Official Counting Crows Website
My wife and I are going to the show and to also celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. The reason that I am writing this is because for the 1st time we both love the same music of the Counting Crows. This is very rare for us as she has different musical taste.
Her favorite song is "Round Here" ,so if Adam or anyone else reads this please try to include this song in the set list. She is a remarkable women and has raised two great daughters and is also an extremely hard working 2nd grade school teacher in NJ.
Thank you, Howard & Diane

ENet for C# wraps the C-language ENet networking library. For games and other realtime applications, if you use TCP, old data can hold up newer data, even if it is no longer relevant (old positions, etc.). Your players will perceive any lost packet as a "lag burst". ENet supports multiple in-order streams of data, and allows you to decide on reliability on a per-packet basis. The library is useful for both client-server and peer-to-peer architectures.
System# is a .NET library intended for the description of real-time embedded systems. It comes with a built-in simulator kernel and a code transformation engine that converts a design into synthesizable VHDL. The main focus is currently the development of FPGA designs. System# not only supports register-transfer-level (RTL) descriptions whose translation to VHDL is straightforward, but is also capable of converting clocked threads with wait statements to a synthesizable VHDL state machine. Furthermore, System# introduces synthesizable transaction-level modeling features. From a technological point of view, it uses reflection and assembly code (CIL) decompilation to reconstruct an abstract syntax tree (AST) from the system design. The AST conforms to SysDOM, a document object model for describing component-based reactive systems. An unparsing stage converts the AST to VHDL. The decompilation process can be instrumented in various ways by attribute-based programming. Furthermore, transformations of the AST itself are possible. This enables implementation of advanced features such as converting clocked threads to finite state machines.
SourceAFIS is a fingerprint recognition/matching SDK (library), or more generally an Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). It essentially compares two fingerprints and decides whether they belong to the same person. It can quickly search a large database of registered fingerprints. It comes with an easy-to-use API (pure .NET and Java) plus assorted applications and tools.
Image Tools is a screen capture and file sharing tool. It features multi-threaded batch image resizing, conversion, cropping, flipping/rotating, watermarks, decolorizing (grayscale, negative, sepia), and optimizing. The BMP, GIF, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, and EMF image types are supported. It is compatible with MONO (only for GNOME). Multicore processing is supported to increase performance. The quality for output when optimizing is variable. Color channels can be filtered. An internal benchmarking tool is available. Indexed pixel format images can be processed.
Renaming a file works well when there is just one. But when you have a directory full of them, it gets tedious quickly. With nametrans, you can use search and replace on your list of files as you would on text in a document. And with regular expressions, you have even more power to transform file names (and whole file paths) systematically. With useful presets for common fixes like lowercasing or capitalization, you can keep your filenames nice and tidy, whether 10 or 10,000 of them, in one go.

Hundreds of people gathered in downtown Anchorage to show support for the city's homeless youth population Tuesday evening.
It was the Covenant House Alaska's annual Candlelight Vigil for Homeless Youth, and people showed up to help support and show solidarity for the population of children.
Kevin Ryan, the president of Covenant House International, said the organization takes care of thousands of those kids, who would otherwise have nowhere to go.
"If not for Covenant House, there are so many kids who end up making so many terrible decisions; kids who are going to affiliate with gangs, young people who are going to end up spiraling downward in drugs, kids who are going to end up dead because it's too cold on the streets, kids who are going to get preyed on by pornographers, predators and traffickers," he said. "This is an opportunity for kids to come into safety, make good decisions, and really embrace the great promise of their lives. It's about giving kids hope, moving kids from that desperation of the streets to the opportunity of the future."
Covenant House Alaska is building a new location for more spaces for children to sleep. Last year, the organization served 5,700 children.
The vigil included singing, prayer and remarks from Gov. Sean Parnell, among others. Twenty-three community leaders, including former Gov. Tony Knowles, volunteered to spend the night outdoors in the organization-sponsored Sleep Out.

While participating in the Madagascar [2] junket, Ben Stiller pitched an idea for a super villain protagonist that director Tom McGrath immediately responded to. Unfortunately, DreamWorks couldn't get Robert Downey Jr. and Stiller to join the voice cast because of their busy schedules. But they did land Will Ferrell, Tina Fey and Brad Pitt to star in the role bending Megamind, which Stiller co-produced, opening Nov. 5 from DreamWorks Animation and Paramount Pictures. McGrath discusses what it was like working with Ferrell, Fey and Pitt City and raising the animation and 3-D bars.
Bill Desowitz: It's interesting that with Megamind and Despicable Me [3] you have two different takes on the super villain as hero.
Tom McGrath: Yeah, and I was disheartened when I heard about it and we were half-way through production, because that's what sold me on the movie originally. Other than the Grinch, I can't think of too many stories that are centered on the villain. Nightmare Before Christmas, to a degree. So I was worried about it. But what we were going for with this film was not playing to the younger crowd as much as to the people that know the genre. We're all doing our thing and for us it's very hard in animation and I'm sure the folks on Despicable Me were wondering about what was in our head as well. I think they're very much different -- ours is a complete anti-hero story; the full arc.
BD: As you've said, Megamind takes its cue from Superman: "What if Lois and Lex find out they were meant to be together?"
TM: And the handle that I took was that these characters were rock stars: In the design it was always Megamind's Alice Cooper vs. Metro City's Elvis Presley in the way they handle their stage presence. But after seeing Despicable Me, I thought it was charming and didn't feel threatened by it, other than from the standpoint of their both being from the point of view of villains. But I don't think it takes anything away.
BD: What were the story challenges?
TM: To make the villain empathetic. And casting was a big part of that. Will can be vulnerable and charming, so I give a lot of credit to him. Having that charm.
BD: He never gives up.
TM: Yeah, that's his super power. The humor sprung from character.
TM: We did all the sessions in New York and just picked three key ones where they're interacting together. And no wall between them. The timing in their acting and the pauses made such a difference and they can't be manufactured. Tiny provided smarts and was real aware of the character. There was one point where Tina offered a couple of her writers off 30 Rock, Robert Carlock, who's a genius, and Matt Hubbard. They came in, watched the film and brainstormed; and it was great to get insight into their process and how they work on their show. We probably used just a handful of lines because it was late in the game.
BD: Anything in particular?
TM: Yeah, there's a dry scene when Megamind has created Tighten [Jonah Hill] and he comes to Roxanne's door. And she says, "Why did my doorman let you up?" And he holds up the dehydrated guy and she goes, "Carlos!"
BD: I understand you got some comments from Guillermo del Toro. What were his suggestions?
TM: We were about three weeks out from finishing the movie, and Guillermo had just come to the studio to consult on other projects and make his own animated movie [Trollhunters]. So he saw the movie and really liked it -- the whole story about good vs. evil and breaking down stereotypes -- and had one big note: "What if in the opening shot [Megamind] is falling to his death?" We always opened with the origin story and how he fell to earth. That kind of pulled everything full circle as we revisit that scene at the end of the film. It just kind of plugged right in and felt really good and was great to have that fresh, filmmaker set of eyes on the movie. Something he and Cameron [4] do on their films -- to be blatant about it -- is "frame f…ing," where you cut the heads and tails off just as a pacing thing and so by doing that we ended up speeding up the pacing.
BD: Wasn't the biggest challenge making us believe that she falls for him?
TM: Yeah, that was the biggest, hardest thing to pull off and the thing you worry about when you go home at night. But the thing about it is there's the stage presence of Megamind, where he's big and powerful, but then there's the guy behind the mask because it's the story of a guy who wants to just fit in and be considered normal, so, in some way, there's a little Phantom of the Opera and Beauty and the Beast [5]. And that's what she's drawn to: that side of him that's beneath the mask.
TM: Brad's great. The interesting thing for me was that the first movie I ever worked on was Cool World in 1990 -- and I met Brad. He was this young guy with great hair and you just knew that he was going to be somebody. So 20 years later, he has no memory of me, which is understandable. He was fine -- he's very physical and a lot funnier than people assume. To break out in animation, we talked about his role being kind of this Elvis guy that can work a crowd, so I gave him this hand-held mike just because the first recordings you felt he was pinned behind this podium. And then later on he'd still be roaming around the whole sound booth with the mike; it does affect your voice when you are so physical.
BD: So what was the animation challenge?
TM: To try and make the acting more sophisticated and more nuanced. We had better tools to do it now and so you want the comedic timing and comedic broadness, but to also get the subtlety of the love story. We did multiple takes to find the fine nuance. For example, the scene in the rain when she says, "How could you be so evil tricking me? What were you hoping to gain?" His response was, "Because I love you." And to do that you had to be very subtle in how he moved his head and what's reading in his eyes. The technology has come a long way but I think what Cameron did with Avatar [6] helps elevate animation because he credits the actors and it was based on their performance, but we're still animators taking our cues from what the camera captures.
BD: And I like your notion of 3-D allowing us to be a better voyeur with action as well as intimacy.
TM: Yeah, it's the difference from being objective to subjective, in a way. It makes you more a part of it.

People are so sensitive these days. I think it's racist on their part that they're trying to limit the use of the word "bro" solely to African-Americans. Go fucking cry.
Exactly. When I first seen the u mad bro? stuff pop up on this site, never did I think, wow, how racist.

LOL because "bro" and "nigger" are the exact same words!
I fucking hate idiots and people in general.
Apparently, they are indeed mad.
"You mad African american?"..mmm...nope just doesn't sound the same.
Haha next thing we know the word "dude" is gonna be racist and then "man"! Then I won't be able to say "dudemanbro" anymore!
Though this is old news I think it's important for people to realize that they don't have the right to NOT be offended, so why there's an investigation baffles me.

Flooding in Thailand to adversely affect PC shipments according to analysts
The flooding in Thailand will cause a decline in PC shipments, according to analysts. The disaster has caused operations to cease at more than a dozen HDD factories in the country which, as of 2011, holds a 40 to 45 percent worldwide marketshare of HDD production. While most of 2011 production occurred before the flooding, PC production is still expected to decline during the quarter and decline even further in 2012. "PC shipments will decline between 2.2% and 3.4% in the fourth quarter from a year earlier, down from a prior forecast for 5.1% growth," according to Bloomberg, citing IDC numbers. "In the first quarter, shipments may drop by 1.8 percent to 13.4 percent. IDC had projected a gain of 8.2 percent."
So if you are planning on purchasing a new PC for gaming, or building one from scratch, now is the time to do it. Thanks, ArsTechnica.

NXE: Bungie explains why Halo 3 loads faster from disc that hard drive
There's a lengthy explanation from Bungie here as to why Halo 3′s load times are increased by installing the game the an NXE-enabled 360′s hard drive.
For the time-pressed reader: the game caches maps to the HD whether it's loading from the disc or the drive. Hence, if it's running from the HD, it's reading and writing from the same source. Which means it's slower than if it's running from the disc. That's the main reason, anyway.
Got it? No? Read the full thing through the link, thicko.

Tretton: Sony considering PSP with HDD
SCEA boss Jack Tretton said this morning that the company is still mulling over whether to implement an internal storage device to PSP.
"I think we definitely thought about it," he said. "I think that's the trend moving forward."
He went on to say that as the cost of memory continues to diminish, the chance that PSP's next hardware revision will contain a hard drive of some sort is increasing.
Thanks, Kotaku.

Wolf Blitzer delivers the most important news and political stories of the day. Tune to The Situation Room weekdays 5-6:30pm ET on CNN.
It was seven years ago that Wolf Blitzer first told audiences, "You're in the Situation Room." To mark the seven-year anniversary, Wolf Blitzer played a clip from the very first show.
Wolf also reflected on his most significant memories as anchor.
Happy anniversary.
CNN, CNN, CNN, CNN, CNN....I'll never forget the scene in Lybia, shown live on CNN last year, when Ben Weidleman was covering a rally of rebels live, in Benzangali, Lybia, and when Ben and his CNN vehicles got there, the crowd of Lybian rebels, broke out into a CNN chant. If it wasn't for CNN and The Situation Room commanded by Wolf Blitzer, I'd cancel my cable subscription.

I started this blog with a list of the 10 Best Sit-coms since 1980, but in light of last week's season finale of Battlestar Galactica, it's time to unleash my inner geek and look at the best sci-fi TV series of all-time: 10. Mystery Science Theater 3000Certainly the funniest sci-fi show of all time (apologies to both Futurama and Red Dwarf), MST3K was as good as the movies it parodied were bad—meaning it was very, very good.

Per Mike Farrell he has decommitted.
•Football Schedule•Basketball Schedule•Forum•About•ContactI don't think Bosa is going to take off. Notre Dame is up to something though. Pecuiliar all the sudden they are landing denfensive and offensive players left and right. Perhaps someone has opened up their wallet in South Bend.
Maybe Heurman was able to sway him. Awfully weird how they were certain Buckeye locks, then they needed to step back and take it all in and think things over. What is Kelly telling these guys.
Pretty sad we lose a star recrut over Twitter. Why would you allow some pedder-ass, or a older fan take pictures with you. Thats creepy. If your taking pictures for kids cool. this is all so weird.
Dustin Fox was our leading tackler as a corner.... because his guy always caught the ball.
Man, he was my favorite commit in this class.... Hopefully he somehow finds his way back into the class.
When I walked in this morning and saw the flag was at half mast I thought, "Alright, another bureaucrat ate it." but then I saw it was Li'l Sebastian. Half mast is too high. Show some damn respect.
If we lose Bosa I'll be stunned and sad for days. Twitter is so stupid to begin with. Whatever happened to privacy in this country. Who cares what someone else is up to everyday. If you follow people on Twitter non stop, you probably lack something in your own life. I guess this generation of recruit is all about attention.
Dustin Fox was our leading tackler as a corner.... because his guy always caught the ball.
Wow...Not the news I was hoping for after getting home from work. Heuerman picks Notre Dame, Anzalone de-commits, don't like the odds of keeping Bosa if he was as close to those guys as it seemed. If Brian Kelly lands all these guys and Jaylon Smith what a kick to the groin that would be.
There are a lot of assumptions being made, it could just be that this was a coincidence. This is what I hate about recruiting over half a class before they even play their senior year in high school. Guys are going to go back on their verbals. Other coaches, like Kelly, are going to be in their ear non stop until signing day.
Shame there isn't an early signing period in college football.
Okay...so a guy de-commits become some creeper was talking to them...sounds weird.....he wants to go to the school, loves Urban, loves everything and then this happens....seems like a small thing when you consider everything else....weird....I'm done with recruiting!
I would say he is gone. He would not have to decommit to think things over. He could have stayed committed and checked out his options unless Urban said that if you make other visitations you are off the team. Irricoir's comments about character and standing by your word are starting to ring true. I hope Urban does not take these two back.
Remember to get your wolverine spade or neutered. TBDBITL
That's what I'm saying Jason, I think the timing is a coincidence. Something is going on. Heuerman decided not to commit, Neal decommitted, then this with Anzalone. Maybe there is something else at play here. Being a program. Also, the tweet from Pantoni said anything can be a recruiting violation, even meals. I have a couple of thoughts.
1) perhaps there is some bad news in the works that some other violations have been found and they are letting the kids know now.(Hope not)
2) Maybe this perve actually gave the recruits improper benefits and they are no longer allowed to come to Ohio State since Ohio State is on probation and can't have any funny business going on, whether they know about it or not.
I have a strong feeling Meyer's reaction to stuff like this will be the sort of thing Harry Truman would order to end a war. This dude won't be allowed within miles of Ohio State Football-and rightfully so. Some people just think they can insert themselves into something that doesn't want or need their participation. Be a fan. Cheer your team on, shoot be the annoying guy at the bar who lets everyone know how happy you are when your team scores a TD but for heaven's sake, quit thinking you have anything to do with this team. His convo with Land Grant was creepy. "Im sorry, Ohio State is my team, I just like to motivate". Listen, bro. Go back to Bdubs and continue to work on your "Physique by Chicken Wing". Leave the motivation to the coaches and players and watch the game from your one bedroom apartment.
Every team has them but the our lowest common denominator fans have to be the worst in the country. This guy is a bored, sad, pathetic, tubby man. If he reads this board, I hope he reads this post. Get the heck away dude. You aren't helping.
4-6 seconds from point A to point B and when you get to point B, be pissed off
And it would be best if we all did not jump to conclusions or make statements of others decommiting. If it happens so be it but someone will read those statements as fact and take off with them in some way. Just be patient and we will get the truth and find out what is going on.
I think that Taspra's comment is the most likely scenario, but I don't want to jump to conclusions.
When I walked in this morning and saw the flag was at half mast I thought, "Alright, another bureaucrat ate it." but then I saw it was Li'l Sebastian. Half mast is too high. Show some damn respect.
First and foremost, it sucks that some fuckhead on twitter is a pedophile and got involved in these kid's lives. I hope everyone is OK, and this fuckhead is dealt with accordingly.
That being said, the opposing B1G football programs are scared b/c Urban Meyer and Ohio State joined forces. They know what's coming, and are trying everything to impede the ensuing football dominance. Like Jim Tressel, Urban Meyer is going to be responsible for other B1G coaches getting fired.
I'd give urban a B- right now. He's reopened the boarders and now this. Tressel's operation was much better. We are getting away from what we've been and that's winning the big ten, going to the rose bowl, and most especially beating Michigan. None of these seem to be a priority with meyer, let's face it Michigan is back because we lost our guy.
"You'll be proud of our young people in the classroom, in the community, and most especially in 310 days in Ann Arbor, Michigan on the football field."
I don't care about losing a recruit because Urban will get more quality players. My only concern is how this will affect our probation if recruiting violations happened by the pedo guru. I want to be competing for a national championship next season and as long as we don't have a longer bowl ban if something happened we should be just fine.
If this kid decommitted because of this weirdo I don't get it. Ohio State stepped up to the plate and warned everyone of their athletes to stay away from this guy. If you were a parent of this kid or any kid for that matter wouldn't you think that's the kind of school I would want my child to go to. As soon as they found out who this guy was and what he was up to they quickly warned every one.
It's not like OSU invited this guy to hang around these players. This was just some random guy who happened to be a pedophile. I guarantee every single fan base in the nation has more than one of these weirdos. If that's his or his parents thinking that you're not going to OSU because of some weirdo than he shouldn't go to any major football program in the country.
Like I said I don't get it if that's the reason he bailed. OSU stepped up to the plate immediately and did the right thing by warning everyone. Also I'm sure this guy will not be allowed near campus ever again.
It may be kind of a knee-jerk reaction on his part, but don't forget he's from Penn State's back yard, so I would imagine he and his family are pretty sensitive to this kind of thing right now. Plus, it's unclear how much interaction he had with this guy who by reports was hanging out with both current players and recruits spring game weekend... not just tweeting and taking a picture, but actually hanging out with them, implying (whether it's true or not) that he has more access to player and recruits than the average fan. That probably hits too close to home for someone from PA.
If this pedo scared him away from OSU, will he then consider PSU? Makes no sense.
Almost every report has him eyeing Penn State. If the pedo thing is true... why would he be considering PSU? If the reports of him eyeing PSU are true, then the pedo thing can't be his reason for decommitting.
this is all what I heard, I am not claiming this as fact or anything as the such.....
a story I heard was that AA's parents were hella pissed about the fact that this weirdo was so "connected" to the program, and they allegedly ripped into UFM, and he basically got upset b/c they were so mad and went off on a tangent to him about something that he had no control over, and UFM basically just wiped his hands clean of AA and both sides moved on.
as I said, this was all given to me from someone else, but the guy who told me is usually spot on with tOSU news.....
^^^agree with upnorth. Not that its a good thing that these creeps are around but Columbus is a big city. Living off campus it wasn't that uncommon to get a couple of those sex offender notifications each year. Weirdos gotta live somewhere I guess, just avoid them. Whole situation sucks.
Unfortunately, I think this means we lose Bosa. And I REALLY don't want that to happen, but I wouldn't be shocked if we do.
I think that some sort of violation occured with that derranged fan buying them drinks/food or something, and Urban doesn't want to risk more sanctions. That's the most plausible explanation so far. It would make sense. Remember when there was a lot of buzz about Heuerman moving up his commitment and he was supposedly all-Buckeye. But then he didn't, and ended up at ND instead. Maybe those things are related?
When I walked in this morning and saw the flag was at half mast I thought, "Alright, another bureaucrat ate it." but then I saw it was Li'l Sebastian. Half mast is too high. Show some damn respect.
And so it begins in the national media http://content.usatoday.com/communities/campusrivalry/post/2012/05/ohio-state-players-warned-about-contact-from-sex-offender/1
Confirmed that it was due to that creep of a kiddy-diddler Charles Waugh:
Here's to hoping that he gets thrown in jail where he belongs and can get the harsh "treatment" he deserves.
At least the University did everything in their power to handle the situation as best they could after the fact.
"The time you give a man something he doesn't earn, you cheapen him. Our kids earn what they get, and that includes respect." - Woody Hayes
Not sure if he's trying to avoid lawsuit or really is having a change of heart but...
"I want people to understand, I have no beef with Ohio State, at all," Sal Anzalone said. "My issue is not with Ohio State: It's a great institution, they have a phenomenal president, Urban Meyer is nothing but a class act to me.
His father, Sal Anzalone, has done more harm than good for this kid. All of the national media attention this kid is getting in light of a pedo getting a picture with him, has to be embarassing. Unless he's the next James Laurinaitus, for awhile he will be remembered as "the recruit who had his pic with that pedo loser". Good job, dad
"You win with people." - Woody Hayes
If anyone was wondering how UFM would handle adversity - this is a great sign...This statement being recanted by Dr. Anzalone is a direct result of PR damage control done by Coach Meyer. It's really not important whether Alex Anzalone comes to OSU or goes to UF...It's important that UFM put OSU first & is trying to stop the negative spin.
The world is full of kings & queens who'll blind your eyes & steal your dreams - it's heaven & hell - Ronnie James Dio.
After reading some of the articles about this story it sounds like anzalone is using this excuse to back out of a decision he wasn't quite sure of. It appears that his dad lives his life for him and makes all his decisions for him. If this kid seriously decommits bc of this then we really don't want this pansy on our team. There was no way Ohio state could avoid this issue. Unfortunately there are crazy people everywhere. Picking another college isn't going to protect you from the bad people. Best of luck to you kid. Hope one day u make your own decisions for yourself and not let daddy decide your future.

Osho,The other morning when I heard you talking about sexual energy, AIDS and birth control, I felt such a pure rightness about each thing that you said. You are the intellectual giant of the century: there is no competition. I also feel a sense of urgency. What can I do to spread your words, or is that something only you can do?
The question you have asked has raised many questions.
First, I am not an "intellectual giant of the century." That kind of misunderstanding is very possible, particularly because whatever I have to say has to be said through the intellect. But intellect is only a means, a vehicle, a medium; it is not the source of what I am saying. It is not the meaning of my life and my being. I am not an intellectual. In fact, I am the most anti-intellectual person who has ever existed on this earth. I will have to explain to you.
Intellect is thinking about things you do not know. How can you think about things you do not know? It is simply groping in the dark. I am reminded of the old definition of a philosopher. A philosopher is purely intellectual. The old definition of a philosopher is of a man who is blind, and in the darkest night, in a house that has no light, he is searching for a black cat that does not exist.
The intellectuals go on doing great gymnastics of the mind. They go on thinking about things that they do not know. Naturally, they never come to any conclusions. And it is impossible to come to any conclusion, to any realization through intellectual processes; hence the whole philosophical effort of the world has been an exercise in utter futility.
All philosophy is bunk. No philosopher has contributed any new insight, any new consciousness, any new festivity to the world, any new celebration to man's consciousness. No philosopher has contributed to the beauty of this planet and this humanity. But they have been doing tremendous work all their lives – creating great systems of thought which are nothing but castles in the air, soap bubbles.
The greatest intellectuals and philosophers of the world are just children, playing on the sea beach, making castles out of the sand. You cannot live in those castles; in fact, just a little breeze and your castle disappears.
Mind can be used in many ways. One is the way of the intellectual: he goes round and round and round, about and about and about. He moves in a circle, which is of course unending. Every circle is unending. He travels much but he never reaches anywhere. This is the most futile use of your mind.
The other way is to use the mind not in circles but as a straight, horizontal line – one-dimensional. That's how the scientific, the mathematical, the logical genius uses the mind. He moves in a straight line, but horizontally. He comes to certain conclusions, he comes to certain discoveries, he comes to certain inventions. He enriches the world as far as matter is concerned, as far as technology, machines and knowledge about objects is concerned.

Maroon Vol. XXXVIII Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday, February 16, 1962 No. 15 Fr. Hallett discusses new society The world is presently experiencing a social evolution which will result in a supersociety.This is the conclusion reached by the Rev. Garth Hallett, S.J., philosophy instructor, in his lecture on Teilhard de Chardin's, "The Phenomenon of Man," given last night in Marquette auditorium as one of a series sponsored by the Philosophy club. Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, famous French Jesuit anthropologist, sought an answer to the question, "Can a Christian, in conscience, devote himself wholeheartedly to world progress?" Father Hallett explained that Teilhard believed that he could if world progres is achieving something of definite value. • WORLD EXAM "The Phenomenon of Man" is Teilhard's answer to this problem. According to Teilhard, a super-society is the goal toward which the world is evolving. His chief idea is continuous evolution: the world has evolved, is evolving, and will evolve according to a descernible pattern. In his examination of the world's evolution, up to and including the present, Teilhard found the same pattern of mounting consciousness in ever-increasing complexity. Father Hallett noted the parallel between the present social development and the biological evolution which Teilhard believed to precede the advent of man. This pattern infers the goal of world evolution: some definite social synthesis, a super-eociety. • CHARITY VITAL "This vision of the future," Father Hallett stressed, "is extended and clarified by Christian teaching on the Mystical Body of Christ." The role of Christian charity is one vital and important in Teilhard's view of the future of mankind as one body, centered on Christ. ADG collection nets $198.75 Alpha Delta Gamma fraternity has collected $198.75 for the March of Dimes in a door-to-door campaign, announced Albert Dittmann, president. "Besides ADG's national philanthropic works, each chapter is urged to sponsor charitable projects on the community level," Dittmann said. Members collecting were Dittmann, Bob Oertling, Don Vaccarro, Jim Foley, Jim Ryan, Cal Caliva, Doug Giorgio, Peter Vollenweider, Richard Sandefur, Danny Smetherman, Ken Sills, James Roberts, Jim Shaw, Don Cashio, Peppi Bruneau, Bobby Caswell, Alex Ortalano, Eric Leßlanc, Joseph Casey and Matt Rice.

For the top feature flip through to ... Page 5 Maroon endorses Duplantier The editorial staff of the Loyola Maroon recommends the election of State Senator Adrian Duplantier as Mayor of the City of New Orleans. We base this endorsement on our belief that Adrian Duplantier is the best qualified candidate for the office of mayor. In considering both candidates, we concluded that Duplantier has the integrity and leadership needed for the office. Duplantier is the kind of young aggressive leader that New Orleans needs to carry on its record of good, city government. We believe that Duplantier will not only carry on the past administration's good record, but will add to it. Duplantier we feel will bring new ideas into City Hall and because of his youth will have the energy and drive needed to carry them out. Duplantier is the only candidate with a positive platform and plan for the city. In meeting the needs of the Michoud space plant, Duplantier plans to work with the universities and with the Delgado Trade school to conduct hurryup technical training courses for New Orleans citizens, so that they may obtain jobs when the plant swings into full operation. With the tremendous growth Michoud will bring, we need more than ever an imaginative leader to cope The editorial comment expressed herein does not necessarily reflect the official policy of the university, but is the opinion of the editorial staff of this newspaper. with the growth and problems brought by this complex. Because of the untimely coalition that seems to have been made between our Mayor and the Governor, we feel that New Orleans will no longer be safe from state control if it remains under present administration. Editorial "* Duplantier on the other hand will keep our city free from outside control. Despite strong opposition by state officials, Senator Duplantier stood fast in his fight of harmful legislative bills. He has fought against every increase in tax. He was the first to speak out against the recent one-cent sales tax being pushed by the state. While in the senate he tried to get the state to invest their idle funds so that Louisiana could collect revenue from their investment, thus easing the state's financial difficulties. A Loyola graduate, the university is proud of Adrian Duplantier and his accomplishments since his graduation. His achievements both as a public servant and private citizen cover a wide range of activities. He is a member of civic, charity, and Catholic organizations. He is active in alumni affairs and a leader in the Knights of Columbus. In 1960 he was recognized by the Junior Chamber of Commerce as the outstanding young man-of-the-year. ADRIAN DUPLANTIER NSA urges education bill support The Rev. Robert L. Boggs, S.J., dean of students, urges Loyolans to heed NSA's requests that students write their Congressmen in support of two federal aid to higher education bills which will appear before the House and Senate soon. NSA also wishes students to oppose an amendment in the Senate bill which would require the loyalty oath. Father Boggs does not agree with this latter request. The first bill which will appear before the House is titled the "College Academic Facilities Act" (HR 8900). This bill doesn't mention scholarships but makes available federal grants on a matching basis for construction of school facilities and provides that the state commission will administer the grants. It does not provide for facilities to be used for sectarian institutions or places of religious worship.The Senate bill, "College Academic Facilities and Scholarship Act" (Senate 1241), makes available loans for construction of academic facilities and four year scholarships which would be distributed by state commissions. This is the bill containing an amendment, which if passed, would place federal scholarships under the national education for defense element. The loyalty oath would then be required on all scholarship applications. With regard to the loyalty oath, Father Boggs said, "Make the applicants take the loyalty oath. If they (Congress) want to put it in, let them. A lot of p«ople have to take loyalty oaths especially government workers. "I don't see any reason why a person should not take the oath, for if he's not a communist, he wouldn't object to it. I don't see Council votes to discontinue Prom and Hausmann trophy The Student Council voted to discontinue the Hausmann trophy and the junior-senior prom at Tuesday's meeting. James Skiffington, president of evening division and head of the Council's constitution committee, said that the reasons behind these decisions were that the Hausmann trophy was defunct as an award and that the junior-senior prom proved very unprofitable last year. According to Council President Ken Sills, the competition for the Hausmann award last year was very "skimpy" among the freshmen and sophomore classes. The award was once presented to either the sophomore or freshman class for competition in academicacademic and athletic prowess. Sills said that now most of the freshmen and sophomores are participating in intramurals and ROTC events and this leaves little time for class competition. He said that it was best to establish a new award to promote the intramural and ROTC events. Regarding the junior-senior prom, Sills reported that a survey was conducted on campus. Results were that 60 per cent of Loyolans were against the function, 30 per cent didn't even know it was held, and 10 per cent were for the prom. That some activity be arranged for the seniors after their exams was suggested by Sills. He proposed stag events for the male and coed students, respectively. Larry McNamara, school of law president, objected to the motion that the Council eliminate the prom because a future Council might decide to reinstate the event and would have to wade through a "lot of rigmarole" in order to vote the prom in again. He said that he was in doubt as to whether the Council should decide to vote against the prom and thereby deprive other Councils of having the dance. After the Council voted the trophy and prom out of existence, Sills asked that the constitution committee delete the sections of the constitution containing the trophy and prom rules. SC delays vote on 'libel' issue The Student Council tabled a resolution Tuesday which recommended to the administration that intercollegiate sports activities between Loyola of New Orleans and Loyola of Chicago be discontinued. The resolution was proposed by Council President Ken Sills because of alleged uncomplimentary comments made by Chicago coach, George Ireland. Ireland reportedly attacked New Orleans' treatment of his integrated basketball team in a telephone interview with the press. The resolution was tabled because certain Council members objected to voting on it until necessary facts were presented at the next meeting. • RECRUITMENT BLOCK Presenting his resolution to the Council, Sills said, "I believe that Ireland has pulled the best maneuver of knocking a person's recruitment program that could ever be pulled off. He (Ireland) would probably never admit his statements were true." Sills continued, saying that in his (Sills') hometown paper, bold headlines read: Loyola Hit By Racial Trouble, Scores Easy Win. Ireland, supposedly, was enraged by the segregation in eating places here plus the reported statement of Xavier university officials that Ireland might incur arrest if he allowed Xavier to house his white and Negro players. Xavier has denied the statement.Ireland had to relocate his Negro players in private homes and board his white athletes in hotels. The point was made by Sills that if Coach Gardiner and Ireland were to compete for players in their respective recruitment programs, Ireland would always have the advantage by referring his prospective players to the journalistically recorded "offenses" of Loyola of the South. • BOYCOTT "Other papers printed that 4,000 Negroes boycotted the Loyola game and created the picture in the minds of readers of Negroes picketing the fieldhouse," emphasized Sills. The Council president continued to give other reasons for passage of his resolution. "I don't think we should condone Ireland's at- Valentine's Day sentiment Valentine's day, last Wednesday, was a day close to the hearts of all Loyolans as Cupid darted all over the campus slinging his arrows at vulnerable students hit hard by the unseasonably springlike weather. Bob Raphael, business administration junior, kidding ly presents to arts and sciences freshman Carol Greco a valentine to symbolize the lacy greetings everyone hoped to receive from their someone special. Resolution - Whereas: The Student Council affirms the section of the Code of Honor pertaining to Loyalty; to our university; and Whereas: Loyola of New Orleans played a varsity basketball game with Loyola of Chicago on Tuesday, Jan. 23, 1962, and Whereas: Coach George Ireland issued various statements by amplified phone to a Chicago sportswriters' meeting before the actual game concerning segregation in New Orleans, and Whereas: These statements were used by Associated Press and various newspapers; and Whereas: The Chicago Daily News of Wednesday, Jan. 24, carried as the sports page headline the state of Mr. Ireland, "I shall not return," and Whereas: Such statement will serve as a device against our own recruitment programs conducted on a nationwide basis; and Whereas: The statements concerning a boycott had no basis for being made; and Whereas: The Council believes an injustice has been leveled against Loyola of New Orleans and needs an answer. Therefore, be it, Resolved: That the Student Council of Loyola university recommend to our own administration the discontinuance of intercollegiate sports activities between Loyola of New Orleans and Loyola of Chicago, and furthermore be it Resolved: That a statement of clarification shall be sent to Loyola of Chicago. (This resolution was dropped by the Council since the Very Rev. Andrew C. Smith, S.J., has already sent such a letter.) Kickott March 11 Charbonnet appointed alumni giving chairman Clayton Charbonnet, New Orleans business executive, has been named general chairman of the Annual Alumni Giving program for 1962, Frederick J. Gisevius, alumni president, announced. The campaign will get underway Sunday, March 11, with the annual kickoff dinner for class agents at 5:30 p.m. in the university cafe-f. teria. More than 350 of the 000 former students who will serve as class agents will attend. Principal speaker will be the Very Rev. Andrew C. Smith, S.J., president. A native of New Orleans, Charbonnet is a 1942 graduate, receiving his bachelor of science in economics. He was prominent in extra-curricular activities, serving as presdient of Blue Key, national honor society; the Pan-Hellenic Council and as business manager of The Maroon. In 1958 he was general chairmanchairman of the homecoming celebration and in 1959 served as president of the Alumni Association. He is the owner of the American Rent-All Company. Charbonnet said annual alumni contributions to colleges and universities have grown "by leaps and bounds" in recent years. He noted that more than $150 million is now contributed annually by former students to their alma maters. At Loyola the 1961 drive produced record figures with $42,- 264.41 in contributions from 2,338 former students. Gifts were received from 34 per cent of alumni contacted, Charbonnet said. This figure represented a jump of eight per cent over 1960. Clem H. Sehrt, New Orleans attorney, served as chairman. Alumni giving, as well as financial support from corporations, foundations and non-alumni benefactors, plays an indispensable role in the development of higher education, Charbonnet said. Players to act famous comedy "The Miser," an adaptation of Moliere's famous "slapstick" comedy with a "twist" ending, will be presented by the members of Thespians Feb. 26. Although it is usually presented in a 17th century setting, the play has been revised and will have a modern-day setting. The play revolves around a "crabby ole miser" who invades romances of his youthful son. The schedule of students to act in the play are Bert Harris, the miser; Ande Rehm, Elize, his daughter; Ben Murphy, Cleante, his son; Paul Gonzales, Valere, in love with Elize; Carla Atkins, Mariane, in love with Cleante; Linda Musmiei, Fosini, a matchmaker; Tony Enterante, Master Jacques, a coachman and cook; Jack Boudreaux, Cleante's valet; and Jerry Rault, Monsieur Anselme. Wall scenery will be used for the first time this year. (See COUNCIL, page 2) (See NSA, page 2) Hat j wjjmgm A wegrewgfehfehg

Oshodi market, located at a major crossroads in the northern part of Lagos, Nigeria, was an entrepreneurial marvel—until a raid by security forces in 2009 demolished it.
Image: Stuart Franklin Magnum Photos
In Brief
- One in seven people on the planet live in squatter communities or in shantytowns. More than half the workers of the world earn their living off the books.
- These markets and neighborhoods provide housing and jobs that governments and the formal private sector fail to.
- Governments need to work with these communities rather than neglect or suppress them.

The women maneuvered their crude canoes down narrow alleys of brackish water. They dipped their paddles lightly, gliding slowly past scrap-built houses elevated on spindly sticks that held the structures just beyond the reach of the tide. Here and there a head popped out of one of the homes to check who or what was passing. In the small harbor where the women beached their boats, the shoreline was a work in progress. People were filling the shallows, tamping down layers of trash to reclaim solid ground from the murky brown. Nearby, under a thatched-roof pavilion on one of those pounded patches stolen from the sea, a woman lit a match and put it to a pile of wood chips and sawdust at her feet. A lazy haze of smoke rose into the dusty air.
Greetings from Makoko, one of the most notorious squatter communities in one of the most notorious cities of the world: Lagos, Nigeria—a metropolis caught in a vortex between modernity and misery. With hundreds of ATMs, scores of Internet centers and millions of mobile phones, this bustling, maddening, overjammed city of between eight million and 17 million (depending on where you draw the lines and who does the counting) is fully plugged into the global grid. A hyperentrepreneurial international trading center and the commercial capital of Africa's most populous country, Lagos lures an estimated 600,000 new arrivals every year. Yet most neighborhoods, even some of the very best, have no water, no sewers and no electricity. Makoko—part on land, part hovering above the local lagoon—is one of the mega city's most deprived communities.

With Tony for a million people expected to fly this Thanksgiving you definitely won't be alone when he -- the friendly skies but there are some things that you can do to avoid all those crowds including -- an alternate airport.
Orbit senior editor -- -- -- is here with a list of the busiest airports on Thanksgiving.
Good morning thanks for being with listening to Barney tell us the busiest airports what can we expect -- -- no big surprises here's the big hub airport Chicago O'Hare.
Los Angeles international San Francisco international LaGuardia here in New York.
And Boston Logan so those are going to be where you're saying the most crowds over this peak travel days holiday weekend probably on Wednesday before the absolutely Wednesday it's going to be your busiest day flying out to and then Sunday and Monday are the two busiest days I'm coming back Monday actually used to be -- great off day that people are really getting savvy.
Tee off peak days and ascending in men they -- both pretty busy to be a little cheaper it is to fly home reflect back to New York or wherever you're going.
It not and that it -- now really can't wait till Tuesday or come back on Saturday content what about the least busy airports -- -- we looked at the the top fifty airports and niece heard -- the bottom five on this top fifty airports so we've got buffalo Niagara.
Jacksonville international and Florida Nashville international Sacramento.
In California.
And Bradley international in Hartford so.
Some great options and the reason we look at these is because really it.
Especially if you haven't -- your ticket yet you look at the alternative airport.
Really within a ninety mile radius it could be -- driving a few -- miles.
To save some cash on your -- -- but also just to have a little bit of a less hectic experience -- -- to get to the -- for instance Jacksonville you can get says -- go -- your family in Georgia are at the South Carolina or you can go down to Orlando at.
If it's gonna save you 200 bucks why not at all our might be 31 dollars today or something exactly.
All right well those -- some good points and then will prices go down for folks at home that are watching that have not yet bought their plane tickets to go home for Thanksgiving or.
To go see family for Christmas so they gonna go down any.
Well for Thanksgiving where a week out really -- fortunately prices are only going to go up -- probably few seats left on those.
More popular flights so really book your ticket now if you haven't for Thanksgiving or think about driving.
For Christmas that there's still some flexibility that the earlier you purchased the -- hard to believe Thanksgiving is next week where has this year goals.
-- and then you said the busiest -- to fly on -- Thanksgiving as Wednesday and try to avoid coming wants an -- and what about Christmas time well again Chris Christie do you have a little bit more flexibility if people are taking their vacation so we don't have the high travel volume on the happy days.
But the busiest days are going to be looking at our Saturday and Sunday.
Departures I and then return flights are busiest on the day after Christmas.

No matter how you spin it, New Year's Eve won't be the same without Dick Clark. Even in recent years, with Clark's on-screen presence diminished during the Times Square festivities, you felt his joy about being there. For Dick Clark, nothing was cooler in theentire worldthan to be in Times Square on New Year's Eve. From his warm studio, he counted down at midnight, gave his wife a cute smooch and schmoozed with Ryan Seacrest about the fabulousness of it all. He didn't let his stroke prevent him from being part of the fun. Clark died in April, but his presence will definitely be felt tonight. ABC will pay tribute to the mega-producer at 8 p.m. with a two-hour celebration of Dick Clark. It will be hosted by Fergie and Jenny McCarthy. At 10 p.m., Seacrest joins in to start the Rockin' Eve portion of the night. In New York, Carly Rae Jepsen, Neon Trees and Psy join Taylor Swift as performers. On the West Coast, Brandy, OneRepublic, Pitbull and Justin Bieber will perform. Seacrest will do the countdown honors at midnight.
"New Year's Eve With Carson Daly": Performers include Train and Cassadee Pope, the winner of "The Voice." Angela Kinsey of "The Office" will give live reports from Times Square. 10 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. NBC
"New Year's Eve Live!": Fox's broadcast is from Las Vegas and features comedian Marlon Wayans as host. There will be performances by Lifehouse, "X Factor" winner Tate Stevens and - get this - Carmen Electra. Stevens replaces "American Idol" winner Phillip Phillips, who was originally announced as a performer. 11 p.m.
"New Year's Eve Live With Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin": I'm still amazed that CNN allows Griffin and her crazy antics on its normally staid network. But her banter with Cooper - and her ability to make him squirm - creates memorable moments. 10 p.m.
"MTV's Club NYE 2013": "Jersey Shore" alum Snooki and JWOWW host the special with performances by Ke$ha, Ne-Yo and others. 11 p.m.

Matt Blackett's NAMM Musings The BadAlong with all the good and cool things about a NAMM show, innovative new products, talented musicians, and a community of manufacturers and dealers who give musicians stuff to play and writers stuff to write
Last Saturday evening, on day three of NAMM, I found myself in a crowded elevator at the Hilton with Ted Nugent standing next to me. I asked him if he was having a good time at the show, and he said, "Man, if was having any more fun I'd just explode right now and spray everyone in here with my guts."
After months and months of depression and doom and disaster, the mood was quite sunny throughout the halls of NAMM 2010. The show certainly was bustling. Even early Thursday as the show started, it was difficult winging across the floor
The mood at this year's show was decidedly upbeat, and nearly everyone I spoke with was more focused on the future than the economic challenges of 2009.
Sunday is typically a bit of a "breath day" at NAMM. The crowds are sparser and more relaxed, so you can actually get through the pathways without squeezing through a million or so "slow walkers." When your meetings are scheduled
A fun and anxious day for me, as I'm playing Muriel Anderson's All Star Guitar Night for the first time. Not as an "all star," of course, but as a little something different near the end of the show. Ol'
The NAMM show has been a blast. I've seen tons of new guitars, amp, pedals, recording gear etc., and I've also had fun hanging out with folks at Bogner, Dunlop, Egnater, Fender, Fryette, Guitar Hands, Hagstrom, Line 6, Martin, Matchless, Studio Devil, Taylor, VooDoo Lab, and many, many others.
Gotta love those 8 00 am breakfast meetings after you've been up past 2 00 am posting videos and photos for the Web site, going to dinner with manufacturers, and meeting friends and music industry types in the Marriott and
The crew is here Art Thompson, Barry Cleveland, and Matt Blackett arrived today, and it's meetings, meetings, meetings. First up on my schedule are Loud Technologies, Muse, Peavey, PRS, Blackstar, Presonus, VHT, and Fender. So far, the big thrill is
The big pre NAMM parties included product previews from Marshall, Roland, and US Music. KEYBOARD's Stephen Fortner handled Roland, as it was the same time as the Marshall bash, and I visited US Music and Marshall. At the US Music

Simmons outraised Dodd in 3Q.
970K for Simmons; 900K for Dodd. Please also note that Dodd's spokesman carefully did not mention his candidate's cash-on-hand while making excuses for Dodd's lackluster third quarter, which suggests that the lobbyist crony* is having problems on that front, too. Couple that with his ongoing Countrywide problem, and one has to wonder what the next set of polls will look like… Moe Lane PS: Rob | Read More »

Given name: Katarina
Discipline: Figure skating
Date and place of birth: 3 December 1965 in Staaken, Germany
Nationality: German
Olympic titles: 2 gold medals
Sarajevo 1984
Calgary 1988
World Championships: 4 gold medals and 2 silver medals
The first female skater since Sonja Henie to win consecutive Olympic titles, Katarina Witt knew how to combine her technical qualities with her artistic ones. Each of her programmes was an event with a theme, a story, a costume and a hairstyle (West Side Story, Robin Hood, Carmen, etc.). At the Olympic Games in 1994, although she finished only seventh, she enchanted the public with a moving tribute to Sarajevo, the city in which she won her first gold medal, which was at that time embroiled in civil war.

It's not like DA invented the separation between projects, actions and reference. The book is more wide-ranging than DA's GTD book, and is aimed at "creatives" (a term I don't particularly like, as it is has as many connotations as "makers"). The electronic system is an offshoot of Behance's paper products, which are attractive-looking. Levenger sells the paper designs in Circa format. The paper is clearly a relative of the Cornell note-taking design. I'm sure you could do GTD with either the paper or the electronic version. Or you could do something not as rigorous, which is probably where Behance's products are positioned and pitched in the marketplace. Thanks!

The nitwit NRA brainwashed gun nuts win again.
The Tennessee Legislature is loaded with them because their pockets are full with NRA money.
Meanwhile, Missouri Democrats follow Obama's lead. How will gun owners react?
Yesterday, state Representatives Rory Ellinger (D-86) and Jill Schupp (D-88) introduced House Bill 545, anti-gun legislation that would turn many law-abiding gun owners into felons. HB 545 would ban the possession, sale, transfer or manufacture of certain semi-automatic rifles and magazines that are capable of holding more than ten rounds.
HB 545 contains no grandfather clauses. Therefore, under HB 545, if you are currently in possession of the semi-automatic rifles and magazines outlined in this bill, you will have 90 days from the effective date of this legislation to surrender, destroy or remove these currently lawful items from Missouri. If you fail to do so, you could be charged with a Class C felony if this legislation is passed and enacted into law.
Compelling law-abiding citizens to surrender their firearms and magazines is unconstitutional, wrong and another failed attempt to reduce crime.
Criminals—by definition—violate laws, especially gun control laws. They will never surrender their firearms, or comply with any gun control scheme. HB 545 would only affect the lawful, while ignoring the actual problem of violent criminals who misuse firearms.
Those are your Democrats in action.
