In the past, any big moves at this time of year have been a rarity, if at sll. Sure there are minor things, but mostly because you can't use them i the post season, teams don't tend to do anything big. Well this year's different. With the extra Wild Card spots turning out to be as much of a game changer as planned, and some close division races, with roughly 2.5 weeks left, there are more fringe contenders than ever, many of which might consider some reinforcements for the stretch run. Among the teams that are close, there are:
Dodgers: .5 GB for 2nd WC, tied if the win tnight. I can't see them doing anything more than they have though
Pirates: 2 GB for 2nd WC. 2 for their last 8, seemingly in similar free fall as last year. Needs: What do you got?
Phillies: 3 GB for 2nd WC, after selling off Victorino and Pence, and almost Lee. Offense seems healthy, but they could use another big bat. Soriano? Couldnt play in the post season, but he's under control for another 2 years. If the Cubs pick up most of the tab, he could fit in well with their aging core.
Brewers: 3 GB for 2nd WC (if they hang on tonight) Needs: pitching, starting and relief. Marcum's not fully healthy, and Fiers and Peralta might not be the best bets for this kind of stretch run.
Cardinals: 1 game up in 2nd WC, tied if Dodgers win tonight. Brewers and Phillies also streaking toward them. Needs: LaRussa to send another pixie dust care package.
Yankees: Tied for AL East and 2nd WC. Needs: pitching
Orioles: Tied for AL East and 2nd WC. Needs: luck to hold out
Rays: 2 GB in AL E and 2 GB 2nd WC Needs: Big Bat. Soriano could be of use to them as well
Tigers: 2 GB AL C, 1 if they win tonight. Needs: an IF or DH type bat
White Sox: 2 games up Al C, 1 if they lose tonight Needs: luck to hold out. Peavy and Sale not to break. Rios and Pierzynskie not to be busted for PED use
A's: 2 GB AL W, 2 Game up 1st WC 4 Games up 2nd WC. Needs: Luck to hold out. Infield bat(s) couldn't hurt either
Angels: 2.5 GB 2nd WC. Needs: Relief pitching. Marmol could be a fit. Again, not a rent-a-player.
That's 12 teams in very close races for the post season. In addition to trades, could teams like this take fliers out on guys like Manny Ramirez, Vlad Guerrero, Johnny Damon, or Magglio Ordonez? Maybe even Derrek Lee?
A few other guys who could be available are Jason Bay, Jason Giambi, Cody Ross, Daisuke, Darren Oliver, Jeff Francoeur,Omar Vizquel, Carlos Villanueva, and the one and only "Big Z," Carlos Zambrano. Also Carlos Lee if he'd accept another trade. I'll assume all of them have long since cleared waivers by a mile. Aside from Soriano and Marmol, all of our chips are cashed in. Someone could take Camp, Corpas, or LaHair if we gave them away, but that's about it.
It could be an interesting few weeks on the warm stove. Or not.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time I remember the Cubs making a late season trade after the August 31st deadline was Bill Mueller for some scrub ten years ago. The most likely scenario is if a team needs a starter for a doubleheader due to rain and don't have any servicable folks in the minors kind of like how the Red Sox were talking about acquiring Bruce Chen last year. remember these dudes aren't elligible to be on the postseason roster if traded after August

Hello all,
I'm visiting the east coast for the first time and I'm kind of worried about the weather. My plan is to visit next month March 21st-April 5nd. The route will start from New York, Massachusetts, and then Maine. Do you think it will be less snow during that time or no snow at all? I want a somewhat decent weather in which I can walk around and explore these cities.
NYC, Boston, and Portland

You may have wonderful weather, but we can't predict what this year will bring. I would expect to have some rain or even snow at least once during that time. Just bring a raincoat and sneakers for those days.

It is very likely you will have some form of water falling from the sky during that time of year - rain, freezing rain, snow, sleet - so make sure you plan accordingly and have warm and waterproof footwear. Define "somewhat decent weather". It will be cool and could have raw winds in any of these cities. You could have some nice warm and sunny days and if you are cold-tolerant certainly you can stroll the cities.
One of the largest snowfalls ever in Boston was 4/1 some years ago. But last year my tulips were fully leafed out by the end of March. -

That is very early spring and you may get warmish weather - but it can also be quite cold - esp at night. Expect rain on some days. And do realize that it is too early for most flowers and trees are typically still in bud rather than in leaf. (So don't expect countryside to be pretty.)

you might get lucky with some mild, sunny weather and you can count on it being too early for black flies!

For when you will be in nY the average high is 51 and the average low is 37 (don't forget damp and wind can make it feel cooler). The record low is 10.

Ricardo Martinelli Presents Plan To Govern Panama
By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - Ricardo Martinelli, the presidential candidate from the "Alliance for Change," presented his plan to govern at the Camping Resort in Chilibre this afternoon. Martinelli characterized the plan as having the intention of making improving the lives of the average Panamanian and putting the interests of the people first. The priority of the plan is to reduce the costs of living for the poor, helping them with scholarships, books, and free school supplies. It includes a $100 per month payment to anyone who is older than 70 years of age who is not receiving a retirement check from any other entity. Also included in the plan is the construction of new houses for the poor and help to create more jobs. Martinelli said "In this plan of change no one will leave the government a millionaire. Anyone who steals from the people will go to prison. We will have an austere government - I don't want a fat government and skinny people but rather just the opposite. Our plan is your plan, the plan of the people who what a change in order to live better. That is our promise."

What's the HDTV model number?

In Reply to: Braven 650 bluetooth speaker or Soundfreaq sound kick? by SDuenke11
Ideally I see you as a good candidate for an inexpensive surround sound system. It would be light years better than what you describe, and for the same money.
If I know the HDTV model number,, this would tell me what systems are compatible based on which audio outputs are present on the HDTV.

Growing old can be frustrating: We're sure many of our more mature readers will concur with that.
Many of the staff at the Taranaki Daily News are often reminded of the body's limitations when editor Roy Pilott gives them the latest update on his dodgy knees and his fading pace on the football field.
We're sure Roy and our readers would empathise with mature British singer Morrissey's lament to Jesus, "why did you stick me in self-deprecating bones and skin - do you hate me?"
That physical decline, despite our spirited struggle against it, is a part of life. As is the mental diminishing that often accompanies it.
But it appears it is not just Morrissey's spiritual inspiration that is deserting the ageing flock as they head for more retiring pastures.
Increasingly, our elderly (not including Roy, who is still far too young to qualify) are being left to deal with not only the physical and mental undermining of advancing years but also the marginalisation and isolation of rapid technological change and indifferent market forces.
The latest slight against our superannuitants was news this week that NZ Post is considering dramatic cuts to its mail delivery service. Some of our younger readers may raise an eyebrow of inquiry at that one. To them, mail arrives on their glowing oblong shrines in the form of texts and emails, or through Facebook posts and tweets. And that's part of the problem. A growing number of people think letters are only 26 little fellas that make up the alphabet and that letterboxes are anachronistic receptacles for junk mail and the odd annoying bill.
It's only the elderly and the luddites who send letters these days, which doesn't make for a great business model for NZ Post.
The company has the numbers on its side. The surge in internet use in New Zealand (86 per cent of New Zealanders have a computer or access to the net) has come at the expense of letters and mail volumes. But there remains a large number of older citizens who do not have such access and who depend on a regular, reliable mail service for contact with family, friends, and the outside world in general.
Many of them still write letters to the editor. Many of those same people have long relied on Teletext as well, not only because of the captions for the hearing-impaired but also the news updates; that too is to go, its imminent passing lamented by many.
On top of that, so many competitions and business interactions exclude anyone who doesn't have a mobile phone or email address.
That means that many older citizens are increasingly being excluded from the dialogue that is the banter and barter of society, left in a long-forgotten layby on the information super-highway.
Worse still, they are being told their input is not wanted or valued.
And society will be the poorer for it.

Norton Rose snubs Brazil for Turkey in global focus" />Norton Rose has refocused its international strategy to centre on emerging markets in the East.
The scheme, known as the New Horizons campaign, focuses on building geographically centred practices to service Turkey, Russia, India and China (TRIC) rather than Brazil, Russia, India and China, as favoured by others.
IT projects partner Mike Rebeiro explained: "Positioning ourselves strongly in Turkey is more important than Brazil due to its close links with the Middle East and Europe, but also we're keen to develop inward and outward services."
The New Horizons campaign works in tandem with the firm's main strategy - Headlights. This overall tactic concentrates the firm's work into five practice areas - corporate finance, energy and infrastructure, financial institutions, technology and transport.
"It's the Headlight areas that we're trying to grow in the TRIC markets," said Rebeiro. "Our recent role on the BA debt facility, which was funded by Chinese banks including the Bank of China, shows exactly how Headlights and New Horizons work together."
The push has also started paying off in Turkey, with Norton Rose bagging a position on Turkey's biggest private equity transaction to date - the sale of the shareholders' 97.6 per cent stake in shipping company UN Ro-Ro's to US private equity giant Kohlberg Kravis Roberts for £640m.
The firm has ramped up its China practice, which now has 150 lawyers, while in Russia Norton Rose is rapidly expanding, having recently taken on US firm Chadbourne & Parke partner Chris Owen and Baker Botts partner Andrei Yakovlev (The Lawyer, 22 October).
For India, Rebeiro said the firm has a number of corporate clients in the region, but the firm is reviewing the options ahead of liberalisation.

"Street food," more and more, is featured at fixed-place restaurant ventures that take on the description for honed, simplified — and usually still delicious — offerings. But Seattle still has new generations of true street food entrepreneurs looking to start building their food + drink empires with a truck-drawn eatery. A much-coveted — and also extremely challenging — parking space for these ventures in Pike at Broadway in the Shell service station parking lot. Friday, you'll find the latest street food entrepreneur to try to make the space pay off. This time, the plan is a little different.
"Capitol hIll doesn't have a whole lot of room for this," Felafel Salam owner Shimi Kahn tells CHS.
This month, Kahn's trailer full of Middle Eastern delights — "My main focus is on authentic Middle Eastern," Kahn says. "The way you get the food on the street in the Middle East." — can be found at Broadway and Pike on Tuesdays and Fridays. It's been a bit of a rough start as Kahn sorts out Capitol Hill's sometimes peculiar lunching habits. But the food truck operator is certain the space should eventually work.
The space is currently being offered by the station landlords on a monthly basis for certain days of the week. Kahn says he plans to claim it throughout the full week in coming months and work to bring in other trucks and trailers on days when Salam is scheduled elsewhere. His hope is to do more than past efforts to make the food truck presence at the spot stable — and a draw.
CHS has written about the quest to establish more street food opportunities around Capitol Hill — not all of which have been successful in the restaurant-rich and crowded business environment. Still, the concept remains popular. This summer's street food festival at Cal Anderson park drew large crowds. Meanwhile, the Shell station has been home to Mexican taco trucks, Hawaiian-styled plate lunches, and even a coffee pop-up. It's the nature of the business — but none of the players stuck around for long.
Kahn hopes his turn in the space works out differently.
"We have super fresh felafel and we're really, really, really quick," he said. "We should fit in."

Cloud Printing
Cloud printing services such as Cortado's ThinPrint Cloud Printer and Google Cloud Print let you send a file from your iPad to their respective Cloud service, which processes it into a printable form and sends it to a printer designated by you or your company.
One advantage of cloud printing is that you can print to the cloud printer from anywhere (as long as you're connected to the Internet); another is that you can print to it from multiple platforms: desktops, laptops, and mobile devices running other OSes. A disadvantage is that they tend to support printing from a limited selection of apps, usually major productivity apps but often not the iPad's email client or Safari. Google Cloud Print is predictably centered on the Google ecosystem.

What lenses? Do you mean Glass? Glass is a computer, not a correction glass like the ones you get from your optician.
You can wear Glass even if you wear eye glasses or contact lenses. It has nothing to do with that.
Check Ron Miller's blog from last week about Glass. There you will find plenty of information about his own experience.
Exactly, and it would be easy to just pick up and look at, and hard to lose.
I heard about Apple working on an iWatch. Thanks for the link.
I see. :D Look how it worked for me. When Venks mentioned the possibility of a smart necklace, the first association was with a pearl necklace.
Having a pearl necklace in mind, I couldn't make it work as a device. Maybe I was just too tired for any kind of thinking. :)
Then, thinking about the design, I thought it could be something round, with different buttons just like a smartwatch.
It could have a display on one side, and the buttons on the other. That would be more functional than a smartwatch. Having two sides it would be easier to make it nice.
Susan, I was thinking of those name tags which get hung around our necks at conferences, and which now have all kinds of codes on them too. A nicely designed pendant might just work.
Hi Susan, I have read that Apple is coming up with its own line of smartwatch series, iWatch. Apple hopes to come up with a host of new features in this tiny product that could be wearable over the wrist. But the product release is not going to be very soon.
If it would have a good design, it could interest me. I haven't seen any really good designed smartwatches yet. Have you? If it's something you are going to hang from your neck it should at least have some class. Not of all us dress as if we were in pyjamas the whole day.
A smart necklace or pendant strikes me as a good idea.
Google's entry into the smartphone market revolutionized how smartphones are developed, for sure. Glass isn't exactly the same kind of thing -- Google isn't opening up the manufacturing of Glass to any company. Maybe they will? And this current Glass product is just the Nexus version of a future ecosystem of high-tech glasses....?
Hmm I see. Thanks for the link.

Top 5 Books on Chaos Magick
By Psyche
There are some books that are required reading for the dedicated student, and this list represents my top five books dedicated to chaos magick – books that defined chaos magick as a distinct field of study and practice.
1. Liber Null & Psychonaut: An Introduction to Chaos Magic, by Peter Carroll
Liber Null, first published in the late 1970s by Ray Sherwin, is the handbook for the Illuminates of Thanteros, the first group dedicated to chaos magick. The IOT was conceived of as a new kind of order based on meritocracy, and Liber Null serves as an introductory text to what was then a new approach to magickal practice.
New Falcon published Liber Null and Psychonaut together in 1987. Psychonaut expands upon themes raised in Liber Null, and contains the much maligned pseudo-scientific approach to catastrophe theory, but it does have its moments, defining and reframing magickal theories for a new generation of occultists.
The material draws heavily from Aleister Crowley, and sections of Magick are frequently paraphrased – even example for example in some cases. Even so, it remains a cornerstone of chaos magick, and its relevance has not dimmed.
2. The Book of Results, by Ray Sherwin
Sherwin co-founded the Illuminates of Thanateros with Peter Carroll, and The Book of Results is another early text which helped define the movement. In it, Sherwin gives a lucid introduction to sigil magick via Austin Osman Spare, and introduces chaote philosophy.
The introduction to incense creation and aromatherapy have been criticized as being out of place in a book dedicated to chaos magick, but in many ways I think that rather misses the point.
3. Infernal Texts: Nox and Liber Koth, edited by Stephen Sennitt
Nox is an anthology of twenty-two essays and articles previously published in Sennitt's magazine of the same name written by various chaos and black magickians. It primarily consists of the rites and theories of the Order of Nine Angels, and draws heavily on the Golden Dawn, Aleister Crowley, the OTO, and Lovecraft for inspiration.
Writers often "correct" the views of earlier authors, Lovecraft in particular (apparently forgetting that he wrote fiction), and Liber Koth focuses entirely on working with the Cthulhu Mythos.
These texts provide an enchanting snapshot of chaos magick's earlier and darker influences circa the 1980s. The edge seems to have dulled somewhat in subsequent generations, and this book provides a great reminder of what once was. (Dead but dreaming…?)
4. Condensed Chaos: An Introduction to Chaos Magic, by Phil Hine
Hine covers a wide variety of introductory topics in an easy, conversational style in this New Falcon title published in 1995. Hine employs a number of mnemonic devices intended to be "cute,"1 but the book is light and fun.
If there was one book you were going to use to introduce chaos magick to your non-chaote friends who had a dim view of the subject: this book would provide an excellent start and step towards rectifying that view.
5. Now That's What I Call Chaos Magick, by Greg Humphries and Julian Vayne
Published in 2004 by Mandrake of Oxford, NTWICCM, after a brief introduction to chaos magick, the authors launch into descriptions of their work. Numerous rituals are presented, often written in the first-person, describing the rite performed and reflections from participants.
Formulaic rites aren't given for the reader to perform, and theories aren't expounded upon in great detail; NTWICCM shows you what chaos magick is like in action. It's an odd approach, but, in many ways, it works.
It continues to surprise me how often I am asked for recommendations on books about chaos magick. I've often thought it dead as a movement, but as new people hit upon the term, a new wave of practitioners follows, each brining their own ideas into the practice.
What would your top five be?

Elmwood Hotel Reviews
It is good that there is a nearby station. Good reception services
Room really basic, just what you need to rest after a long day sightseeing in London. Staff really nice
Lovely London hotel! Me and my two sisters stayed here for a girly weekend. The location was fanastic, right opposite Kings Cross, so great for getting about. The staff were nice and friendly and the breakfast yummy. The room was basic but the shower amazing! One downside is we couldn't get a very strong WiFi connection but apart from that everything was lovely. Thank you for a fantastic stay.
Elmwood Hotel is in a good location. It was comfortable. Breakfast was decent. Staff were friendly. I have nothing to complain about.

Armistice suffers infringement by Armenia again
30 September 2013 [13:50] -
Armenian armed forces opened fire at positions of the Azerbaijani armed forces located at the nameless heights in the territory of Gadabay region from the positions located at the nameless heights of Armenia's Krasnosel'skiy region last night and earlier today, Azerbaijani Defense Ministry told Trend on Monday.
At the same time, Azerbaijani armed forces located in the village of Ashagi Eskipara of Gazakh region were fired from the positions located in the village of Voskepar of Armenia's Noemberyan region.
In addition, Azerbaijani armed forces were fired from the positions located in the villages of Merzili and Shikhlar of Agdam region, Tapgaragoyunlu of Goranboy region, Ashagi Abdulrahmanli and Garakhanbeyli of Fizuli region.
The shooting was countered by return fire.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan.
Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts. Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the U.S. are currently holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.

Occupy London activists say they're divided about whether they should be backing fugitive WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. A post on Occupy London's Twitter account said the organization hasn't reached a "collective decision about the Assange issue," The Guardian reported.
Assange has been holed up in the Ecuadorean Embassy for two months to avoid being extradited to Sweden to face questioning in two sexual assaults. Two women accused Assange of assaulting them. He denied the accusations and said he fears Sweden will extradite him to the United States, where he could be charged in the leaking of classified information about the Iran and Afghanistan wars and diplomatic issues.
"Some object to his extradition to Sweden, some don't," the Occupy post said.
Inside the embassy compound, Assange mocked the British government Sunday when he appeared on the balcony and accused ministers of ignoring international law, The Daily Telegraph reported.
Assange, 41, thanked his supporters and accused British authorities of threatening the Ecuadorean diplomatic corps and entering the building at night to try to arrest him.
"On Wednesday night, after a threat was sent to this embassy and the police descended on the building, you came out in the middle of the night to watch over it and you brought the world's eyes with you," he said. "If the U.K. did not throw away the Vienna Convention the other night that is because the world was watching."
He called on the United States to end a "witch hunt" against him, the Telegraph said.
Assange, who was granted asylum by Ecuador, could be arrested immediately if he leaves the embassy grounds.
Last week, Foreign Secretary William Hague warned Ecuadorean officials that police could enter the building and arrest someone wanted on criminal charges per British law.
The Ecuadorean government responded that Hague was ignoring the Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations.

Apple is expected to unveil iOS 6 at WWDC later on which was pretty much a given ever since the banner for the upcoming iOS update was spotted a few days ago. However given that Apple has pretty much thrown things off last year with the iPhone 4S only being announced in the later part of 2011, it is safe to assume that Apple will be repeating that pattern this year and probably the next few years, unless of course something changes from now until then. That being said, when can iOS users expect to update their devices to iOS 6?
According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo in a note obtained by the folks at Apple Insider, it seems that we can expect Apple to unveil the Golden Master (GM) version of iOS 6 in September which was when he was also quoted as saying, "Based on the release schedule for iOS 6 GM, there is a very good chance iPhone 5 will start shipping also in early September." Either way we expect details of iOS 6 along with Apple's refresh of their Mac series of computers to be unveiled then, so check back with us in a few hours for all the details!

Bright Angel Campground is right near Phantom Ranch located at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. The view is awesome and well worth the hike. We were able to set up tent right on the Bright Angel Creek, where cottonwood trees line its shores. The only drawback was that the water line in the Canyon broke the day before our hike. As I understand that happens often so be sure you are able to treat your water. There are flushing toilets at this campground, but no showers.

So little is known about Kim Jong-un – the youngest son and reportedly the named successor of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il – that even his date of birth is uncertain: no-one is really sure whether he was born in 1983 or 1984.
But it is known that the third Kim, like his two elder brothers, was sent to school in Switzerland. The BBC's Imogen Foulkes reports on the young Kim's school days, and the unusually close relationship between Switzerland and North Korea. Kim Jong-un attended Berne's international school, where, it is rumoured, he joined school skiing outings, and was something of a peacemaker in playground disputes…
North Korean agricultural specialists regularly spend time here studying the Swiss art of making cheese and yoghurt, which Kim Jong-il is said to love.

Theatrical Feature Film Trade in the United States, Europe, and Japan Since the 1950s: An Empirical Study of the Home Market Effect
This article reviews the test of a home market model of international trade in media products using a movie industry database covering 6 major countries (the United States, Japan, Germany, Italy, France, and the United Kingdom) over the 1950 to 2003 period. In support of the model, this study finds a consistently positive relation between domestic theater box-office market shares and various measures of domestic movie spending or domestic movie attendance, and negative relations between domestic movie spending and the market shares of imported American film products. Based on these results, declining domestic film production industries in Europe and Japan after about the 1970s, along with growing dominance of the world film market by the United States, is attributed to a relatively rapid growth of domestic consumer spending on movies in the United States.Download Info

A Valley woman has been sentenced to a year in federal prison for Social Security fraud.
U.S. Attorney for Nebraska Deborah Gilg said 35-year-old Kimberly Butinski was sentenced Wednesday and ordered to pay restitution of nearly $40,000.
Gilg said Butinski received Social Security disability benefits on her children's behalf after falsely reporting that she had separated from her husband. Because benefits are based on household income, Butinski received increased payments — nearly $33,000 more than she was entitled to get.
Gilg said Butinski also got about $7,000 in food stamps and energy assistance she was not entitled to receive.
The case was investigated by the Social Security Administration Office of Inspector General. — AP

AUSTIN, Texas —
In a bustling tent set up in a parking lot here at the South By Southwest Interactive Festival, people are pointing their hands and gesturing with chopsticks as they guide various actions on a dozen computer screens.
Some of the sharpest minds in technology have gathered in Austin, Texas, to ponder the ever-connected nature of the modern world. A big theme this year focuses on how to create more seamless interactions between people and technology, finding ways to control devices that go beyond mice, trackpads and touchscreens.
That's where the Leap Motion a computer controller comes in. It's the gadget's first public appearance. On display are popular games such as the fruit-chopping "Fruit Ninja," and a more challenging one involving a maze. One man paints a picture by moving his fingers a few inches from a computer screen.
Greg Dziem, who works in data management in Austin, is using the controller to play the maze game. "It's pretty sensitive," he says. "You have to go slow. You have to be calm, steady."
The best-known motion controller to date has been Microsoft Corp.'s Kinect, which is used primarily for video games. People stand at least six feet from the device, which is usually mounted on or near a TV set. Cameras in the Kinect track users' movements and transmit them to the computer. But while Kinect is meant for living rooms and dancing games, Leap Motion is designed for people to use while seated and moving their hands just a few inches from the screens of laptops and personal computers.
"The technology was born out of the deep frustration of interacting with computers," says CEO and co-founder Michael Buckwald. While computers are "vastly different" than they were 30 years ago, he says, the way people interact with them hasn't really evolved.
Leap hopes to change that, allowing people to use natural hand movements to control games, complete office tasks, paint, create 3-D objects, and edit music and video. Leap's creators don't like to use the word "gesture" because that implies a set of pre-determined hand movements to control the screen. Instead, they like to think of their technology as more seamless than that.
Buckwald talks about the barrier that exists between computers and their users and says the best way to get rid of it is to harness "people's natural ability to interact" with the machine.
"Every day we reach out and grab things," he says. "It's very natural, but very complicated. We want people to reach into the computer."
Using Leap may take a little getting used to, if only because people who are accustomed to touchscreens may be tempted to poke at the monitor instead of sweeping and flicking their hands a few inches away from it.
In a demonstration, Leap's vice president of product marketing, Michael Zagorsek, showed off a yet-to-be named photo application that lets people browse through the photos on their computer using Leap. In another app, users can strum on-screen strings to make music. A demo-only program designed to show Leap's properties lets users mold a piece of virtual clay using their hands and a chopstick. There was no noticeable lag between the off-screen action and the on-screen movement.
The device itself is a bit longer and narrower than a matchbox. It works using three infrared LED lights and two cameras to track users' hands. It plugs into a PC or a Mac and sits between the user and the keyboard.
The controllers will cost $80 and will be sold in Best Buy stores beginning on May 19. Leap will have an app store, called Airspace, with free and paid apps available in areas that range from gaming to 3-D modeling to travel to business and finance.

Is there anything good to eat near Capitol Plaza 1200 First Street, NE?
There's nothing immediately around there -- it's still a lot of vacant lots and construction sites. (Maybe some fast food chains on NY Avenue.)

Like you, I love fabric. Like you, I collect fabric. And, probably like you, I'm always itching to change the fabric I have.Why? When there are so many beautiful fabrics out there, why do we art quilters feel the need to alter them?
I first became aware of Elin Waterston through the Quilting Arts reader challenges, particularly our annual calendar contests. Very quickly, our team came to recognize Elin's distinctive brand of well-thought-out, uncluttered design featuring a strong focal point.
It's officially summer, and that means blueberry season. I'm lucky enough to live right next to my father-in-law's blueberry patch--more of a field, actually. While they last, I just have to walk out my back door and down the path to have access to fresh blueberries for breakfast, a snack, or to use as the main ingredient for my famous blueberry cobbler (see recipe below).
You know how I feel about frogs, right? So when Karen Fricke submitted her thread-sketched frog quilt, "Coqui Up Close" to Quilting Arts Magazine back in 2007, I was captivated. And not just by the frog motif, but by her technique for turning a photo into a thread-sketched design on stabilizer.
Is there such a thing as too much texture? I don't think so! Texture is what we art quilters are all about. Texture is what excites the quilt artist and it's what entices the art quilt viewer to come up and take a closer look. Plus, adding more texture to our quilts gives us a great excuse to get in the studio and play!
Isn't it funny how sometimes the simplest of art processes can be so satisfying? I mean, you know I love my Thermofax screen printing and I am a sucker for hand embroidery. Thread sketching fascinates me and I never get tired of dyeing. But when it comes to hands-down fun, I have to go with stamping. There's something about the instant gratification of making a mark on fabric with paint or ink that is just so rewarding.
I love it when there is a simple solution to a problem, especially when that solution is readily available and inexpensive.
Many of you probably know I have five furry, four-legged "children." But did you know I feel a similar motherly instinct toward Quilting Arts Magazine? Asking me to choose a favorite issue is like asking me to choose a favorite child. I love them all equally!
I love the soft shimmer of metal embellishment on a quilted surface. Just a touch of metal can act as an elegant focal point. An all-over quilting pattern of metallic thread, couched wire, or foil can add texture and make the quilt seem to glow from within.
As a devotee of "Project Runway," one of the things I love most about the show-after the hilarious Tim Gunn quips-is watching how the designers translate their inspirations into line, pattern, and form. Take last week's episode, where Anthony and Maya were inspired by New York's Chinatown. Anthony's look was a dress with a honeycomb-pleated, 3-D design meandering from the right shoulder, across the front, and all the way down to the left side of the hem. This "line" was taken from the undulating paper-folded dragons seen at a Chinatown shop, and the designer made it work!
Knowing how popular patchwork is, we're offering you this FREE downloadable eBook, How to Make a Quilt: 6 FREE Patchwork Quilt Projects for Contemporary Quilts, that gives you six ways to use patchwork patterns.
Last week the staff in our Stow offices got together for some after-hours creative play-time, making gelatin monoprints on fabric and paper. I'd been cranking out monoprints for a segment I'll be shooting for the sixth season of "Quilting Arts TV" and everyone else wanted in on the fun.
In winter I crave creating with color-- during the darker, bleaker months, my studio is completely taken over by paints and dyes (think periwinkles and lime greens, cerulean blues and bubble gum pinks). Imagine my glee when I got the latest book offerings from surface design experts and Committed to Cloth founders Leslie Morgan and Claire Benn from the U.K. and their comrade Jane Dunnewold, the U.S. associate for Committed to Cloth.
We received so many fun and interesting Let Out Your Inner Animal Challenge quilts from readers that the Quilting Arts editors decided we had to play, too.

Editor's note: Jim Stafford will file daily reports about Oklahoma's presence at the four-day BIO International convention this week in Boston.
Oklahoma startup gets attention at international BIO convention
BOSTON — Bryan Fuller described the opportunities that greeted him at the 2012 BIO International Convention here this week as "huge" Monday morning before beginning a series of partnering meetings that carried deep into the afternoon.
"This place, the meetings that we have scheduled could be a real boon to us in terms of revenue coming in to grow the company," said Fuller, founder and CEO of Oklahoma City-based DermaMedics.
A former University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center scientist, Fuller founded DermaMedics after discovering a compound in his laboratory that provided protection to the skin from radiation and laser burns, rashes and other skin conditions.
DermaMedics now markets a full line of skin care products exclusively through medical professionals such as doctor's offices and clinics in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Arizona and Colorado. The company employs 14 people, half of them in sales.
The 20 partnering meetings Fuller lined up over a three-day period bring potential partners to expand DermaMedics sales to Canada, Asia, Europe and even into the pet-care industry.
"The biggest challenge for a startup is marketing," Fuller said. "If you are a company that is going to build products and sell them yourself, that's a huge marketing challenge and that's where you need this type of interaction."
80 members in group
In fact, Fuller was reluctant to join the Oklahoma contingent at the BIO show when first approached about the possibility.
"I'm so busy; I'm really the only management in the company right now," he said.

PROVING that the more things change, the more they stay the same, Wall Street analysts have their pompoms out again.
Yes, cheerleader analysts are not quite as prevalent as they were in 2000. But as the Intel earnings conference call last Tuesday showed, too many analysts still seem to think it is part of their job to high five the companies they are supposed to be assessing for the benefit of their clients.
Intel, as you may have noticed, had a magnificent third quarter. Revenues were $7.8 billion, up 20 percent from the same period last year, and net income came in at $1.7 billion, a 142 percent increase over 2002.
But listening to the question and answer period on the conference call was like being transported back to 1999. More than half of the 16 analysts who got to ask a question took care to plant a wet kiss on management's cheek before they proceeded.
The most vocal sycophants hailed from the big Wall Street firms, like Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse First Boston and Citigroup, that in January paid $1 billion to settle regulatory allegations that their analysts were too bullish on many stocks because they were improperly collaborative with their firms' investment bankers.

Palisades Park Deputy Mayor Jason Kim won't take a run at the LD 37 incumbent Assembly people.
Kim had been mulling opposing Assemblywoman Valerie Vainieri Huttle (D-37) with the support of Palisades Park Democratic Party Municipal Chairman Mike Pollotta.
This week, in advance of tomorrow's party organization deadline for candidates, Pollotta made the rounds of municipal chairs informing them that Kim was done.
Both Assemblyman Gordon Johnson (D-37) and Huttle would have withstood a Pollotta-fueled Kim attack, but sources say the target was Huttle, who came to the party as an opponent of the old guard.
Pollotta simply didn't have the votes to beat her, a source told PolitickerNJ.com.

The city is laying off staff but now they want to pay for a magistrate? One of Recker's friends?
Finally a true definition of some of our councilmen. HAHAAHA
HMMMMMM !!!! Whom do you think will be hired as a magistrate at probably $100k a year ????

Remember earlier this year when we would have news about hackers taking down websites every other day? Well, the whole hacking scene seems to have hushed down quite a bit since then, until a few days ago, when two mysterious videos were posted online by someone who claimed to be a messenger of Anonymous. The videos, directed to the people and to the media talk about a proposed attack on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) website.
However, it looks like the attack has been called off, according to an update on the uploaded videos by the Anonymous messenger. Apparently Operation #invadewallstreet has been compromised by an agent named "hypotenuse" and the whole attack has been called off. Since Anonymous is anonymous, and basically there's no way to tell if somebody is really who they claim to be, especially if they say they are or they aren't members of the group so whatever they say is best taken with a pinch of salt.
Another thing to note is that #invadewallstreet seems to only be an attack on the NYSE website – if the site goes down, trading will still go on as usual, the taking down of the website would only hamper the efforts of traders who are looking for stock information. Maybe there's more to it that hasn't been made known to the public, but let's say if the attack does get pulled off successfully, it would only prove to be a minor convenience. Check out the alleged Anonymous message to the people:
