Glory 09 11 2010: Carnival Glory Cruise Review by Pee-ah
Overall Member Rating
Glory 09 11 2010
Destination: Canada & New England
Embarkation: New York (Manhattan)
For sail away we climbed the stairs to the top deck for our meet and greet with the roll call! So amazing that so many people showed up after getting to know each other over months on CC. (for those that haven't joined your roll calls i can't suggest more strongly that you do!)
After roll call many went to dinner as they had early seating while ours was late. So after showering and changing (our baggage arrived without any issues) we went to tour the shops and the casino More (won $20 and lost it... but as my initial investment was only $5 ... it was entertainment.) Then we headed to our table. It turned out that they needed the larger table for a group that went from 6 people to 10. The MD was very apologetic and asked if we minded being moved to a "nice" table. It was then that i suggested by the window? Our seat was one away from the window. Considering that it was dark outside it didn't matter but it was nice to see even the night.
After dinner we went wondering into the karaoke lounge... and left quickly! We ended in the piano bar. The songs were a little sad at first and Morse. We asked for some up beat tunes (and tipped well) and songs became a bit happier and the place started to fill up. We both sang along. When it came to New York, New York i belted it. I guess i was okay. (But do wonder if im up for repeat performance. At about 12 we hit the hay. It had been a long day!
We had a 4J cabin; it's the very front of the ship. It's an inside with the obstructed view. (If im sitting on the bed all i can see is the sky, though standing i have no trouble seeing The ship moves a bit at the front but neither BFF have experienced any issues with the movement. And loved being rocked to sleep! This is true until the sea day as then the boat was rocking as we caught the tail end of the tornado that hit NYC. Many people were ill this day!!!
1st sea day. After breakfast in the main dining room i went and found a calm shell in the Serenity area and watched the world go by, while BFF went to the gym. Had lunch in the main dining room. Great lunch as we meet a new group of people who like us are Carnival cheer leaders. After lunch we went to the Art auction. As my walls are running out of space and my shopping budget had been spent in NYC at Macy's... i showed restraint... Okay BFF also was the voice of reason. That night at dinner was the first formal night... YUM lobster. Went we got the main dinning room we found that our table had again been changed... we were right beside the window... Karma is wonderful thing! After dinner we saw two comedy acts... both adult and enjoyed both. After those it was back to the piano bar. Just after midnight we left as we had an early morning as we had booked a trip on a Tall Ship in Halifax.
Halifax. We had booked an excursion through the ship to sail on The Tall Ship Silva. It was great and we were able to learn a great deal of history about the city. After the sail we walked around Halifax then came back to the boat for a late lunch.
Saint John Love this town!!!! Here we did the Hop on and Hop off pink bus and learnt a great deal about the city. We toured both the city and took the Pink Bus to the reversing falls (though really they look more like rapids than falls) After the bus I spent sometime in the market beside the ship and found the people to be amongst the friendliest that we had meet on the trip!
Portland MA For this port we booked the Land and Sea tour from the ship. The land portion took us through town and then to see the Oldest Commissioned Light House in USA. The light house was amazing. After the land tour we boarded the Windjammer to sail in the port. We loved this sailing much more than the one in Halifax as they actually used the sails not just for show as they had been in Halifax. After the sail we walked around town a bit and had a lobster roll (our first time) Very pretty port!
Boston For this port we did the Hop on Hop off tour at the end of the pier as the ones offered by the ship did not offer the hop on hop off option. In the City we stopped to do some shopping and then had lunch at "Cheers" we both had Boston Clam Chowder ? Yum!!!! It's a very nice city and has a beautiful harbor! Would defiantly recommend doing the Hop on Hop off as you learn a great deal about the city! And seeing Fenway park was amazing!!!!
Last sea day As mentioned prior it was a rough day at the sea and the swells were huge. The ship almost felt like a ghost town. The Roll Call got together for one final time to take pictures, though not everyone came (due to the rough sea many were not feeling up to it)
Debarkation Easy! No issues ?
Cabin Steward Left great towel animals every day... but could have also focused more on the cleanliness of the cabin. We had issues with the sink not being properly cleaned and also with the mirror having to be mentioned to have cleaned two times before it was done. Friendly for sure, just not focused.
Steak House Kudo's to Debbie as she made the experience enjoyable as both my BFF and I thought that the other staff were cold and the food in the MDR was at par.
MDR Loved Hussain the MD and Carlos and his team! The service that they provided was incredible! From the first night to the final night consistently amazing!!! Also the food was fabulous.. No complaints!!!
Guest Services With all my encounters with Guest Services they were at all times professional and extremely accommodating! I even requested a room for our Roll Call and they not only provided one but also published it the "Fun Times" so that those that couldn't make the first one were able to make this one! Great service! Less

I'm on the train. I'm in the "quiet car." There is an African American couple. The woman is talking on her phone. Has been for fifty minutes. She is not quiet, in other words. I can't tell what's she's saying except she's talking about her kids. Something something "those motherfuckers." She says "sheeeit" like Clay Davis, loud as hell. And I think: black people should not be allowed in the quiet car. Goddamn blacks. Etc.
I beat a woman while fleeing from the cops a couple weeks ago. I still live mostly off unemployment and I spend that money on cheap liquor, not my bills. I probably have kids I don't know about. If I did know I couldn't pay for them. Every night I cook a huge fatty piece of pork, or fry some chicken, and then get hammered on hobo booze and try to fuck fat white women. I'm white, but I embody every stereotype about African Americans. Except for my smaller wang and less robust deltoids. Continue reading

Donating online is quick, easy and secure when you pay with your credit card. And it saves time and the cost of postage.
Simply go to www.lanterman.org/donate to make your donation today.
Thanks for your support!
Thank you to everyone who has adopted a Lanterman family for the holidays. We are two-thirds of the way to our goal of getting all of our neediest families adopted for the holidays, but with one week left before Christmas, there are still 35 families remaining. As you go about your final holiday preparations, please take a moment to remember those in need and consider adopting one of the remaining families. Despite the difficulties these families are facing, show them that the true spirit of the holidays is still alive, and help them partake in this festive time of year.
To adopt one of the remaining families, contact Karem Chacana at 213.252.4924 or email@example.com.
Each year, through Lanterman's Holidays are for Sharing Adopt-a-Family program, the Center's neediest clients and their families are adopted by other members of the Lanterman community, including other families, staff and service providers, and also the general community.
This year we are reaching out to the entire Lanterman community, as we have triple the number of families waiting to be adopted and we need your support to help make their holidays merry and bright.
There are a couple of ways to adopt a family, including:
- donating food cards or a food basket to be given to a family, and/or
- selecting a family and purchasing toys, clothes and other items, and working with the Center to ensure the items get to the family you adopted.
"It's an annual tradition for our team to adopt a family," shares Edward Perez, family support specialist. "We work with the family's service coordinator to identify what the family is most in need of, usually it's clothes, but over the years, we've heard stories of children with no toys to play with, nothing warm to wear for the winter, and families that cook dinner on a hot plate, need a heater for their apartment, a car seat, etc. Some of the stories you hear are heartbreaking, and while you can't solve all of their problems, by adopting them for the holidays, you know that you at least made a small difference in a family's life. You've given them a little bit of hope, showed them that someone cares, and this can go a long way."
If you are interested in adopting a family or learning more about how you can support the program, contact Karem Chacana at 213.252.4924 or email@example.com.

Trenton, NJ – Building on his strong commitment to ensure a fair and sensible application of New Jersey's gun laws in a manner that respects law-abiding New Jerseyans' constitutional right to possess firearms for self-defense, Governor Christie today announced the release of the report of the New Jersey Firearm Purchase and Permitting Study Commission, and stated his full support of its recommendations to bring clarity and commonsense to New Jersey's gun control laws and regulations.
The scope of the Study Commission's work and its recommended reforms include the following ill-defined and confusing areas of law:
"New Jersey's extraordinarily strict and expansive gun control laws and regulations have given rise to rules and restrictions that are complicated and unfair to law abiding New Jerseyans. The terrible tragedy involving Berlin resident Carol Bowne this past summer, and far too many instances of gun owners facing severe criminal penalties when they have no intent to violate the law, compelled the need to take a fresh look at whether our laws and rules around gun ownership are working. I thank the Study Commission for taking on this charge," said Governor Christie.
In June 2015, Governor Christie signed Executive Order No. 180, creating the New Jersey Firearm Purchase and Permitting Study Commission, with the specific task of reviewing the state's laws, regulations and procedures pertaining to the ownership and possession of firearms and ensuring they do not infringe on New Jerseyans' constitutional rights. The Governor named three subject matter experts as the Study Commission's members: retired police officer and attorney Adam Heck, criminal defense attorney and former federal prosecutor Eric H. Jaso, and criminal law professor Erik Lillquist.
Mindful of the tragic murder of Carol Bowne in her driveway by her ex-boyfriend, against whom she held a domestic violence protective order, while her application for a handgun permit languished weeks beyond the 30-day statutory deadline, the Commission focused its attention on impediments to the exercise of New Jersey citizens' constitutional right to bear arms for self-defense. The three primary subjects of its report reflect areas that the Commission believes bringing further clarity to the law could ease burdens on lawful and responsible gun ownership without undermining public safety.
"Our citizens have the right to exercise their constitutional right to bear arms. New Jersey citizens should be permitted to defend themselves and not encounter unlawful delays and impediments. The work of the Study Commission is thoughtful and strikes at the heart of these issues. I thank the members for lending their expertise and experience with these issues, and for providing a set of recommendations that I am proud to wholeheartedly embrace. We will work through the Attorney General to put these changes into effect as quickly as possible," Governor Christie concluded.
The Recommendations Of The New Jersey Firearm Purchase And Permitting Study Commission Include The Following:
Giving Clarity And A Commonsense Expansion To The "Justifiable Need" Standard For The Issuance Of Carry Permits: New Jersey law currently requires that a firearms applicant must demonstrate a "justifiable need" to carry a handgun. The Commission found that the regulatory "standard for meeting this statutory requirement can be broadened to align more closely" with decisions from the New Jersey State Supreme Court and the Legislature's intent.
Ending The Firearm Transport Dilemma For Law-Abiding Owners By Providing Clear Guidance For The Transport Of Guns Within New Jersey: As a spate of recent cases, such as Shaneen Allen's, have demonstrated, out-of-state residents passing through New Jersey with a firearm that they lawfully possess in their home state are at times unaware that they are breaking New Jersey law by possessing it in the Garden State. These visitors are still "subject to criminal prosecution and a substantial jail sentence for unlawful possession of a firearm." (pg. 5) Governor Christie has previously utilized the pardon power to lessen the consequences of such unintentional violations.
The Commission found that in cases of intra-state transport of firearms, where owners are required to go directly from point-to-point subject only to deviations that are "reasonably necessary," there currently is no guidance as to what constitutes a "reasonably necessary" deviation. Accordingly, the Commission has offered recommendations to guide both law enforcement and firearm owners in the application of the law.
Identifying And Reinforcing Uniform Criteria For Obtaining Gun Permits & Increasing Transparency: The Commission considered reports of unnecessary and lengthy delays, as well as reports "that the statutory requirements for obtaining firearm purchaser identification cards, handgun purchase permits and handgun carry permits are being applied unevenly across New Jersey townships. Unnecessary delays in processing applications and the imposition of unauthorized requirements in the application process violate the law and introduce arbitrariness to the exercise of a fundamental right." ("Firearms Purchase & Permitting in New Jersey," New Jersey Firearm Purchase and Permitting Study Commission, p. 4)
The Commission has offered the following recommendations to bring greater uniformity to the processing of firearms permit applications:

Women's Golf Selected for 2014 NCAA Championship Field
April 28, 2014
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The University of Kentucky women's golf team was selected to the 2014 NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championship for the 19th time in program history Monday night, as the Wildcats made the field and will compete in the East Regional at the Southwood Golf Club in Tallahassee, Fla., May 8-10. UK made the field of 72 teams for the fourth consecutive season and will make compete in the East Regional for the third time in the last four seasons.
"We are excited about being sent to Tallahassee for the NCAA regionals," said Kentucky head coach Golda Johansson Borst. "I feel like we got a strong draw this year and Florida courses typically treat our team well. We have learned a lot this year and we will draw on those experiences as we head to the Championship. I know our team has learned a lot this year that will help us next week."
The 24-team regional features five Southeastern Conference teams, including the 2014 SEC Champions Vanderbilt. Auburn, Georgia and South Carolina will also represent the league in the East Regional. Along with Vanderbilt, the field boasts 12 conference champions: Duke, Stanford, Pepperdine, Tulane, Louisville, East Tennessee State, Campbell, College of Charleston, Troy, Murray State, Seton Hall and Alabama State. The remainder of the field consists of UCF, Virginia, NC State, Florida State, Baylor, East Carolina and Texas State.
Kentucky is coming off an eighth-place tie in the 2014 SEC Championship held in Hoover, Ala. Sophomore Cylia Damerau recorded her second top 20 finish of the season by placing 18th with a 9-over par, 225. Senior Liz Breed carded an 11-over par, 227, to tie for 24th, while freshman Haley Mills posted a 13-over par, 229, to tie for 31st. Sophomore Sarah Harris and freshman Alessandra Walker tied for 53rd at 18-over par, 234. UK has won one tournament this season, while recording four top-five finishes. Breed leads the team with a 73.89 season scoring average with Mills closely behind at 74.04.
The NCAA Women's Golf Championship is made up of three regionals that each consist of 24 teams and six individuals. The two other 2014 regional sites include the Central Regional at the Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla., and the West Regional at the Tumble Creek Club at Suncandia Resort in Cle Elum, Wash.
The three regional sites are preliminary rounds of the NCAA Championship. Eight teams and two individuals will advance from each regional to participate in the championship's finals at the Tulsa Country Club in Tulsa, Okla., May 20-23.
This marks the fourth straight postseason appearance for Kentucky under the direction of Borst. The Wildcats placed 12th in the 2013 East Regional, 17th in the 2012 Central Regional and 20th in the 2011 East Regional.

- Implementation
- Testing/Validation
- Oscillators are a fundamental building block in traditional engineering applications (i.e. computers, radio, clocks) , as well as a recurrent motif in many biological systems (i.e.circadian rhythm, menstrual cycle).
- We intend to build a generic and modular synthetic biological oscillator that can become a fundamental building block in future synthetic biological applications.
- Previous oscillators have been attempted (such as the Repressilator by Elowitz and Leibler in 2000) but they often share the following problems:
- Noisy and Unstable (due to stochastic molecular events at the single cell level, cell-cell variability, cell division)
- Damping (i.e.with cell-cell asynchrony)
- Inflexible (i.e. lack of control over amplitude and frequency)
- No easy connectivity (hard to integrate into larger systems)
- Based on these past limitations, we have defined the specifications for our oscillator.
System Specifications
|Expected output
|Oscillations should be stable for greater then 10 cycles. Stable in amplitude, frequency and output profile.
|Output signal should have a high signal to noise ratio.
|Amplitude and frequency should be controllable.
|Amplitude Range
|Large enough to have an easy detection.
|Frequency Range
|From a period of the order of the hour to several hours.
|The oscillator should be easily integrated into other more complicated systems. Modular and generic output.
Part interface
Open issues
- In electronic, the stability of the oscillations is a key factor, but the profile of the ouput signal is also an important property of an oscillator. There is an important variety of output profiles used in electronic (harmonic, square-wave, triangle-wave). Sometimes, for a given application a given profile is required. read more>>
- Due to biological variability, getting a stable behavior might be challenging.

Theoretical Mechanobiology
Our research focuses on the development of mathematical/computational models to represent and simulate the interaction of mechanics with biology. It is fundamental to understanding many physiological and pathophysiological processes. In the longer term, research in this area may lead to the development of predictive models of disease to guide diagnosis and intervention.

The pug 'snatched' from a Bromley home and taken away in a car has been reunited with his family.
Bromley's RSPCA branch reported the news last night and thanked everyone who helped find the pet.
On Twitter, the animal welfare society team said a "BIG THANK YOU" and that the pooch was "returned to owners yesterday!"
Vanessa Lucas, 40, described how she and her two daughters had been left "devastated" after four-year-old Bertie on Sunday was picked up by an unknown woman.
But now Bertie has been reunited with the family, from Havelock Road, and rejoins fellow pug Peaches who had been "left all alone" by the incident.

Something Just Went BEZERK in the Gulf of Mexico. The US Navy just sunk a French Submarine
Poster Handle
Post Content
---snipped quotes---
Adding in my two-penny worth here,
, there's been plenty of talk already, about
quantum entanglements
"action at a distance"
on this Bezerk site but, let us not lose sight of the fact that
embedded in superstrings are maths Waveforms of
archetypal instructions
to organisms emanating from higher dimensions and as such, csnnot be manmade as they have not been fully decoded by micro/molecular biologists.
Any artificial attempts to replicate them must fall short of the real thing.
Back to the kryon material on advanced physics:
"Spiritual organizations are filled with miracles. Hospitals are seeing documented results of that which is called spontaneous remission. This is where, suddenly, cellular structure does something that science cannot begin to explain. A total remission of disease occurs, sometimes almost overnight. But I'll tell you what it is:
It's DNA temporarily going 100 percent for a moment and cleaning the body of disease.
You've seen it, but you just didn't know what it was.
So why don't you do it right now? If you can imagine it, then you can have it.
See yourself with pure cellular health. It serves the earth, dear Human Being, for you to live longer than you think you're going to live.
We need your light. So why not do it now?
Let all of those in the room join in compassionate consciousness right now in a quantum state that is entangled with all those here and reading, sending the compassion of healing to the ones who need it without even knowing their faces or their names. It's beautiful.
Some day you'll see what the ceremony of Human Beings together can do when you all walk out healed! Why not? When you can go to a meeting for half a day and come out younger than you've been - why not? Then you'll start to see all of what I have said today is accurate and true. It is against all logic of prevailing scientific thought, but well within the purview of the love of god".
Those who require conviction must need turn to Science where the quantum entanglement i.e., Superstringss can be seen to be modeled mathematically for added proof and the harmonic resonances accord with the Solfeggio scales, as in ancient times.
The Future of Science lies Here, ~ away can go your Junk DNA and We Are Whole Again".
I fully agree on this :
embedded in superstrings are maths Waveforms of
archetypal instructions
to organisms emanating from higher dimensions and as such, csnnot be manmade as they have not been fully decoded by micro/molecular biologists.
Any artificial attempts to replicate them must fall short of the real thing.
I just now read Kryons information, I did not had time before ...
The family before me is known and I will say it yet again, that there is no mystery about who sits here and who may be listening or eventually who may be reading.
It comes together in a timeless state
, which is
not the reality that you share at this moment
. It's
a reality
that I have of a timeless place
in a quantum state filled with the potentials
of those I know who will hear and read this message. So, although it may seem for you in the room to be now, it is all now for me.
THIS ^^^^ is AMAZING !
This is/could be the 'Quantum reality' I was also talking about earlier according to AUgie !
"Reality" as we are tought is a limited box ... and THAT is all wrong ! Reality are also the things we dont see or measure, the dimensions we are unaware of.
Even WE HUMANS have quantum abilities that we use, mostly during our sleep [in travels, or with Remote Viewing]. Some of us also experience and acces them in daytime [paranormal abilities].
If it is true what BHD&betterhalf and I [and all who agree on it] think, then
VOSTOK could indeed be such a TIMELESS QUANTUM PLACE filled with POTENTIAL !
A place where past and future and now, are woven and blended ... (A place druids and priestesses would use).
I wish I could take you back several thousand years. Slowly, as the time goes backwards, the buildings would disappear and everything would be reduced to dirt, and
the indigenous
would show themselves. If you took a look at what the indigenous were doing then, they had two things that they emphasized and two things that occupied all that was important to them.
The first was the honoring of their ancestors
, and the second was the honoring of Gaia.
The energies of the indigenous were focused on the land, but not just a land that would give them water or food,
but the actual energy
of the dirt of the earth. Many of you know of what I speak if you have studied their lives.
"As goes consciousness, goes Gaia. As goes Gaia, goes DNA." There is
a partnership involved
that is more than you think. The indigenous did not pray for rain. They did not pray for good crops and did not worship any deity.
In their reality, they felt the planet and they knew that it was part of them.
The ANCESTORS
of the "INDIGENOUS honoring their ancestors"
are the Ones that I refer to as "The ORIGINAL, The Shinning Ones" , those with the Golden Aura's
Those that were in Harmony and Balance with Earth
before the Annunaki took control
... who starts to understand that they can change their own fields through the
templates that
in them, through consciousness, pure intent, and through
that which is
You can change the quantum "print" of DNA with compassion!
HowwwwwwYeah !!!
The word FLOAT reconnects in my mind to Vostok and the "Fluid" that has been floating for thousands of years ...
From the beginning of this thread we have talked about the importance and relevance of CONSCIOUSNESS & COMPASSION ! And INTENT.
As Kryon says, this is pure science .. and not hocus-pocus ... but Our Scientists have to find ways to measure it, just like they needed to develop equpment to measure 'Infra-red Light' .. It always existed, even when we could not measure it with External mechanic tools.
With a big smile in my heart and on my face,
Here presented is a considered 'opinion' by, principally
and others of this newly formed group, based on their interpretations so far, of the recent emergence of
, coupled to some futuristic quantum physics (involving
quantum entaglements
) recently provided by
, on the Kryon website.
To help supplement this advanced, scientific interpretation of
and its possible relationship to our
collective consciousness
, here is a little more 'data' concerning the problem of
Junk DNA
~ leading to a view of the urgency of our need to reset and hence, reactivate it as soon as we can.
JUNK DNA is nothing more than hidden and dormant upgrade of our basic code!
Until scientists discard the shackles of dogmatic thought and establish an attunement with Nature, they will fail to realize that the key which unlocks the mysteries of not only Nature, but also serves as a portal between the physical and non physical realms is the vortex.
This vortical form is well evidenced in images of the vertical flow of sub atomic matter obtained by means of bubble chambers, where the vertical flow of such so-called "particles" conforms to the golden mean ratio 1:1.618. Note that this form of spiral repeats its proportions infinitely, no matter how large the spiral becomes, which is why the arms of some spiral galaxies are also in accordance with the same mathematical ratio.
The extremely sophisticated experiments of physicists Dr. George Merkl revealed that light consists of incredibly small crystals. It follows that the packets of energy and information comprising the strings of the author's postulate may also be of a crystalline nature. Such crystals would be oscillating at frequencies far greater than that of visible light and accordingly would be undetectable by means of conventional laboratory equipment.
The author surmises that such crystals would possess an octahedral geometry since the octahedral crystal has perfect internal symmetry. Crystals also possess the capability of storing and regulating information.It is believed by one researcher that DNA is itself an electromagnetic generator with RNA as an amplifier, the cell wall a noise filter and amino acids and enzymes as effectors of signals
Junk DNA
The big surprise to the scientists was that active genes make up only tiny fractions of the entire genome. Incredibly, they only make up 3 percent of the total DNA in our chromosomes. The genes are either alone or clustered together in larger groups, but in between each gene sequence, there are long stretches of DNA which do not appear to contain any type of code for anything.
These stretches have now been referred to by scientists as "Junk DNA," mainly because they have not figured out what secret message it contains. Michael Tellinger (Slave Species of God)
Alien DNA group of researchers working at The Human Genome Project will be announcing soon that they made an astonishing scientific discovery:
They believe so-called non-coding sequences (97%) in human DNA is no less than a genetic code of an unknown extraterrestrial life form.
Unlike normal genes, which carry the information that intracellular machinery uses to synthesize proteins, enzymes and other chemicals produced by our bodies, non-coding sequences are never used for any purpose. They are never expressed, meaning that the information they carry is never read, no substance is synthesized and they have no function at all. We exist on only 3% of our DNA.
Researchers began searching Human Genome Project databases for the four genes they isolated from junk DNA. Eventually, three of the four were found there.
What we see in our DNA is a program consisting of two versions, a big code and basic code. First fact is, the complete program was positively not written on Earth; that is now a verified fact. The second fact is, that genes by themselves are not enough to explain evolution; there must be something more in the game.
The third fact is, no creator of a new work, be it a composer, engineer or programmer, from Mars or Microsoft, will ever leave his work without the option for improvement or upgrade. Ingenious here is, that the upgrade is already enclosed - the
"junk DNA"
is nothing more than hidden and dormant upgrade of our basic code!
The complete program is elegant, very clever self-organizing, auto-executing, auto-developing and auto-correcting software for a highly advanced biological computer with build-in connection to the ageless energy and wisdom of the Universe. Software wise, within us is either short and diseased life, or potential for a super-intelligent super-being with a long and healthy life.
This triggers puzzling questions - was the reduction to the basic code done by sloppy programmers in a rush (as it appears to us) or, was the disabling of the big code
a purposeful act
which can be cancelled by "remote control." whenever desired?"

It was made to help disseminate the work of a research project on Antarctic ice sheets.
I had the 3rd of a series of Skype chats today, as I am completing some work to author a resource pack to support teachers in using the game with students.
From the website:
The game is called Ice Flows - because it does! Ice behaves like a fluid and flows due to gravity, much like a blob of treacle does, though a bit slower. Snow falls on the top of the ice sheet, and ice is lost at the edges and underneath through iceberg calving and melting.
If the inputs and outputs are equal, the ice sheet finds a balance – a "happy place" (or more scientifically, an equilibrium state), where the ice flows at a rate to balance these inputs and outputs.
The game is based on a simple ice sheet model which represents the way in which ice flows, and how that flow is altered by changes in the surrounding environment. Computer-based ice sheet simulation models are used by scientists to both understand how the ice behaves and to make projections for future behaviour.
Ice flows slowly, from a few metres per year, to several metres per day. In the game, time and space are modified to make the game playable.The game would take a very long time to play if we didn't speed up time, the game time for one level represents thousands of years, though changes in ice sheets over decades can cause a significant contribution to sea level change.
If the height and length of the ice sheet were representative of the real ice sheet , you would need to line up a few hundred phones in order to see the whole ice sheet. Hence, the ice sheet has been stretched in height in comparison to its length. Each profile represents about 1500 kilometres in length, and about 4000 metres in height.
This year is turning into a bumper year for ice bergs apparently, with reports of a large number in the sea off the coast of Canada, and into the North Atlantic.
The US Coastguard and the Canadian coastguard monitors the ice situation in the areas around the USA. There is likely to be an increase in their number as glaciers continue to retreat and become unstable. They have also been seen a lot earlier than usual this year. More signs of trouble ahead.
One (short term) benefit to an increased number of icebergs is that they are popular with tourists because of their beauty, so there may be more iceberg tours...
There were also plans in the news earlier this week to tow icebergs to places which are in need of fresh water, such as the UAE...
I'll keep you posted on the completion and availability of the finished resource pack.

Burger King Rolling Out Food Trucks Because Of Course
Whether it's decided to jump its throned-ass on the bandwagon of a peaking trend or still smarting from being bumped out of its number two fast food spot by Wendy's, Burger King has announced it will roll out forty of its own food trucks throughout various cities starting today.
Intended to get folks to sample its new menu, which includes Mc-Donald's-copying items like smoothies, snack wraps, frappes, and crispy chicken strips -- all apparently rife with the strong smell of desperation -- the King ain't sayin' which cities its forty food trucks will appear in, but according to the Gothamist, New York City Council members have already asked the fast food giant to please stay the hell out of the Big Apple.
Will the King's road show make its way into the Valley? We'll have to wait and see, but one thing's for sure: having it our way has officially hit the road.

Jordin Sparks Talks Upcoming Album and Acting Aspirations
Jordin Sparks, perhaps best known for her 'American Idol' win during the sixth season, is taking her sweet time working on her new album, which will follow up 2009's 'Battlefield.' Despite working at her own preferred pace, Sparks did issue a teaser earlier this year in the form of the single 'I Am Woman,' which she performed on the 'Idol' stage last spring. So it's not like she isn't being active or sharing her work-in-progress with fans.
"I'm still working on it and I don't really want to rush because I want it to be right," Sparks, 21, told Billboard. "['I Am Woman'] was definitely something to give my fans different to chew on, something a little bit edgier with more attitude … I want the music that I put out — and especially after putting out 'I Am Woman' — to make sense and be cohesive."
The song certainly has attitude and Sparks worked it when she performed it live, tossing off her trench coat to reveal her newly svelte, smokin' hot body, which she also tweeted photos of through the spring. This new edgy version of Sparks is something we're want to see (and hear) more of.
Music isn't the only field that is grabbing Sparks' interest as of late. The talented singer has been going on auditions for film roles. With an appearance on Nickelodeon's 'Big Time Rush' on her resume, Sparks should have an easy time making the leap from the studio to the big screen in the next few years.
However, Sparks is keeping her option opens regarding working in front of the camera, and even has a legal/crime procedural in her sights. She said, "I wouldn't mind guest-starring on a law show or something. I love all the criminal shows, 'CSI,' 'Law & Order' and 'House' as well, all the medical shows," the 'Tattoo' singer said. "Hopefully I'll have some time to go to an acting coach and really try and perfect that."
Sparks is totally tearing a page out of Taylor Swift's book, as Swift makes no secret of her love for crime procedural TV. Maybe they should co-star on a series together. 'CSI' writers, are you listening? Sparks and Swift could be the new 'Cagney and Lacey.'

Recently I worked with him for regarding my tax problem.
He gave me a lot of advices and alternative choices.
If you have a problem with your tax, I highly recommend him.
Thanks again.
Posted by Sharon
Within the past 3 years I've endured financial failure, separation, and illness. If someone would've told me a few months ago that I would be sleeping through the night again, waking up refreshed and eager to start the day, I would have never believed them. That was my situation before I met my attorney Larry Strauss. Bankruptcy can be a disheartening experience and I was fortunate enough to have Mr. Strauss make the process as quick and painless as possible. He was always there to respond to my questions or concerns, often responding to email within minutes. Mr. Strauss was willing and able to roll up his sleeves with me to get the relief I needed and deserved. He found the best and least-burdensome solution for me and never made me feel like a number or just another file passing through the office. Yes, he is a professional, knowledgeable, and competent, but he is also down to earth, open, and never ever made me feel guilty or ashamed that I was in the position of filing for bankruptcy. Thank you Larry for your diligence, and hard work.

Most investors spend a fair chunk of their time poring over tea-leaf readings and peering into crystal balls to find the answer to the question: where's the money going to be made?
Well, Morningstar has released a large cap round-up and nominates two sectors that should deliver as much as 6 per cent a year above the index over the next three years. The two sectors are materials and energy.
Clearly, they think the sell-off in resources has gone too far and stocks such as
Over the past two years the major S&P ASX 200 index has delivered a total return of 40 per cent but BHP Billiton has returned just 8 per cent and Rio Tinto 3 per cent.
Indeed, the poor performance of the materials sector means its weighting in the benchmark index has almost halved over those two years, down from about 30 per cent to closer to 15 per cent. At the same time, the financial services sector has gone from 30 per cent to about 35 per cent.
Morningstar also believes investors will not get a lot of joy from the index over the next three years and thinks it will be relatively flat.
Tom Whitelaw, the research manager notes some fund managers are also starting to see some value emerging in the resources sector.
For example, in 2011 Maple-Brown Abbott had their highest ever underweight to resources stocks.
"Over the following two years it closed to their smallest underweight for over a decade. Like the majority of managers across our coverage universe, they also favour the higher quality majors, and have even begun buying Woodside for the first time in 12 years" Mr Whitelaw said.
Industrials however, are starting to look a little expensive and an excess return of just 1 per cent a year over the next three years is forecast. If Morningstar is on the money, then as the accompanying graph shows, sectors such as consumer discretionary, IT, utilities, healthcare and telcos should be avoided.
The research house is by no means predicting a resources boom and stock picking will be vital, but the "general view is that there is now value in those companies strong enough to survive what is expected to be a tough global economic outlook with lower demand growth from emerging markets. A weakening $A helps," he said. Yield stocks still come up trumps despite the prospect, eventually, of the US Federal Reserve getting back on track with its tapering program.
Conventional wisdom is that stocks with a decent dividend will come under pressure once the Fed swings into action.
Ironically enough, the quantitative analysts at JPMorgan have done some analysis on returns for shares in September and the dividend play was still the best performer.
The broker looked at the S&P/ASX 200's performance during September through several factors, such as forward earnings momentum, 5-year historical earnings growth, 60-day volatility and forecast price earnings ratio. The factor that performed the best during September was dividend yield. The broker noted it was up 8.1 per cent for the month, and up 71.5 per cent for the year-to-date.
Some of the stocks with the highest forward dividend yield included CFS Retail Property Trust Real Estate, 7 per cent, Stockland , 6.8 per cent, National Australia Bank, 6.2 per cent, Sydney Airport, 6.16 per cent.

An early morning fire Saturday in the Milwaukee archdiocese destroyed historic buildings at St. Lawrence High School Seminary in Mount Calvary, one of the few remaining high school seminaries in the country.
No one was injured in the five-alarm blaze that leveled the seminary's original chapel and the adjoining St. Joseph Hall, both built in 1873 atop a tall hill overlooking a region known as the Holy Land east of Fond du Lac.
Firefighters from 41 agencies in Fond du Lac, Sheboygan, Manitowoc, Winnebago and Calumet counties responded to the fire shortly after daybreak.
"We received a call at 5:30 a.m. of smoke in the building. Responding firefighters found heavy smoke coming from the building," said Mount Calvary Fire Chief Mark Petrie. "Our firefighters entered the building only to find heavy fire, so we backed out and went into a defensive mode."
Petrie said firefighters successfully focused on saving the adjacent Laurentianum building, which houses the school's administrative offices and is connected to the destroyed buildings by a brick-encased elevator shaft.
He said no cause had been determined yet for the fire, but it most likely started on the first floor near the elevator.
The construction of the buildings, which included hard-to-reach pockets of space created during earlier remodeling projects, and the sheer height of the building perched on top of the hill posed challenges for firefighters, Petrie said.
Firefighters contained the flames after two hours but spent all morning fighting small fires in tight spots necessitating demolition of parts of the buildings not destroyed by fire.
The blaze hit as 40 band students from the seminary were less than two hours from leaving for a solo and ensemble contest in nearby Kohler.
St. Joseph Hall contained the school's band and choir departments.
"These kids had been practicing their solos and ensembles for weeks, but we had to pull out of the contest because they couldn't get their instruments or music," Capuchin Franciscan Fr. John Holly, rector and president, told the Catholic Herald, a publication that serves the Catholic community in southeastern Wisconsin.
Freshman Ben Triplett of Annandale, Minn., had no choice but to stand and watch his dreams of winning an award, and his tenor saxophone, go up in flames.
"That was my own saxophone. I owned it," said Triplett, who plays in the band and jazz band. "I just can't believe something like this happened here. We woke up to sirens, looked out our windows and yelled, 'Guys. That building is on fire.' "
In addition to the school's music program, St. Joseph Hall also housed religion classrooms and faculty offices.
As firefighters methodically tore down still-burning St. Joseph Hall, with help from a large excavator, Fr. Bob Wheelock, who uses a walker to get around campus, turned his walker and sat dejectedly on an attached seat watching the scene of destruction.
"That excavator is parked right on top of what was my office," said the priest, who is a spiritual adviser to the school's 178 male students. "I've lost everything, all my notes and a Bible that probably represents 35 to 40 years a biblical studying with everything underlined. Now it's all gone. It's quite a jolt."
This isn't the first time a destructive fire hit the St. Lawrence campus.
Capuchin friars started the Convent Latin School at Mount Calvary in 1860 and founded St. Lawrence Seminary in 1882.
On Christmas Day in 1868, a fire destroyed the friars' monastery. The fire hit during a typhoid fever epidemic among the seminary students.
Students were allowed to stay in a newly-constructed brick building at the Mount Carmel Convent, operated by the School Sisters of Notre Dame a short distance from the seminary.
The convent closed in 2013 after 160 years, a blow to this small farming community that now must deal with another historic loss.
"Historically, these are buildings that have served us well," Holly said. "They've had a number of incarnations over their 141-year existence."
"It's a great loss. The buildings were very much in use seven days a week," he said. "But we'll make other arrangements for our classes and figure out what to do in the future -- to rebuild or whatever. We'll be all right."

Effective systems management solutions require the challenging integration of management information coming from a diverse set of sources, e.g., management products, personnel records, accounting systems and the like. Examples of such management challenges are:
- Internet-scale management in cloud computing, managing applications that use services and resources from multiple providers distributed over the cloud;
- Providing "situation-specific", on-demand remote assistance to operators where in-depth expertise is not locally available; and
- Management applications where sources of data are diverse, such as energy-efficient (green) computing where there is a mix of IT and non-IT data.
Standards and initiatives are emerging to facilitate the integration of management information, but they are not effective in keeping up with the increasing diversity and changes in the sources of information as well as the management requirements. If information relevant to management tasks can be extracted easily from the cloud of information, it will pave the way to building powerful management applications and solutions efficiently.
The goal of the Fusio project is to enable simple and cost-effective creation of integrated management solutions. The project is building a data integration platform for rapidly building custom management applications with the following benefits:
- Loose coupling of data across diverse data sources
- Flexible, lightweight, and fast integration
- Discovery of new relationships between data
- Enabling of new types of management solutions
- "Google-like" (but focused) search
- Context-aware applications
- Internet-style, ad-hoc data mash-ups
The ability to pull together information from any relevant data source, e.g., management products, calendars, databases, directories etc., and to extract and establish relationships between data within and across sources makes it possible to build management solutions with different perspectives and capabilities in a quick and easy fashion.
Fusio architecture
The architecture of Fusio is shown in Figure 1.
In many cases, management data sources do not share the same or compatible data model, nor do they employ the same methods to access data. Fusio therefore assumes a heterogeneous environment: in response to a query, it uses source specific methods to collect data, converts collected data into a semantic Web representation with little or no manipulation of the original data, and uses rule-based inferencing to refine and relate data from multiple sources. Text-based search and a Fusio data-model are used to focus and simplify this process.
Fusio does not introduce an additional central repository of management information, as such a store would potentially be huge and would not be suitable to retain the needed transient data, e.g., CPU load right now. Therefore all information in Fusio is fetched on demand in a selective fashion driven by the user query, using partial caching for efficiency.
Fusio is based on semantic Web, linked data and text-based search technologies.

Don't arrest a relative of a Venice, FL Policeman if you know what's good for ya...09/28/09
So here's what happened. Venice Police officer Michael Frassetti arrested Joshua Rose for drunk driving on May 28, 2008. Joshua Rose's uncle/cousin (it is somehow unclear) is Lieutenant Mike Rose...Frassetti's immediate supervisor. On June 4, Lieutenant Mike Rose informed officer Michael Frassetti that he was under investigation for deleting police files. Turns out that while said files are missing, the IT system of the Venice PD is so bad that often files are screwed up or deleted quite often...but that doesn't stop the prosecution of what appears to be a good cop.
So the moral of the story here is that there are a few police that are corrupt that will lie and cheat to get their way. In doing this, they make ALL police look corrupt. Maybe the police should kick the bad cops out?

A Tribute to John Stockton09/09/09
John Stockton, the all-time NBA leader in assists and steals, will be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame by the second greatest true point guard ever, Isiah Thomas. To put his statistical accomplishments into perspective, he had 15,806 assists and 3,265 steals. The #2 assists leader was Marc Jackson with 10,334 assists and the #2 steals leader was Michael Jordan with only 2,514 steals.
He was an incredibly clutch shooter (watch the highlight videos), a tenacious defender, set picks better than most big men (because he usually cheated) and wore the shortest shorts in modern basketball. He was also selected as one of the 50 greatest basketball players of all time, was co-MVP of the NBA all-star game (he was a 10 time All-Star) and was a member of the original Dream Team - arguably the greatest team in the history of ALL sports. John Stockton was the greatest pure point guard of all time. He was (and still is) my basketball idol and he was always the player I imagined I was when I was playing.
And Jordan still pushed off...

I hope these things put a little smile on your face too.

Cantina Band cover by Bryan Johnston
Here I go with another local item (see my previous post). Bryan Johnston of Kelowna, British Columbia (just up the road from Penticton, for those of you who have read my book) has released this cover of the Cantina Band song on SoundCloud. Have a listen and, if you like it, download it.
(He also offers a pretty funky cover of K-os's Crabbuckit.)

Up till now, the fake augmented reality (AR) seen in various guises in movies like Minority Report have been largely confined to Hollywood and science fiction.
But by the looks of the latest video demos, AR seems to be tantalisingly close. Crucially, basic AR is now possible with nothing more than a mobile phone, unlike previous demos which have involved walking around with a large backpack strapped to your body.
The video below shows basic AR in action in the form of an AR shooter: a game titled Arhrrrr which blends live action video overlayed with game graphics.
The processing is taken care of by Nvidia's new Tegra platform, while the game's "maps" are generated by pointing the phones camera (in this case 5MP) at a 2D drawing/printout lying on a table.
The end result is a 3D world which seems to spring forth in realtime, with buildings popping up, as players move the real world around the game "map".
An earlier VR attempt by the developers, at Developers at Georgia Tech Augmented Environments Lab and the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD-Atlanta), shows a virtual city created out of a box sitting on revolving office chair.
The gaming world is also supplying technology with intriguing potential for use in AR gaming and virtual worlds - specifically, motion control devices in the form of the Nintendo Wii and Microsoft's new Natal platform.
Natal can recognise a player's skeletal structure, as well as doing some sophisticated translation of body physics into in-game movement. As a control mechanism this is fascinating, but next step is to merge the game graphics with the real world. This is something game developers are beginning to try.
This augmented reality demonstration video (embedded below) shows how far AR could go. At point 2:35 in the video shows an virtual cityscape and car chase, overlayed onto table surface. At point 2:58 the demonstrator puts a real-life object (a toy bus) into the game "world" - the game detects the object and incorporates the bus into the gameplay.
At point 4:06 in the video, the demonstrator "sees" advertising and other elements on a real-life hardcopy newspaper come to life on the screen of a handheld computer.
Another video below, shows the ability to place 3D elements from Google Earth on a "real" desktop.

New court documents unravel that the former Chicago Bulls star put his signature on agreement to dissolve his marriage to wife Michelle after she filed for divorce for the second time.
Eight years after his third wife, Michelle, first filed for divorce, Dennis Rodman finally agrees to put an end to their marriage for good. TMZ has just come out with a claim that it has obtained new court documents which show that the NBA Hall of Famer has added his signature to Michelle's divorce papers.
With his agreement, both Dennis and Michelle are now officially single. Though so, the five-time NBA champion still has some financial issues to work out with his ex. Back in March, the former Chicago Bulls forward was told by an Orange County court commissioner to come up with $860,376 in child and spousal support he owes his ex by May 29 or face a possible 20 days in jail.
Dennis' attorney and his financial advisor, Peggy Williams, however claimed that the former Chicago Bulls star won't be able to pay because he's broke. "In all honesty, Dennis, although a very sweet person, is an alcoholic," she said. "His sickness impacts his ability to get work. This case, especially his wife filling for divorce, has put him on a binge that I have never seen before."
Dennis married Michelle, with whom he has two children together, in 2003. Michelle first filed for divorce in 2004. After a failed attempt at a reconciliation, she re-filed the papers once again in 2012. On the reason behind the re-filing, her attorney Mary Ann Noiroux told TMZ that Dennis' third wife just wanted closure for their son and daughter.

Don't you think that something is fucking wrong here when billion of people are dying hopelessly despite fighting their best and the ones having the possibility to end the crisis are emo wimps? Note that so many people die without being able to put up a fight because they're powerless, and those with power were grieving about umm something.

a- Probably, and siscon from Kazuya to Kazuha.
b- First, she needs to tone down on the crazy dictator attitude and return to the sweet innocent girl we know and love, while still being so powerful, and then we'll talk about harem possibilities.

sigh i really got to say i love everything about this manga except for the pathetic MC kazuya. If he just dies soon that would make me more excited. I can't stand how he is becoming MORE DENSE then he was in the beginning of the manga. He fully respected and was in awe of stella in the beginning. He's doing something even far worse then anything before in terms of how he treats stella. Finally after all the drama of the brother arc and stella almost dying multiple times, stella comes to really trust kazuya and now he's basically just mind f**king her by being so incredibly dense it hurts my head. Every time stella is about to close the deal and do something that is probably incredibly hard for her to do after being abused by her brother for so long he assumes its okay to give massages to naked chicks. Then when he gets yelled at for being caught he acts like a little girl and doesn't even chase after the woman he has come to respect and i thought liked/loved? Rather he scratches his a*s and is like wah wah wah why is she upset i dont get it cause ive become even denser then i was in the beginning of the series. Normally I would never ever suggest this kind of topic but I hope someone just out right rapes him. Because knowing his character he would probably just cry afterwards or sob in the corner rather then enjoy it with beautiful woman. Its surreal how hes just becoming even more dense to everything. K now that my raging over how pathetic this MC is I gotta say if he doesnt change in the next couple chapters at least for me ill have to drop the series since my head may explode from seeing how dumb he is.
Also I am curious since I have really no understanding of Japanese culture but do they love super dense MCs over there? I have read so many mangas and watched animes where the MC is beyond comprehensibly stupid / dense / a wuss when it comes to girls
EDIT: Also I dunno about most people but pretty sure if you are seeing smoking hot chicks naked what seems to be on a regular basis and have never even kissed one when they make moves on you, then he's either not straight or just A Sexual (i.e. not interested in either sexes)

hey,guys whom you think that will be the final boss of the freezing?
you think that the Novas can take on a human female form?if yes,one Nova can join in kazuya's harem.
I also think that both kazuya and chiffon will return,only this time as one humanoid Nova, in other words, as one warrior Nova or as one Nova's allied.
well guys you think that kazuha had brother complex for kazuya?
and you think that ticy can join in kazuya harem?
obs.who have larger boobs:stella or ouka?

Hmm, we've never seen Novas take on human forms, unless Maria Lancelot was born a Nova and assumed a human shape to understand them better. Other than that, highly unlikely, especially if the Novas consider themselves superior to humans, why bring themselves down to OUR level, eh?
Kazuha is somewhat plausible, since she still has a body to resurrect. But Chiffon completely disintegrated, there's nothing left to resurrect. Unless the Novas aren't purely physical beings, but that's just speculation at this point.
Brother complex? You betcha. She and Ouka must've had quite the rivalry for Kazuya, and if Satellizer's inherited it, I feel sorry for her.
Ticy? Hecht no.
Satellizer by a landslide. Just look at picture of her in the wedding dress.

In this chapter, Mazrui seeks to demonstrate that the origins of pan-Africanism and the origins of modern black intellectualism are interlinked. The discussion entails a broad overview of pan-Africanism activists dating back to the author's early years as an academic at the Universities of Makarere and Nairobi. Mazrui explains how and why African intellectualism had declined and disappeared in East Africa with reference to Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda.
Mazrui also claims that as the twenty-first century approached, new developments began to help an intellectual revival in Africa. He mentions the pro-democracy movements which arose from Lusaka to Lagos, the end of the cold war, the overthrow of long-established regimes and the rapid collapse of political apartheid in South Africa. The paper also addresses three levels of pan-Africanism - sub-Saharan, trans-Saharan and transatlantic. The author explores the relationship between Africa and its diaspora abroad and also explores the relationship between African Americans and American Africans. Mazrui concludes by asserting that an Africa on a global scale is in the making and that its consciousness requires an intellectual vanguard.

Jerry Buss (Associated Press Photo)
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Jerry Buss, the Los Angeles Lakers' playboy owner who shepherded the NBA franchise to 10 championships from the '80s Showtime dynasty to the Kobe Bryant era, died Monday, his assistant said.
Buss died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, said Bob Steiner, his assistant. He was 80.
He'd been hospitalized for cancer, but the immediate cause of death was kidney failure, Steiner said.
Under Buss' leadership since 1979, the Lakers became Southern California's most beloved sports franchise and a worldwide extension of Hollywood glamour. Buss acquired, nurtured and befriended a staggering array of talented players and basketball minds during his Hall of Fame tenure.
Few owners in sports history can even approach Buss' accomplishments with the Lakers, who made the NBA finals 16 times through 2011 during his 32 years in charge, winning 10 titles between 1980 and 2010. The Lakers easily are the NBA's winningest franc hise since he bought the club.
Few owners have ever been more beloved by their players than Buss, who always referred to the Lakers as his extended family. Working with front-office executives Jerry West and Mitch Kupchak, Buss spent lavishly to win his titles despite lacking a huge personal fortune, often running the NBA's highest payroll while also paying high-profile coaches Pat Riley and Phil Jackson.
Always an innovative businessman, Buss paid for the Lakers through both their wild success and his own groundbreaking moves to raise revenue. He co-founded a basic-cable sports
network and sold the naming rights to the Forum at times when both now-standard strategies were unusual, adding justification for his induction into the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame in 2010.
Magic Johnson and fellow Hall of Famers Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and James Worthy formed lifelong bonds with Buss during the Lakers' run to five titles in nine years in the 1980s, when the L akers earned a reputation as basketball's most exciting team with their glamorous Showtime style.
Jackson then led Shaquille O'Neal and Bryant to a threepeat from 2000-02, rekindling the Lakers' mystique, before Bryant and Pau Gasol won two more titles under Jackson in 2009 and 2010.
Although Buss was proudest of his two hands full of NBA title rings, he also was a scholar, Renaissance man and bon vivant who epitomized California cool - and a certain Los Angeles lifestyle - for his entire public life.
The father of six rarely appeared in public without at least one attractive, much younger woman on his arm at USC football games, boxing matches, poker tournaments - and, of course, Lakers games from his private box at Staples Center, which was built under his watch.
Buss earned a Ph.D. in chemistry at age 24 and had careers in aerospace and real estate development before getting into sports. With money largely from his Santa Monica real-estate ventures, Buss bought the then-struggling Lakers, the NHL's Los Angeles Kings and both clubs' arena - the Forum - from Jack Kent Cooke in a $67.5 million deal that was the largest sports transaction in history at the time.
In January 2011, Forbes estimated the Lakers were worth $643 million - the second-most valuable NBA franchise.
Buss also helped change televised sports by co-founding the Prime Ticket network in 1985, even receiving a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2006 for his work in television. Breaking the contemporary model of subscription services for televised sports, Buss' Prime Ticket put beloved broadcaster Chick Hearn and the Lakers' home games on basic cable.
Buss also sold the naming rights to the Forum in 1988 to Great Western Savings & Loan - another deal that was ahead of its time.
Born in Salt Lake City, Gerald Hatten Buss was raised in Wyoming and attended USC for graduate school, eventually becoming a chemistry professor and working a s a chemist for the Bureau of Mines before his life took an abrupt turn into wealth and sports.
The former mathematician claimed his fortune grew out of a $1,000 real-estate investment in a West Los Angeles apartment building with partner Frank Mariani, an aerospace engineer.
Buss purchased Cooke's entire Los Angeles sports empire in 1979, including a 13,000-acre ranch in Kern County. Buss' love of basketball was the motivation for his purchase, and he immediately worked to transform the Lakers - who had won just one NBA title since moving west from Minneapolis in 1960 - into a star-powered endeavor befitting Hollywood.
"One of the first things I tried to do when I bought the team was to make it an identification for this city, like Motown in Detroit," he told the Los Angeles Times in 2008. "I try to keep that identification alive. I'm a real Angeleno. I want us to be part of the community."
Buss' plans immediately worked: Johnson, Abdul-Jabbar and coa ch Paul Westhead led the Lakers to the 1980 title. Johnson's ball-handling wizardry and Abdul-Jabbar's smooth inside game made for an attractive style of play evoking Hollywood flair and West Coast cool.
Riley, the former broadcaster who fit the L.A. image perfectly with his slick-backed hair and chiseled good looks, was surprisingly promoted by Buss early in the 1981-82 season after West declined to co-coach the team. Riley became one of the best coaches in NBA history, leading the Lakers to four straight NBA finals and four titles, with Worthy, Michael Cooper, Byron Scott and A.C. Green playing major roles.
Overall, the Lakers made the finals nine times in Buss' first 12 seasons while rekindling the NBA's best rivalry with the Boston Celtics, and Buss basked in the worldwide celebrity he received from his team's achievements. His womanizing and partying became Hollywood legend, with even his players struggling to keep up with Buss' lifestyle.
Johnson's HIV diagnosis and retirement in 1991 staggered Buss and the Lakers, the owner recalled in 2011. The Lakers struggled through much of the 1990s, going through seven coaches and making just one conference finals appearance in an eight-year stretch despite the 1996 arrivals of O'Neal, who signed with Los Angeles as a free agent, and Bryant, the 17-year-old high schooler acquired in a draft-week trade.
Shaq and Kobe didn't reach their potential until Buss persuaded Jackson, the Chicago Bulls' six-time NBA champion coach, to take over the Lakers in 1999. Los Angeles immediately won the next three NBA titles in brand-new Staples Center, AEG's state-of-the-art downtown arena built with the Lakers as the primary tenant.
After the Lakers traded O'Neal in 2004, they hovered in mediocrity again until acquiring Gasol in a heist of a trade with Memphis in early 2008. Los Angeles made the next three NBA finals, winning two more titles.
Through the Lakers' frequent successes and occasional struggles, Buss never stopped living his Hollywood dream. He was an avid poker player, frequently participating in high-stakes tournaments, and a fixture on the Los Angeles club scene well into his 70s, when a late-night drunk-driving arrest in 2007 - with a 23-year-old woman in the passenger seat of his Mercedes-Benz - prompted him to cut down on his partying.
Buss owned the NHL's Kings from 1979-87, and the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks also won two league titles under Buss' ownership. He also owned Los Angeles franchises in World Team Tennis and the Major Indoor Soccer League.
Buss' children moved into leadership roles with the Lakers in their father's later years. Jim Buss, the Lakers' executive vice president of player personnel and the second of Buss' six children, has taken over much of the club's primary decision-making responsibilities in the last few years, while daughter Jeanie is a longtime executive on the franchise's business side - and Ja ckson's longtime companion.
Yet Jerry Buss served two terms as President of the NBA's Board of Governors, and was actively involved in the 2011 lockout negotiations, developing blood clots in his legs attributed to his extensive travel during that time.
