Smart Products and Microsoft Services (Internet of Things)
"Smart Products and Microsoft Services" (you could also say "Internet of Things with Microsoft Datacenter Services") is the topic of this very long, 110 minute presentation.
But before I'll let you watch it, allow me to apologize for completely skipping the first quarter of 2014 here on Subscribe!Happy New Year!
It's been a busy time here in my basement in Germany and over in Redmond and on the road, and to make up for the long drought, I recorded an extended director's edition of the "Smart Products and Microsoft Services" talk I gave at the CeBIT trade show and several other conferences in recent months and also added a section about "Project Reykjavik" that I've been working on (and which is the reason for the long break) and that Todd first mentioned and showed in his BUILD talk last week. I don't have a demo in this talk, but I'll have that coming up soon.
The video is probably really too long, but the upside of the videos here on Channel 9 are that you can pause it when the popcorn bag is empty and you need to get a new one.
The scenarios I talk about are about Public Transportation systems and Connected Car, and you may recognize the transportation scenario from my "Internet of Things or Thing on the Internet" blog rant. I also give a refresher on Service Assisted Communication in the context of the Reykjavik discussion.
The PowerPoint deck for this presentation is here.

An infra-red sensor on a bus stop... It may work at night! ;)
I actually have a comment (more like a question) regarding the service bus security model broadcast (http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/Subscribe/The-Service-Bus-Security-Model). But unfortunately that discussion is closed.
I understand how end-to-end authorization works when the client sends requests to the server. But what about situation when the client signs up for notifications that on premises server pushes on the bus queue. How can the server make sure that only authorized clients receive those notifications without completely relying on service bus ACS?

Love the Look: Lea Michele's Flowery Frock (PHOTOS)
Glee star Lea Michele stepped out on the red carpet for The Hollywood Foreign Press Association's 2011 Installation Luncheon at Beverly Hills Hotel on Thursday afternoon and we are loving this dress on her!
Pairing the flowery dress with some nude heels and a cute clutch, this is exactly the kind of look one should be sporting for a summer afternoon event. And we love the details on the shoulders, too!
It seems as though Lea is ready to dive back into work! The 24-year-old actress tweeted on Thursday morning:
"Morning everyone! Getting back into the swing of things today..summer vacation is official over. Had a great break & now I'm ready to go!"
The actress has some time off that included a trip to Hawaii with her beau Theo Stockman. Check out some photos below!

There are over 3.2 million people living in San Diego County, many of whom cannot afford legal representation and need assistance when trying to navigate through complicated court proceedings. As they do in the Bay Area and in Los Angeles, JusticeCorps members in San Diego make an impact by providing information, referrals, and assistance with forms completion.
Since it began in 2007, the San Diego JusticeCorps program has served more than 100,000 self-represented litigants, and graduated 400 JusticeCorps alumni.
JusticeCorps members will be trained to provide legal information to self–represented litigants to assist them with resolving important legal matters. JusticeCorps members assist litigants by helping litigants prepare court paperwork, by making referrals, or through assistance at a legal information workshop. Members will receive training in a variety of areas to support and enhance the member's service to the public as well as training that will support the member's individual development. Members will be placed at one of a number service locations located throughout the County of San Diego.
This program is open to students enrolled at any of our participating campuses, University of California, San Diego, San Diego State University or California State University, San Marcos.
JusticeCorps College Student members provide 300 hours of service. The program start date will be in mid-September, 2017 and hours will be completed by the end of the student's academic year (May or June 2018). The application deadline is March 10th, 2017 - but applications will be accepted until all positions are filled.
Apply for the 2017 JusticeCorps College Student Program.
JusticeCorps Fellows are college graduates who commit to provide a minimum of 1,700 hours of service during the academic year. The program will start in August, 2017, and hours will be completed by mid-August, 2018. The application deadline is February 24th, 2017.
Apply for the 2017 JusticeCorps Graduate Fellowship Program.
San Diego JusticeCorps recruits the majority of its members from students attending JusticeCorps' partner universities. Students can meet JusticeCorps program staff at campus job fairs, and can also learn about the program through their campus service learning center:
Each partner also has a campus-based university representative who works on outreach and recruitment and supports members throughout their service year. Our university reps—all of whom are enrolled students and most of whom are JusticeCorps alumni—provide support to the program staff throughout the service year while also acting as peer mentors for the cohort of members from their university.
Program Director: Amoreena Urbeck, (619) 450-5472
Ms. Urbeck joined the JusticeCorps program staff in spring, 2010. She earned a Bachelor's in Women's Studies and Masters in Public Administration specializing in criminology from San Diego State University. Ms. Urbeck oversees activities of the San Diego program on a daily basis, designs and coordinates partner and member trainings, directs program staff, and oversees the collection of data for performance measurements. Ms. Urbeck says the best parts of her job are conducting member trainings and going on site visits to see the members accomplishments first-hand.
Program Coordinator: Deanna Blanchard, (619) 450-7215
Ms. Blanchard has been with the San Diego court for 12 years and with the JusticeCorps program since September 2013. Ms. Blanchard provides administrative support for all JusticeCorps program operations, including assisting in member and court staff trainings, tracking member hours, coordinating fiscal paperwork, and entering data pertaining to JusticeCorps performance measurements.

With adequate training and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) starter packs available in A&E departments, an on-call doctor can make the decision whether to commence treatment and then ensure referral to genito-urinary services where the risk can be evaluated by an expert, and a decision made as to whether treatment continues. This can be achieved with minimal cost.
Views such as those of Dr Godwin only serve to ensure that we have more HIV in our community, not less.
Gary Hammond
By denying PEP to HIV negative partners of the several hundred people with HIV in West Yorkshire, Paul Godwin suggests we should only get local healthcare for a condition if there are a substantial number of people with that condition locally.
The logical outcome is that people with very rare conditions would get no healthcare at all and that those with medium-rare conditions must all move to the same town and lobby their health authority for a service.
Ford Hickson
Senior research fellow, Sigma Research
The failure of the NHS to provide comprehensive PEP is ethically, morally and economically contentious. If "the economics work in central London", then they work elsewhere.
The cost of not providing PEP can be measured in terms of additional HIV treatment costs, extra welfare, and ultimately lost lives.
Dr Brian Jones

26 Comments on "MTV VMA Photos Part Three"
She looks like a clip from the 90's
I don't care enough to break this down individually. I don't even know who most of them are.
Go home. Do better next time.
Those are some fugly frocks and high water pants!
@loopymommy Ha! And thanks for getting my reference. I sometimes think I'm terribly clever, and then am bummed when no one else understands my brilliance.

Older sister
Brandi Cyrus? Where'd she come from?
Apparently none of the Cyrus females can get their knees to touch.
Topper, A Star is Born!
After seeing blonde Michelle Williams crack mirrors with her singing in Cabaret, I knew for sure they hired the wrong Michelle Williams.
Probably not a good idea to name your kid Jack when the surname ends with -off…
Well, that's certainly not the Michelle Williams I was expecting when I read the caption. When did the entertainment industry not require people to change their names if someone else already had it? (See "David Bowie" vs. "Davy Jones".)
Hmm…I wonder which of the Michelles we should rename "Vicki Lester"? (Points if anyone gets that old-Hollywood reference.)
Don't know who most of these are, I must be getting old.
Who is Brandi Cyrus? I thought Miley's lil' sis was named Noah?
I don't know, that FUN! band had a lot of irritatingly catchy songs on for a long time
Sherry: initially I didn't recognize the Cyrus spawn without her stripper pole.
Oh. My. Goodness. Sarah Hyland looks like one of those human barbies. And thank god for Mary Lambert, the only normal one there.
I don't think Michelle's dress is all that bad, especially given the venue, but she does not look like she wants to be there. Not one little bit.
Jack would not be invited there on his own without his relationship with lena dunham…
Ashley Rickards has a knock out body!
OMG there's another Cyrus unleashed on the world?
The eyebrows and the hands on hips pose don't help. She looks like she's auditioning for Maleficient's younger sister.
True kno. It's summer and a Sunday, they were probably forced by their publicists or a contract to go.
It's that dark lipstick. Never been a huge fan of dark brown toned lipsticks.
Yikes, whole lotta wtf here!
Is it just me or do a lot of these folks seem uninspired? "Pfft, I'll throw something on, but I refuse to smile- screw the VMAs."
Or maybe that was me.
Michelle Williams looks like she just got up, grabbed a beach towel to wrap around herself… Michelle, you are beautiful. Please try again.
Sarah Hyland looks scary.

Please Please sign this petition - Separate Prom for "Straights"
http://chn.ge/Y8xQjp - Petition
A group of Indiana-based parents, teens and even a teacher is fighting for a separate "traditional" prom that would ban gay students.
As NBC 2/My Wabash Valley is reporting, special education teacher Diana Medley is defending a group of Sullivan High School students who are arguing in favor of the alternate prom.
"Homosexual students come to me with their problems, and I don't agree with them, but I care about them," Medley told the news station. "It's the same thing with my special needs kids; I think God puts everyone in our lives for a reason."
When asked whether or not gay people have a "purpose" in life, Medley added, "No, I honestly don't. Sorry, but I don't ... A gay person isn't going to come up and make some change unless it's to realize that it was a choice and they're choosing God."

10. We are condemning the messenger when we should be condemning the message
I am not giving this teacher a pass, but is it not fair to say that she is simply expressing the same biblical beliefs we expose millions of children to every week in churches and religious homes?
The problem is not this teacher. The greater problem is that we, as a society, continue to embrace or tolerate Stone Age superstition within our culture. Consider the political conventions of both parties. I doubt that even a single speaker failed to pay homage to this same ignorance and hate. During President Obama's inauguration, he placed his hand upon the bible, thus signifying and affirming the special significance and validity of this evil book and abhorrent system of belief.
We welcome this depravity into our homes, we treat these beliefs with deference and respect in public, and even anti-theists like me tend to treat the peddlers of this garbage as though they were particularly wise and deserving of respect, so why then do we condemn this teacher? She is doing nothing more than voicing one thin flake of the ignorance contained within this system of belief. How DARE she voice an opinion from the book Obama just swore an oath on! How DARE she voice the same beliefs as the man we invited to speak at our convention or inauguration! How DARE she follow the same beliefs as the man preaching to us this last Sunday!
Given this, who is the hypocrite here?
I suggest that we are every bit as guilty as she is if we allow this garbage elsewhere in society without voicing our opposition.

The Role of Interactive Games and Entertainment in the Creation of Lasting Knowledge
The paper discusses the importance of digital interactive games in education. People perform better in life when they are asked to do something that they enjoy. Similarly, educational interactive games play a major role in the creation of knowledge among students in elementary and secondary school. Recent studies have shown that students perform better in certain subject matters when the instructor associates a reward to the assessment. Also, one of our recent analyses showed that students who received rewards after performing well on an educational game became very interested in the subject matter. Review of a broad body of literature has led us to draw important conclusions on the role of entertainment in the creation of knowledge among children.

Evolutionary changes in the regulatory and operational climate of traditional electric utilities and the emergence of smaller generating systems such as microturbines have opened new opportunities for on-site power generation by electricity users. In this context, distributed energy resources (DER) — small power generators typically located at users' sites where the energy (both electric and thermal) they generate is used — have emerged as a promising option to meet growing customer needs for electric power with an emphasis on reliability and power quality. The portfolio of DER includes generators, energy storage, load control, and, for certain classes of systems, advanced power electronic interfaces between the generators and the bulk power provider. This white paper proposes that the significant potential of smaller DER to meet customers' and utilities' needs can be best captured by organizing these resources into MicroGrids.JF - Consultant Report prepared for the California Energy Commission PB - CERTS U2 - LBNL-50829 ER -

Winner of the Lincoln PrizeAcclaimed historian Doris Kearns Goodwin illuminates Lincoln's political genius in this highly original work, as the one-term congressman and prairie lawyer rises from obscurity to prevail over three gifted rivals of national reputation to become president. On May 18, 1860, William H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase, Edward Bates, and Abraham Lincoln waited in their hometowns for the results from the Republican National Convention in Chicago. When Lincoln emerged as the victor, his rivals were dismayed and angry. Throughout the turbulent 1850s, each had energetically sought the presidency as the conflict over slavery was leading inexorably to secession and civil war. That Lincoln succeeded, Goodwin demonstrates, was the result of a character that had been forged by experiences that raised him above his more privileged and accomplished rivals. He won because he possessed an extraordinary ability to put himself in the place of other men, to experience what they were feeling, to understand their motives and desires. It was this capacity that enabled Lincoln as president to bring his disgruntled opponents together, create the most unusual cabinet in history, and marshal their talents to the task of preserving the Union and winning the war. We view the long, horrifying struggle from the vantage of the White House as Lincoln copes with incompetent generals, hostile congressmen, and his raucous cabinet. He overcomes these obstacles by winning the respect of his former competitors, and in the case of Seward, finds a loyal and crucial friend to see him through. This brilliant multiple biography is centered on Lincoln's mastery of men and how it shaped the most significant presidency in the nation's history.

Once I loaded the dispenser with the Soothing Plant Extracts Cleanser and flipped the switch in the back I was ready to go! I put my hand under to activate the dispenser and was immediately concerned at the amount that came out. The dispenser gave me about a nickel to a quarter sized amount of product and all I kept thinking was, "This is it?" and debated whether I should activate the dispenser again. I decided to just use what I already had in my hand and see if it really was the perfect dose.
As it turns out: it is! It provides just enough product for your entire face without having to deal with the messy pumps and bottles that always dispense too much product. Once it is massaged onto the face it produces little to no foam, so foam lovers may need some time to adjust themselves to this formula. After rinsing my skin feels fresh and clean, but also a little bit dry which I more so blame on the weather because my skin is overall a bit dryer this time of year. So I make sure to use a moisturizer after cleansing.
Besides just feeling refreshed, my combination, acne-prone skin sees fairly good results in the acne department. I see many of my blemishes reduce in size and redness overnight, but nothing super drastic. Overall this cleanser on its own isn't enough to keep me clear and I think a Clearasil spot-treatment or other acne-fighter from their line in addition to this will give better results. As for now though, I think I found the perfect combination for my skin using my old cleanser once a week and this the rest of the days and using an exfoliator in addition to this cleanser once a week, so a skincare routine may be in the works soon because it even confused me just writing it!
I really like this cleanser and I appreciate that Clearasil is taking a new path in skincare and created a dispenser that always dispenses the perfect dose, but when it comes down to it this just isn't enough for my skin and I need a little extra push from some other products get my skin to where I would like it to be.
The Stats:
- Starter Kit Retails $20.00
- Comes with both dispenser and two refills (plus pre-installed batteries!)
- Refills are available in Soothing Plant Extracts and Superfruit Splash
- Each refill has 100 perfect doses
- The cleansers may be a bit drying this time of year
- Easy To Use!
- Sanitary Dispenser
- Looks Great in Any Bathroom

FRENCHVALE — At a time of year when most Cape Bretoners are dreaming of tropical beaches and hot weather, one visitor to this island is probably wondering more than most who turned the heat off.
For the past 10 days, a crested caracara has been spotted in the Frenchvale and Balls Creek area — very far north of its usual home in Mexico and the southern U.S. Also called a Mexican eagle, the caracara is essentially a tropical falcon version of a vulture. But instead of its usual diet of lizards, snakes and carrion, this bird has been joining local seagulls and crows at neighbourhood bird feeders.
Kris Tynski first saw the bird on Saturday and managed to snap photos Sunday morning.
"My wife and I were headed to Louisbourg to see if we could find a snowy owl — there's been a lot of sightings up the coast there — and I said 'Let's go for a drive and see if we can see one and take the camera,'" said Tynski.
"I see him up in the tree — if it was a hawk I would have stopped anyway to take a picture — that's what it looked like at first, was a hawk. But it was a little too big to be a hawk and too small to be an eagle. Once I got close, I took some pictures and then I took some more pictures and then when I looked at it through the viewfinder, I kind of thought it might be a caracara … so we Googled it on the phone and found out that's exactly what it was."
David McCorquodale, dean of science at Cape Breton University, also saw the crested caracara on the weekend but it's not his first time viewing the bird. He's seen caracaras in their natural habitat of Texas and says the bird rarely goes farther north than Arizona. A caracara was spotted at Lawrencetown Beach last spring and then again near Port Hawkesbury just before Christmas. McCorquodale said it's probably the same bird.
"My information is that the bird has been in Balls Creek since early in January, coming for scraps fed to gulls and crows in a yard," said McCorquodale. "Based on it still being alive, yes they can survive (the cold). Usually they (all birds) can handle the cold temperatures as long as they have enough food. Since they are scavengers, I would expect they find carrion and scraps from garbage and even bait from fishers."
McCorquodale said it's anyone's guess how the caracara got here.
"It may have got completely off course in the spring. I suspect it's the same bird wandering around since then. Normally they don't move great distances — they're pretty sedentary. If it was a young bird who got disoriented completely, once it's in a place, it doesn't go very far."

This is the first 'Lazy Larry' built using the new spiral jig I have just built.
Timber is PH and SA of course. More different ones being built. Finish is tung oil and wax.
I have a Blog on the Jig and the process and will post if enough people are interested.
[Enough being 1] LOL. More to follow. Last pic is a dry fit up prior to the glue up.
BTW it is 500mm in diameter or 20" in the U.S.
Thanks to all who keep looking.

Everything working very well because of you guys, thanks so much.
My only question/issue....Can I universally reduce the overscan? I have set it for some resolutions 1080p/24, 1080p60 via the XMBC gui, but I still play videos that cause overscan and therefore the progress bar, etc. are most off the screen. Or do I just have to use the XBMC gui to adjust every possible video format? I used Ubuntu mini install so I am using lightdm and boot right into XBMC. Do I have to boot into lightdm and use the ATI gui, or preferrably can I run the aticonfig command to adjust it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'd really love to get AirPlay going on my Ubuntu Fusion based HTPC! I noticed that you repo (wsnipex) doesn't include the libshairport lib. Is there a way you can include this in your repo?
I've tried installing the official build and AirPlay worked brilliantly (music) but I lost the hardware acceleration capabilities. I can't live without those, but AirPlay is just so awesome...!

That's really odd. I was about to reply "it seems to work for me!" but first I thought I'd try it again with something known to be DTS-HD... and hey-presto, silence.
Luckily I'd also retained the plain DTS track...
I think the DTS-HD stuff was passed-through happily by Plex on OSX (and probably XBMC on OSX) - which would make sense if the thing blocking it is that fglrx library dependency on Linux. I've just switched back to XBMC/Linux and yeah, this doesn't work.

Only remaining driver to try to unload is radeon, I managed to replace it with vesa but then resume doesn't work at all. With my limited knowledge of Linux this indicates the issue is due to the graphics driver (what else?). And since fast resume time is a requirement for a good HTPC I thought this might be the proper place to mention this after all. I also started an Ubuntu thread but got nowhere there so far. And the issue is the same with an XBMC session. And resume time is even longer with XBMC-Xvba + fglrx + Linux Mint. Can anyone here with Fusion board confirm the long resume time?
you should uninstall radeon if you use fglrx.
I have fusion+opensSuse and no problem with suspend to ram. sometimes problems with suspend to disk (hangs randomly on reinitializing X). do you mean suspend to ram or disk with resume?
suspend to disk is pretty fast here but because of ssd I guess

AMD does not communicate with us in a deterministic way, nor do they make timelines. Fglrx on windows works create :-) Basically they have all the features we are missing here on linux.
New Audio Engine makes sense as a lot of things internally have improved - but it is not as stable as you would like to have it. Nvidia does - to my knowledge - support this kind of audio.
It is always the old problem: The binary blob is not really great and despite one real fix since last September, we got an ASIC hang introduced after 12.2 :-). I don't want to blame AMD that hard, i found some great people while doing XVBA and this would not have been happened, if all their drivers would be perfect :-)
So: It is work in progress.

thanks for the input. I suppose this means you have the normal 3 to 5 seconds resume time from suspend-to-RAM (pm-suspend or from within XBMC). I have 17 seconds with plain Ubuntu and I think it was 22 seconds with Linux Mint + XBMC-XVBA. I also tried s2ram with various options. I will try later your suggestion to unload/block radeon driver while using fglrx. Slightly off-topic perhaps but seems to be related to graphics driver and the readers here propbably often want fast resume time so I think it's good it is mentioned here.

About a year ago I moved my xbmc environment from my windows 7 pc to my linux server running ubuntu 10.10 both with the same radeon 4350 card.
My experience on windows was great, has been traumatic on ubuntu. About 40% of my movies played with bad artifacts.
I thought this was down to the 264 5.1 issues, spotted message on first post saturday morning stating issue is now fixed. Decided to update my driver (was using 11.11), which I spent the rest of my weekend in to the early hours to sort out ubuntu upgrade to 12.04
Finally got xbmc running again with xvba, tested my movies and found some are now working, but still a good 15% not working. Checked with media info, and not one of them are 264 5.1, a few are the 4.1 others are AVC, all played fine on the windows driver.
Another problem I had was dropped frames every minute or so, cpu loads were 30%-40%.
Ignoring the dropped frames, would you expect xbmc-xvba to have problems with approx 15% of movie rips on average?
I am using the 12.6 legacy drivers on the eden repository builds in ubuntu 12.04 running 32bit. Would this driver/setup include the fix for 264 5.1 ?
Mentioned earlier, compiz should be disabled. I couldn't find anyway to disable it, I tried disabling options in the compiz manager, but that just screwed up my system. Have managed to get it running again, but may need to re-install ubuntu again to clean it all up. How do you disable compiz on 12.04?
I think compiz is not used if I use the unity 2d or the gnome classic (no special effects) gui login options, please could you confirm that?
I have checked hardware accelleration is working, if I disable, the movies lose the artifacts, but don't play smoothly.
I really need to get this sorted, and am very tempted to move back to windows. Just my harddrives are ext formatted, and I don't have any cash to fork out on a new hard disk to transfer the data to ntfs.
Thanks for all your great work,

I think you are running the eden version of xbmc-xvba, is this correct? In later versions we included a fix for common but terribly wrong encoded [email protected] files. So basically these files say: "Hey I am [email protected] and I have 16 Reframes". This is wrong by spec. With later versions we detect this and change the Level to [email protected]
Could you retry with this ppa:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-xvba
This ppa is work in progress, but should make these videos work. You have to recheck your Audio Settings as this version includes the new Audio Engine - which has some bugs. I will backport the CheckfaultyLevel41 patch to eden tonight.
Let's see if wsnipex wants to build new packages from this ancient version.
Edit: And please supply a mediainfo of this file in question.
Edit2: PR in progress https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/pull/58 - But please pastebin the mediainfo output.

I've installed xbmcbuntu-11.9-wsnipex-testing-v2.iso and this really is the first install where I've had everything working out of the box on my AMD Fusion E350 board (including my TP Link USB WiFi Adapter which I cant seem to get to work with Openelec. However, as mentioned earlier in the thread I too am having issues with high CPU usage with one core frequently hitting the 100% mark on idle and also issues with it suddenly freezing in the menu screens that requires a restart. I'd love to get this working for me and would appreciate any advice. While I'm a developer working with computers for quite a while, I'm a Linux newbie so would appreciate all the help I can get.
I've tried many Linux options including XBMC on Ubuntu, XBMCbuntu (non XVBA and this one), Openelec (for Fusion Beta), and this 11.9 release and the Openelec Fusion are the only two that work great but I have this issue with the 11.9 and non working WiFi on the Openelec (also I'm weirdly not able to sign up at their forums for some reason)
I'm using a Foxconn AHD1S-K E350 motherboard with 4GB of RAM and a Kingston 32GB SSD.

@FernetMenta - Thanks! Not sure what to do with this information but will search and try before I post back! [EDIT] What I meant was that I checked the link and I'm not entirely sure how to apply the patch. @fritsch - I dont see an updated ISO so I'm guessing I cant just create a new bootable stick and install?

The Miley Blame Game
Everyone's Playing, But Once Again Real Moms Get Stuck Explaining
By: Mary Beth Sammons
The – er – issue hit the stands Friday: Vanity Fair's now infamous spread of Miley Cyrus and her family is available at a checkout counter near you. As the brouhaha dies down, moms of teenage daughters are stuck, once again, trying to figure out how to explain this latest teen-idol fiasco.
Call it The Blame Game: Famed celeb photog Annie Leibovitz claims it's all in the name of Art. The Disney Channel, which airs Cyrus' TV show "Hannah Montana," points the finger at Vanity Fair, saying they deliberately manipulated a 15-year-old because sex sells magazines. VF shoots the blame to Miley's folks, who were on the set all day, taking the clueless defense, "well, they should have said something. It's their daughter." For her part, Miley just says she's embarrassed. I bet.
OMG… It's bad enough that young girls across the country are now getting the message that Disney's chosen can strut their stuff – or bare their chests – in semi-nude photo shoots. (What's next? Sleeping Beauty wakes up naked?) No, worse than even this, is the whole "Battle of the Adults" blame shifting that's just teaching young girls how to re-enact life on the kindergarten playground: "He made me do it." "It's her fault." "No, it's his fault."
Reminds me of one of my worst parental lines, which I've used in many a regretful moment (such as when cigarettes appeared "accidentally" in certain teen's hands): "So, if Johnny told you to jump off a cliff, would you do it?"
Which brings me back to the issue at hand – my 15-year-old daughter's current idol sans clothes in a glossy magazine spread.
The Britney Spears "situation" has finally quieted down in the house where this single mom is home alone with my youngest daughter, a sophomore in high school. It took years to undo the damage caused by the once sweet-looking, post-Parent Trap Lindsay Lohan suddenly surfacing with her police blotter mugs plastered everywhere. Especially since my freckled-faced daughter is regularly stopped on the street by strangers who swear she looks just like a younger Lindsay. And especially because my daughter blushes with glee every time the comparison is made.
Now, much to the utter disappointment of moms of teens everywhere, Disney star Miley Cyrus, has gone from Hannah Montana signing autographs at the American Girl Doll store to posing for semi-nude photos in Vanity Fair. This of course comes back-to-back with her recent racy Internet splash.
I'm not pleased at all. Miley is a role model for a generation of tweens, and even little girls as young as five. She's aware of her audience and her fans, and knows they look up to her, and so does her dad Billy Ray and other adults in her life who were supposedly at the photo shoot when things went "artistic."
Bottom line: It's irresponsible for a 15-year-old role model to pose for these kinds of shots knowing other girls are following her every move. And it's pathetic that her parents would raise their own star by exploiting their teen idol daughter. Any parent of a teen knows the old "but Miley's parents let HER do it" pitch.
So, tonight am I supposed to say, "Bust loose on Facebook because that's what "good" girl Disney stars your age do?"
How are you explaining the Miley Cyrus pictures to your children? Whose fault REALLY is it?

Floored By Florent?July 27, 2006 | By | COMMENTS
Last night was supposed to be Fatty Crab night. There were six of us, and when Craig and I arrived we were informed by the rest that Fatty Crab wouldn't seat all six of us together–they wanted to split us into three and three–and that the wait would be 1.5 hours. "1.5 hours!" everyone yelled. They were outraged. So James Felder led the charge to Florent. I didn't argue–I've wanted to try Florent since reading Andy Towle's piece on it last year—a highly commendable, incredibly thorough examination of the restaurant, its owner and its importance. I recommend you read that to learn The Florent Story; here, I'll focus on our experience eating there.
The inside of Florent is fun and lively:
They squeezed us in at two circular tables which were pretty uncomfortable but, admittedly, the only option for a group as large as ours. (Can't a party of six get any love in this city?)
Our waiter was fun and funny and he handled our group expertly. We would have tipped him expertly too but gratuity was already included. (I realize some people get upset when gratuity is included, but I think it makes it easier. Unless, of course, you don't know gratuity is already included and you tip on top of the tip and then it makes things much more expensive.)
The menu at Florent looks like a diner menu but the food is very Paris bistro. Because I'm always reading about mussels and frites at other places, I tried to give the mussels and frites here a shot—especially because the day's special was a mussels special that came with frites. Here are my special mussels with ginger, roasted plum tomatoes, adobo, cilantro and cream:
And here's a crazy red evil communist picture of my frites:
I liked the mussels ok–I've never been a huge fan of mussels–but the sauce was killer and I loved dipping my frites and the very crusty, very enjoyable bread into the bowl of creamy, cilnatro-ey, mussels sauce. (I offered some to Diana and she rejected it saying it was like offering someone milk from the bottom of a bowl of cereal. I found this statement to be ridiculous and said I wasn't eating the mussels over the bowl like someone eats cereal. She then agreed to try the sauce and she liked it. I was the victor in that exchange.)
Here's Kirk of The Daily Kirk photographing his chicken:
He and others were less than wowed by the food. "It was just ok," seemed to be the consensus, but at the same time I was appreciative of eating Francolicious food in a diner-like environment. And I bet it's a fun place to go late at night/early in the morning, when drunk people are stomping around and someone's singing on the bar.
It's a New York experience worth experiencing. I'm glad I experienced it. I hope you're glad too.

best hardware platform for Mathematica 7 under Linux?
I'm planning on building a PC mainly to run Mathematica 7. I
understand that version 7 is optimized to take advantage of multiple
core CPUs. Now, Intel has a bunch of products out there and I'm
really not sure which is faster -- I heard that some "Core 2 Duo" or
"Core 2 Extreme" processors are faster than quad-cores (like the
Q6600) or mere "Dual Core" Pentiums.
Then, there are the "Xeon" processors for servers. More
I was thinking of getting a dual CPU server motherboard and putting
two Xeon quad cores on it, and running Linux and using the Linux
version of Mathematica. Would that be the best bang for my buck, or
are there faster solutions?
Please feel free to e-mail me at stpatryck at gmail.com

I am trying to use CDO in VBScript to send email from one server to a
separate exchange server. The article at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/171440/ states that CDOSYS version 6 library
is obtained "through installation" of Windows 2003 but alas, email does not
work and I am unable to locate the CDOSYS.dll on my Windows 2003 system.
I have tried configuring SMTP with Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs
-> Add/Remove Windows Components -> Application Server -> Internet
Information Services (IIS) -> SMTP Service) but that didn't give me the
CDOSYS.dll or CDO functionality either.
What "installation" feature do I need to install/configure, to get this
Note to moderator: I have first been here with the scripting guys:
then was told to go here at server setup:
That moderator (I believe errantly) sent me to:
A member there, suggested that I come here to your forum. When you suggest
another place to take this, be specific, and try to avoid sending me to one

Thanks in advance.

BIG BOI: Outkast legend Announces New Deal
Even though Big Boi recently reunited with Andre 3000 as OutKast for a long run of dates, the ATL legend is working on his third studio album -- and it'll be released on Epic Records.
Big Boi is reuniting with L.A. Reid, who signed OutKast to LaFace Records back in 1992. He tells the Huffington Post, "That's my mentor. He understands my music. And one thing about L.A. Reid, there are no creative restraints[... He] let's me make the music I want to make."
As of now, there's no release date for Big Boi's solo set, but he plans to put something out before the end of the year -- he's even hinting at some new material dropping while he's on the road with Andre this summer.
Good question to ask here; did Big Boi only reunite with Andre 3000 to boost his comeback into the rap scene? Furthermore did Andre only do it for the pub of his new movie where he plays Jimi Hendrix? Was this all a sham?

Controlled burn at Echo Hills
The reason for a smoky sky, according to the Oconee Fire Chief, is the controlled burn in progress today at the county's Echo Hills Industrial Park. There, two building pads are being prepared in a first phase effort at highway 11 property, for which county leaders have high hopes to create jobs through economic development. At Echo Hills this morning, smoke was emitted from the burning of brush.

Sign up for our weekly email * The US packaged foods firm ConAgra Foods has reported a net income of $272.2m for the fiscal third quarter ended 26 February 2012 – an increase of 26.5 per cent, compared to $215.1m for the corresponding period last year. The company posted net sales of $3.37bn (Q3 2011: $3.14bn) and net interest expenses of $50m, down from $52 million a year ago. Sales of commercial foods brought in $1.22bn, an increase of 13.7 per cent compared to $1.07bn the previous year. This was driven by rises in commodity prices and increased volumes for ConAgra's Lamb Weston potato operations, as well as the pass-through of higher wheat costs in the milling operations. Other product lines in the segment posted good top-line results. Due to the high level of cost inflation over the past year, food-makers across the US have been raising prices. ConAgra said that this peaked in the third quarter but expects the pressure to ease in the current period. The consumer foods segment posted sales of $2.16bn for the fiscal third quarter, an increase of 4.1 per cent compared to $2.07bn for the same period last year. Gary Rodkin, CEO of ConAgra Foods, said: "Conditions have been difficult across the industry due to high inflation and soft volumes for retail consumer food brands . . . [But] we benefited from total margin management efforts that include price increases in both operating segments and good overall cost savings." Subscribe from just £1 per issue More

RIO HATO, PANAMA—Latin America is poised for significant supply growth on the strength of a surging middle class and a growing development pipeline in regions such as Panama and Brazil, according to executives at the Wyndham Latin America Regional Convention 2013 held here at the Wyndham Grand Playa Blanca.
Daniel del Olmo, SVP/managing director, WHG Latin America, maintained the region will experience "prosperous growth for this year," specifically GDP growth of roughly 4%, with Panama realizing more than 10% growth and Peru and Mexico coming in at 6.2% an 4.5%, respectively. He also noted in a survey of Wyndham owners and operators in Latin America, some 69% expected RevPAR to increase between 3% and 5%.
Jan Freitag, SVP/global development, Smith Travel Research, noted "Panama and Brazil are seeing a lot of activity for new construction." He added, "Everybody wants to be in Panama."
According to Clay Dickinson, EVP, Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels, Latin America, the company expects a 425,000-room increase over the next 10 years in the region, which represents a 65% increase. He noted the current pipeline is around 100,000 rooms for Latin America.
Freitag did note, similar to the U.S., the Latin America region has difficulty getting rate traction. "With the exception of Mexico and Brazil, room rate declined in 2012," he said.

QuarterbacksCurrent collegiate eligibility for each: Rees (2), Hendrix (3), Golson (4), Kiel (4/5)
Everett Golson: The leader in the clubhouse to start under center vs. Navy, albeit with two-thirds of August camp remaining. Barring injury, will see his first career action this fall, regardless.
Andrew Hendrix: Purportedly splits first-team reps with Golson, though that wasn't the case in a lone practice open to the media. Hendrix likely a full week of practices to earn the starting nod as thereafter, the team is expected to begin game specific preparations for Week One.
Gunner Kiel: Earned valuable camp reps in former starter Tommy Rees' stead. Shined in an open practice with tough on corner and flag routes, albeit vs. no defense. Also successful during team's 7-on-7 goal line drills.
Tommy Rees: Suspended by Kelly for the season opener. It's illogical to believe he'll start Week Two, though any prediction thereafter would be fair game. The only member of the unit with starting experience.
Running BacksJunior Cameron Roberson's Notre Dame football career appears over. Head coach Brian Kelly noted Wednesday that Roberson will seek a medical scholarship waiver due to a March 2011 knee injury. Roberson can remain at the University on scholarship, but not as a member of the squad.
Cierre Wood: Unquestioned lead runner entering his senior season. Wood averaged 5.1 yards per carry as a freshman on 119 rushes and repeated the feat with increased carries (219 last year). His nine rushing scores in 2011 ranks tied for third at the program since Autry Denson's graduation following the '98 campaign.
Theo Riddick: Unlikely to be listed as a starter at either RB or WR, but with the exception of Wood and Tyler Eifert, Riddick will likely see more playing time than every skill position player this fall.
George Atkinson: The backfield's X-factor, Atkinson is the team's fastest player, the unit's biggest runner, and has appears to be capable as a receiver. The ability to hold onto the football will determine his playing time in 2012.
Amir Carlisle: Reportedly at about 80 percent per Kelly; Carlisle occasionally experiences inflammation after breaking his ankle in March. Still a (logical) redshirt-candidate per Irisheyes.com, though a colleague noted the USC transfer is unlikely to accept that fate. Kelly noted early in camp that Carlisle's positive attitude is that of a starter already. The USC transfer has three seasons of eligibility remaining.
Will Mahone: Promising freshman would need a run of injuries or carve out a unique niche to see scrimmage time this fall. Showed good feet in the aforementioned open practice.
Wide ReceiversOf the players listed, only Goodman, Jones, and Toma have recorded a collegiate reception.
John Goodman: Named offensive MVP of the spring, the 5th-year senior is the front-runner for the starting "W" receiver spot after serving as a backup over the last three seasons with five intermittent starting assignments.
T.J. Jones: Leading candidate to start at the "X" receiver spot for the third straight season. Jones' six career touchdown receptions ranks tied for second on the active roster behind tight end Tyler Eifert (7).
Robby Toma: Has a lock on the starting slot receiver role ("Z") but snaps will be shared at times with RB/slot Theo Riddick, and potentially freshman Davonte' Neal (below) among others.
DaVaris Daniels: The team's most athletic receiver in spring testing sessions appears to need a strong final push to wrest a starting spot from one of the veterans listed above. Daniels redshirted last fall after purportedly impressing throughout August camp and September practices.
Daniel Smith: Junior has yet to catch a pass but burned two seasons of collegiate eligibility as an occasional member of the kickoff coverage unit. Smith's 6'4" 215-pound frame would be invaluable to a smallish receiver group.
Davonte Neal: Appears to be one of the team's quickest players as a true freshman and will doubtless be used as a tunnel screen option in September. Neal's upside is great for 2012 but he's not yet locked down a role other than Toma's understudy.
Chris Brown: Speaking of athleticism…the lanky Brown showed as much moxie as raw speed in our only open practice viewing. At 6'2, 172 pounds, Brown is nowhere near ready for full-time action over 12 weeks, but the bulk of the receiving corps ranks below his apparent talent level.
Justin Ferguson: Seems a logical redshirt candidate as the Kelly regime has yet to feature more than five game day regulars, much less the desired six. Seven receivers practice with the varsity during the season, and though Ferguson has promise, he might not bring a unique quality at 18 years old as do his freshmen counterparts Brown and Neal.
Luke Massa: Tore his ACL in early April but is practicing with the squad. Massa redshirted in 2010 as a true freshman so if he can make it to the field at any point in 2012 and win a role, he won't be held back. Served as an occasional blocker on the return units last fall.
Tight EndsThe team's most impressive position in terms of talent and depth took a hit mid-week after Alex Welch injured his knee during a scrimmage.
Tyler Eifert: The nation's best tight end is the team's best offensive weapon and one of the roster's two best players. With a season comparable to his 2011 campaign, Eifert will own every meaningful receiving record at his position.
Ben Koyack: In a battle with junior Alex Welch for the No. 2 tight end role, a de facto starting spot for the 2012 offense. Koyack is viewed as potentially top tier pass-catcher but its his blocking acumen that will determine overall playing time this fall.
Troy Niklas: 6'7" 260-pound behemoth is expected to be a key factor in the team's running game this fall. Niklas converted from linebacker in the off-season but has shown impressive hands in our limited viewings.
Jake Golic: Injury to teammate Welch opens the door for Golic to win a job on the specialty units, namely as a blocker on the kick return team. Unlikely to see much scrimmage time when game's are close.
Alex Welch: Unofficially tore his ACL in Wednesday practice; Welch status will be updated later today. The junior redshirted as a true freshman in 2009 which means a lost 2012 season would still count toward his remaining three years of eligibility.
Offensive LineTwo redshirt-freshmen members of the unit are unlikely to continue their playing careers at Notre Dame.
Zack Martin: Two seasons, two Guardian of the Year awards as the team's top offensive lineman. Martin has two season of eligibility remaining and ranks as one of the offense's three best players from his left tackle position.
Chris Watt: Enters his second season as a starter and could already be the team's best run-blocker; he's doubtless its most physical. Like his senior classmate Martin, Watt has two years of eligibility remaining after a 2010 redshirt.
Braxston Cave: 5th-year senior returns after November foot surgery to start for the third consecutive season in the middle of the offensive line. A candidate for captaincy should Kelly choose beyond Eifert and linebacker Manti Te'o.
Mike Golic, Jr.: Lead candidate for the starting right guard role. The 5th-year senior started four games at center last season in Cave's stead. Will serve as the backup center again, regardless of his status at right guard.
Christian Lombard: Expected to start at right tackle after a redshirt season in 2010 and sparse playing time last fall. The junior has three seasons of eligibility remaining and was Scout.com's No. 2 rated offensive tackle in the 2010 class.
Nick Martin: Redshirt-freshman is battling Golic for the starting right guard spot. Could be cross-trained at left tackle behind his brother due to the apparent loss of classmate Jordan Prestwood (below).
Conor Hanratty: LIke Nick Martin above, Hanratty was a member of the varsity during practice last fall but did not appear, thus preserving a season of eligibility. Currently slated behind Watt at left guard.
Tate Nichols: Fell behind classmate Lombard in their battle for the starting right tackle role at some point late last spring. The unit's biggest player (6'8" 320 pounds), Nichols redshirted in 2010 and sat out last year with knee (August) and shoulder (September) injuries, the latter of which required surgery.
Matt Hegarty: Third-string center behind Cave and Golic. Hegarty, a 4-star Scout.com OT prospect in 2011, continues his transition to the line's pivot -- has a golden opportunity in spring 2013 to earn a starting nod with the loss of both 5th-year seniors.
Bruce Heggie: Third-string guard and emergency center, Heggie earned playing time from scrimmage last season as a redshirt-freshman vs. Air Force, a major accomplishment for a player not rated coming out of high school. Now a junior, Heggie has three seasons of eligibility remaining.
Ronnie Stanley: True freshman will likely practice with the varsity in September as the No. 2 left tackle, though a rash of injuries across the unit would have to occur for Kelly to burn the promising player's redshirt season.
Mark Harrell: True freshman is making the transition from high school tight end and tackle to collegiate center. Will not play in 2012 but then enters spring 2013 in a battle with Hegarty and Heggie at the center position.
Jordan Prestwood: Left the team according to Kelly; status pending. The redshirt-freshman left tackle committed to Notre Dame, de-committed and enrolled at Florida State in the spring of 2011, transferred to the Irish over the summer, and was withheld from action due to NCAA transfer rules last fall.
Brad Carrico: Carrico's Notre Dame playing career has ended do to a foot injury and subsequent surgery. Like Roberson, Carrico will receive a medical scholarship waiver and can remain at the University.
Look for Part II of Roster Rundown, and a review of the team's defense and special teams players, later this weekend.
