GISuser Spotlight... Situational Awareness and GIS at the Democratic Convention (DNC) in Denver - Now, after all the planning, it's time to put the plan into action. Indeed there was a pretty huge police presence on the 16th Street mall yesterday and no doubt that was just the tip of the iceberg. We look back to October 07 as the city of Denver was forced to put into place a full-scale security plan as the Nation's eyes turned to the city for 2 games of the 2007 World Series. Then in November 2007, city leaders and experts from around the country got together at the 07 ESRI Homeland Security Summit. That's where we first heard from Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper and Director of Emergency Management, Justin DeMello, about the city's plans for security at the DNC.

GISuser Spotlight... NAIP 2008 Imagery Makes its Debut in Texas at TNRIS - The 2008-2009 NAIP imagery acquisition is in production and the first round of products is arriving at TNRIS - A collaborative partnership among state agencies and several technical contributing partners is creating a new statewide aerial map for Texas. The project is based on a partnership with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Farm Services Agency and Texas. This project is acquiring imagery for the entire state in two phases. The first phase is designed to keep pace with the agricultural growing season as it migrates from South Texas to the Panhandle.
GISuser Spotlight... On the Spot GIS: Geospatial Technologies Make Image-Based Mapping Truly Mobile - Companies that earn their money by extracting resources from below the ground have an enormous amount of work to do on the Earth's surface before they can ever sink a spade or lower a drill bit, and most of that work is simply establishing an accurate picture of what that surface looks like. Technologies converging in the mapping space, such as global positioning systems, portable geospatial hardware, and image compression, are making field mapping considerably easier, and big companies such as Chevron and Enbridge are taking advantage of the benefits.
GISuser Spotlight... GeoEye-1 Takes Flight - GeoEye-1 - Visualize home plate on a baseball diamond from Space! - Imagine, at a total cost of some $502 million to date, GeoEye-1 is now in orbit after a launch this past week-end. Recall GeoEye-1 is part of a $500-million NextView contract awarded to ORBIMAGE (Now GeoEye) September 30, 2004. Expect the imagery to serve a wide array of applications for defense, national and homeland security, air and marine transportation, oil and gas, mining, mapping and location-based services, state and local government planning, insurance and risk management, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. Having an unrivaled spatial resolution of 0.41-meters, GeoEye-1 is designed to have three-meter accuracy, which means that customers can map natural and man-made features to within three meters of their actual locations on the surface of the Earth without ground control points. This level of accuracy is unsurpassed. At 0.41-meter resolution, GeoEye-1 would be able to 'see' home plate on a baseball diamond and be able to precisely locate it within three meters of its true location on the surface of the globe.
Mobile Mapping and Bicycle Street Views - Forget Street View... how about Geo-referenced Bike Views? - Sounds like fun to me! Apparently, there's a crew of flickr enthusiasts that are equipped with Nokia N95s (what else) and driving around, snapping photos and loading their geo-tagged imaged up to flickr... kind of a green solution to street view... awesome! So that got me thinking... given that some friends at Nokia in Helsinki just hooked me up with a cool bike mounted phone holder and a sweet Nokia Sports Tracker T-shirt, I think I may have to start logging a few miles on the bike and snapping and storing some geotagged bicycle street views from the N95 for myself! It's a simple, and fun task, gets me outside for some fresh air, and may just be a cool, green solution for field mapping projects that can help get around the high price of fuel and reduce carbon footprint at the same time too!

The Press Room

Ticket prices slashed by 50% Prices start at $20 per show; memberships now $12 per month
BOSTON--For fourteen years, Company One's mission has been to bring a new kind of theatre to Boston, and to attract new audiences in the process. Recently, they realized their plan was working a little too well.
As Company One's reputation has grown — the company is now known nationally as a vital home for second and third productions of new works, and locally as a stage where the next generation of actors makes its debut — ticket prices grew too. While their top-tier tickets, at $42, were still far less than those of other local companies, they were still too high for many of Company One's original supporters, such as students, recent graduates and budget-conscious audiences.
"We realized that we were alienating the very people we set out to serve," says Shawn LaCount, Company One's founding artistic director. "We may be bigger than we used to be, but our goals haven't changed: we still want to showcase artists that represent the diverse population of Boston, and bring that population into our theatre to see playwrights telling our stories."
This fall, Company One returns to its roots with the launch of C1 For All: THEATRE THAT DOESN'T BREAK THE BANK!, a new pricing structure and membership program that makes its shows affordable for all. For the first 2 weeks of each production, tickets are just $20 or, on designated days, Pay-What-You-Can. For the third week, tickets are just $28, and in the final two weeks of the performance, tickets are $38. Student tickets are available at an even deeper discount — for pre-sale just $15 and student rush are $10! "There's no discount code to remember, no e-mail to sign up for, no special under-18 or under-35 night to put on your calendar," says LaCount. "If you come early, you pay less, period.
"Company One is also rolling out a new annual membership program called THE COMPANY CARD, that offers "Company Card" holders unlimited access to shows for just $12 per month, as well as discounted tickets for friends and family, access to invitation-only events, and loyalty rewards like company swag.
"There's nowhere else in the United States you can see theatre that's this contemporary, this exciting, this representative of our changing nation, for just $12 a month," says Lydia R. Diamond, a Company One Advisory Board member and playwright whose work includes the award-winning adaptation of THE BLUEST EYE, and the Alicia Keys-backed Broadway production of STICK FLY.
"Company One has always been an artistic innovator, and I'm excited to see that spirit of rule-breaking and boundary-crossing applied to the business side of their work."

Christian Charity and the Welfare State
- Tuesday, April 19, 2011
President Obama's dialogue with Pastor Warren underscores the timeliness of this momentous issue. Should Christians favor government programs that redistribute wealth to the poor? The affirmative case has been set forth many times over the decades. In this paper, I will make the opposite case. I will attempt to show that Christian support of the government redistribution of wealth should be rethought in light of some clear Scriptural texts.
Citing a single scriptural verse, as President Obama did, can be helpful and illuminating, but it also can be problematic, as can be seen in Matthew 4, where the tempter quotes Scripture. I invite you to examine Sen. Obama's statements in the fuller biblical context that I will provide.
Christ and Government—the Essential Difference
The very natures and methods of government and Christ are diametrically opposed to each other. Government employs force and the threat of force, even violence, to impose its will. Jesus eschewed the ways of this world, especially violence.
The gentle but powerful spirit of Christ moves humans to charitable deeds through internal impulsion. Government commands obedience through external compulsion. Christian charity is voluntary, rewarding the giver with joy and satisfaction. By contrast, financial support of government programs is not voluntary, but mandatory. Noncompliance is punished by fines and/or imprisonment.
It has become fashionable in recent years to ask, "What would Jesus do?" Did Jesus enlist the help of the state in carrying out his mission? According to the gospel record, Jesus' only contacts with government were when government sought to deprive him of each individual's God-given rights—his life (the crucifixion), his liberty (his arrest), or his property (taxes). Given these facts, perhaps we shouldn't jump to the conclusion that the Lord would choose government as an ally in performing Christian works.
"But things are different today," some might say. "At the time of Jesus, Roman society was pagan, but today Christian values permeate our society, and so it is only natural to expect government policies to implement Christian values." Let's examine this assumption.
Apart from the lengthy historical record showing how Christian rulers have ruined countless lives when resorting to compulsion, Jesus himself cautioned against merging Christian goals into a political agenda. Wiser than the rest of us, the Savior delineated two separate spheres of activity, the sacred and the secular, telling his followers to "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's" (Mark 12:17).
If Jesus had believed in political power as the path to God's kingdom on earth, might not he have accepted Satan's offer to receive control over all the kingdoms on earth? Then he could have passed laws and imposed his will on mankind. But we all know how the Lord responded to that temptation: "Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve." (See Matthew 4:8-10.)
Where in the Bible is the church of Christ instructed to delegate its charitable mission to civil government, or to seek a "joint custody," or shared responsibility, for Christian beneficence? Christians may "reprove, rebuke, exhort" (II Tim. 4:2) others to increase their charitable activities, but where in the Bible is it written that we may compel others to act charitably?
The Master's Way
A Bible passage often cited by those who claim biblical support for the redistribution of wealth is Jesus' encounter with a rich man in Mark 10. This unnamed man wanted to know how he might attain eternal life. After hearing that he had faithfully kept the commandments "from [his] youth," Jesus told him what he still needed to do: "Go thy way, sell whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me" (v. 21).

Forest Hill Maybeck Home Up for Sale
Take a cab ride across the the southern end of the city, and you may notice that the streets get a little curvier; dappled sunlight peeks through large oaks above and, as if on cue, the houses grow a tad bigger. Have you stumbled into suburbia in the middle of a metropolis? Close. You've just found your way to Forest Hill, the tony neighborhood just south of the Sunset but light years away from nearby city hamlets.
If you've ever daydreamed of setting up shop here, now might be your chance - Curiosity Shoppe blog Smarts and Crafts just pointed out this beauty currently on sale in the neighborhood for a cool 2.2 mil. The home was built by noted Bay Area architect Bernard Maybeck (the man behind the Palace of Fine Arts), so it should come as little surprise that there are a few grand gestures (hello, ceiling) to be found. But tempered with the home's Craftsman-style roots, those Gothic influences hit just the right dramatic note while still feeling like homey. Well, as home-like as about 4,000 square feet could feel, of course. For a whole mess of photos, click here.

The Burleigh County Sheriff's Department warns of a phone scam involving a man falsely claiming to be a deputy and threatening potential victims to send a money order to avoid arrest.
The Director of the North Dakota Consumer Protection tells residents to be cautious when answering the phone from any number you don't recognize.
Parrell Grossman says the department typically sees 15 to 20 scams of this nature per year.
While he says it's very difficult to catch these crooks because they may be calling from another state or using someone else's number-- he says to be on the defensive if you get this kind of call.
"Our law enforcement officers never threaten individuals.They simply would never call you and tell you if you dont pay this fine you're going to be arrested. If you actually owed a fine there would be some court documents some documentation of that obligation," say Parrell Grossman, Consumer Protection Division.
There's another scam going around.
Grossman says the department has received hundreds of complaints in the past few days from those who have gotten calls from impersonators saying they're with Visa or Mastercard and asking for personal information over the phone.
If you receive a questionable phone call, hang up and contact the consumer protection division at 1-800-472-2600.

When does an anti-Government uprising become a civil war? Can the rebels wage a proper united campaign? How will the West proceed in its dealings with Libya and the wider North Africa Middle East (MENA) region?
These were some of the issues I discussed in my two podcasts a week ago for the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, to whom I am consultant on the Middle East.
This was an opportunity to reflect upon the situation in Libya, the issue of a no-fly zone over the country – and also to assess the serious uprisings in Yemen, Jordan and Bahrain. 'People power' has come to the fore, but where will this lead?
Of course, the issues and realities on the ground have moved on further in a matter of days. But it is important to retain our sense of perspective amid the dramtic events and headlines.
The link to the full podcasts is below. But here are a few excerpts:
On people power...
"People have suddenly realised that there is something called 'people power', so every grievance that they've had over the last decades suddenly is coming out to the fore and people are saying it's time for us to go and demonstrate and right those wrongs."
On foreign intervention - a potential 'no-fly' zone over Libya...
"We in the West have had some very awkward moments in the Middle East and have seen that the result of any military action can actually be counter-productive for our interests - let alone the interests of the region as a whole. I caution people, I pray for wisdom and hope that before we become too gung ho about it we think a little bit more strategically rather than just react tactically."
On regional uprisings outside Libya...
"Libya is now the focal point of many of our thoughts so you forget that in Yemen there are serious uprisings taking place against the President. I think Yemen is in a very fragile state at the moment. Even in Bahrain and in a relatively calm, relaxed monarchical system like Jordan there are angry uprisings and demonstrations taking place. If you look at other countries like Iraq - [a country] we supposedly liberated from an autocrat some years ago - now if you go to places as far north as Kurdistan and as far south as Basra you see peoople who are demonstrating. These demonstrations are as much random as sporadic."
On future solidarity between Muslims and Christians...
"Much as I was happy with this coming together in Tahreer Square [Cairo] where Christians and Muslims - the Crescent and the Cross - where fighting together a common cause against injustice, I wouldn't want to see it backpedalling again, to a situation when minority communities - particularly Christian minority communities across the range of the Middle East North Africa would be subjugated again to the whims of a small group of fanatical extremists."
On future uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa region...
"If something happens in the eastern provinces of Saudi Arabia, or if this goes even further, then it's not only a question of oil and regional security then we are redefining a whole vision of what the Middle East is or looks like."

JILLIAN: What I usually start with is asking people, you know, what do you remember loving as a child? What do you remember feeling inspired by, or drawn to? Just dive in…whatever feels right.
LEE: Okay. Well, I do remember feeling inspired by books, and loving books. From the very beginning. Picture books. It's probably universal, but I remember— I just wanted so badly to read. And I actually was so frustrated, because my older sister could read, and I couldn't. And she started teaching me. Because I wanted so much to break into that meaning, into what the books were. And she started teaching me, and our kindergarten teacher got wind of this, and called our parents, and said, you know, "Fibi's teaching Lee how to read— I think maybe we should just take over from here, so we make sure that she learns right. And so I got to learn to read in kindergarten, as opposed to first grade when they were teaching everyone, and it was…it was a gift. It was so great.
JILLIAN: Do you remember any particular books that you loved, anything that…
LEE: Yeah! Vividly, I remember Harold and the Purple Crayon. You know? The really young books. And Blueberries for Sal— there were all these books that had a really strong… I mean, they do have a really strong graphic component at that point. And I loved that relationship between the text and the picture.
JILLIAN: Yeah, I loved both of those as well.
LEE: Did you? Yeah! There was just something…I mean, you were just in that purple world, and then you were in that blue world, in that world of, you know, being out, and blueberry-ing, and being completely consumed by it.
JILLIAN: Yeah! And it's interesting, because if I remember correctly, and I may not, but both of those books are really just one color, right?
LEE: Yeah, they are! When you think about it, they are. It's interesting.
JILLIAN: Yeah— the illustrations are really interesting, but they're not…
LEE: Yeah, they're very monochromatic! It's kind of that saturated navy, almost, that color. It's just so interesting.
JILLIAN: There's a texture to it, almost. It's just so delicious to be in it. Yeah. I so get what you mean. And the purple crayon too— that bold purple line of the crayon, and what he could make with it…
LEE: Right! He just took like one crayon, and just created a whole world. And that was just so satisfying
JILLAN: Yes, it really was! Just so…alright. Keep going.
LEE: So those were some of the earlier ones that I remember. And there were things like…we had this tall book of fairytales. I think it was a gold book, even, that I remember. And a lot of poetry collections that we would read out loud, again and again, or that someone would read to us. And there were always… there was a point at which the visual ones gave way to the storybooks, and the things like Charlotte's Web. And a book called The Dollhouse, later — that were just…it just felt like I wanted to live in those books. I would read them— I'm sure everyone does this; kids do because my kids did. You'd read it again and again and again. And the experience was always both a little different and the same each time, and I think that's part of why kids do that.
And at some point, I think I must've been maybe in second grade, and my older sister was a little older. At some point, I realized that books were written by PEOPLE. That they weren't just objects in the world— that somebody actually made them. And when I realized that, it was literally like being hit by lightning. It was just like, oh my god. And I immediately… for me, it was so simple. It was just like, oh my god, I want to do this. You know?
Conversation between Jillian Hanson and writer, Lee Prusik author of Light Sister, Dark Sister.
"I started this technique after graduating from Royal College of Art in 2003. It started after a trip to Thailand, where I bought a beautiful second-hand book on the Kao San Road. My father had passed away while I was studying at the RCA, and I was thinking about life, death, and the in-between. My first book-sculpture was 'The Quiet American'. I cut moths from the book with a craft-knife. The piece was inspired by a Chinese legend, about two lovers whose souls re-emerge from burnt ashes in the shape of two Moths. I began working with paper, because of its connection to spiritual rituals that I encountered in South East Asia, and this in turn led me to work with books, and fairy tales."
British Paper Artist Su Blackwell talks about how she arrived at her technique.

Creative work needs solitude. It needs the whole sky to fly in, and no eye watching until it comes to that certainty which it aspires to…Privacy, then, a place apart - to place, chew pencils, to scribble and erase and scribble again. - Mary Oliver
Finding a career is like finding love - you have to use a trial-and-error method. Out there, somewhere is a job - or even 500 jobs - you'd like to do; it's up to you to hang loose and look at the opportunities. People aren't fortune cookies with jobs buried beneath their skin; you make yourself up as you go along - Mary Ellen Banashek
I started out as kid drawing and just getting very involved in art. I loved art when I was in grammar school and I can remember being in fifth grade or fourth grade and drawing pictures of pretty women that I wanted to look like. You know, that I thought you looked like when you were an adult. And it's funny, because when I was cleaning out my parents' house a couple years ago when they were moving, I found all these drawings that I did that were still on a chalkboard in my mother's attic.
Los Angeles Bridal Hair & Makeup artist, Betsy diFrancesca talks about her early interest in art and beauty.

You Can Ask Apple's Siri Anything, Yes, Anything
They say children say the funniest things. Well, it seems Siri also has some pretty funny replies up its electronic sleeve.
The iPhone 4S has been with us long enough now for people to start abusing the new voice assistant Siri.
So many people are now doing it, even our famous friends from across the water, Conan O'Brien and Team Coco, have had a go, asking Siri some searching questions in this hilarious Apple spoof.
The super assistant is designed to tell you everything you need to know: from the closest restaurant to where babies come from.
However, Conan has decided to ask some questions more tailored to his comic nature.
Check out Conan's spoof advert below, it's pretty funny.

Richmond County Coroner Grover Tuten, 70, was taken into custody Thursday by FBI agents and Richmond County Sheriff's Office investigators.
arrest has come as a shock to many people in the CSRA.
Tuten was Deputy Coroner for more than 20 years before being elected to lead the Richmond County Sheriff's Office 9 years ago.
Tuten has also won many awards for his work in law enforcement, as well as various acts of service in the community.
According to the FBI, he was arrested on a state warrant for Theft by Taking. The investigation was conducted by the FBI, District Attorney's Office, U.S. Attorney's Office, as well at the Richmond County Sheriff's Office.
Earlier Thursday afternoon, the Sheriff's Office sent a news release acknowledging that the office has the right to make the arrest.
The release stated, "As part of the ongoing investigation, information surfaced that county property and/or employees may be subjected to potential harm."
Since Tuten's arrest, Richmond County Sheriff's Office deputies are also providing security at the Richmond County Coroner's Office during the investigation.
Righ now, all agencies involved are being tight-lipped about this arrest, but we are told the investigation is ongoing.
We will continue to follow this developing story and provide more information as it becomes available.
***UPDATED at 3:23 P.M. on Thursday, December 19th***
New information has been released concerning the arrest of Richmond County Coroner Grover Tuten.
A Richmond County Sheriff's Office spokesperson tells us they were called in to assist the FBI and District Attorney's office in the execution of arrest warrants on an elected county official.
As part of the ongoing investigation, information surfaced that "county property and/or employees may be subjected to potential harm".
Under the authority of the Georgia Constitution, the Sheriff, as the county's chief law enforcement officer who's sworn duty is to act as the "Conservator of the peace" has the right and the duty to "enforce laws enacted for the protection of the lives, persons, property, health, and morals of the people". As such, the Richmond County Sheriff's Office has temporarily assumed authority of the Richmond County Coroner's Office and personnel employed the office.
***POSTED at 2:00 P.M. on Thursday, December 19th***
WJBF News Channel 6 has learned Richmond County Coroner Grover Tuten has been arrested.
We are told Tuten, 70, was arrested Thursday by the FBI and charged with Theft by Taking.
The charge is a state charge, but the case is being handled by the FBI because Tuten is a coroner.
According to Jim Harrison, a Supervisory Senior Resident Agent with the FBI, the FBI, Richmond County Sheriff's Office, District Attorney's office and U.S. Attorney's Office all worked on the investigation.
We will continue to follow this breaking story and provide the latest details as they become available.

UFC women's Bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey was in New York to help plead the case for legalized MMA there.
lol…who cares?
Many people care. Rhonda was doing good work lobbying politicians to legalize MMA in New York State. So go have a nap and leave the adults alone.
Ronda is a great ambassador for the MMA. Come on NY! Let's make it happen.
Sorry, I didn't know the politicians were as interested in what she thought as the millions of inquiring adults like yourself. I'm glad you're glad that she's optimistic about MMA in New York. This is interesting news!

House of Ruth's Crabaret( Photo by Karen Jackson, for the Baltimore Sun / July 10, 2014 )
Amy Harris, left, and Jennifer Gilbert
For the 12th year, The Baltimore Museum of Art's sculpture garden provided the perfect setting for quite the garden party: House of Ruth Maryland's Crabaret. Around 500 folks mingled around the fountains and sculptures at the $100-$125-a-ticket event, taking in the gorgeous environs as they sipped cocktails or tried offerings at beer and wine-tasting tables, sampled different crab -- or crab-inspired -- dishes at various food stations, and perused a silent auction. A quick summer shower sent the crowd briefly inside Gertrude's restaurant -- which hosts the annual shindig -- but hardly dampened the party spirit.
The reason was simple, according the organizers.
"I think it just keeps getting better every year," said Sandi Timmins, House of Ruth Maryland executive director.
"It's really all about being able to join all the people who made a difference in the House of Ruth," said Jeff Musgrove, board president.

Made to recipe. Dusted the top with powdered sugar. It was just what we wanted, flavorful but lighter than "regular" gingerbread. Also made the very yummy apple butter spread, which I think we'll use on French toast this morning.
New England Gingerbread Cake with Maple-Apple Butter Spread
Molasses, maple syrup, and apple butter imbue this treat with Yankee flavors. We like it best slightly toasted so the sweetened apple butter spread melts on the warm cake.

Axl Rose has officially crushed any hope for a Guns N' Roses reunion at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.
In a letter to the Hall on Wednesday, Axl announced that he does not want to be included in any of Saturday's festivities.
"I won't be attending The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Induction 2012 Ceremony and I respectfully decline my induction as a member of Guns N' Roses to the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame," Rose wrote.
"I strongly request that I not be inducted in absentia and please know that no one is authorized nor may anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf. Neither former members, label representatives nor the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame should imply whether directly, indirectly or by omission that I am included in any purported induction of 'Guns N' Roses.'"
When the HOF inductees were announced in December, many anticipated a reunion of GNR's original lineup: Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan and Steven Adler.
The band dismantled in the mid-90s with the Slash's departure, but Rose has continued making music under the GNR brand.
