South Korea To Move All Students To Tablets And E-books
South Korea, the world's most wired nation, has announced that it expects to replace all paper textbooks with electronic tablets at its state-run schools by 2015.
Ever since the Kindle e-reader hopped onto the scene in 2007, the dream of completely digitalizing all educational material and cramming it into a slim and light device slowly became feasible, albeit at turtle speeds.
While schools in the U.S. are still figuring how to integrate e-books into classrooms with ongoing experiments and trials using devices like the Kindle and iPad, South Korea's Ministry of Education, Science and Technology has agreed to spend $2 billion over the next several years to provide every school kid with a free tablet and digitized versions of textbooks.
Korean students at all levels are already experimenting with state schemes that are testing the practicalities.
Since spring 2008, hundreds of elementary school students have been using digital textbooks on tablet-like, foldable Fujitsu PCs, as well as Samsung's Galaxy Tabs, and interacting with teachers online through wireless networks. South Korea has the fastest broadband connections globally, seven times the world average.
The timing couldn't be better. Electronics giants such as Apple and Samsung have really managed to cut down on the weight and size of tablets without skimping on usability.
South Korea might be a relatively small country compared to the likes of the U.S., China or Russia, but if all goes according to plan by 2015, the years after that could see all printed textbooks become extinct in schools worldwide.
Mind you, that's not necessarily a bad thing, so long as students aren't playing Angry Birds when they should be practicing their algebra.

Operatives only
Replenishes team's primary/secondary ammunition
Warlord is an ability that was released during the 17-5-2012 content update. This ability can only be equipped by Operatives.
This ability Installs a reusable warlord that allows allies to refill some of their primary and secondary ammo. Warlord is an active ability, therefore, its user would have to press certain keys to activate before being able to use it. The Warlord has 10/10 (can be used 10 times) ammo, and can only be deployed one at a time.
Warlord can be destroyed by both allies and enemies. It can also be destroyed by nearby explosives.
Warlord uses all three ability slots. This could be a slight disadvantage since the user can only use one ability, where as they can actually use 2 more if it wasn't for the Warlord's restriction.
Warlord is useful for all game modes, but more so in Quarantine Regen and Fireteam. In Quarantine Regen, the Warlord can be helpful for players to refill their ammo, such as the Minigun and RPG. In Fireteam, it is used to defend against NPC players and for refilling ammo for emergency.
Even though the Warlord can refill most weapons, it cannot refill any Operative weapons, except the Minigun and the Flamethrower. This may be because Nexon is trying to balance the game and doesn't want the Operatives to have a huge amount of ammo for certain Operative weapons (like the M32, since it's already extremely powerful, and if the Warlord can refill it, making it even more unfairly powerful).
How to use
To activate the Warlord, the player would have to press the keys ~ and 1 together to activate the ability.
To use the Warlord, one would have to look for a blue ammo box, come up to it, and hold the E key to refill their weapons.
In other cases, where [~ 1] does not work, players can go to the Abilities section in My Character to check the activation key.
- Currently, Eagle Eye, Warlord, and War Cry are the only Operative abilities.
- Due to its massive size, a player can hide a variety of plantable explosives (except for Hornet Mines), inside the warlord. This is helpful in Quarantine Regen as most Infected will melee the Warlord on sight and blow up the hidden explosives in the process and may even be killed by the detonation.

The major frontier between the mighty European Union and Ukraine – an edgy, politically unstable yet extraordinary country. The contrast between the EU funded Polish side and the dishevelled Ukrainian side is stark. Within a few hundred metres you go from newly paved roads to potholed streets dominated by Soviet era minibuses and mischievous looking taxi drivers. For anyone who's enjoyed free travel through the EU, it can be a daunting experience. Hopefully this quick guide helps.
Border crossing open 24 Hours
Poland – GMT+1
Ukraine – GMT+2
Frequent bus service to major towns on both sides
Fast Track for EU citizens into Poland
Toilets, currency exchange, shops on Ukraine sides. No ATM/Bankomat
Entry Visa
Poland – 90 days (out of 180) visa. Many countries do not require a visa. Others require a Schengen Zone visa (€60 fee).
Ukraine – 90 days (out of 180) visa. EU/Ex-USSR/USA/Canada/Japan do not require visa. All other must receive a letter of invitation and apply at Ukrainian Consulate. See further below for more info.
Medyka, on the eastern fringe of the EU lies just metres from the Ukrainian village of Shehyni. Since the end of the Cold War, this border crossing has become a major transit route.
As it is the most common crossing, it has gained a notorious reputation for delays of up to 8 hours into Poland, as well over zealous Ukrainian border guards.
Nonetheless it's used by the majority of travellers – whether they be on foot, bike or bus. Trains also pass through, but passengers are not required to disembark. Due to the strict visa checks into the European Union, coming into Poland can be an impatient nightmare for non-EU citizens. Coming into Ukraine, the delays aren't as bad. However due to the conflict in Ukraine, additional checks are carried out so do expect delays.
I got very lucky in May 2015. On crossing from Poland to Ukraine, on a weekday afternoon, there was no queue. I managed to get through within 15 minutes. It was quick through the Polish side but the Ukrainian guards were very cautious, and examined both me and my passport – probably the strictest customs officers I've come across since a trip to the USA. An English guy with me got stuck for 40 minutes – turns out they even made calls to the British Embassy to ensure he was a UK citizen (he has no idea why). So expect some delays.
Coming back into Poland, there was a large queue. I stood for a while until a 3 foot old woman started gesturing and pointing at me. For a while I figured she wanted me to smuggle in some cigarettes, however she was pointing to a EU "Fast Track" lane, where EU citizens could skip everyone else. I got through in 30 minutes, though good luck if you are not from the EU. Bring plenty of water, and anticipate the worst!
All bags are thoroughly hand checked by Polish officers – to ensure you are not smuggling copious amounts of cheap vodka and tobacco into the EU. But you are allowed take some, which I highly, highly recommend 🙂
Ukrainian Visa Situation:
Certain countries such as EU / Ex-USSR states / USA / Canada do not need to apply for a visa and receive free upon entry at the border.
Others, including Oz, NZ, China and South Africa, must apply at a Ukrainian Consulate. Visitors must have a letter of invitation from an individual or business in Ukraine. Contact hostels / hotels and they can arrange this for you when booking. Visa take up to 30 days to process. Further information for countries linked below.
Australia /New Zealand citizens – AU$157
Brazil, China, South Africa – US$85
Full list of all individual country requirements here
Continuing Your Journey
Into Ukraine
A bus goes directly to Lviv (Львів in Ukrainian) from the border town of Shehyni (Шегині). The bus leaves every hour from the small bus station. To get to the bus station walk straight and then take the first left after all the little currency exchange offices. There is no ATM so you must bring some Euros or Zloty to exchange (make sure the bills have no tears or bad creases, as they didn't accept some of my mine). There will be some taxi drivers offering rides to Lviv, but just ask for directions to the bus station and they'll show you. Remember, it's just around the corner so you will see it!
At the bus station office ask for a ticket to Lviv (Львів), as of May 2015 it cost 36 Hryvnia. Luckily there's a shop next to the office, so grab a beer (and be astounded by the price) and wait until the yellow bus arrives. Just look for "Львів" on the front. The journey takes less than 2 hours and drops you at Lviv train station. It's a 20 minute walk or 10 minute tram ride to the beautiful city centre. To get back to the border, the bus ticket office is to the right of the entrance of the train station.
Train Connections Ukraine (see the surprisingly good booking website)
Kiev (Київ) – from 110UAH (5 – 12hr)
Odessa (Одеса) -from 125UAH (12hr)
Ivano-Frankivsk (Івано-Франківськ) – from 25UAH (2 – 3hr)
Into Poland
After crossing the border, at the end of the walkway from the Polish customs office there is usually a minibus waiting. Again there's no ATM so change your UAH for Zloty at the Ukrainian exchange offices before crossing. For 2 zloty, it's a 20 minute ride to Przemyśl train / bus station.
Don't forget, Ukrainian money cannot be exchanged outside Ukraine!
Przemyśl offers regular train connections across Poland. There are also bus connections across south-west Poland, and a direct minibus to Rzeszów Airport (28zt), which is very handy for cheap Ryanair flights.
Train Connections into Poland
Rzeszów – 22zt (1 hr 20 min)
Kraków – 43zt – (5hr)
Warsaw – 54zt – (7 – 9hr)

'Twilight's' Edward And Bella Return In Mini Movies!
'Twilight' fans hold on to your seats! The characters of the beloved book and blockbuster film series are back!
Edward and Bella will rejoin the others in a new series of short films based on author Stephenie Meyer's 'Twilight' books.
Five aspiring female directors will take part in a competition to shoot the mini-movies which are to be screened on Facebook!
The project has the support of Meyer, as well as Lions Gate Entertainment who brought the blockbuster movie franchise to our screens - so you know they're set to be great!
To help budding film creators Meyer is even publishing a step-by-step handbook -'The Twilight Saga: Official Illustrated Guide', giving details of the characters personalities and insight into the plots many twist and turns.
'The Storytellers - New Creative Voices of The Twilight Saga' will no doubt be grateful for the author's top tips!
The finished films will be judged by a panel of top industry judges, including Kate Winslet, Kristen Stewart (who plays Bella in the movies), 'The Twilight Saga' director Catherine Hardwicke and Mayer herself.
"The female voice is something that has become more and more important to me as I've worked in the film industry," Meyer stated about the new project.
Here are Heart we're thrilled that we'll be able to watch the short films on our favourite social media site: "We think Facebook is a great way for us to introduce the world of 'Twilight' to a whole new audience while re-energizing existing fans," Michael Burns, vice chairman for Lions Gate, told The New York Times.
"This is the just the beginning - a template, if you will. You can probably guess what might be coming next" he added.
Eeek! All our fingers are crossed that the team behind the endeavour are planning another 'Twilight' venture.

My ex drunk texted me really late one night saying that he was in my college town and it made him think of me. I didn't respond because I was sleeping.
One week later, I texted him and told him if he was ever in my college town again, he should come over. He asked if that would be awkward and I said no, but he said he thinks it would be, but was too drunk to make that decision. I told him that was fine, I didn't need an answer in that moment, I just wanted to offer. He asked if I was still with this guy I was seeing and I said no, and he just said "oh."
Do you think there is a chance of him trying to talk to me again? I don't want to get back together with him, I just wanna talk sometimes and hook up whenever we feel like it (I don't need your opinion on whether that's a good idea or not. We've all hooked up with an ex, it happens).
I just can't tell if he is still a little bit interested in me or not. I mean, he did drunk text me on his own once and then responded when I texted him a week later, which I was unsure if he would actually answer or not. What do you think?
Most Helpful Guy
Yes but most people hook up with an ex by accident your planning it on purpose. I know you said you didn't want this but it's a bad idea and this does have to do with your question. He's not looking to hook up. If anything he's looking to reconnect so you better make damn sure your clear and tell him I DONT WANT A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU before you invite him over. Don't hint at it don't do the girl thing and leave clues. Say those exact words loud an clear so he knows where you stand before you have a big problem on your hands.00|00|0
Out of curiosity, what makes you think he is looking to reconnect?
Asking you about the guy you were seeing and him thinking it would be awkward
Hmm, I didn't think of it that way. I have no idea where he stands with his opinion of me/feelings about me. I just assumed he isn't into me at all since he is the one that broke up with me.

In any case, here are my goals and my progress...
1. Running Goals:
- Run
- Run a 10K and a
- 2:20 or below Half Marathon PR. Almost with 21:43 at Go! Half. This might be achievable, given that the Rock N Roll is flat at the Go! wasn't. We'll see.
- 27 or below 5K PR. Not having much luck with this one, I'll be glad to PR at 28. I seem to be staying in the 29 minute range, however this is good since last year I was closer to the 31-32 minute range.
2. Other Work Out Goals:
- Weights DVD 1-2x a week. Out of the 36 weeks of this year, I have only done weights 10 of these weeks. Yes, I keep a spreadsheet. Not very happy with this... but, I tend to focus so much on running.
- Look into a kettle bell DVD. I have gotten some kettlebell workouts in, YAY. I do need to get myself a heavier kettlebell, perhaps 15 or 20 lbs. The 10 lb one isn't really challenging me.
- Check out the Pilates gym (Keep saying I will, haven't yet!). I really thought I would do this during the summer, but NOPE, I sure didn't.
3. Religious Goals:
- Pray more. Pray more with kids. I am reading Jesus Calling on my Kindle, it is a daily devotional. But, I really need to pray more and with the kids. I say little prayers to God throughout the day, but I really want to start a prayer journal and set aside time to pray in the evening, or maybe even when I first wake up. I also want to say nightly prayers with the kids, I am so spotty on this... ugh.
- Take a bible study class at our church. Haven't yet. None of the times seem to work. :(
4. Make blog books:
- 2012 (Work on January-March) Um. Yeah. I am so not interested in doing this right now. Plus, the direction of my blog has changed so it is not as much as a baby journal anymore (although, I do write about my kids a lot on there still!). I know I won't get this done this year, nor do I feel I have the energy to do it. I feel quite behind on it and I'm just not sure if I have the devotion to plunge hours into getting this accomplished. I do want to look into seeing if there is a way to back up my blog... and, I do have all of their photos backed up on CDs.
- 2011 (Work on April-June)
- 2010 (Work on July-September)
- 2009 (Work on October-December)
5. Figure out how I would like to continue my blog. This is one goal that I have really nailed this year. I told myself once I grew my blog to 100 Blog Friend readers (I have additional people through feeds, Bloglovin', etc.) that I would hire a company to redesign my blog. I am really pleased with the new blog design, I feel I am making a lot of connections with other bloggers and making friendships. I also feel I have figured out where I want my blog to continue in the future.
6. Career Growth. Brian and I have had some discussions about this and I will have more to share later on about it. But, I am really excited and I hope that following my heart and what I really want to do will be right not just for me, but for our entire family overall.
7. Get into a TV show (I miss TV!!), keep up with my magazines instead of tossing them after they've been unread for 5 months.
8. Goals for the Home:
- Revamp Family Room. I did finish a gallery wall for this room... I plan to organize our DVD/game collection, sew some new couch pillows next.
- Finish up Master Bedroom decor. NO progress.
- Clean/organize finished part of basement. NO progress.
- Clean/organize unfinished part of basement. No progress.
10. Trips:
14. Online Photography Classes I want to complete:
- Our Fifth House
- Its Over Flowing
Haven't worked on these tutorials yet, but I really need to learn more sabout my camera!
15. Change my primary DR to one that is at Mercy. Need to work on this one still.

North West Is Living Out Your Disney-Themed Fantasies
The miniest Minnie Mouse.

Tiny style icon and amazing dancer North West celebrated her second birthday at Disneyland today. Parents Kim Kardashian and Kanye West staged an epic Minnie-Mouse-themed celebration, which meant that Kim and North got to wear matching lace ears. Adorbs.
As the Kardashian-Wests are wont to do, they rented out the place (well, most of it) so North could have the lay of the land. Her outfit is very practical/model-off-duty:

LONDON (Reuters) - Musical impresario Andrew Lloyd Webber is to compose Britain's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest next year in a bid to improve the country's recent miserable record in the competition.
After British entrant Andy Abraham finished joint last in the 2008 contest, Lloyd Webber will create a song for the winner of a BBC television program "Your Country Needs You" for the 2009 competition.
"In my life I've never shied away from the impossible and this looks like the biggest mission impossible of all time," said Lloyd Webber in a statement on Saturday.
The BBC program will involve six finalists chosen by Lloyd Webber and music industry professionals from both amateur and professional entries sent to the BBC website.
The final say on who Lloyd Webber will compose the song for will be made by a television viewer vote.
"I am thrilled Andrew will be championing the country's search for a star to storm this year's Eurovision," said BBC One Controller Jay Hunt.
Following the 2008 contest veteran presenter Terry Wogan blamed racism as well as politicized voting for Britain's poor showing after not one of the 22 east European countries voted for Abraham as Russia won for the first time.
Writing in The Sunday Telegraph, Wogan said: "East of the Danube, they won't be voting for a black singer any day soon."
Russian singer Dima Bilan beat 24 contestants with the rock ballad "Believe" to win in May. The show was watched by 100 million viewers.

Jan 14 (Reuters) - The National Rifle Association will produce a nightly one-hour cable talk show called "Cam & Company" for the Sportsman Channel that is due to premiere on the same day Vice President Joe Biden is expected to present national control proposals to the White House.
NRA executive Vice President and Chief Executive Wayne LaPierre said on Friday in a statement from the Sportsman Channel that the program "comes at a critical time in the history of preserving our Second Amendment."
The channel said in its statement that the show would be hosted by Cam Edwards, a gun advocate who hosts a daily three-hour online program that is simulcast on Sirius XM Satellite Radio's Patriot Channel. Edwards is scheduled to broadcast his first show on January 15 from the SHOT show (Shooting, Hunting Outdoor Trade) in Las Vegas.
"Cam Edwards will bring intelligence, insight, and perspective to vital issues and complicated topics -- live, everyday -- that are being fumbled by uninformed instant experts on other broadcast and cable shows," Sportsman Channel Chief Executive Gavin Harvey said in the statement.
The program will be produced at am NRA studio in Washington, D.C., and air weekdays from 5 to 6 p.m. ET, the NRA said on its news website.
"Cam & Company" is the third NRA produced or sponsored show to appear on Sportsman Channel, which can be seen in more than 31 million homes, the channel said. The NRA also produces "Guns and Gold," in which values are set on old guns, and "3 Gun Nation," a shooting competition program.
"This kind of programming has been done before, but it usually comes in a religious guise," said Larry Gerbrandt, a former cable television executive and founder of Media Valuation Partners, which appraises entertainment and media assets. "Live video is a much better way to mobilize your base than printed flyers."
NRA spokesman Andrew Arulanandam said by telephone that the show had been planned for more than a year and was not motivated by Vice President Biden's proposals.
President Barack Obama ordered the task force headed by Biden to prepare recommendations to curb U.S. gun violence after a gunman shot and killed 20 children and six adults at a school in Newtown, Connecticut, in December.

Well, since a Google search on the term "business objects cache server" returns only one result - which is your question!!! - I am going to say that you pretty much have to contact BO support on this one.

This wikiHow teaches you how to use your Android device as a wireless internet hotspot through a Bluetooth connection.
Part 1
Enabling Your Android's Bluetooth
1Open your Android's Settings. This is a grey, gear-shaped app in the App Drawer.
2Tap Bluetooth. You'll usually find it near the top of the screen, though you may have to scroll down to find it on some Android devices.
3Slide Bluetooth right to the "On" position. This switch should turn green, signifying that your Android's Bluetooth is now active.
- You'll also see a Bluetooth symbol (ᛒ) appear in the status bar at the top of the screen.
- If the switch here is green, Bluetooth is already enabled.
Part 2
Pairing Your Android
1Enable Bluetooth for the device you wish to pair. This device could be a laptop, a tablet, or another phone. Depending on the platform, the process for enabling Bluetooth will vary:
- iPhone/Android - Open Settings, tap Bluetooth, and slide Bluetooth right to the "On" position.
- Windows - Open Settings, click Devices, click Bluetooth & other devices, and click the "Bluetooth" switch.
- Mac - Click the Apple Menu icon, click System Preferences, click Bluetooth, and click Turn Bluetooth On.
2Switch to your Android. You should still be in the Bluetooth menu; if not, navigate back to the Bluetooth menu before proceeding.
3Wait for your device's name to appear. After a moment, you should see the phone's, tablet's, or computer's name pop up in the Bluetooth menu.
- The name you'll see here will vary, but you can expect to see some variation of the device's manufacturer, product name, and/or serial number.
4Tap the device's name. Doing so will begin the pairing process.
- If you don't see the device's name, turn off and then on again its Bluetooth.
5Verify the code when prompted, then tap Pair (Windows only). If the code displayed on your Android matches the one on your Windows device, it's safe to tap Pair.
- Perform this step quickly, or the pairing will fail and you'll have to try again.
- If pairing a Mac, you may first have to tap Accept before the pairing will complete.
6Wait for your device to connect to your Android. Once the connection is successful, the device will show up in your Android's Bluetooth menu and vice versa.
Part 3
Enabling Bluetooth Tethering
1Tap the "Back" button. It's in the top-left corner of your Android's screen.
2Tap More. This option is below the "WIRELESS & NETWORKS" heading near the top of the Settings menu.
3Tap Tethering & portable hotspot. It's an option in the More section of the "WIRELESS & NETWORKS" heading.
4Slide Bluetooth tethering right to the "On" position. This switch, which is near the bottom of the list of options in this menu, will turn green.
5Set up your other device's Bluetooth network. Since most devices default to receiving Internet through a wireless adapter, you'll need to enable tethering on your other device to begin using your Android's Bluetooth to connect to the Internet. To do so:
- Android - Tap your Android's name, then tap the Internet Access box.
- Windows - Right-click the Android's name, select Connect using, and click Access Point.
- Mac - Click the phone's name, click the settings gear at the bottom of the window, and click Connect to Network.
- On iPhone, the connection should automatically be enabled as long as Wi-Fi is turned off or otherwise unavailable.
6Test your Internet connection. As long as your connected device is properly tethered to your Android, you should now be able to use the Internet on your connected device.
Community Q&A
Why does it keep saying "settings has stopped"?wikiHow ContributorSometimes, especially when tethering via Bluetooth, settings can crash because 98% of the processing power is going toward three things: (1) staying connected to Bluetooth, (2) transferring data between the two devices, and (3) converting that data into something that you can read. So sometimes, Settings will close down because it does not have enough processing power to keep running.
Does tethering through Bluetooth take data?wikiHow ContributorYes, because if you want to tether, you use data when you do so. but Bluetooth itself is not data.
Should Bluetooth tethering be turned on?wikiHow ContributorOnly if you need to access the Internet through a Bluetooth connection to another device that has a Internet connection.
Why do we want to tether?wikiHow ContributorTo share our internet connection with a device that does not have internet access.
Unanswered Questions

If this question (or a similar one) is answered twice in this section, please click here to let us know.
- If you have an available Wi-Fi connection, your phone and/or other device will likely prioritize that connection over a Bluetooth one.
- Your phone and computer must be within a few feet of one another for Bluetooth tethering to work ideally.
- Tethering via Bluetooth will result in much slower load times.
- Make sure you're aware of your carrier's data policy before tethering, since tethering can result in extra charges.

Public Stages; Inaugurals
By Frank Rich
Published: January 17, 1993
Some months after my mother had been killed in a car crash, I found myself in the dark, cramped confines of a storage room in an industrial suburb of Washington. Outside it was one of those humid, blazingly sunny days when the capital, deserted by its vacationing lawmakers, can still seem like the sleepy provincial Southern town of the Eisenhower 50's of my childhood. But this dank cell in northern Virginia, in a low, windowless building full of identical padlocked rooms with plywood walls and concrete floors, belonged not to a quaint old Washington but to the anonymous American sprawl of the Reagan-Bush 80's. The storage room looked just like the one where the first dismembered corpse is found in "The Silence of the Lambs."
The only remains I found, however, were those of my youth. My mother had deposited my childhood things here in a couple of battered trunks when she had moved out of our old house a few years back. Now, unexpectedly, some of her youthful belongings had been brought here too, a consequence of her swift and violent death. Our childhoods lay side by side in an opaque gloom that the fluorescent bulb above could hardly dispel.
I was in a hurry. I wanted to take what was worth saving and get back home to New York. I shoveled my belongings in suitcases: school projects, snapshots, Playbills, stray letters that my mother had carefully saved for reasons I would now never know for sure.
In one manila file folder, buried under a stamp album, was a forgotten treasure, three mint souvenirs of the John Kennedy Inauguration of Jan. 20, 1961: a red, white and blue Official Inaugural Program, a gold-covered Life magazine devoted to "Inaugural Spectacle," and a gold-tasseled program for the Inaugural Gala at the National Guard Armory on Thursday, Jan. 19 at 8:45 P.M. Meticulously stapled to the program -- by me, no doubt -- was a ticket stub for Box 42, Seat 3.
That had been my mother's seat. Touching the ticket, I remembered how she and my stepfather, their car tires emboldened by chains and their appetite for event voracious, had miraculously gotten to that show, whose curtain time was delayed two hours by the most notorious Washington snowstorm of the century. My mother had regaled me with stories the next morning -- of Justice Douglas (or was it Earl Warren?) having to hitchhike to the armory in a milk truck, of Ethel Merman (even though we all knew she was a Republican) singing "Everything's Coming Up Roses," of Leonard Bernstein (a heartthrob for all Jewish mothers of the time) conducting the band. Leafing through the program now, I was startled to see that the other entertainers on the bill were sheer Vegas. Not just the inevitable Sinatra, who co-produced the gala with fellow Rat Packer and First Brother-in-Law Peter Lawford, but also (as the program billed them) Mr. Joey Bishop, Mr. Louis Prima and Miss Keely Smith, Miss Janet Leigh and Mr. Tony Curtis, Mr. Milton Berle.
Uncle Miltie! This was the glamorous youthful spirit of the New Frontier, the cultural fresh air that had so intoxicated us in that January 32 years ago? Is there no part of the J. F. K. legend that remains untarnished? Well, it's easy to be cynical with hindsight. At the time, people let their imaginations run wild with hope about the young President. Even the blizzard seemed a part of the Kennedy magic that was transforming the Washington landscape, and with it, the country. The new President strode so confidently into the future not even a paralyzing storm could deter him.
On Inauguration Day itself, the snow had finally stopped but the cold remained. With my father, I went to an office above the parade route to watch the swearing-in on TV, then the parade from a window. The light reflected from the snowdrifts was blinding. "I'm not having a good light here at all," said the aged Robert Frost from the TV, struggling with the glare and the harsh wind while trying to read his inaugural poem. "I can't see in this light."
It was easy to see the President from our warm perch as he passed by in his open limousine sometime later. The image is saturated with color in my memory, like an old 8-millimeter home movie; I particularly recall the surprisingly rich chestnut of Kennedy's hair. Or is that really what I am remembering? Now it is hard to disentangle my mental footage of the hopeful inaugural parade from the Zapruder film depicting that other motorcade in which the President's brains were blown out, abruptly changing Washington again.
I finished packing and went out into the fading sunlight of the vacant summer afternoon. On this day in 1992, young Bill Clinton was a probable Presidential candidate but an unlikely President. Nor did it seem conceivable that this more jaded Washington, fattened by another long spell of elderly Republican rule, was about to repeat its dramatic transformation of 1961.
But had change been so apparent the summer before the 1960 election, either? Along with my Kennedy souvenirs, I had found Kefauver, Johnson and Nixon buttons, vivid reminders of that equally fractious and unpredictable campaign. They seemed so familiar to me it was hard to fathom that I had only been 11, a little younger than my oldest son, in 1960. Now I was 43, Kennedy's age at his Inauguration.
My family had moved into Washington from the suburbs just before 1960. While unpacking some boxes back then, my mother pulled out her own childhood scrapbook, of the trip she had taken from Washington to New York at age 13 to the 1939 World's Fair. She described the wonders while lovingly turning the pages crowded with old sugar packets and menus and ticket stubs. She drank lemonade at the French Pavilion, watched Gypsy Rose Lee do a striptease and stepped into a fabulous technological future.
In the storage room, I had pocketed the one piece of her prized collection she had given me then: a tiny button, mixed in with my political buttons, showing the World's Fair symbol, the Trylon and Perisphere, with the legend "I Was Here."
My mother's scrapbook was nowhere to be found now. But I still picture her sitting beside me in the old house with it perched on her lap, still hear her voice grow girlishly light while she recounted the formative adventure of her childhood. "It was at the World's Fair," my mother told me as she reached the final page, "that I started to believe that absolutely anything is possible."

It's the best love story on television.
Not Homer and Marge. Not that cute married couple on "Medium." Not the HBO polygamists.
It's Denny Crane and Alan Shore in the ABC Tuesday night hit "Boston Legal."
Each episode of the two-year-old dramedy, a spinoff of ABC's "The Practice," ends with lawyers Crane (played by William Shatner) and Shore (James Spader) relaxing on the high-rise balcony of their Boston firm of Crane Poole & Schmidt, recounting their day and their lives thus far.
Sometimes, the two puff cigars. Sometimes, they enjoy a Scotch. Always, they express their love to one another in ways circumspect, confounding, tough, tender and touching. One exchange, in which the characters confessed their many faults to each other, created a signature moment for the pair:
Denny: I'm unfaithful.
Alan: Never to me.
Really, that's all a guy can ask.
Denny Crane and Alan Shore are perhaps the best example of postmodern, heterosexual man-love -- call it a male-la tionship -- currently available in the mass media. It has been a long time coming. We modern men have had to tame our Eternal Caveman, shake off centuries of reflexive homophobia, escape the mythopoetic feely-thicket of Iron Johnliness in order to finally -- finally -- get to this place.
In the relationship between Denny and Alan we find refuge, permission and proxy. Here and now -- "Boston Legal" tells us -- modern hetero-man can freely love fellow hetero-man without worrying about whether it makes us gay, without spending time thinking and talking about our feelings (gaack!) and without expressing affection solely through physical competition, like pickup basketball.
The show, by producer David E. Kelley ("The Practice," "Ally McBeal," "Boston Public"), was created as an ensemble cast. But Shatner and Spader quickly took it over simply by force of personality. Their first balcony scene, for instance, was just one more shot in the show's early episodes, drawn up as counterpoint to the many scenes in the courtroom and the office.
But viewer reaction to the loving repartee between Shatner and Spader was so positive that Kelley and the show's writers quickly made a balcony scene the capstone of each episode. The show, which enters its third season Tuesday, has produced solid ratings. Last season, "Boston Legal" averaged about 10 million viewers per episode, finishing second in the 10 p.m. Tuesday time slot to NBC's "Law & Order: SVU."
Buoyed by such viewer feedback, the writers began to pair up the two in other, off-balcony situations, taking the male-bonding relationship to unexpected but natural-feeling levels of closeness: a fishing trip that included a spooning scene in bed, dressing as matching flamingos at a party, and being tied together with a rope as Denny kept Alan from hurting himself while sleepwalking during an attack of night terrors.
Shatner's Denny is a lawyer-celebrity, a reflexive libertine five times married, a gun-toter (in the office) and quite possibly an Alzheimer's sufferer devoted to making money and the priapic rush of winning cases. Spader's Alan is a hedonist intellectual, always ready with a Wildean riposte, self-destructive and self-loathing, willing to hire thugs to rough up a foe and hating himself for doing it. They are both wounded, deeply flawed characters, at once lovable, pitiable and noble in their majestic ruin.
Yet, like many successful couples, they are opposites in some ways. Alan has a bleeding heart where Denny is a troglodyte right-winger. Alan lays open his weaknesses while Denny tries to suppress them. And there is a 30-year age gap between the two.
Perhaps it's not surprising that the person who pens most of Shatner and Spader's lines is a woman: Janet Leahy is the executive producer and a writer for "Boston Legal."
"I think of their relationship as [their] having sex with women, but they're married to each other," she says.
Indeed, the pair fit the archetype of many fictional husband-wife teams -- Ralph and Alice Kramden, Archie and Edith Bunker, George and Louise Jefferson, Rob and Laura Petrie -- bantering, picking at each other, being disappointed in each other, reveling in each other's accomplishments. The pair also draw on the lineage of Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, Oscar and Felix, Butch and Sundance and other teams that might as well have been married.
Denny Crane and Alan Shore, however, create intimacies never reached by their slapstick forebears. (HBO watchers will be familiar with this brand of dramatic man-love from last season's "Rome" and the soldier-suitors Titus Pullo and Lucius Vorenus.)
In interviews, Shatner and Spader talk about how the other actor smells, so close is their on-screen contact.
"It's a very funny friendship that Bill and I have and that Denny and Alan have; it really is," Spader says from California. "We go together."
Shatner and Spader had never worked together before the show. Because Spader's academic parents forbade most television watching, he had only a glancing awareness of Shatner's legendary "Star Trek" past. On the phone, between "Boston Legal" takes at a studio in Manhattan Beach, Spader sounds like a looser version of his controlled Alan Shore character, laughing easily and enthusiastically engaging in the conversation.
Like their characters, Shatner and Spader are quite different. Their "Boston Legal" co-star Rene Auberjonois says that if Shatner's approach to a scene doesn't work, he'll try something else, unfazed by failure. Spader prepares meticulously for each scene, Auberjonois says, and makes laserlike choices.
"I think that when two people are so different, they have an understanding of that and they tend to forgive everything" the other does, Spader says. "If you start from the premise that you're dichotomous in so many ways, you forgive. Bill and I are like that and Alan and Denny are like that."
What distinguishes the characters' friendship is their deep involvement in each other's lives. Alan often acts as Denny's conscience, and there's a willingness to rebuke each other when necessary, or absorb the other's anger, that's more commonly found in a marriage.
"They even enjoy how they drive each other mad; somehow, they feed off of it," Spader says. "They are exactly what they need, whether it be challenging and provoking the other person or supporting and nurturing them."
Shatner wonders if the relationship might be "atavistic."
"The prehistoric men would go out and try and find a mastodon with their spears and their rocks," Shatner begins, also speaking from California during a break in filming. (We've interviewed the man before, and so recognize a good quote is unspooling and stick with him.) "So Bob went left and George went right and Fred decided to go in the middle and stick the spear in the stomach of the mastodon and George had to help save Fred. It became a bonding thing that is not seen too much in our civilization today," Shatner continues, "but is seen a great deal in the military where combat becomes the activity of the moment.
"It's possible to rationalize this relationship [on "Boston Legal"] in the war of life that is being faced by the lawyers in this firm," Shatner concludes. "They are bonded in that kind of unity."
And theirs isn't boy-bonding. "Animal House," "Stripes," "Wedding Crashers," "Caddyshack" and so on feature the high jinks of adult adolescents, charming in their ramshacklery, irresistible to women with their "Who's your buddy?" ways.
Denny Crane and Alan Shore are men, secure in their masculinity, bound together like Capt. Jack Aubrey and Dr. Stephen Maturin of Patrick O'Brian's "Master and Commander" books. Where Denny and Alan have their balcony, Jack and Stephen had their violin-and-cello duos; the two as close and harmonious as a dyad.
Bruno Heller calls such paired relationships "wish fulfillment" for male viewers.
Heller is the executive producer and co-creator of "Rome." Set in the time of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, the HBO series pivots on the aforementioned relationship of two Roman soldiers played by Kevin McKidd and Ray Stevenson.
"In real life, those kinds of intimate, close, loving relationships [between men] are very rare," Heller says from Rome, where he is shooting the show's upcoming season, set to begin in January. "Romantic love is relatively easy to find in the world. But to find a friend of that sort you can rely on through thick and thin . . . is rare. It's a great charge for men in watching that kind of friendship blossom. It's something that a lot of men wish they had but don't have with each other."
Stevenson's Titus Pullo is a soulful brute, a saturnalian legionnaire of huge appetites for wine, women and blood, who admires and is fiercely loyal to his friend. McKidd's Lucius Vorenus is Pullo's commanding officer, a professional soldier and honorable family man, at once appalled by Pullo's ways yet protective of him. In one scene, Vorenus defies Caesar and leaps into a gladiators' ring to save the condemned Pullo's life just as he is about to be killed.
Heller says it's refreshing to see such male-on-male hetero love affairs being well received by audiences. In the past, he says, such male bonding was acceptable only among groups of men, such as on a sports team or in movies like "Diner."
"I think the true test would be to see an on-screen relationship between a gay man and a straight man," Heller says. "As with a relationship between a man and a woman, it would be nice to see that unresolved sexual tension played out in [a] male relationship . . . and have it just be a part of the grit of the relationship."
On-screen chemistry between characters isn't necessarily an indication of real-life affection between actors. But in this case, it might be.
Shatner took Spader and his girlfriend to a tennis tournament over the summer. Even better, Shatner -- a longtime breeder of quarter horses -- recently bought an American saddle horse and named it Alan Shore.
"It's the perfect horse for the Alan Shore character," Shatner says. "He's puffed-up, he's marvelous, he's jaunty but very steady."
Shatner says that he's looking for a horse to name "Denny Crane."
Which naturally makes us ask: What kind of horse would that be?
Shatner laughs. "A sweaty, wild-gaited horse who doesn't know whether to perform or sire," he says.
If this were a different era, someone would no doubt take this opportunity to weigh in with some Freudian, homo-equino claptrap. Thankfully, we're past that.

Samsung to call its upcoming phablets 'Galaxy Mega', 5.8" and 6.3" variants in the works
The fact that these guys will be separate from the Note series is "proven" by their rumored model numbers, which are said to be GT-I9152 for the 5.8" one and GT-I9200 for the 6.3" one. While all this sounds believable, it doesn't really make sense to us, because handsets with such enormous screens would make for perfect devices for hand-writing. Then again, Samsung might decide to include an S Pen with them anyway, though that would make it a bit weird to keep the Galaxy Note series as a separate line. Unfortunately, the source doesn't provide any details as to what's expected to happen with the Galaxy Note line once the Mega devices arrive.
SamMobile, which has an alright track record when it comes to Samsung-related leaks, says that Samsung plans to launch the Galaxy Mega 5.8 sometime around week 22 (May 27 - June 2) in white color, and the Galaxy Mega 6.3 - around week 25 (June 17 - June 23) in black and white colors.
As much as we'd like to believe this information, we do feel that it would be best if we consume this information with a grain of salt.

oh no!
there are more phablets coming!

4.8 was a sweet spot. so far every company this year has missed that. we need better camera(not more mp) and bigger battery.
above all a stylish device that looks like it was worth $700

The 5" S4 is slightly smaller than 4.8" S3
And HTC One is 4.8"
36. ebubekir26 (Posts: 334; Member since: 21 Dec 2012)
4.7" .
37. ph00ny (Posts: 1509; Member since: 26 May 2011)
Wait what's wrong with the 5" form factor when it's physically smaller than the 4.8" it's replacing?

I agree, i think Samsung's lineup outside of the S and Note is getting very confusing..

read the article my friend. I even read the original source from sammobile. I was just referring to the rumored 6.3 inches for the Note3. Read sammobiles article first. [+]

Galaxy Note 5 = holding a 7.5 inch slab against your face and looking like a retard. I could imagine that happening, in fact the 8 inch one that came out recently is already one example.

this is why i jumped from sinking ship of Samsung to Sony. Xperia Z :)

Just wait until sony unveil a 6.4 inch phablet. I still think anything smaller than the 7 inch screen isn't big enough as text is still quite awkward to read despite the fact I have excellent eyesight. I hope the Sony Togari has a res of 1200p at least.

Sinking ship samsung ??? I dont think samsung is sinking
29. MistB (Posts: 581; Member since: 07 Jul 2012)
Just another Sony loving Samsung hater, just jealous that Sammy is pummeling the smitherines out of a has been. I mean I personally use an Xperia T but nothing really special IMO.
27. Abbath (Posts: 99; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
MY friend bought the XZ and in all honesty it is not as impressive as I thought! It looks stylish but the screen contrast is very lacking and quite boring for a fullHD screen. Plus the camera is not as good as the HTC one, S4, or iPhone 5. Ive always hated the Sony android skin and I thought they would haven't improved but no
33. Rehankhan (Posts: 323; Member since: 24 Oct 2012)
i lol'd when he said samsung a sinking ship
dude samsung is god of android deal with it
21. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 4321; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
At this rate, people are going to have a hard time differentiating between a 7 inch phablet and a 7 inch tablet.
And this time round, people will start joking about Samsung's growth in phone size just as Apple did with the length of the iPhone (minus the features)
3. RaKithAPeiRiZ (Posts: 1488; Member since: 29 Dec 2011)
i think many will shift to the below 5" options if they continue to increase the screen size

Well, I told you this weeks ago PA.
False modesty aside - I'm really proving my self right over and over in these kind of things here.
The Exynos/Snapdragon combination in S4 due to production yield issues, the S4' size not being bigger than S3, the S4 leaked "Chinese" variant being the real one - to name the rest.
24. MistB (Posts: 581; Member since: 07 Jul 2012)
This is actually the fonblets which are low end devices aimed at the emerging markets. The note is the 5.9 inch size, looks like there won't be a 6.3 inch variant for the Note 3 :(
16. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Oh and it makes sense..kind of. In order to avoid confusion with different size variants- or even to make it sound more prominent, building on the Galaxy name - they'll scrap the Note moniker and release the Mega branding

Our story begins when Laurie Joy had an epiphany—the kind of food she put in her body mattered. As a cancer survivor who'd just endured surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation treatments, Laurie realized her body was going to be making a lot of new cells. She wanted every single one to be healthy. Little did she know, that simple but powerful idea was the seed of a new beginning.
Determined not to let another day go by without understanding how food affected her body, she and longtime friend Ann Christensen enrolled in a Nutritional Therapy Certification Program. At the same time, Laurie took "uncooking" classes on raw food. Something clicked. She headed straight to her kitchen and weeks later she was selling her homemade raw products at a nearby food Co-op in Portland, Oregon.
Soon she noticed an empty spot on the shelves. Where were the healthy savory snacks? You know, the kind of thing you'd reach for when you craved a potato chip but wanted to feel good afterwards. Before she knew it, she had developed a kale chip tossed in a tasty mixture of herbs, spices, juices, nuts, and seeds—a snack loaded with vitamins A, C, and K, not to mention plenty of minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. Ann, a business-minded CPA, tasted the magic when she stepped into Laurie's tiny kitchen, which was crammed with food dehydrators. Laurie and Ann decided to join forces. Freshly Wild Super Foods was born.
Laurie and Ann went on to make thousands of batches of kale chips, which they named Kale Joy after Laurie Joy of course, but also for the feeling these scrumptious and nutritious snacks inspire. They shared Kale Joy with friends, co-workers, neighbors, farmers, chefs, winemakers, yoginis, and parents. Local stores couldn't keep the chips in stock. Everyone wanted more, including Laurie and Ann's kids, the truest testament that they were making the ultimate veggie snack.
Today's Kale Joy is the same completely natural, handcrafted product that came from that tiny kitchen. Because we believe it's just as important to take care of the planet as it is to take care of you, each batch is carefully dehydrated using 100% renewable wind energy.
All of us at Freshly Wild Super Foods are proud/delighted/excited/happy to share this wildly crunchy, tangy, salty, and sweet snack with you. We hope you enjoy eating Kale Joy as much we enjoy making them. DIG IN, GO WILD!
—Laurie Joy and Ann

Video of the False Arrest at Santa Cruz City Council for Audio Recording on April 1
During a Special Session of the Santa Cruz City Council on April 1st, I was arrested for failing to leave when I twice replaced my recorder on the bannister between the public and City Council. I have regularly placed my ancient tape recorder there for more than two decades without incident. The railing is the best spot for an audible recording. Nonetheless Mayor Robinson termed my replacing the recorder there "a disruption" and insisted I leave the meeting or face arrest. I declined to do so, since attending (and recording) public meetings is an essential right (that needs to be exercised in order to be real)--particularly so for an alternate media person like myself. These rights are guaranteed on paper at least under the Brown (Public Meetings) Act. Video-journalist Brent Adams posted a video on you-tube which documents much of the action. I discuss it further below.
Brent's video can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUNz646cnoM .
The Mayor's action was a false arrest in that my behavior not only didn't disrupt the meeting but was protected under constitutional rights supposedly guaranteed by the state and federal constitutions. Obviously by any reasonable standard, my recording activity was not disruptive. Having Lynn Robinson say so does not make it so. In fact, filing a report on that basis is a criminal act, since the report is a false one. Both Deputy-Chief Martinez and Sgt. Bush refused to accept my citizen's arrest of Mayor Robinson for making the false report.
Martinez said it was "her meeting". However the 9th Circuit Court has ruled (in the earlier mock-Nazi salute case) that such a disruption has to be real. Refusing to follow an unconstitutional restriction (actually created to impact me) is not "disruptive" unless it actually disrupts.
Both Deputy-Chief Martinez and Sgt. Bush, initially saw no disruption in the activity I engaged in until directed to remove the recorder by the Mayor.
A legislative body may not prohibit any person attending an open meeting from video recording, audio recording or broadcasting the proceedings, absent a reasonable finding that such activity would constitute a disruption of the proceedings. (§§ 54953.5, 54953.6; Nevens v. City of Chino (1965) 233 Cal.App.2d 775, 779; see also § 6091.)
Under the Act, the public is guaranteed the right to provide testimony at any regular or special meeting on any subject which will be considered by the legislative body before or during its consideration of the item. (§ 54954.3(a).) In 80 Ops.Cal.Atty.Gen. 247, 248-252 (1997),
The rule cited by Robinson reads "Hand-held recording devices may not be left unattended at the speaker's podium or elsewhere in the Council Chambers."
Under this rule, if taken literally one would have to sit next to one's recorder at all times wherever it was placed. If one left the room to use the bathroom or to interview someone else it would be a "disruption" to leave the machine "unattended" to record the meeting.
On April 1st, Robinson--under her own rules by excluding me--denied me the opportunity to record the proceedings since leaving the tape recorder anywhere in the room "unattended" would be a "disruption". I was also denied the chance to speak at the meeting and report on it for my twice-weekly Free Radio Santa Cruz show.
AFterwards I asked Bren Lehr, the City Administrator/Clerk, for copies of any complaints on e-mail or hard copy as well as any discussion between Council members and staff regarding the presence of the offending tape recorder. Lehr reported that there was only one complaint she had heard of and nothing in writing from any members of the public.
The rule seems to have been activated either as part of the Mayor's confusion of repression with order or perhaps a particular disliking for having me visibly present at City Council meetings. Though video recordings are available days afterward and streaming happens during the meeting, I think it important if not essential that individuals and particularly reporters be able to make their own recordings with their own equipment without harassment. There's actually a provision of the Brown Act that provides that even during a real disruption where the chambers are cleared, reporters unconnected with the disruption must be allowed to remain. This is the first time in over the 27 years that I have faced this bizarre kind of arrest for "criminal recorder placement".
I've described this incident in more detail at https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2014/04/02/18753441.php ("Norse Incident Sounds Alarm").
I am slated to be arraigned Tuesday morning May 6th sometime after 8:30 AM in Santa Cruz Superior Court. I face a possible maximum penalty of $1000 fine and one year in jail. I'll be checking on Monday afternoon to see if D.A. Bob Lee intends to back up this blatant denial of basic rights.
I may be in good company because the morning of May 6th is also the date for the bogus arraignment of numerous UCSC students, activists, and union supporters arrested for striking up at UCSC around the same time.
To clarify, Brent kindly made, uploaded, and provided the video of the incident. I wrote the entire article. The views above are mine and do not necessarily represent his.
The audio for the incident can be heard at http://www.radiolibre.org/brb/brb140403.mp3 (about 15 minutes into the audio file).

You knew it was a violation of the rules, you chose to break the rules. What's the problem? You didn't even bother showing up to put the recorder there before the meeting started (not that it would have been any less a violation of the rules.)
Previously you stated that the recorder HAS to be at that particular spot in order to properly record. Yet Brent's camera/recorder was at the back of the room and the audio was effectively recorded. Thus your purported reason doesn't stand up.
Sunday May 4th, 2014 8:05 PM
Doug E and the Observer commenting here really, really hate alternative journalists like Robert Norse... Why? These jerks would feel right at home in some Latin American dictatorship where there are no press freedoms.
Robert Norse, keep it up. You got support from real freedom-loving people.
Monday May 5th, 2014 4:29 PM
I received a return call from assistant district attorney David Sherman that he'd be continuing to review the case and not arraigning me tomorrow. He wants to review the Brown Act and find out how other legislative bodies have addressed this issue. I encouraged him to review the video and audio on line.
The D.A.'s office still has a year to file charges, so the matter is definitely not resolved.
Nor is it clear what the Mayor will do when I attempt to record the next Council meeting.
I continue to believe that we must not kowtow to these politically-motivated, high-handed, and abusive actions by those in political power.
As for Observer's comments, a violation of "a rule" does not constitute a disruption--according to the 9th Circuit Court decision--unless the violation actually disrupts. I didn't disrupt--the Mayor did. Brent's video equipment wasn't trying to record people at the podium, nor is my equipment in any way equivalent to his.
When Robinson blames me for ignoring her unconstitutional (and illegal) demand from the Mayor is pretty cheeky. When she goes so far as to exclude me from the meeting, and then seeks to prosecute me with a false "citizen's arrest", it reaches new levels of bizarre farce. What's not funny is that these actions attack not just on me but anyone questioning her authority and "rules".
It particularly threatens alternative media. Shutting down recording at a public meeting seems to be a pretty obvious abuse of authority and a dangerous one.
Monday May 5th, 2014 10:07 PM
Funny thing is, the jury gave the 9th Circuit the middle finger just like the Supreme Court does on a regular basis, in the "disruption" case. So the appellate court ruling ended having the value of used toilet paper. Or, in the alternative Robert Norse read way too much into the ruling. I'll leave it to the reader to decide which one it was.
Tuesday May 6th, 2014 12:26 AM
Actually the jury had no idea what the opinion of the 9th Circuit's en banc panel was, nor of previous decisions. That panel and previousl panels affirmed that "disruption" means "disruption" not something Council members don't like or have decided "is against the rules". The fact that a jury did not award money in no way vitiates the standard that legislative bodies throughout the state need to follow. It simply means that in my case, they did not agree that damage was done.
In my view (and I believe this is the court's as well), something disrupts which actually stops the progress of the meeting.
Real disruptions might include continuing to talk off-topic or over-time, interfering with someone else's right to speak, making a loud sustained noise which interrupts the Council meeting, engaging in loud conversation in a sustained manner in the audience which interferes with the audience's ability to hear the proceeding.
Obviously placing an audio recorder doesn't meet this standard. The fact that it's been don for 25 years without incident or comment makes the arrest even more egregious. The fact that this particular location is the most obvious spot for a hand-held recorder to be placed to audibly record the proceeding suggests the Council may be more interested in targeting a particular person with a particular method of recording.
The City Clerk's office answered a renewed public records act request yesterday. It confirmed that the Council staff has no records indicating any complaints about the placement of the recorder. Even if they did, of course, the right to record a public meeting (particularly for a radio broadcaster) is a serous right to infringe or abridge.
Mayor Robinson is in error and cannot rely on "rules" voted by the Council.
Tuesday May 6th, 2014 10:33 AM
When Robert tried to put his audio recorder out there again today, I hope they confiscate his recorder as evidence of his crime.
Tuesday Aug 5th, 2014 11:10 PM
Mayor Robinson initially threatened me through the City Clerk/Administrator Bren Lehr with obstruction of my audio recording in mid-December. She then apparently thought better of it and left me unmolested from January through March. However, she had the Council pass the same irrational and repressive policy in February as part of a reaffirmed set of Council "decorum" rules. Specifically the sentence " No audio/visual recording devices may be left unattended at the speaker's lectern or elsewhere in the Council Chambers." was retained.
A month later, I wrote her the following e-mail:
From: rnorse3 [at] hotmail.com
To: lrobinson [at] cityofsantacruz.com
Subject: Audio Recording
Date: Sat, 29 Mar 2014 04:34:23 -0700
Dear Lynn:
I appreciate your apparent de facto willingness to respect the rights of alternate media (and individual community members) to audio record in the traditional manner without harassment which we discussed in e-mails last winter. [by not carrying out her threat to block my audio recording via the rule]
Nonetheless the strange and counter-intuitive restrictions regarding "unattended recording devices" are still a part of the decorum rules. Let me know when you will be acting to correct this bizarre disconnect between stated and actual policy.
Since I was advised by the City Clerk in January that there was no assurance you or some future mayor might not unilaterally decide to use this provision to unconstitutionally halt audio recording in violation of the Constitution and the Brown Act, I'd appreciate your changing the rule to guard against this kind of abuse.
Until such time as a formal change is made, have I your assurance that you will engage in no such interference during your mayorship and will oppose it if anyone else tries it while you are on the Council?
Thanks, Robert
I received no reply to this letter. Three days later she had me arrested for "disrupting a public meeting" when I replaced my recorder in its traditional spot and walked back to my seat.

Xenoblade wasn't nearly so chaotic. It played out more like an MMO, and it seemed you had considerably more control over your friendly AIs.
Speaking of which, that's a game I need to get around to beating one of these days.
The combat reminds me of Xenoblade Chronicles' (not that it invented this style of gameplay, but it's the one I played the most that features it), which may seem messy at first, but there is quite a bit of strategy there, especially on the tougher fights.
I may get this when it's on a discount.
Man, now I want to replay FFVI...

A one-player MMORGP, yup. Well, some of the later fights could get crazy, but yeah, I always found it for the most part mostly maneagable.
ProTip: want to finish it? Don't go doing every sidequest there is....(I did that).
Really awesome game. Wish it had come out for the PS3.
SqEnix partnered with Nvidia to deliver a PC tech demo with high quality FFXV assets running on GTX1080Ti. Another sign that a high grade PC port is inevitable.
Apparently, yes! It'll be added as a free addition, at some point.
Ok, the physics aren't super-impressive, particularly the collision with the rock there looks a tad unconvincing, but it's still a huge improvement over the regular on-rails Regalia. Very nice.
PC port now or GTFO

Episode Gladiolus is out tomorrow.
"The update that aims to fix the game's controversial Chapter 13" reads the youtube description. I actually played through most of Chapter 13 last weekend, and while I greatly enjoyed it I can also see why some people wouldn't. It deviates sharply from how the game has played up until that point, removing your teammates and the open world in favor of having Noctis by himself, hunting keycards to unlock doors in tight, linear, spooky corridors, taking on enemies with the help of new powers. It almost feels like it turns into a Resident Evil game or something for that one chapter.
Ok, done with FFXV. It was pretty good! Dunno what to say about it. I enjoyed my trip with the boys, though no part of it really amazed me or anything, but then again there were very few parts I disliked as well. So yeah, good stuff.

-This will contain spoilers-
Hey guys, it's Eugene here. I've never done a review before, but I feel like I could do one now, considering how much hate this episode is getting. Personally, I liked this episode. The first 20 minutes of it all seemed inconsequential when it came to the others and their safety, but I soon realized that it all had purpose. For me, as a less than ecstatic fanatic of Daryl, I thought this was a great episode for him. We've seen him crack before at people such as Merle and Carol, but we've never seen it to this extent. For the most part, it was same old same old "You're pushing away your feelings" cliche. However, it's when he said that he regrets not doing something during the prison attack that we finally got to see some character development in him. We come to realize that not only do we think Daryl was a superman, but so did everyone at the prison. So much so that he began to believe that he could save everyone. But the prison attack was a big wake up call to that idea, and we get to see the fallout of it. Beth didn't have much development other than being her rebellious teenage self, but the relationship between Daryl and Beth did a complete 180 to the point where they could be considered each other's love interests now.
Sure, the action was a bit lackluster, but I say get the fuck over it. I give this episode an 8/10.

Indian scientists object to export of human biological material for researchBMJ 2002; 325 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.325.7371.990/b (Published 02 November 2002) Cite this as: BMJ 2002;325:990

A British and German genetic study that analysed material from people in India's southern state of Kerala has renewed a debate on the need to regulate the flow of human biological material from India.
Indian scientists are accusing the foreign researchers of violating national guidelines. They say the case also highlights the government's inability to enforce the guidelines introduced in the late 1990s that permit export of biological material for research only with approval from the health ministry.
The study, by molecular biologists at the University of Cambridge and three German universities, had analysed …

No one and I mean no one should be shocked by this. Minnesota is now experiencing a resurgence of Tuberculosis… a disease we thought was eradicated. That is until Obama started bringing in unvetted refugees from third world hellholes in the Middle East. If Hillary Clinton gets her way, the number of refugees will skyrocket by 500%. These barbarians not only bring crime with them, they bring a whole panoply of diseases as well. It's their gift to us… illness and death, along with Shariah law.
The percentage of TB cases in Minnesota is ten times higher than other states and it is thanks to Obama's Refugee Resettlement Program. But wait… since he's now planting these invaders across the nation, you'll probably get to experience it too! Minnesota has had 172 cases over five years. That's the ones they know about. And with the ease of travel in the States, it is easily spread.
From Breitbart News:
The data you are referring to, showing 50% of the 593 foreign born residents of Minnesota diagnosed with TB arrived as refugees, represents years 2010 – 2014. The majority of those refugees actually developed TB disease after being in Minnesota at least five years, and many had been in the US at least 10 years, so these are not new arrivals to the US.
The presence of other medical conditions is the chief risk factor for the activation of TB disease in a person with latent infection (and remember, a third of the world has latent TB infection). These conditions include diabetes, cancers, immune suppressing medications, and renal disease. These are conditions common with the American diet and lifestyle, and new risk factors for these refugee populations. Tuberculosis can be treated with antibiotics.
Often times the reason that Minnesota reports TB and other infectious diseases at higher rates than other states is because we have a stellar system of surveillance and screening. From 2010 – 2014, in addition to their overseas screening, 99% of our primary refugee arrivals completed an additional health screening within 90-days of their arrival in the US. If you look at national surveillance data in 2014, states with a lower percentage of foreign-born cases arriving as refugees often have a higher percentage of unknown or missing data.
One reason for the sudden uptick in TB case in the US is the increased birth rate of our foreign-born population since 2015. It is the first time in 23 years that the number of TB cases has increased.
This is another reason that people should be more aggressively vetted and screened before coming into America. We used to do that until the Marxists took control of things. There should be mandatory quarantine delays to prevent an outbreak of disease. This would also allow government officials to further investigate the backgrounds and criminal history of these immigrants seeking citizenship. It's common sense and a matter of survival… and yet another reason not to elect Hillary Clinton.
