Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2013-03-04/WikiProject report
WikiProject Television Stations
This week, we tuned to WikiProject Television Stations, a project that dates back to March 2004. WikiProject Television Stations primarily focuses on local stations, national networks, television markets, and other topics related to television channels in North America, the Caribbean, and some Pacific countries. Other areas of the world are handled by the regional subprojects dedicated to British, Australian, and Indian television or by the parent WikiProject Television. Among the various tasks handled by WikiProject Television Stations are developing the television station infobox, keeping the project's categories tidy, updating station lists, and building articles. The project has a fair bit of work ahead of them with over 4,000 unassessed articles and only one Good Article out of 626 assessed articles, giving the project a relative WikiWork rating of 5.262. We asked Nate (Mrschimpf) how we can help.
- What motivated you to join WikiProject Television Stations? Have you contributed to any other television-related WikiProjects?
- I have had a long-held interest in television stations and broadcasting in general since I was a child. Although I never went into the industry, the fascination with local television, the many ways of presenting local television news and graphical identities led me to keep following it. Naturally I joined Wikipedia after hearing about it from the television critic for the Kansas City Star eight years back, and my main interest has remained in local television stations. I do consider myself a floating, but not official member of WP:TV, as I usually stick to articles about television shows that interest me most and keeping articles about children's networks and programming from turning into promotional pieces.
- How technical do articles about television stations tend to be? Are some sections of these articles harder to research and write than others? What images are needed to illustrate articles about television stations?
- If there's one thing I'm glad for, the public domain information from the Federal Communications Commission provides a nice and stable ground to start articles about stations, thus the most technical details to be found out are the neighborhoods and areas where the transmitters and studios are and of former transmitter sites that are defunct due to suburban encroachment or the digital transition, or other factors. Being technical about a station is fine, but you have to still give the article a touch that the average reader can understand.
- As for images, as a longtime editor, we have become more focused in what images are used in articles. Because of the restrictions on fair use guidelines over the years, an article that in 2007 may have contained multiple screengrabs and historical logos now in 2013 usually only provides the current station logo, an image of the station's newscast opening or the main anchor team, and in rare cases (such as for larger market stations), public domain or Creative Commons images of other station staff. Previously before the culling of this, articles were more focused on imaging, where now television station articles are more focused on basics and newscast descriptions. Admittedly the fair use policies took a bit to get used to as they were instituted, but they provide a good idea of where we must go, and there are other resources (such as Wikia's Logopedia) where those interested can look up historical station logos.
- Why does WikiProject Television Stations focus primarily on stations in North America? Are some regions of North America better covered by Wikipedia than others? What can be done to improve articles about television stations in other parts of the world?
- Mainly it's more the setup of North American television more than anything, specifically that of Canada, the United States and Caribbean states, and to a lesser extent, the Philippines, which as a former American dependency shares some part of the North American television structure (Japan also does to a point, though they have their own eccentricities). Australia also is structured American-style, though with much fewer stations than the US and Canada. In other nations, the setup of network television consists of:
- Main station in country's capital/largest city
- Smaller stations retransmit that signal with maybe only a local news/weather cut-in
- Main network/engineering third party maintains all stations and transmitters
- Also in the Middle East, India and Africa, those stations usually have negligible station coverage and then mostly satellite networks serving them.
- Thus in those cases, the main network article covers everything, and for all intents and purposes, nobody in London knows BBC One as "Channel 26" in that area, because the digital system bumps everyone to "Channel 1" to watch BBC One. So covering local television is a less critical need of coverage for nations with the 'hub-spoke' broadcasting model.
- Canada and US are by far the most covered by WPTVS, with Mexico a close third in my view, followed by the Philippines and Australia. Trailing off from there, are other North American markets where little information is available, such as Puerto Rico. As expected, the coverage of Mexico, the Philippines and Central and Caribbean America is only as good as the devoted contributors there, and depends on good language comprehension. In vacation destinations though, the coverage is much more spotty as it's natural that a Wikipedia contributor's priority is low in covering the television happenings of the US Virgin Islands. Coverage can be improved with more outreach to the editors of those other nations, but one problem has been the Filipino coverage of their stations is much more influenced by 'network fans' because of the very competitive television network scene in that nation, which results in promotional problems with coverage in the nation's stations.
- In 2008, the project dealt with the ramifications of a Digital Millennium Copyright Act takedown order. What happened, how did it impact the WikiProject, and have there been any new developments since then?
- The takedown of the Designated Market Area (DMA) information by ACNielsen was a shock to be sure. The DMA information provided a simple way to categorize the nation's television markets from largest to smallest, and when we lost that, we had to scramble. Public domain descriptions of geography helped to define a general area of a television station's territory rather than the defined DMA borders, and other factors such as natural weather warning areas and regions certainly have helped make things as easy as possible. Using US Census information to sort largest-to-smallest areas has helped too, though I do admit the Nielsen-defined areas were easier. But we have been able to manage. Nothing has really changed since 2008, except for letting newer contributors know about the DMCA claim when they put in the numbers without knowing the problems.
- How are defunct television stations treated? Where can Wikipedians find historical information on television stations?
- It depends on the station. If it was on the air for less than a year, it can usually be summarized within another article in the general area, especially if it's shared another channel in the past. But that is definitely something more done by local viewers who are eager to share the information through library and archival searches using hard copy sources such as newspaper microfilm, station archives (in these days, much harder as stations merge and things get trashed), local listings and memories of others; the Internet definitely does not contain that much about the UHF white dwarfs of the 1950's. Thankfully many television enthusiasts are out there to tell us about the intricacies and histories of their markets.
- What are the project's most urgent needs? How can a new contributor help today?
- Our most urgent need is good and focused article writing. Too many of the smaller articles (such as those for Class A television stations and minor network affiliates are less researched than major full power stations. They need more help than most. Another need for articles is more sources for research. Many have sprung up since Wikipedia began, and now even with the FCC with a few clicks you can see a station's coverage area within Google Earth. But we can always get better.
- As for new contributors, I always say they're welcome to pick up and start helping us out, we could always use their eyes as to how their television stations are, though we ask for neutrality in their writing. Especially, we're always looking for international coverage to expand, and in Canada with their shifting television scene as the CBC and other networks close stations to make wide swaths of that nation cable-only, we're looking for some help there. As I say on my userpage, bring the bricks of your knowledge, and we'll put a good foundation below it with our expertise.
- Anything else you'd like to add?
- That should pretty much cover everything. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to speak about WPTVS, and hopefully the Signpost can provide our group a little more wide exposure.
Next week, we'll begin oral arguments in the landmark case of this century. Until then, enjoy the supreme wisdom of our previous interviews in the archive.

It became clear from the start of their search that Toph had been serious when she claimed her turn for a 'Zuko field trip'. As soon as they had split from the others she had become more vocal than Zuko had ever known her to be. Going into detail about her home life, the times she ran away, her Earth Rumble fights. Far more detail than Zuko had expected.
"I know I shouldn't complain. My parents gave me everything I ever asked for. But they never gave me the one thing I really wanted, their love. You know what I mean?"
Zuko sighed and turned to face Toph, "Look, I know you had a rough childhood. But we should really focus on finding Aang."
Zuko turned and walked away but stopped when he heard Toph sad sigh, "This is the worst field trip ever."
He stopped, "I didn't mean it like that."
"Sure you did." Toph was quick to snap,
Zuko knew the young girl well enough not to be dissuaded. "No, I didn't. For everyone else, there was something that only I could help them with. Aang and I needed to gain control of our firebending. Sokka needed help breaking into a Fire Nation prison, and I helped Katara track down one of the Navy ships."
Toph cut in, "Yeah, and in the process everyone got to experience a life changing moment." The sarcasm in her voice still covering her wounded pride.
"But that's just it. I didn't pull each of them aside and show them, I was along for the ride as much as they were. And the thing is, I can't help you. You don't need my help. You're this amazing kid. You've got so much confidence and willpower, a great sense of humor. You're the greatest earthbender I've ever met, so much so that you even invented a new form of bending. Being blind would cripple anyone else, but you turn it to your advantage in every aspect of your life."
Zuko paused for a moment, "Toph, I'm touched that you wanted to spend time with me. I really am. And I'm amazed and grateful that you were so trusting of me so soon after I joined the group. Especially after…after what I did to you. But you don't need my help. Your parents are something you need to take care of on your own."
Toph's original disappointment faded and her shoulders slumped. Turning away from Zuko she sighed. "Yeah, I know. It's just…It's just hard. I can't get them to see who I really am."
She tensed when she felt Zuko pull her into a hug. "Tell you what," he said, "any time you need to talk about it. Just come find me."
"You mean that?"
"Absolutely. We can swap stories and everything."
Toph returned the hug, "You've got a deal Sparky."
The pair separated and resumed their trek down the beach in companionable silence. Or they would have, except that after a few steps Toph punched Zuko hard enough to stagger him.
"What was that for?"
"I don't do hugs. I already told you how I show affection. Now let's find Twinkletoes."
Author's notes:
I honestly felt bad when I saw this scene in the finale. Toph was clearly so eager to have a chance for her field trip, and Zuko just shot her down. I know the situation wasn't exactly the best time for it, but I still couldn't help but feel sad when I saw Toph's forlorn expression. She was like a little blind puppy.
At any rate, what I wanted to show was what I felt might likely be some of Zuko's reasons for why he didn't give Toph the field trip she wanted. Again, it wasn't the best time. But for one, he didn't bring about the personal realizations for Aang, Sokka and Katara, he just happened to be there at the time. And secondly, Zuko isn't the best person to go to for parental advice. Seriously, Iroh played no small part in Zuko being half as well-adjusted as he is. Just imagine how easily he could have ended up twice the sociopath Azula is.
Complete dissection of my own story aside, I hope you enjoyed reading it. Don't hesitate to review or otherwise contact me with anything you'd like to say. I'm working on more Avatar stories and other fanfics, so check back soon.

Laser trick makes lab-on-a-chip more versatile
A FINE beam of light could push tiny liquid samples through "microfluidic" devices, instead of the mechanical pumps or electric fields now used in these labs-on-a-chip. A laser would be a more versatile tool to pump, divide and sort single cells or viruses for analysis.
"A laser would be a more versatile tool to sort single cells for analysis in microfluidic devices"
Jean-Pierre Delville from the University of Bordeaux 1 in France and colleagues passed a beam of light perpendicularly through the interface between two different liquids to create a jet of liquid that flowed along the beam, but in the opposite direction to the flow of photons. This happens because the liquids have different refractive indexes, causing the speed of the photons to change as they flow across the interface, altering their momentum. As momentum has to be conserved, the interface experiences a force in the opposite direction, creating a tiny bulge that slowly grows.
At some point, the interface can no longer support the pressure in the ever-increasing bulge, and a jet of fluid bursts through. As it does so, the light scatters, changing the momentum in such a way that it causes the fluid to flow towards the source of the beam, travelling up to 300 micrometres.
The team then used a second beam of light to manipulate the droplets of the fluid jet once they were moving. For example, the heat from the second beam could be used to increase the surface tension on only one side of the droplets, causing them to move

We've done some articles in the past covering how to remotely restart or shutdown a computer, and since then we've come across more utilities that we thought you would love. So we decided to put together a compilation of tools that you can use to shutdown one or several computers remotely.
As we've previously shown it is possible to shutdown computers remotely from the command line, but it may not be as convenient as some of the applications out there. The four tools that we've listed below are all extraordinary because they are all 100% free, and none of them require any installation. Oh, and they give you the option to browse for computers on the network so that you don't have to remember their names or IP addresses!
Each of the tools have a unique feature that really sets them apart from the others. So before deciding on which one you want to use I recommend reading through your options.
–Remote Reboot (Homepage)–
This is a very simple solution to remotely restarting a computer. One thing that really sets this apart from the others is that it has the checkbox to forcefully shutdown the remote computer. Sometimes there is an application that just will not end, and by forcing the computer to shutdown you can circumvent any possible problems.
One other thing that makes this special is that you can provide a reason for shutting down the computer, which the Windows Server administrators out there may find useful.
–Remote Shutdown (Homepage)–
The reason I like Remote Shutdown is that you can type a message to be displayed on the remote computer, and it can include a button to cancel the operation before it occurs. This is useful, for example, in a household where you may try to shutdown all of the computers before you go to bed. If someone was still using the computer they would be able to cancel out of the shutdown process.
–Shutter (Homepage)–
Compared to the others it's a little different to use Shutter to remotely restart a computer. In the options it has a setting where you can turn on a web interface for shutting down the computer. Then all you have to do is point a web browser to the computer's IP address and designated port number to go through with turning it off. The web interface will also let you turn the monitor off, mute the volume, and more.
If you think about it this is pretty different from the way the other programs work. You don't actually have to be running Shutter on the computer your using the shut it down with, instead you just connect via a website. With a little port forwarding on your router this could easily work outside of the local network.
–PowerOff (Homepage)–
This is not only one of my favorite applications, but it is also one of the few that have always been on my USB drive. The reason why this one is so great is because it has an option to shutdown computers in bulk! You can specify a group of computers according to name or IP address (you can also browse for locally networked computers), and it will execute them all simultaneously. If you've got several computers that you want to shutdown this has got to be the option for you!
Note: The "bulk" shutdown feature is only available in the Beta version of PowerOff.

Higher Innovation and Immensely Strong Casio Protrek Watches
Watches come and go; if someone has to own all watches in the world, every damn model in its every variation, it's impossible in a lifestime. Even for the one with the deepest pockets. There, sense also comes into play. It's the meaningful ones that finally make into the scene.
A good chunk of this meaningful watches come from Casio. The Pro-Trek, among them, are an outstanding lot; all for rough work and dirty play! The official Casio website bathes them with compliments like rugged, stylish, versatile and the best for 'feeling the field'; this, however, is a marketing/advertising charm directed to the urban, mall-hopper; the real outdoor folks (even the risky kind) don't really need any introduction to the name. The Triple Sensor, Ver. 3 Pro-Trek comes in many skins, shapes and sizes; unless you are Superman, it can help you in quite a few many ways. The website also says – "Developed in pursuit of practical utility..." – now, that's true to its every bit!
As an ultimate in outdoor gears, the ana-digi Pro-Trek is an evolution – or so the pro-s state. The usefulness of the Pro-Trek pieces – according to some – belong to another dimension – now, you don't have to be a fanatic lke them for looking up to the specs and chuckle in glory.
The high-performance Triple Sensor, Ver. 3 is a sensor-mechanism that measures altitude, barometric pressure and temperature with high accuracy without making you wait for an eternity. The advanced technological concepts and components merge to create these miniat miniaturised marvels. Marvels , for combining real-world utility to a fine-quality timepiece cannot be given another name. That's why you do not restrict this outdoor tool to the outdoors only and set it out to explore and evolve the way the new fields need it to be. The Seiko flightmaster arsenal thus never runs out of breath.
The higher innovation comes in the form of highly sensitive, miniature sensors that send electrical impulses to their own dedicated processors, one for each. The changes in reading are instant and constant and to the highest levels of precision! That kind of answers why pro-s goes gaga on the Pro-Trek.
It's not very hard guessing that Casio's higher innovations shall give the Pro-Trek features to change the way you think; looking at the Pro-Trek Triple Sensor Solar Titanium (PRG-505T-7) after the Seiko arctura kinetic perpetual, you can't think otherwise. The former is an advanced form of the latter and it's fun to see how the plenty good points of the SP-Titanium advanced to pack 3 sensors in the 3-Sensor Solar Titanium. However, the reason someone metrosexual will like them are going to be different from the pro-s unless you are a pro who is a metrosexual as well.

Ok here it goes. So i've tried elisa strauss' red velvet cake recipe and everything is good so far except for one thing the top of the cake becomes pretty hard. especially when it hits room temperature. And this isn't just with elisa strauss' recipe it's with every red velvet recipe i've tried. i've also tried other recipes but i still get the hard top. so i was wondering if any of you guys have ran into this problem. i have never tried a recipe with Crisco shortening do you think if i used the crisco instead of the oil or butter. do you think it will make the top less hard?
Also i've baked plenty of cakes so i know im following the recipe right. it's only with red velvet do i get this hard top.
alright thanks hopefully you guys can tell me why i get that hard top (=
I'm not sure if using Crisco will solve your problem, but the recipe I use calls for shortening and I've never had a hard top on my red velvet cakes. Try the Waldorf-Astoria recipe on recipezaar, it's the one I use and it comes out wonderful every time (especially with the cooked frosting...yummy!).
oh ok thanks i appreciate it (=. im gonna go check that recipe out Thanks again!
No prob! Hope it works for you. Oh and try baking at 325. I never bake anything higher than that and I just keep checking it until it tests done.
I've noticed that with my Red Velvet Cake too, the hardness on top. Two things that work for me are 1. Wrapping the cake in saran wrap before it is cool completely. That really helps to redistribute some of the moisture. 2. Simple syrup. I just use vanilla simple syrup and brush on the top. It works wonders!
I've been trying out some red velvet recipes lately and my first attempt came out with a hard crust. I learned here on CC that it was because I was using dutch processed cocoa... could this be your problem?
wow that sounds like a good idea mjballinger i will definitely try that. oh no i just use regular cocoa powder from Trader joe's or i use ghirardelli
but i think the saran wrap or the simple syrup will work thank you so much mjballinger much appreciated (=

Editor's Note: Green at the Center
Sustainability has emerged as a top priority for many consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies whose products line grocery shelves in stores across the United States. One important way manufacturers are greening their business practices is in the realm of packaging.
Sustainability has emerged as a top priority for many consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies whose products line grocery shelves in stores across the United States. One important way manufacturers are greening their business practices is in the realm of packaging.
But as I discovered while working on the article about the work the Sustainable Packaging Coalition is doing with many CPG companies, among them such household names as ConAgra, Kellogg and Kraft, the concept of sustainable packaging involves much more than just developing an eco-friendly container. "One can design an incredibly materially efficient packaging, but if it ends up in a landfill, by definition, that is not a sustainable use of resources," points out coalition director Anne Johnson. "A package in and of itself cannot be 'sustainable'; only systems can be sustainable."
The group has been spreading its message through education outreach, which it caps with an irresistible takeaway for money-conscious goods manufacturers and retailers alike: "Sustainable packaging is also cost management," as Johnson says.
Grocers have also been busy coming up with greener packaging solutions for their private label products, as in the case of Grand Rapids, Mich.-based Spartan Stores, which earlier this year bowed recyclable and biodegradable molded fiber containers for its Spartan brand eggs sold at the company's 100 retail locations. As a bonus, the new packaging cushions the eggs and provides impact protection in transit and in storage, as well as absorbing moisture.
Beyond packaging, CPG companies are intrepidly exploring other ways to help the environment and their bottom lines. Unilever, for example, last month rolled out one of its first U.S. "One Unilever" distribution centers consolidating food and personal care products at a single location, thus enabling more efficient distribution of items to several of the company's largest customers, which are conveniently located near the Wilmer, Texas, facility.
The grocery industry can expect further innovations in this vein as trusted manufacturers and the retailers that stock them grapple with the issue on most people's minds these days: What can we do to reverse or at least slow down the damage to the earth? Many consumers will be looking eagerly to supermarket operators and CPG companies to provide inventive — and correct — answers.

Japan's second largest automaker, Honda was recalling about 6,68,000 vehicles in Japan for defective air bags. The recall is to replace airbag inflators supplied by Takata Corp. The cars manufactured during the period between 2009 and 2011 were affected.
Globally, Honda has recalled about 51 million cars with defective airbags. The airbags have caused 14 deaths and over 150 injuries worldwide and Honda's recall is the biggest ever in the history of the auto industry.
As one of the largest consumer of Takata, Honda has said it would stop using Takata-made inflators which caused these incidents. The problem is Takata inflator uses ammonium nitrate-based propellant, but without a drying agent. This causes the tendency to explode.

Question to the Blogger
The Dodge Poetry Festival venues are set up so that there are one-one-one sessions, group sessions with three or four poets, and larger readings in the main stage tent, either 30-minute readings by one poet or 30 poets reading for 5 minutes each. The events outside of the main stage tent can hold 200-500 people at a time.
The great thing about Dodge is that the poets make themselves accessible. For instance, I ran into Sharon Olds when she first arrived for yesterday's session (she's a former teacher of mine), and Robert Hass I caught in the book tent. Martín Espada I spoke with briefly after his reading. Also, most sessions, whether they are readings or conversations with poets, leave time for questions and answers.
I don't know if I'm bold (and I certainly haven't arrived), but I make it a point to speak with as many people as I can at these events. I'm not one to pass up an opportunity like this. Besides, I love talking about poetry and, in particular, the Dodge Poetry Festival. Here, I can talk about poetry and be understood without any explanation. And it gives me a chance to listen to powerful, thoughtful words and ideas among people who practice the craft that I depend upon for my very survival. I can't put a finer point on that.
Blogging about it is my way of sharing this experience, which is nothing short of life-affirming every time I attend.
Thanks for the questions and comments. Keep 'em coming!

Good for you! When I get near I poet I really admire I tend to mumble ridiculous things like, "Your book, me likey likey."
I completely lose my head and would not even have a question to ask. I'm shy/overwhelmed like that. However, if I'm not worshipping a poet, I can talk to them for days. ;-)

Thanks for answering my question, Jan. Of course, I forgot that you would have former teachers (Sharon Olds - lucky you). My own degree is in chemistry, and I also have a business qualification, so no poets among my teachers there!
Keep the great reports coming.

Small Oak is a location from the 1985 animated series She-Ra: Princess of Power.
She-Ra: Princess of Power
Small Oak was a region in Etheria where the Evil Horde had set up a research base. A spy for the Great Rebellion reported to it's leaders that the Horde may be developing a new chemical weapon there.
Adora decided to check out the base together with Glimmer, who was suffering from delusions of grandure at the time. Glimmer thought herself capable enough to sneak into the base on her own, using her light powers. On the roof of the complex, she was confronted by Hover Robots. Luckily for her, She-Ra was on hand to safe her.
The two Rebels where then confronted by Catra and two Horde Troopers, who sprayed the young women with a shrinking gas developed by a Horde Scientist at the complex. The Scientist had a net and a tiny box with him to catch She-Ra, Glimmer and Swift Wind. However, the shrinking effect took some time to take hold and the Rebels managed to escape.
Once the shrinking gas did take effect, the three tiny Rebels, joined by full size Bow, returned to the complex to find an antidote. The Horde Scientist already had one on hand, having developed the growing serum even before he had perfected the shrinking one. As the full grown Rebels made their way out of the research complex, they made sure it was destroyed during their effort.

Convenience at a price?
A pharmaceutical company has come up with a landmark cure for hepatitis C, a deadly liver virus that infects three to five times more people than HIV. However, at the hefty cost of $1,000 per pill, it is extremely expensive and has prompted debate over affordability and profiteering.
Gilead Sciences Inc. of Foster City, California manufactures sofosbuvir (brand name Sovaldi). These pills will spare the pain of long-term procedures and weekly injections of a drug that can have severe side effects on the already deteriorating health of patients suffering from this liver-destroying virus.
In addition, sofosbuvir pills can effectively treat – and maybe even cure – hepatitis C in about 12 weeks. This means it would take approximately $84,000 for the complete treatment and $168,000 for the 24 weeks needed for difficult cases.
Sofosbuvir was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on December 6.
"Around 150 million people worldwide are chronically infected with Hepatitis C, putting them at risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer," accord to World Health Organisation (WHO).
"Affordability is an urgent and pressing issue," WHO Director General Margaret Chan told Reuters during a visit to London.
"These drugs are very expensive. How can we address this? I hope we can learn from the lesson of HIV and find solutions without confrontations."
Last year, FDA approved Gilead's four-in-one AIDS treatment combination Stribild, which was termed as the most expensive combination HIV drug on the market. It was priced at $28,500 per patient, per year.
Nonprofit organizations of HIV prevention services, testing, and healthcare for HIV patients, protestedagainst the overpricing of necessary drugs in March, claiming the pharmaceutical company was trying to profit from people's suffering.
"There is little doubt the new drugs will transform hepatitis C treatment - and prove hugely profitable," according to Thomson Reuters Pharma. While in the developed world, they are expected to become major blockbusters, with consensus sales forecasts for Sovaldi alone standing at $6.8 billion in 2018, in the developing world, however, it may be totally out of reach.
It took almost a decade for people in the developing countries to have access to life-saving HIV medicines due to overpricing. One wonders if the same would happen in the case of hepatitis C.

Five-Point Inspection: 2014 Mazda MX-5 Club
AutoGuide Five-Point Inspection
Mazda's MX-5 isn't powerful, the body leans on corner turn-in like a blade of saw grass in a stiff breeze and frankly it's frustratingly expensive.
Despite all of that, I and practically every other member of the automotive media seem to agree that the near-gone third-generation "NC" Miata is more fun than feeding espresso to someone else's toddler just to watch chaos unfold.
You should probably buy one, but not without careful consideration of these five points.

A Fairmont State University class studying Caribbean culture will present a Folktale Carnaval on Thursday, Dec. 4, in the Multi-media Room A of the Ruth Ann Musick Library. The event will include two folktale performances from "Creole Folktales" by Patrick Chamoiseau, as well as music, images and refreshments.
Fairmont State University is the first university in West Virginia to be awarded a grant to host the Tournées Film Festival, held annually since 2004. The festival is a program of the French American Cultural Exchange (FACE), in partnershp with the Cultural Services of the French Embassy.
Every spring, French-speaking educators and community members from around the state gather for a day of language immersion. This year Fairmont State University and Dr. Erin Hippolyte, Assistant Professor of French, hosted the French Immersion Day event for the first time.
Fairmont State University senior Alicia Nieman received a $2,500 study abroad scholarship from the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program. Nieman is the first Fairmont State University student in recent history to receive the scholarship and spent five weeks this summer in South Africa.
On a warm day in early June, Fairmont State senior, Alicia Nieman and I meet at a local lunch spot. To most people we may look like colleagues or friends who are taking some time to reconnect. In actuality I am stealing a few moments of her time to witness her crossroad moment and to share it with you.

El Niño and the Southern Oscillation is by far the most striking phenomenon caused by the interplay of ocean and atmosphere. It can be explained neither in strictly oceanographic nor strictly meteorological terms. This volume provides a brief history of the subject, summarizes the oceanographic and meteorological observations and theories, and discusses the recent advances in computer modeling studies of the phenomenon. It includes a comprehensive and up-to-date research survey and discusses in detail sophisticated computer models. It provides a clear exposition of the major problems which prevent more accurate predictions of El Niño.
"The book will be indispensable to anyone attempting to penetrate the large and confusing literature; Philander has made a good story of it."

ABSTRACT The migration of marine benthic macroinvertebrates into inland through canals is a common phenomenon in the hydrosphere. In this phenomenon the aquatic fauna migrate into the inland waters both temporary and endless times. The evaluation of saline intrusion and sea level rise would be suggested based on the analysis of migration of marine benthic macroinvertebrates. In this study, data for surface water quality and benthic macroinvertebrates of the environmental samples collected from Dongnai River and its tributaries were obtained from 1996 to 2010 to evaluate saline intrusion. The results showed that there was the migration of marine benthic macroinvertebrates into the Dongnai River and its tributaries and it has being gradually increased in migration rates.
Key words: Benthic macroinvertebrates, Migrated phenomenon, Dongnai River and tributaries, Saline intrusion, Sea level rise.

The other apprentice said no and walked away, but Brightpaw stayed she knew his pain. Then when they went to snakerocks to find out what was stealing their prey a huge dog Encountered them. Then as Brightpaw was shocked Swiftpaw stood in front of her, protecting her. Then as she ran up then tree Swiftpaw ran half way up and a dog grabbed him by the back and flew him in the air. Brightpaw thought, if I go down there maybe they will go for me and leave Swiftpaw alone. So then she ran down the tree and gave her self away as a huge down grabbed her by the face, ripped out her eye tore her ear and tore her skin off, she fell to the ground unconscious.

Swiftpaw is also gave FireStar his sixth life. FireStar felt the pain of Swiftpaw's death and he said it was his fault for his death. Swiftpaw said no, it was my destiny.

When not writing, you can find him online learning new software technology (mostly out of need and desperation because the cyberworld refuses to sit still) and in the garden. He and his wife, an elementary school teacher, try to go camping as often as possible in the summers with their 11 year old.
He's always open to e-mail from readers with questions about books or writing in general. You can reach him at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Welcome to Novel Journey, Mel!
You are a best-selling, award winning author—not an easy task in this competitive market. Aside from great writing, to what do you credit this success?
All those people that buy and read the books!
I think I've been incredibly lucky over the years, but mostly I believe that God knew I wanted and needed a job that was creative, had flexible hours, and would allow me to stay close to my kids. I also have constantly felt there was something I could learn about my craft, so that keeps me humble and a constant student. I don't think I know it all, and I don't believe at this stage anyone can ever know everything about writing.
I have ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), which is both a blessing and a curse. The condition makes it hard for me to sit still for very long unless I'm totally absorbed in whatever I'm working on—and sometimes even being absorbed won't keep me from being distracted. The best thing an ADHD person can do is to figure out where his or her passions lie and find a job that allows him or her to pursue that passion. Writing has always been my passion, and even when I have a project that doesn't turn out to be successful, I still enjoy writing it and I learn from the process.
On the plus side of ADHD, my constantly shifting focus allows me to dig into new material all the time. The idea of doing the same thing over and over again would drive me to tears. I can't tell you on how many occasions my wandering attention span has found something new to me and managed to bring a fistful of book and short story ideas to mind. Every time I'm presented was something that's new to me, I can't help twisting and turning ideas and information about it. I ask myself questions about whatever it is and can't help but relate it to someone else who might have those questions and what their motivation might be to learn the answers. That's what stories are about.
And I can't discount my stubbornness. I'm a small town guy at heart. I grew up in a town of 300 people. I don't like being told that I can't do something or don't qualify. When I was younger I would believe that for a while because I was shy and less confident than I am today, but eventually my desire to do something pushed me to figure out a way to accomplish a goal no one else thought I could do. Now I know that there's always a way to do something and I trust myself enough to invest time and effort to find that way to do it.
Many authors struggle with only writing in one genre. Having been multi-published in different genres, what are your thoughts on this?
I really think writing is writing. It's a craft you can learn if you desire to. Anyone who wants to write can figure out a way to write—if that person is willing to take the time, invest resources, and learn from mistakes. Therefore, if I can find a way to do one kind of writing, I'm already a step closer to learning a second way of writing. Martial arts and sports in general are a lot the same: there are only so many ways the body can move and respond to stimulus, and the emphasis changes with the endeavor the athlete is trying to make.
That's the way it is with the writer also. A lot of authors I've talked to have developed tunnel vision and restricted their own abilities to write. They believe they can only write one thing, or that writing anything else would be too hard. Also, a lot of them are afraid to fail. I accept failing as part of the writing process, as part of any process. There hasn't been anything I've done that I haven't failed at in some respect or at sometime. Each one of those failures has taught me more than the successes I've had. When you have a success, people pat you on the head and tell you good job. Generally you will receive some kind of instruction, guidance, and direction during a failure. Failing is when learning is optimal if you can get over the initial sting quickly enough and remain open to helpful criticism.
I also love to read in several genres. I read across the board, science fiction, fantasy, suspense, mysteries, romance, westerns, and horror. I read adult books, teen books, and children's books. Every writer you read has something to teach you if you want to be a writer. You have to learn to look beyond the entertainment value you're getting and seek out the knowledge and skill that writer has to offer.
Everything I've written, I'm proud of. Every time I've written something outside of what readers may perceive as my "normal" genre (and many of them have different perceptions of me), I've learned something new about the craft that I could bring back to the books that I write. When you're learning to do something you love, there is no wasted effort or wasted time.
I've got five children. Parents of multiple children can tell you that you can't simply be the same parent to all children. Kids don't work that way. Each of them has their own agenda, their own passions, and their own direction. And each one of the kids you raise will teach you something if you pay attention. No two relationships are the same. I've raised four sons and no two of them were alike. I've only got one daughter, but I've been told that they're even more dissimilar than boys.
I think that people sometimes aren't aware of how many different things they're forced to learn. Once you realize how much you learn every day, you learn how to capitalize on that in whatever business, hobby, or passion you devote yourself to.
So, tell us a little about your latest release:
In BLOOD LINES, Shel McHenry's relationship with his estranged father comes to the forefront when a murder investigation leads to a secret buried 40 years ago in Vietnam. I think it's one of the best emotionally driven pieces I've ever written.
How did you come up with this story?
I've had Shel's story in mind ever since I created the character. I knew he would be this big raw-boned guy from West Texas that had left home straight out of high school to get away from a bad relationship with his father, whom he didn't understand. Then I set to work figuring out why that bad relationship had occurred.
I grew up during the Vietnam era, can remember watching names of the dead scroll across television every evening. I saw the family members fortunate enough to come back from that war and how it had changed them. Magazines in our school library showed pictures of US Army soldiers using flame throwers against enemy soldiers. You don't emerge from that time period without carrying some kind of emotional scars.
I knew that Tyrel was old enough to have served in Vietnam. So I went in search of the reason why it had scarred him so deeply and what had left him feeling so fearful. The biggest thing I could come up with that would cause conflict within a character like Tyrel was fearing the loss of family. I can't really talk about this much more without spoiling the story.
Tell us a little about your main character and how you developed him/her:
The relationship between fathers and sons continues to be of interest to me. If you go back and read my other works, you'll see that theme is prevalent in many of my novels.
My relationship with my father was strained. I don't remember him being around much when I was a kid. I was the oldest of five boys and drove my mother crazy because I was constantly wandering around the woods and town when I was four and five years old. She always had babies in arms and ended up reading to me every day to get me to stay home. We didn't have video game systems or even TVs much of that time. And remember, I was an ADHD kid and this was before anyone had even diagnosed what that was.
I started working for my dad at the service station he managed when I was 13. I spent every summer working with them, sometimes as much as 50 hours a week, and I think most of that was because I was trying to get close to him and figure out what he was like. He was a Korean War vet, and that was a very hard war as well. He never talked about it, but I knew he had lost a friend over there from family members. They couldn't talk about it much either because he'd never told them anything much beyond that.
When I was 22, after years of tension between my dad and my mother, he left the family. For seven years I didn't know where he was. During that time I had three children and he was never there when they were born. He saw them a couple of times after that, but he never grew close to them or to me.
All of that is strange to me. I guess when I'm writing about fathers and sons, I'm trying to understand how a relationship that is supposed to be so natural can fall apart so badly. Having my own children helped. When you have a bad relationship with a parent, I've discovered that you often heal a lot of old wounds simply by living through your children's childhoods with them.
Unfortunately, they don't stay children. The tumultuous teenage years come soon after and everything you thought you knew oftentimes gets changed. I'm not as close to my oldest two boys as I would like to be, but they're 26 years old and off discovering the world on their own. Thankfully, my daughter stays close, my nineteen-year-old still has lots of questions and needs even though he's living apart, and my 11 year old is precocious and curious about everything.
Working with all those things within my own background, I've plagued Shel McHenry with my same confusion. And I made Tyrel a father I could understand. This is their story and it's filled with action, heartache, misunderstanding, and a good ending. Early readers have told me this is one of the best books I've ever written and that the emotion echoed within them.
What did you enjoy most about writing this book? Least?
The hardest and easiest thing I wrote in this book is all the pain and confusion of the father/son relationship. I raked myself over the coals with this novel, sandpapered every nerve I had, trekked through every good and bad memory, and oftentimes was miserable and lost during the writing.
I had an agenda for Shel and Tyrel, but they often chose routes of their own. Often I was surprised by a scene turned out. But in the end I'm happy with what's on the page. I gave myself answers I could live with, but the questions and the doubt and the fears will never completely go away.
Fathers and sons will remain strange. I think back on the Bible, about how a son is supposed to go forth from his father's house to set up a life of his own. I always pictured that as a gentle progression, but maybe it isn't always. Maybe the pain and the confusion is a byproduct of the separation that makes each learn to be strong enough to survive independently.
I think it's harder on fathers because sons only leave one father. A father sometimes has to watch multiple sons leave, and it just doesn't get any easier.
This is a military NCIS series. How did you conduct the research for this project?
I do lots of reading and web crawling. I'm a sponge when it comes to research, especially if it's something I enjoy learning about. I love the CBS NCIS series with Mark Harmon. He's one of my favorite actors and I actually get to meet him in person on the Fox Studios lot when he was still filming CHICAGO HOPE.
I also watch the History Channel and Discover Channel. A lot of the programs involve military action and hardware, and that always figures into military books. TRU TV has a lot of real life criminal investigation cases on it, and much of the police work involved in a NCIS investigation plays at the same way. I got the opportunity to watch a few actual NCIS agents working investigations on some of the shows, as well as a NCIS special agent afloat documentary aboard an aircraft carrier.
I do a lot of research on military, police investigation, and politics to write these books.
Do you have any favorite research sites or books that you refer to over and over?
Not really. I approach each book on its own and try to dig up new information each time. Readers often tend to be information junkies and trivia lovers. No matter how entertaining a story and characters may be, most readers still want to feel like they've learned something by the time they turn the final page of a book.
One of the things I do encourage for writers as well as readers is to read news from international sources in addition to the coverage here in the United States. It's interesting to find the take some other country has current events in our country and on the international scene. And I discover a lot of story ideas in other countries that our news services don't even cover. Although the media claims objectivity, news has become more and more subjective over the years because of advertisers and the public they cater to.
What does your writing space look like?
My writing space is cluttered. I generally have books scattered all over the place. While I'm writing on one book, I'm also researching others as well as digging into new material that has captured my interest and may turn into more stories.
I have bookshelves all along one wall, DVDs along another, and a large L-shaped desk that supports my desktop computer as well as my laptop. Yes, I use both computers at the same time as well. I write on one, research on another, and generally multitask a lot.
Do you put yourself into your books/characters?
I constantly put myself into my books and characters. I dig into my own views, questions, and troubles as I try to make sense of them. Writing is often cathartic, sometimes painful and sometimes joyful. But you don't get one without the other.
All of the arts tend to be emotionally driven. Dancers, actors and actresses, artists, and musicians all dip into their own emotional wells for material, but I think writing is the loneliest craft anyone can pursue. None of the others of listed have to do what they do alone, and when they perform they have some kind of audience present. A writer works alone, inside his or her own head, then has to hand off the finished product to an unseen audience that may never contact him or her.
And by the time the product reaches the audience, a year or more has generally passed in the life of the writer. Even with the audience's response, that writer is deeply enmeshed in a whole new set of problems and characters, once more toiling on something no one will see for months.
What message do you hope readers gain from your novel?
That they're not alone. Everyone has problems. Everyone has fears. As I see it, one of the writer's primary jobs is to expose and remind everyone of the commonalities we share as people. The rawest, most basic language, is emotion. This is the language a gifted writer communicates in.
Over the years, several people have written into me in response to a novel they had read that I'd written. They shared their own feelings with me and reminded me that I was not alone. It's a good feeling and one that definitely should be shared.
Tell us what we have to look forward to in the future. What new projects are you working on?
At present, I'm working on new series ideas for Tyndale. I've also got a young adult series in the works.
Thanks for your time.

James Pew (1793 - 1874) was a local politician in the Camberwell area.
Born in Leith, Scotland, Pew became a clerk in the Stores Department of the Tower of London in 1807, aged 14. He took up residence with his grandfather at Camberwell, then a small village in Surrey to the south of London. In 1821 he married Catherine Harriet Mason of Camberwell.[1]
In 1827 he began a long association with the local government of Camberwell when he became parish auditor. In 1829 he became overseer of the poor and in 1830 a member of the workhouse committee. He was one of the main promoters of the Camberwell Local Act of 1833 (3 & 4 Will 4 c.xxxiii) which established a body of elected trustees to administer charitable grants to "aged parishioners", "parishioners in necessitous circumstances, not caused by their own misconduct" (the "Samaritan Gift") and for placing the children of poor parishioners at school.
In 1839 he was appointed vicar's warden, holding the post for nearly three decades. He was one of the first guardians of the poor elected under the Poor Law Amendment Act in 1835, treasurer of the Camberwell Green Coat School, member of the Camberwell Burial Board, a governor of Dulwich College, and chairman of the Camberwell Vestry.
From 1858 - 1866 he represented Camberwell as a member of the Metropolitan Board of Works.
Pew subsequently retired, and spent the winters of his last few years in Italy. He died in Asiago, in the Italian Tyrol, and was buried at Padua.

WP-FacebookConnect plugin opens a backdoor for an exploit
Facebook Connect worked for me where other plugins failed, however it opened a back door for a hacker to manipulate my database.
Just after installing and configuring the plugin, I logged into my dashboard to find no access to my posts, pages or any other administrator functionality. After much hunting, I discovered that, somehow, my administration user's privileges had been stripped. i solved it by doing the following:
1) Log into phpMyAdmin from your cPanel or use the phpMyadmin plugin.
2) Select the database for your WordPress site.
3) From the list to the right, scroll down and click on wp_usermeta
4) Find your admin user. It should be the very first one listed (meta value "your name")
5) Click the edit icon (the pencil) next to the table labeled "wp_capabilities" under the meta_key column.
6) In the "meta_value" text field, delete what is there and paste in teh following:
Click "go" and you will now have your administrator powers back.
IMMEDIATELY disable the Facebook Connect plugin. The robot that hacks your site will send its signal randomly, sometimes right after you grant yourself your powers back.
The last thing I expected was for this plugin to be causing the problem, and so naturally I went through EVERY other option possible to try and fix it, including resetting passwords, usernames, table prefixes, adding .htaccess files to wp_admin and wp_config, scanning all my files (every page, image, .css, .php and .js) for malicious code, installing dozens of security plugins and so on. Every security blog that youc an name, I read it, and I did what it said, to no avail. I then started disabling my plugins one by one. Disabling one, waiting a day to see if i got hacked again, and if I did, re-enabling it and disabling a new one.
I finally was rid of my hacker issue only after I disabled this plugin. it has been 5 days since my wordpress site has been hacked, and I can only conclude that this plugin alone opened a backdoor to my databases.
I am very sad to have to disable this plugin, for it was the only Facebook connect plugin I tried (and I tried them all) that actually allowed Facebook users to register a new account on my site. I really hope the issue is solved, but I am now too afraid to use this plugin again.
I now use Simple Facebook Connect for the "like" feature and the widgets, but it will not work as well as thsi one did.
