The United States is rapidly becoming the very first "post-industrial" nation on the globe. All great economic empires eventually become fat and lazy and squander the great wealth that their forefathers have left them, but the pace at which America is accomplishing this is absolutely amazing. It was America that was at the forefront of the industrial revolution.
It was America that showed the world how to mass produce everything from automobiles to televisions to airplanes. It was the great American manufacturing base that crushed Germany and Japan in World War II. But now we are witnessing the deindustrialization of America. Tens of thousands of factories have left the United States in the past decade alone. Millions upon millions of manufacturing jobs have been lost in the same time period. The United States has become a nation that consumes everything in sight and yet produces increasingly little. Do you know what our biggest export is today?
Waste paper. Yes, trash is the number one thing that we ship out to the rest of the world as we voraciously blow our money on whatever the rest of the world wants to sell to us. The United States has become bloated and spoiled and our economy is now just a shadow of what it once was. Once upon a time America could literally outproduce the rest of the world combined. Today that is no longer true, but Americans sure do consume more than anyone else in the world. If the deindustrialization of America continues at this current pace, what possible kind of a future are we going to be leaving to our children?
Any great nation throughout history has been great at making things. So if the United States continues to allow its manufacturing base to erode at a staggering pace how in the world can the U.S. continue to consider itself to be a great nation? We have created the biggest debt bubble in the history of the world in an effort to maintain a very high standard of living, but the current state of affairs is not anywhere close to sustainable. Every single month America does into more debt and every single month America gets poorer.
So what happens when the debt bubble pops?
The deindustrialization of the United States should be a top concern for every man, woman and child in the country. But sadly, most Americans do not have any idea what is going on around them.
For people like that, take this article and print it out and hand it to them. Perhaps what they will read below will shock them badly enough to awaken them from their slumber.
The United States has lost approximately 42,400 factories since 2001
About 75 percent of those factories employed over 500 people when they were still in operation.

People exercise. Well, most everyone I know does, so most people must. Right? Well, according to a recent report from the Department of Health and Human Services [HHS], my friends and I (and all of you I'm sure) are really in the minority. In fact this study shows that a whopping seven out of 10 people do not get enough exercise.
An even more disturbing bit of news from HHS is that recent estimates indicate that 38.8 million adults are considered obese (meaning their body fat is 20 percent above desirable weight), and, in addition, there has been an increase in body fat levels in children and youth over the past 20 years. All of this in the face of increased awareness of exercise, low-carb diets, and even fat-free Twinkies.
OK, so we've found out through these sobering statistics that more people are sitting on their couch than on an exercise bike. That is a good thing. Yes, you read that right. Well, not the fact that these people are not taking care to make themselves healthy, but, the fact that as an industry, fitness is fairly successful (or so we believe), while only bringing in 30 percent of its possible audience. Unless you are playing baseball, hitting .300 is pretty low [heck, Mike Piazza leads all active hitters with a .325 lifetime batting average — higher than the fitness industry]. If health clubs are thriving and growing with these numbers, just imagine the potential success when the fitness industry somehow taps into the audience that is just sitting there (quite literally) and gets them involved and enrolled in fitness facilities.
Ah, there's the rub. How is the industry going to do that? I don't have the answer. I wish I did (since it no doubt would pay better than editing a magazine). But I believe that it is possible. Of course, we won't get everyone into the clubs — or even working out at home — just like we won't get everyone to eat right or stop smoking, including current members and some staffers (you know who you are).
But I believe that if the industry — that includes clubs, vendors, retailers and anyone connected to making a living by encouraging fitness — was to work together on a campaign to encourage fitness (think of the pork industry, it has the country convinced it offers health food) and, in turn, use of health clubs, that number could rise to 50 percent or higher. Now, batting .500, that's impressive, and, more importantly, profitable.

A quarter century of change
Science writer looks back on Alaska
Not too long ago, I passed a milestone that doesn't really mean much, but is a nice round number. Twenty-five years ago, I drove a Ford Courier pickup from upstate New York to Fairbanks, Alaska. I rolled into town in August, started college in September, and have lived here ever since.
Twenty-five years isn't such a long time, but it's longer than I've lived anywhere else. Scientists consider one-quarter century a long-term study, and I wish I followed that professor's advice long ago when she urged I stake out a forest plot and measure its changes through the years. And I should have picked up a few pounds of gold then when it was $326 per ounce instead of $1,600.
Other things have changed in 25 years. Back then, Canada had no Nunavut and Alaska had a Sheldon Point (now the village of Nunam Iqua). The oil tanker now known as Oriental Nicety plowed through Alaska waters with Exxon Valdez on its hull, soon to become famous.
I remember a few things vividly from that time. The scent of burned spruce was in the air on the lonely road to Alaska; 6.5 million acres of Alaska burned that summer, about six times Alaska's yearly average of more than 1 million acres per year. Last summer, less than 300,000 acres burned.
After a few weeks in town, I watched on TV inside the University of Alaska Fairbanks' Wood Center as a baseball trickled through Boston Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner's legs at a pivotal moment in the 1986 World Series. Outside, the ground was hardening on a chilly October night. A few years later, I felt the sting of my coldest-ever Alaska air; in January 1989, my home thermometer bottomed out at minus 56 degrees Fahrenheit. Even though it was right next to the wood stove, my dog's water dish froze to the floor.
Despite a recent trend toward warmer temperatures in Alaska and elsewhere, the coldest calendar month I've experienced was January 2012, when Fairbanks' average temperature was minus 27 degrees.
To my great disappointment, I was driving through Montana in 2002 when I heard on the radio of a magnitude 7.9 earthquake in Interior Alaska (where I was going). The Denali Fault Earthquake was one of only two Alaska earthquakes of magnitude 7 or greater in the past 25 years. Though I was here in December 2007, I have no story for the 7.2 earthquake in the western Aleutians, which was too far away to shake books from my shelves. I have, though, detected a few of the 1,382 earthquakes greater than magnitude 5 that have occurred in and near Alaska since 1986.
Alaska volcanoes have erupted 58 times since I've lived here; Mount Cleveland has blown 11 times in that span, but the most notable for their proximity to Anchorage have been Mount Spurr in 1992, Mount Redoubt in 1989 and 2009 and Augustine Volcano in 1986 and 2005. Ash from an Alaska volcano has never stranded me in an airport, but Kasatochi came close in 2008 when I traveled a few days after its ash cloud cancelled or delayed 44 flights in and out of Anchorage.
Alaska's permafrost, as monitored in boreholes along the length of the trans-Alaska pipeline, has for the most part warmed in the last quarter century, leaving much of it in Interior Alaska within one degree of thawing. But, for some unknown reason, permafrost at the Yukon River Bridge and Livengood has become a bit cooler.
The first glacier I ever stepped on, the Canwell in the Alaska Range, is much smaller now than it was then. Glaciers worldwide have shrunk by about the height of a two-story house in the last 25 years, with Alaska glaciers among the biggest losers.
Alaska's human population has increased at a lesser rate than the whole world, which has absorbed 2 billion new souls in the last quarter century (from 4.92 to 6.92 billion). Alaska is still home to more caribou than people, but we are catching up — there were 722,718 of us in 2011, compared to the 550,000 when I cleared the border station at Beaver Creek and chugged the few hundred miles to a new home.

Why See Whiskey Myers?
Die Rockin' tour 2019
The Palestine, TX-based Southern rock and Red Dirt country band kick off 2019 with their Die Rockin' tour. First formed in 2008 by lead Cody Jennings and his friend Cody Tate, they took inspiration from the musical stylings of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Hank Williams Jr., and Waylon Jennings, but soon moved into formulating their own unique take on Southern rock music. Their biggest single to date, Ballad of a Southern Man, was spawned by their second album, Firewater in 2011.
The seven-piece band comprises Jennings on vocals and acoustic guitar, Tate on lead guitar and backing vocals, guitarist and backing vocalist John Jeffers, bassist Gary Brown, drummer Jeff Hogg, percussionist Tony Kent and Jon Knudson on keyboard and fiddle.

State Route 315 through Delaware County is one of central Ohio's most scenic drives -- but this summer, lines of stopped traffic could dominate the scenery.
State Route 315 through Delaware County is one of central Ohio's most scenic drives -- but this summer, lines of stopped traffic could dominate the scenery.
Portions of the route will be shut down for two major construction projects in the coming months.
The first closure is coming in mid- to late July, when construction is set to begin on a new $1.3 million roundabout at the intersection of Orange Road and Route315.
Route 315 will be closed for about seven days, though Orange and Carriage roads will be closed at the intersection for 45 to 60 days during construction.
Unlike a stop sign or traffic signal, the roundabout won't significantly slow down traffic traveling along Route 315 -- but it will make the intersection safer by virtually eliminating the chance for head-on collisions, said Rob Riley, project manager for the Delaware County engineer's office.
The long-delayed project originally was planned to coincide roughly with the replacement of the Orange Road Bridge, finished in 2009.
But concerns over the environmental impact of the project, located along the protected scenic Olentangy River, postponed construction of the single-lane roundabout.
Riley said construction is scheduled so it won't overlap with the start of a second, much-anticipated project set to begin later this summer. Workers will add turn lanes in all directions at the intersection at state Route 750 and Route 315, one of the region's most notorious bottlenecks, located about a mile south of the Orange Road intersection.
"We've been working closely with ODOT to make sure our closure of 315 won't conflict with ODOT's plan (to add turn lanes)," Riley said.
ODOT will start construction for that project in August or September.
Currently, cross-traffic makes it difficult for north- and southbound commuters to turn left onto Route 750, also called Powell Road, backing up traffic along Route 315 for a half-mile or more during rush hour.
The crossings at Route 315 and Route 750 won't be closed at the same time during the project.
At a meeting May 20, Liberty Township officials worried construction of the turn lanes would overlap the President's Cup golf tournament in Dublin, set Oct. 1-6.
Events such as that one typically funnel a high volume of traffic up and down Route 315, township Administrator Dave Anderson said.
"The traffic pattern on that will go right through Powell, right in the middle of the October construction period," Anderson said, adding: "The fallout will be interesting. You can only put so much traffic on Riverside Drive."
Another concern is that cars headed north on Route 315 toward Powell Road will be directed to turn west onto Jewett Road for a detour during construction.
Jim Cirigliano, the township's assistant fiscal officer and a member of the homeowners association for the adjacent Calumet Farms subdivision, said the township should consider installing a three-way stop at the intersection of Liberty and Jewett roads to make traffic manageable.
"There's concern from my board members about being able to get out of Calumet Farms," Cirigliano said. "A three-way stop is better than nothing."

Nvidia has updated the CUDA 5 pervasive parallel computing platform and programming model in a production release version. Targeted at scientific and engineering applications driven by GPU acceleration technology, the company's developer zone has now seen more than 1.5 million free downloads.
CUDA has been popular up until now, so Nvidia almost certainly knew that it would need to bring something new to the table to ignite developer interest in the technology. As such, new support for dynamic parallelism has been included along with GPU-callable libraries, the firm's own GPUDirect technology support for RDMA (remote direct memory access), and the Nvidia Nsight Eclipse Edition integrated development environment (IDE).
The firm cites approval from an unnamed pool of developers who it says have witnessed "dramatic application acceleration and improved programmability" with the pre-release version of CUDA 5.
With GPU-accelerated applications in use in the defense and aerospace industries, this type of programming model is capable of processing images, video, and "sensor data" such as radar. One customer reports success with streaming sensor data directly into the GPU with low latency using the GPUDirect support for RDMA on new Kepler GPUs.
CUDA 5 has been designed to take advantage of the Nvidia Kepler compute architecture. A technical PDF on the company's website refers to Kepler as a GPU comprised of 7.1 billion transistors to produce a "computational workhorse" with teraflops of integer, single precision and double precision performance, and the highest memory bandwidth.
"GPU threads can dynamically spawn new threads, allowing the GPU to adapt to the data. By minimizing the back and forth with the CPU, dynamic parallelism greatly simplifies parallel programming. [It also] enables GPU acceleration of a broader set of popular algorithms, such as those used in adaptive mesh refinement and computational fluid dynamics applications," said the company.
Expanded Feature Set
Other new features include a CUDA BLAS library to allow developers to use dynamic parallelism for their own GPU-callable libraries. They can design plug-in APIs that allow other developers to extend the functionality of their kernels, and allow them to implement callbacks on the GPU to customize the functionality of third-party GPU-callable libraries.
The "object linking" capability provides an efficient and familiar process for developing large GPU applications by enabling developers to compile multiple CUDA source files into separate object files, and link them into larger applications and libraries.
GPUDirect technology enables direct communication between GPUs and other PCI-E devices and supports direct memory access between network interface cards and the GPU. It also significantly reduces MPISendRecv latency between GPU nodes in a cluster and improves overall application performance.
NVIDIA Nsight Eclipse Edition enables programmers to develop, debug, and profile GPU applications within the Eclipse-based IDE on Linux and Mac OS X platforms. An integrated CUDA editor and CUDA samples speed the generation of CUDA code, and automatic code refactoring enables easy porting of CPU loops to CUDA kernels.
An integrated expert analysis system provides automated performance analysis and step-by-step guidance to fix performance bottlenecks in the code, while syntax highlighting makes it easy to differentiate GPU code from CPU code.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- At his request, President Barack Obama is ending his inaugural oath with: "So help me God."
Those four words are not legally or constitutionally required, unlike other federal oaths that invoke them as standard procedure.
SPECIAL SECTION: Inauguration coverage
Historians have wrangled over whether George Washington established precedent by adding the phrase on his own during his first Inaugural acceptance, but the Library of Congress website states he did.
Abraham Lincoln was reported to have said it spontaneously in 1861 and other presidents over the years have followed suit.
A Bible is traditionally used in administering the oath.
Obama took the official oath on Sunday at the White House with his left hand on the family Bible of his wife, Michelle.
At Monday's ceremonial swearing-in at the Capitol, he will use Bibles from Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr.
Obama took the oath with the same Lincoln Bible in 2009 when he made history as the first African-American president.
The Constitution lays out the exact language to be used in the oath: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Four years ago, a California atheist, Michael Newdow, objected and went to federal court to prevent Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts from prompting the president-elect to repeat the "so help me God phrase."
Newdow, along with several non-religious groups, argued the words violate the constitutional ban on government "endorsement" of religion.
The high court ultimately rejected the lawsuit two years ago, and no such legal challenges are expected this time.
Lyndon Johnson's 1965 swearing-in marked a change from tradition.
His wife Claudia, known batter as Lady Bird, held the Bible, a job previously managed by the high court's clerk.
Spouses have since had the honor.

When I was a kid, the only kind of Girl Scout cookies my mom ever bought were Samoas. Do you remember these? They were sweet, rich, and gooey cookies, with caramel, chocolate and coconut. As much as I loved those cookies, there's no way I'd eat them now. Not only are they not vegan, they are chock full of hydrogenated oil and sugar. I have sure missed them, though!
Well, imagine my excitement at seeing this post on Kati's blog a while back. She said she had made cookies that were reminicent of a certain Girl Scout cookie and as soon as I read through the recipe I knew exactly which ones she meant... Samoas!
Well, I tried them and they were... AMAZING. I've never been this excited about a cookie that I baked. The best part? These cookies are extremely healthy and even detox-friendly, with 100% whole grain flour, no refined sugar, and no refined oil. (Except for the tiny amount of chocolate chips I threw in there, of course.) The brown rice syrup shines here, imbuing these cookies with a deep caramel flavor. To make them look even more like Samoas, you could drizzle them with some melted chocolate, but these cookies are so rich, they don't need any embellishment.
Here is Kati's recipe, with my notes in orange. **Make these NOW!**
Pseudo-Scout Cookies - Vegan Samoas!
(adapted from Cooking the Whole Foods Way by Christina Pirello)
yield: 25-30 cookies (I got around 20 cookies)
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 3/4 cup white whole wheat flour (or whole wheat pastry) I used whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup ground pecans
1/2 cup chopped pecans I decreased this to 1/4 cup and threw in 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
1 cup brown rice syrup (or a combination of brown rice syrup and maple syrup) I used 1/3 cup agave nectar and 2/3 cup brown rice syrup
1/2 cup extra virgin coconut oil
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all ingredients, using your hands at the end if necessary. Drop rounded spoonfuls onto lightly oiled baking sheet (I used parchment paper- watch out, these cookies spread out quite a bit during baking!) and bake for approximately 14 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
- When working with coconut oil, be sure that all other ingredients are at room temperature or else you will get oil lumps. It may help to mix the oil with shredded coconut before adding other ingredients. My coconut oil was solidified, so I microwaved it for about 10 seconds.
- Do not overmix! Your cookies will be very tough if you do. Mix until ingredients are just combined.
- Do not overbake! Your cookies will be hard as rocks. Brown rice syrup tends to make cookies crunchy, so be aware of this and proceed accordingly. Increase the proportion of maple syrup to create a chewier cookie or decrease baking time. When you take out your cookies after 14 mintues, they will be so soft, you will be tempted to let them bake some more, but don't do it! These will firm up quite a bit. I'd say definitely use agave or maple syrup as part of your sweetener if you want a more chewy cookie.

Builder Blocks: Restaurant - Example Customizations
When a Builder child theme other than BuilderChild-Entree is active, it is possible to get the Menu listing page and course archive pages to look like in Entree.
For the sake of this tutorial, we are going to use BuilderChild-Default as our active theme and http://localhost/builder3 as the site URL.
We added 2 menu items in "Appetizers" course and 1 menu item in "Sides". When we http://localhost/builder3/menu/, it looks like:
This Menu listing page uses active theme's archive.php.
Copy the following from BuilderChild-Entree theme directory into BuilderChild-Default directory:
- template-menu-item-listing.php
- loop-menu-item-archive.php
- restaurant-menu-item directory
- images/bg.jpg (optional - If you want to apply Entree theme's body background image)
- images/date-bg.png
- images/price-ribbon-right.png
Create a blank Page titled "Menu" and select "Menu Item Listing" as its Template.
Now when we refresh http://localhost/builder3/menu/, it is going to look like
After adding this CSS code at the end of BuilderChild-Default's style.css, http://localhost/builder3/menu/ is going to look like
When we click on the hyperlink for any course, let's say "Appetizers", it takes us to http://localhost/builder3/course/appetizers/. This is the taxonomy term page.
It is going to look like
This taxonomy term archive page also uses active theme's archive.php by default.
Copy BuilderChild-Entree/restaurant-course to BuilderChild-Default directory and then it will look like.
Enabling commenting in single location entry pages
1. Ensure that the latest version of Builder Blocks plugin is being used. See this to learn how to properly update plugins.
2a. Preferred: Add the following code to your child themes functions.php file
function add_comments_to_location() { add_post_type_support( 'restaurant_location', 'comments' ); } add_action('init', 'add_comments_to_location');
2b. Alternatively, if 2a fails: edit wp-content/plugins/builder-block-restaurant/lib/post-types/2.location.php.
Note: Plugin customizations will be erased during plugin upgrades. So remember to re-do this when you update the plugin.
'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt' ),
'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'comments' ),
3. Edit wp-content/themes/BuilderChild-Entree/restaurant-location/single.php.
<?php //comments_template(); // include comments template ?>
<?php comments_template(); // include comments template ?>
4. Go to My Theme -> Settings -> Comments. Place a tick mark for Locations and Save Settings.
Displaying course description on course term archive pages
If you would like to show description on Course Term archive pages like http://sitename.com/course/appetizers/, follow this:
Edit wp-content/themes/BuilderChild-Entree/restaurant-course/archive.php or wp-content/themes/BuilderChild-Entree-Pub/restaurant-course/archive.php (depending on whichever is the active theme)

 <?php the_post(); $title = builder_get_tax_term_title(); if ( is_paged() ) printf( '%s – Page %d', $title, get_query_var( 'paged' ) ); else echo $title; rewind_posts(); ?>

 <?php $terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'restaurant_course' ); foreach ($terms as $term) { echo $term->description; } ?>

Then add the following at the end of child theme's style.css (WP dashboard -> Appearance -> Editor):
.loop-description { font-size: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: 0.3em; }

Year in Review: Progress made toward twin prime proof
Surprising advance sparks flurry of work on mathematical conjecture
Some pan for gold, some pan for prime numbers. Yitang "Tom" Zhang may have found both.
Zhang, a mathematician at the University of New Hampshire, stunned the mathematical world in May when he reported a major step toward solving one of the oldest outstanding problems in number theory, called the twin prime conjecture (SN: 10/19/13, p. 38).
For more than 100 years, mathematicians have known that prime numbers — such as 7 or 17, with no divisors except for themselves and 1 — get sparser and sparser as the numbers get larger. They are like flecks of gold in a stream that is gradually running out of gold.
Nevertheless, mathematicians believe you can always find two

Orange woman arrested for death of sisters
The Orange County Sheriff's Office arrested 26-year-old Amanda Jean Lewis, of Orange, for the November 2010 deaths of Cristin, 12, and Katie Grubbs, 11, on Monday, March 14.
According to the Department of Public Safety, Lewis' blood alcohol level was over the legal limit at the time of the accident, when she crossed into oncoming traffic on Highway 105 in Vidor, crashing into the vehicle of Grant Grubbs, of which to sisters were passengers. The girls died at the scene and their father suffered broken ribs.
Lewis was arrested for two counts intoxication manslaughter and bond was set at $50,000.

On Wednesday I was very kindly invited to attend the new AddressingHistory website (http://addressinghistory.edina.ac.uk/) launch at the National Library of Scotland. I've already blogged with a short video of the event's Nicola Osborne yesterday, but now time for some more detail...
The event started at 2.00pm and included several presentations, mainly linked in some way to the project, though not exclusively. If there were new buzzwords that I learned from the day, they were "crowd sourcing" and "georeferencing". Various definitions for crowd sourcing include 'delegating a task to a large group', or 'a process in which readers submit individual reports that are collected into a larger dataset for use in reporting a story'. Georeferencing can be defined as 'to design something's existence in physical space, relative to a standard reference grid'. I thought I'd briefly list those, as everyone was merrily using the terms in the way that I never do!
Addressing History is a site that uses historic Edinburgh maps which have been matched up or georeferenced to a modern Google map. Entries from three directories - 1784/85, 1865 and 1905/06 - have been pegged to the relevant locations on these maps. The combination provides for a potentially powerful search tool - if I want to search for all photographers in 1865 and then compare to the same search in 1905/06, I can perhaps observe a shift in the location of the photographic community in those eras, for example. The crowd sourcing comes into play in the way that the general public is now being asked to interact with the site, to help improve the work of the OCR (optical character recognition) scanning and more - in the same way that the Australian newspaper site from the National Library of Australia allows for users to go in and make corrections to its OCR scans which are displayed in parallel with the digitised images.
The event started with Professor Robert Morris from Edinburgh University, perhaps an odd choice for the first talk in that he defined many of the flaws of the AddressingHistory site before the AddressingHistory folk could actually define what the site was! However, there was a serious point to his talk. The new site is still very much a beta project with much development still to go through, and his talk raised many of the challenges that the project has had to contend with and which it still has to deal with - not least of which the use of OCR which at times has experienced a 40% error rate. There are also several restrictions and quirks of the directories themselves that can create some issues - the occupation search field, for example, is not much use if the women listed in a directory are not listed with an occupation, and the fact that it is difficult to compare like with like between directories, as the directories themselves changed so much from one version to the next. The professor's summary of the site was that it was "a ship ready for launch but still not quite ready for sea". An interesting presentation, but I'll admit to not being quite sure whether the good professor's glass was half-full or half-empty!
Stuart McDonald and Nicola Osborne then took the floor- both work for EDINA and are heavily involved with the project. Stuart explained that the AH project had been funded by JISC from April-September 2010, and partnered by the the National Library of Scotland, which sourced the Post Office Directories(or 'PODs' as they were called throughout). Nicola mentioned that the first phase of the project was to physically link the data with the maps, and that the next stage now was to launch the site and to ask the public to help "get the data up to scratch" - the site itself went online officially at 3pm during their chat. It was announced that EDINA will continue to support the project for at least the next year, and that models were currently being investigated for the longer term future of the site, possibly through donations. But now is really the evangelising phase - get the word out, and show the potential of the site. Nicola also mentioned that she is particularly interested in further guest posts for the AH site's blog.
Professor Richard Rodger of Edinburgh University then took the floor to talk about the Visualising Urban Geography project at http://geo.nls.uk/urbhist. This is like a much bigger version of Addressing History, in that it is trying to link data from various sources to contemporary maps. An extraordinary project, but rather than have me attempt to define it, visit http://geo.nls.uk/urbhist/examples.html for several examples of projects being worked on!
There then followed a presentation by Helen Chisholm on the Statistical Accounts of Scotland, as hosted online by EDINA. I've used the accounts a lot, but not the subscriber's version of the site. Very interesting additional features, but I will post on this on my Walking in Eternity blog (http://walkingineternity.blogspot.com/) in the next few days. Suffice to say that there are some developments on this front, so stay tuned.
Then followed a master session on georeferencing from the NLS's Chris Fleet. Chris explained how sites such as Google carve up the world using a programme called Map Tiler, and how this forms the backbone of several current NLS mapping projects. In addition to the OS maps online at the NLS website, he also explained that the library has a map collection called OS Mastermap available at the buidling but not online, which holds the most detailed OS maps in Britain. Other projects using georeferenced map dat from the NLS include the gazetteer site at www.scottish-places.info, Heritage Paths at www.walkingthroughtime.co.uk, the Portable Antiquities Scheme site at http://finds.org.uk/, the Society for All British and Irish Road Enthusiasts site at www.sabre-roads.org.uk (the history of roads - amazing site!), ScotlandsPlaces at www.scotlandsplaces.gov.uk, the Stravaiging Around Scotland site at www.stravaiging.com and many more, a few of which I had never heard of before but which I will be plundering in due course! Future mapping additions to be added to the NLS's own maps website will include 6000 sheets from the OS 6 inch and 25 inch maps from the 1890s-1940s, as well as many Bartholomew's maps.
Native Uisteach Kenny Beaton then gave a talk on the Tobar an Dualchais / A Kist o' Riches project, accessible online at either www.tobarandualchais.co.uk or www.kistoriches.co.uk. This is a £3 million audio digitisation project which ran from 2006-2010 and which has digitised 12,000 hours of Gaelic and Scots recordings (the equivalent of 3 1/2 years of listening). The material includes 10,000 hours of recordings from the School of Scottish Studies, the National Trust's Canna Collection (400 hours of recordings by John Lorne Campbell, inclusing material in Nova Scotia), BBC Scotland output from 1950-2005, and more. Each recording was digitised at 4 times the quality of a CD for archival purposes, requiring some 12 terabytes of storage. Not all is available online, but you will find 50,000 tracks available, and free of charge. Although the site does not officially launch until December 9th, it is up now - well worth a visit.
The most enjoyable talk of all was by the National Library's Ines Mayfarth. Ines gave a talk on her work to digitise the 750 Scottish directories from the 1770s to 1911 for the Internet Archive, covering Edinburgh, the Lothians, Glasgow, Stirling, Perth and Kinross, Dundee, Angus, Aberdeenshire, Invernessshire, Moray, Renfrewshire, Bute, South Ayrshire, Inverclyde and Dumfries. As well as material from the NLS, various partner organisations are helping to plug gaps in the NLS coverage, though Ines did mention that the Mitchell in Glasgow was still to be convinced! Hopefully the Mitchell will get fully on board, because frankly, the state of some of the directories at the Mitchell leaves a lot to be desired (some of their directories are literally falling to bits), and digitisation should really be a priority. Ines and her team scan 24 images per minute, and she describes the OCR accuracy of the scans to range between 50% and 90%. To help with searching, the NLS is creating a new index of the 1st three letters for every surname on each page within each directory, and the first books will be made available on the NLS website by Christmas, in the family history pages area, and by Autumn of next year a dedicated site will be launched for all the directories.
It was a great event centred around Addressing History, and an exciting glimpse of what the NLS sees as the way ahead with some of its key projects. Thanks to the team for the invite, and best of luck with the project's furture development, because it has some seriously useful potential, not just for academia but for the humble family historian also!

A New York taxi company owner makes enough money to not only live near Monaco but also to buy a Tesla Roadster. More shocking? He wants his neighbors to actually know how he made his money with a taxi-liveried Tesla.
The anonymous exploiter of lost tourists and underpaid immigrants alike apparently owns a fleet mostly made up of Escape Hybrids, so in his mind we're sure the connection between not-terribly economical taxis and an electric supercar painted to look like a cab makes total sense.
Missing the Humor, Le Blog Auto points out the electric-two seater wouldn't make a very practical taxi, largely due to the inability of magnetic signs to stick to the carbon bodywork. We'd add that the lack of trunk space and long recharge time should also be considered before any enterprising individuals attempt to make a business out of this. Also, there's the whole "no back seat" thing. [Le Blog Auto via Green Car Reports]

I cannot say that is an accurate interpretation of my comments. Anyone can say anything and claim it is authentic. And it may be as far as it goes. But everyone has a fair amount of programming and indoctrination that they likely do not recognize. Whatever programming and belief systems one holds can and often does color their insights.joe wrote:There are many Christians who will say they have experienced Christ in their lives. They won't necessarily refer to the Bible. Based on what you are proposing, one should hold what they are saying as true because they have said they experienced it directly. Of course what they describe is understood by them through the filter of Christian doctrine, so then what?
That is why what others say is 'truth' is best taken as a pointer at most and not as gospel regardless of the certainty behind it. The most reliable authority is one's own inner guidance. That said, it may have to be cultivated to get and maintain clarity. My inner guidance is no less colored by my own life experiences, as is anyone else's. A pointer can indeed be valuable, but only to the degree it awakens more direct insight withing the one considering it.
Indeed it can. It depends on the clarity one perceives their inner guidance. It's not simply on or off. It's how well one can see through the fog of their own thought and belief structures. How well they can become attuned to their own inner Source. Often those who came through a particular religious doctrine speak in context of that doctrine with some clarity that is quite insightful.There are also those who gain followers by claiming they are hearing God directly and transcribing His words for themselves and others, or who are acting on the direction of God, and what they teach or claim often corresponds to Christian doctrine.
It's also true that Law of Attraction will tend to bring the kind of understandings that one is most interested in and focused upon. Ask how does X doctrine work, and amazing insights into the doctrine tend to show up. Be careful what you ask for. The nature, intensity, and desire for answers tend to bring answers related more to the question than still greater understandings that may be available.

If you have been accused of driving while under the influence (DUI) it is critical to take the matter seriously. A conviction can have a serious impact on your life. It can affect your job, your insurance rates, security clearance, driver's license and your criminal record. That's why it is critical to work with an experienced and knowledgeable DUI defense attorney.
At DeThomasis & Buchanan we handle DUI cases based on a team approach, working together to build strong and effective defenses for our clients. Together, we address all aspects of the legal problem from the initial traffic stop to the collection of blood and breath test evidence. Whether the case ultimately proceeds to trial, is resolved through pre-trial motions to dismiss and/or exclude evidence, or through a reduced negotiated plea or diversion into the DUI deferred prosecution program, our firm has the experience to attain the best resolution for our clients.
Each of the attorneys at our firm have greater than 25 years defending DUI cases. Our complete focus is on defending you against DUI charges and protecting your freedom and driver's license. Whether the DUI charge is a first offense, repeat offense, or involves accident, injury, or death, our firm is prepared to defend you.
In addition to the criminal law violation alleged in a DUI charge, an administrative action is also initiated through the Department of Motor Vehicles Division of Drivers Licenses. If you are arrested for a DUI offense, the administrative process that could result in a suspension of your driver's license will begin immediately upon your arrest. The arresting officer will seize your driver's license at the time of arrest and will issue a 10 day temporary permit via the citation at that time. You will then only have 10 days to decide the best course of action to take in order to maintain your ability to drive. See Understanding the 10 day Rule or How To Keep Driving For Critical Purposes If Arrested For DUI in FLorida.
Due to recent changes in the law effective July 1, 2013, an individual accused of DUI must seek the advice of an experienced DUI criminal defense attorney immediately in order to weigh the options available.
Formal Review:
You may choose to request a Formal Review hearing at which time you will have the benefit of your lawyer being able to present evidence and question witnesses while they are under oath and of record. This important process can result in the invalidation of the proposed suspension and also secures sworn testimony which can later be utilized in defense of the criminal case in court.
If the Department rules against the driver after the Formal Review hearing, the driver will suffer a 30 day "hard-time" suspension in which no permit to drive is available (in those cases involving a breath/blood alcohol level >.08) or a 90 day "hard-time" suspension (in those cases involving a refusal to submit to testing). These "hard-time" periods are part of either the six month suspension (in the event of a test result >.08) or one year suspension (in the event of a refusal).
Waiver of Formal Review:
Under the new law effective July 1, 2013, a driver now has the option of waiving their right to proceed to a formal review and instead may immediately request a review of eligibility for a restricted driving privilege.
The benefit of waiving the Formal Review is the avoidance of either the 30 day or 90 day "hard-time" suspension (during which there is no lawful ability to drive). The disadvantage is you will waive your opportunity to set aside the suspension in its entirety and your driving record will reflect a suspension was imposed for having >.08 breath/blood alcohol level or for refusing to submit.
Especially in the case of a refusal which will remain on your driving history, a person accused of DUI must make an informed decision after consultation with an experienced DUI criminal defense attorney regarding the best option.
Also, if you choose the option of waiving your ability to contest the suspension in order to obtain a restricted permit to allow you to drive without suffering the "hard-time", you must do so in person at the DMV Bureau of Administrative Reviews office and must have with you a copy of the DUI citation, $25.00 fee, and proof of enrollment in an approved DUI school. This must be accomplished within 10 days of arrest.
Other Changes:
There are several other important changes in the Administrative process which could affect your driving privileges.
The method of enforcing subpoenas, the effect of a witness failing to appear, and the time-frame within which the Department has to schedule a hearing are all parts of the process that have been modified by the new legislation.
If arrested for a DUI offense, you should immediately seek the counsel and advice of an experienced DUI criminal defense attorney who is familiar with these legislative changes. This will allow for an informed decision to be made and acted upon within 10 days of the arrest.

Scientists discover the proteins that control development of varicose veins
A new discovery published in the October 2011 print issue of The FASEB Journal explains for the first time what kicks off the process that causes varicose veins. In the article, researchers from Germany describe a single protein that binds to DNA to control gene function (called "transcription factor AP-1") and the subsequent production of a newly discovered set of proteins that significantly affect the development of varicose veins.
"We very much hope that our findings spur further studies focusing on the mechanisms underlying this widespread and precarious but still largely neglected venous disease," said Thomas Korff, Ph.D., study author from the Institute of Physiology and Pathophysiology at the University of Heidelberg in Heidelberg, Germany. "In the long run, such approaches will result in the development of a drug therapy that improves the quality of life for all people suffering from varicose veins."
To make this discovery, Korff and colleagues increased the blood pressure in a single vein of the ears of white mice, and followed the resulting changes in the size and architecture of the adjacent veins for several days. These changes were further analyzed in the abundance and activity of specific proteins in the veins connected to the one with increased blood pressure, and results were compared to those obtained from human varicose veins. By inhibiting the transcription factor AP-1 in the mouse ear model, synthesis of proteins associated with varicose remodeling and the proliferation of blood vessel smooth muscle cells were significantly reduced, and the varicose remodeling process was virtually abolished. AP-1 was inhibited by decoy oligonucleotides (decoy ODN), a well-studied class of nucleic acid-based drugs.
"Most people know varicose veins as an unsightly reminder of aging," said Gerald Weissmann, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal, "but for some, varicose veins cause significant pain that affects the quality and in some cases, length of life. While surgery may be beneficial in some cases, it's not the ideal solution. This research really opens the doors for an entirely new approach to treatment and prevention."

Most big results in mathematics are built on years and years of groundwork by the author and other mathematicians, such as Wiles' proof of FLT or the classification of finite simple groups. Nevertheless, there is this big romantic idea in pop culture where a young genius comes up with a brilliant proof of a major conjecture, based on some creative new idea which flies in the face of the mathematical community.
What are some examples where this has actually happened? That is, which results stem from independent work by a mathematician who came along "out of nowhere" and solved a huge problem by surprise through nonstandard techniques?
I read that the recent proposed proof of the ABC conjecture comes from years of autonomous theory by Prof Mochizuki, most of which ventures far outside of the current literature; this would seem to qualify as one example provided the proof turns out to be true.

Girl Is a Record-Setting Swimmer, Even Though She Has No Legs and Only One Arm
The next time you think you can't do something, think about Kayla Wheeler.
The 16-year-old girl from Lynwood, Massachusetts is a record-setting swimmer who just so happens to have no legs and only one arm.
Kayla, who was born with a trio of congenital amputations, currently owns the Paralympic world record in the 50-meter butterfly and has jumped in the pool for races in places as far and wide and Mexico, Brazil and the Netherlands.
"I like being able to represent my country. That's amazing breaking records and getting medals, but I like being out there as a role model too," she said.
Her mother, Joyce, has done a great job of instilling a positive attitude in her daughter:
We always told her there is nothing you can't do, we just might have to figure out a different way for you to do it and she has pushed the envelope."
Aside from swimming, Kayla, whose good grades and accomplishment in the pool earned her scholastic All-American honors, keeps herself busy by bowling, skiing and playing basketball.
For now, though, she has her sights set on the International Paralympic World Championships in August in Montreal.
Best of luck! Watch a report on Kayla's amazing story below.

Kepler's surprise: Planet hunter also found supernovas
Now-defunct telescope captured five stellar explosions as they happened
OXON HILL, Md. — NASA's premier planet-hunting telescope had an unexpected talent: spotting the cataclysmic demise of giant stars. The Kepler space telescope detected at least five supernovas, giving astronomers a rare look at these calamitous explosions from the start.
From May 2009 until May 2013, when a critical piece of equipment failed (SN: 9/21/13, p. 18), the Kepler telescope found at least 3,500 likely planets orbiting other stars. Kepler's planet-hunting prowess stemmed from doing one thing extremely well: measuring the brightness of some 170,000 stars. For all four years, the telescope stared continuously at a single patch of sky, collecting brightness measurements every 30 minutes. Occasionally the scope detected subtle dips in stars' brightness, revealing that planets had crossed in front of them and cast shadows.
In late 2009, Rob

Tough Luck Continues in One-Goal Loss For Wabashby Brent Harris • October 16, 2010 Share:
The Wabash soccer team's tough-luck season continued Saturday with another one-goal loss, this time on a penalty kick against Kenyon to fall 2-1 to the Lords at home in North Coast Athletic Conference action.
Kenyon, ranked third in the Great Lakes Region in the latest National Soccer Coaches Association of America poll, scored early on a goal by Tom Nolan to take a 1-0 lead. The Lords held that lead through the first half before Austin Jennings recorded his second goal of the season in the 67th minute to even the score at 1-1. Minutes later junior Femi Oluyedun received his second yellow card of the match, forcing him to leave the field with an accumulated red card while leaving the Little Giants with 10 players for the final 18 minutes.
The Lords took the advantage, eventually scoring the game-winning goal on a penalty kick by Felix Hoffman in the 77th minute to improve to 11-1-1 on the season with a 3-1-0 mark in NCAC play.
"We played well in the first half against a very good regionally-ranked soccer team in Kenyon," Head Coach Roberto Giannini said. "Despite an early first-half goal and only one shot, the game was pretty even. We really took to Kenyon in the second half. We had more shots on goal and more opportunities. Austin scored a goal to equalize the match, then five minutes later Femi Oluyedun hits the cross bar on a very good shot off a beautiful build by the team.
"Femi picked up his second yellow card on a really tough call a few minutes later, which left us down a man. Four minutes later Kenyon won it with the penalty kick. Once again we didn't deserve to lose based upon the way we played. The effort was equal to Kenyon's --- a very good team that is well coached with a couple of All-American play. We really deserve a break. Sometimes you have to have some luck during the season, and we've had none this year. This is the fifth straight game we've played excellent soccer, but have come away with a one-goal loss. Our record is no where close to an indication of how well this team has played this year."
The loss dropped Wabash to 6-9 for the year and 0-5 in the NCAC. The Little Giants have lost four of their past five matches by one goal, including two overtime defeats along with a 2-0 loss at nationally-ranked Ohio Wesleyan.
The Little Giants will have a week to prepare for their next match, a 2 p.m. home contest against Oberlin College next Saturday.

Make eye contact. Always approach them face-to-face and make eye contact. Use their name if you need to. It is vital that they actually see you and that their attention is focused on you. Read their eyes. Always approach from the front as approaching and speaking from the side or from behind can startle them.
Be at their level. Move your head to be at the same level as their head. Bend your knees or sit down to reach their level. Do not stand or hover over them – it is intimidating and scary. They can't focus on you and what you are saying if they are focused on their fear.
Tell them what you are going to do before you do it. Particularly if you are going to touch them. They need to know what is coming first so that they don't think that you are grabbing them.
Speak calmly. Always speak in a calm manner with an upbeat tone of voice, even if you don't feel that way. If you sound angry or agitated, they will often mirror that feeling back to you and then some.
Speak slowly. Speak at one half of your normal speed when talking to them. Take a breath between each sentence. They cannot process words as fast as non-diseased people can. Give them a chance to catch up to your words.
Speak in short sentences. Speak in short direct sentences with only one idea to a sentence. Usually they can only focus on only one idea at a time.
Only ask one question at a time. Let them answer it before you ask another question. You can ask who, what, where and when, but NOT why. Why is too complicated. They will try to answer, fail and get frustrated.
Don't say "remember". Many times they will not be able to do so, and you are just pointing out to them their shortcomings. That is insulting, and can cause anger and/or embarrassment.
Turn negatives into positives. For example say "Let's go here" instead of "Don't go there". Be inclusive and don't talking down to them as if they were a child. Respect the fact that they are an adult, and treat them as such.
Do not argue with them. It gets you nowhere. Instead, validate their feelings, by saying" I see that you are angry (sad, upset, etc…). It lets them know that they are not alone and then redirect them into another thought. For example "It sounds like you miss your mother (husband, father, etc…). You love them very much, don't you? Tell me about the time…" Then ask for one of their favorite stories about that person).

Sana is a underrated Japanese brand, who so far have made my favorite mascara in the world and some excellent eyelash curlers.
I decided to give this cute pencil a try – it has a black liquid liner on one side, and a white pencil/crayon on the other:
What I love is the true blackness of the liner. It is a REAL deep black, with the texture almost of a inky felt tip. Once dried, it does not smudge. Also the tip is so fine that it lines perfectly – I personally find pen liners are a million, million times easier to use than conventional liners with brushes. Everyone knows how to use a pen, right?
The white side is crayon like. You need to warm it a little then it really lasts all day. The white if for the waterline and corners of the eyes (to highlight). You can also get this with a black crayon and a pink one.
This cost me $11, which is only £5.50. The quality is excellent – I really think a lot of Japanese brands have got smudgeproof liners mastered. You will find this pencil a revalation if you find liquid liners hard to use.
You can buy it

Today is the eighth annual International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHO). Activities are being observed around the world.
Ambassador Susan E. Rice, the United States Permanent Representative to the United Nations, released this video message today. Watch AFTER THE JUMP ...
Ambassador Rice paid particular notice to the plight of LGBT youth:
Today, as we commemorate International Day Against Homophobia, we rededicate ourselves to a basic but essential truth – that human rights are universal and must be protected for all. Homophobia, sadly, is present in every corner of our world. And, it is a problem we continue to face here in the United States.
At the United Nations, the United States is standing up for the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals and fighting to ensure that their voices are heard and protected. The United States was proud to co-sponsor and adopt an historic resolution at the UN Human Rights Council condemning human rights abuses and violations based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
We will continue to work in every possible arena to protect communities and promote societies in which everyone – especially LGBT youth – can live safely and without fear regardless of who they are or whom they love. We call on all nations and all peoples to join us in ensuring that human rights are universally protected everywhere every day.
IDAHO and the United Nations Declaration for the Universal Decriminalization of homosexuality were launched by Louis-Georges Tin, the Black gay French human rights activist. Background HERE and HERE.
The "historic resolution" referenced by the ambassador is the March 2011 United Nations Human Rights Council declaration to urge the international community to combat anti-LGBT discrimination and violence. The declaration adopted by some 85 countries in a Joint Statement entitled "Ending Acts of Violence and Related Human Rights Violations Based On Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity."
In December 2008, the Bush Administration joined perennial human rights abusers such as Russia and China to oppose a similar resolution. President Obama made history in September 2011 when he became the first sitting U.S. President to call for universal LGBT rights at the United Nations General Assembly.

text: Well, here's the fourth try. I ditched the volcano.The church was modeled using Blender. I kept it very low poly since it is so far away. Does it need a steeple or a Cross?I also added some distant fog, which seems to work well. Since there is not much more to add save a path or road to the church, I am going to try something from a photo. This will require a lot of masking.

The new MyHeritage app for iPhone, iPad & Android was finally released today, after months of hard work by our really wonderful team, to help get MyHeritage users the best family tree app in the industry.
Version 1.0 includes an HTML5 version of the family tree with profile pages designed especially for mobile, photo-sharing feature that syncs with your family site and a cool celebrity look-alike feature (aka MyCeleb). You can read more about the current version on www.myheritage.com/mobile. Next versions will add more and more great features, starting with editing of the tree straight from your mobile device and followed by everything you love about MyHeritage.
But I did have a lot of fun with the third choice -MyCeleb.
When you choose MyCeleb you have a choice to choose an existing photo or take a new one. I chose to take one. After I took it, a popup explained that the photo would be uploaded to MyHeritage for processing but then deleted.
I okayed the upload and waited. It took only a few seconds and my matches showed. I had a good chuckle as my best match was with Elton John! But I can kind of see why - my photo looks like your typical driver's licence mug shot and I have no makeup on!
My other matches were Toni Morrison, Anna Sophia Robb and Gary Oldman - go figure...
I did have fun though, trying different photos and angles to see who I'd be matched with. I liked it when MyCeleb matched me with Jessica Lange - I must remember to always pose that way.
Then I tried hubs and he got some very flattering matches - Patrick Stewart and Mel Gibson were his top two.
Anyway it really was fun and I think the more serious part of this app will almost certainly be helpful to genealogists.
