Best Of :: People & Places
Watching CNN's war coverage can be overwhelming, with all those talking heads spewing out acronyms and nicknames in some incomprehensible military jargon. There are so many references to Raptors, Falcons and Eagles, Blackhawks and Apaches, F-14s, 15s, 16s, 18s and 22s that you can't tell what the heck they're talking about -- football scores, maybe? But boning up on aviation history is easy at Wings Over the Rockies Museum, located on the former Lowry air base. The museum is a remnant of yesterday's glory, tucked in amid the nascent office parks and unsettlingly serene housing developments that are Lowry's present and future. As you approach the museum, the first thing you see is a massive B-52 bomber, part of an impressive collection of vintage aircraft that will give any aviation buff a lift. You'll find few World War II-era planes here, but the museum's assortment of jet aircraft is quite impressive. Highlights include an F-14 Tomcat, just like the one used in Top Gun, and the sleek B-1 bomber, with its payload of (inactive) cruise missiles. Be sure to check out the gift shop, where you can purchase a model B-52, made in Vietnam. Ah, the ironies of global power.
Greg Moore, a former managing editor with the Boston Globe who was cherry-picked by owner Dean Singleton for the position of Denver Post editor, has been on the job for less than a year, but he's already done what many observers thought would be impossible: He's got people talking about a paper previously regarded as stodgy and deadly dull. The Post isn't yet the great American newspaper that Moore and Singleton envision; there's still a long way to go. But Moore's energy and drive have helped make this goal seem like an actual possibility rather than the haziest of pipe dreams. The rest is up to him.
We'll admit it: At first the Rocky Mountain News's new design hurt our eyes, and we couldn't imagine how the paper would continue to fill its "channels" -- those left-hand columns earmarked for chatty tidbits, quotes and "by the numbers" trivia. But the News adjusted some type, we adjusted our expectations -- and the channels just kept getting better and better. The most successful of all: The Stump, with notes, odd news and observations from the campaign trail.
Two days after the new leaders of the Colorado General Assembly were sworn in this session, a correction appeared in the Denver Post: "Because of a reporter's error, Diane Carman's column on the Denver and the West cover Thursday incorrectly stated that Colorado House Speaker Lola Spradley's mother was among the family members at the Capitol on Wednesday to witness her swearing in. Spradley's mother is deceased." Easy mistake, though: In her speech, Spradley had referred to her mother, who passed away three decades earlier, looking "down from above." Guess Carman thought she wound up in the cheap seats.
In January, the Rocky Mountain News ran this correction on page two: "The cover photo of today's Spotlight section shows a snowshoer rather than a cross-country skier." Bet they know the difference now.
Welcome to the city of conditional love. You know about Denver's 300 days of sunshine a year, right? But nobody ever talks about the other 65 days, which are consumed by blizzards, tornadoes, wildfires, drought and calamity. The temperature here is mild, except when it isn't. Average precipitation is moderate, all of it coming in a single dump of snow that paralyzes the city for several weeks. We are the City of Trees, but in the post-blizzard weeks we become the City of Busted Trees (also the City of 10,000 Lakes). In the summer we bake in the cruel sun, except when we're pelted by guinea pig-sized hail. Our airport is terrific, except when it sucks. And did we mention the ever-evolving convention center, the wonderful freeway improvements known fondly as "T-Rex," and our very own Colorado Rockies? No, no, the pleasure is all ours. Well, mostly.

Brantley Gilbert Gets Therapy
Brantley Gilbert admits he went through some intense emotions during the making of his latest album, "Just As I Am," but that no topics were off limits in his songwriting. He considers writing songs a form of therapy, and holds nothing back.
"To me song writing is the purest form of expression outside of prayer," he says. "But it's also therapy. I feel like if you write a song the right way you relive it every time you sing it, but you also learn from it. [It] helps you cope with certain situations and look at 'em from the outside in. So I don't think there have ever been songs that are too personal. I try my best to bare my sleeve ... on all my records. What you see is what you get, and kind of be an open book."
"Just As I Am" is Brantley's third studio album. It has been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), for selling more than 500,000 units.

Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has played down a poll that shows a massive jump in support for the Labor party, saying the coalition always expected polls would tighten.
He attributed the bounce in ALP's popularity to the ousting of Julia Gillard, who struggled in the polls, as prime minister nearly three weeks ago.
"We always thought that the polls would tighten," Mr Abbott told Channel 9.
"What they're really doing is showing their relief at the departure of an unpopular prime minister."
The Nielsen poll published in Monday's Fairfax newspapers shows the ALP's primary support up a whopping 10 percentage points to 39 per cent compared to the coalition on 44, down three.
Mr Abbott said voters were reacting to the change in leadership.
"We're a fair minded people, we're prepared to give someone a fair go but I think what we'll discover is he's the same old Kevin Rudd and conclude that he had his chance before and he blew it."
The two-party preferred numbers put Labor at 50 per cent (up seven points) with the opposition also on 50, having lost seven points.
It is the first time in three years that Labor no longer trails the coalition in the two-party preferred vote.
Mr Abbott said nothing worthwhile comes easily.
"I've always known that I'm in the fight of my life."
The poll put Mr Rudd ahead of Mr Abbott 55 points to 41 as preferred prime minister, but deputy Liberal leader Julie Bishop believes the Labor leader's shine will fade.
"The last time Kevin Rudd was in the job his approval rating started very high and then plummeted when people realised the full extent of his incompetence and the chaos that he caused," Ms Bishop told ABC radio.
"After a little while his ratings plummeted and I expect that to be the same."
Ms Bishop said Mr Abbott will make a fine prime minister and dismissed talk that frontbencher Malcolm Turnbull would make a better party leader.
"Malcolm is an integral part of our team," she said, denying people have asked for the opposition communications spokesman to be reinstated as leader.
Mr Turnbull, who lost the Liberal party leadership to Mr Abbott in 2009, on Sunday ruled out having a tilt at his old job despite polls showing he was more popular than Mr Abbott.

Barone Fini Merlot 2009
Merlot from Italy
Winemaker's Notes
Flavors of rich, ripe cherries and plums are enriched by the smooth, deep, well-structured background. A beautifully balanced wine with a long, velvety finish.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "This clean, fleshy Merlot shows a base of smoke and spice, with accents of raspberry preserves, plum, violet and linzer torte."
Barone Fini Winery
Winemaking has consistently been part of our family business for at least six centuries and was officially recorded by the administration of the Republic of Venice on October 24, 1479 when we were given duty free privileges.
Today, we take a modern approach to winemaking with two primary objectives: first, producing quality, approachable wines, and second, keeping our family-owned and operated business market-nimble, involving all of the members of our immediate family.
Our wines are entirely grown and produced in the Trentino-Alto Adige area to our winemaking specifications, where for decades our long-standing relationships and knowledge of the area gives us access to the best grapes grown from the vineyards we choose. We have only produced D.O.C. wines, proving that our wines meet the highest standards from year to year. For generations Barone Fini wines have been produced with the minimal aid of human interference. Our family has always believed that maintaining the natural balance of the plant and making our wine with the least human intervention only makes sense. The Fini family's strong cultural history has always promoted culvitation techniques that minimize environmental impact. We guarantee we will continue to pursue our natural ways for generations to come. View all Barone Fini Wines
About Other ItalianLombardy, Emilia-Romagna, Umbria
LombardyHome of the fashion capital of Milan, Lombardy is not quite Italy's capital of wine. It is, however, home to a few wines worth noting. Most vineyards are far north, far south or far east. First, in the south, the sparkling wine Franciacorta – this sparkling wine is made in the methode champagnoise and the better wineries produce wine that can hold it's own in a quality bubbly line up. Lugana, a pleasant, white wine made from Trebbiano, comes from Lombardy as well. Lean reds from the Nebbiolo grape are made further up in the Valtelliana region, near the Alps.
Emilia-RomagnaThe region of Emilia-Romagna is better known for its food rather than wine. Most of the wine coming from this region is the red, slightly-fizzy Lambrusco. It's high in acid and best drunk young. The white coming out of the region is mostly Albana di Romagna. Made from the albana grape, it's typically dry and pleasant, although not found often.
UmbriaTalk about being in the center of things… the land-locked region of Umbria is smack dab in the middle of the country. The most familiar white wine of the region is Orvieto, named for the medieval Etruscan town. It's a Trebbiano-based wine with good fruit flavors and high acid. Originally a sweet wine, most Orvietos are now dry. Red wine from Umbria includes Torgiano and Montefalco - Torgiano made from the grapes of Chianti, while Montefalco uses the native sagrantino grape, making big and bold reds.
About Italy
A little ditty about Italy...This country has about as many wines as its had governments. With 20 different regions, hundreds of DOCs and even more indigenous varieties, the amount of wine made in Italy is mind-boggling. Most of the juice, however, remains in the country for thirsty Italians. Wine is food in Italy and its rare that a meal is consumed without a glass of vino. That said, it's not common to find many folks drinking wine without food either. In turn, it's a match, and a mighty good one at that. In fact, it's safe to say that Italian wine is a foodie wine – one that goes on the table for a myraid of meals.
For regions, the most popular are Tuscany (home of Chianti), Piedmont and the Tre-Venezie, which includes Veneto, Trentino Alto-Adige and Friuli. Other communes of note are in Southern Italy, and a few good wines are made elsewhere in the country. The islands of Sardinia and Sicily are members of the Italian winemaking community as well.

The Law Society of Northern Ireland has changed its regulations after an Office of Fair Trading (OFT) investigation.
The OFT found that the society prohibited solicitors from fee advertising and comparative fee advertising. It also found that the society banned solicitors paying referral fees to non-lawyers as well as soliciting to existing and potential clients.
The Law Society of Northern Ireland has since amended its practice regulations.
Director of competition enforcement at the OFT Vincent Smith said the society's amendments relating to fees would encourage competition on price by enabling prospective clients to compare solicitors' rates.
"The introduction of greater competition between solicitors in Northern Ireland will bring benefits to consumers," he said. "Relaxing the restrictions on soliciting will allow solicitors, and small firms in particular, to compete more effectively for clients."
The OFT closed its file on the Law Society of Northern Ireland after it had made the changes to its regulations. The OFT made no decision as to whether the society's practice regulations infringed competition law.

Sailing with the Graduates: Carnival Triumph Cruise Review by azrayne
Overall Member Rating
Sailing with the Graduates
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Miami
Returned our rental car and got to the port early, around 1045am. Lines were fairly short and we were quickly checked-in for the cruise. We were able to board around 1145ish. After getting on board we made our way to our room, which was not ready yet, however, we were able to drop off our carry-ons. When we were at the room, I left a note for our room steward letting him know that we needed the beds to be separated as there were 3 of us in the room and I certainly was not sleeping next to my mom, who decided to come on the trip. Our room steward happily made this arrangement for us. Went upstairs for the More first drink of the day and to see the huge smile on my son's face and his remarks, "This is really cool." Slowly the other 30 people in our group made it onboard to begin the celebration of our kids HS graduation.
Not having anything to base a "good" ship from a "bad" ship on other than my own opinions and reviews from CruiseCritic.com, I found the Triumph to be quite nice. There was nothing specifically in appearance that made me think that this ship was not in tip top shape. There were always people around cleaning and making things look good.
Some comments had been made about setting sail while at muster drill and as a first cruise, I was concerned that this was going to happen. I didn't want to miss out on anything. I had nothing to worry about as we did not leave the port until well after the muster drill.
Our bags arrived before dinner so I had a chance to unpack. There was plenty of storage and drawer space in the room. We actually did not even use 1 of the closets. The bathroom had plenty or storage space under the sink. I did bring an over-the-door organizer which proved to be quite useful in holding all the items that might have ended up on the limited vanity space in the room. I'm glad I brought it because I almost left it at home based upon some comments from previous cruisers. With 3 people in an inside room, the extra storage for small items was useful.
Dinner was good most nites. However, I guess I was expecting something over the top on formal nite and unfortunately I did not find that to be the case. On formal nite they had lobster (which I don't eat seafood at all due to allergies) and prime rib. In all honesty the steak I had the previous evening was 100% better than the prime rib. The prime rib was overcooked, dry and lacking any flavor. After all the raving on the website, I was looking for to an amazing meal. Overall, I enjoyed my meals on board. I never made it to the south beach buffet for lunch or dinner because I can't stand waiting in line to get food. Breakfast was ok as I was up usually before the buffet opened so I was able to get my food very quickly when it did open. Lunch was in the Paris dining room a couple of days. The food was good, but the bar staff was over aggressive. In the matter of 10 minutes, I had 4 different people come and ask if I wanted anything from the bar. 2 of the most memorable items I had onboard at dinner where 2 appetizers on the same night. The first was steak skewers that were grilled followed by chicken soup with lemongrass and coconut milk. AMAZING combination. We visited 3 ports, Cozumel, Grand Caymans and Jamaica.
Cozumel- We booked the dune buggies through Island Marketing. For $89 we got our monies worth and had an amazing time. 15 people from our group went. Oscar, our guide, took us snorkeling for about an hour where we saw eels, a barracuda and misc other colorful fish. The water was great for 1st time snokelers as the water was not rough and he was patient. From there he took us on a tour of the island where we went to El Cedral, the 1st mayan ruins in Cozumel were found here and to the east side of the island where there were actual waves at the ocean. While swimming, Oscar prepared an awesome lunch of chicken, pico de gallo, guacamole and flour tortillas for us. Everyone chowed down. From there we continued on to the Casa Antigua, the tequila museum, where we proceeded to try at least 15 different tequilas and were treated to a tour on how they make tequila. For 5-6 hours we were treated to a great time in Cozumel and everyone had the best time. The ones who did not come with us, were very disappointed after hearing about the day we had. BTW, this tour included unlimited water, soda and beers. Each dune buggy had a cooler and was refilled at each stop.
Grand Caymans - I booked a tour with Nativeway which included sting ray city, snorkeling and rum point beach. The water here is beautiful and the people were great. Where sting ray city is is out in the middle of the ocean. After a 30 minute boat ride out we came to the sandbar where we would encounter the sting rays. The snorkeling here was not as great as in Cozumel as I'm a novice and the water was rougher and I did not completely know where to look. We had no guide for this. It was a wander on your own for 45 minutes and then come back to the boat. This was a bit disappointing. However, once on the boat heading to Rum Point, this was quickly made up with rum punches. Rum Point included lunch and the beach is pretty neat. We only had an hour there and once done with lunch it was just about time to get back on the boat. I could have passed on the snorkeling and just gone to the beach instead and I would have been happy. There is a bar and gift shop at Rum Point but keep in mind everything is listed in Cayman dollars, which is about $.20 to $.25 more per dollar than US dollars. Cost $60 + tip
Jamaica - Again I booked a tour with Island Marketing for the Catamaran and Dunns Falls tour. When we got off the ship we had about an hour and a half to kill before we met the group. So we decided to take a short walk into town. BIG MISTAKE. From the moment we left the secured port area, we were harassed by taxi vendors who wanted us to hire them to see the island. A polite no thank did not work. They often continued to walk with us trying to convince us to go with them. Telling them we already had plans booked did not work either. We spent about an hour wandering again, being harassed and then I was done and said I would go back to port and wait for our meet n greet for the excursion. Jamaica is a beautiful country and I certainly would have loved to see more but I don't like being harassed as we were. I know that had I gotten away from the touristy areas I would have discovered more of its beauty.
The excursion though was good. The best part being the sailing after Dunns Falls. We boarded at the port our catamaran. There were a total of 8 of us to their 5 crew members. Again snorkeling was rough for first timers and there were several on-board (some even newer than me, like my mom). Our guide was great though and showed us the difference on urchins that would hurt us and those that would not. He also fed the fish by opening a urchin as opposed to milkbones. He also showed us a reef starfish, which looks like a spider, and reminded me of the spiderman movie. I'm weird ok..... From there we went to Dunns Falls and they handed us off to a guide. At first it seemed as if we were going to have a great time. He by-passed the line of people by taking an alternate route up. However, by doing so, we manager to miss some great photo ops that were at some of the falls. He had us up to the top in about 20 minutes, which is much quicker than any other tour that was there. He practically threw a hissy fit because he did think that the $25 tip he received was enough. Well duh....you raced us past all the photo ops and didn't give us a chance to take them ourselves. He did not deserve the $25 let alone anymore. ANYWAYS, we then boarded the catamaran again and went sailing for about an hour and and half. For me, this was amazing time. I chilled and let the crew keep my rum punch glass full, which they did. They brought us right to the pier were we got off and jumped on the ship. Cost $69 + tips Disembarkation- We did checking of bags the previous evening and had originally received zone 24. Knowing that we had to get to Ft. Lauderdale for a flight I went to the pursuers desk and got a lower #, 3. However, after reading the capers from the room, i saw that we would have enough time so we used the zone 24 instead of 3. Good and bad. Good as we got into port early and at 715am they were calling for zone 3 to go ahead and get off. I was still asleep. As 10a came I started getting nervous as they were only at zone 14. Yikes!!! This was bad, now I was concerned about getting off in time. We went to Rome lounge and managed to get off the ship within 30 minutes. So it all worked out. Now we know, do the self-assist or get the lower number zone and get off when your ready.
The only negative I had on this trip was the god awful wake-up call I got every day of the cruise at about 3am. It sounded as if someone was down below or in the walls, with a metal wrench banging the crap out of the metal pipes. Every day from 3am-5am this went on. The first day I thought it was a 1 time occurrence. The 2nd day I was pissed. By the 3rd day the pursuers desk got a very rude and sailors mouthful at 3am. They apologized but said they were unaware of anything that could be causing this. Of course, when they came to the room, the noise would stop, as all things like this happen. The 4th-7th day I called the pursuers desk between 3am-5am, whenever my wake-up came so that they were aware of the disturbance. By the 4th day, they sent down some ear plugs. By the 6th day they acknowledged that there was a problem and sent me a $175 OBC for the problem. Nice, but it did take away some of my cruise experience.
I didn't stay out and watch all the shows or go dancing or attend the art auctions, all things I planned on doing, since I was sleep deprived . So it did take away from the vacation. However, I will cruise again and I will cruise with Carnival and I will hit the Caribbean again! Less

OUr room 1309 had a daily wake-up call at about 3am which lasted until 5am. It sounded as if someone were in the walls and under the room with a metal wrench and banged on the metal pipes below us. Pursuers desk was not helpful in solving the problem...though they did place ear plugs in the room.Read All Interior (4A) Reviews >>

Ramtron International Corporation (Nasdaq: RMTR), a leading developer and supplier of non-volatile ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM) and integrated semiconductor products, expanded its line of +125 degrees Celsius FRAM memory automotive devices. The FM25L04-GA , a 4Kb (kilobit), 3 volt, serial peripheral interface (SPI) FRAM, is now Grade 1 AEC-Q100-specified to operate over the automotive temperature range of -40ºC to +125ºC and is guaranteed to retain data for 9,000 hours at that extreme temperature.
The FM25L04-GA is already designed into advanced powertrain systems where FRAM is required to record data quickly and frequently so that the gearbox can continually adapt itself to changing driver behaviour and road conditions. FRAM's No Delay(TM) writes and virtually unlimited endurance, coupled with a high-speed SPI interface, uniquely enables reliable data writes at maximum bus speed in this and other advanced automotive applications.
"Ramtron's FRAM has been accepted as a mainstream memory technology in intelligent automotive applications in the passenger cab and under the hood," says Duncan Bennett, Ramtron International Strategic Marketing Manager. "Ramtron is growing its line of Grade 1 automotive parts to meet the emerging demands of automobile manufacturers worldwide."
About the FM25L04-GA
The FM25L04-GA is a 4Kb non-volatile RAM with an industry-standard SPI that enhances the high-speed write capability of FRAM technology. The device is a direct hardware replacement for equivalent EEPROMs, yet far superior because of its fast writes, virtually unlimited endurance, and low operating currents. The FM25L04-GA reads and writes at bus speeds up to 10MHz and boasts an advanced write protection scheme to prevent inadvertent writes and data corruption. It is guaranteed to retain data for 9,000 hours at +125ºC as well as 17 years at +55ºC degrees and operates at 3V over the automotive temperature range. The FM25L04-GA is available in a "green" 8-pin SOIC package.
FRAM in intelligent automotive electronics
FRAM's fast writes and high endurance make it an ideal memory for data collection and storage. As more sensors are designed into the car, more data needs to be collected. FRAM NoDelay(TM) writes facilitates the collection of more data at higher frequencies, allowing intelligent automotive applications to act on the timeliest information available. FRAM is designed into a multitude of sophisticated automotive electronics systems worldwide such as smart airbags, event data recorders, adaptive cruise control, powertrain, active steering, infotainment, diagnostics, anti-pinch/trap windows, etc. The current Grade 1 qualification will enable designers to benefit from FRAM in systems throughout the car.

I saw this on Facebook, and thought I'd share it here, even though I don't really like it – for reasons I'll comment on below.
Why am I not delighted? It isn't because I object in principle to science fiction doing potentially irreverent things with religious material – after all, I previously shared these. It is the actual execution that I was disappointed with. For instance, if you are going to have fezzes and bow ties be forever, even though they are particularly (but not exclusively) associated with the Eleventh Doctor, then surely the prayer should end with "Geronimo" and not "Allons-y."
But such complaints aside, it was clearly necessary to share it here, since it intersects two interests of mine, Christianity and Doctor Who, and thus relates directly to a major theme of this blog. And it ties in directly with some major themes at the intersection of Doctor Who and Christianity – from the facile treatments by Christians of the Doctor as a Christ-figure, to the show's posing of questions such as "Whom do Time Lords pray to?"
What do you think of this – and how could we make something better along the same lines?
Of related interest, see "Sargeant Pepper Pots" in The New Statesman on the cultural significance of the Daleks, and Matt Ashton's online article on the politics of Doctor Who.

Over the past six-plus weeks, the Toronto Raptors have posted an unimpressive 10-14 record. What is impressive, is the dramatic swing the team took from horrid to great within that stretch. They lost an impressive 12 of 13 games early on, then won 8 of 9 later. They're currently riding a 2-game losing streak as they wait, rested, for this beleaguered Sixers team in Toronto.
Previews seem so pointless when the Sixers are playing like this. Let DeRozan shoot jumpers, don't let Calderon, Lowry or Alan Anderson get open looks from three. Keep Ed Davis and Amir Johnson off the offensive glass and Kyle Lowry off the free throw line. Pretty simple.
On the offensive end, continue to make Jrue do everything because no one else has a pulse, then blame him when he performs and the rest of the team continues to miss shots.
Sound like a plan? Oh, almost forgot. Every time Turner grabs a defensive rebound, make sure he either (a) throws a long pass out of bounds, missing a guy streaking for an open layup (happens at least once a game) or (b) "pushes" the ball up the floor at his top speed (which is a brisk jog for a legitimate NBA athlete), then commence dribbling in place until he can get to his spot and miss a 19-foot jumper without even looking at any of his teammates. And always remember, Doug Collins made Turner this way.
The tip is at 7pm. Use this as your game thread, if you must. I'll be watching on DVR until my eyes bleed and I need to soothe myself to sleep watching Sam Malone and Diane Chambers deny the inevitable.

Jason Trawick has another important role in Britney Spears' life besides fiance and manager: co-conservator. Trawick will share the responsibilities of Spears' affairs with her father Jamie: the former will manage her personal decisions, while the latter will focus on her estate.
Jamie Spears was reportedly "thrilled" at the news, as Britney can now purchase a Beverly Hills home she's had her eye on. It's widely thought that this marks one step closer in the quest for Britney to regain control over her own affairs.
Do you think Jason Trawick will make a good co-conservator for Britney Spears?

Dubai Customs and Ministry of Education has recently proclaimed the start of "Inter-School Contest for Dubai Customs IPR Award Fifth Cycle" for the year 2010-2011 inviting all government and private schools to take part.
This came during the meeting that was held at the Ministry of Education's main building in Dubai. Time arrangements and action plans for the requirements of the contesting projects organized under the sponsorship of Dubai Customs in coordination with the Ministry of Education have been decided.
The meeting was attended by parties from Dubai Customs, namely, Yousif Aziz Mubarak – Senior Manager of IPR Dept, Mahbooba Bager Hussain- Manager of Customs Awareness & Education Sec at IPR Dept, and from the Ministry of Education, Wafa Alabar an acting Director of the Student Activities Dept and some representatives from the schools which submitted applications of participation.
Yousif Aziz said: "This contest is open to all 6th graders up to 12th graders in all schools across the country. Each team from every involved school is expected to prepare, organize and carry out a program in the field of IPR with the aim of serving specific objectives, such as enhancement of a sense of belonging, nationalism, voluntarism amongst all students from government and private schools, thus supporting national identification, establishing IPR orientation and guidance, innovation, protecting the community from commercial and industrial frauds and controlling exploitation of innovative ideas. The organization of this contest comes in line with Dubai Customs continued efforts in enhancing public awareness towards the protection of IPR.
Mahbooba Baqer Hussain explained that the contest is achieving continued success every year. She said: "Requests for new registration and participation are increasing, and we have not put a limit for the schools because the numbers of the participants are growing every year, but the participating projects proposed by the schools must be in compliance to the criteria and objective requirements which have been defined during the workshop earlier held over the past period in coordination with the Ministry of Education and through the circulars noted to the education zones.
On her side, Wafa Alabbar, an acting Director of Student Activities at the Ministry of Education, on behalf of the ministry expressed appreciation towards Dubai Customs for the efforts done in spreading awareness of the importance of intellectual property rights. She also praised the initiative adopted by Dubai Customs to have launched this award to students for the last 4 years, noting that the new promising youths are in need of such education and culture to maintain themselves, their families and the entire society, and also the youths need to conceive the necessity of maintaining rights of intellectual property & innovation and keep these rights safe from any potential violation. This award reflects a tangible example of the government partnership due to its general benefits and positive impact to society and it goes paralleling inline with directions of our wise leadership, she said.
The qualified schools, whose projects are to be nominated for the contest within a week, shall choose teamwork members of 15 students in addition to 2 supervisors who will be assigned with the task of drafting out an action plan for carrying out these projects in line with the award key objective requirements. The projects are expected to include events and activities in which students, parents and the local community can participate.

text: We heard a strong rumour about this at the start of last week, but now the Samsung Galaxy Music is official.In truth, not a lot has changed and we're still missing those vital details of availability and price. But judging by the specification and features, this is likely to be a low to mid-range handset, albeit one that comes with Ice Cream Sandwich from launch. Not bad for a cheapie.The phone is said to be powered by a single core 850MHz processor, with a 3-inch 240x320 QVGA display, a 3-megapixel camera, 4GB of internal memory and a microSD slot also present. Dual front speakers justify the 'Music' tag, as does compatibility with a wide range of music formats, including FLAC, AAC and OGG, with the handset also offering Sound Alive and SRS audio modes, along with a dedicated music player button and FM radio. If loud music is top of your priority list, you'll find much to admire here.Samsung also mentions a WVGA projector built into the handset. Some have already cast doubt on that suggestion, based on the initial images and shape of the phone. You might want to double check that one before you buy if it's a deal breaker.As we said, we're still waiting for the pricing and shelf date, but when it does arrive, it will be in both single and dual-SIM varieties.

Let me start this review by stating that I am in no way a Lord of the Rings fanboy.

I will do my best to look at the game's strengths and flaws in an objective manner regardless.

The Lord of the Rings: War in the North takes players to an area untouched by Tolkien and the movies. The game introduces an entire new story line, a marvelous soundtrack, and fun co-op RPG action. The game also brands an M rating thanks to the savage combat system.What the game lacks is "guts." Snowblind Studious took no risks when it came to stepping outside the box.

The Lord of the Rings: War in the North is one of the most poorly timed released games I can think of in recent history. Releasing a game between BF3, MW3, Uncharted 3 and TeS: Skyrim is like making a game and then figuratively shooting it in the foot.

This game is just straight-up busted! There really is no other way of saying it, the game is broken.

You need something like
Typically, to track changes in selection, you would add a change listener to the selected item property, rather than using a mouse event handler (though I think you still need to check for the case where nothing is selected).

I've recently discovered 2 bugs, which are related to the selection model of ListView and are related to different values in getSelectedItem() and getSelectedItems().get(0)
Maybe you encountered a third one.

If the power supply can deliver 24volts at 9amps, it would be no less happy than if it was providing 12volts at 9amps with a few voltage regulators.Ā Voltage regulators seem like the least ideal way to go.

ADDITIONALLY, TEJ's that I've seen are designed, actually, for 18v.Ā This seems to be the standard.Ā Just because they were marketed for a 12v power system doesn't mean they can't be used for something more.Ā Find the source of your TEJ's and read their papers.

If you want to get crazy, so long as they don't get too hot, there is really nothing preventing them from taking more voltage.Ā An "18v" TEJ can probably take 24v...but I won't take responsibility if you smoke them ;-)

The trick with TEJ's is that you need a TEJ that uses AT LEAST as much power, in watts, as the heat you are trying to dissipate, in watts, and then you need a slug of metal that can easily dissipate all that heat.Ā You REALLY need to over design your cooling system.

So, whatever you are doing, using two TEJ's in series will allow not just for double the cooling power, but also double the surface area for heat sinks.Ā This fact alone makes me side with the "run two in series" folks.

Nick! I have silently read many of your posts and came to the same

in this very basic data manipulation. I am grateful to you always for
your constructive guidance adding always to my knowledge of using
I did the following and came with the new date variable which is now a
numeric serries but having missing entries for the missing dates which
I can use equally as my day variable. The resultant and original dates
are now after changing the format of day variable in Excel which I
think can be done in Stata.

Everton lost the last unbeaten record in the Premier League on Saturday lunchtime after defeat at Manchester City and they slipped out of the last four at the same time.
Prior to that fans had been talking about possibly landing a Champions League place at the end of the season but Martinez has been quick to play down expectations.
"We are still very early in the season, it would be foolish for us to be saying that now," he told the Post. "We need to use the first two-thirds of the season to see how many points we can get.
"Then we'd go into the last third fighting for it. I'm very pleased with the squad, we have a great mixture of young talent and experience and it excites me - but it's too early to say what we'll be fighting for."

The IP330 had weirdness in the NIC configs - mainly they all defaulted to
a MAC address of ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. To fix this what I did was write the image
to a drive (a smaller one than the 8GB one that came with it BTW) and then boot
it on another PC with a couple of fxp (intel) nics and get the initial NIC config
done. THen I rebooted into FreeBSD on the same box and mounted the m0n0wall drive
onto the freebsd box. Once mounted I edited config.xml and added a statement to
each NIC of <spoofmac> (make up a MAC address here) </spoofmac>. As long as the
made up MAC address is unique on your LAN you're OK.
Once this was written out I put the drive back in the IP330 and proceeded as normal.

This review is from: Linksys EA3500 App Enabled N750 Dual-Band Wireless Router with Gigabit and USB
Pros: Simultaneous Dual band, supports both 2.4, 5.8GHz bands.
Sleek looking, with integrated antennae (good WAF).
Guest network with web-login (2.4GHz only)
Easily access router my typing ( myrouter.local ) in web browser address bar
Seems stable (works without reboot for a few weeks) with a network of 10 devices including laptops, desktops, smartphones, printers, etc.
Gigabit LAN.
Cons: One of the most difficult routers for the novice users to set up.
The recommended way to setup with DVD is obsolete (None of my home computers have spinning disks / drives anymore)
Menu is extremely complicated (Dyndns under security menu??)
LAN IP addresses are 10.211.XXX.XXX (Seriously??)
Sometimes accessing the router through web interface throws a "Bad Gateway error", and takes a good one minute to load
Changing DNS servers is tucked away under local network menu instead of WAN menu.
Changing some settings (like something under QoS menu or changing DNS server for e.g. )will crash the router and it will need a hard reboot.
QoS implementation is a mess (reduced the speed of my 20MBps Internet to 12Mbps using both router's speedtest app as well as on my laptop)
This router does not yet have a killer app/feature that distinguishes it from the rest of the simultaneous dual band products.
Other Thoughts: This router seems like a work in progress, with Linksys (Now Belkin) moving towards cloud accessibility of its routers and have started selling additional router apps.
Most of the important settings are tucked away under random menu names.
QoS needs a lot of polishing and is still beta IMO.
Sometimes the 5.8GHz wireless SSID shows up as MarvellAP8X.
Hopefully Linksys will fix these pending issues soon with a well tested firmware or allow open-source firmwares.
This review is from: BUFFALO DriveStation 2TB USB 3.0 External Desktop Hard Drive HD-LC2.0U3
Pros: This is a nice looking, (a good combo of glossy (on the sides) and matte on top / bottom) External USB 3 drive.
Saw decent transfer rates between 50MB/s to 110MB/s when backing up data on it.
Can stand both horizontally and vertically without any external attachments, which is a good feature that many external drives lack.
Cons: Slightly bulkier than other 2TB external hdds.
Other Thoughts: was pretty silent.
usual usb3.0 data cable.
an adapter needs to be plugged in to supply power.
This review is from: Coboc CY-CAT5E-07-Orange 7ft. 30AWG Cat 5E Orange Color 350MHz UTP Flat Ethernet Stranded Copper Patch cord /Molded Network lan Cable
Pros: It's an ethernet cable. It's colorful. Wife loves the bright color.
Cons: none

June 6, 2012
Source: Deadline
While the internet is buzzing about his upcoming Tarantino western Django Unchained (check out the first trailer), Jamie Foxx is about to move up the societal ladder from bounty hunter to politician. Deadline reports Foxx is in negotiations to play the President of the United States in Roland Emmerich's White House Down, an action thriller that stars Channing Tatum as a Secret Service agent tasked with protecting the President during a hostile takeover. He'll follow in the footsteps of fellow black actors Morgan Freeman (Deep Impact) and Dennis Haysbert ("24") as one of the few black actors to portray an American president.
Of course, Freeman & Haysbert aren't the only black actors to play presidents - you can check Wikipedia for a more detailed list - but those two are arguably the most iconic. As a matter of fact, Danny Glover played the U.S. President in Emmerich's last film that wasn't a period piece, the disaster porn movie 2012. Foxx would be in good company if this deal comes through, and hopefully his character in White House Down will have some similarities to Harrison Ford's President in Air Force One because it would be great to see Foxx and Tatum kicking ass side by side. There still aren't a ton of details available for this movie, but chances are pretty good that if Emmerich is involved, we can at least expect a few explosions. The Amazing Spider-Man and Zodiac's James Vanderbilt wrote the script. There's no start date yet. Good casting?

Although a survey of the public's attitudes was conducted by an outside consultant, the information most relevant to the ongoing condition of the community was handled by the council, City Manager Nelson Fialho and his management team. Using national data for a city with Pleasanton's 72,000 population and land area, the in-house survey team also used the city's General Plan with its myriad policies, regulations and goals as the key measuring device. Because of the inaugural scope of the report, some measures were developed for the first time, but this data will now be available for the annual and similar surveys Fialho and his team plan to conduct.
The survey took a qualitative look at the community, with the consultant's polling measuring people's attitude about the community. As a follow-up, the in-house team then measured various activities, including public safety, infrastructure, economic development, the public library, community services and the administration of Pleasanton's municipal financing. It looked at targets, such as the General Plan, asking if there are any GP goals and objectives that are known to be in the plan but that haven't really been tested to determine whether or not those goals are being met. The team also looked at all of the specific and master plans that have been written over the years and are still in force, as well as more broad-based industry standards.
For example, the General Plan calls for a 4-minute response time for emergency calls by the police department. It also states that as the city grows, the goal continues to maintain that 4-minute response time. The analysis concluded police do respond within 4 minutes and have met that target for at least the last three years. If police don't hit that target in future years, the new metric system now in place will alert the city and police department managers to ask why. Is the city growing too fast? Has it not allocated enough police officers for that activity? Is there something wrong with the police dispatch system that needs to be re-engineered or analyzed? It leads to questions and management solutions that may otherwise not have been addressed because those standards and goals were not being highlighted in the public document now created.
In the street department, the city puts a lot of resources towards maintenance, including resurfacing city streets. While there's no standard in the General Plan on how to maintain streets, there is a public engineers' industry standard. It's called the pavement management index. And, nationally, that number for a community Pleasanton's size and for the amount of roads here is 75. That basically involves having engineers who go out to survey the city to determine whether or not our streets are failing. They rate each street segment, and then the average is calculated. The goal is to always be above 75; our rating is 80.
So every year going forward, the city's in-house team will monitor the street department's reports to make sure Pleasanton is staying above the index. If it's not, city officials will look to see if appropriate resources are being applied toward street maintenance or if the city's repair and replacement strategy might be flawed.
Another example as to how the new city measuring system will be used affects parks. The General Plan calls for the city to have 5 acres of parkland for every 1,000 residents. Although that's been assumed, it's never been precisely measured. It now has and the results show that Pleasanton actually has about 7.5 acres for every 1,000 residents. That's a standard the city will seek to maintain as its population grows.
Those who want to see the full report can ask to view it at the office of the City Clerk Karen Diaz at Pleasanton City Hall. It's well worth the time to see how the city measures up on maintaining the quality of life we enjoy here.

New York City -- A report released Tuesday by Deloitte said that consumer spending continued its decline in May, weighed down by a sharp rise in unemployment claims.
The Deloitte Consumer Spending Index, which tracks consumer cash flow as an indicator of future consumer spending, fell to 2.66%, from a gain of 3.29% in April. The Index is comprised of tax burden, initial unemployment claims, real wages and real home prices.
"The labor market indicators are the primary cause of weakness in the Index, however the economy is up against other temporary headwinds that suggest weak growth may persist for the near term," said Carl Steidtmann, Deloitte's chief economist and author of the monthly Index. "Rising food and energy prices continue to hurt real wages, which combined with Americans' insecurities about the job market, compound the pressure on consumer spending."

Stars of "Total Recall" Continue to Stun at Irish Premiere
Getting all glammed up for another cinematic-filled evening, the stars of "Total Recall" were spotted arriving at the Irish premiere of their latest film in Dublin on Tuesday evening (August 14).
The starring ladies of the film, Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale, showed off their stunning looks once again as the 30-year-old rocked a strapless gold structured frock while her 39-year-old co-star opted for a pop of color in a bright pink one-shoulder, full-length gown.
Giving the gals some eye candy on the red carpet of the Savoy Cinema hosted evening was handsome Irish-born actor and fellow star of the action-packed flick, Colin Farrell. The notorious Hollywood bad boy looked dapper in a gray suit while he signed autographs and posed for pictures before heading in for the event.
The Len Wiseman directed sci-fi adventure follows a factory worker, Douglas Quaid (Farrell), who begins to suspect that he is a spy after visiting Rekall, a company that provides its clients with implanted fake memories of a life they would like to have led. The procedure goes terribly wrong and he quickly finds himself on the run.
As previously reported by GossipCenter, the "Recall" castmates have been quite the jetsetters. They just made their way from Berlin, Germany yesterday (August 13) where they were also promoting the movie.

There are plenty of computers at the libraries that can be used, by all status classes.
I got Comcast internet for 14.99/month for a year, and this article is telling me Mountain View and Los Alto folks can't afford something like this? But of course the same families can spend 80-100dollars on TV to watch soccer sports? Or buy 12 packs of beer daily. I don't believe this story at all, it's a ploy for sympathy. The POOOR Children.

Right, because most families leave TV and beer budget decisions to their children.
If you want to rectify the former you must educate the latter.

@Hmm (example of beat-up-the-poor-and-huddled-masses negativity?) I prefer the poet's view of that!
Comcast Internet is $10 per month for school families that qualify for Economically Disadvantaged status. (+ $100 towards laptop/netbook). Neither of the School Boards (who all got a message from Comcast) has discussed this on an Agenda or bothered to implement this. Why? I'm a MVWSD Board member - And I don't know why the majority (or Administration) in not interested. This money is required by Comcast's past corporation 'public good works' projects required by their past corporate mergers (less competition - require more public benefit). For MVWSD there are 40% of the Middle School students who qualify. About the same # (20% of enrollment) in the MVLA district.
This is a public benefit entitlement for the Taxpayers - a good question for The CANDIDATES! (MVWSD & MVLASD). Why is this $$ being ignored?
Don't miss out on the discussion!

We're pumped, especially our ears.
Building on the success of its recently launched fashionable (and some might say over-the-top) Superior Club Sound headphone range, Pioneer has revealed the un-decked out versions, appealing to those that prefer simplicity, classiness and sleek finishes.
But don't be dismayed that the range isn't going to rock your catwalk; the range's "Super Bass" feature should add a bounce in your step while rocking out to the latest tunes on the headphones.
Pioneer surely believes in spoiling us for choice. The range consists of two in-ear units (the SE-CX9 and SE-CX8), and two comfortable on-ear models (the SE-MX9 and SE-MX7).
You don't have to be a DJ to own the SE-MX9. The headphone is equipped with two newly designed, high performance 50mm drivers – the same that you find on the HDJ-2000 high-end headphones DJs use to get the highest sound quality.
Choices, choices
The SE-MX7 has no less than four drivers for midrange and bass on both sides, for you to recreate the club sound experience just for your ears. For the heavy party animals, its Advanced Bass Level Control lets you tweak the bass on the fly – a handy tool for the likes of Avicii tunes.
The SE-CX9 and the SE-CX8 in-ear headphones are full of feels too, with the bass exciters housed at the back of the ear buds, vibrating perfectly in sync with the music.
You can pick up the SE-CX8 and SE-MX7 for S$299, while the SE-CX9 and the SE-MX9 costs S$399.
And because we love our readers, we're giving you a chance to put these headphones on and have a listen. Just drop by Funan DigitaLife Mall this weekend and check out Pioneer's clubber headphones and four of its designer Superior Club Sound headphones. Don't forget, you'll also get to meet our Cover Girl Search finalists too. Be there or be square.

Collected: 17 ways to get on top of the clutter
Learn how to organise your home, bust clutter and improve storage in your home on Village Voices The Organised Life page, brought to you by Officeworks.
Each week Maxabella showcases a collection of things from around the internet that have helped her solve a problem. This week, getting rid of the clutter!
I'm in the middle of a giant declutter at our place. Everyone is changing bedrooms and my need for clean horizontal surfaces has never been higher. I'm almost embarrassed to tell you that so far I have hauled out eight full garbage bags of… stuff from my daughter's room. Big, fat garbage bags, some marked for charity, some sadly only good for the bin. Where does all this stuff come from in the first place? I swear I only buy half of it and then it breeds. Paper is a prolific breeder, closely followed by clothing and books which are surely self-fertilising. But the high-achiever when it comes to accumulation has got to be Useless Little Plastic Bits (ULPB). I swear one full garbage bag was filled entirely with ULPBs. One day the world will be completely overrun with ULPB and the walls of our houses will be made out of them.
Here are a few ways to stay on top of it all.
Set the timer
Christie wrote a great post over at Childhood 101 where she talked about setting a timer to get young children involved in household chores. I've taken this idea on board, but I'm using it to motivate me. I set the timer for ten minutes and I work hard sorting through a drawer or a cupboard for those ten minutes and when the time is up I go and do something that I like. If I promise to set the timer at least 4 times an hour, I'm really making in-roads.
1. Have a place for everything
It's a lot easier to stay on top of everything when you've got an allocated place for each thing. Make a place straightaway whenever something new comes into the house. Actually, know in your head where something is going to fit in before you even buy it…
2. Sell stuff
It's wonderful to donate to charity, but earning cash can be even more motivating. You can sell all your grown out of' stuff through a garage sale, by setting up a stall at a children's market (find a market near you through Market's Central) or by an online market like eBay or Muma's Market (which is set up exclusively for buying and selling children's stuff… warning, you will probably be very tempted to buy as well!). You can also take a look at Kidspot Market, which is free, or have a think about getting a stall at Baby & Kids Market.
3. Don't buy clutter in the first place
Even though I'm positive that I don't buy very much stuff and that it is actually capable of cloning itself to make more, I do realise that as the main household purchaser, it's really all down to me. If I don't buy it, it doesn't exist.
4. Investigate what's out there
A solution to every clutter problem is just a click away. Google your issue and you'll be amazed at the solutions the clever people have come up with!
5. Try before you buy
Make sure a clutter solution is going to work the way you and your family do! There's nothing worse than buying a whole new filing system that no-one wants to use. Try out some of these ideas at your place. Just hit 'Next' to see another 12 ideas from the gallery. Click on the source below the image from more information and ideas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to get approval from the city? How much does it cost?
It's very likely that a permit is required by your city. It's in fact better you get a permit because the city helps you by inspecting the pool demolition process and makes sure either you or your contractor does it to code. Take a look at a sample swimming pool permit from the city of Sunnyvale in California.
Also, the city usually includes material that says what can be done in the filled up area. For instance, most pool demolitions are done in such a way that you can landscape that area afterwards, but not build a house. Such informative material the city provides you would be valuable in understanding what can be done in the filled-in pool area.
The cost usually runs in hundreds of dollars. Check with your city for the exact amount.

And, now that I'm done informing you, the front page article from the San Francisco Chronicle today just feels good: Prop 8 Backlash Grows. Now that we're done feeling sad, lets start getting angry, because we've got work to do.

Marine spatial planning in Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs)
The idea here is to develop comprehensive plans to cover multiple uses of large areas that encompass systems that are well-defined in biophysical terms but that often cut across jurisdictional boundaries. The Arctic Council has identified 17 LMEs located in the Arctic. The Canada-US pilot project in the Beaufort Sea, now evolving under the auspices of PAME, exemplifies this approach. The new report of the US Ocean Task Force is based squarely on the idea of Coastal and Marine Spatial Planning (CMSP).

North Korea will boost its nuclear deterrent force to protect itself against war, a foreign ministry spokesman said in an official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) report.
The US plan "is the most outright hostile act against the DPRK (North Korea) as it is a system to wage a war against the DPRK and, furthermore, a part of its unchallenged attempt to dominate the Asia-Pacific region," the spokesman said.
"The DPRK will increase its nuclear deterrent force in every way and take a decisive counter-measure for self-defence when necessary in order to avert a war and defend peace in the Korean peninsula and the rest of northeast Asia," he said.
The planned deployment and US and Japan military exercises "indicate that they are stepping up the preparations for the second Korean war in real earnest behind the scene of dialogue and this has already gone beyond the danger line," he said.
The US plan to deploy the destroyer equipped with the Aegis radar-combat system in the Sea of Japan (East Sea) in September has been welcomed by Japan as a deterrent against ballistic missiles.
Japan has been conducting joint research with the United States on developing a sophisticated missile defence system since 1999, a year after North Korea launched a ballistic missile over the Japanese islands and into the Pacific.
The United States has demanded that North Korea completely and verifiably dismantle its nuclear programmes. Two rounds of six-nation talks on the impasse have made little progress.

PYONGYANG, North Korea -- North Korea is open to immediate talks with rival South Korea if Seoul responds to several preconditions for dialogue, a North Korean military official told The Associated Press on Thursday.
But Ri Son Gwon, a colonel working for the Policy Department of the North's powerful National Defense Commission, also challenged South Korea to "state to the world whether it honestly intends to enter into dialogue with us."
The comments came a day after a senior U.S. diplomat said Washington is open to settling a nuclear standoff with North Korea through diplomacy if Pyongyang first improves ties with Seoul.
"The South speaks loudly of dialogue in public, but behind the scenes it also says it cannot shake the principles that plunged North-South Korean ties into complete deadlock," Ri said in an interview in Pyongyang.
"If clear answers are given, dialogue will resume immediately," said Ri, dressed in an olive green military uniform. "The resumption of dialogue and the improvement of relations hinge completely on the willingness of the South's government."

text: Oscars 2013: Amour review and trailer - an extraordinary meditation on love and death It is the fearless Emmanuelle Riva who really makes this such an unforgettable experience, says Damon Wise Comments Written By Damon Wise 7:09 PM, 22 February 2013 Part adult romance, part middle-class horror movie, Michael Haneke's Palme d'Or winner is an extraordinary meditation on love and death that succeeds not just on account of its director's calculating intelligence but because of two brilliant performances by its 80-something leads. Jean-Louis Trintignant and Emmanuelle Riva play two moderately well-to-do Parisians living a comfortable existence in relative solitude. Their peers are dying, they have a daughter (Isabelle Huppert) who doesn't visit much, and Riva, a former music teacher, sometimes sees her old students. Yet what was once a close, self-sufficient relationship is rocked when Riva suffers a serious stroke. From here, the film becomes a powerful albeit uncomfortably bleak and forensic study of old age, controlled with icy precision by writer/director Haneke. Trintignant, as the shell-shocked husband, gets the meatier part, but it is the fearless Riva, reduced from a smart and elegant woman into a helpless, insensible shell, who really makes this such an unforgettable experience.
