Challenges of testing mobile memories
Last month, JEDEC hosted a mobile memory event at 2012 Consumer Electronics Show. One of the presenters was Cecil Ho President of CST and a member of the JEDEC Board of Directors. I recently spoke with Cecil about the challenges of testing mobile memories, and he gave me his perspective from his vantage point at CST.Test&Measurement Designline (T&M DL): What's the typical form factor for mobile memories? Why is this packaging choice so attractive?Cecil Ho: To save precious space, mobile memories come in a BGA (ball grid array) package. They are usually constructed with multiple dies stacked on each other. It is generally called MCP (multi-chip package). The chips are interconnected through bond wires. T&M DL: Are there standard multi-chip packages for mobile memory? How do they differ?Ho: JEDEC has published several package standards for mobile memory. The packages and pinout are keyed on DRAM technology with some optional pins for adding flash combinations. However, due to the many possible variation of flash technology, different vendors' MCPs can be quite different from each other. T&M DL: Why are MCPs difficult to test?MCPs combine different kinds of memory technologies, namely DRAM and flash. The conventional test method for the two separate memory technologies are quite different. The convention method is to use a "two pass" tester and two teams of test engineers for their separate expertise. T&M DL: What kinds of tests need to be done? Why?Indeed, MCPs test need not be complicated. Since the DRAM and flash chips are already tested by their original vendor, only a functional test is required to detect assembly error and die handling damages. T&M DL: How are MCP for mobile applications typically tested?Today, most MCP chips for mobile applications are tested with general purpose memory ATE (Automated Test Equipment). It is usually done with a "two pass" test. T&M DL: What are the limitations of this approach?The memory ATE testers are bulky, expensive, and less flexible. They usually require high levels of engineering skill in maintenance and reconfigurations. Besides, as mobile memories are getting in production high-gear, there will be a shortage of testers to fill the production test needs. T&M DL: Is there an alternative way to test? How is that an advantage? Who is doing it?The alternative is to use a functional tester built for MCP testing. Our company is making such a tester. The advantage is low cost, small footprint, and easy configuration. It can also run simultaneous (single pass) tests on both DRAM and flash to weed out cross-talk problems on the assembly. T&M DL: Can you talk us through an example of an alternative test set up?A typical CST MCP Test System has 64 DUT (device under test) sockets. It is integrated with a pick-n-place chip handler for automation. Once all the chips are loaded into the sockets, the tester will exercise the cell contents of the chip including the DRAM and the flash contents. It then reports the errors through its host PC display. It pin-points the fault as well as saving a log for failure analysis. T&M DL: What needs to be done for DRAM testing? Typical mobile DRAM are LPDDR1 (low power), LPDDR2, and the upcoming LPDDR3. DRAM testing involves a read/write on each cell at high speed up to 1600 MHz (LPDDR3). Due to possible DRAM soft errors, different critical test patterns also have to be run to unveil those failures.Our tester uses FPGA based pattern generators to generate flexible vectors to fill the needs. T&M DL: What about non-volatile testing? Non-volatile flash testing is normally read/write/erase, and bad cell marking. However, due to the new generation of Toggle Mode and ONFI NAND flash, double-data-rate high speed accessing also has to be included. T&M DL: Concerns when testing eMMC? eMMC testing is different from raw NAND. In the previous case, it involves a controller between the host and the NAND flash chips. In additional to read/write/erase, there is also formatting and cell counting. On top of that, eMMC involves security features that require information to be pre-written into internal registers. The tester must be able to fulfill this function also. T&M DL: How is UFS testing different? UFS is similar to eMMC with the exception of the serial interface bus. The tester will have to include a high speed Serte to convert this high speed serial data to the tester common interface and vise versa. T&M DL: What challenges remain for mobile memory testing?Mobile memory is a rapidly changing industry. New memories are expected to appear every 18 months. Each generation will come with higher speed and lower power. The challenge is to keep up with the repid changes and have test solutions ready to meet the challenge.

'Blurred Lines' Model Cast in Gone Girl
Salute David Fincher.
You know the one: the extra-bored, extra-naked woman who is having none of Robin Thicke's cheesiness. Her name is Emily Ratajkowski, and she will play Andie, Nick's college-age girlfriend, in David Fincher's Gone Girl. (Apologies to Becky from Friday Night Lights; we did our best.) Anyway: Affleck, Tyler Perry, "Blurred Lines," Cool Girls … this movie is going to be a hilarious pop culture time capsule, if nothing else.

EDMONTON - It's the longest, arguably toughest horse race in the world and a feisty Edmonton woman is in it to win.
When the starter's pistol fires early Sunday morning, Aug. 4, Lynn Hamilton will thunder off with 29 other riders from 10 countries entered in the 5th annual Mongol Derby, a self-guided, multi-horse race across 1,000 kilometres of Mongolian wilderness.
Hamilton will spend a gruelling 12 to 14 hours in the saddle every day, for eight to 10 days, riding through the forests, desert, rivers, mud, marsh and salt flats of the Mongolian Steppe, changing small, semi-wild horses every 40 km at a station or urtuu along the way.
At night, she will stay with nomadic herding families who host the urtuus, sharing their eye-watering meals of dairy and mutton, and sleeping in their summer dwellings or gers.
The derby was inspired by the messaging system of Genghis Khan (Chinggis Khaan in Mongolian), the 13th-century military leader of the Mongol Empire, whose messengers used the same kind of Mongolian horses to gallop from urtuu to urtuu, changing horses at each stop.
Riders are told to expect being thrown off a horse at least once, and to beware the wild dogs owned by their nomad hosts. About one in three riders are disqualified for not crossing the finish line by the 10th and final day of the race.
Hamilton, an international aviation lawyer and businesswoman who turned 50 this year, can't wait for the adventure to begin.
By the time it's over, besides the amazing stories she'll have to tell, and hopefully the bragging rights as first-place finisher, the married mom of five also hopes to have raised at least $10,000 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
Two of her children, 17-year-old Margaret and 14-year-old Tom, have Type 1 diabetes.
When your children are diagnosed with diabetes you feel like you've got to do something to help find a cure, she explains.
The money raised will go to the Alberta Diabetes Institute at the University of Alberta to help find a cure. Donations can be made to her ride until the end of August.
Hamilton, who has been mad about horses since she was five, owns a big Hanoverian named Riley that she rides in local show-jumping competitions.
She says she's a competent rider who entered the derby at the suggestion of her husband Paul, who calls her "Adventure Girl" because she's always up for a new challenge.
Competitors are only allowed to ride during daylight hours and are penalized with extra time if they break the rules. Some riders may find themselves between stations at the end of the day and may have to camp out. Hamilton is a seasoned camper, but has agreed with her family not to risk camping at night.
She's been training for the derby since last December, when she found out her application had been accepted. Canadians Catriona Paterson, 34, and Alison Wilson, 50, who now lives in New Zealand, are also in the race.
To qualify, riders must be experienced, pay an entry fee of 7,595 British pounds ($12,017), raise 1,000 British pounds ($1,578) for Cool Earth, a U.K.-based charity that protects endangered rainforest, and an equal amount for a registered charity of their choice.
Additional costs — for travel to Mongolia and equipment like stirrups and a GPS — will push each rider's bill to about 9,000 British pounds ($14,240), says derby chief Katy Willings. That's enough to prohibit many people from applying for the 35 starting positions.
Hamilton has worked out three times a week with a personal trainer to get herself physically fit. She's also cycled, run, done some swimming and built up her core strength, which she hopes will prevent her from being thrown from one of her mounts.
On the riding side of things, she's gone on a three-day endurance ride in Arizona and has started to ride smaller horses occasionally.
"I ride about five days a week and I started riding my daughter's pony to get used to the sensation of riding a smaller horse like the Mongolian horses," she explains.
More recently, she's been going on trail rides and riding as many different horses as she can to get ready for the 25 different mounts she'll ride during the derby. (Up to 1,000 horses are rounded up and ridden only once during the race.)
In the end, luck will determine whether she wins or not, says Hamilton. She would be the first woman and the first Canadian if she does win.
"A horse can start out going really well and then 10 km out it stops and doesn't want to go any further. Or you can get a horse that's just crazy and bucking and it goes well for 10 km and then it decides to buck you off and run away. So I think it's just being very lucky."
Hamilton does, however, believe her age might give her an edge over some other riders who are as young as 18.
A former competitor told Hamilton there's a bit of a party atmosphere and younger riders tend to indulge more in the fermented mare's milk and vodka drink they are offered by herding family hosts in the evenings.
"Being an older person, we can't do that anymore," Hamilton says, laughing. "You've got a more sensible approach of getting yourself into bed at the end of the day because you know you've got to be up and in the saddle early the next morning."
You can follow her progress during the derby with a satellite tracking feed that can be accessed through her Facebook page.

Well, the Flyers have now officially dug themselves into another hole. They again will be given an opportunity to test the resolve for which they have become so famous. They threw an incredible punch at the Boston Bruins on Monday, but they still find themselves buried in their second-round playoff series, 0-2.
Despite a dominating performance by the James Van Riemsdyk -- the crowd was chanting "JVR...JVR...JVR" in the third period as the Flyers' burgeoning young star made foray after foray at the Bruins' goal and took a turn on three different lines -- the Bruins held on through the end of regulation and then won the game in overtime, 3-2. The winner was scored by David Krejci at 14:18 of overtime. It was a goal, a slap from between the circles, the beat Brian Boucher cleanly and immediately ricocheted out of the goal. The referees did not see it but, after the next stoppage, a video replay confirmed the obvious.
And now, again, the Flyers must dig.
They spun the Goaltending Wheel of Controversy again Monday night. This time, it came up "injury."
For the fifth time in nine post-season games, the Flyers had to change goaltenders. The first three times, in the Buffalo series, it was because of gross incompetence. The fourth time, it was because the team was so bad in Game 1 against Buffalo. The fifth time, it was because Flyers starter Brian Boucher appeared to hurt his left hand with 8:59 remaining in the second period.
But in the end, it didn't matter. Boucher was back for the start of the third period, and the game would last into the xxxxxth.
Back when, the first period began as if in a Flyers dream. After "U-S-A...U-S-A...U-S-A" and after "God Bless America," the home team played as if shot out of a canon and scored after only 29 seconds, when Van Riemsdyk converted on a 2-on-1 pass from Claude Giroux.
Nine minutes later, it was Van Riemsdyk again, on a power play, getting the second rebound of an original shot by Kimmo Timonen. It was JVR's seventh goal of the playoffs, and only begins to tell the story of just how good he has been. Several times on Monday night, he made the kinds of plays that joined speed and strength in a beastly combination. He has been an undisputed force.
But as the first period wore on, and as the emotion of the start wore off, the Bruins persevered and tied the game. The first Boston goal was a mess, a Chris Kelly shot on which Boucher had no chance, mostly because the Bruins' Michael Ryder had been shoved into his lap by Flyers defenseman Andrej Meszaros. Then, at 14:15, the Bruins tied the game on the kind of goal that has forever kept Boucher a backup. He was excellent overall -- but this one, a 40-footer by Brad Marchand that beat him on the glove side, needed to be stopped.
In the second period, a pronounced dynamic began to play itself out. The Flyers were getting the better of the play on the rush, but the Bruins were absolutely dominating when it came to establishing a beachhead in the offensive zone. There were some loooong stretches where the Flyers couldn't get the puck out of their zone, which can be a wearing proposition on everybody.
Still, the Flyers survived. Bobrovsky was excellent after he entered the game and it was 2-2 going to the third. At which point, Boucher came back. And, at which point, the Flyers played their best overall period of the young series. Their pressure was relentless at times. Van Riemsdyk, Danny Briere, Mike Richards and others all had multiple golden chances to give the Flyers the lead -- but it didn't happen. Van Riemsdyk played a manly 9 minutes 33 seconds in the third as Flyers coach Peter Laviolette kept sending him out there with almost every line.
The overtime was a wild circus, again dominated by the Flyers. But Boston's Rich Peverly did hit a post with about 9:05 left.
But in the end, it was Krejci and another hill to climb.

The yen fell for a fourth day against the dollar after Finance Minister Taro Aso said Japan's stimulus policies that have caused the currency to weaken were unopposed at a Group-of-20 meeting in Washington.
The Japanese currency dropped at least 1.1% versus all its 16 major counterparts amid speculation of further easing that has helped the currency slide 20% against the dollar in the past six months. The euro briefly extended a gain versus the greenback after German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said the European Central Bank is doing "everything right" on monetary policy and should reduce liquidity in the euro area. South Korea's won gained.
"The move has been triggered by the finance minister's comments that we saw overnight," Sireen Harajli, a foreign- exchange strategist in New York at Credit Agricole SA, said in a phone interview. "The Bank of Japan has been very aggressive about its monetary policy, and as long as inflation in Japan is at negative rates, their stance is going to continue to be justified. There's definitely more scope for aggressive monetary policy."
Japan's currency fell 1% to 99.14 per dollar at 8:59 a.m. New York time after declining to 99.36. The currency slid to 99.95 on April 11, the weakest level since April 2009. The yen dropped 1.2% to 129.66 per euro. The dollar dropped 0.2% to $1.3078 per euro.
Won, Kiwi
The South Korean won gained versus all 16 of its most- traded counterparts as an advance in Asian and European stocks fueled demand for greater returns. The currency climbed 1.4% to 8.87 yen after appreciating to 8.891, the strongest since Oct. 2, 2008. The won gained 0.7% to close at 1,116.30 per dollar in Seoul.
South Korea's currency has rallied from an eight-month low versus the dollar set last week as the Communist North refrained from conducting a nuclear test or a missile launch.
New Zealand's dollar appreciated against most major counterparts as a Chinese government economist said the nation's economy may rebound in the second and third quarters of the year. China is the South Pacific nation's biggest trading partner. The so-called kiwi rose 0.5% to 84.51 U.S. cents after earlier increasing as much as 1%.
"We're still seeing strong evidence of high demand for high yield, which underpins the Aussie dollar and New Zealand dollar," said Greg Gibbs, a currency strategist at Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc in Singapore.
New Zealand's dollar has strengthened 6.4% in the past six months, the best performer of the 10 developed-nation currencies tracked by Bloomberg Correlation-Weighted Indexes. The Aussie rose 2.2% and the yen slid 20%.

Can we all just pretend that Hector Lombard's UFC debut against Tim Boetsch didn't happen? The heavy-handed killer we saw run down Rousimar Palhares like a frightened deer at the TUF Smashes Finale was the guy we've been waiting for and expecting since he jumped over to the UFC from Bellator. But there was a reason why Lombard's dance partner looked tentative during the match — Palhares suffered ligament damage and broken bones in his foot after throwing a kick in the opening moments. Toquinho explains:
"During the fight, my kick was working well. But soon in the first round, one of my kicks hit Lombard's shin below his knee. I heard a snap, and I knew something bad happened. From that moment on, I [started] feeling my foot more and more numb and without strength to walk around the Octagon."
An injury early into a match can take a fighter's mind completely out of the competition — just ask Travis Browne. As Palhares struggled to process his body's new limitations, he turned into a sitting duck for Lombard's power punches, and now the Cuban is officially a factor in the middleweight division. Meanwhile, Palhares has now lost his last two UFC bouts by first-round stoppage, including his TKO defeat against Alan Belcher in May. Get well soon, Stump.

Drivers suffer minor injuries when school bus, car collide in HooksettBy BENJAMIN KLEIN
Union Leader Correspondent
October 21. 2013 9:20PM
HOOKSETT — Two drivers went to the hospital after a Hooksett School District bus, with no children on board, collided with a single occupant vehicle Monday morning.
According to police officials, both drivers were transported to Elliot Hospital in Manchester with what appeared to be minor injuries.
The accident, which occurred on Hooksett Road by Legends Drive, is currently under investigation, Hooksett police Sgt. James Bradley said. To help determine the cause of the accident, Bradley said that the school bus's on board road camera will be examined.
According to district officials, Hooksett contracts its bus service with a company called Goffstown Truck and the bus was on its way to pick up children for a middle school route. The same school official said students were not delayed by the accident as two other bus routes picked up the slack.

IRVINE, Calif. – Clara Jane Nixon, former President Richard Nixon's sister-in-law who maintained the history of the Nixon family in Southern California, has died.
The Richard Nixon Foundation says she died of natural causes Saturday in Irvine. She was 92.
Clara Jane Nixon was married to Donald Nixon, who gained national attention in 1960 when he received a business loan from billionaire Howard Hughes. The loan raised campaign financing questions during Richard Nixon's presidential campaign.
The foundation says Clara Jane Nixon helped recover and preserve the original furniture pieces from the childhood home of the five Nixon brothers. The pieces are now at the Richard Nixon Library & Birthplace in Yorba Linda. She also participated in many events at the library.
Clara Jane Nixon is survived by a son and daughter.

Rumor has it that Richard Dreyfuss will make a cameo in "Piranha 3D", and will be "paying homage to jaws, even drinking Amity brand beer". Very subtle, guys.
Debbie Rochon stars in "Stopped Dead", about a group of friends vacationing in an RV who end up in a "race with death" against a homicidal biker gang. Good times.
Robert Rodriguez was announcing future projects yesterday, and mixed in with the voluminous list was a reboot of the "Predator" franchise. Granted, FOX is still involved because they're the rights holders, but I personally would love to see what Rodriguez can do with that story.
"The Crazies gets pushed back to a February, 2010 release. The Romero remake was previously scheduled to be released September 25th of this year.
Steve Niles has his script ready for a "30 Days of Night" sequel. Since the first one wasn't a smash success, Sam Raimi (in his role as head of Ghosthouse pictures, the label that released the film) has convinced Niles that direct to DVD is the way to go, so that's how the film will be released.

NEW YORK (AP) — Of all the unlikely venues for an opera, you'd have to go some to top The Box, a nightclub in a seedy Lower East Side neighborhood where black tie is optional, cameras are prohibited and dancers perform seminude every night at 1 a.m.
But it struck Neal Goren, artistic director of the adventurous Gotham Chamber Opera, as the perfect location for the U.S. premiere of Francesco Cavalli's "Eliogabalo," a baroque opera about a 3rd- century teenage Roman emperor whose sexual depravity was shocking even by the standards of that corrupt era.
After all, this is the same company that enjoyed a triumph three years ago with another "site-specific" staging, performing Haydn's comic opera "Il mondo della luna (The World on the Moon)" at the Hayden Planetarium.
Alas, the latest effort, seen at its second performance Tuesday night (it runs through March 29), is only a partial success. Perhaps seduced by his environment, director James Marvel chose to pile on the camp so thickly that it frequently overwhelms the musical and dramatic charms of this salacious yet elegant work. While the singers perform ably, they are often sabotaged by the cheap and obvious stage business required of them, especially in the evening's first half.
This was especially true of Eliogabalo himself, portrayed by the hardworking countertenor Christopher Ainslie and his two cross-dressing sidekicks, Zotico (mezzo-soprano Daryl Freedman) and Lenia (tenor John Easterlin). Ainslie, while singing an extremely demanding role, was forced to preen and prance while wearing a variety of garish outfits that included fishnet stockings and a glittering codpiece draped in fringe. Such was the level of humor that when he sang of his love's beauteous cheeks, you could be sure it wasn't her face he was fondling. Easterlin, carrying a large black purse, and Freedman, whip in hand like a refugee from the Kit Kat Klub in "Cabaret," indulged in similar nonstop sexual innuendo.
The standout performers were mezzo Emily Grace Righter and baritone Brandon Cedel. Righter brought a noble voice and bearing to the role of Alessandro, the cousin who at first defends the emperor but eventually joins the plot to assassinate him. (In real life, Severus Alexander succeeded Heliogabalus and reigned for a dozen or so years until he, too, was assassinated.) Cedel, fresh from being named one of six winners in the Metropolitan Opera's 60th annual National Council Auditions earlier this month, played the comical servant Nerbulone with a lustrous, booming voice and charismatic appeal.
Marvel did a creditable job of adapting the work to the limitations of The Box's tiny stage. A long table, with audience members seated along the sides, served as a catwalk for characters to make their entrances and exits. During a banquet scene when owls are supposed to descend ominously on the feast, an aerialist with owl talons appeared overhead, swinging on a sheet.
The singers were ably accompanied by a string ensemble that included the theorbo, a long-necked plucked string instrument. Goren himself played the harpsichord. The opera, composed in 1667 but apparently never performed until 1999, was subjected to extensive cuts. That kept the running time of the production to about 2½ hours, but it also upset the pacing, making the plot machinations of Acts 2 and 3 seem rushed.

TUESDAY, Dec. 27 (HealthDay News) -- With all those parties, tempting foods and travel, it can be a challenge to stick with your fitness program during the holidays.
But doing so can give you extra energy and help you get a good start on a healthful new year, according to Kara Smith, a fitness trainer and special programs coordinator at the Loyola Center for Fitness.
"Whether you're at home for the holidays or traveling, it is important to stay on your path to fitness during the holidays. Maintaining your workout routine will help you resist overindulging at holiday meals and parties," she said in a Loyola University Health System news release.
She offered some advice:
- When packing for a trip, include an elastic resistance band so you can do strength-training exercises when you're not at the gym. You might also consider buying a new fitness DVD for your trip so that you can have fun trying something new.
- If you're staying at a hotel, find out if it has a fitness center and if it does, pack exercise clothes and take advantage of the workout opportunity.
- Make fitness a family activity. For example, going for a family walk, having a pick-up football game or building a snowman are all ways to get exercise and have holiday fun at the same time.
- If you're traveling by car, stop frequently to get out, walk and stretch. Promote blood flow in your arms by making circles with your shoulders and wrists.
- To save calories and money, pack healthy snacks like trail mix and fresh fruit.
- Eating a healthy meal before you go to holiday get-togethers will help limit your consumption of unhealthy party foods.
- Limit your consumption of alcohol, which adds calories and affects your ability to make decisions about healthy eating.
"You can still enjoy the holidays without wrecking your fitness plan. The holidays are about spending time together. So enjoy the conversation and company and limit the cookies," Smith said.

I'll never give up, no, never ever give up - that ship!
The economy, without a doubt, is in the toilet. Not just here, but in most of the civilized world- times are bleak.
I suppose there are a few oil-rich countries in the Middle East that are faring well, and possibly Monte Carlo, and Mallorca are holding their own. But these are the playgrounds of the rich and famous as well as the rich and infamous. Let's face it- that's a fairly recession-proof group they're entertaining over there.
We can't deny that the people running those places had some forethought and marketed their little corners of paradise to the right folks. If the mega-yacht crowd ever goes under, we will all sink with them. As long as they continue to live well, we have a small window of hope.
And those who entertain the fabulously wealthy share in the benefits. The host countries to that elite sector of society deserve well-earned credit for their efforts. They certainly had the right idea when they went into business.
Nonetheless, those people may as well be on another planet. Most of us are destined to endure hard times now and again. But we've been here before. We know how to survive, don't we? Haven't we always bounced back and experienced a few good years? Well . . . maybe not. Maybe we're not the survivalists we think we are.
During these trying periods, have you ever noticed how people attempt to survive the so-called glitch in our tired old economic machine? It's rather interesting.
For instance, a couple of days ago, I was having a conversation with a good friend about the cost of fishing with the exorbitant fuel prices being what they are. Back in the old days, like a couple of years ago, a 100-mile trip offshore to catch a few tuna ran a few hundred bucks. But fun and relaxation out on the water was worth it.
You came back with a cooler full of fish for the family, enjoyed a couple of days with friends in the fresh salt air, and all was well with the world. Not any longer.
Even a small sport fishing boat is going to burn up $500 worth of fuel to take the trip out to tuna territory. If the fishing gods are not on your side and you return with a couple of small ones or less, you'll be paying a lot for those little fish. Look at it this way- the high-end fish markets don't charge $30 a pound for anything.
Now if you decide to add the cost of the boat, the expense of a slip or mooring, maintenance, winter storage, etc., we could be talking very serious dollars. Something in the neighborhood of several hundred dollars a pound for just about any fish would be closer to accurate.
However, did you ever notice that no matter how hard times might be, fishing boat owners and sailors will lose their homes before they will part with their boats? They will send their children out to forage on their own first. It's true. They will never, under any circumstances, ever ever ever give up- that ship.
Do you know why? There's a very simple reason for this seemingly illogical behavior, particularly with sailors. That "ship" represents freedom. If all goes wrong, and a sailboat owner loses everything to the point of being penniless, but still manages to hold on to his boat- he can sail off into the sunset and leave his problems on shore.
After all- air is free. He can catch fish, go to exotic destinations and pick coconuts off of trees on sunbleached beaches. It would be the ultimate adventure. It's the stuff that novelists write about. Sailors sit in their easy chairs all winter long sucking on their pipes as they dream about such things.
I guess it never occurred to any of them that most safe anchorages in warmer climates of the world are lined with things like hotels, resorts, and marinas. They also charge dock fees, mooring fees, and if they are in a foreign country, cruising permits are required. That also has a fee attached to it.
They probably didn't think about things like running out of coffee, and once in a while they should eat a vegetable. Steal a coconut or mango off of some guy's beachfront property and he will more than likely have you arrested. And let's not even consider that eventually something could go wrong with the boat and it will need service, repair, or . . . a new set of sails. No - that would spoil the pipe dream.
Nevertheless, the last thing to go when times are difficult will always be the boat. Owning a boat in a slumping economy is part of that system that we have no hope of ever understanding.

Python slithers to 'significant' release
Five-year milestone
The open source community this week hailed the most significant update to Python in five years.
Python 2.5 contains major improvements in reliability, performance and efficiency, according to release manager Anthony Baxter.
Python 2.5 fixes 450 bugs found since the release of Python 2.4 and features 350 patches. The language is faster thanks to better exception handling and improved string operations; and a more efficient cProfile profiling module has been added. A comprehensive list of what's new can be found here.
Python, along with PHP and Perl, puts the "P" in to the LAMP stack - (Linux, Apache and MySQL slam in the LAM).
<pMany Web 2.0 companies, such as YouTube, Flickr, Digg and deli.cio.us, have alighted on LAMP low-cost and open source architecture. Start-ups have also sprung up that are trying to build a viable services model around LAMP by guaranteeing that different elements and version numbers work with middleware and applications.
However, Python and certain elements of the LAMP stack could have limited geographical appeal. Analyst firm Evans Data Corp reported in August 2005 use of Python among developers in Europe the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) had dropped by more than 25 per cent in the 12 months since Augut 2004, with 17 per cent saying they had no intention of evaluating the language. PHP also fell 25 per cent and Perl saw a 20 per cent drop, according to Evans.
It blamed the decline on the inability of Python, Perl and PHP to penetrate the enterprise.
In a concession to Python's potential pull among developers Microsoft, this month released its own version of the scripting language, called IronPython. Written in C#, IronPython works in Microsoft's Common Language Runtime (CLR) for interoperability with Microsoft's other languages and tools, and is capable of compiling to either Microsoft's .NET platform or the open source Mono.®

10 Cozy Winter Meals to Make You Happy to Stay Inside
In many ways, I think this is the best time of winter for cooking. There's no holiday pressure. Our guests have all gone home. We have no real obligations at all. Which means that we get to cook exactly what we want, when we want to, and eat at our leisure. If you're at home today, I'd say this is the perfect time to drag out a heavy soup pot, pick some spices, and get something warm and comforting simmering on the back burner.
A cozy winter meal can mean a lot of things — a pot of beans and a smoky ham bone, creamy polenta topped with wilted greens and a poached egg, chewy pasta with meatballs. The universal truth is that a winter meal must fill your house with aromas of cooking and satisfy you to the very tips of your toes. Bonus points if it's amenable to being eaten on the couch while covered in blankets.
We have a great archive of these kinds of meals here at The Kitchn, and we dug deep for some of our favorites below. We have a hearty chili topped with sharp cheddar cheese, a simple lamb stew spiced with cinnamon, how to make the world's best lasagna, chicken and dumpings, and many more. Take a look and then share what meals you've look forward to making on long winter days at home.
• 1. Veal Meatballs in Red Wine Sauce
• 2. Chili with Pasta and Wisconsin Cheddar
• 3. Eggy, Crispy Polenta with Tomatoes and Mushrooms
• 4. One-Pot Pasta e Fagioli
• 5. Simplest Cinnamon Lamb Stew
• 6. Braised French Onion Chicken with Gruyere
• 7. Lentil, Mushroom, and Sweet Potato Shepherd's Pie
• 8. How to Make Lasagna
• 9. Beef and Barley Stew with Mushrooms
• 10. Chicken and Dumplings
What's your favorite winter meal to make when you're cozy inside all day?

Venice, the Gran Tour
Friday, 20 October 2017 from 09:30 to 13:00 (CEST)
Event Details
This tour is all about Venice's main features and sites in a 3h30 tour including St. Mark's square and church, Rialto market area and a waterborne ride through the canals on your way to Murano island where to see glass masters.
If your stay in Venice is short and you still want to get an overall impression on the city's most famous sites moving around at ease and being part of a real small group, 'Venice the Grand Tour' is the most suitable then. The itinerary includes St. Mark's square visiting St. Mark's church, a walk through the central district up to the Rialto bridge and market area and a waterborne ride in and around the city before reaching Murano. In this island you'll visit a glass workshop and see the master artisans working in place.
After meeting your guide in St. Mark's square he/she will introduce you to the art and history of the great buildings encompassing the largest open space in the city once simply called 'the piazza' a true open stage used for parades and celebrations for centuries. From outdoors admire the Old and New Procuracies, the National Library, the Bell and Clock Towers, the Ducal Palace and the very ornate Porta della Carta.
The Byzantine looking basilica of St. Mark's will be visited inside. You'll learn here how a very simple and small burial chapel become the present Eastern architecture all sheated by marbles of diverse provenance and the ceiling being covered by thousands of feet of gold shining and glass paste diminute pieces.
And is time now to explore the city through the water, a perspective of Venice caught from its natural environment is a real must. From the boat you'll be at a close distance from the imposing palaces facing the canals while the guide will describe how they were built, who lived there and how they were used. Get to experience also how is it like moving around in a city dominated by boats. And from the water is where the greatest pictures and vistas of Venice can be taken.
After navigating the area of the lagoon closer to Venice we'll arrive in Murano where since 1294 up to the present masters have been creating glass by hand using traditional tools only. Visiting a glass studio or workshop in Murano for the first time is a must, there is only one place in the world where an unlimited number of shapes and colors are given to glass and still active. On arrival visitors we'll see the furnaces area and witness the work of the masters at close distance and a host will introduced them to all they should know about glass making techniques and styles.
Is time to get back to Venice with some more navigation before ending our tour in the commercial hub of Venice, the Rialto market area once the old merchant's place. The bridge was built at the shortest point of cross on the Grand Canal to make the easiest crossing and it was also a shopping mall still standing after more than 400 years and a large restaturation. Nearby the tour will bring you in the main square in Rialto where the guide will tell you about the heydays of this place as international merchantile hub. Have time to wonder around the fresh vegetable and fish market after ending the tour with your guide.

AKRON, Ohio (AP) — A participant in the first All-American Soap Box Derby watched Saturday as more than 440 racers competed in the 76th running of the event.
Jack Hamels, 90, raced in the first derby in 1934, when it took place in Dayton, Ohio. He said cars then were made out of whatever a racer could find.
"The cars we made, we had to make them ourselves," Hamels, of Buffalo, N.Y., said. "These are more sophisticated."
Hamels said he decided to race when he saw an advertisement for the event in a local newspaper. He's kept his memorabilia throughout the years, including rulebooks, race programs, the cloth hats racers wore and the numbers from his car.
Hamels served as Grand Marshal of this year's derby parade, spent time with current and past racers and even raced down the track at one point.
Hamels, who did not win his 1934 race, had some advice for Saturday's contestants.
"If you lost, come again next year," he said.
This year's derby featured racers from countries around the world, including the United States, Canada, Japan and New Zealand.
Ricky Desens, 14, of Webster, N.Y., won the Rally Super Stock division, and Macaila Ziolkowski, 13, of McKeesport, Pa., won the Stock division. Bryce Volpe, 14, of Mentor, won the Super Stock division.
This year's youngest winner was Erin Donovan, 9, of Eagleville, Pa., who won the Rally Stock division.
"I'm probably gonna show my neighbors and everything my big, giant trophy," she said.
Two 16-year-olds won the Masters divisions. Jay Warnick of Drayden, Md., won Local Masters and Melanie Kohout of Geneva, Ill., won Rally Masters.
The local division winners won a $3,000 college scholarship, and the rally division winners received a $2,000 scholarship. Winners also received a gold ring, trophy and championship jacket. Stock division winners will be given a hand-carved replica of their championship car.
The derby is continuing to undergo changes as officials try to ensure its future and preserve the past.
Race president and CEO Joe Mazur has overseen a lot of those changes, including the start last year of a hall of fame and museum and an alumni association for all former race participants.
"For us, not to have an alumni association is actually crazy," he said.
Mazur also wants to see a bigger global presence and more racing opportunities.
Currently, around 6,000 racers in 600 races around the world compete in an effort to get to Akron, and Mazur wants to increase race locations. Fifteen new rally races were added this year, in addition to seven new race locations.
He says the past will still play a large role in the organization. Mazur plans to expand the derby's influence with the help of generations of racers.
"I've never run into anyone that doesn't want to do something for the derby," Mazur said. "Once it's in your blood, it's in your blood."

Maine State Police Get Involved in Breast Cancer Awareness
October is breast cancer awareness month and with 1 in every 8 women impacted by breast cancer in her lifetime, almost everyone knows someone in Maine who has been impacted by the disease.
Now Maine State Police will display pink in their own way this month.
A press conference is planned for later today in Augusta where Chief of the Maine State Police, Colonel Robert Williams, and the President of the Maine State Trooper Association, Sergeant Michael Edes, will officially unveil the plates which will be placed on all Maine, marked, State Police cruisers.
The breast cancer awareness plates are funded privately and part of their message is early detection saves lives.

Anne Hathaway: Hugh Jackman was my 'rock' on Les Miserables set
- Bang Showbiz
- 25 February 2013
Anne Hathaway says her fellow 'Les Miserables' actor Hugh Jackman was an inspiration and a source of strength to the entire cast on the set of the multiple Oscar-winning picture
Anne Hathaway claims Hugh Jackman was everyone's "rock" on the 'Les Miserables' set.
The 30-year-old star - who won the Best Supporting Actress trophy for her role as struggling prostitute Fantine at the Oscars last night (24.02.12) - says her Australian co-star was so hardworking and committed to making Tom Hooper's musical movie a success that he inspired her to put everything into her own performance.
She said: "It wasn't hard work, but, you know, it was challenging. And we looked to him every day and to his strength and to his indefatigable spirit. He never complained once.
"He did as many takes as need be, and he was absolutely our rock and our inspiration through everything and to me personally."
Anne jumped up to embrace Hugh upon hearing the news of her big win and believes the kind-hearted actor, who lost out on the Best Actor gong to Daniel Day-Lewis, was the "magical" central force of good behind the movie and the reason it is such a success.
She added in a backstage interview during the Academy Awards ceremony: "Tom Hooper, our director, has gone on record as saying this film wouldn't have happened if Hugh Jackman didn't exist. And I know exactly why he says that. Hugh is this magical alien combination of strength and soul and heart and artistry and fun.
"And if you think about it, I mean, not to get serious, but we do live in a world that can tend toward the cynical, and to have someone in a film like this where it's inherent to the film's success that you believe in the goodness of the central character, and that someone like Hugh exists who has that goodness within him, it made the film soar."

By Jack Kim
SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea named former premier Pak Pong-ju, a key confidant of the leadership dynasty who was sacked in 2007 for failing to implement economic reforms, as its cabinet chief on Monday in a move that would further cement the ruling family's grip on power.
Pak, believed to be in his 70s, is a key ally of Jang Song-thaek, the uncle of the isolated state's young ruler Kim Jong-un, and worked for Jang's wife, Kim's aunt Kyong-hui, the last remaining personal link to the state's revolutionary founder, Kim Il-sung, grandfather of the current leader.
"At the session, Deputy Choe Yong-rim was recalled from the post of premier of the DPRK Cabinet and Deputy Pak Pong-ju was elected premier of the DPRK Cabinet," state news agency KCNA said, referring to a meeting of the rubber-stamp parliament.
DPRK is short for the North's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the move came as tensions ratcheted higher on the Korean peninsula as Pyongyang threatened war and the United States flew in Stealth bombers.
Pak was named to the powerful ruling Workers' Party of Korea Central Committee political bureau on Sunday and his re-emergence as premier marks a further move by North Korea's young leader Kim Jong-un to reaffirm his grip on power.
The move does however leave Kim, the third of his line to rule the impoverished, nuclear-armed state, dangerously dependent on his aunt and uncle, who have reasserted control over the military in a purge.
"Pak Pong-ju works under the orders of Jang Song-thaek," said Cho Bong-hyun, an expert on the North's economy at the IBK Economic Institute.
"Is Pak a reformer? Well, Jang is an economy focused man, and Jang is the person who has tried to make the economy the centerpiece for the leadership."
Pak is a career technocrat who took the post of premier in 2003 to implement an ambitious economic reform policy that allowed autonomy in farm production and pricing liberalization, introduced in July 2002.
He was removed in 2007 when it became clear the steps aimed at boosting the impoverished state's economy, gripped by devastating famine in the 1990s, were not producing desired results and the North's military began protests at the cabinet, wielding greater power on state matters.
Jang, Kim's uncle, was also purged and has since been rehabilitated.
Jang is officially a deputy chairman of the North's powerful National Defence Commission, which Kim heads despite his lack of military experience. He is believed to be the real power behind the throne as it struggles to boost its economy.
Jang was on a high-profile tour of rival South Korea's industrial successes in 2002 and pointedly had the new premier Pak as a key member of the delegation just as they were mandated by former leader Kim Jong-il to rescue the ailing economy.
"Pak's appointment shows in no uncertain terms that the North wants to focus on the economy," said Yang Moo-jin of University of North Korean Studies in Seoul.
The appointment of Pak comes as North Korea is engaged in a war of words with the United States and South Korea, threatening to launch missile attacks on the United States and to invade the South.
The North's leader Kim said at the party meeting on Sunday that his country's focus will be to revive the economy and boost its nuclear arsenal.
The shrill rhetoric from Pyongyang is in response to a United Nations Security Council Resolution imposing sanctions for the country's February nuclear test and to a build-up of U.S. forces in South Korea as part of military drills.
The North says that Washington's moves are "hostile" and a prelude to an invasion.

Flying with kids (mine in particular) is always a little stressful but there are some things (i.e. people) that make it way worse.
As you guys know we flew home from Michigan a few days ago (more details on the trip tomorrow). My kids are not perfect angels on airplanes—or anywhere—but they've gotten to the point where they behave at about a B/B+. I'm OK with this. We're constantly striving for the A+ plus but, for now, so long as they are not those kids on the plane, I'm satisfied. The right mix of snacks and stickers and bathroom runs and movies makes it so that Nick and I can even read a few pages of Sky Junk or catch a nap. And most people on the plane don't hate us, which is extremely important to me both as a former childless traveler and as someone who cares way too much what strangers think of my parenting skills. Many people chat up my kids or ask us about them or tell us how cute/funny/polite they are. But as we were boarding the plane on Saturday and getting situated I had a run-in with the worst kind of fellow passenger: The one who takes one look at your kids' proximity to her, rolls her eyes, sighs and then puts up her super-sensitive, annoying-kid radar and waits for you to set it off. Which you inevitably will because you've now been set up to fail. You are the enemy. There is no pleasing this kind of passenger unless you suddenly realize you're on the wrong plane and get off. We were not on the wrong plane.
As any parent who has flown with children can tell you, there is a window of chaos during the boarding phase when you're getting to your seat, stowing carry-ons, figuring out who will sit where and, in our case, wiping down the seats to rid them of peanut residue (Alex is allergic). The parents are distracted and the kids are excited and there may be a seat bump or two. Or a shriek. This is normal. No one should be asleep yet, the effing plane is still at the gate and everyone is bumping everyone, adults included. Well, the woman in front of us started her twitchy and dramatic, "I'm trying to read" motions right away. I had a nervous knot tightening in my stomach, the way I imagine people who are afraid of flying feel. It sucked. Meanwhile, the guy next to Nick—who had a massive watch with more bling on it than I've ever seen and an "I'm somebody important possibly a music producer" vibe to him—loved our kids. He had laughed when Nora freaked out at Alex on the jetway ("Don't you touch my bag, Ali!!!") and I immediately thought, phew, this guy is cool. I was relieved when I saw him sitting close to us. I love those kind of people on a plane, the ones who don't hold you to such insanely high standards, and who put you at ease about the whole awful shit show of flying with kids. I'm on your side they say without saying it. You got this.
Sometimes, if the you're-going to-piss-me-off person looks like they have a slight sense of humor, I may engage: "Don't worry, they're pretty good." Or, "She'll fall asleep as soon as we takeoff" OR "Once we hit 10,000 feet, they'll be plugged in, promise." But there was no chink in this woman's armor. She looked angry. We made it worse. Once Nora was buckled into her car seat (we always bring her seat onboard so she knows she can't get up), I was getting stuff out of her bag to occupy her while whisper-explaining to Alex why he couldn't get the 10-foot bear sculpture he'd eyed in Sky Junk, and...Nora kicked this woman's seat. A few times. Not on purpose, not hard, but enough that the woman felt it. Enough that it would have annoyed me, too (hey, no one likes pain in the ass kids on a plane, right?). As soon as I realized (Nick is also hyper-aware of our kids' behavior on planes and alerted me from across the aisle), I grabbed Nora's feet, whisper-explained to her that she had to stop and that was pretty much it. But the woman was already doing a showy move from her seat to the middle seat, which was empty (and in front of me). I said, apologetically/bewildered: "Oh, no, you don't have to move, I've got her feet in my hand, she's not going to do it again." The woman just sighed and sat back in her seat (she wasn't with the guy on the aisle so it would have been really freaking weird for her to move). And so I sat there with my arm draped over Nora's leg to prevent any movement. I was a nervous wreck and they hadn't even shut the cabin door yet. Did I mention this was a one-hour flight? In the middle of a Saturday? And we weren't in first class? I'm not saying she should have to put up with any of my kids' antics at any time, but I hardly think the dramatics were called for.
As we were taking off, Nora said, "Goodbye Michigan, see you later" in her loud, raspy, New Yorker voice. Most people around us chuckled. (Jay-Z's boy, who had missed his first two flights which is why he was in coach--or so Nick eavesdropped--certainly did). I did too, then I quickly shushed her and the knot got tighter. I spent the rest of the flight draped over Nora like a blanket. I hated that woman for putting me on such an edge and for ruining the flight for me. I think if I had been able to relax, the kids would have been more relaxed, too. Ultimately, Nora got a B- (there were a few screeches and a window blind opening/shutting incident) and Alex got an A. They are a work in progress and believe me, we work on it. I used to travel a lot and I was not a fan of screaming/kicking/annoying kids on planes (who is?) and I may have even secretly rolled my eyes a time or two if I got seated next to one (karma?), but I never turned around and stared, I never huffed and puffed and I did always have a sense that it was way worse for the parents than it was for me. Now I know that's true. And on the rare occasion that I do fly sans children, I try to be super cool to any parents I see onboard. I'm rooting for you I say without saying it. Although there is my second least favorite person on a plane: The parent who allows their child to watch a movie or play a video game with the sound turned up and without headphones. Really?
OK, that's all I got. How about you guys? What are your thoughts on flying with kids and who you like/dislike as fellow passengers?

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Some tense moments for passengers aboard a small, private plane. More than a dozen crews were called out to the Blue Grass Airport early Thursday morning.
A plane requested making an emergency landing. It reportedly was circling to burn off fuel, before the decision was made to continue on to its destination. Officials at the airport say the plane was headed for Indianapolis.
It's unclear at this time what problems the plane encountered. We will continue to follow this situation throughout the day.

SRINAGAR, India (AP) — Police in Indian Kashmir have decided to drop attempted murder charges against a young woman accused of throwing stones at troops during anti-India protests two years ago.
The decision Wednesday came amid strong online protests.
Police officer Shiv Murari Sahai says Zahida Akhtar has been exonerated of charges of attempted murder and instigating protests.
Akhtar was arrested last Friday in Anantnag town and later freed on bail.
Her brother denied she threw stones at government forces during the 2010 protests that left 112 people dead, most by troops' gunfire.
Public opposition to Indian rule in Kashmir is now seen mostly in street protests, with an armed uprising having largely subsided. The Himalayan region is divided between India and rival Pakistan and claimed in entirety by both.

My Mommy War
The reader said she didn't want children. I urged her to reconsider. Here's what happened next.
Hundreds of people have written demanding an apology and a retraction for the "disgusting," "offensive," "hurtful," "appalling," and "shocking" reply I gave in a recent Dear Prudence column. The letter I got was from a woman in her 30s who was about to marry a wonderful man, and they did not want children. What should she tell friends and family members who were asking when they were going to have kids? I gave some advice on how to fend them off—then added five sentences to this effect: Now that her life circumstances were changing, I wrote, she might want to re-examine this decision not to have kids.
I expected my answer would annoy people, but I was surprised by the fury of the response. You would think my reply was the equivalent of running around the streets with a turkey baster full of sperm, impregnating happy childless women.
What I didn't say in the column was that I understood exactly how the young woman felt. In my 30s, I, too, was comfortably committed to being childless. I, too, had never felt the maternal imperative everyone promised me I would. I, too, looked at my friends with children and concluded, "No, thanks!" Then my circumstances changed when I fell in love with a man who wanted kids. I had to decide whether to let him go, or marry him and agree to have a child.
I knew that I hadn't thought too deeply about the implications of changing my mind when, at 5:30 one December afternoon, my obstetrician told me the baby would be born in about 30 minutes. I remember thinking, as I pushed, "Could we wait a few hours? I'll be more ready to be a mother at nine o'clock." The baby couldn't wait, and at 6:10 p.m. our daughter was born. Thus, I crossed over and became, in the parlance of my correspondents, a "mindless breeder."
The majority of letter-writers were not single but happily married and professionally successful—the people you'd expect would make wonderful parents, and in a previous generation probably would have. Many didn't just write about the adult pleasures of their childless (or "childfree") life—travel, restaurants, undamaged upholstery, sex in the living room—but expressed contempt for those deluded enough to want to reproduce. As one woman wrote: "My husband and I are childless by choice and I heartily encourage all younger friends to consider it. It is the most wonderful lifestyle, free of whining and sniveling and mini-vans."
What is going on when there is so much scorn for parenthood—the way a society perpetuates itself? Fertility rates are much in the news these days. The United States is rare among developed nations in that it is still producing children at a replacement rate. But many countries collectively agree with the people who wrote to me—that children are a tantrum wrapped in a diaper and not worth the trouble. So, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Spain, among others, are going down the demographic tubes, with shrinking pools of young workers to support growing masses of seemingly immortal retirees.
Many correspondents were past childbearing years and assured me they had no regrets. If I had stayed childless, I would also have felt I had dodged a sippy cup to the head. But the reason I wanted the still young-enough, happy woman who wrote to me to give another thought to the possibility of children is because I know you can thoroughly enjoy your childless years—and also be grateful every day for becoming a mother.
In our society parents do a wonderful job of portraying the difficulties of having children: the financial burdens, the time drain, the guilt, the exhaustion. But we do a lousy job of getting across something else about parenthood: It's fun! When you are experiencing parenthood from the inside, there is an overwhelming pleasure in the funny, fascinating things your children do. When my daughter was 2, she put her arms around me as I was kissing her goodnight and said to me, "Mommy, you're a wonderful husband." That was better than any of the movies I hadn't been to since she was born.
I noticed something else in the letters from nonparents that I had experienced myself: They have an unrealistic sense of the passage of time—or at least the passage of parental time. They seem stuck on the notion that being a parent means forever climbing a Mt. Everest of diapers (and what happens to these punctilious couples if a spouse ends up needing diapers?). Diapers pass in a snap. It all goes so fast. When our daughter turned 6, my husband and I realized with a pang that we were already one-third of the way through the time she would live with us. And I worry that the writers have an unrealistic sense of their own passage through time—believing they'll forever feel that nothing is more important than building their career or taking that next trip.
In Maybe Baby, a collection of essays on whether to have children, Michelle Goldberg, a married writer in her 20s, decides she'll probably stay childless because studies show that childless couples are not only happy, but that having children tends to ruin a marriage. Michelle, maybe I'm an asterisk in these reports, but I can't recall a single fight my husband and I have had over our daughter (we have occasional fights, but not about her). We still have adult conversation, we go to the theater, we even have sex (granted, not in the living room). But the other night, my daughter, now 10 years old and no diapers in sight, was reading a book on American history and asked my husband about a confusing episode. A week in Paris could not have made my husband happier than telling her everything he knew about Iran-Contra.
Some of the people who wrote to me said it was irresponsible to bring a child into such a lousy world. Making that same point was a letter to the editor in the Washington Post in response to Robert Samuelson's column on declining population. In the letter, the writer said that after reading Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb 35 years ago he decided not to have children, a decision he encouraged others to make because it "may be one of the best ways to say yes to the future." This man didn't have children because of a book that turned out to be wrong! Even Paul Ehrlich, who predicted that by the 1970s the world would be in the grip of catastrophic famine, had a child!
I am one of four siblings, and I come from a hash of an unhappy family. Not passing on more unhappiness was one of the reasons I wasn't going to have children. But we all somehow ended up in solid marriages, and together we have produced four children. The oldest is a midshipman at the U.S. Naval Academy, the youngest is the world's most delightful 1-year-old. They are a better way of saying yes.

Prof. Gershenson Named Emerging Education Policy Scholar
The Thomas B. Fordham Institute and American Enterprise Institute has named Assistant Professor Seth Gershenson a 2013-14 Emerging Education Policy Scholar.
The Emerging Education Policy Scholars (EEPS) program brings together a cohort of up-and-coming scholars for workshops with top policymakers, researchers, and elected officials. Many of the most prolific junior scholars in education policy are alumni of the program, including faculty at Harvard, Stanford, NYU, and Vanderbilt. Seth's selection for the program is strong evidence of his potential to make important contributions to education policy research.
"I am thrilled to be participating in the EEPS program," Gershenson said, "and I look forward to interacting with the diverse group of scholars, practitioners, and policymakers associated with the program."
