Phil Jackson became the latest member of the Lakers' extended family to weigh in on Dwight Howard's departure.
It wasn't as rough as Shaquille O'Neal's assessment, but there was a barb or two, predictably, from the former Lakers coach Sunday.
"He left a distaste in Lakerland," Jackson said of Howard on Twitter. "The Lakers will be fine.
"What DH brings to the game is power and D. This past year didn't show due it to rehab and confusion. If he is better [off] an Astro, so be it."
Calling Howard an "Astro" instead of a Rocket is typical of Jackson's humor.
Jackson also predicted Pau Gasol would fit better into Coach Mike D'Antoni's style of offense.
Jackson's comments weren't as cutting as O'Neal's.
The former Lakers center continued his years-long criticism of Howard by saying Howard couldn't stand the "bright lights" that came with being a key part of the Lakers and was better-suited to go to a "little town" such as Houston.
"That's right, little town, I said it," O'Neal added.
Of course, the big question is what Kobe Bryant will say about Howard's departure. He "unfollowed" Howard on Twitter the day of Howard's decision, a statement all its own.
The Lakers are slowly trying to build a roster for next season. Emphasis on slowly.
They are intrigued at the chance of getting Lamar Odom back, not just for name recognition but also because the Lakers need some players who would gladly take minimum salaries.
Odom, 33, made $8.2 million last season but might have to take a pay cut to $1.4 million, the veteran's minimum for a player of his experience. The Lakers could also sign him via their "mini" midlevel exception of $3.2 million.
Odom spent last season with the Clippers, averaging four points and 5.9 rebounds before becoming a free agent last week. The Clippers have turned their attention to veteran Antawn Jamison, whose signing would decrease their need for Odom's services.
Odom helped the Lakers earn two championships and won the NBA's sixth man award.
The Lakers currently have eight players under contract for a total of $77 million, including Metta World Peace, who they are leaning against waiving via the one-time amnesty provision.
They don't want to add any long-term contracts, knowing well their only player under contract for 2014-15 is Steve Nash.
"It's as wiped-clear of a roster as Miami had in 2010," said NBA salary cap expert Larry Coon.
Miami was able to get far enough under the cap to sign LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, leading to two championship seasons. The players agreed to take slightly less money to make it happen.
As for Howard's departure, Coon was "ambivalent" from a financial viewpoint.
"On one hand, he was the centerpiece of their rebuild," said Coon, who runs cbafaq.com, a heavily referenced website within the basketball industry. "On the other hand, you can make the strong argument that his prime was a few years ago and a max salary might not work out so well."
Howard would have been under contract with the Lakers until the end of the 2017-18 season.
Times correspondent Eric Pincus contributed to this report.

DALLAS — Therapeutic dogs will now be on hand to provide stress relief for travelers at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
The new program was officially launched Thursday, with dogs making their debut on an orange carpet at the airport.
"For many, flying can be an uneasy experience," said Ken Buchanan, executive vice president of Revenue Management at DFW Airport. "The DFW K9 Crew can change that perception. There's nothing more soothing than the presence of a friendly dog, and we hope interacting with these animals will put anxious passengers at ease."
Each dog will have a handler and its own collectable trading card, which will include the dog's name, age, weight and training certifications.
The dogs will be located at designated areas in Terminal B and roaming the terminal with his or her's handler.
The airport is encouraging travelers to take pictures with the dogs and using the #dogsofDFW.
"Customers who post three photos to social media over a period of time will earn 'DFW Terminal Bucks' or DFW-branded items," read a statement from the airport.

The 2013 season hasn't been too kind to the San Diego Padres. They'll head into this final stretch of games missing out on the playoffs yet again, with injuries playing their part in derailing a season that already featured relatively low expectations.
The Padres have seen key offensive players, including the likes of Carlos Quentin and Kyle Blanks, miss time, with Quentin missing significant time and already having been shut down, spend time on the disabled list. Jedd Gyorko has seen his first year negatively impacted by injury.
Also in the injury mix is Cameron Maybin. The outfielder, who looked like he had revived his career since joining the Padres in 2011, took a step back after a career year in that first season. Looking to rebound this year, Maybin has found himself in a lost season.
The 2013 season will go down as one that essentially never happened for Maybin, for all intents and purposes. He has managed to appear in only 14 games, with knee and wrist issues consuming him this year. It was announced earlier this week that he'll miss the remainder of the year after undergoing wrist surgery.
It remains to be seen whether or not those wrist issues will linger for Maybin moving forward, but it definitely has to be a cause for concern for San Diego. At least he's taking care of it now, rather than playing through the rest of the year and chancing those issues carrying over into 2014.
Whether or not Maybin will be able to rebound remains to be seen. He hasn't proven to be the star that his status as a top prospect might have indicated, but he's a good defender in the outfield, and a nightmare on the basepaths. If he can rebound from this, he's a building block for the Pads. Right now, though, the story is about the 2013 season that basically never happened for him.

As a Speech-Language Pathologist and DIR/ Floortime professional specializing in children with autism spectrum disorders, I'm constantly searching for creative ways to "open windows" for the delightful children and families with whom I work. Many of these children with autism present unique differences in their sensory processing, in terms of hypo-responsiveness or hyper-responsiveness. I've found incorporating a wide variety of artistic experiences can be incredibly beneficial. It strengthens the sensory processing and communication of the children, while meeting them at their individual developmental levels and incorporating their preferences. The rich affectual, emotional components to art experiences are invaluable in bringing about that "light in their eyes," engagement, and reciprocal communication.
Recently, I had the opportunity to be part of an "art" experience with one of my little ones that was life-changing and life-giving for many in Little Rock, Arkansas.
As a fundraiser for Autism Speaks and A-Camp (our camp for children with autism and their peers here in Little Rock), a local art gallery, M2 Gallery, hosted an art showing and auction. Brilliant artists from the state and country donated art for display and sale. The gallery owners also invited several of my young patients to create pieces.
As I thought of children on my caseload who had recently shown great responsiveness to art within our therapy sessions, my mind immediately went to 6-year-old Elijah. This precious young man had just begun enjoying expression with finger paint on huge strips of suspended paper. As he explored the sensations, engagement, delight, and a myriad of spontaneous, meaningful, reciprocal utterances emerged.
As I discussed what might be most representative of Elijah with his mother, she and I both thought of strings. For Elijah, strings of all shapes, sizes, and textures bring great joy, comfort, rhythmicity, and synchrony. We decided to let him express himself with strings on the canvas for sale. As he squeezed the first drops of paint on the canvas and pulled the strings through the paint to create his work of art, we held our breath, wondering what his feelings might be about altering many of his beloved strings. What delightful surprise it was to us all as he pulled string after string through the paint for 45 minutes, leaving many of them glued behind on the canvas. His mother and I named the piece "Strings from the Heart."
What we thought might just be a minimal contribution to a very gracious fundraiser became Elijah's fun "trip to fame" in the next several weeks. As publicity grew about the fundraiser for A-Camp, time and again the works of amazing artists were focused. Each time, Strings from the Heart was right there! Newscasters interviewed and conveyed the value of reaching children like Elijah with the emotion and sensory experiences of art.
No price could be placed on the joy and pride Elijah's family members experienced. No doubt, his puzzle piece would've taken top price at the auction, but not a soul was willing to outbid his loving grandfather who stood beaming by the piece. What a great reminder it has been to me as a therapist to continually search for and incorporate whatever means might reach a child with autism and help him continually grow in a shared world of engagement and communication!
Rachel Morse, CCC-SLP, is an SLP in private practice in Little Rock, who has owned Building Bridges – Pediatric Therapy Services for over 25 years. She loves providing relationship-based, family-centered therapy for children with neurological differences. In the summers she also helps lead A-Camp, a 6-week therapeutic day camp for children with autism spectrum disorders.

|Condition or disease
|Ankylosing Spondylitis
|Drug: infliximab
|Not Applicable
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology that involves the sacroiliac joints, axial skeleton, entheses and peripheral joints. Chronic inflammation of entheses leads to new bone formation, syndesmophytes and ankylosis of joints, primarily in the axial skeleton. This leads to a dramatic loss of range of motion and to disability. The disease may also have nonskeletal manifestations including uveitis, carditis, pulmonary fibrosis and cardiac conduction abnormalities.
Current therapy for AS is mainly with NSAIDs and physiotherapy which are often insufficient. Clinical outcome with conventional therapies has not been good, with 50-70% of patients progressing to fusion of the spine by 10 to 15 years. Treatment with the TNF-alpha blocking agent infliximab was shown to have definite clinical efficacy in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis on a short- and a long-term basis over 2 years.
There is limited data available on the efficacy and safety of long-term anti-TNF therapy for 3 and more years, the outcome after discontinuation of anti-TNF therapy and the effect of anti-TNF therapy on radiographic progression over a long period of time.
The ASSERT trial was a 2 year international randomized placebo controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety ot treatment with infliximab in patients with active and severe AS. The EASIC trial is initiated to follow the European participants of the ASSERT trial for at least an additional 2 years of treatment combined with systematic data collection.

About two minutes flat. That's the typical unloading speed for Kinze Harvest Commander Grain Auger Wagons. And, the new "smaller" 650 edition is true to form — not just in speed, but also in its classic Kinze low-profile design.
The new Kinze 650 Harvest Commander Grain Auger Wagon holds up to 700 bushels (level-full, not heaped) and unloads in approximately two minutes and 15 seconds (300 bushels minimum).
The 650 uses no chains or sprockets and requires little daily maintenance. The dual auger unloading system features "on-demand" positive drive, using a 4-band multi-stand V-belt, to insure natural unrestricted grain flow, greater efficiency and better horsepower utilization.
The large 16 inch full-pitch vertical augers (18 inch O.C. tube) feature industrial full-tilt flighting and are easy to remove for inspection or replacement. A carrier bearing is mounted within an eight-inch diameter center tube to reduce grain restriction and wear. A spring-loaded upper bearing — pioneered by Kinze — allows top and bottom sections to easily self-align when going from fold to unload position.
An over-center mechanism locks the auger in the unloading position.
Unloading height is 12.5 feet; auger reach, up to 4 feet, 11 inches, varies with tire selection and width setting of the adjustable axle.
The vertical auger is direct-driven through a cast iron 90 degree gearbox with precision-cut gears to create a 2:1 drive reduction ratio. The input shaft of the gearbox also powers a full-length 14-inch diameter horizontal floor auger, which is easily removed for service through a plate-covered opening at the rear of the wagon.
An over-running clutch allows the auger system to freewheel, protecting the tractor and wagon against possible shock damage.
The 650 Harvest Commander comes with a choice of tires: 24.5×32 16-ply R-3 (diamond tread) or 30.5×32 16-ply tires with R-1 (traction tread) or R-3 (diamond tread). Transport width is just 11-feet, or 11.6-feet with the larger 30.5×32 tires set at the narrow setting.
Wheel spacings are adjustable.
The 650 has a very smooth, free-flow design. There are no joints or "ledges" inside the tank, and the outside joints create a drip-edge to help prevent moisture from "wicking" into the grain. Forty-degree side and rear panel slope improves grain flow.
Small, rounded wheel wells provide excellent tire-to-grain tank clearance. Durable powder-plating creates a smooth, finished appearance and superior protection.
A full safety grate covers the lower portion of the tub. A built-in "slide" tool helps facilitate clean-out using extension rods that are stored inside the frame rail.
Also available is an optional Electronic Scale Package with Digi-Star EZ 2000 (printer-ready) Indicator. Options for the scale system include a dot-matrix printer or a Data Down Loader Kit for transferring load data.

Swimming Pool Blog
by Rob Cox, October 1, 2010
Swimming Babies, Concerned Parents
Before introducing your child to a pool, please make sure your baby is over 6 months old. Before 6 months of age, the fear is that babies immune systems are not developed enough to handle the illnesses that can be spread while swimming. The wait should be even longer if you are considering introducing them to a lake or an ocean - around a year or more. There is also an issue when it comes to babies being able to regulate their own body temperature. Of course, all children are different and will adjust to the water differently, but just about all babies are ready to learn to swim after 6 months.
That out of the way, now its time to consider getting your baby into the pool. Typically, you will want the pool to be warm, 82-84 degrees, and monitor your childs reaction to it. If the water feels chilly to you, it will seem really cold to your child. Make sure to monitor whether your child feels cold or starts shivering, and if so, you should get him out of the water immediately. Too much heat can be a danger also! Children overheat much faster then adults, so hot tubs, spas, and really heated pools should be avoided. This is actually true for most children until the age of 5!
Most pools now require babies to wear a swim diaper. These will help ensure the health of all swimmers in the pool. Pay attention to your babies schedule of bowel movements. The best time to enter the water may be after a good cleaning and a fresh diaper.
While outside of the pool, always hold your baby and avoid fast movements. This of course implies to inside the pool as well, but accidents outside the pool can also pose as huge threats to your baby. Never go past areas in the pool that are deeper then your hips, as you might lose good footing in the pool and this provides a cushion of safety for your child if something is to happen. Unmonitored children in water is the leading cause of drowning death for young children. Always hold your baby. Using a baby pool float can be a good transitional "vehicle" to help both baby and parent enjoy the water safely.
Recent studies about the effects of chlorine and byproducts found in some sanitizing products have some parents concerned. Further studies by the European Respiratory Journal have shown that children that spent many hours in a pool before the age of two were twice as likely to suffer from bronchiolitis or suffer from asthma. On the other hand, pools or bodies of water without chlorine may lead to bacteria that can cause diarrhea - painful and dangerous to an infant. Babies should be thoroughly cleaned after all swimming activities as well to make sure they are not carrying around anything they may have picked up from the pool. This is especially true of chlorinated pools as the fumes may still affect a baby once it has dried on the skin. Make sure to stay cautious with your child and keep your pool time less then twenty hours until they are at least two of age. And no hot tubs!
Children with serious illnesses should not be introduced into the pool at all. Sick children tend to be most susceptible to waterborne bacteria and airborne illnesses. This is because their immune system is already struggling with a painful and serious illness. This includes sick children who are coming out of cancer related remissions, as hepatoblastoma. By no means should these children enter a pool at all!
Teaching your baby to swim is one of the greatest gifts a parent can give to their child. See our related blog post on how to teach infants to swim. While you are teaching your baby how to swim, teach yourself how to be a safe parent! Safely Monitoring your baby in the pool requires focus and effort. Even if they are in the baby pool, only 1' deep, you should be on the edge of the pool with them, enjoying this time together.
Be cautious of the distractions in our daily lives that can cause you to lose focus on your child in the water. As their confidence level grows in their swimming ability, don't allow your own confidence of their ability to create a false sense of security.

Stratasys Off 5% Despite Q1 Rev Beat; Citi Urges Buy the Dip
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Shares of 3-D printer maker Stratasys (SSYS) are down $4.79, or over 5%, at $89.53, after the company this morning reported Q1 revenue that topped analysts' expectations, and reported in line for profit, and reiterated a forecast for revenue and earnings this year below consensus.
Other 3-D names are all lower on the report, including 3D Systems (DDD), down 27 cents, or half a percent, at $47.42; ExOne (XONE), down $2.12, or 6%, at $32.03; and VoxelJet (VJET), down 39 cents, or 2.8%, at $13.60.
Revenue in the three months ended in March rose 54%, year over year, to $151 million, yielding EPS of 40 cents.
Analysts had been modeling $143 million and 40 cents.
For the full year, the company reiterated a view for revenue of $660 million to $680 million, and EPS of $2.15 to $2.25, first offered back on March 3rd. That is below the average $681.8 million and $2.21 the Street has been modeling.
During the conference call following the report, CEO David Reis said the company was pleased with the results, noting "strong demand for our higher-margin products," and stating "organic" revenue, meaning, excluding acquisitions, had risen 33%. He noted that the consumer products business, MakerBot, saw a 79% jump in revenue, to $21 million.
Among the first notes out of the chute today is that of Kenneth Wong of Citigroup, who has a Buy rating on the shares, but who cuts his target to $125 from $135, noting investors won't pay as high a multiple for growth these days.
Writes Wong, there was "some messiness" in the report, and "perception of a downward earnings revision" given that the company said its tax rate will be at the low end of expectations this year.
But Wong urges inestors to buy the dip, saying "execution" may improve from here:
We view a pullback as a buying opportunity as we feel management likely took their eyes off the ball during M&A talks and would expect better execution going forward. We also believe near term catalysts outweigh potential negatives. 1) Guidance post Solid Concepts likely to be better than expected; 2) Early order flow for Makerbot Mini/Z18 setting up solid Q3/2H; 3) We expect positive sector inputs to come out of Rapid Conference (6/9-6/12). While operating assumptions are largely unchanged, we have lowered our PT to $125 to account for lower TV multiple (15x to 13x) investors are now willing to place on growth companies.

Wildlife and Pets
The UK has a diverse and unique range of wildlife, but it's not something we can take for granted. Over-exploitation (such as overfishing), habitat loss and the impact of non-native species all pose a threat as, of course, does the impact of climate change.
Defra offers advice and guidance to pet owners, and also develops and enforces legislation to protect pets against cruelty. This includes:
Travelling with pets
The Pets Travel Scheme allows certain pets (cats, dogs etc) to enter the UK without quarantine.
Protecting pets from cruelty
The Animal Welfare Act 2006 marks a major development. It is no longer enough to prevent cruelty to animals; owners must now take active steps to ensure their welfare needs are met.
Dangerous dogs
Defra developed the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, which makes it an offence to allow any dog to be dangerously out of control in a public place, and prohibits outright certain types of dog, such as the Pit Bull terrier. We recently completed a public consultation on whether the Act has adequately protected the public and encouraged responsible dog ownership.
Dangerous wild animals
The private keeping of certain dangerous wild animals is regulated through a licensing scheme administered and enforced at local authority level. Those species that are considered to be dangerous are listed in a Schedule to the Dangerous Wild Animals Act 1976 and require a licence: such licences are only granted when certain criteria are met and following an inspection of the animals proposed accommodation.
Protecting and managing wildlife
We all value the wildlife we have. It inspires and enriches our lives, contributes to our wellbeing and underpins the ecosystem services we need to survive. We meet our national and international obligations to conserve and protect rare and vulnerable species and make sure they are effectively protected and managed in a fair and humane way.
Wildlife crime and smuggling
Wildlife crime in the UK can threaten endangered plant and animal species, can cause animal's pain and suffering, can be linked to other serious crimes such as firearms offences, and can affect local communities. The UK is also an international market for the legal and illegal trade in wildlife. International wildlife smuggling has become a multi-billion pound industry, threatening local economies and livelihoods as well as native populations. The UK actively participates in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in supporting European and international activities to tackle these crimes.
Invasive non-native species
Invasive non-native species are plants or animals that have been introduced into the UK by humans, either deliberately or accidently, can have a significant impact on our environment, economy and health. Our approach to this issue is based on the government's Non-Native Species Framework Strategy.
Regulation of zoos
Zoos in Great Britain are regulated by the Zoo Licensing Act 1981 and Council Directive 1999/22/EC (the Zoos Directive). In England, Defra is responsible for the policy side of zoo legislation while its Executive Agency, Animal Health is responsible for maintaining a list of Zoo Inspectors. Responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the licensing system and implementation of the Act rests with local authorities.

Miracle Berry Fruit Tablets
Warp your taste buds
- Dissolve a tablet on your tongue to change your tastebuds
- Makes even a lemon taste like sweet candy
- Fun for "tasting parties" with friends
Miracle Fruits (sometimes called Miracle Berries) have been a secret wonder of the world for centuries. Though they were first documented by a French dude in 1725, they'd been consumed for many generations prior. They were eaten before meals to make the meals taste better. "How?" you ask. By making sour and bitter foods taste sweet. "But how?" you scream. The truth is, science doesn't completely know (it has something to do with the protein miraculin that bonds to your taste buds). Science Update! Scientists are getting closer to knowing exactly what miraculin does. It bonds to your sweet receptors and does wicked cool things. Click here for the science!
Now you know we wouldn't sell you something without trying it first. So, we did. Limes suddenly tasted like the sweetest, most perfect limeade ever. Oranges (already quite sweet) tasted like they were imported from an Alien world or plucked straight from the Garden of Eden (truly, words can't describe the life-altering sensations caused by these little tablets). Snozzberries in our wallpaper tasted like . . . ok, they were just boogers (tip to self: don't lick wallpaper). But seriously, these little things are incredible. You can join the new craze of hosting "flavor tripping" parties. Everyone gets a dose of Miracle Berry, and then you taste things. You can even help your diet with Miracle Berry Fruit Tablets - healthy yucky foods will taste like candy and you won't crave sugar-laden (i.e. fattening) candy anymore. See...it's a miracle!
Please note: Highly acidic foods (like pure lemon juice) will taste wonderful, but will still harm your mouth if you drink too much.
Miracle Berry Fruit Tablets
- Dissolve a tablet on your tongue and sour and bitter foods will taste sweet.
- Flavor-bending effects can last up to 1 hour.
- No harmful side effects (other than wanting more).
- Each tablet is 3/8" in diameter (10 tablets per box).
- Ingredients: Miracle Berry powder and corn starch - nothing else!

WASHINGTON — Seven California Democrats broke with the majority of their party and President Obama on Friday to support Republican-sponsored legislation that would allow insurance companies to continue to offer health plans next year even if they fail to meet the requirements of Obamacare.
"The president promised Americans that they could keep their health plans, and today I voted to keep that promise," said Rep. Julia Brownley (D-Oak Park), who voted for the measure, which passed 261-157.
Among California Democrats, the split was seven for the bill and 28 against.
Brownley was joined by fellow Democrats Ami Bera of Elk Grove, Scott Peters of San Diego, Jim Costa of Fresno, John Garamendi of Walnut Grove, Jerry McNerney of Stockton and Raul Ruiz of Palm Desert in supporting the measure.
PHOTOS: 2013's memorable political moments
Their support came after fellow California Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman of Beverly Hills, who helped write the 2010 healthcare law, spoke out against the GOP-written bill. Waxman warned it would "take away the core protection" of the Affordable Care Act and create a "shadow market of substandard healthcare plans."
But Ruiz, one of four California Democratic freshmen who supported the bill, said in a written statement that "one of the ways that we need to improve the Affordable Care Act is by making sure that people can keep their existing healthcare policies if they choose to do so."
Golden State Republicans, who have exhibited less party unity in recent months than the state's Democrats, were united in their support of the measure, though John Campbell of Irvine did not vote.
"Republicans believe that we must try and help Americans who have been harmed by Obamacare,'' House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Bakersfield) said.
Democratic Reps. Xavier Becerra of Los Angeles, George Miller of Martinez, and Tony Cardenas of Los Angeles also did not vote.

You guys know those people on Facebook, or Myspace... etc who have those horrible pictures that they take in the mirror with their camera? And you can see gross things behind them like the toilet? Oh, and you can see nasty stuff on their mirror?
Well, I have a rant about that because I'm sick of seeing those pics. Camera + Bathroom Mirror = Horrible Picture. Okay?
P.S If you are offended easily, don't read this. Lolz! It's just making fun of the people that do that, or even you maybe. And don't feel bad, I even have a picture of me when I did it because *I* thought I was cool. O_O

Communicating Haskell Processes: The Long And The Short Of It
The Long
It's been a long time coming, but I have completed the final corrected version of my PhD thesis. It's entitled, rather unimaginatively (and against received wisdom), "Communicating Haskell Processes". (Communicating Haskell Processes, or CHP for short, is my concurrent message-passing library for Haskell.) A lot of what's in there has been on this blog before. The new bits are the slightly revised CHP design (which will be in the forthcoming 3.0.0 release) and operational semantics in chapter 3. It's freely available online for you to read, all 250+ pages.
The Short
Meanwhile, I've also put together a condensed version of the new material — including mobile (suspendable) processes, and automatic poison, neither of which I've written about anywhere else — into a paper for the Haskell symposium, which is a more palatable 12 pages. I'm not going to copy out the whole paper into this post, but here's a quick summary of automatic poison.
Poison is a way to shut down a process network: processes should catch poison (which can occur if a channel you are using becomes poisoned) and poison all their own channels, spreading the poison throughout the network until all of the processes have shut down. The standard idiom is to surround your whole code with an onPoisonRethrow block that poisons the channels:
deltaOrig :: Chanin a -> [Chanout a] -> CHP () deltaOrig input outputs = (forever $ do x <- readChannel input parallel_ [writeChannel c x | c <- outputs] ) `onPoisonRethrow` (poison input >> mapM_ poison outputs)
Automatic poison puts all this poison handling into an autoPoison function that wraps your process with the poison handling, so for the above we can substitute this instead:
deltaAuto, deltaAuto' :: Chanin a -> [Chanout a] -> CHP () deltaAuto = autoPoison deltaAuto' deltaAuto' input outputs = forever $ do x <- readChannel input parallel_ [writeChannel c x | c <- outputs]
I haven't saved masses of code there, but I think the latter version is more readable. Read the paper for more details.
Comments are welcome on the paper, which is due on Monday (6th June). Comments are slightly less welcome on the thesis, because it's already been sent for binding! If there is a mistake, I'm happy to correct it in the online version.
August 5, 2011 at 6:52 am
Any word on when CHP will be workable via the latest Haskell Platform?

This map of the Florence Stockade was drawn by Robert H. Kellogg, who was held as a prisoner of war at the Florence Stockade.
1) Locate the stockade walls, the deadlines, the hospital, and the brook. Why do you think the stockade was built with the stream flowing through it? Why might they have wanted streets?
2) The prisoners lived on the east side of the stream. Every day, the guards made them march across the bridge (number 7 on the map) so that they could be counted. Why do you think it was important for the guards to count the prisoners every day?

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — If the New York Giants are going to get back into the NFC East race, they are going to have to limit Washington's running game and make the Redskins' top-ranked defense work more than 22 minutes.
After giving up late scores in losing their first two games, the Giants need their defense to step up in Thursday night's nationally televised game, particularly the run defense.
Washington (1-1) is playing old-time football these days.
Coach Jay Gruden's team is pounding the ball inside with Alfred Morris and rookie Matt Jones and that's translating to some unbelievable time of possession statistics. The Redskins are averaging nearly 38 minutes of...

Success in the league may have eluded Leeds in recent years but since our time out of the top flight there have been some memorable escapades in the FA Cup. We've played some of the biggest teams from Premiership home and away, Manchester United, Spurs, Arsenal, Liverpool and what's more we've beaten them too. They have reminded us of our days at the top of English football, of a packed Elland Road and taking 9,000 fans away. Days which may be set to return should we remain at the top of the Championship table. Here are just a few moments from the FA Cup over the last few years including that famous January 3rd but what is your favourite?
Leeds 2, Tottenham 1 - FA Cup 4th Round 2013
Spurs were fourth round visitors to Elland Road in 2013 and Leeds sent them crashing out of the FA Cup. Some poor defending from Spurs saw Luke Varney break away down the left on 15 minutes and coolly finish past Brad Friedel to give Leeds a one nil lead. The 50th minute saw another Leeds player break free from the Spurs defence. This time Ross McCormack who checked his run in the area to beat the defender before curling a left footed shot home to double Leeds' lead. Clint Dempsey got a goal back for the Londoners soon after but they failed to chalk up another and Leeds went through to the fifth round.
Arsenal 1, Leeds United 1 - FA Cup 3rd Round 2011
Leeds took 9,000 fans away to the Emirates back in 2011 to watch Leeds play Arsenal in the third round of the FA Cup, and we very nearly won. Arsenal were undoubtedly on top but when Denilson brought down Max Gradel in the box ten minutes into the second half Leeds had a chance to take the lead. Robert Snodgrass stepped up and slotted the ball home from the spot to give Leeds the lead. Luciano Becchio nearly doubled the lead but a 90th minute Cesc Fabregas penalty took the game to a replay. Leeds lost the replay 3-1 despite a 37th minute screamer from Bradley Johnson.
Manchester United 0, Leeds United 1 - FA Cup 3rd Round 2010
January 3rd remember the date… Probably the most famous of Leeds United's recent 'giant killing' escapades. Manchester United hadn't lost in the 3rd round or been knocked out of the FA Cup by a team in a lower division under Alex Ferguson's reign. This day was the day Jermaine Beckford broke their hearts. A Jonny Howson long ball from well within his own half found Beckford, his first touch took the ball away from him but he was quick enough to get there before Wes Brown, a left foot touch took the ball through Brown's legs and past Kuszczak, the ball trickling almost in slow motion towards the goal before nestling in the right hand side on the net. Leeds, one nil! Just to round things off Richard Naylor kicked Wayne Rooney up in the air, a good day all round.
January 3rd, Remember the Date

Start running to enhance your brain power!October 21, 2016 12:36
A recent study suggests, moderate exercise, such as running helps in remembering what you learned. Students should do moderate exercise rather than taking part in a passive activity such as playing computer games if they want to make sure they remember what they learned.
The study was conducted by the researchers from the University of Applied Sciences, Upper Austria. Lead author Harald Kindermann said that, "I had kids in an age where computer games started to be of high interest. I wanted to find out how this and hence the increasing lack of exercise in fresh air impacts their ability to memorize facts for school."
According to the study, researcher and his colleagues asked 60 men aged 16-29 to memorise a range of information, from learning a route on a city map to memorising German-Turkish word pairs. They were then split into three groups: one group played a violent computer game, Counter Strike, one went for a run and one (the control group) spent time outside.
The researchers compared how well the people in each group remembered the information they were given. The results showed that the runners performed best, remembering more after the run than before. Those in the control group fared slightly worse, and the memories of people who played the game were significantly impaired.
Kindermann added, "Our data demonstrates that playing a video game is not helpful for improving learning effects." "Instead it is advisable for youngsters, and most probably for adults too, to do moderate exercise after a learning cycle."

I'm well aware that a certain amount of research effort is expected of Stack Overflow users before they post any new questions, but I'm not sure just how much research effort is considered adequate.
Recently, I've noticed that there's been some controversy about the issue of how much research effort is considered necessary. I asked a question about the syntax of the Go programming language because I had found no search engine results that offered a clear answer, even after searching for almost an hour.
Nonetheless, one Stack Overflow user was apparently dissatisfied with the amount of effort that I had put into this question, and they replied to my question with the following comment:
What's your point? You think it would take you hours? Well that's just sad. It was clear in the google results if you took more than a few seconds to look. It's just really very poor to go running to someone for help instead of at least trying on your own. I can see it from a small child, but from an adult, it's really just obnoxious. Now you're whining about it. Seriously man, grow up.
Should I take this advice seriously, and refrain from asking for help even when I am not able to answer my own question with a reasonable amount of effort?

The McCormick nameplate, primarily associated with collectible antique tractors, may one day soon grace new tractors at Case dealerships around the world. Because of a European Union requirement, Case had to sell some of its production facilities to complete its merger with New Holland. Case sold certain technical, design, manufacturing and commercial rights to McCormick tractors, as well as a Case-IH factory in Doncaster, England, to Italian tractor manufacturer Landini SpA. Landini plans to use that acquisition to bring McCormick Tractors International Ltd. back as a global tractor manufacturer in its own right.
It's yet to be seen whether new McCormick tractors will make it to American shores. One hurdle may be to persuade dealers to sell McCormick CX and MC (formerly MX-C) tractors, which McCormick now owns. The factory currently builds these tractors for Case in Case colors for sale outside of Europe. McCormick has rights of access to existing Case dealers to sell the 50- to 100-hp CX and MC tractors. Further up the power scale, McCormick also plans to build its own 100- to 170-hp Maxxum derivative. The company has yet to determine pricing and distribution of its new Macs. Eventually, more information will be available at www.mccormick-intl.com.

All The Normandy residents may submit normal non-emergency maintenance requests with this form. Please include all the information requested, as it is needed to send the form. We will respond to your request promptly.
In case of a maintenance emergency, please call 614-406-8986.
An emergency is defined as: fire, gas leak, sewer backup, stopped up toilet (if you only have one), no water, no heat, or anything that may cause personal or property damage. Thanks!
For your convenience, there are washers/dryers in every home.
To keep the interior of your refrigerator smelling fresh, clean with a baking soda and water solution. The exterior can easily be cleaned with a simple window cleaner.
Food particles left on dirty dishes may jam the dishwasher. Make certain dishes are scraped and rinsed under running water prior to placing the dishes in the racks. Please do not overload your dishwasher and be sure to use detergents made for automatic dishwashers.
To turn the icemaker on, make sure the metal bar is pushed down. To turn the icemaker off, release the metal bar to the upward position.
Always turn on the cold water before starting your disposal and feed waste in slowly. To keep your disposal in good working order, do not put metal, glass, plastic, grease, paper, cigarettes, bones, banana peels, oyster or clam shells, celery, corn husks, etc. in your disposal. A good rule of thumb is if you can't chew it, neither can your disposal. If your disposal stops, check the reset button on the bottom of your disposal. If it does not restart, please contact the office and the maintenance team will make the appropriate repairs.
If there are any pipes leaking, faucets leaking or toilet tanks continually running, please report it to the membership office.
If the temperatures are below 25 degrees, please do the following to prevent your pipes from freezing: turn on faucet to allow a slow continuous drip, leave vanity and kitchen sink cabinets open and keep the apartment thermostat set at no less than 65 degrees
The sewer system is adequate to handle all normal drainage, however flushing the following items will result in damage: paper towels, facial tissue, disposable diapers, sanitary napkins (disposable Tampons are not disposable in the commode and much sewer damage is caused by them). Should the commode overflow, turn off the water supply to the tank by turning the handle located under the tank, and contact the membership office.
An individual thermostat controls each apartment. To ensure comfort and conserve energy, the thermostat should be set at one temperature and left there. HVAC filters will be replaced, by our maintenance team, semi-annually or upon your request. Return air grills should be kept clear of furniture, boxes, clothing, etc. as this would interfere with the delivery of air to your apartment and will impair the cooling and heating performance.

Jim Burr has not received any gifts yet
Neal Pollack is the author of The Neal Pollack Anthology Of American Literature and was asked…
The Onion: Is there a God?
Neal Pollack: God does not exist, unless you are my mother-in-law and are reading this, in which case I definitely do believe that He exists, and will raise my children accordingly. But if you're not my mother-in-law, and she's not reading this, then He does not exist.
Jim says...No disrespect meant to my mother-in-law. I just liked the quote when I first came across it because it captures an unfortunate truth. Identifying yourself as a non-theist is a delicate thing... can`t be sure how people will react and what the consequences might be. This really is too bad.

Emphasis is given to practical and concrete ways to teach all types of music in public school settings. Additionally, the Department teaches courses to elementary education and early-childhood majors. These courses emphasize the development of musical skills and the integration of music into the various elementary education and early-childhood professions.
After admission to the Music Education Program (audition required), majors typically spend the first two years developing their personal musicianship and performance skills and taking general education courses. In their junior year, majors must pass a "junior-standing" test and begin the professional sequence of courses which leads to teacher certification. Upon graduation and successful application for certification, majors receive a music teaching certificate for all grade levels (K-12) Choral and Instrumental. West Chester University graduates have found employment in virtually all states and are highly sought as music teachers.

Call them clowns if you want.
But Rex Ryan's going to make sure you know that's not how they're playing.
Ryan and Jets officials are sufficiently tired of the cracks about their circus atmosphere (trust us on that one) that they're using the criticism as motivation.
That's why he gathered his players last week and challenged them to not provide evidence that would point to such a conclusion.
"It seems like that's how people look at us," Ryan said, via Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com. "I was like, 'You can think that all you want, but we see something totally different.' I do — and I know this football team does. Our opponents will take us seriously, I promise you that."
Several players said Ryan's speech, prior to the win over the Bills, as a passionate one.
"It made it a bigger deal for us to go out there and prove to each other that we had each other's back," linebacker Aaron Maybin said.
It's also moved them into the unusual spot of being quiet.
Cimini said starters present in the locker room in Monday's media period were in the single digits, with no sign of linebacker Bart Scott after he snapped "you treat us like a f—— joke," on Sunday.
"The big thing Rex was hammering last week was, he didn't want us in the mode of proving outsiders wrong," Maybin said. "He said it has to be about the people in this locker room."
Ryan's point is a valid one. They have played good football under his watch, with 30 wins since he took over as head coach in 2009. Only eight teams in the league (New England, New Orleans, Green Bay, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, San Diego and Philadelphia) have more over the same span.
But they've also been active at times in pursuing the attention their neighbors get for winning championships. At times, the drama, much of it by their own creation, has overshadowed the product.
That's not always Ryan's fault. But he's going to make sure to use the perceived slight as motivation all the same.

After our trip to Camps Bay Beach (pictures here), I had collected a bag full of sea shells. I was particularly attracted to the spiral shells, however most were broken. When I got home, I started dreaming about what I could do with them (instead of leave them in a plastic bag as I have done with every other seashell collection I've collected). I decided to make a garland with the seashells and chose crochet to make a stronger base for the garland. I kept putting off the project until today!
|A peek inside my bag of seashells.
|Washed and ready to sort.
Clean the shells- I just rinsed them off and dried then since they were "dead" shells. Here is a guide on how to wash all kinds of shells. I let them dry in the sun, you could also paper towel dry them. I ended up having 29 suitable shells. I sorted them into "larger/prettier" and "average". I had 20 "average", 9 "larger/prettier" ones. I am not sure what type of shells these are, if you know, please share!
|29 seashells.
Seashells with holes in them
Garden Twine
Crochet hook of your choice, I used size K/6.50mm
To begin, I left a 12 inch tail (to attach it to things), tied a knot and then crocheted ten stitches (watch the tension because the garden twine is rather bulky and scratchy).
|Hook and beginning stitches.
I put the shell in between the hook and the working twine.
|Hook through the shell.
Then I put the hook through the shell and then pulled the twine through.
|Hook and pull the twine through the shell.
Now you have a loop on your hook and the working twine is still in back. Go up and over the next side of the shell and hook the twine and loop is through.
|Make another loop around the shell.
|Four stitches between shells.
|Completed garland!
I used 10 of my "average" shells. Then added my nine "larger/prettier", and finished with my last 10 "average" shells.
After adding the last shell, I crocheted 10 stitches, knotted the end, and left a 12 inch tail.
|Hanging garland.
My hubby's blog is here.

BWW Student Center's School in the Spotlight: Binghampton University
The BroadwayWorld Student Centeris a comprehensive Student Database listing college and university performing arts programs across the country making it easier for prospective students by showcasing programs searchable by schools, location, degrees and concentrations.
The Student Center also offers a show calendar of college and high-school productions where schools can upload photos, videos, cast lists, articles and other media content for each of their shows. BWW will be combing through all content regularly and will launch weekly feature stories highlighting productions locally and nationally that have provided us with this extra content.
The Mainstage Season typically features four productions, including one musical, which are directed by regular faculty members and guest artists.
Casts and crews are comprised of both undergraduate or graduate students and are occasionally augmented by guest artists. The Studio Season varies from year to year in content and personnel involvement as might be expected. There are four levels of Studio Productions: in-the-works, showcase, thesis and faculty-directed.
Up next as part of the MainStage season is Sarah Ruhl's DEAD MAN'S CELL PHONE directed by Elizabeth Mozer. The production runs March 8 thru 16 at the Watters Theater in the Fine Arts Building.Also slated for this year is COSMOGONY, an annual dance show directed and choreographed by JoEllen Kuhlman and running April 12-14. A MIDSUMMER NIGH'S DREAM will play April 26 thru May 5 and is co-directed by Tom Kremer and Rodrigo Nunez.
