Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 14/12/2012 (1711 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: My common-law husband of 23 years had an affair two summers ago. I kicked him out immediately. In February, I allowed him back home to work things out. He promised me he would never see this woman again. She's had plenty of affairs and has broken up more than one marriage. She has quite the reputation for preying on married men. Gut instincts are telling me he's seeing her again, and those instincts are how I caught him in the first place. This past Saturday, he told me he was going to a stag for a co-worker's brother and needed me to get his dress pants ready to go. The story kept changing, First he was getting picked up at home, then he was getting dropped off -- supposed to go at 6:30 p.m, but took off in a rush at 4:30 p.m. I knew something was up. At 11:30 p.m. I called his co-worker on his cell and was going to ask to speak to my husband to see if he needed a designated driver to get home. Well, he answered thinking it was my husband, and asked him why he hasn't shown up yet! My husband showed up at home at 4 a.m. I asked him how the stag was and he said, "Great!" He had that look on his face I have come to know well -- the lying-because-he's-cheating look. I found out today the woman he had an affair with had her work Xmas party on Saturday, and that is why he needed to dress up. He insists he was at the stag, but I found out first-hand he wasn't. I love this man dearly, but I cannot tolerate his extramarital affair. What can I do? -- Still Love Him, Winnipeg
Dear Still Love Him: It sounds like you want to stay with him, but this is twice now and he has created, all on his own, an open relationship with you. If you want to stay and want equality, you need to work out a situation where you can step out and see someone else too, if you want to. Does that appeal to you? If it doesn't, your other two choices are to stay and suffer, or leave and suffer -- at least for a time, since you say you still "love him dearly." What exactly do you love about him? This man is a liar and a cheater and only sorry when he gets caught. In fact, he thought he'd learned how to hide better -- until this stag/Christmas party ruse. Doesn't the fact he had you get his clothes ready to go out with her drive you crazy? What does it take to make you mad? Counselling is definitely in order -- more for you than for him. He is who he is!
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I found a box of stuff hidden in the basement I didn't recognize so I took a look. It was wrapped in Christmas paper -- a present from my husband and yes, I snooped. The outfit, if you could call it that, was made of PVC. You know, that kind of patent leathery material. It was a Catwoman suit. I don't want any Catwoman suit. He would know that about me. So who is it for? Is it for him as fetish wear when I'm not around, and wrapped to look like Christmas gift so I wouldn't look? Or is it to give to some other woman who would wear it for him? Then why would he leave it in the basement? It is brand new -- never been worn, came from online, I think. I covered it up again, and now it's like an elephant sitting down there under a blanket. I think about it all the time. What should I do? -- Going Out of My Mind, Winnipeg
Dear Going: Take the box upstairs, put it on the kitchen table and just say, "What is this all about?' You don't have to fill in the awkward silence. Just wait. Don't interrupt. Watch his face the whole time. If he's not talking after five minutes, play "Guess" with him -- "Is it this? Is it that? Is this Catwoman costume meant for me? For you? Or someone else?" and watch carefully. When there's an involuntary jerking of some part of his body, you will usually know you have hit on the answer. You may want to go online and read the some of the many lists of ways you can tell when a person is lying such as opening their eyes too wide to try to look innocent, scratching their noses because the nose becomes itchy in stressful situations. You need to know what's going on and he is the only one who can tell you.

Kekkei tōta (血継淘汰; ; Literally meaning "a selection of blood inheritance" or "Bloodline Selection"; ) is an advanced and very rare form of a kekkei genkai. The only known example is Dust Release, a combination of three different nature transformations — earth, wind, and fire.
Trivia Edit
- It's possible that these techniques are not genetic, as Ōnoki stated that his master, Mū, passed the secrets of Dust Release on to him,[1] though it is unknown whether the two share any familial relations.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jacksonville Jaguars have fired head coach Mike Mularkey after the worst season in franchise history, the team announced Thursday morning.
Newly hired team General Manager David Caldwell held a meeting to dismiss Mularkey, who joined the team a year ago, the team said.
"I informed Mike today that he will not return as head coach of the Jaguars," said Caldwell, who was hired Tuesday and introduced Thursday afternoon at a news conference at EverBank Field. "I know Mike well and do not want anyone to misinterpret the rationale behind my decision. Mike is an excellent coach and I am sure he will succeed in his next stop in the NFL. However, I must do what I believe is best for the Jacksonville Jaguars and immediately explore every avenue possible to turn our football team around. For that to happen as seamlessly as we want, and as quickly as our fans deserve, I feel it is in everyone's best interests for an immediate and clean restart."
As for Caldwell, "This is where I want to be," he said. "I know we can be successful here."
Mularkey, who went 2-14 this season, looked like he would be one and done when Khan parted ways with general manager Gene Smith last week. Even though Khan ultimately hired Mularkey, Smith directed the coaching search last January that started and ended with the former Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator.#Jaguars twitter feed
"Mike Mularkey is leaving our organization with my utmost respect," Jaguars owner Shad Khan said. "Mike gave the Jaguars everything he had on and off the field, and his efforts as our head coach will always be appreciated. Mike will land on his feet soon. Until then, I wish nothing but the best for Mike and his family."
IMAGES: Mularkey's one year in Jacksonville
Channel 4 sports director Sam Kouvaris said Mularkey knew before the season that the Jaguars were short in a lot of areas and that it would take two to three years to build a team that could win consistently.
"It's why Mike signed a three-year deal in order to get the opportunity to win those games, those close games," Kouvaris said. "You heard him say many times during the season that we keep making those mistakes that beat us, and that was kind of code for, 'Hey, teams can make mistakes and overcome them.' They didn't have enough talent to do that. And so Mularkey gets the short end of the stick here. It's really unfair and really a shame, but that is how that league works."
Mularkey's brief tenure -- he lasted one day shy of a year -- was filled with mistakes. His biggest one may have been his loyalty to Smith, who assembled a roster that lacked talent on both sides of the ball.
Mularkey probably stuck with Smith's franchise quarterback, Blaine Gabbert, longer than he should have. And the coach's insistence that the team was closer than outsiders thought and his strong stance that he had the roster to turn things around became comical as the losses mounted. The Jaguars lost eight games by at least 16 points, a staggering number of lopsided losses in a parity-filled league.
Mularkey would have been better served had he said publicly what he voiced privately: that the Jaguars didn't have enough playmakers or a starting-caliber quarterback.
Instead, he never conceded that Jacksonville was a rebuilding project that needed time.
Mularkey signed a three-year contract on Jan. 11, 2012, getting a second chance to be a head coach six years after resigning with the Buffalo Bills.
His return was shaky from the start.
His best player, running back Maurice Jones-Drew, skipped offseason workouts as well as training camp and the preseason in a contract dispute. His first draft pick, receiver Justin Blackmon, was arrested and charged with aggravated DUI in June. And his team was riddled with injuries, including key ones to linebacker Daryl Smith and Jones-Drew.
Even things he had control over went awry.
He had to backtrack after saying Chad Henne would compete with Gabbert for the starting job in March. He created a stir by threatening to fine players up to $10,000 for discussing injuries. He initially played rookie receiver Kevin Elliott over Cecil Shorts III early on. And he really irked some players with tough, padded practices late in a lost season.
Throw in the way he handled injuries to receiver Laurent Robinson (four concussions before going on IR) and Jones-Drew (admittedly should have had foot surgery sooner), and there were reasons to doubt whether Mularkey was cut out to be a head coach. Dating back to his final season in Buffalo, Mularkey has lost 20 of his last 23 games.
Nonetheless, if Khan really wanted to fire Mularkey, he would have done that after the season finale along with Smith.
So this was Caldwell's call.
Caldwell and Mularkey spent four years together in Atlanta, getting to know each other well enough that Caldwell didn't need a sit down with Mularkey after he got the GM job Tuesday.
Fans, for the most part, say they're very happy change is on the way.
"First impression, not surprised at all after a 2-14 year," Jaguars fan Danny Smith said of Mularkey's firing. "So it's something you could anticipate with a new general manager."
"It probably needed to be done," fan Nathan Terrill added. "I know we had some injuries, but every team has injuries."
"You've got to start at the top," fan Tom Doyle said. "Since the new owner is giving a hands-off approach, the new general manager is going to have to run the whole thing."
Some fans said they thought Mularkey deserved more time, but most said it was time to clean house.
"In the business world, if you don't produce, you're out of there," Terrill said. "I don't see any difference in the sports world, especially when the head coach doesn't have anything to fall back on. I mean, if we had Bill Cowher, he's proven himself. Mularkey, what has he done? Nothing."
Potential replacements for Mularkey include former Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith, Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator Bruce Arians and San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman.
Roman's name has been linked to the Jaguars since Caldwell became the leading candidate to replace Smith.
Roman and Caldwell were teammates and roommates in the 1990s while attending John Carroll University.

James Ashby's solicitor Michael Harmer is seeking leave to appeal the dismissal of the Peter Slipper sexual harassment case, claiming it made "serious adverse findings" against him personally.
Mr Harmer was not a party to the proceedings against the former federal Speaker but he lodged the application on the grounds it contained "serious adverse findings impacting upon (his) professional reputation and standing", documents filed in the Federal Court on Monday said.
Justice Steven Rares dismissed Mr Ashby's sexual harassment case against Mr Slipper in December, saying the purpose of the case had been to "pursue a political attack against Mr Slipper".
In a scathing judgment, Justice Rares found Mr Ashby and Mr Harmer had included allegations in the originating claim that Mr Slipper misused cab vouchers "for the purpose of injuring Mr Slipper and for no legitimate forensic purpose".
In his application, Mr Harmer submitted Justice Rares erred in finding the case was brought for the predominant purpose of pursuing a political attack against Mr Slipper.
He submitted the judgment contained "unchallenged evidence" that the judge drew inferences about him in the absence of or contrary to the evidence, and that his ability to give evidence was limited by his professional obligations.
"(The judgment) has exposed Mr Harmer to the potential of professional disciplinary action," the application said.
Mr Harmer submitted the appeal raised "important questions" as to how dismissal applications are assessed and the obligations of solicitors when filing originating applications in court.
He requested his leave to appeal application be joined to Mr Ashby's, which was filed last Friday.
A directions hearing for both matters will be held on February 6.

|FYI — November 2004
|By Brad Dunn
Septic Shower
In August more than 100 people had to be disinfected—some were even taken to a hospital—after they were soaked with septic drainage from the Dave Matthews Band tour bus as it crossed over the Chicago River. Because they were massed on the boat's top deck, most of the passengers were infected, including "senior citizens, a pregnant woman, a small child, and an infant," according to the suit. After the 80 to 100 gallons of human waste bombarded the sightseers, some of whom were hit in open eyes and mouths, the tour-boat captain quickly returned to the dock.
State prosecutors fined the band $70,000, claiming its bus driver deliberately emptied the septic tank on the steel-grated bridge. Though the band initially denied the charges, the musicians later offered to provide DNA samples so detectives could verify the source of the sewage. "We care deeply about what happened to the people on the boat that day, which was terrible, and the damage that occurred to Chicago's environment," the band stated in a letter to the public.
For recreational boaters, who tend to be the usual suspects of marine pollution, the incident underscores those often-overlooked contaminators of water: automobiles. "It's ironic that boaters are the focus of waste-discharge regulations, and in this case they were the victims of it—and from a bus, no less," says Mary Lou Livingood, a director at the National Clean Boating Campaign in Washington. "I certainly hope this isn't a regular occurrence that we never hear about," she continues. "Either way, I think the Department of Transportation should look at it more closely."
None of the tourists was seriously injured. Regardless, all were refunded the $26 they paid for the tour.

Only a handful of suburbs in Melbourne and fewer than 50 in Sydney are cheaper for aspiring owners to buy a home in than to rent.
In Melbourne, only six suburbs were more affordable to buy than rent and in Sydney, only 48 fit the bill.
But in other parts of the country the recent fall in interest rates and stable house prices has boosted the number of suburbs and country towns where it is cheaper to buy than rent.
In October there were 388 localities, this month there were 494, according to RP Data's latest Buy vs. Rent report.
And if prospective home owners were willing to chip in another $50 per week, that number rose to 1726 localities, the report said.
A sharp rise in house prices over the past decade coupled with slower rental growth has resulted in far fewer suburbs in Australia's largest capital cities being cheaper to buy in than rent, researcher Tim Lawless said.
''If you start factoring in your buying costs, stamp duty, convencing, pest and building inspections it starts to make the equation look much less appealing,'' he said.
The analysis compared a suburb's median weekly rent over the past year with the cost of monthly repayments on a variable 30-year mortgage where the loan-to-value ratio was 90 per cent and interest rate 5.65 per cent.
It did not factor in other costs associated with buying a property or take into consideration capital gains over time.
Brisbane had 58 suburbs where it was cheaper to buy than rent.
''Nationally, regional areas dominate the list with 310 suburbs outside of the capital cities showing better payments schedule for buying compared with renting,'' the report said.
In the capital cities, the type of housing - apartments - made suburbs more affordable.
''That's a trend across most of the cities. Typically units as opposed to detached houses are more aligned to paying off a mortgage being cheaper than renting,'' Mr Lawless said.
The full list can be accessed here. (RP Data will ask you for your email address.)

This knot was discovered in the Lawn Care industry of western Pennsylvania for securing equipment on a trailer. The knot is comprised of three inter-locking loops to tighten the slack out of the line and two slip knots (know as the double back rocket) securing the locked loops. This is a very secure, but easy knot to untie when access to the secured object is needed frequently.
We have a long ride from Moon to the Rochester Beaver run, you better tie the Triple Lock-Knot Double Back Rocket to secure the walk behinds.

Inspector Chris Cham-mings is overseeing policing in Trowbridge and Bradford on Avon, replacing Inspector Lisette Harvey.
Insp Chammings, 45, joined the force in 1991 and will be based at Trowbridge Police Station where he has been getting to know his new team this week.
He comes from a post at Wiltshire Police Headquar-ters in Devizes.
Insp Chammings has previously worked as a firearms officer in a counter terrorism team, and has recently finished working on collaboration plans between Wiltshire, Avon and Somerset and Gloucester forces.
He said: "Having been out of local policing for 15 years it is great to get back to the grassroots. I'm looking forward to building relationships with the community.
"I want to build on all the work that Lisette has done and bring my expertise to the role."
Insp Harvey will be working with Superinten-dent Nick John, planning police strategies in Trow-bridge, Bradford on Avon, Melksham, Chippenham and Devizes.
She said: "I will miss the team as they have worked tirelessly for me over the last two years."
Her proudest achievement during her time based in Trowbridge was reducing alcohol related crime in the town centre, she added, saying: "I think we've broken the perception that Trow- bridge is an unsafe place to visit. I'd like to thank the community for their support towards me and my team. I wish Chris all the best in his new role."

23 March 2012 • On-campus Event
The St. Vladimir's Seminary community was immersed this past Friday in the poetic splendor of Byzantine psaltic art, as part of an evening in which the Axion Estin Foundation [2](AEF) honored our school. Chapel services were sung in traditional Byzantine style, and at a reception following, the foundation presented the seminary with a much-needed contribution to its Byzantine music collection. AEF's mission is to identify opportunities to introduce Byzantine Music content into academic curricula in the United States. St. Vladimir's began to dialogue with the foundation in 2010, and since that time has taken full advantage of AEF's generous and helpful offerings.
On Friday, renowned chanter Christos Chalkias led the singing of the "Akathist Hymn." Mr. Chalkias was visiting New York as the featured artist in a program titled "Christos Chalkias Chant and Oud Performance," [3] which was co-presented by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and AEF, as part of the museum's "Byzantine and Islam: A Festival for All Ages" exhibition. Presiding priests at the service included seminary faculty members Archpriest Alexander Rentel [4], Assistant Professor of Canon Law and Byzantine Studies, and Archpriest Harry Pappas [5], Adjunct Professor of Pastoral Theology; and visiting Priest Nicholas G. Anctil, rector of Holy Trinity Church in New Rochelle, New York, where AEF originated. [6]
At the reception following the service, Mr. Nicholas Kyriakos presented the seminary with 20-volume English-language translation of the "Great Theory of Music," by Chrysanthos of Madytos (1770–1846). The work contains simplified Byzantine notation and is the most referenced source in Byzantine music education. The volumes were funded by The Rev. Peter N. Kyriakos Endowment Fund and published by AEF (2010); Mr. Nicholas Kyriakos is the son of the late Fr. Peter Kyriakos.
"Our family was proud to support the publication of this work in my father's memory," said Mr. Kyriakos. "We hope it will be of great use in the education of your students."

It isent really 4g it's hspra something like that. It's like 3G and 1/2 not real 4g.

The AT&T network is running HSPDA+ which some people consider 4G as it's faster than 3G CDMA. So AT&T is confusing people by changing their data icon.
3. Re: iOS 5.1 and 4G for VZW?Jax_Omen Mar 22, 2012 10:30 AM (in response to wushu2004)
Not only that, but the AT&T iPhone was connecting to the same network prior to the update that it was after the update.
LITERALLY the only difference between 5.0 and 5.1, regarding the network, is whether they call it "3g" or "4g". It's the same speeds. Apple could lie to you and put a 4g icon on your VzW iPhone too, but it wouldn't make it any faster than it already is. Same as the AT&T change. Pure marketing, nothing more.

University of Phoenix has announced that it will offer 70 scholarships to recent community college graduates looking to continue their education. Recipients of each $3,000 scholarship will have the opportunity to complete a bachelor's degree program at a University of Phoenix location, or online via the University's eCampus.
The seventy partial-tuition scholarships are available for qualified individuals who completed an associate's degree from an accredited community college within the past three years, with a minimum GPA of 2.75. Recipients will be selected based on a completed application and submitted essays by the scholarship selection committee made up of representatives from University of Phoenix. Deadline for applications is June, 26, 2012.
"Community college students share much in common with University of Phoenix students and alumni: they are acquiring the skills to better compete in a global workforce," said Tammie Yong, Director of Scholarships, University of Phoenix. "Some of our students best prepared to complete their degree programs are the ones who transfer from community colleges so we are especially passionate about providing these types of scholarship opportunities."
In addition to offering scholarships, University of Phoenix works with community colleges to build educational partnerships that bring in area business, academic and diversity leaders. Through its Community College Center of Excellence, the University partners with community colleges to develop focused curriculum and specific career pathways to meet those area workforce skills gaps.

Former Brentford striker Marvin Williams has signed for Sutton United after impressing manager Paul Doswell with a hat-trick while playing against his new boss.
The 25-year-old banged in three against United while playing for Salisbury at the end of last season.
Williams joined Blue Square South rivals Eastleigh over the summer but has only turned out eight times for the team from the south coast.
The striker, who has spent time playing for Ostersunds FK in Sweden, made 51 appearances for Millwall scoring seven goals, as well as 34 appearances in a Bees shirt.
Doswell said: ""I've been watching Marvin for some time, and we moved quickly when he became available.
"He is quick, can play down the middle or wide, and knows where the goal is and will increase the competition amongst our strikers."
First team coach Steve McKimm said: "He scored a hat-trick against us and I know Paul [Doswell] was impressed.
"We're hoping he will add to our strikeforce, not take it over. Our lads have not been getting the run of the green in recent games so hopefully Marvin's experience can take them up a level."
Williams trains with Sutton for the first time tomorrow (Friday) and will be available for the Blue Square South trip to Truro City.

Hefty fines await offending swimmersSamantha Lane
Published: February 20 2013 - 3:00AM
TWO disturbing reports into a dysfunctional Olympic swimming team devoid of leadership in London last year will lead to athletes who are found guilty of abusing prescription drugs and bullying being exposed and hit with significant fines.
Deeply troubled by an independent culture and leadership probe that revealed that multiple ''culturally toxic incidents'' occurred within the national swimming team last July, the Australian Olympic Committee is intent on acting over flagrant breaches of the team agreement.
Central to the case is the flouting of the AOC's controversial pre-Olympics ban on Stilnox, a sedative and hallucinogen prescribed to treat insomnia but a drug that is also misused recreationally.
While a culture and leadership review prepared by Dr Pippa Grange for Swimming Australia did not identify swimmers or detail their indiscretions, the government-funded sporting federation - now under new leadership and on notice after a disastrous London Games in and out of the pool - has vowed to identify and punish those at fault.
The AOC says it will recoup the money paid to any swimmer who won medals in London and is found guilty of breaching the team agreement. It will also impose financial sanctions on others who might not have won a medal. Gold medallists at the London Games earned $20,000 under an AOC incentive scheme, silver medallists were paid $13,400 and bronze medallists $10,000.
National Olympic president John Coates said on Tuesday he would await the results of further investigation by Swimming Australia before determining any fines.
A disappointed Nick Green, who made his debut as Australian chef de mission in London, told Fairfax Media he had no inkling of the swimmers' delinquency last July.
An abridged version of Grange's report released on Tuesday revealed ''there were enough culturally toxic incidents across enough team members that breached agreements (such as getting drunk, misuse of prescription drugs, breaching curfews, deceit, bullying) to warrant a strong, collective leadership response that included coaches, staff and the swimmers''.
Grange said ''no such collective action was taken'' - a damning finding against swimming bosses that Green found wholly unsatisfactory.
While Grange reported that ''few situations (in London) … were truly grave in nature, they compounded in significance as no one reined in control''. A trained psychologist who has worked with numerous AFL clubs and sporting organisations, Grange conducted 57 recorded interviews with Olympic swimmers and Australian team support staff on the basis of anonymity, meaning she cannot inform Swimming Australia about the specifics of the most serious allegations.
''The possible misuse of prescription drugs, we take that very seriously and we are surprised at that - significantly surprised - because it is a breach of a team agreement that the athletes sign,'' Green said.
Australian Olympians are expected to abide by the team agreement on their pre-Olympics camps, during the Games and on their way home.
Swimming Australia is understood to be well aware that Australian swimmers used Stilnox, despite the AOC ban on the drug, and reports of a drunken ''bonding'' session of the much-vaunted men's 4 x 100 metres freestyle relay team on a pre-Games camp in Manchester have been confirmed. The night led to pranks that upset coaches and other swimmers before the relay team, featuring James Magnussen and Eamon Sullivan, failed to win a medal in one of the shocks at the Games.
Grange's report found bad behaviour went unchecked, individualism thrived, and London was remembered by many as the unpleasant ''Lonely Olympics''.
''At its least attractive, the team dynamic became like a schoolyard clamour for attention and influence,'' the report says.
In the pursuit of gold medals in London, Grange surmised that ''the 'science' of winning appeared to whitewash the 'art' of leadership''; an assessment that inevitably implicates head coach Leigh Nugent.
No sports psychologist was assigned to the team, a fact many swimmers have since decried.
Australian Sports Commission chief executive Simon Hollingsworth put Swimming Australia, which received $11,747,147 from the ASC for the 2011-12 financial year, on notice after the release of two highly unflattering appraisals - the ASC conducted its own independent probe, which was also released on Tuesday.
"The Australian Sports Commission board meets to consider the recommendations and Swimming Australia's response to them and then view an opinion about the adequacy or otherwise of the response when considering funding,'' he said.
"I would say there are a number of things in the Independent Swimming Review report about governance and administration of the sport and we would expect to see progress in those areas."
The Australian Olympic Committee team agreement, which was signed by all national representatives before the London Olympics, references bullying explicitly in the ethical behaviour by-law.

Imaginary Music
When I was in elementary school I was obsessed with Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition. It was the first piece of classical music I fell in love with. I first encountered it in Ravel's orchestral version, as I think most people do, and was astounded to learn, years later, that it had been originally composed for piano solo. I borrowed the music from my piano teacher and tried to learn to play it in high school, despite the fact that it was far beyond my technical abilities at the time, an adventure which ended when I tripped and slid while running while carrying the score, tearing holes in both the score and the skin of my hands. I bought a replacement score to give back to my teacher, which turned out to be a piano reduction of the orchestra version (!), but which my teacher graciously accepted anyway.
And then many years later, I discovered a version of Pictures for—solo guitar. That blew my mind. Playing what, to me, was still at bottom an orchestral piece on the piano was weird enough—but guitar? There are only six strings! How was that even possible?
Here in the age of YouTube, that question is easily answered:
But now I'm more interested in the ways that the "real" versions of music shadow the other versions that so many of us make or listen to. I've been thinking about this because of my new job at Pace University, as a staff accompanist/coach in their Musical Theatre Department. The students I'm working with are practicing musical theatre literature; but instead of a pit orchestra, they have me. And I'm not even playing a piano, but an electronic keyboard; a pretend piano, if you will.
Musical theatre accompanists are different from classical accompanists in that we often make up large chunks of our accompaniments on the fly, adapting them from what's on the page; but any pianist playing a reduction is in the same boat. You're pretending to be a whole orchestra (or band). What a strange thing, to be pretending while you're making music. The singers or instrumentalists we're playing with are pretending too, maybe even more than we are; and that strikes me as even stranger.
Whether you hear the "original" version somehow behind or in-between the pretend version depends on how well you know each version. When I first heard the guitar version of Pictures at an Exhibition, every moment was a comparison, since I had long since memorized the orchestral version. I still can't quite listen to the guitar version on its own terms. There are a lot of musical theatre songs that I learned from playing auditions—or, in the case of songs from shows my parents didn't own the cast albums to, from the piano/vocal arrangements in Broadway songbooks. To me, those piano versions are the original versions, so when I run across an orchestrated version of one of them, as happens from time to time, that's a shock.
Things are even weirder in the pop world, where bands cover other people's songs all the time. There's a Beatles cover band called The Butties ("together 4 times longer than the Beatles themselves") that I once heard play a Beatles tune that I'd somehow never encountered before. That was disorienting. And I listened to Jonathan Coulton's version of "Baby Got Back" before I heard the original. (I know, I know; I live under a rock.)
I keep hearing it said that all music is in dialogue with other music; I always imagine stately halls where the pieces (wearing robes and sandals) talk to each other in hushed and dignified tones. But all that dialogue really takes place in people's heads, which means very little of it is hushed or dignified, and there are as many dialogues as there are people. And if every piece of music other pieces of music looking over its shoulder and breathing down its neck, then maybe all music is pretend music to some extent.
You'll excuse me. I have to go play some show tunes on an electronic keyboard now.

Michelle and Rory, Sitting in a Library
When Barack and Michelle Obama became the most media savvy and best-dressed First Couple in our collective memories, we all nodded, sage. It made sense.

Gilmore Bait...and switch?

How to Post Grad
Gilmore Girls + Friday Night Lights… I was never hooked on Rory and Lorelei. But I am terribly, terribly fond of Alexis Bledel. As you know, I'm also balls crazy about Friday Night Lights. Friday Night Lights actors are almost always ignored. So how about some love for Zach Gilford and his co-star Alexis Bledel at Teen Choice last night to promote Post Grad? It doesn't look super original. Full Story
3 Sisters and a Dull
Am very fond of the word "dull". Reminds me of my mother. One day last year in Toronto, my parents picked us up at the station. We were in the back seat. My husband asked her something trivial – like how her opera class went or something. Her answer, always animated: Is dow! Is dow! So dow! Jacek looked at me like, ok whatever, did she forget I don't speak Chinese? When he wasn't responding to her, she turned around in her seat and kept shouting it at him: So dow! Ah so dow! I was, at this point, killing myself and very unhelpful. Full Story
Dinner with the family
Hayden Panettiere had dinner with her brother, her mother, and her boyfriend Milo Ventimiglia last night. Very cozy. And creepy. Like…it's legal now and all but if JailBait Miley Cyrus's 20 year old boyfriend is a loser for dating 15 year old who just turned 16, what does that say about Milo and Hayden's 31 and 18? Anyway, photographers were quick to point out that Hayden's dad was not with the family, this of course after the beat-down scandal after which Hayden and her mom downplayed the incident, blaming the cops for overreacting. Full Story
Before Hayden…
There was Alexis. Alexis and Milo Ventimiglia, remember? Many of you feel about Gilmore Girls the way I feel about Friday Night Lights. Including my friend Duana. I think she still has episodes of it on her PVR. And even though I was too late to the bandwagon, I can understand the devotion to a beautifully written, underrated underdog and, by extension, the actors you grow to love on those shows.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The first of 109 homicides recorded in Jacksonville in 2012 was a murder at a nightclub called "Club Chicago" in the Grand Park area in the early morning of New Year's Day.
"There's shooting, there's still violence, that's about all, but no murders," said Thompson.
People who are familiar with the area, like Ronald Thompson, believe the Grand Park community is still unsafe even after two men accused in the New Year's Day murder were arrested and zoning in the area was changed in an effort to deter businesses from setting up shop in the middle of a neighborhood.
"When we talk about crime in a neighborhood, we have to address it with enforcement, prevention and intervention, and enforcement includes zoning sometimes, and it this case, we felt we could address it with zoning and we did," said Jacksonville City Councilman Warren Jones.
"They ain't been back there now in a year, but they just have a lot of drunks parking around here and stuff like that," said Thompson.
Channel 4 Crime Analyst Ken Jefferson believes crime remains a problem in the Grand Park area. Jefferson said that communities across Jacksonville need to deal with the problem to decrease the number of murders in Jacksonville.
"Open areas where murders occur, we've got to look at it, we can't just sit back and say, this happened, and let's patrol it for a couple of days and let's move on," said Jefferson.

Exporting Data to TomToms
People who go geocaching with TomToms (or more likely driving to them, as the TomTom software isn't really great for geocaching itself, but for driving it's fantastic), there is special support for creating TomTom .ov2 files. The result is maps that tell you exactly what is around you:
The symbols created are color coded according to difficulty (rainbow order from red to purple) and the traditional caches are broken down by size. The resulting symbol set is shown below:
|1 <- Difficulty - -> 5
Creating the Data Files
From the main Graphical User Interface (GUI) menu, use the "export" button:
From there, select the "tomtom database files" option
The next screen will let you select the caches you wish to export (as well as some other transformation options). When you click on next it'll create a bunch of files that should be copied to your TomTom data card into the map directory. You'll also need the .bmp files that come with the GeoQO software.
(future work: help you install these ;-)

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/11/2011 (2093 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
King Solomon had, according to reliable reports such as the Bible, about 700 wives and 300 concubines as well as assorted paramours, including the Queen of Sheba.
He was also notoriously wise. We all know the story of the disputed baby and his decision that the child should be cut in half and each half given to one of the disputant mothers, a wise but otherwise ugly decision that had a fortunate outcome -- the true mother offered to forfeit her claim to her child rather than see it killed and Solomon awarded sole custody of the kid to her.
The wisdom of Solomon has endured as a cliché for good government for more than 3,000 years, and for good reason -- anyone who can run a household of 700 wives and a bevy of other beauties is clearly equipped to keep a little thing like the kingdom of Israel in order.
Fortunately for Solomon, he did not live in 21st-century Canada, where his grey cells of wisdom would only be of use in the grey cells of the Canadian prison system, into which, according -- dare we say it -- to a somewhat dubious decision by a British Columbia Supreme Court judge would put him.
The 700 wives just by themselves would be enough to do him in under the Canadian Constitution, says Judge Robert Bauman in an unwise and ethically ugly ruling released this week that effectively said the state has any and every right to interfere in the bedrooms of the nations, contradicting what former prime minister Pierre Trudeau said when his government legalized homosexual activity between consenting adults in the 1970s.
Since then, all sorts of sexual activities have become legal where once they were forbidden. Homosexuals, for example, can now legally marry; not only can they legally marry, but it has become illegal for a marriage commissioner to refuse to marry them because he conscientiously objects to same-sex marriage.
And so the world turns, but it turns in a way that would set old Solomon on his ear if he were still around to witness it.
One would think we would have learned the lesson by now that the state really does not have a place in the bedrooms of the nation. Gay marriage? Go for it. Living in what used to be called sin, cohabiting without the blessing of clergy? Enjoy it while you can, because the state, as Judge Bauman's ruling makes clear, will intrude into your bedroom as often as it can and still remain politically popular.
Homosexual marriage is a dead issue now. Most of us don't care how other people live their lives as long as they are happy with and decent to each other. You might get the occasional argument -- and it is a legitimate one -- that marriage should be left to churches, which can marry whom they please, and other unions should be the responsibility of civic governments, which, after all, are the only authority that practically matters in such occasions. Follow the money is the bottom line in any sexual relationship.
So why, then, are the courts suddenly interested in polygamy? Why does the government care if a man wants two willing wives or a woman seeks three eager husbands?
Monogamy is not a new issue, of course. Even in Solomon's era, his own Bible forbade him from marrying more than one girl at a time -- let alone 700, not counting the extras -- and marriage as a solitary sin has been advocated by almost every Christian society and even the pagan Greeks and Romans, going back as far as the 7th century B.C.
But, you say in your 21st-century non-sectarian secularism, so what? So what if ancient Jews didn't always do what their Bible told them, so what if ancient heathens couldn't handle more than one spouse at a time? What about all those other cultures that quite happily practise polygamy and are now living in Canada. Don't they get a say in a Canadian court?
Well, they do get a say and that say is answered by "nay" in Judge Bauman's court at least. This is a decision that needs to be taken to the Supreme Court of Canada, and if Canada's Constitution means anything, the high court will overturn this bit of wrong-headedness and rule that Canadians have every right to marry multiple spouses, and polygamy is as equally acceptable as homosexual or common-law unions.
It will recognize that Canada is not governed by biblical law, that it is a truly multicultural country where Judeo-Christian prejudices do not take precedence over other cultures' prejudices. It is a country where anyone who is dumb enough to seek and unlucky enough to persuade several spouses to marry him or her is free to do so. I can't imagine why anyone would want to do that, but in my Canada, as long as there are laws to protect minors and other innocents from abuse, as there are, it is not my government's business to tell me how I should live this particularly personal part of my life.
You don't need to be Solomon to understand the sense of that. Get out of my bedroom.

my query
SELECT 1 as stats_type_id, domain_id, DATE (access_start_datetime) as date, COUNT (id) as valueFROM si_stats_accessGROUP BY domain_id, DATE(access_start_datetime);
it doesn't work I get only a domain id
as usual can you help me please ?
could you elaborate on this a bit please
what does "it doesn't work" mean?
for example instead of1 1 2013-03-11 1001 2 2013-03-11 1001 3 2013-03-11 100I got1 1 2013-03-11 100I got only the rows for a domain
btw this seems to work but I don't see the pointSELECT 1 AS stats_type_id, domain_id, DATE( access_start_datetime ) AS DATE, COUNT( id ) AS valueFROM si_stats_accessGROUP BY DATE( access_start_datetime ) , domain_id
i'm sorry, i can't understand this -- the 2nd column here is your domain, and it would not have completely dropped domains 2 and 3, since domain is in the GROUP BY
by the way, the rows that a GROUP BY query produces are ~not~ the same as the rows in the table
this is exactly the same as the other query, just with the order of the GROUP BY columns reversed, which makes no difference to the actual results produced... except that they might be presented in a different order
Sorry buddy it's my fault the query I postedwas to build a view and I query the viewwith phpmyadmin that don't display all therows ^^

I liked the First-Year Seminar, "The Examined Life" with Robert Lair. I like writing and we did a lot of papers in the class, read a lot of books that relate to our lives, and looked at our lives, which is really cool and interesting.
Professor of Economics Reza Ramazani is a great guy. He is tough but cares about the students a lot. He is willing to go out of his way and really help students any way he can.
The upstairs of the library, in the room overlooking the campus at night, sitting in one of the comfy couches. Off campus, I really love downtown. I usually get on the bus, which is lot of fun, and then we walk to the waterfront.
That people really care about what you have to say. You're not just a number; people are supportive of what you want to do.
I helped with MOVE's Senior Citizen prom, which I really enjoyed. I'm trying to work with the Founder's Society, because I really like working with incoming students.
I want to be either a journalist or an event planner.
I went on a LEAP retreat and that was really special; I'll always remember the people I met on it. You're mixed in with all different class years that you don't always get to know.
Making other people happy really makes me happy. I get a lot of enjoyment out of doing things for other people. And just to enjoy life and look around at the beauty of it all makes me happy too.

A little bit of give and take and a lot of luck.
That's the secret to a happy marriage according to one Winchester couple who have celebrated 70 years together.
And despite jointly running a business until their retirement, Jim and Joan White, who have lived in Alresford since their wedding day on April 22 1944, said not a day has gone by where they didn't want to be around each other.
Jim, 91, said: "We worked together when we started up the fencing business, White and Etherington, and we just got on really well."
The couple, who have lived at their home in Jacklyns Lane for most of their marriage, have two sons, Michael and Christopher, four grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
Joan, 95, was working in the women's land army when she met Jim, who has working in the navy during World War Two.
Jim had trained as a joiner at school and worked as an apprentice at Fairheads before he was stationed in Scotland for active service.
"I came down from Greenock to get married and we had three days at my sister's bungalow in Nicholson Place for our honeymoon," he said. "Our first house was at Brandy Mount, the houses were basically slums, but they were some of the happiest days of our life."
Joan said: "We have been ever so lucky that we have got on and we have got our two boys and our grandchildren and our great-grandchildren. We're just happy and we have always liked being around each other all the time."
Jim added: "I ought to have had a medal for 70 years in service!"

A couple of weeks ago the grocery store had back ribs on sale so I picked up a rack to go with the rack I had in the freezer, and we ate them on the 4th of July.
Ironically, I chose Malaysian paste and Spanish rub for the seasonings.
I prepped them the night before. The Malaysian paste is extremely fragrant and really stunk up the fridge!
They cooked over briquettes and apple chunks on my WSM for about 4-1/2 hours at around 250-275 grate temperature and I used the exposed bone test to decide when they were done.
Both versions had some good smoke. The ribs with the Spanish rub had a more straightforward salt-pepper-spice flavor while the Malaysian ribs were a little more exotic from the ginger and other regional flavors, and they also had a little more heat. The family preferred the Spanish ribs but I was pleased with the overall results.

A Republican lawmaker from one of Colorado's most conservative counties voted Thursday to support civil unions, the latest signal that attitudes toward gays have changed drastically in recent years.
Rep. Carole Murray of Castle Rock said some might be surprised that a politician with a voting record that she said has been described as "to the right of Attila the Hun" would support such a measure.
"There's not a gun that I don't love, but I believe our party is the party of independent thinkers, and I'm one of them," she said.
Murray joined with the seven Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee to pass Senate Bill 11, which gives gay couples many but not all of the rights and responsibilities of marriage. The other three Republicans on the committee voted "no."
The measure next week goes to the finance and appropriations committees, and will be debated on the House floor the week of March 11.
An emotional Murray said she spoke to only a few family members and friends about her decision, and they advised her to vote "no" as the bill was going to pass anyway. Democrats won back the majority in November and control the House 37-28.
But Murray, the former Douglas County clerk and recorder, said she wanted to be able to look back on her years of public service and know that she has been true to her upbringing in a devout Catholic family.
"It's not for me to judge others but to leave that up to God," she said. "While on earth, Jesus asked us to love one another."
As for any political fallout, Murray didn't sound worried, noting she had heard others say they had a life before politics and they would have one after.
That was a line often repeated last year by Rep. B.J. Nikkel of Loveland, who infuriated fellow Republicans when she supported the civil-unions bill in Judiciary. Nikkel's vote — at a time when Republicans controlled the House — was crucial to keeping the bill alive.
Murray did say she is concerned that this year's bill does not provide religious exemptions for adoptions and such.
That provision in the bill prompted Republican Colorado Attorney General John Suthers to testify for the first time on civil unions.
Suthers stressed he wasn't speaking as an office holder but as a Coloradan, a Roman Catholic and, "most importantly," as someone who was adopted through Catholic Charities as an infant.
"If Senate Bill 11 passes and becomes law," he said, "Catholic Charities and some other religiously affiliated social service agencies will no longer be in the adoption business in Colorado."
This was the third time in three years the committee has heard a version of the bill, but much has changed for sponsor Mark Ferrandino. Ferrandino is now the House speaker and he and his partner are foster parents to a 14-month-old girl.
"This legislation won't change my relationship with Greg, but it will provide the needed protections for our precious daughter, Lila," Ferrandino said in his opening remarks.
Also presenting the bill with Ferrandino was another gay lawmaker, Rep. Sue Schafer, D-Wheat Ridge.
"I think we are living history," she said.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 28/3/2013 (1606 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Loreena McKennitt, the Morden-born soprano, will perform her Celtic repertoire when she returns to the Centennial Concert Hall on Aug. 9, the Winnipeg Folk Festival announced today.
Tickets go on sale Saturday at 10 a.m. at all Ticketmaster outlets. Advance tickets are $65 and $50, plus fees.
McKennitt, who released her first record in 1985, is touted as one of the world's most successful independent artists due to retaining control of her music and her record label. She has sold 14 million records, has written film and television scores and created three concert DVDs. Her records have reflected both her adventures around the world, and her ongoing search for the roots of Celtic music.
In February, the Order of Canada member was up for a Grammy Award in the new age album category for her live recording Troubadours on The Rhine.
In addition, she received the folk festival's Artistic Achievement Award in 2004 and is the artistic chair of the festival's Staging the Future capital campaign.

Ed Miliband is set to give a speech on Saturday proposing an end to Labour's two-yearly shadow cabinet elections. The move may antagonise some of his frontbenchers but will be welcomed elsewhere; the system did seem like a bit of an anachronism.
It also cements Ed Miliband's power base. Any challenge to his authority can now be nipped in the bud; he also has greater power of patronage over any young up-coming – and most importantly, loyal – MP who catches his eye.
Aides say that this is not the prelude to a "night of the long knives" reshuffle by Miliband, who moved swiftly to get rid of Nick Brown last autumn as chief whip. There won't be a reshuffle this summer or around conference time, they insist.
Here is a link to our full story on ft.com. And here is Miliband's letter to his MPs.
Incidentally, David Miliband gave a private speech yesterday for a
charity (UPDATE: sorry, fund-raising) event at a hotel in Bloomsbury. He doesn't seem to be a fan of the shadow cabinet elections (which he didn't enter) either; he said it was a great shame that the talented Pat McFadden hadn't made it in. Hard to disagree.
FURTHER UPDATE: (Friday morning). Yes, David Miliband has publically endorsed the move as a good idea.
Ed Miliband will announce his proposal at the national policy forum in Wrexham Read more

Back in the time of Companions, idolaters used to bully Companions. They used to say; "we will hang you, we will chop you up." And the Companions said; "Bring it on." What can you do? Only what Almighty God has ordained in destiny would happen. Who makes you say that? God is the One Who makes you say that. A Companion's life would not end before his task is completed. They thought that they can kill them all, yet we saw that their lives have ended instead. They thought that they would take the lives of Companions, instead Almighty God took their own lives. They have turned into living dead people. God killed them while they are still standing. Many of the idolaters have died while they are still afoot. They go to martyr our Prophet (saas), instead God kills them while they are still walking on their way. They go there as empty flesh and bones, as a body without a mind. Even if they remain, they lose all their strength, because they would be left mindless. They are thus defeated, as God takes away their minds.
THERE ARE MANY WALKING DEAD AMONG PEOPLE. WHOEVER BECOMES HOSTILE TO GOD, WHOEVER BECOMES HOSTILE TO THE SAINTS OF GOD, GOD KILLS THEM WHILE THEY ARE STILL AFOOT. THEY DIE WHILE THEY ARE WALKING, WHILE THEY ARE EATING. YOU MIGHT THINK THAT THEY ARE ALIVE, BUT THEY ARE DEAD. THEY WOULDN'T EVEN BE AWARE THAT THEY ARE DEAD. THEIR FAMILIES WOULDN'T BE AWARE THAT THEY ARE DEAD. GOD TOSSES THEM RIGHT INTO THE HELL ALL OF A SUDDEN. I mean God takes life out of the back of their necks and toss them right into the hell all of a sudden. But their body might still remain here. You might think that they are walking about, that they are speaking. But their minds are taken. People would say; "the light of his face has gone, something is wrong with him." The fact is that person is dead. He would have a meaningless, empty gaze. Actually that means that person is dead.2013-06-28 20:53:30

National Review Downplays Ryan-Akin Radicalism on "Personhood" and Abortion
Blog ››› ››› SERGIO MUNOZ
The National Review has attempted to distract from Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-WI) and Rep. Todd Akin's (R-MO) support of the extreme "Sanctity of Human Life Act" -- legislation that equates abortion and contraception to murder -- by neglecting to mention its relevance to Akin's rape comments and falsely asserting potential bans on abortion aren't a concern. But it is the act's radical redefinition of a fertilized egg as a person that Akin was defending with his imaginary claim that "legitimate rape" does not lead to pregnancy, and the fact that voters in conservative states have rejected similar "personhood" laws merely demonstrates how far outside the mainstream Ryan and Akin are.
In their move to distance conservative media from Akin's comments, the editors of the National Review called for Akin to withdraw his candidacy for the U.S. Senate. However, this calculated abandonment of Akin for announcing a right-wing view that the National Review acknowledges, but prefers kept under wraps, ignores the resurgent movement to criminalize all forms of abortion. By omitting the relevance of the Sanctity of Human Life Act to Akin's comments and the editorial's claim that "no state is going to ban abortion in the case of rape even if Roe v. Wade is overruled," the editorial is perpetuating frequent contributor Ramesh Ponnuru's attempts to gloss over Ryan and Akin's hostility to reproductive rights.
Indeed, the National Review's misdirection is even more apparent now that it appears the 2012 Republican platform will once again support a so-called "human life amendment" to the Constitution that would criminalize abortion in all circumstances. Furthermore, not only is the National Review's reassurance on state abortion bans irrelevant if reports on the GOP platform are accurate, it is wholly misrepresentative of recent state efforts to infringe on women's constitutional rights. In fact, conservative-leaning states have seen multiple attempts at "personhood" bills similar to Ryan and Akin's legislation. This fall, Colorado will likely again have a "personhood" ballot initiative presented to its voters, even though the unconstitutional measure just failed in Mississippi and was held "void on its face" in Oklahoma by the state Supreme Court.
Accordingly, it is unsurprising that Akin's apology for becoming "nationally notorious...for saying something stupid" was specifically only for the "words I said" in reference to rape and not for "the heart I hold," wherein presumably all abortion is criminalized pursuant to "personhood" legislation. A radical criminalization that, the National Review fails to mention, could also apply to in-vitro fertilization, stem-cell research, most forms of contraception, and even miscarriage.

Andrus, others return from World Baseball Classic
GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Elvis Andrus is on his way back to Arizona and has something waiting for him when he arrives.
One of his teammates posted a "Welcome Back Elvis" sign on his locker Sunday morning after the news that Venezuela had been knocked out in the first round of the World Basketball Classic.
"Elvis was talking garbage about who was going to come back first," manager Ron Washington said. "He told [Nelson] Cruz he would be the first one to come back. Now Elvis is coming back. They couldn't wait to get on Elvis. Somebody sent him a text message this morning. They told him he's got early work at 8:30 this morning."
Venezuela's final game was Sunday in Puerto Rico. Washington said he expects Andrus to report immediately back to Surprise.
"Why would you want to hang around Puerto Rico?" Washington asked. "If you just had your heart snatched out of you over something you really wanted, why would you want to hang around there?"
Spain and Mexico also failed to advance, so the Rangers will also get outfielder Engel Beltre and catcher Junior Felix back soon.
