The Lincoln Coffee Table
Our new Lincoln Coffee Table brings an elegantly refined industrial look to any living space. Married to a steel base, the contrast in materiality and thickness works perfectly, hand in hand. We've finished the steel base in a statuary bronze finish which pops the natural brown knots and other features also found in the beautiful beetle kill pine. Our non-toxic, Greenguard-certified, clear varnish protects and resists coffee rings and other spills. It is the perfect statement piece for your home.
Due to the nature of our reclaimed wood, each piece will vary slightly and may include knots, cracks and other markings. These are unique characteristics of a storied past, and should not be viewed as defects.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ACLU Encouraged by U.N. Questioning of U.S. Government

ACLU Encouraged by U.N. Questioning of U.S. Government
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND — A United Nations human rights body expressed grave concerns today about the record of human rights in the United States. The American Civil Liberties Union with a delegation of 10 and working with a broad coalition of other groups is in Geneva to monitor the examination of the United States the U.N. Human Rights Committee (HRC).
In a two-day session that concluded today, the committee members pressured the United States for answers on the following issues:
- The sentencing of children to life without parole and the disproportionate incarceration of minorities;
- The militarization of the border;
- The failure to prevent human rights violations and respond in a non discriminatory manner to Hurricane Katrina;
- The failure to end racial profiling practices, specifically the profiling of South Asian convenience store employees in Georgia;
- Warrantless spying on ordinary Americans;
- The abuse of women in prison; and
- The indefinite detention, rendition and torture of non-citizens.
"The U.S. should be ashamed of itself," said Ann Beeson, Director of the ACLU's Human Rights Program. "The review by the Human Rights Committee was a stark and all too accurate condemnation of the state of rights in America."
During the questioning, several committee members took the time to make observations about the government's report. Rajsoomer Lalah, from Mauritius, suggested that the NSA spying program was "creating a state of siege." Sir Nigel Rodley, from the United Kingdom, expressed "astonishment" and "dismay" over reports of detention and torture by the U.S. government. Hipolito Solari Yrigoyen, from Argentina, asked about the "militarization" of the U.S. border with Mexico, whether National Guard members sent to patrol the border would be trained to respect human rights and what the government intends to do with the 11 million illegal immigrants currently in the United States.
The HRC's review is based on the official U.S. report that was submitted last October, more than seven years after it was due. The United States' appearance before the committee is its second since ratification and the first since the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the beginning of the "global war on terror."
The ACLU's Shadow Report to the HRC, Dimming the Beacon of Freedom: U.S. Violations of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, is available online at www.aclu.org/intlhumanrights/gen/25924pub20060620.html

Starbucks at loggerheads with the taxman
Starbucks is getting some press today as a company that is having to justify transfer pricing. As I've mentioned several times on this blog as well as in class, the tax authorities around the globe are increasingly starved for revenue and this type of thing, founded or not, is sure to continue. There is just too much wiggle room for companies to use transfer pricing methods to escape taxes and in so many cases without an external market it can be impossible to defend a particular price regardless of how vaild/realistic it might be.
In a note to its annual British accounts for the year ending September 27, 2009, Starbucks said: "The company is in discussion with HM Revenue & Customs regarding its transfer pricing policy."

Ever since Barack Obama signed the Affordable Care Act in 2010, the Republicans in Congress have tried to repeal it. This week's vote was their 50th attempt.
And yet, despite their unyielding opposition, their earnestness rings hollow to most Americans for the simple reason that they have not offered an alternative path to health care reform. Even the party's own strategists have chastised it for its negative approach, for failing to offer a plan of their own, for obstructing rather than leading.
Finally, their pleas have been answered — in the form of the Patient Choice, Affordability, Responsibility, and Empowerment Act, or "PCEREA," sponsored by Republican Sens. Orrin Hatch, Tom Coburn, and Richard Burr.
At long last, we can answer the question Democrats have been asking Republicans since 2010: You got a better idea? Unfortunately, the answer is a disappointing "no."
The ACA, better known as "Obamacare," has four major provisions: a ban on price discrimination against sick people, an "individual mandate" requiring everyone to purchase health insurance or pay a fine to the IRS, tax credits for Americans who cannot afford to purchase insurance, and a Medicaid expansion for the poorest Americans who don't pay enough taxes to qualify for the tax credits.
The PCEREA does away with the first provision right off the bat. The most popular feature of Obamacare is the rule prohibiting insurers from charging different prices to different consumers based on health status. The Republicans would erase this rule, once again making insurance least affordable for the people who need it the most.
With the first provision gone, there isn't much need for the second one. Without an individual mandate, a ban on price discrimination will simply result in insurers charging high rates to everyone, driving all but the sickest consumers out of the market. Insurers can only afford to charge reasonable rates across the board if healthy people are required to buy in.

Greece should never have been allowed to join the eurozone, former German finance minister Theo Waigel said Friday, as Athens struggles to avoid bankruptcy and EU partners fear contagion.
Greece "clearly should never have joined the eurozone... the figures weren't good, The Greeks swindled and deceived" everyone, Waigel told the Phoenix television channel.
There weren't enough controls, he added in the comments which were published before being broadcast.
Greece scrapped the drachma and adopted the euro in 2001. Three years later the then ruling conservatives told Brussels that the country's budget deficit had been miscalculated for years under the socialists.
In the current situation, with riots on Greek streets and EU-IMF bailouts required to stop the country defaulting on its debts, Waigel said there was too much talk and not enough action, calling for decisions to be made "quicker and less expensively."
Germany, Europe's largest economy, is finding itself paying the biggest proportion of multi-billion euro bailout loan packages which have already been granted to Greece and fellow indebted eurozone members Ireland and Portugal.
Waigel served as Germany's finance minister for almost a decade, between 1989-1998 under conservative chancellor Helmut Kohl.
It was he who, during a European summit in Madrid in 1995, proposed to name the common European currency, now shared by 17 nations, simply the "Euro".

Kindles in clothes a wantonness . --Herrick, Delight in Disorder
After its invention some 9,000 years ago: Cloth would soon become an essential part of society, as clothing and as adornment expressing self-awareness and communicating variations in social rank. For good reason, poets and anthropologists alike have employed cloth as a metaphor for society, something woven of many threads into a social fabric that is ever in danger of unraveling or being torn. --John Noble Wilford (1993:C1)
Usage: 1. What we place upon our bodies (e.g., clothing, footwear, hats, makeup, and tatoos) adds color, contrast, shape, size, and texture to our primate form. Each day, myriad messages of adornment broadcast personal information--in a continuous way (i.e., as "frozen" gestures)--about our ethnicity, status, affiliation, and moods. 2. We may use clothing cues as a. uniforms (or "clothing signs"), b. fashion statements ("clothing symbols"), c. membership badges ("tie-signs"), d. social-affiliation signs ("tie symbols"), e. personality signs ("personal dress," e.g., the bow tie), and f. socio-political-economic signs ("contemporary fashion"), according to a typology developed by SUNY Fashion Institute of Technology professor, Ruth P. Rubinstein (1994). 3. "Social rank . . . has probably always been encoded through symbols in the material, design, color, and embellishment of the clothing" (Barber 1994:150).
Anatomy. Before pants, skirts, and shoes, there was the unadorned primate body itself: eyes, teeth, skin, hair, and nails, along with shapes formed of muscle, fat, and bone. Before adornment, the nonverbal brainexpressed feelings and attitudes through body movements, postures, and facial cues. But with the advent of clothing and shoes the body's nonverbal vocabulary grew, as shoulders "widened," ankles "thinned," and feet stood up on tiptoes (see HIGH HEEL). As "optical illusions," stripes, colors, buttons, and bows accented or concealed natural signs, and drew attention to favored--while diverting eyes from less favorable--body parts.
Culture. The world's most extreme adornment may be the Afghan robe-like dress called a burqa: "I explain I was curious to see the world from within a burqa [journalist Vivienne Walt wrote], whose only opening, an oblong grid over the eyes, cuts peripheral vision, blurs everything else and makes breathing more difficult. [Gul] Bibi [38, from Kandahar, Afghanistan] laughs skeptically, then declares: 'I've been wearing this since I was a small girl. If I didn't, I would feel men were eating me with their eyes'" (Walt 2002:1A).
Prehistory. Early evidence for personal ornamentation consists of a European stone pendant with decorative grooves, and a tapered neck around which to tie a thong (Scarre 1993:43).
Fur. As primates, we are also mammals for whom a dense matte of fur is an evolutionary birthright. Anthropologists do not know when or why humans lost their body hair, but it is clear that clothing originated as a fur substitute to cover the skin and genitalia. (N.B.: That we see nude bodies in the workplace on but the rarest of occasions testifies to the power of clothing today. Once fashion appeared in Nonverbal World, it never went out of style.)
Beads. If a bear-skin robe made the body loom large, decorating the garment with beads attracted greater notice still. The elaborate beadwork of a man's fur clothing found at a 23,000 year old hunter's burial ground in Sungir, Russia, remained long after the furs themselves had rotted away (Lambert 1987). As fashion media, however, leather and beads could go just so far. Only after fabric replaced fur did clothing became truly expressive.
Leather. Full body dress originated in Africa or Eurasia to protect the body and keep it warm. The first clothes were made of prepared animal hides. Stone scraping tools from Neanderthal sites in Europe provide indirect evidence for hide preparation, suggesting that cold-weather clothing could be at least 200,000 years old (Lambert 1987).
Flounce & weave. The earliest domesticated sheep, from Zawi Chemi Shanidar, Iraq, suggest that wool clothing originated 10,500 years ago (Wenke 1990). Unwoven skirts and shawls made of flounces of tufted wool or flax were worn by the ancient Sumerians 5,000 years ago (Rowland-Warne 1992), although one of the earliest known textiles--a linen-knit bag from Israel (found in Nahal Hemar cave)--is thought to be 8,500 years old (Barber 1994).
Fiber & fabric. More recently, the invention of the flying shuttle (1733), the spinning jenny (1764), and the 19th century power-loom made cotton fabrics available in ever greater quantities, as consumer products. Mass produced clothing first appeared in 1851 with the invention of the sewing machine, and increased in production with the use of synthetic fibers (e.g., Orlon in 1952). As the adornment medium became subject to greater control, the diversity and number of clothing cues burgeoned (see MESSAGING FEATURE). (N.B.: In 1993 a Lands' End? Mesh Knit shirt contained 4.3 miles of 18 singles cotton yarn [Anonymous 1993].)
Tattoo signals. "[U.S.] Teenagers with tattoos are more likely than their peers to drink too much, have sex too early, get into fights and engage in other risky behavior, a University of Rochester study shows" (Anonymous 2001E).
E-Commentary: "I've called you before on other feature stories and you've been very helpful. Currently, I'm doing a story on teen fashion. I'm looking at what's going to be the prevailing trend for spring/summer (it's lots of loud color). I have a question: What, in general, are teens trying to accomplish with the fashion and sense of style they cultivate?" --J.W., Sun Chronicle, Attleboro, MA (3/17/00 11:57:54 AM Pacific Standard Time)
Neuro-note. To the very visual primate brain, fashion statements are "real" because, neurologically, "seeing is believing."

Our Premises
We began our project with 5 premises:
- Technology provides us with a unique opportunity to do something that has never been done before: fundamentally change how reading is taught. Delivering a paper curriculum in an electronic medium was not an option.
- A real teacher is better than an animated cartoon character. Our program would therefore not substitute a mouse for a human. We would have to come up with an alternative way to deliver the instruction.
- ELL students should be given equal learning opportunities as their classmates. We wanted to create a program that caters equally to native English speakers and ELL students.
- The world does not need another "Edutainment App." We wanted to create a solid curriculum with zero distractions (i.e. one-eyed-monsters, letter-eating-frogs, flying spacecrafts), so students can spend more time learning.
- Extrinsic rewards do not motivate children to read. Our program would have no extrinsic rewards (badges or currency). Students would be motivated to progress out of a love of learning.
We set out to create something unique…
What We Built
We built the first—and only—program that teaches students to read by "Playing with Sounds," and not through "verbal instructions." With CAPIT Reading students "Play with Sounds" and intuitively create Letters, blend Words, and assemble Sentences. This could not have been imagined before technology. (Premise 1)
When students learn to read by "Playing with Sounds," they do not need a "guide" of any kind, whether a mouse or any other cartoon character. We achieved an alternative way of delivering the instruction. (Premise 2)
Because CAPIT Reading teaches without verbal instructions, it is "language agnostic" and naturally accommodates students of all backgrounds without any modifications or special accommodations. Other programs require ELL students to don their headphones and learn in a foreign language. CAPIT Reading is used by ELL students and English speaking students in the same way and in the same manner, giving all students a shared learning experience. (Premise 3)
When students learn to read by "Playing with Sounds," they are constantly engaged and entertained by the curriculum. As soon as students enter CAPIT Reading they know what the "game plan" is: Learning to Read. (Premise 4)
Lastly, CAPIT Reading has no external rewards, so students are entirely self-motivated. Each interface was carefully built to test students just enough to make an exercise seem challenging, yet easy enough to make it seem solvable—so students stay engaged from lesson to lesson. (Premise 5)
CAPIT Reading will help more students reach reading proficiency before they finish 2nd grade.
How We Build
Everything we build at Capit Learning is based on research and is built in an iterative process. Each component is first paper tested with students before it turns digital. This is done in our office and in the classroom in our Beta testing site at LAUSD. After multiple rounds of paper testing and digital testing, we gather the information and make decisions about what needs to be corrected, iterated upon, or entirely scrapped.
How We Got Our Name
Our name—CAPIT—was carefully chosen. It is an acronym for Concept And Personality Integration Technique and is reflective of our educational philosophy: we take deep Concepts and give them Personality so students can Integrate them into their growing body of knowledge.

Standards Alignment
CAPIT Reading is a supplementary reading program that is easy to implement alongside any ELA core curriculum. CAPIT Reading covers many of the Common Core State Standards, and in some ways far surpasses them. To learn how CAPIT Reading aligns to the CCSS click on the link below.
CAPIT Reading was built upon very specific research on early reading instruction, child development, and cognitive science. To learn about the research that guided our development click on the link below.

Singapore NParks came under fire for its purchase of 26 Brompton foldable bikes and they required Singapore's Minister for National Development Khaw Boon Hwa to defend the purchase as it "satisfy the criteria of 'value for money' when public funds are involved".
The official distributor for the Brompton foldable bikes has, however, made claims on its Facebook Page that the bikes were tendered by an unauthorised reseller and may not come with the warranty that buyers get when buying via official means.
Wrote the Diginexx Facebook Page,
A M6L retails at S$2250 per bike at Diginexx which will cover the 5-year frame warranty and 2-year warranty on parts.
In comparison, buying a total of 26 M6L Bromptons at $2200 per bike is unfortunately not a fair deal for NParks especially when the bikes come from a non-authorised reseller, which do not and cannot offer the official five-year frame warranty and two-year parts warranty.
NParks may have saved on $50 per bike as "value for money" but what happens when the bikes get damaged within the next two to five years?

Sticking with the theme of women's health for the week, today's post reviews an article that was recently published in the journal, Endocrinology, by a group of researchers in China led by Shih-Min Hsia. Using a rat model, the group examined whether resveratrol, a compound found in red wine, has therapeutic effects on uterine contractions for those women suffering from dysmenorrhea.
Dysmenorrhea, otherwise known as painful menses, affects between 72-90% of women in the United States, as well as 58% of women in China, 34% of women in Japan, and 73% of women in Taiwan. Common symptoms of dysmenorrhea include cramps and lower abdominal pain, and sometimes nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, and back pain. Though dysmenorrhea affects an enormous number of women worldwide, the exact cause of it is still unknown. There are several possible suspects, of which may be working in concert with each other as opposed to one single cause alone. It is believed that one potential pathogenic factor involved in dysmenorrhea is Prostaglandin (PGF2α). Studies have shown that PG is elevated in women with primary dysmenorrhea, compared to those women who do not have the condition. It is thought that PGF2α stimulates uterine contraction and vasoconstriction, which may lead to the pain associated with dysmenorrhea.
Enter: Resveratrol
Studies have found that resveratrol, a compound found in red wine, is a strong antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory, anti-platelet aggregation, anti-proliferation of cancer, and vasorelaxation properties. It is thought, that because of these benefits, that resveratrol may be a potential aid in relieving some of the symptoms of dysmenorrhea. However, no studies to date have observed this effect in both in vitro (laboratory setting) and in vivo (in an animal model), and therefore extremely little is known about the actual effect of resveratrol on uterine contraction and the symptoms of dysmenorrhea.
Methods (very abridged)
For the in vitro studies, uterine horns from female rats were used. After preparing the uterine horns, those that received the resveratrol treatment received doses of 10, 25, 50, 75, or 100 μM at 10 minute intervals. Contractile activity of the uterine horns after resveratrol or control (no resveratrol) treatments were measured using force displacement transducers. Various compounds that are known to induce uterine contractions were measured and tested for effects of resveratrol on their activity. The exact treatments for each test were: 1) PGF2α, or PGF2α plus resveratrol; 2) Oxytocin, or Oxytocin plus resveratrol; 3) Ach, or Ach plus resveratrol; 4) carbachol, or carbachol plus resveratrol ; 5) KCL or Bay K, or KCL or Bay K plus resveratrol.
For the in vivo studies, female rats were used. They were housed and fed using standard approved housing and dietary guidelines. After confirming that the rats were in estrous stage, they were given either PGF2α , or PGF2α plus resveratrol via a jugular catheter. This allowed researchers to evaluate PGF2α-induced uterine contractions on rats and if resveratrol had any effect on the reaction.
- Exposure of rat uterine smooth muscle tissue to resveratrol inhibited PGF2α-induced contractions in a dose-dependent manner.
o Interestingly, this inhibition could be reversed if the tissue was washed of any resveratrol and reanalyzed.
- Resveratrol was found to have an inhibitory effect on oxytocin-induced contractions (both force and frequency) for all doses.
- Resveratrol was found to have an inhibitory effect on Ach-induced contractions (both force and frequency) for all doses.
- Resveratrol was found to have an inhibitory effect on carbachol (10-6 M)-induced contractions (both force and frequency) for all doses.
- Exposure of rat uterine smooth muscle tissue to resveratrol inhibited K-induced contractions in a dose-dependent manner.
- For in-vivo conditions, resveratrol treatments significantly reduced the PGF2α-induced contractions in female rats.
What does this all mean?
It is pretty clear and very promising, that all of the contraction-inducing compounds were inhibited by the presence of resveratrol. In other words, the administration of resveratrol significantly reduced uterine contractions, caused by several known uterine contraction inducers. The results of this study, the first of its kind, indicate that resveratrol may be a valid and effective treatment for addressing the pain symptoms of dysmenorrhea, which is likely caused by contractions of the uterine wall.
One thing to keep in mind is that this study was done on rats, and not humans. Of course, being the first study of its kind, the animal model is always the best first approach. At the very least, we can say with confidence that resveratrol is an effective treatment for dysmenorrhea in rats, but may or may not be for humans. Human trials would need to be completed in order to completely answer this question, but the results of the rat model experiments prove very promising for a human model as well.
Another thing to keep in mind is that it is not fully known or clear of the exact cause of dysmenorrhea. It is assumed to be related to uterine contractions; however, if there is more involved, we cannot be fully certain if resveratrol would in fact be an effective treatment. The only thing we could truly say with confidence is that resveratrol inhibits uterine contractions, which we may then make further implications for potential dysmenorrhea treatment.
Finally, is the dose of resveratrol administered to the rats in this study a reasonable dose for humans (after controlling for body size)? The maximum dose administered to the rats in the in vivo study was 2mg per rat. Translating that to a 60kg human, a 2mg dose for a rat is equivalent to a dose of 0.324mg for a human. Based on the amount of resveratrol known to be in a glass of red wine, one to two drinks of red wine daily would achieve the same effects seen in this study.
This is potentially great news for women who suffer from painful dysmenorrhea. Instead of taking over-the-counter or prescription drugs to help with the pain, maybe all that is needed is a glass or two of red wine every night! Of course, more studies need to be done, particularly human studies, but the results of this one-of-a-kind study are promising.

Our hotels are usually "4 star" - and occasionally "5 star" - and are usually chosen to be within easy walking distance (back from) the opera house.
How do you plan your tours?
The design of each tour is usually planned around specific opera performances, (each of which, in situ, is preceded by a background lecture from Iain). Our sightseeing often has an operatic focus - We are "on the trail of Verdi, or Puccini, or Mozart, or Wagner, etc."
How many nights do you usually spend in one location?
Three or four. Each morning, we visit places of operatic interest. Each afternoon is free to shop, see more or just relax. In the evening, if there is a performance, Iain gives a backgrounder lecture over supper beforehand.
How do you normally travel between cities?
By luxury highway coach, to ensure luggage on/off is easily handled by hotel porters -- and to have an enjoyable lunch in an interesting spot en route.
Is Airfare included?
No. Tour costs are "Land Only". We have found that many, if not most of our clients either fly on points, or are already in the area on private business, or prefer to fly "up front" or ...
Our favourite Travel Agent, Bill Andrews of New Wave Travel (firstname.lastname@example.com) will be very happy to assist you with your air needs and wants.
What's it like to travel with Iain and Barbara?
The atmosphere we try to create is that of a group of compatible friends, exploring their common interests.
In addition to opera, these clearly include good food and wine!

Angela Tucker (left) and Lauren Domino (right)
Who: Angela Tucker and Lauren Domino
What: Filmmakers and writers
Where: Irish Channel (Angela), Mid-City (Lauren)
Artist's Chosen Location for Interview: Outside their studio at a table in the sun
Q: What is an animal activity that freaks you out?
LD: I have an irrational fear of birds, so I'd say anything that birds do—especially pigeons—creeps me out. It makes no sense. There was this moment when I was deciding on leaving New York to come home to New Orleans when I saw a flock of pigeons pecking at fried chicken on the street.
I was walking to work, and I was already in a dark, dark place. When I saw that I thought, I have to get out of here. I'm done. Anything birds do—their scales, their feathers, everything grosses me out. And have you ever seen a dirty pigeon? So gross.
AT: I don't have a story like that. Squirrels, though, gross me out. They're rats with tails. That's all they are. And what I can't figure out is that squirrels look all warm and fuzzy, but you can't get near them and touch them. That doesn't make sense.
LD: You can get near them.
AT: No I can't. I'm afraid they're going to bite me.
LD: Remember when we were in Denver and Clint had that squirrel come right up to him? We thought he was going to get rabies, but the squirrel was really sweet. Although, Clint is kind of an animal whisperer.
AT: Yeah, I can't do that. They just gross me out.
Q: What teenage phrases do you want to have in your daily life?
LD: Rad. I love the phrase rad.
AT: Well, I kept the phrase 'It's butter baby,' for way too long. It's a late '90s/early 2000s phrase, but I didn't want to give it up. I would say 'butter' to a point where my friend was telling me, 'No, you can no longer say that. It's over.' I finally took it out of my lexicon, but it was really hard to remove that one.
LD: My little brother always says these new phrases, and I have no idea what they mean. It makes me feel old.
AT: My friend sent me a link to phrases that kids are saying now. She told me, 'I found something that's going to help us.' I absolutely need to look at that now.
LD: The teen lingo moves so quickly.
AT: We probably had a lot of phrases when we were teens, but now social media has things spread so quickly. When we were teens, in order for something to catch on, it had to spread the old-fashioned way. I had to say it all the time, my friends had to start saying it, and then finally maybe 20 people would start saying it.
LD: It's a lot of regional lingo as well. Things we'd say here in New Orleans no one would know what we were talking about. Now if you put it on the Internet it goes everywhere.
Q: When do you find you're the quietest version of yourself?
AT: I would say when I'm with my family. A lot of my family has big personalities, so I no longer feel the need to assert myself in that. I like to observe all the crazy, bizarre things that are happening right before my eyes. It's not exactly the calmest version of myself, but it's when I'm quiet.
When I go visit my family over the holiday, I will probably say three sentences in four days.
LD: I was going to say the exact same thing. My family as a large group, is boisterous and they like to dance. I don't do either of those things. I went to my cousin's wedding and Irish-exited right in the middle of it. I dipped out. I didn't see anyone cut the cake. Me and HGTV were hanging out while the wedding was going on.
AT: I'm not quiet with Lauren.
LD: I'm not quiet with you either. Or with my other friends. It's specifically to my family.
AT: And I feel like this has come more with adulthood. When I was a kid I was preoccupied with getting my voice in there and getting attention. Now I don't feel like I have as much to prove. Plus, I don't get to see my family all that often, so I love to watch them. I can also be quiet in romantic relationships. It's about a comfort level there. If I can be with someone that I'm dating and not feel like I have to entertain them, then I know it's a good spot. The weird part is when the person you're dating thinks there's something that's upsetting you because you're quiet.
Q: What can often keep you awake until 3 AM?
LD: Bob's Burgers. That and my anxiety. Those two are usually paired together. My mind is racing, so I want to watch something before I go to sleep, so I tell myself I'll watch an episode. Then I've watched six episodes, it's 3 AM, and I have to get up at 9 AM.
AT: I totally watch Felicity in the middle of the night when I can't sleep. I'll re-watch scenes I love. I was in college when that came out, so that show reminds me of that time. It's funny how you watch that and look at how deeply the characters are focused on these problems that aren't problems at all.
I have to ask, then, are you a Ben or Noel person?
AT: I used to be a Noel person, but now I've changed to Ben. Because Ben was always a douche, and that never got better, but there are just some men that women are not going to get over. Ben is one of those. He could kill a relative, and Felicity would make an excuse for it.
LD: Yeah, I used to be a Noel as well, but he's so emotionally manipulative. Ben was a jerk, but he was honest about that. Noel was playing with Felicity's emotions and he was getting mad that she liked this other guy, and the whole time he had a girlfriend in Ohio. I totally feel like if she were to end up with Noel he would cheat on her with the nanny and somehow turn it around so it was her fault.
AT: Yeah, Ben would just say, 'Our nanny is hot, and I slipped up.' Noel is that personality type that's the "pseudo-sensitive guy", and the pseudo-sensitive guys are the worst. They claim that they're evolved. I'm a deep-feeling person.
LD: That they're a feminist.
AT: Yes, and then they mess with you even worse. They somehow do this elaborate scheme making you feel like everything is your fault. You start seeing their side and understanding their feelings.
LD: And then you realize that it's not about their feelings. It's all about their narcissism.
Q: What story do you wish someone would have filmed from your adolescence?
LD: There's a film I wish I still had, but Katrina washed it away. It was a film of my 6th or 7th birthday. My birthday and my sister's birthday are the 23rd and 26th of December, and no one could ever come to our parties. For our half birthday, we had a crazy epic block party. We had two separate Little Mermaid birthday cakes.
One of the neighbors was filming and he asked me, 'Lauren, what do you think about this wedding?' (referring to the Little Mermaid cake that had a wedding scene on it). I looked at him and said, 'It is totally tubular.' It was little me with really big glasses saying, 'It's totally tubular.'
AT: I've been writing a little bit about this. I used to spend the summers in Provincetown. I went on my first date there. They had reintroduced the film My Beautiful Laundrette. This guy and I were kind of set-up. We were both 11 years old.
I used to see really intense movies at a really young age. After the movie I wanted to have a conversation. We were outside of this cute little movie, and I asked him, 'So what did you think of the movie?'
He didn't really know what was going on, and he said, 'That was weird.'
We only went on that one date. I never saw him again.
My mom and her friend were watching us, and I would have loved to have had that on film.
Angela Tucker and Lauren Domino are both filmmakers and writers. They are currently working on their new project Paper Chase, which you can help support by donating to their kickstarter campaign. You find out about Angela's additional work including the web series, Black Folk Don't here.

Tobey Maguire recently revealed some interesting information about directors he'd like to work with in the future. When asked he replied, "Guillermo Del Toro." Hmmm, wasn't Del Toro working on something really big? Oh, that's right, The Hobbit! Is Maguire in line to play a halfling?
We already know that some of the biggest young stars in town have turned down the part of Bilbo Baggins: James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe have both been ruled out as potential actors to play Bilbo. But when asked who he'd like to work with, and after responding it was Del Toro, Maguire went on to say that, "We have something here in the near future." Isn't it safe to say The Hobbit lies in the near future?
So it looks like Peter Parker could soon become the guy to act in both Hobbit movies, and now that we know Spider-Man 4 and 5 don't actually film back-to-back, we know that this is something his schedule could allow. Latino Review reports:
So technically speaking, Tobey is available after shooting Spiderman 4 which is slated to begin shooting Winter 2010. The first Hobbit film is slated to start shooting mid-summer 2010. ...As it stands, The Hobbit hasn't been greenlit by the studio. Jackson and Del Toro have been personally footing the bill for the development and the pre viz of The Hobbit. Here is the wildcard: next month's auction of MGM assets. MGM owns half The Hobbit rights. In just a few weeks we will know who will retain those rights.
This is kind of a strange turn of events -- not that anything is set in stone. At this point we don't even know who's going to own The Hobbit, much less final casting details. Nonetheless, Maguire seems like he could be a natural fit for this part. After all, he's already got experience playing small people. He played a jockey in Seabiscuit and he brought tears to our eyes! Well, maybe that's overdoing it a bit.
It's hard not to get excited about any news that's Hobbit news, but only time will tell whether this is going to stick. Hey, if he can sling webs, no reason Maguire can't wrangle with Gollum!

Discussion in 'Verizon' started by OldSmoky, Jun 13, 2010.
What will be the first phone with native 2.2 (not upgraded from 2.1) without a keyboard?
my bet will be the Droid 2
The questions was without a keyboard.
ok, how bout shadow/extreme?
It's being released with 2.1.
That's all I've been seeing as well.
My guess is the HTC Scorpion.
I would like the Droid X but who knows when 2.2 will be available. Besides I've had trouble with my Eris since the upgrade so I've been thinking that I should go with a native 2.2. I may end up with the Droid 2 even though I don't really want a phone with a keyboard. Of course by the time the Droid is released, there will new rumors of 2.2 phones.
My guess would be the HTC Scorpion too, but who knows when that will be out. I don't think anyone knows even an approximate timeframe, but within a month is HIGHLY unlikely. Actually, I'd say it's impossible.
Who knows now, with the news of Adobe, Google, Moto, and Verizon all attending the launch event next week for the next generation Droid. I can only think of one reason for Adobe to be there, which is the intro Flash 10.1, which will only be available in 2.2.
With that info, I guess the Droid 2 and/or Droid X will be the first. There's literally no reason for Adobe to be there, except to join in the announcement with some Flash 10.1 bragging the day before the iPhone 4 release.

Air India Express to function independent of parent airline with own pilot pool
|, ET Bureau
Dec 11, 2012, 06.00 AM IST
MUMBAI: Air India Express will start functioning independently of its parent airline and soon be able to operate as a separate entity with its own pool of pilots, according to a top Air India executive.
The move is aimed at smoothening the operations of Air India's budget carrier, which has been struggling with its flight schedule as it uses the same pilot pool as state-run Air India to operate its near-200 flights a week.
"Air India Express will be allowed to function as an independent company and in insulation from Air India," Air India's chairman and managing director Rohit Nandan told ET. "We are now putting in place a formula that would resolve the pilot issue for Air India Express. Pilots will no more go from Air India as we are getting expat trainers for Air India Express."
Air India Express has a fleet of 21 aircraft. In the recent past, it was forced to restructure its network and withdraw some flights in the winter schedule (effective October 28) because of pilot shortage. Its profitable flights to Abu Dhabi from Chennai were affected, for instance.
According to travel agents, the airline cancelled at least 168 flights in September to the Gulf from southern India, which has a sizeable number of people undertaking job-related travel to the Middle-east. Recently, Kerala announced plans to start an airline to meet the burgeoning demand for cheaper flights.
According to Nandan, the number of trainers for Air India Express would go up from four at present to 13 by December-end, enabling the carrier to have sufficient number of trained pilots. Although Air India Express has a separate air-operating permit, it was unable to leverage this to enhance its network.
Also planned for the Kochi-headquartered carrier are dedicated officials to look after its flight operations in other cities and a call centre for handling queries.
"There will be separate deputy heads for commerce, finance and operations and Air India Express will have offices in Chennai and Mangalore," Nandan said. A separate MRO for Express aircraft at Trivandrum has already been announced.
The budget carrier had made a presentation to the civil aviation ministry in August stating that it needs at least 200 more pilots.
It also has very low aircraft utilisation that is half of the industry practice for at least 12 hours for a Boeing narrow-body 737-800 type. The airline had come under criticism from the civil aviation regulator for its poor safety record after an annual safety audit last year found procedural shortcomings besides shortage of pilots and trainers.
But a senior Air India executive said that putting the airline back in the reckoning will help Air India, as there is huge demand on the routes in the Middle East and southeast Asia, where the airline is losing out to other carriers. "By and large, there is a need for a budget airline operating effectively as an answer to the growing influence of budget carriers from southeast Asia and the Gulf region, as there is a demand that needs to be fulfilled from these regions," an Air India executive said.
Travel industry experts said that if Air India Express is able to stick to its schedules, there is no reason why the shift in demand, currently to carriers like Air Arabia, will not reverse.

Why is Surf to Save dangerous?
It's all the same what extension you are eager to install, it can be the weak point for the whole system. Surf to Save is not an exclusion. All browser vendors release security updates and worry about the safety of their users. But if you activate any extension, then software companies are not able to ensure that your PC will not be infected. Online scammers can open the add-on as it were a pass to the computer.
Surely there is a sure solution for this problem: install add-ons from well-known and trustworthy vendors only. But is not 100% guard from internet criminals and software infections. It is better not to have add-ons at all. You should understand that every installed extension has the permission to collect your personal info that you impart when fill in some forms online. This data, including your phone number, your name, number of your credit card, etc. can be delivered to some advertising companies. Be provident installing and using any browser add-ons and do not install them, if there is not a genuine necessity in it.
Surf to Save, as an advertising add-on, is more dangerous, because Surf to Save is an advertising browser add-on that adds some other dangers. Is there any warranty that the special offers are 100% real? No doubt, no. So, you should not believe the ads and its promises. Also you should not click the links of the displayed ads because they can be viral and so, as a result, you can get a real computer threat on your PC.
Are Manual Removal Instructions Safe?
Manual removal method that you can use to remove Surf to Save from browsers are safe and not so complicated as you may think. Perhaps, only automatic method is easier. This removal way is very efficacious because the browser vendors bother about your right to add or remove any browser add-ons. The method will give you a chance to uninstall all the undesired browser extensions and you will not be displayed its popping-up windows any more.
But there is another manual removal instruction where you should remove files, folders and registry entries. The described way of removal is secure in case if you are able to execute it cautiously or let the experienced person follow it. In order to make this process more secure you should create the backup of the registry. Do not forget that only the listed parts of the extension should be deleted and no other ones otherwise the PC will not load. If you do not realize what registry entry is and where it should be, then you should follow automatic way of removal not to harm your computer.
Automatic way of removal is the method when a user installs any removal utility to solve the issue. The way out is considered to be the most secure and sure. It is also not complicated one. You should just download the antivirus program that has Surf to Save in its signatures. This method is more useful because you will install the antispyware and antimalware scanner that will protect your computer from the future incoming threats.

Flatpointed or roundnose cast bullets were standard if not universal for scheutzen and benchrest at 200 - 300 yards. Paul Jones makes spitzer style .32 moulds, although the effort kind of fizzled in larger calibers. The pointy bullets are cataloged but seldom used.
There is no technical reason an 8mm-40 would not work; there were even period target rifles made or rebored to .33-40 for .338" bullets. The purpose was to get a heavier bullet at a reasonable length. Sectional density is not unlimited for cast bullets.
There is an economic reason. A GOOD .324" or so mould would have to be obtained, dies would have to be made or modified, and you might even have to have a chamber reamer custom ground. A common complaint of .38-55s is that chamber necks are too tight for a bullet made to fill the grooves. I don't know if the .32-40 shares that problem, but you should find out before you buy stuff.

Baby Eczema
B has eczema and every day feels like a battle of the rash on his face. When it's warm out, he'll flare up bad. We recently had A/C installed to keep his room cool and it has helped but he still has splotchy red spots on his cheeks, poor thing. I'm curious what you mamas have done to help tame eczema on your kids.
This is what I've been doing:
– Keeping his face clean and dry, which is really tough now because he is drooling puddles 24/7. The saliva really irritates his skin and makes the eczema even worse.
– I'm a big fan of the Mustela stelatopia line. We use their soap for his body and hair, cream cleanser for the face, and balm to moisturize.
– I'm trying out Vanicream post-bath to lock in moisture.
– Curel Anti-Itch is in my rotation when I catch him scratching at his face or neck.
– Run a humidifier in his room overnight so it's not too dry. If you do this, be sure to keep the windows and door open during the day so the room airs out. You don't want the moisture to grow mold and bacteria, especially if you have rugs or carpet. When he's up from his nap, I keep his windows and door wide open and turn on the ceiling fan. Oh, and be sure to always clean the humidifier! I use the Smile Rabbit Humidifier, which works really well and is easy to clean. I like that you use a bottle of water – I just use a Fiji water bottle filled with filtered h2o. You can purchase it here.
– Tell myself that hopefully one day he'll grow out of it and if not, so be it.

Slow Going in EPA Efforts to Strengthen Chemical Safety, GAO Finds
Efforts launched by the Environmental Protection Agency in 2009 to strengthen the safety of chemicals are proceeding slowly, the Government Accountability Office reported recently, and could take years to yield concrete results. These efforts are aimed at improving the agency's management of hazardous chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act, a law passed in 1976 that the EPA has found difficult to implement. The GAO acknowledges that many of the challenges the EPA faces are rooted in TSCA itself and that Congress should consider making statutory changes, but states that even without legislation the EPA can do more within its existing authority.
Report Findings. The report states that since 2009 the EPA has made progress implementing its new approach to managing toxic chemicals under its existing TSCA authority, particularly by increasing efforts to obtain toxicity and exposure data. However, due to statutory requirements that place the burden of developing toxicity data on the EPA rather than industry, and because promulgating the rules needed to obtain toxicity data from companies can take years to finalize and additional time for companies to execute, the EPA has yet to obtain much of the toxicity data it has been seeking. Also, the EPA is in the process of analyzing exposure-related data it received in August 2012 and therefore is not yet in a position to use them to identify additional data collection needs or chemicals that may warrant further review or risk assessment.
Moreover, while the EPA's toxicity and exposure data collection efforts may be useful for identifying chemicals that are potentially harmful, it is unclear whether these data will be sufficient for conducting a risk assessment. According to agency officials, both toxicity and exposure data are needed to conduct a risk assessment in order to demonstrate that a chemical presents or will present an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment, which would be required before the EPA could ban or limit the use of a chemical under TSCA.
The GAO states that there are several ways the EPA has not tried yet to obtain chemical data. For example, the agency could seek a formal agreement allowing it to receive toxicity and exposure data that companies submit to the European Chemicals Agency. It could also use its TSCA Section 8 authority to require chemical companies to report toxicity and exposure-related data they have submitted to the ECA or exposure-related data from processors. Instead, EPA officials said they are considering using the subpoena authority under TSCA section 11(c) to obtain this information.
Finally, the report states, it is unclear whether the EPA's new approach to managing chemicals within its existing TSCA authority will position the agency to achieve its goal of ensuring the safety of chemicals because it has not clearly articulated how its strategy will address challenges that threaten its ability to meet its goal—particularly, challenges associated with obtaining toxicity and exposure data needed for risk assessments and with the EPA's ability to ban or limit the use of chemicals, given past difficulties with taking such actions.
Call for Reform. Sens. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., said the GAO report highlights the need for Congress to pass the Safe Chemicals Act of 2013 that they reintroduced last month. A joint press release notes that under the existing law the EPA has only been able to require testing for roughly 200 of the more than 84,000 chemicals currently registered in the U.S. and to ban only five dangerous substances in nearly 40 years. The SCA (S. 696) would address these perceived deficiencies by (a) screening chemicals for safety by prioritizing chemicals based on risk, (b) requiring risk management (e.g., labeling, disposal, restricted uses or bans) of chemicals that cannot be proven safe, (c) establishing a public database to catalog the health and safety information submitted by chemical manufacturers while also protecting trade secrets, and (d) promoting innovation and development of safe chemical alternatives.

For Thanksgiving we were out of town (more on that later), and when we got back, we got Rocky. We were at the Flippin Wal-Mart doing some grocery shopping, and there was a car with a sign for 'Free Christmas Puppies', and as we drove by I saw that they were White Labs. We've been talking about getting a Lab Mix for our next dog, and I couldn't resist. So, Hubby let me get a puppy. He was 6 1/2 weeks old when we got him and all snuggly. Here are some cute pictures:
Here is Rocky on the day we got him. We sat in the car, while Hubby went and got puppy supplies.
Here he is cuddling with me on the LovSac. He took lots of naps when we first got him.
Here is Rocky and Peep on the bed at my feet napping. So cute. When we got Rocky he was smaller than Peep, now he is bigger, and still growing.
So the next thing that makes me feel like we are starting an ark, besides the two cats, and two dogs, and the eight chickens that are fully grown now.
And the next step, according to Hubby, is pigs as soon as he can find them for sale. I think we should wait until Spring, but he is bound and determined, so we'll see.

Setsuko Maho
Setsuko Maho is a self-taught Japanese artist and printmaker based in London since 2013. In that time she's been exploring the range of possibilities, techniques and methods available in screen-printing to produce artwork that fascinates. Sudden intuition and fleeting emotions from everyday life inspires her work; these artworks are a diary of her memories. She expresses her feelings of a particular moment by collage; using colours and shapes to create an abstract monotype screen print of her original patterns: to incorporate both her paintings and fabric works. She has developed a commanding use of techniques; of splashed patterns; blur and gradations of colours; with bleeding of inks to create her own style in screen-printing. This is why she is currently focused on hand printed effects – that expresses both, her process and exploration of techniques as an artist.

Setsuko is intrigued by the unpredictable and illimitable possibilities of form, motion and pattern of twirl from the paint as it is squeezed from a paint tube. The random nature of this action informs and the instinct to aesthetically control this, informs the patternmaking that comes from her work.

Unanswered: Tomcat 3.2 & SHTML Files
I've written some HTML in the SERVLET using out.println(). I have included this CLASS (UserList.class) file in my SHTML page, say index.shtml using the Servlet Tag e.g
<servlet code="UserList" codebase="http://localhost:8080/userinfo/servlet/UserList"></servlet>
but when I access index.shtml the code or html written in servlet class doesn't print. but when I access servlet class directly then the html written in servlet class prints in browser without any problem.
I'm running Tomcat 3.2 on WinXP Professional.
Any help or suggestions are very welcome.
Thank you

SMS revenues maintain high. More and more there is a growing discrepancy between the amount of incoming and outgoing SMS caused by enterprise generated SMS traffic (A2P) fueling the potential of monetizing the SMS traffic further. Safety measures to ensure correct termination of this traffic are paramount. With OTT trying to get their share of this billion dollar business, other players with easy access to SS7 and fraudsters happily hacking into the systems, SMS termination needs to be carefully monitored.
SMS traffic, as any other interconnect traffic, is subject to revenue leakages on different levels. Arbitrage, SIM Boxes or Relay operations, third party routing, abuse of open SMSC and spoofing are big contributors to your daily losses. You need to verify these if you plan on monetizing your incoming SMS traffic.
SIGOS' services help you to identify the actual SMS flow. The solution sends multiple SMS from SIMs as well as generates web-based SMS traffic in a fully managed service.

People think about apps differently than they used to. For a long time, applications have been a pretty thick layer in our digital sandwich: we paid lots of money for them and expected them to do big things. Those apps still exist: Photoshop, Visual Studio, Word.
But this weekend I bought three apps and paid a combined $1.98 for them: an iPad game for my kids, a movie finder app and an alarm clock. That's a new way to think about apps and it seems to be a lot more like what we used to call content: these apps are cheap (or even free) and our relationship with them is transient, just like it is with a music video or a magazine.
The quintessential embodiment of this idea is, of course, the app store (slash app marketplace) where we literally shop for apps in the same place that we buy TV shows and music and movies and where the apps are cheap (enough to be expendable): if you scan the top 200 paid apps for the iPhone, only a handful are priced at more than two dollars and only one, the most expensive, costs 9.99. And those are the paid apps! Even more content-likeis the arsenal of ad-supported apps and the emerging advertising networks which support them. The mobile advertising market appears to be growing so quickly that even possible market losers are seeing astonishing success, at least according to Google's Jason Spero who said "if we are losing share [to Apple], this market is growing faster than any one we've seen."
So far this is mostly a mobile phenomena. Arguably, that's at least partially driven by necessity: mobile browser are slow and awkward. Tasks that are well served by a webpage on my desktop are better served by an app on my phone. It's nice to have an experience that is customized for a device and even nicer to pre-download all of the UI for that experience in the form of an app.
On the other hand, a curated app store is such an appealing model that, necessity or not, it is almost certainly on it's way to a desktop near you. There's little doubt Microsoft (and maybe even Apple) will extend the app marketplace experience to the desktop in the near future. Google's already created the app marketplace for web apps (sold mostly through monthly subscriptions or supported by ads—once again, sounds a lot like content). Frankly, I don't think that Photoshop is going away anytime soon but Office Web Apps are free today and presumably ad driven tomorrow.
What does this mean for developers?
I think about this a lot (as I'm sure you do). Change creates opportunities and this is an exciting time for us. It's an amazing chance to be very creative (in the "create something" sense of that word). Here are the things that I'm thinking about:
First, you've just become very popular."Apps" (in the way we've talking about them here) are making their way under the media umbrella. Moving into that ecosystem may come with some growing pains, but media has always made it's money on volume. The margins are different and models will need to change, but ultimately the thing you know how to do (build great apps) matters more tomorrow than it does today.
Second, you need be platform agnostic.We all claim to be this, but most of us are pretty cozy somewhere. Maybe we're looking at some platform convergence in the not-so-far-off future (HTML5?), but presently we're dealing with a lot of divergence. When apps are content, they need to span across multiple devices and platforms just like other media does. You can't afford to dismiss half of your market because of divergent technologies anymore than Radiohead can release vinyl-only albums.
Third, you need to think like a producer (not just an engineer).Don't get me wrong, the world needs great engineers—so if that's you then stay the course. But where the guy in charge of "software" is an architect, the person with a vision in the "app" world might be called a producer. When it comes to traditional applications (and infrastructure), the high order bit is stability (like a building). The success of an content-like app, on the other hand, is measured by its impact and its "production value." Our love affair with an app may be short lived but it needs to start with love at first site. Creating that kind of impact comes from seeing the bigger picture and understanding the path to get there.
Well, there you have it. It's a bright future for those of us who make apps: better software, more of it and in more places.

Love my frogs!
Posted by Steve on 17th Apr 2017
My froggies arrived safe and sound overnight. They were double-bagged with lots of packing material with "Live Frogs" on the side label. They were both healthy and actively swimming around once I put them into my tank.
It's been a week now and they both readily find and devour the food I give them. And they get along great with my 2 other (older, bigger) froggies. They are a lot of fun to watch.

This is THE best place to order Dwarf African Frogs from! I've never seen healthier ones, and I've ordered on multiple occasions over the years. I have a group in a 20 gallon, and the day after I received them they were singing and hugging each other. They are healthy and eating well, too. Funology is a great company and fixed the shipping cost for me immediately, it's almost the same cost to ship six frogs as it is just one!
Posted by Kurt VG on 1st Nov 2016
They frogs were delivered on time and in good physical shape.
Posted by Susan P. on 3rd Apr 2016
I had two African Dwarf Frogs that I purchased elsewhere for several years; but unfortunately one of them died. I thought the remaining frog might be lonely so I ordered one from Funology. I was notified when it would be shipped which was in a few days when the weather would be warmer (it was coming from SC to KS). It arrived timely. Followed the instructions before introducing it to my other frog. I am happy to report all is well.

I was worried about shipping a live frog from NC
to Ohio, but our frog was shipped overnight (hence the $19.99 shipping charge). The frog was packaged well, in a double insulated bag, and a heat pack, in a tightly insulated box, clearly marked "Live Frogs". The FedEx delivery person was careful placing it on the porch, as I happened to be home for delivery, but it is not necessary. We followed the instructions included about how to introduce him to our existing EcoAquarium, with on frog already in it.
All went well, and my daughter is thrilled!

I have had African Water frogs, off and on, for 30 years. I am enjoying the smaller size, but just as active in a pint sized way.
