A powerful committee of the House of Representatives wants answers about the computer failures and long wait times that greeted insurance shoppers seeking coverage under the 2010 health care law when the online exchanges launched Oct. 1.
A letter from Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.)., chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee, and 14 panel Republicans asks Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and the IT contractors responsible for the computer systems behind the health care exchanges that the law establishes to provide details on the testing of computer systems prior to the open enrollment date.
"Despite the widespread belief that the administration was not ready for the health law's Oct. 1 launch, top officials and lead IT contractors looked us in the eye and assured us all systems were a go. Instead, here we are 10 days later, and delays and technical failures have reached epidemic proportions," Upton said.
Executives at CGI Federal, which built the federally facilitated marketplace (FFM) that supports the purchase of insurance plans for the 36 states that don't have their own exchanges, and Quality Software Services Inc., which built the data hub that loops in federal databases to confirm eligibility, told Congress on Sept. 10 that their systems would be ready for the Oct. 1 open enrollment data.
The committee is seeking specific information on the testing and changes made to the FFM and data hub, and post-launch emails between contractors and HHS analyzing system flaws and discussing fixes.
Despite assurances from contractors and officials, there were signals that all was not well with the IT piece of the health insurance exchanges. "We are under 200 days from open enrollment and I'm pretty nervous," Henry Chao, deputy CIO of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, said at an insurance industry event in March. The most recent IT Dashboard information, current to the end of August, designates the FFM and data hub as medium-risk projects.
Users of HealthCare.gov continue to encounter problems creating accounts and shopping for insurance plans. Three-quarters of those who tried to use the online exchange encountered problems, according to an AP-GfK poll released Oct. 10. Seven percent of respondents said that they or a household member tried to sign up for health insurance. But just 40 percent of poll respondents said the opening of the insurance markets has gone poorly, despite a steady stream of media reports documenting the barrage of IT failures of Healthcare.gov that have thwarted enrollment. If the poll accurately reflects public opinion, the government might have a grace period to right the ship in time to attract the sought after 7 million enrollees by Dec. 15.
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), ranking member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, are also seeking information from Sebelius on enrollment numbers and software defects and details on who is responsible for introducing the defects and how they were identified and fixed. Issa and Alexander are also looking for an explanation of why the designers of the system failed to accurately project the demand for the service.
There's no word yet on the numbers of successful applicants. HHS has declined to publicize figures. On a "Daily Show" appearance, Sebelius told host Jon Stewart that the department didn't have numbers. Spokespeople have indicated that statistics would be released monthly, but not when the first release would be.

Just by reading FCW made it obvious that this program would be a disaster. But I already knew it would before that because of the way the entire bogus act was put together - as well as who was putting it together and who was administering it. The best that can be done now, probably obvious to most people, is to kill the entire program. Get the Government out of our health care which is really a personally issue handled far better by the choices provided by the private sector. Costs have been going up for decades primairly because of government interference. Creating ObamaCare was a sure guarantee that it would make the matter worse. Too bad that between liberal ignorance and lies along with far too many people on the dole that this diasterous program (for our heath care, freedoms, and the economy) was able to be created.
So the same people who have put up every possible roadblock to the success of ACA and want it to fail also want to beat on the implementers because opening day had problems. No wonder most Americans have such a low opinion of our legislative branch. Politics as usual in our nation's capitol.

Hi CC'ers,
Just needed to know when filling a cake with fruit filling do you first put a layer of the buttercream on the cake and then the fruit filling or do you just put the fruit filling on the layers just liek that?
Some put a crumb coat of buttercream, but I just do a dam of icing and fill with fruit filling.
For me it depends. When using jam, I like to spread it onto the cake first. It soaks into the cake a bit and colors it. When using a bonfide fruit filling, if you intend on using buttercream, the buttercream will need to go down first since it will be impossible to spread buttercream on top a loose filling.
I mix the filling into the butter cream to make what people often mistake for a fruit mousse. And I find it to be a little more stable/less slippery than jam or fruit filling alone.
Other than that, I either use just fruit filling, or just butter cream. I've never spread one on the other.
I sometimes mix it together. I also sometimes put a thin layer of buttercream and then another thin layet of filling. I've also done fruit filling alone with no problems.

According to someone apparently at Gallary Nucleus , they were able to get a bit of time aside with Mike and Bryan and were able to ask a few questions.
This interview explains that no, there is not a lost episode that "Remembrences" would have been, since the budget was cut early enough that they planned the season around 12 episodes. It also states that no plans for Korra comics are in motion yet, but that seeing Korra comics (covering topics such as the Red Lotus or Korrasami) are not impossible.
In addition, a lot of the Korra crew is working on something new, jokingly titled "Korra 2.0" (although it has no connection to the original series), and the staff on board does not include Mike or Bryan. Both of them have appeared to have started working on their own, separate individual projects elsewhere.

As per Sibal, the JEE exam will be conducted in 2 parts, Mains and Advanced. The Main exam will be an aptitude test and the advanced exam will test students knowledge about various subjects. The question paper will be prepared by the IIT and exam known as JEE will be introduced from the next academic year.
When this issue was slightly taken between the students of IIT-Delhi they disagreed with Sibal claiming that the new system will only burden on the students rather than keeping a check on coaching institutes. The students revealed that as per the new system class XII board marks will carry 40% weightage but those scoring less in class XII will have no options available. Moreover, the new exam format will cause more irregularities in class XII board exams.
While the state education ministers have jointly supported the proposal, Tamil Nadu has raised objections against it and Odisha, Himachal Pradesh, West Bengal and Puducherry have asked for more time to contemplate on the proposal.

Digging through old sketchbooks, I found some (solicited) advice on using a brush – specifically on cleaning a brush from Simon Fraser and Frazer Irving from May 2000. It was before my career as a comic artist and I felt sure I'd only get somewhere if I was using a brush.
The great thing is, unlike advice on digital drawing tools, this advice is NEVER out of date, so thought you might like to read it:
Simon Says
A good winsor & Newtown Series 7 Sable can last for years with constant use. Apparently some of the acrylic ones are as good now, but I like the sables.
- Never dip the brush all the way into the ink, only about half way up the bristles, this stops the ink going into the ferrule where it is hard to remove by cleaning. You can overload brushes for filling in large areas but use a different brush for this, noe you don't expect to come to a decent point.
- Rinse the brush thoroughly in a jam jar of tap wate/
- Twist it a bit on the edge to remove the water, if there is still ink coming out of it then keep rinsing until only water runs from the bristles.
- Gently dry the brush on a piece of cloth, shape it back to a point.
- Stick it in your mouth and use your tongue to bring the thing to a good point and your spit will protect it until the next time you use it.
THIS is why you don't use anyone else's brush!
Frazer had this to say
D'oh! NEVER use that eeeevil windsor + newton shit on the brush… it's WAY too thick with shellac for them, and should only be used with pens. I use Rowney Kandahar black indian ink, which is about as watery as I'm prepared to go… Also, if you use the brush mainly for spotting blacks and big lines, then the brush will clog quicker because it's always loaded… When I use that much ink I generally clean the brush afterwards to purify the ferrul. Also: what brush you using? Could be that the brush is shit also. A tip I got for cleaning brushes was to dab off the exceess ink BEFORE dunking in water (always cold) and I find sloshing around in a jar more effective than the tap. The soap I tried, but was too much hassle, and may even contribute to wear and tear. And the sucking… I (rather disgustingly so0 load the brush wid spit and then gently lick it to a point… A tiny point I know, but you gotta Lurve that brush…
In the past 16 years I've generally stuck with Winsor & Newtown ink-clearly completely ignoring Fraz's rather splendid advice.
That said, I've never done experimenting with traditional inks and you can now get all sorts of great manga focused inking tools from amazon – at the moment my preference is for Deleter Black ink (Number 4) which goes on Matt black and is pretty damn dark.
Anyways, apologies to Fraz and Si for digging up this old info (I'd printed it out from emails I think and cut it out and stuck it in a book that I was using to keep advice in – it has one page on Brush cleaning and… pretty much nothing else. C'est la vie.

iZettle and iPhone 5
5 oktober 2012
Lately we've been getting many questions about how iZettle will work on the iPhone 5. And we can tell you that until a few days ago, we were pretty curious too. Now a fully iPhone 5 compatible app is in the works and will be released on the App Store shortly. We're also happy to report that iZettle on iPhone 5 works splendidly with our audio jack reader (formerly known as the Android reader). It will probably also work with the current chip-card reader for iOS and Apple's Lightning adapter, but as the adapter hasn't been released yet, only time will tell. We'll get back to you all as soon as we know.
Happy zettling now, iPhone 5ers!

Lightbox form: is it possible to have it responsive?Asked by creativeservicesCRF on March 12, 2015 at 09:05 AM
when embed with lightbox option is chosen, is it possible to have it responsive?
I have set the width to fix on a mobile devices but on the desktop version it is small.
Kind regards
JotForm Support Manager
Yes, that is possible, so before grabbing the lightbox code, follow these steps:
Go to Preferences button.
On General Settings, set Responsive Form option to Yes. And that would be it!
If you are using our Designer tool because you wanted to add more styles to the form, and at the same time make your form responsive, then do it this way:
While on Edit mode, click the Designer
On Form Layout click on Make This Form Responsive
Otherwise, by setting the Responsive option to "yes" option in Preferences will be enough.
The form will be viewable on both mobile phones, pads and computers.
Wrong. DOES NOT WORK. Yes the form is responsive. BUT THE LIGHTBOX NEEDS TO BE RESPONSIVE!!!

I believe you also responded in this thread here:
And have already found a solution that works for you.

Rachel Maddow calls out the GOP on the attempted terrorist attack
1 comment:
- Stan in NH said...
Rachel is so awesome. I love her. I do think that Democrats should speak up and call the Repubs on their ridiculous actions. Aren't they being "un-American" in their actions and words against the country? Weren't Liberals called "un-American" for pointing out the hypocrisy of that idiot Bush and his minions when they were in charge? At least we have more substance that resorting to name calling, but we should call them on their actions.

|1,722 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
Situated in Son Fe in 7,000m2 of private land, Ca Na Marga is 10 minutes from Pollensa, Puerto Pollensa and Alcudia. It also forms the perfect base for travelling around the island, being only 45 minutes from Palma.
The Finca has been lovingly reformed by the owners, using excellent quality materials including Amtico flooring, excellent joinery work and high quality decoration. The main bathroom and en-suite are of exceptional quality, with large walk in showers, and an over sized bath and twin sinks to the main bathroom, all complemented with good quality towels.
The Finca is fully central heated and has a wood burning stove to the living room and an open log burning fire in the kitchen.
The kitchen is large and brand new. It is equipped with a dishwasher, washer/dryer, 4 ring hob with double oven, a large free standing fridge/freezer and microwave. The kitchen is also well equipped with utensils, juicer, coffee maker and blenders etc. The kitchen has patio doors leading onto a terrace with table and chairs.
The living room has patio doors leading directly onto a large decked alfresco dining area. Also in the living room is a TV with DVD player and satellite.
Upstairs comprises of one double bedroom and a large separate bedroom with twin beds that have pull-out beds underneath (the second bedroom can sleep 4 but the pull out beds are generally used for children). Both bedrooms are fitted with air-conditioning and windows with in-built mosquito nets.
Please Note: The ground floor bedroom has a high quality double bed settee. It has its own en-suite and although part of the living room, it is separated by a full length curtain and has total privacy.
The gardens are well maintained and have a range of fruit trees including figs, pomegranates, almonds, blackberries and some Mallorcan delights.
There is a fantastic private infinity pool (8m x 4m) with plenty of sun loungers, enjoying panoramic views of the mountains.
Located near the infinity pool, which is ideal for keeping your eye on the children playing is the raised BBQ area, set under a flower laden shady terrace with comfortable seating and relaxed lighting. The range type BBQ means cooking for a large family or group of families can be done with ease.
Separate shaded areas can be found amid the grassed lawns, for those wonderfully relaxing lazy days and the outside spaces around the villa add to its quality cosy interior. There is a large decked area with outside seating and parasol, which makes for fantastic alfresco dining as well as a separate seating area next to the pomegranate trees, perfect for a morning coffee and croissant.
There is a table tennis table which can be set up in numerous areas of the large gardens, where football, frisbee and other games can be enjoyed.
Privacy is paramount at Ca Na Marga and despite being close to all the towns, there is only one other villa situated next door.
The flowers are stunning in the summer, evenings are spent with only the chiming of the bells from the local convent and the bleating of the grazing mountain goats.
Whether you are looking for a totally relaxing holiday, a beach holiday, or a base to explore the island, this Finca is perfect, set in natural surroundings and close to all local amenities.
This villa is stunning. The pool was a god send in the hot weather. You definitely need a car with it being out in the sticks. Just wish it was closer to the town with me not driving over there. Would love to book again for a relaxing week. Love it!
Die Finca ist sehr schön am Rande des Tramuntana Gebirges gelegen. Für 2 Familien ist sie optimal aufgeteilt. Die überdachte Terrasse ist riesig gross. Zusätzlich lässt der große Pool keine Wünsche offen.
Wir waren alle begeistert und können die Finca uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen.
Where do I begin ??
This Villa was everything we could have wanted....and MORE !
Our party consisted of 5 adults between 19yrs old - 48 yrs old.
The location was beautiful in a very peaceful mountainside area, but was still perfectly located to reach the towns on Pollensa and Alcudia.
The Villa itself was immaculate inside and outside, the pool was wonderful and due to the excellent weather we spent many a day just lounging around it.
There was a lovely BBQ area, and also a seperate dining area.
We shall 100% be booking through Villa Vida again as this was truly a holiday of a lifetime.
Thank You
Our booking for June 2014 will be our fifth visit in as many years to this beautiful private location, yet only ten minutes drive from the main town.
If you want your own chilled out villa with a superb high standard accommodation away from all the crowds, this is it!
As a couple we have enjoyed everything from the picturesque infinity pool to the gorgeous garden where you can pick a fresh fig off the tree for breakfast!
We read, we swam and we even played table tennis, then laid by the pool to take in the tranquillity of this calming place all to ourselves.
A super place to relax either for that time together or even more so for families because all you need is there.
You have to appreciate that although you are only ten minutes away from the main town, you are so secluded in such a hidden little gem that is so private allowing you to just relax and enjoy your holiday the way you want to!
As a couple or as a family, this is a great place to be..make the most of it!
The villa is absolutely beautiful. It has a great fresh water pool and the decking and BBQ areas are great for Al Fresco Dining.
When not eating in the villa we took a short drive to old town Pollenca and Port De Pollenca where there are some great eateries and bars.
The villa itself had everything we needed for our stay.
Hoping to go back soon!
Finding the villa was easy with the directions given.
We were met Colin, He was very helpful & also friendly, you could ask him anything .
The villa was brand new & felt very cosy as soon as you entered.The kitchen was very well equipped, I could have been at home. Having a car to get around is essential! There is much to see & Alcudia is a interesting Spanish town only 5 mins away with lots of shops, restaurants, bars & also a lovely huge beach.
We were spoilt for places to eat. In the villa, the terrace was perfect for a morning coffee. We all had lunch down on the terrace whilst in the evening we used to eat inside a BBQ's.
I must mention the pool which in the mini "heatwave" in October was great & very private. The only trouble is there is so much to see & do we would have liked to stayed longer, hope next time.
We will certainly be booking again and are both looking forward to our next stay.
The house is set in an ideal location within easy reach of Pollença, Puerto Pollença and Alcudia. The house is approached from a private driveway, there are lovely views of the surrounding mountain range. It is in an ideal location to explore the north of Mallorca and well connected to enable you to reach Palma and the airport in approximately 45 minutes.
Golf: Alcanada 8km away 18 hole links style.
Pollença 8km away challenging and picturesque 9 holes.

Who Loves the Incumbent Vendor? Imagine you have been using a particular vendor's technology for the past five or ten years... Now it's time for an upgrade, or even a replacement of that technology. The product did what it was supposed to do at the time, but now technology has moved on and it's time for a refresh... Make sure you consider both sides of the double-edged sword of incumbency.

Song Listing
1. At the Party- The Treacherous Three
2. Starski, Live at the Disco Fever- Lovebug Starski
3. Problems of the World (Today)- Fearless Four
4. Fat Boys- Disco 3
5. Sucker SJ- Dimples D.
6. Genius Rap- Dr. Jeckyll & Mr. Hyde
7. How We Gonna Make the Black Nation Rise- Brother-D with Collective Effort
8. DMX will Rock- Davy DMX
9. Sucker M.C.'s (Krush Groove 1)- Run DMC
Not a bad collection of tracks. Perhaps the most interesting thing about this disc (and the rest of this True School series) is the diversity and inclusion of lesser known groups and songs. "At the Party" is in the classic party rocking records of the early 80's. Lovebug Starski recordings are not exactly easy to find. His addition, although way too brief, is the main attraction of this disc. He has a very old school delivery utilizing several of the typical rhymes patterns of the era.
Fearless Four are known mostly for "Rockin' It," but "Problems…" is and effective social commentary along the same line as Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five's "The Message." "Sucker DJ" by Dimples D. marks an early production effort of Marley Marl. Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde is another group that recordings are little difficult to come upon, and this track is a good party mover with a familiar keyboard backing. Davy DMX is one of hip hop's early producers, and this track was one of his biggest (behind "One for the Treble"). It features a group of female emcees. If you aren't familiar with "Sucker M.C.'s," you've got some learning to do.
You can probably find this disc pretty cheap, and if you are interesting in getting some harder to find songs I think it makes a good addition. – JohnG

Why Study Large Projects? An Introduction to Research on Project Finance
"Despite the fact that more than $200 billion of capital investment was financed through project companies in 2001, an amount that grew at a compound annual rate of almost 20% during the 1990s, there has been very little academic research on project finance. The purpose of this article is to explain why project finance in general and why large projects in particular merit separate academic research and instruction. In short, there are significant opportunities to study the relationship among structural attributes (i.e., high leverage, contractual details, and concentrated equity ownership), managerial incentives, and asset values, as well as improve current practice in this rapidly growing field of finance."

Texas A M Football
September 4, 2010 by staff
Texas A M Football, The Bulldogs have done well in recent years, winning their last three, and 10 of their last 12 bowl. They will look to land another victory in the postseason when the Battle of Texas A & M in the Independence Bowl on Monday, December 28 in Shreveport, Louisiana
Ranked No. 13 in the preseason, Georgia (7-5) was hampered by injuries, turnovers, estimated time Southerastern Conference and the overall inconsistency. The Independence Cup is far from what Bulldogs coach Mark Richt of waiting, but still gives them a tour of the national spotlight. ESPN2 telecast of the game, which is schedued for 5 pm EDT, at the Independence Stadium.
Texas A & M (6-6) returns to the postseason after missing a bowl last season. Aggies, Mike Sherman has not been one of the best teams, but have been one of the most exciting. Led by dynamic quarterback Jerrod Johnson, who rank fifth in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision in total offense. His defense, despite the efforts of the nation's leading sack Von Miller, took 107 of 120 teams.
So the chances that the Independence Bowl becoming a shootout look good – especially star receiver AJ Green is effective in his return to the lineup of Georgia. Green was lost for the last time the Bulldogs' two games with a shoulder injury.
Georgia won its last game without it, then do not upending. 7 Georgia Tech 30-24 on Nov. 26. This came two days after Texas AM & played its Big 12 Conference final against Texas. The Aggies took the second-ranked Longhorns a scare before falling 49-39.
Young Riders Georgia Levante
ground attack Georgia struggled from the start, but has received a boost freshman and sophomore Caleb King Washaun Ealey. Ealey has rushed for 639 yards and five touchdowns in eight games, and the king has 534 yards and five touchdowns in nine games. The two combined for 349 yards against Georgia Tech
Quarterback Joe Cox has gone from 2426 yards and 22 touchdowns, completing 56.1 percent of their shots. He has pitched 14 interceptions – 11 in eight games for his team in the Southeastern Conference.
Green has 47 receptions for 751 yards and six touchdowns iin nine games. Other threats are the rookie tight end Orson Charles (21 receptions, 366 yards, 3 TDs), Michael Moore (23 catches, 215 yards, five touchdowns) and freshman Tavarres King (18 receptions, 377 yards, 1 TD).
Sophomore Blair Walsh has connected on 19 of 21 field goal attempts and all 37 of his extra points, helping Georgia put up 27.7 points per game. The Bulldogs average 361.8 yards of total offense – a figure that would be much without the ball 27 that have committed
Bulldog best punter in the nation
Compounding the problem of the rotation is the fact that Georgia had just 10 steals, and turnover is the second worst in the FBS. But the Bulldogs have an All-American kicker Drew Butler. The sophomore averages 48.8 yards per punt best in the FBS. His net punting mark of 42.84 also leads the nation.
It also helps to have around Rennie Curran. Junior linebacker has collected 122 tackles, ranking 15 in the FBS. Safety Reshad Jones added 66 tackles, and he and cornerback Brandon Boykin each have three interceptions. Boykin is also an outstanding special teams, with two kickoff returns for touchdowns.
End Justin Houston has lost three games, but has posted 7.5 sacks, 28 Georgia, and his 38 tackles including 15 for losses. Geno Atkins tackle contibute 9.5 tackles for loss. Marcus Dowtin and linebackers Akeem Dent, Bryan Evans and security are also key players for a unit that is giving a respectable 328.4 yards per game. Georgia's opponents are averaging 26.4 points.
A & M quarterback explosives as Passer, Runner
The 6-foot-5, 240-pound Johnson heads a team of Texas A & M puts in 33.9 points and 465.3 yards per game. The 6-foot-5, 245-pound junior is a 61 percent passer who is thrown for 3.217 yards and 28 touchdowns against six interceptions. He'a also run for 455 yards and eight touchdowns, but has been sacked 25 times, too.
Freshman Christine Michael steps the ground attack with 767 yards and nine touchdowns, and sophomore Cyrus Gray has been launched in 752 yards and five touchdowns and a touchdown on a kickoff return.
A young receiving corps features Uzoma Nwachukwu first year (37 catches., 670 yards, six touchdowns) and sophomore Ryan Tannehill (44 receptions, 574 yards, 4 TDs). Jeff Fuller added 34 receptions for 466 yards, the second AM & tops in seven touchdown catches despite playing only eight games. Tight end Jamie McCoy has 31 receptions for 328 yards.
Miller Aggies "has 17 sacks
Miller, who plays a hybrid defensive end-linebacker hybrid, has registered an FBS-high 17 sacks. The 6-3, 240-pound junior has 44 tackles, including 21 losses and four forced fumbles.
High risk, high reward Aggies have recorded 36 sacks – tied for eighth in the FBS. But they are also giving a whopping 32.7 points and 431.3 yards per game. They have been particularly weak against the pass, yielding 262.8 yards.
Sophomore Trent Hunter leads U.S. & M in tackles with 88, and fellow safety Jordan Pugh has 75 tackles and three interceptions. The defense also has the linebacker Garrick Williams (71 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss), cornerback Terrence Frederick (56 tackles) and tackle Eddie Brown (4 sacks).
Georgia-History of Texas A & M Series
Texas AM & have a 3-1 lead in the series about Georgia. The last meeting was in 1980 when a team led by first year running back Herschel Walker routed A & M 42-0. The Bulldogs won the national title.
The previous game was a 6-0 Texas A & M in a 1954 victory. It was the triumph of the Aggies' only in its first season under the direction of Paul "Bear" Bryant. AM & also beat Georgia 14-12 in 1953 and 40-20 in 1950 recounted a bowl game Cup Chair.
The Bulldogs record their own bowl of all-time 25-16-4, including a 24-12 victory over Michigan State in the Capital One Bowl last season. Texas AM & (13-17) have lost their last three bowl games, the last being a 24-17 Alamo Bowl loss to Penn State in 2007.

Biography: I am an Electrical Engineering student at Princeton University. I grew up in the small town of Eufaula, Alabama living at the motel my family managed. At this motel, I interacted with new customers daily and helped resolve business problems, equipment problems, technology problems, and even plumbing problems! My experiences working with my hands to fix technical issues nurtured my interest in engineering. I am particularly interested in Electrical Engineering because I believe innovation is needed in the technology and energy sectors, and I want to participate in bringing about this innovation.
At Princeton, I am part of Engineers Without Borders and Princeton Racing Electric, which help me explore my interests in engineering while tackling major environmental and sustainability issues. After graduating from Princeton, I plan to attend graduate school in pursuit of a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering and, later on, a Master's in Business Administration.
I have a strong passion and admiration for design innovation and operational efficiency, and I would like to work in positions in which I can bring about their improvement. Many of the inefficiencies in major industries such as healthcare, finance, and energy, affect people adversely. Examples of these inefficiencies would be the rising "administration costs" in healthcare and waste of valuable resources in energy generation and transfer. I aim to become a leader in innovation and efficiency in my industry and to benefit society through breakthrough technological gains.

Anne Rice Finally Writes a Werewolf Novel
It's sort of shocking that it's taken the noted vampire scribe Anne Rice this long to write a werewolf novel. But she had a solid reason for avoiding the subject.
Her late sister, the novelist Alice Borchardt, wrote about werewolves, and Ms. Rice didn't want to tread on her sibling's turf. "Alice had never told me not to do it," Ms. Rice says. "It was my idea that I should stay away from werewolves."
Ms. Rice says she began to toy with the idea of a werewolf protagonist only recently, when a friend suggested she take on the topic. Her sister passed away in 2007. Ms. Rice decided to write a treatment for a television series about werewolves. She got so hooked on the story that she wrote a novel using the same concept.
"The Wolf Gift," out next week, centers on a Bay Area reporter who gets bitten by a werewolf while on a reporting assignment. He begins using his amplified sense of smell and hearing to target criminals, and falls in with an ancient cabal of werewolves.

How to Practice Kalachakra
Although some Tibetan traditions offer Kalachakra Tantra, the Jonang tradition is the only tradition which has preserved the entire Kalachakra system of practice. This includes all of the extensive practices from fundamental preliminaries up to the completion process containing the six yogas. This tradition has been practised for centuries in remote parts of Tibet, untouched by politics or modernisation. The recent emergence from Tibet brings with it an authenticity and purity almost impossible to find today.
Within the Jonang Tradition, the practice of the Kalachara Path is broken into four distinct phases or sets of practices:
External Preliminaries
During this phase, practitioners work to familiarize their minds with the Four Convictions of Renunciation and develop a strong connection to the lineage masters of the Jonang Kalachakra Lineage. This phase helps orient the mind away from mundane concerns and towards spiritual practice.
Internal Preliminaries
At this point, the practitioner strengthens their resolve towards spiritual practice by working with the five inner preliminaries: refuge, bodhichitta, vajrasattva purification, mandala offerings and guru yoga. This process lays the foundation for entering into the practice of Buddhist tantra.
Unique Preliminaries
In order to prepare the mind for engaging in the Kalachakra completion stage practices, practitioners must first practice the two unique preliminaries of Innate Kalachakra and Three Solitudes. This latter practice is an extremely effective tantric method for developing shamatha. It is equivalent to practices found within the Dzogchen and Mahamudra traditions.
Six Vajra Yogas
Having fully prepared their minds, the final phase is to engage in the practices of the Six Vajra Yogas. Each practice within this six-phase series is introduced to the student in direct guidance of a qualified Kalachakra master. Practitioners receive personal instruction, engage with the practice and then report their progress to their teacher. The teacher then introduces new practices when the student is ready for them. This process continues until the student reaches enlightenment.

Report summary
Construction of the smelter started in 2005, with completion and commissioning in May 2006. Design capacity was 100kt/a slab zinc and 190kt/a sulphuric acid. The smelter uses the Jarosite residue process. Commissioning of an expansion of the smelter by 100kt/a to 200kt/a slab zinc, comprising a separate plant alongside the existing smelter was completed in 2009. Most plant areas were twinned in the expansion, however only one casting plant is used for both production lines.

During a Bon Festival Retsu was found assassinated in his chambers. [2] His Lord had been divising a plan to assault the nearby Phoenix lands, but Shizuma disagreed with the plan because the Tsume army was not prepared for such feat. Retsu's death halted the plans. [1]

Spell It Out: The Curious, Enthralling and Extraordinary Story of English…
by David Crystal
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Don't be put off by Crystal's prissy introduction. I think he's just a bit annoyed because he's a serious academic and he's written something that's fun to read. There is a 'teaching appendix' but the bulk of the book is the history of English seen through the medium of its spelling. That may sound a bit dry, but really it's not. It's written for the layman with a minimum of technical language. I'm relatively well informed for a layman and I learnt loads. I liked the parts about Old and Middle English the most.
An approachable explanation of how and why English spelling has changed since it was first written by Anglo-Saxon clerics. Crystal is erudite, pragmatic, and witty. The book will not help the reader to spell better but it does indicate the tools needed to learn the skill and makes sensible suggestions about effective way to teach it.

250-3000 savage high power
1 Attachment(s)
So I found a box of 250-3000 savage high power in the back of an old gun cabinet today and I've never seen them before I was just wondering if anyone knew anything about them.
If it is a full box, you could get $40 to $50 for them on gunbroker. What else do you want to know? They are for a rifle chambered for .250 Savage ammo, they are .25 caliber and will shoot that 87 grain bullet at approximately 3000 fps.
This cartridge was originally developed for the Savage 99, one of my favorite rifles.
The 250-3000, the original quarter bore, developed in the 19 teens by Savage I think. I mean you had the .25-20 & the .25-35 but them were rimmed cartridges, this was one of if not the hottest of the rimless cartridges of the time. Now a days they are just known as the .250 Savage & you can find em some times for around 40 bucks, to collectors you might be able to sell them for 4 or 5 buck a piece, as a matter of fact I will give you 5 bucks for one of em, if you want to break up the box, you might even get 10 or 15 dollars just for the empty box to a collector, looks like its in good shape................
Let me know.
It's a full box and thanks for the info guys but I have a small collection of old cartridges myself so I think I'll keep it.

Showing the separation between where Obama's elitist personality holds himself compared to the rest of us schmucks, the Commander-in-Chief pulled yet another hypocritical stunt. Just hours after denying a girl who had been waiting for hours the chance for a selfie, he proceeded to take one with the Malaysian prime minister.
Mika Taylor, 13, along with a group of her friends from the U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan, waited for hours just to get a glimpse of the highly esteemed leader. Taylor however, didn't just want a snap of the man as he walked by; she actually wanted a selfie – an idea, she'd later have to suffer without.
(See also: Another Shameless Selfie From Geraldo, When Will He Learn?)
Taylor was standing up against the barricade with a sign that read, "MR. PRESIDENT MAY A [sic] HAVE A SELFIE WITH YOU?" Of course, as the elitist snob caught wind of the sign, he rejected the girls request reasoning that if he did it with her, he'd have to do it with everyone.
Instead, he told her, "Just take a picture of me as I'm going by."
Within the same day, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak posted a pic of a selfie he took with none other than Barack Obama. Sharing the photo on Twitter, the caption read, "My selfie with President Obama !"
(See also: Female Soldier Takes Unpatriotic Selfie, Could Go To Prison)
You'd think that after all the trouble Obama has had with every single one of the selfies he's taken, that he'd know by now to just leave well enough alone. Of course, as Obama has always done what he wanted despite the outward disapproval of the public, I suppose we shouldn't expect any different.
It all started during the Mandela memorial service when Obama snapped the shot with himself, Prime Minister David Cameron and Denmark's Prime Minister Helle Thorning Schmidt. As the world realized that Obama was no more grieving the loss of Mandela than he does the soldiers that return in a flag draped coffin, the world went up on arms over the image.
He most recently was caught in a minor scandal after taking a selfie with Boston Red Sox David Ortiz where it was later discovered that the ball player had signed a contract with Samsung to get the photo for a promotional stunt.
(See also: PHOTOS: New Instagram Page Encourages Post-Sex Selfies)
In an attempt to help Joe Biden as well, he even snapped one of them in the back of the presidential limo – a photo that funnily enough, has since been dubbed "dumb and dumber."
So what do you guys think – is it time Obama puts down the cell phone and focuses on his job for once, or will Obama always do what Obama wants to do? Let us know in a comment below.
