost and to keep the spay/neuter appointment of the puppy in the time limit given.
Adult Dogs: $220
Puppies: $150
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

Saying technology vendors and industry groups need "a champion" in Washington, U.S. Commerce Secretary Donald Evans today disclosed that the Bush administration is considering the creation of a new position with responsibility for representing the views of high-tech companies.
Evans, speaking at the Global Internet Summit 2000 conference here, said technology vendors should have "a single point of contact to help [them] plot a course" on policy issues and on promoting market opportunities on a global basis. But after his speech, Evans said no decision has been made about adding such a post. "We're continuing to view and consider what kind of model would best serve the IT world," he said.
Beyond that, Evans offered few specifics about the new administration's plans in regard to technology issues. Instead, he listed some broad philosophical goals that all point toward minimal regulation. "The better job we do of keeping government out of the way . . . the better job American business will do at home," he said.
On that point, Evans got some support from Ireland's Deputy Prime Minister Mary Harney, who emphasized the need for a "light" regulatory touch while addressing the conference. Ireland is doing better economically than some other European countries because of its approach to regulating companies, Harney said.
"Over-regulation does stifle business development," Harney said in response to a reporter's question. "I believe you will see a move towards lighter regulation over time -- because the alternative just doesn't work."
Al Berkeley, vice chairman of Washington-based Nasdaq Stock Market Inc., also called for deregulation of the equity markets and said international agreements are needed to allow the easy flow of investments between different countries. Currently, it's easier to buy a foreign wine "than to buy the stocks of any of those companies" that produce the wine, Berkeley said.
This is the second year that the conference, sponsored by Washington-based George Mason University, is being held. About 700 people attended, down several hundred from last year -- possibly reflecting the bursting of the dot-com market bubble that has been marked by numerous shutdowns or cutbacks by e-commerce ventures.
This story, "Bush administration mulls addition of technology post" was originally published by Computerworld.

Grips appear to be hand-made/home-made replacements.
Flat firing pin on hammer indicates a rimfire cartridge.
The shape and length of the frame in the area behind the hammer and above the grips is somewhat unique.
Are the chambers bigger than a .22 rimfire round? Maybe .32 caliber (around .30" actual)?
Looks to be a Defender-type copy/clone. If it was made by one of the bigger-name companies of the mid-to-late 1800s, there would have been some markings, probably on the top of the frame above the cylinder. This is the closest thing I could find online:
Any guns of this type/era would be black-powder only; DO NOT try to shoot it with ANY modern ammo, even .22 Shorts or CBs.
