You begin by; Picking 3 Dogsters that you think are really pawriffic and paw a little about why! Let them know how much they are loved with a rosette or by paw mail! I was tagged by the ever so beautiful Angel Kiska, from Rapid City, South Dakota. In Memory *March 9, 1999~April 10, 2004. She's been a wonderful friend to our family through good times & bad. She adored Swimming any chance she had, her round red ball, and enjoy a meal of fish! She is greatly missed by her family. You're a beautiful Angel, Kiska! Love Ya! xo My Three "Love" Tags 1. Rexie Bear, a beautiful Pomeranian Angel. In Memory *1998~2007*. Rexie was one of my very first friends on Dogster! Though he tried his best to hide from his "mama to be" on that very first meeting, he was adopted regardless. Mama knew there was something wonderful about him! She was right! He enjoyed playing with Sophia. He loved cheese, so did Joy. Life is always an adventure with a pomeranian around to love! Love Ya! xo 2. Angel Greta, a beautiful Doberman Angel. In Memory *January 1, 1992~March 6, 2002* Greta has been a wonderful friend from the beginning! I know she is missed dearly by her family. I'm sure her mommy misses her laying at her feet. Greta enjoyed meal time, yummy! She loved her rope toy with a bone attached to it. That sounds way kewl! Greta was blessed to be found by her family, on that day they went to see her.

Camila Sposati works in a beautiful house designed in modernist tradition, which transmits a certain tranquility and calmness. Its large open passageways and clear-cut layout communicate order and tidiness in the best sense of their meanings.
Camila makes coffee and we start talking about her photographs of crystals and her smoke experiments. An artist with quite unusual working methods, Camila tells me about her research and that she spends more time in laboratories than at the easel whose cliché image still adheres to artists today. Camila talks about atoms, chemical compositions, different colours, and seven different shapes according to the material she uses to grow her crystals. Her work also alludes to buildings and construction, since architects were often inspired by the flawless shapes of crystals and the way they grow, such as Joseph Paxton who built the Victorian style Crystal Palace for the first World Exhibition in London in 1851.
The enlarged photographs of Camila's crystals nevertheless reveal the defects and not at all perfect surfaces that are concealed by the images of crystals we have in mind, such as "Sculpture of Sodium Chlorate" (2007).
Camila talks about artificially grown nature and its flaws, and transfers this to a more abstract level of city structures like São Paulo, which grow in a not as organised and rather chaotic way, as well as to science, its representation systems, and concepts that seem infallible, but maybe aren't always as perfect as we think. Camila's quest is to look into the origins and etymology of things, find new representational systems of science, natural history and our established simplifying schemata. She explains that due to her time spent in laboratories and talking with scientists, she has learned a lot about this area of work, research, and a totally different way of thinking. While she is interested in the artistic aspect of it, she nevertheless finds it fascinating to enter new perspectives and modes of thinking.

While that's *technically* correct, it's not likely with a product
like this. The local differences have to do with the needs of the
local market and thing like insulation are generic. Reflectix is
used to wrap ducts (heating & cooling) or for lining attics (to keep
the heat out down south and keep the heat in up north). The stuff
that's not the same is usually seasonal or cabinetry items.
You likely got the stock answer we would give when we couldn't find
anything (long long ago in a galaxy far away I used to work in a
supermarket) or didn't want to bother looking for it. That way it
looks like it's "corporate's" problem and not because he didn't want
to be helpful. They get points for helpfulness (monthly awards,
etc.) so they will try or at least make it look like they're trying
even when it's out of their dept.
I'll stop by again tonight and get the SKU and other defining
numbers and post it. Then you can call your local HD and say I'm
looking for "....." and they can look it up in their computer and
tell you whether they have it, how much is in stock, and where it's
found in the store.

Akiria Dennis says she knows it is wrong to send a text message as a condolence, but she has done it anyway. OMG.
Listen here »
Teens today don't really talk on their cellphones. They text each other, using a common language and short codes…you know, "lol" for laugh out loud, "brb" for be right back. I myself can send up to 500 text messages in a month. Some teens may argue that they can live without their cell phones. But they would be lying.
Sometimes texting will get you in trouble because when it's not free, it puts a huge damper in the cell phone bill. And if you share your cell phone contract with your family, it hurts them as well. Texting also impacts our social skills. People send Happy Birthday text messages instead of buying birthday cards. I am a victim of this crime. I sometimes even send condolences through text messages. I know it's not right.
My friend's mother hates tattoos, but as he was getting his third tattoo, my friend texted his mom to inform her. With these kinds of examples, it's hard to say whether new communication like texting has helped society or not. We're communicating in ways our parents never taught us…and ways our parents can only barely understand.
Maybe that will change one day.

I have had this issue for a long time now. It started right after I upgraded to Version 1.5. The problem is when I cannot see the home page videos (Recommended videos in home page), Navi-x icon is disappeared form Apps AND all my favorite websites are removed and don't show up anymore.
Also, my watch later list and friends list show empty. However, after a day or two or sometimes a few hours everything gets back to normal. I'm sure the problem is not Navi-x as ALL Disappear together. I have reset the software a few times but no LUCK !!!
I believe It's because these information is saved on Boxee's server and when their server is off we can do nothing here. That's my guess. Please respond to this TH.

Spread of disease is one of the biggest concerns as relief efforts gear up after Cyclone Phailin hit eastern areas of India at the weekend. Initial government estimates estimating 8 million people have been affected and 200,000 to 350,000 homes damaged or destroyed.
Caritas India staff and their local partners are assessing the damage in Andhra Pradesh and Orissa states. Caritas ground personnel say that a majority of the impact is on property, assets, telecommunications and the disruption of the natural environment.
Caritas India says people have started slowly moving back to the villages from cyclone shelters. The water has entered many villages leading to possible hygiene concerns. Efforts are underway to contact laboratory testing units, to ensure outbreak of disease can be controlled.
Prior to the cyclone making landfall, the local government and many aid agencies coordinated the country's biggest evacuation in 23 years with more than 900,000 people moved from low-lying coastal areas to nearly 250 emergency shelters in schools and government offices. This massive evacuation helped keep reported casualties low thus far.
CRS, the American Caritas member, was involved in the evacuation efforts. John Shumlansky, CRS' country representative in India, said that, "While reports of casualties are low, we shouldn't underestimate the scale of this disaster. There are millions of people who will need support to rebuild their homes and livelihoods. CRS, the local Church, our sister Caritas agencies and other partners will work with the government to determine how we can help the poorest families as they begin that process."
Kirti Mishra, Catholic Relief Services India's operations manager based in Bhubaneshwar, spent the night in her home about 35 miles from the coast. "This morning when I left my home, it looked so devastating," she said. "I could see roads blocked with uprooted tree and response teams clearing the roads. Houses made of mud and bamboo were the worst hit and homes in the slums have completely collapsed and roofs are blown away.
"Tomorrow I'll be in the field helping with assessments and determining how CRS can best help. I'm looking forward to visiting some of the people who we help through long-term development projects and seeing how they fared in the cyclone. Catholic Relief Services and the local Church will walk with them through this emergency and continue the important work we're doing in our ongoing projects."

In this shot of The New Heathers, I superclamped an SB-600 just out of frame in the elevator shaft for accent lighting.
Love it or hate it, backlighting is a effective way to punch up music photography, whether it's on stage or off. Here's a look at getting the most out of a limited number of flashes to get this effect for band portraits.
Hey Todd,
I have two Canon speedlights, my 5D MkII, a couple f2.8 lenses and reflectors. I see a lot of your shots add at least another two speedlights for rim lighting.
So my question is: both indoors and outdoors, how can I make two speedlights work for me? Is this setup too lacking in light that I need to add some extra speedlights?
I appreciate your time heaps :)
Hey Dan,
Great question – even with abundant access to gear, it never hurts to know how to get the most out of one's gear. With multiple speedlights for backlighting, it's easier to get even coverage and to more finely tune to quality of the light, but two flashes or strobes is more than enough for both backlight and keylight.
Rimlighting for Band Photography
For outdoor, daytime photo shoots, one very simple and effective trick for maximizing your speedlights is to use ambient light as much as possible. With sunny days, you've got a third light to work with – gratis – and even on overcast days it's possible to use ambient light for an appreciable, if subtle, amount of backlighting.
For this shot of the After Midnight Project, the sun is coming from camera left, throwing some pretty broad and hot sidelighting across the group. A softbox above the camera and flash coming from camera right round out the photo.
In this portrait of 3OH!3, the sun was low in the sky, but still providing enough punch for accent lighting camera left behind Nat and Sean.
When working with no aid from the sun, it's still possible to achieve great backlighting effects with only two flash sources. In essence, all you need is one light for the key light and and one for the backlight.
In this photo of TAT, a backlight behind the group and a softbox in front and above were the only lighting elements – simple and effective.
In this shot of The New Heathers, I used several speedlights clamped together as a backlight, one light would have been enough to compliment the frontlighting here, no sweat.
Again, a light directly behind Aaron Gillespie of Underoath provides backlighting to compliment the main light.
In this portrait of DJ and producer Paul van Dyk, a speedlight camera right and behind the subject created a simple and effective treatment for PvD in action.
With Slayer here, you can see the affect of a backlight adding a bit of definition to the group and also acting on the environment, while the keylight – a softbox – lights the group from in front and above the group.
In addition to strict backlighting, a background light washing the backdrop rather than aimed at the subject can be an effective use of lights for a different way of making the subject pop.
In this shot of singer Justin Tranter of Semi Precious Weapons, a bare SB-600 positioned just below the mirror and pointed up provides a contrast to the softer light from a 45″ umbrella camera right. Still, just two lights.
If you want backlighting and only have one remote light, it's still a piece of cake to get the effect by using ambient light or a simple reflector.
In this example, I placed a 45″ umbrella directly behind singer Alana Grace for a highly feathered flavored rimlight, while a reflector in front did the rest.
Backlighting in Live Music Photography
Since I started out as a live music photographer, I think there's a huge correlation between band portraiture and the stage treatments used for concerts. Now, if only we could lug around stage rigging and a few dozen cans into the studio or on location…
End Notes:
In short, two speedlights or strobes is more than enough when it comes to creating rim lighting, especially when you have the sun at your disposal to use as a third light source. When you open up the possibility of reflectors and ambient/existing light, your options get even better. While multiple backlights will get you more flexibility, this approach is more more of a luxury than a necessary.

Wow, I really enjoyed reading this. Very informative. I'm really new to photography, especially with speedlights, so I'm sure this will help me out in the future.
Thanks a lot for writing this, it is very helpful, especially because I have some speed lights and wireless triggers coming in the mail any day now. These are some good things to consider when I try them out. Thank You.
Great article Todd! I have been working on my portrait photography and this was very helpful on positioning back lighting.

Terrific Tips!!!
I have two speed lights and the tips were wonderful!!!
Quick question with regards to your backlit speedlite photos (especially the TAT photo).
I shoot Canon, using an STE-2, a 580EXii and a 430EXII, but I'm not sure I could pull that shot off because of line of sight with the wireless setup – the few times I've given it a go, I've failed in getting the backlight to fire. I can't afford to got down the pocket wizard route, as much as I'd like to, so am I doing something obviously wrong?
Cheers mate!
Thanks for this timely article, Todd.
I killed a speedlight in sub zero temperatures on a band portrait shoot last week and am back down to two for a while.
I never even gave it a thought in the heat of the moment (no pun intended) to use a reflector up front to bounce some of the backlighting back on to the subject.
Hell, if Zack Arias can do it with one, what am I complaining about?
Great tips Todd, thank you!
Cheers Todd :)
Just humour me for a second then – how would I go about bouncing the signal from the transmitter?
For te sake of argument, using the TAT photo again – your transmitter is on the camera facing forward, band directly in front of you, speedlite behind the band facing you – how do you get an angle to bounce the signal?
Cheers again, great advice :)
some excellent tips from todd about backlighting and strobes http://tinyurl.com/ybtj8wm
Hi Todd. Great article. I'm curious however about the actual settings you use. Flash power especially, distance, F Stop, shutter speed etc. All your flash work looks quite even. Do you have comfortable pre-sets in mind for the likes of trucks and dark places or outdoor daylight work or is every shoot calculated completely separately on individual conditions?
What is the tech details of the slayer shot for exapmple?
Cheers Todd :)

I enjoyed this article and how you explained the effects of each photo. As an aspiring and beginning photographer, do you have any tips that could help me along the way?
Hi Todd LOVE your work, your photos are fantastic.
I have a speedlite 430exII st-e2 reflector umbrella. I would love to know more about your setup for the photo of Alana Grace, that feathering effect i absolutely love. I have been trying to replicate with not much success. I cant manage the feather effect, and it is too obvious that i have just stuck a big illuminated umbrella behind my subject.
Thanks Scott
Great post as always. I am a beginner in using flash and just recently picked up a SB700 & a used SB800 and wanted to find ways to utilize both. Do you have any other advice to someone just starting out in band portrait photography?
hi there….great and informative thread thanks…i only have elinchrom flash heads and large soft boxes so dont shoot on location….If using 2 speedlites would you use ettl or ettl 2 for the main subject and and manual settings for back ground illumination or rim light (using a light meter) or trial and error?
Or manual settings so you can creatively control all but ambient light.

Why Reverse Racism Doesn't Exist
Let's start out simple with this post.
Haven't we all heard it before?
-"I got bullied in school for being white. You can't tell me that's not racist!" No, this is called you being picked on by a mean child.
-"Someone called me cracker!" This is someone calling you by your privilege.
-"People can be racist against white people too."
No, they cannot. There is an inherent logical fallacy in your argument that will never make it true. However, white people can be discrimated against. Discrimination is different from racism.
Let's start from the beginning. Your first step is to accept that "a hatred or intolerance of another race" is not the definition of racism. The dictionary is wrong. Get over it.
Racism is when intolerance in government laws, attitudes and ideals of a society are ingrained in a culture to the point where patterns of discrimination towards a certain race are institutionalized as normal. If you keep this in mind, you'll understand that reverse racism doesn't- and can't- exist.
There is another saying "Racism (or sexism) = prejudice + power. POC (people of color) can be prejudiced against white people. But they can never have power, i.e. a whole system of structured support that backs them. White people often don't understand how much power they have. Just ONE white person has more power to do actual harm to a black person than one hundred black people do to that white person. A white person can KILL a black person without any consequences, while if the situation was reversed you can bet the killer wouldn't see the outside of a prison cell for a long, long time.
When white people complain about reverse racism, they are not complaining about losing their RIGHTS. What they are complaining about is losing their PRIVILEGE.
White people can never call someone else racist against them because that 'someone else' does not have the power to OPPRESS them. The person has the power to be mean.To hurt feelings.But not to OPPRESS.
THAT is the key difference. When a POC is mean to you, they are JUST being mean to you. Their entire society is not ACTIVELY discriminating against and oppressing you. Their society is not one where it is difficult for them to not be racist against you.
But yours is. And you need to accept that.

This story
was taken from Bulatlat, the Philippines's alternative weekly
newsmagazine (www.bulatlat.com, www.bulatlat.net, www.bulatlat.org).
Vol. V, No. 40, November
13-19, 2005
A year after Hacienda Luisita
massacre When will
justice be served for the victims of the violent dispersal of the Hacienda
Luisita picket line? Until now, the government agencies that investigated the
incident have not yet identified those responsible for the wanton violation of
human rights. BY DABET
CASTAÑEDA Sixty-four year old Federico Laza's voice
still breaks and his eyes become watery at the memory of his son, Jesus. A
sugarcane worker at the hacienda, 34-year old Jesus was one of the seven persons
killed in the picket line violence. That the massacre remains unresolved to this
day comes as no surprise, though, to the older Laza. "Kapag gobyerno nakapatay, talagang
malayo ang hustisya para sa mga dukhang katulad namin (If the government
kills someone, justice is far from reach for poor people like us)," he
said in an interview at the picket line where he has stayed and survived for
more than a year now. According to the preliminary report of the
Senate Committee on Labor, Employment and Human Resources Development (CLEHRD),
"there is a prevailing perception that the Philippine National Police (PNP) is
not really serious in identifying the culprits and in getting into the bottom of
the issue (of the Hacienda Luisita Massacre)." The investigation which saw four public
hearings was conducted by the committee chaired by Sen. Jinggoy Estrada. He
delivered a privilege speech on Nov. 17, 2004, a day after seven strikers were
felled by bullets and others injured in what could be the most violent picket
line dispersal in history. In his speech, the senator condemned the
"brutal and brazen display of ruthless violence by the PNP and the military" and
called on, among others, the Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE), PNP and
Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), to conduct an inquiry. Representatives of
the Central Azucarera de Tarlac (CAT), CAT Labor Union (CATLU), United Luisita
Workers' Union (ULWU), and human rights and health organizations attended the
Senate investigation. Police and DoLE officials testified during
the inquiries that the primary objective of the police presence was to open
CAT's Gate 1 which gives primary access to the cane trucks in going to the sugar
mill. DoLE Sec. Patricia Sto. Tomas said, "the
deputization of police personnel was to maintain peace and order and ensure
passage into the gates of Hacienda Luisita." Sto. Tomas issued an Assumption of
Jurisdiction (AJ) order last Nov. 10, 2004 and ordered the mill workers to
return to work while ordering the CAT management to give a P15 ($0.28, based on
an exchange rate of P54.42 per US dollar) daily wage increase and P12,500
($229.69) signing bonus. The workers originally demanded a P150 ($2.76) daily
wage increase and P30,000 ($551.27) signing bonus which went down to P32 ($0.59)
and P15,000 ($275.63), respectively. By then, however, the collective bargaining
agreement (CBA) negotiation has reached a deadlock. Police tried to disperse the strikers last
Nov. 15, 2004 but failed. In the Senate inquiry, Police Chief Superintendent
Quirino dela Torre explained that on Nov. 16, he "sought help from the Nolcom
(Northern Luzon Command) because of its proximity to the sugar estate." He also
said the strikers' ranks already swelled to 5,000. Since then, Sto. Tomas has been under fire
for allegedly abusing her authority. Enrile inquired if there was a direct
Presidential authorization to send military troops. Pimentel, on the other hand,
insisted that under Article 7, Section 16 of the 1987 Constitution, it is only
the President who can deploy the military to quell lawless violence. The
legislator blamed Sto. Tomas for the violence that occurred in the picket line.
He urged her to resign "out of delicadeza" since she acted beyond her authority.
In the inquiry, union officials have also
implicated the Cojuangco family in the massacre. Sto. Tomas has unwittingly implicated the
powerful family with her own disclosure that she decided to send military troops
after she received a call from Rep. Noynoy Aquino (Tarlac, second ditrict)
informing her that "tension was mounting in Hacienda Luisita since 50 busloads
of sympathizers from neighboring provinces had arrived to beef up the picket
line." The House representative is the son of former Pres. Corazon
Cojuangco-Aquino of the powerful Cojuangco clan in Tarlac who owns both the CAT
and the Hacienda Luisita, Inc. (HLI) sugar plantation. The report by CLEHRD Legislative Secretary
Gemma Genoveva Tanpiengco dated Dec. 1, 2004, stated that after the dispersal,
110 were illegally detained, 114 were injured and hospitalized, 32 were hit by
bullets, 39 sacadas (seasonal sugar workers) remained missing after their
arrest and 78 were victims of the looting by the police and military personnel.
However, in the report dated Feb. 3 this
year, Enrile and Estrada have said that the PNP is not keen in resolving the
issue at hand. In particular, Enrile probed on the police's
non-recovery of the material evidence in the area that was under its complete
control. PNP Deputy General Reynaldo Velasco earlier testified in the same
public hearing that they were not able to recover the slugs, shells, and
cartridges of the weapons that would point to the ones who killed the strikers.
Velasco added that they were unable to
recover the slugs that would match the firearms that were subjected to ballistic
tests. During the investigation, Senior Supt.
Arturo Quilop of the PNP-Camp Crame Crime Laboratory (PNP-CCCL) presented their
initial findings. However, Quilop himself could not testify as to the accuracy
of the findings because he was only sent by his officials to attend the
hearings. Quilop said a separate technical group investigated the dispersal.
This prompted Enrile to remove Quilop as a
resource person of the inquiry and asked that the members of the technical group
that conducted the investigation to submit themselves to the Senate
investigation instead. Before the hearing adjourned, Estrada
requested the PNP to submit to the committee the 433-page PNP report on the
Hacienda Luisita incident. But Tanpiengco, in an interview with
Bulatlat, said it has not been submitted to this day. Because of this, the
inquiry has not resumed and Senate has not completed its investigation.
The House of Representatives (HoR) also
conducted its own investigation. In the preliminary report of the joint inquiry
of the House Committees on Human Rights, Labor and Employment and Agrarian
Reform, it concluded that human rights violations were committed against the
striking workers of Hacienda Luista by the elements of the PNP, AFP and the DoLE.
It recommended the review and, if warranted,
the repeal of provisions pertaining to the AJ in the Labor Code. This
recommendation is based on the findings of the Center for Trade Union and Human
Rights (CTUHR) that "various violent dispersal of striking workers that resulted
to hundreds of human rights violations are directly attributed to the AJ." The House committees also recommended the
relief and filing of criminal and administrative charges against Supt. Angelo
Sunglao, provincial director of PNP-Tarlac, and Supt. dela Torre as well as
other officers and members of the military and police forces who violated
constitutionally-guaranteed rights of workers. The committees also recommended the filing
of appropriate charges against Sto. Tomas. However, Sunglao and dela Torre have been
relieved from their posts even before the House committees' recommendation. Sto.
Tomas has retained her post. The Commission on Human Rights (CHR)
conducted its own investigation but has not come out with its results.
On Jan. 13 this year, 52 of the victims'
survivors filed criminal and administrative charges against the HLI and CAT
owners, PNP, AFP and DoLE officials. The criminal charges filed include multiple
murder for the death of Jhavie Basilio, 20; Juancho Sanchez, 20; Jessie Valdez,
30; Jaime Fastidio, 46; Jesus Laza, 34; June David, 28; and Adriano Caballero
Jr., 23; Multiple frustrated murder, multiple
attempted murder, serious and less serious physical injuries were also filed for
the wounding of at least 72 individuals, 27 of whom sustained gunshot wounds.
Those accused as responsible were also
charged with theft and malicious mischief for stealing mobile phones,
kitchenware and sacks of rice, among others. A check at the office of the Ombudsman in
Quezon City showed that it has ended its investigations and it is now up for
review by the chief ombudsman. Bulatlat © 2005 Bulatlat

I just finished a Ha*oc cycle. I am doing PCT right now using primarily IForce Reversatrol (version 1). Was making better gains PCT then on cycle. Today I blew out a knee, but it loks like I didnt actually tear anything, just inflamation, swelling, glass feeling in knee, cant walk - but bye bye gains im sure. Anyway, the doc gave me Methylprednasone. I searched and didnt see how this will affect me, but I know I am actually trying to keep Cort low (normally).
Before anyone responds, no I didnt research this beforehand (who plans to f up their knee). Any feedback is appreciated. I am in week 1 of PCT and yes I have Nolv* onhand if I need it but was giving the OTC a try with a backup available. Great luck so far for those interested, but thats not what this post is about.

County ready for another consultant?
Jan. 23, 200712:30 p.m.
It's true, as Sedgwick County Commissioner Gwen Welshimer said last week, that citizens are "sick of consultants." She and other dissenting commissioners were right to reject another study of downtown arena parking until they know more about the study's scope and cost. That's just good fiscal oversight.
But as our Tuesday editorial argues, hiring consultants likely makes sense in this case. Crafting a final downtown parking plan involves complicated issues that call for expertise and experience, such as how best to manage the parking system, meet the needs of new neighborhood redevelopment and office space, and incorporate mass transit.
Oh, yeah — and do we need a new parking garage or not?
Commissioners need to make sure they get this right. If that means hiring a consultant, then do it.

Sam Brownback: pro-life rock star
Jan. 23, 200712:28 p.m.
On Monday's "The Daily Show," Jon Stewart suggested that Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback announced his presidential candidacy the usual way, and then another way for his base: by burning bush. For its part, the Washington Post vividly portrayed Brownback's rock star treatment at Monday's March for Life in Washington, D.C. Clearly, no one else in the GOP field is as thoroughly at home as Brownback was at an event at which cards were distributed saying "Birth Control Is Harmful," one speaker referred to a story about an "abortionist accused of eating fetuses" and another argued against allowing abortion even to protect a mother's life — to which Brownback responded, "That's a good point. Well said."

A simple swat is not child abuse
Jan. 23, 20071:02 a.m.
State Sen. Phil Journey, R-Haysville, seemed goofy in proposing a law to allow public schools to spank students. But a California assemblywoman has outdone him. Sally Lieber wants to outlaw spanking of children younger than 4 years old. Violators could get a maximum of one year in jail and a $1,000 fine.
Parents need to be careful how and when they spank, doing so judiciously and not when they are angry. There are also good discipline alternatives to spanking that more parents need to use. But a simple occasional swat is not child abuse and doesn't teach children, as Lieber claims, that "it's OK to beat or dominate children or animals that are smaller."

Richardson has the resume
Jan. 23, 20071:01 a.m.
If Democrats picked their presidential nominees on resumes alone, Bill Richardson ought to be their guy: a popular two-term governor from the newly crucial West, a Hispanic at a time when that population is exploding in the country, a former eight-term congressman, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, former secretary of energy, and on-and-off diplomat in some of the toughest foreign policy situations on Earth, including Sudan and North Korea. OK, so the Los Alamos security problems and Wen Ho Lee scandals were on his watch, and somebody somewhere will make hay out of his majoring in French (as well as political science) during his frat boy days at Tufts University. The question is whether Richardson can get any room in the spotlight. Will Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama elbow him out?

Are mean girls a product of evolution? In New York Magazine's Kat Stoeffel discusses a recent paper that argues women "evolved" into mean girls in order to ensure the propagation of their genetics by weakening their sexual rivals. The theory proposes that women use indirect aggression (i.e., calling one another "slut") to make the targeted woman "too sad and anxious to compete in the sexual market," thus lessening competition for male attention.

Speculation about declining interest in the humanities has ridden a rollercoaster of emotions and outrage. The results: Women are to blame.

Are women perpetuating the stereotype that they are less capable than men through their own language and actions? Felena Hanson writes that when women use language like "female entrepreneur" instead of "entrepreneur, it immediately puts them in the "other" category. Using language in this way, Hanson challenges, signals that women should be categorized as different from their male colleagues. Instead she wants women to "come to the table, sit down and speak up."
On July 11th, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a version of the farm bill that eliminates all nutritional aid to hungry Americans in need, which is provided mainly through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. Not since 1973 has Congress separated subsidies to farmers from individuals in need of food security. At a moment when Congress is seeking substantial changes to SNAP, it is important to ask: Who exactly is affected by changes?
Pew Research Center released a report in May 2013 titled, Record Share of New Mothers are College Educated. The report explored changing educational trends among new mothers. "New mothers" include women between the ages of 15-44 who gave birth within the last year and those whose youngest child (living in their household) is less than one year old.
Last June, this same debate played out until a last moment deal extended then-current rates for one more year. Lawmakers, much like college students, seem to be great procrastinators in getting to their work. Although one could argue in this case that the stakes are a bit higher than passing a statistics exam.

Telemedicine Becoming Reality for Prehospital EMS
With the growing availability of broadband wireless systems, people across the country are taking notice of a technology that could change the entire face of EMS.
Telemedicine is not a new technology. It's been around for years, although it typically hasn't received much attention. Until now. With the growing availability of broadband wireless systems, people across the country are taking notice of a technology that could change the entire face of EMS. One city with a lot of forward-thinking people is Tucson, AZ.
"We're running two pilot programs: an Alpha truck, which is a social service-type program, and the ER Link program, which is a telemedicine unit," says David Ridings, assistant chief of the Tucson Fire Department's EMS Division. "The ER Link program is a groundbreaking exercise in placing live streaming video in the back of ambulances that will transfer to local hospitals. We're still in the secondary phase of equipping all the ambulances with the video and completing the hospital equipment placement, and there is a training component for all the department's paramedics."
By the time you read this, the program should be up and running in conjunction with the University Medical Center—the regional trauma center attached to the University of Arizona.
"We're going to limit the program initially to trauma and expand to medical illnesses later on," Ridings explains. "There will be a video camera on the outside of each ambulance and one in each patient compartment that will include video, audio and data transfer through a wireless mesh network from a moving ambulance to telemetry units at the trauma center via radio receivers attached to traffic signals or light poles within the city limits."
The primary advantage of this technology, says Ridings, is the ability to better prepare the hospitals for the patients they're about to receive.
"The hospitals will be able to mobilize their response to trauma based upon what they see in the patient from the field," he says. "They can see and talk to the patient and view the accident scene. The live video on an accident scene will show the degree of damage to the vehicles and how that mechanism was transferred to the patients. They'll have a better look at what the paramedics are seeing in the field."
A future goal for Tucson is to add telemedicine to the already-existing Alpha truck, which responds to chronic, or frequent flyer, calls to the 9-1-1 system.
"Instead of the old cycle of alcoholics and system abusers who constantly drain the system by putting demands on it, we hope to add video to the trucks and use doctors as intermediaries to acknowledge that these people don't have to come to the ED if they aren't emergent," says Ridings. "We run about 72,000 calls in Tucson a year, and approximately one-sixth, or 12,000 calls, involve nonemergent medical care, which places a huge burden on the prehospital system. Any tool we have to alleviate that problem is a benefit to us."
Why the long wait?
If telemedicine can solve so many problems, why is it taking so long to catch on?
"Much of it has to do with the communications infrastructure and computing power," says Michael Smith, president of New Jersey-based General Devices, a producer of voice and data communications equipment and telemedicine systems for EMS. "Three to four years ago, mesh technology was something people were playing with. Now, those systems are being sold in most U.S. cities and will become commonplace in a few short years. More than 300 large cities have bought broadband wireless, so it comes in at a fairly reasonable cost and it's enormously powerful. Being able to have 700 kilobits per second or 2 megabits per second come out of a moving ambulance is astounding. In Tucson, that means they can be connected anywhere they want to be. With the Internet, anywhere can be literally any place in the world. Second, the cellular system has gotten much better and people are starting to see the capabilities of their cell phones that have cameras in them.
