Soledad O'Brien: Who is black in America? I am.
We always want answers. NFL linebacker Jovan Belcher, 25, shot to death the mother of his child, and then shot himself in the head in the middle of the afternoon Saturday outside the team's Kansas City practice facility. The day before, a man burst into a Wyoming college classroom, police said, and killed someone he knew, and then killed himself. Usually, such tragedies are shocking. Experts that CNN spoke with say about 1,500 murder-suicides happen in the United States every year. And even that number is questionable, they caution. There are no credible statistics on this kind of crime -- the FBI doesn't keep track, and police classify murders in different ways. This lack of certainty often amplifies the frustration people feel when loved ones are wrenched from them so violently. And it makes it even tougher to understand when the violence is wrought in public.
When a car slammed into their motorcycle, June and Ted DiStefano knew the horrific accident would change their lives forever. They didn't realize it would give them the power to help others. Both were severely injured in the hit-and-run accident. June was kept in an induced coma for a month as doctors tried to save her left leg. In the end, they had to amputate it. Ted also lost his left leg. Today, 15 years later, the DiStefanos are actors in a hostile environment training course, using their physical injury to help create a shocking, realistic simulation of a war zone for troops.
US-Dunford-Afghanistan (with art)
With little fanfare Monday, Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford was confirmed by the Senate as the newest commander for the international forces in Afghanistan, charged with overseeing the final two years of the U.S.-led war and executing the White House plan to phase out troops and leave a small number behind after 2014. Dunford, much like his confirmation, has made a career of flying under the radar, but he will be front and center as the commander of the International Security Assistance Force, replacing Gen. John Allen. He is well-known in the tight-knit Marine Corps community as a thoughtful and calm leader and has 22 months of commanding in Iraq.
Paul Sacco says searching for his missing daughter feels like something akin to bleeding out. All the hope, heartache and anxiety that go into it leave him feeling diminished. But the Colorado lawyer and amateur guitarist has managed to bottle up some of that energy, spending hundreds of hours creating what is both a tribute to Aubrey Sacco and a monument to his sorrow: a 14-song album he has published to Internet vendors.
Freedom-Project-Operation-Hope (with art)
From horror to hope: A boy's remarkable recovery from a brutal attack.
The Pacific island of Nauru, the world's smallest independent republic, is slipping away. Literally. The island is disappearing amid rising sea-levels. And is part of 43 member alliance that accuses nations like India, China and the United States of not addressing climate change with enough urgency.
Braving lions to deliver Maasai nomads' vaccines.
Along the lush sea-islands and the Atlantic coastal plains of southern East coast of America, a distinctive group of tidewater communities has stuck together throughout the centuries, preserving its African cultural heritage and carving out a lifestyle that is uniquely its own. The Gullah/Geechee people are direct descendants of West African slaves brought into the United States around the 1700s. They were forced to work in rice paddies, cotton fields and indigo plantations along the South Carolina-Georgia seaboard where the moist climate and fertile land were very similar to their African homelands.
Dangling from the top of a 20 meter mast while bouncing along the open waves would test even the most hardened sailor's stomach. If the vertigo doesn't rattle you, the mast lurching at a 45 degree angle will. Then there's the real possibility the whole boat could capsize under the strain -- plunging you deep under water with it. But for maritime photographer Kos Evans -- who pioneered the hazardous art of masthead photography and bagged some of sailing's greatest images in the process -- it's all part of the day-job.

Rutland Police say they have made an arrest in one of the smash-and-grab type thefts that have occurred recently in the city's downtown.
Police said Tuesday they charged Shawn M. Ritchie, 39, of Rutland, with unlawful mischief and petty larceny for allegedly breaking into a car parked outside the American Legion on Washington Street.
Ritchie was cited to appear in Rutland criminal court next week, police said.
Police say they have received a handful of complaints during the last week from people whose locked vehicles have been broken into downtown. Purses and electronics devices have been reported stolen.
Ritchie is charged with only one of those thefts but police say the other cases remain under investigation.MORE IN This Just InThe upcoming legislative session will be an interesting one.

Seagate, the leader in hard drives and storage solutions, today unveiled the world's first 3.5-inch hard drive featuring 1TB of storage capacity per disk platter, breaking the 1TB areal density barrier to help meet explosive worldwide demand for digital content storage in both the home and the office. Seagate's GoFlex Desk products are the first to feature the new hard drive, delivering storage capacities of up to 3TB and an areal density of 625 Gigabits per square inch, the industry's highest. Seagate is on track to ship its flagship 3.5-inch Barracuda desktop hard drive with 3TBs of storage on 3 disk platters – enough capacity to store up to 120 high-definition movies, 1,500 video games, thousands of photos or virtually countless hours of digital music – to the distribution channel in mid-2011. The drive will also be available in capacities of 2TB, 1.5TB and 1TB. "Organizations of all sizes and consumers worldwide are amassing digital content at light speed, generating immense demand for storage of digital content of every imaginable kind," said Rocky Pimentel, Seagate Executive Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Marketing. "We remain keenly focused on delivering the storage capacity, speed and manageability our customers need to thrive in an increasingly digital world." GoFlex Desk external drives are compatible with both the Windows operating system and Mac computers. Each drive includes an NTFS driver for Mac, which allows the drive to store and access files from both Windows and Mac OS X computers without reformatting. The GoFlex Desk external drive's sleek black 3.5-inch design sits either vertically or horizontally to accommodate any desktop environment.
Why not offer a 5 TB drive with 5 of those platters? What's with the run on 3-4 platter drives lately? Lemme guess, the industry has priced itself out of shipping 5 platter drives.
Finally. I've been holding out for 2 platter 2 TB drives. Let's see what WD comes up with and then I'll be replacing both my drives.... well in a perfect world anyways. If these drives turn out like others in the past few years they'll either be prone to massive amounts of noise or horrendous reliability. Let's hope seagate takes a quiet cue from their new samsung tech without the spotty smart data readings.
3072 GB / 1500 games = 2,048 GB per game. Last time I checked, the 1st DiRT was around ten times that size. So they must be making an average.
i just can say wow its kinda fast when first hdd touched 1 tera now is 3 tera. sometimes it looks too much for motherboard to handle
Whats so wow about it? That we use the same mechanical technology for more than 30 years and they are still "improving it" lol. I find it kinda sad we still dont get nice TB size SSD's with a decent price. I saw this guy in a movie once and he could store other peoples mind in his neural net !
Wake me up when they hit 2tb/platter and sell single platter drives for ~$100. Then I'll buy five or six for a nice RAID 5 or 10 or something like that. Single platter drives are sexy.
hard drives are still improving at a fantastic rate imo. good to have such clear definition between super fast read/write drives, and cheap HUGE storage drives.
I agree, I even saw this documentary about a robot from the future who came to kill some lady. And there was this computer that could think for itself and decided humans should die. Quite interesting. I'm not sure why we don't get this tech at home. I disagree, improvements have been slow in the past few years. Though this is because the market for huge multi-TB disks is not that big. Not yet anyway.
yep with kinda same technology we can push it into now 3 tera. this is what called evolution although the size is promising, if it fails the pain is kinda 'promising' too, the safest way maybe just place it on raid configuration
dosent matter who it belonged to the better density will push HDD speed up even higher just look at the performance numbers of samsungs F4 drives of the 7200rpm variety hitting 155mb/s read write speeds. doubling the density of a 1TB drive from 500gb x2 to 1000gb x1 should give a nice bump in speed id say about 15-25mb/s improvement The Spinpoint F3s sequential read writes were around 110-115. id expect upping them to single platter would be a nice 130-145 maybe higher so a short stroked drive 1tb reduced to say 700gb per drive x2 in Raid 0 would make for some damn damn nice numbers for mechanical hdds. as that raises the min read write do to cutting off the slowest part of the disk. so average should go up to 125 + the improvement from a single platter upping that to 150+ oh man, cant wait for the new drives and actual performance numbers.
Wait a second.... Aren't single platter drives slower than multiplatter drives? (considering the platters being the same size in both cases, single and multi). It makes me think that a drive with 2 x 1TB platters would perform similary to 2x drives of 1TB (single platter) in RAID 0. This is rational, since there's a kind of RAID 0 in between the platters of a multiplatter drive. internally I mean. But yeah of course improving density will improve performance but I'm not discussing that in this case...
not in general, no. the platters are linked, but the mechanics still have to read individual platters, in different spots. that slows it all down.
no, the platters do not work the same as hard drives do in a raid set up, the 1tb f3 is actually slightly slowr then the 500gb f3
Now I see what that means. I actually thought the opposite, that more platters would increase speed because the data would have been written sequencially in platter 1, platter 2, platter 3 and then platter 1, platter 2, platter 3 and so on. making lower amount if seekings for each spot as all heads are in the desired spot in that single instant. If you know what I mean (at least it this idea would work faster in sequencial readings) Now, if they have to read individual platters in different spots, we are doomed. speeds drops. Unless the heads were independent from each other, which are not.
Yeah, I understand the logic you were using, but unfortunately it just doesn't work that way Regardless, I also want single-platter drives because they're sleek and thin and sexy (and I imagine cooler and quieter)
so where is ma 5TB hard drive? they have the technology 5 platters at 1TB earch = 5TB and 5 platters are max in a 3,5" harddrive

GREENSBORO -- The jury heard two very different kinds of testimony surrounding the truth about John Edwards. One from a personal friend who the defense revealed to be a vengeful person set on exposing Edwards; and another who hoped to help Edwards come clean. In court Edwards appeared physically upset and on the verge of tears. Tim Toben cultivated a friendship with presidential candidate Edwards through his neighbor Andrew Young. Toben became a vessel for helping to hide the affair when he was called to transport mistress Rielle Hunter and the Youngs to a get-away plane. Toben and Young resented Edwards for the affair and through the defenses' exhibits, it was revealed that they wanted to market a tell-all book in an angry plot to expose Edwards. "Here's a guy who go involved for all the right reasons and then was hurt when John Edwards sort of betrayed the causes he stood for," former federal prosecutor Kieran Shanahan said. "But it really went further than that and the truth I think came out today, that he became angry. That he vested himself in helping Andrew Young to out Mr. Edwards and then he went as far as to go to the Obama campaign and provide them information." Then there was the soft-spoken former speechwriter, Wendy Button, who testified about her conversations with Edwards as they planned a public apology before the release of Young's book, "The Politician." She said this was his time to tell his story, rather than let someone else. She said Edwards wanted to take care of his child, Quinn, and publicly embrace her since he had publicly denied her. In his statement, Button said Edwards knew all along about Fred Baron, his former campaign finance director, taking care of Hunter and Quinn. "So there's some things that are very damning to the defense and there's some things that are helpful," Shanahan said. "She's still under direct examination and we still have a long way to go. But we're at a very serious part of the case. This witness has 50 pages of hand written notes. The story even as John Edwards is going to come clean and tell the truth seems to be changing by every edit the two of them worked on."

Join us on Saturday, February 23rd and Sunday, February 24th as the Calgary Public Library presents the Mind, Body, Spirit Weekend. It is a weekend full of insight, rejuvenation, and inspiration held in the John Dutton Theatre at the Central Library. Over the next four weeks we will interview four of the nine presenters. This week we have Peter Kieran, who will be presenting Transformational Coaching on Saturday, February 23rd from 3 – 4 pm. For more information on our Mind, Body, Spirit Weekend and to register please see our program page.
What is the difference between coaching, counselling, therapy and mentoring?
The difference lies in where the client finds the solutions to achieving want they want. In coaching we start with the assumption that the client is whole and has the skills, knowledge, ability and creativity to take the appropriate action. Compared to counselling, therapy or mentoring, coaching awakens the client to their own strengths and capabilities and is more transformational in its nature because of this. There is no attempt to fix the client or solve their problems for them. Rather than answering the client's questions, a coach asks the questions from a place of compassion and not knowing, allowing the client to explore their own greatness and experience new perspectives in their lives that they otherwise might never have been aware of.
At Mind, Body, and Spirit you'll be talking about transformational coaching. What are some outcomes that people can expect having worked with a coach?
Of course the specific outcomes are different for each individual however there will always be some level of increased self awareness, understanding of personal values and strengths and clarity in what they want and how to achieve their desired outcomes. Coaching usually leads to some sort of transformation in the client in the form of new perspectives on who they are, what they want and how it all fits into the bigger picture of life. Hopefully this translates for the client into a shift from a "problem solving" paradigm, to one that is more positive and generative.
If I decided to hire a life coach what would be the time commitment I may consider and why?
Typically coaching takes place over several months to a year and consists of 2 or three sessions a month. Because the client is responsible to take action on their commitments, time is needed between sessions to ensure that they have the opportunity to make changes. This also allows the coaching process to build on itself, as more is learned and new topics for conversation emerge. Sessions may be anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour and usually focus and one thing at a time to get the most benefit. As personal awareness increases and as they tap into their own individual strengths, many new and exciting possibilities often appear out of nowhere, creating endless opportunities for change for the client. Just as a triathlete might hire a coach to take them to the next level in their fitness, so too might someone hire a personal coach to take them to the next level in their personal development and overall success in their lives. We all have hidden potential within us. Hiring a coach is like giving yourself the gift of greatness. How great do you want to be?
Everyone likes to hear a success story, can you share examples of client success?
Anyone who is looking for change in their lives, clarity in who they are or what they want to do, or anyone trying to make a decision, improve a situation or how they relate to others will benefit from a coaching relationship. I recently coached a young man who was unsure what to do next in his life. He had a bad back, was overweight, and lived at home with no job. Together we found the path that led him to realize his passion and his strengths, helping him make a decision about where to work, leading him to move back out on his own, lose weight, change his relationship with his father and overall returned his confidence about who he was and what he brought to this world. I also coached a woman looking for what to do next in her career after having left a company where she was very unhappy. We tapped into her values and strengths creating a way for her to see future opportunities more clearly and she went on to become very active in her church and found employment at a new company where she is much happier than before.
What skills do you as a coach bring to the relationship?
Good Question! Each coach has their own style of communicating and their own strengths from which to draw. For me it's a combination of a lifestyle of physical fitness, years of coaching in the workplace as a Team Leader or supervisor and growing up in a family of artists, giving me an appreciation for personal performance, art, nature and living in the moment. I can see, feel and admire the greatness in others and I use that ability to encourage my clients to have confidence in themselves and their ability to achieve their goals.
Peter Kieran is certified professional coach, who enjoys working with clients to help them discover who they are and what they want to accomplish in their lives, enabling them through self awareness and vision, to achieve their personal and professional goals. His coaching company is called Your Road, Your Way and he invites you to step forward and join him on the road of discovery.

Trends for 2011
Pastels pinks, blues and mint green are back in a big way on runways this season. And it's not just for bridesmaids! Bridal dresses in pale shades are popping up everywhere and certainly make a statement from a traditional white wedding dress (think Gwen Stefani from 2002!) I find the pastels romantic and other hot romantic trend we're seeing a lot of this season is rosettes. From dress accents and accessories to shoes, purses and hair accessories, these little touches can make a big impression.
Another trend that is hot this season is Eco Weddings. From venues to dresses and everything in between, recognizing our mother nature is important to modern brides. Adele Weschler, a designer from Toronto, offers a complete line of Eco Couture dresses that offer style and elegance while using remnant fabrics and hemp dyes.
It's a great season to be planning a wedding!

View a 2,000-year-old scroll of the Ten Commandments online
Google is once again offering a glimpse into ancient history with online images of rare scrolls dating back more than 2,000 years.
Courtesy of Google, in collaboration with the Israel Antiquities Authority, the new Leon Levy Dead Sea Scrolls Digital Library is now home to detailed digitized photographs of thousands of biblical and non-biblical manuscripts. These ancient scrolls were discovered in remote caves near the Dead Sea between 1947 and 1956.
Among them, the scroll of the Ten Commandments may be one of the most fascinating. Dating back to sometime between 30 B.C. and 1 B.C., the … Read more

Over the past 10 years, Robert Keeley has watched hiscompany grow from offering a few experimental pedals intoa major effects manufacturer with products being sold inmore than 200 US stores and nearly 100 internationally. Herehe reflects on the journey, technological strides, and wherehe sees his company going in the future.
By Lindsay TuCker
Robert Keeley wants to solve your sonic problems. His business is only 10 yearsold, but in the guitar-pedal universe he'sknown as a guru at taking the most belovedeffects and making them even better. Hesays it's all the result of a serendipitousaccident—a conversation he had with hiswife one day when he was desperately try-ing to get his hands on a Ross Compressor.His inner voice of reason spoke loud andclear: "Didn't you just get a degree forbuilding those things so you wouldn't haveto spend hundreds and hundreds of dollarson vintage ones?"It was early 2001, and Keeley had recentlyearned his electrical-engineering degree fromOklahoma University. He had been hoping
to break into the amp-building industry—an industry that was already highly saturated and becoming more so every day—but instead he was teaching. He enjoyed it, but not nearly as much as his music obsession.
"Sure enough, I did find the schematic and the parts for the [Ross] pedal, and I took off and built one," Keeley says with childlike enthusiasm. "When I heard it, it was magical—I was completely stunned." In fact, hearing his own handiwork generated enough personal excitement and fervor to convince Keeley to ditch his teaching career and start Keeley Electronics. At that point, few people were doing modifications and independent effects, so the lack of competition was reassuring.

Orlando Area Fishing Report
Upcoming Events-
-Titusville Surf Fishing Workshop, Wednesday, March 6, 6-8 pm. There are several other surf workshops coming up along the Space Coast in the next two months. For more information please email Rodney Smith email@example.com
-Mosquito Lagoon Show and Tell Fishing Seminar, MINWR, March 2; On-the-Water Show and Tell Seminar, March 3
The Super Bowl was last Sunday. My favorite columnist, Gregg Easterbrook, published his last column of this football season on Tuesday. He finished with these sentiments:
"As usual, I recommend you employ the offseason to engage in spiritual growth. Take long walks. Perform volunteer work. Exercise more and eat less. Drink less soda, more tea: green tea is soothing, oolong tea may lower blood pressure. Attend worship services of any faith, bearing in mind Pascal's wager. Study philosophy and secular ethics: We spend too much time on economics and science, not enough on ethics. Read a book a month. Seriously, you can't get through a book a month? And real books: history, literary novels. Appreciate the grandeur of nature. Meditate, express gratitude, serve others. Tell the people around you that you love them. Who knows if you will get another chance?"
Amen to all that. I would add, "Go fishing. Enjoy the outdoors." I will look forward to TMQ returning in September.
MINWR Launch Complex Update- rather than clutter up this report with all the correspondence flying back and forth, please visit this link for the latest updates. At this link I have a letter you can copy.
The Turtle- Reader Mark Smith won the book with this very complete response:
"The diagnostic for the loggerhead is the presence of two claws on the front flipper. The front flipper closest to your chest appears to have just one claw. The flipper closest to the photog MAY have a second distal to the obvious one. My source book says the second claw is sometimes difficult to see.
"Since we can't count the plates on the dorsal surface, the only other diagnostic feature is the relative size of the head. This requires just an educated guess at this point since we don't have a known loggerhead/green to compare against.
"If you look at distribution and range, greens and loggerheads overlap in Fla, although the Lhead is much more common
"I guessed Lhead because its more abundant/common and also it's head just appears to be bulky, and not as sleek as a green."
Thank you Mark, nice work. I hope you enjoy the book!
My friend Ricky called. He got me all chummed up about tarpon fishing. Shoot, it's only February. I just tied a half-dozen flies. Seeing pictures like this didn't help, either...
Father Rick Voor and his friend Scott were on my mind on Monday and Tuesday. I went back to the same areas where they had gotten skunked last week. I kicked fish butt this week.
Monday my three-weight broke when I got a little heavy-handed on a redfish. It was the fifth or sixth fish of the day, all solid five and six pound fish. The fly was an old favorite, the grizzly seaducer, size 4.
Tuesday, not having learned my lesson, the other three-weight accompanied me. It accounted for at least 20 fish before I decided I was being a greedy pig and quit fishing. A couple of nice trout took a minnow pattern and I photographed myself with one with very moderate success.
Some home projects occupied me Wednesday and Thursday. Friday the weather was gorgeous if a bit windy. I launched the Mitzi by the Jolly Gator and went upriver looking for shad. Oh yes, we found them with some help from Mark Benson. They were rolling and boiling all over the river. In addition to a couple dozen shad, a couple bluegills and a suicidal largemouth fell for my flies. It was an awesome afternoon- the best shad fishing I have seen in several years.
Saturday found me and 30 or so other folks picking up trash around the Haulover Canal. A lot of litter was picked up. If you were fortunate enough to visit that place at noon you could have seen it letter free, a rare thing indeed. Kudos to all the volunteers.
In the afternoon the Mitzi again plied the waters of the St. Johns River. This time Tammy Wilson joined me. We went to the same spot as yesterday. Although not quite as good it was still good.
Tammy tossed a fly while I threw a spin rod. The way the wind was blowing it was safer that way. Creme makes these two lures that shad and other denizens of the river like bluegills and crappie are wild about. One is the Spoiler Shad, 1.5 inches long. The other is the Litl Fishie, same size. See them here http://www.cremelure.com/store/store...?Category_ID=2
And that is this week's exciting version of the Orlando Area Saltwater Fishing Report.
Life is great and I love my work!
Life is short. Go Fishing!

Adorable, Anna! They look very excited. My daughter is wild with anticipation this morning... I'm a little frightened what she'll be like after she gets a little candy in her. Have a Happy Halloween!
Like a musk stick and a mint slice! Very cute!
Penny will have a wand almost identical to the ones you made! I made it for Lily when she was one and now it's Penny's turn to be a fairy!
Oh my - what cuties!!! I agree with you, I always love putting tutus on my little girls - especially when my little one requests to wear that tutu to school - lol! Happy Halloween!
Too cute! Have a happy halloween with your little ones :)
Love them. What fun. Mine had a great time dressing up this year too. Our trick-or-treating was last night (weird).
I love them! Your younger daughter looks so much like you!
Fun wands! Little kids in costumes are the cutest things ever!
Oh how fun! I love their sweet costumes and personalized wants. Lauren did the fairy princess/ballerina thing (sort of!) with butterfly wings and didn't want to wear her little tutu OR cary her wand. Oh well! She had fun anyway :-) Hope your girls had a blast too!!!
Definitely something magical. I'm so sad, I just got rid of a lot of magical dress ups. My girls are growing up. :( p.s. I'm super happy I found your site. It is delicious with fabulousness!
My daughter is going to be a jellyfish and will be sporting the same shirt! Provided it stays warm enough to keep her coat off.;-)
I feel kind of sad that my girls are outgrowing tulle skirts.:( I never thought I'd feel that way during the days when we had to wear a tu-tu to Target and every other waking (and sleeping) moment. They are precious.
Just too precious!!! Such a fun time for the little ones
Anna, Your girls are just precious!
So, so cute Anna! Enjoy every minute!
So fun! My girls were also fairy princesses. Gotta love girly girls.
They turned out great! And I love the trick-or-treating bags too :)
oooo, scrumptious!! I have 3 girls, and somehow this year I managed to end up without a fairy, princess or even a ballerina(??). Oh well, there's always next year! xxx


text: Home Culture Where Art Stars Were the Rock Stars Celebs such as Diddy and talents including Kehinde Wiley made Art Basel a hip event in Miami Beach. By: Julie Walker Posted: Dec. 10 2012 4:51 PM 0 Diddy and Isabelle Bscher (Mike Coppola/Getty Images Entertainment); Kehinde Wiley (Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images) (The Root) -- Fiscal cliff or not, collectors at this year's Art Basel Miami Beach -- which concluded on Dec. 9 -- snapped up artwork like bargain hunters at a sample sale. In the early hours of the VIP opening on Dec. 5, Sean "P. Diddy" Combs expanded his art collection with a $15,000 piece by Brett Murray titled Manifesto -- a wall sculpture that reads "Promises Promises Promises." Murray, an artist from Cape Town, South Africa, had garnered attention earlier this year for The Spear, a painting that depicted the country's president, Jacob Zuma, posed like Lenin but with his fly open. But when Combs -- who also reportedly picked up a much-coveted Ivan Navarro sculpture at Paul Kasmin's Gallery -- made his statement-piece purchase, it had a different kind of head-turning effect. "P. Diddy walked in today and said, 'Right, I get it; I want to get it,' and that caused quite an art stir," Neil Dundas from the Goodman Gallery told The Root. One artist who wished Diddy had bought his work Tell_Raw 91, which is an ode to Big Daddy Kane, is Kamau Amu Patton. He ran after the rap impresario's car, to no avail. The piece showed at satellite art fair NADA, or the New Art Dealers Alliance, through the James Fuentes Gallery. The artist, who was booked to deejay an art party during the week, said, "Kane resonates with me." In fact, there were roughly two dozen satellite fairs surrounding Art Basel, which was held at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Many of the artists were treated like rock stars. It was common to see installation artist Theaster Gates, visual artist Mickalene Thomas, painter Kehinde Wiley and others surrounded by fans. LaToya Ruby Frazier, who displayed her photographs at this, her first Art Basel show, dressed the part in a sequined mini with major heels. "Sometimes it doesn't seem so real," said Frazier, who has a show at the Brooklyn Museum of Art and the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston. For artist Adam Pendleton, who showed with the Pace Gallery, Art Basel was not a new experience, but it was an opportunity for him to get even more exposure. He was a featured speaker during Art Basel Conversations. "I hope it's an opportunity for people to learn more about my work," said Pendleton, who also told The Root that he noticed how black participation had grown over the years. "The more voices, the better." While artists are the new celebrities at the fairs, there was no lack of star power in attendance, either. Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Kanye West and Will Smith, just to name a few, made the scene. Rapper Rick Ross bought a photograph titled Love Is the Drug by Richard Mosse from Jack Shainman's Gallery. Ross even Instagrammed a photo in front of the work and wrote, "Just purchased my 1st piece from Art Basel." In addition, Pharrell Williams spoke at Design Miami. With the spotlight on him literally, Williams said that he "felt like a rotisserie chicken." Later, at a party, he told The Root, "The unity in the name of art, fashion and design is a beautiful thing." That unity was demonstrated on Friday night at Danny and Russell Simmons' party for their collaboration with Bombay Sapphire's Artisan Series. This year Rush Arts Gallery -- which is owned and operated by the Simmons brothers -- showed at the Fountain Art Fair, while the Bombay Sapphire Artisan Series showed at the Scope Art Fair. Rush has been participating in Art Basel Week in one form or another since the fair started 11 years ago. "We want to be part of the national conversation, not just the artists we show but the gallery itself," Danny Simmons told The Root. "Kehinde, Mickalene, so many young artists came through Rush and then went on to the Studio Museum [in Harlem] and out into the world. It's my vision that people all over the world know about Rush and its mission. So being a part of Basel does that." However, it's his role as an artist that he cherishes even more. This year he made his first short art film for the Artisan Series with four other artists, including the actress Persia White. Someone else jumping into the Miami show scene was June Kelly. For the first time in her 25-year career as a black gallerist in New York's SoHo neighborhood, she took a booth at the satellite fair Art Miami. Kelly brought work by Chris Ofili, as well as lesser-known artists including Philemona Williamson. "The number of people that have come by and expressed interest in the work, looked at the booth, thought it was fabulous what we have, and we are different ... a lot of people don't know the names, and I feel good about that," Kelly told The Root. Chicago gallerist Rhona Hoffman, who has been showing black artists since 1978, when she mounted a show with Charles Gaines, was featuring three other black artists: Derrick Adams, Xaviera Simmons and Kehinde Wiley.

As everyone who flies missions knows, FSX has brought a multitude for situations that are intriguing, educational and present some new aspects about flying that could never be discovered by just experiences in the real world. For example even seasoned flat-lander pilots can learn from flying in the mountains, a soar plane, a helicopter, and much more.
From the simplicity of fling the Trike, to more challenging situations in soaring, and even on to the more complexities of flying helicopters in windy conditions, just as some for incidences.
Also, if you enjoy fling missions you've probably discovered that even when many of the missions are completed and the success window pops up, most missions can be continued and more discoveries can be made.
At first, I for one flew most of the missions just to complete them. Once I completed all but three for four, I've been flying them to completion and then go exploring from there. It's like reconditioning an old automobile, or rediscovering something that was fun at first, but you've long forgotten. Also, as you mission enthusiasts probably know, there's more dialog left from the co-pilot. It's pretty cool.
Here's my latest dilemma: The Hawaiian Checkout takes you from Molokai airport to Hanna in Maui. When you land at Hanna you get the success window, however, if you notice the flight plan is still active. Here's my problem as it stands now. After taking off from Hanna, the next way point is Molokai cliff 1718'.When I get there, there's nothing to do. I just keep buzzing Molokai cliff, and can't seem to find the solution. I've checked here by searching in the message boards and have come up with zero.
I have some questions that might bring some more renewed interest by others:
1. Has anyone been here and done the Hawaiian Checkout mission and continued on?
(PS: If you have, you don't need to tell me the solution, I'd just be content knowing there is one).
2. Has anyone else discovered some very interesting things when continuing after the missions?
3. What sort of things have you discovered from continuing after the mission was completed?
Perhaps we don't even want to say what we've discovered when continuing missions, because this very thread could intrigue others to fly them again and make new discoveries for themselves.
As example, the very first mission, is a simple takeoff and landing. There's more to it if you continue on.
That's all I'm saying.
Have fun

Special attachment plate gives Connecticut contractor power, reach and versatility
ANSONIA, Conn. - An efficient Volvo hydraulic quick coupler and a bit of jobsite ingenuity allowed a Connecticut contractor to finish a complicated utility job in a marshy area with a single Volvo EC240BLC excavator that did the job of three pieces of equipment.
And as Complete Construction Co., Inc's Tony Teixeira points out, using just one machine to do the job had a positive impact on the bottom line.
"We were able to do the whole project using just the Volvo excavator," he said. "When you don't have to use three different pieces of equipment and three different operators, that saves you time and - most importantly - money."
The Ansonia-based utility contractor was brought in to replace 600 feet of ductile iron pipe for a sanitary sewer project in nearby Fairfield, a seaside Connecticut town located on the coast of Long Island Sound, north of Long Island, N.Y.
Because the ground conditions in the project area were wet and with a seemingly deep bottom area, the municipal contract called for Complete Construction to drive H-beam piles as deep as 25 feet at 9-foot increments to support and keep the sanitary sewer pipe in place.
Though this was the type of job that typically would have required a crane, Teixeira said he was convinced the firm could get the job done for lower cost and more efficiently with its Volvo EC240BLC excavator.
"It was either that or we would have had to bring a crane in for this job," he said. "We don't have a crane, nor have much use for one, but that Volvo excavator is a tool that we use everyday."
So, Complete Construction technicians went to work and added a special attachment plate that extended the reach of the excavator, allowing the firm to drive the H-beam piles using a vibratory hammer attached to the Volvo S2 hydraulic quick coupler.
The EC240BLC could handle Hbeams at lengths up to 25-feet. However, once the project began, Teixeira said, his crews found that some of the piles had to be driven much deeper. In some cases, piles went down as far as 60 feet before hitting bedrock.
Again, rather than bringing in a crane to handle the longer sections of piling, Teixeira said Complete Construction decided it was more cost and time efficient to drive the 25 foot pilings with the Volvo excavator and then weld extensions.
"It was far less expensive to drive with the Volvo and then weld the 25-foot sections than it would have been for us to bring in a crane," he said.
Once the pilings were driven to refusal on the Fairfield project, they were cut off about a foot above the bottom of the trench. Then, caps were poured to encase the piles and reinforce the concrete support beam base to support the new sanitary line. Teixeira said his firm used custom designed pre-cast concrete beams and cradles, placing them with the 24-ton EC240BLC.
"That enabled us to increase production by 60 percent and minimized 'hole-time' for our guys on the job," he said.
According to Teixeira, the configuration of Volvo's hydraulic quick coupler puts Volvo excavators a step ahead of its competition.
"We love the versatility of the Volvo," he said of the EC240BLC, which Complete Construction purchased from Tyler Equipment Corp. in Prospect, Conn. "We can take the hammer off and attach the bucket very quickly."
That versatility, resulting from the quick and efficient exchange of attachments, is attributed to Volvo's exclusive S2 hydraulic quick coupler.
Complete Construction foreman Mike Teixeira said the ability to quickly switch attachments is an advantage on the jobsite.
"The Volvo coupler and auxiliary hydraulics allow us more maneuverability of the pile and when we need to dig, we just uncouple the hammer and couple to the bucket," he said.
"It's very efficient. The operator simply sets the hydraulic flow from the cab, which allows him to work with the attachment to optimum capacity."
Tony Teixeira noted that unlike many competitive excavators that Complete Construction has operated, Volvo's hydraulic quick coupler requires no manual pin removal. "We just had to attach the hoses," he said.
Without the Volvo hydraulic quick coupler, Teixeira said, the pipe installation job would have required two excavators: one to hammer the piles and a second to excavate.
He also gives credit to Volvo's auxiliary hydraulic valve, which is standard on B-Series excavators.
"Nobody can believe that we did that job in Fairfield with a single Volvo excavator," he said. "It was really Volvo's bidirectional-flow hydraulics that gave us the power and flexibility we needed."
Volvo's auxiliary hydraulic valve provides full power to a second independent hydraulic circuit. Two axial piston variable displacement pumps enhance Volvo B-Series hydraulic performance, resulting in powerful digging forces, high swing torque and fast cycle times.
Teixeira said Complete Construction has also used the special attachment plate with its 36-ton EC360B excavator. "With the Volvo auxiliary hydraulic system, we can easily set the flow to match the requirements of the attachment we want to use on our EC360B," he said.

From the President
By Beth MacDonald:
As the incoming President, I would like to thank the previous Board for all their work last year. I would also like to welcome the new board members, Lori, Monica, Kim, Debbie and Karen. I am looking forward to working with you this year, to help Swansea grow.
Swansea has some challenges to face in the coming year, some of those being; attracting new members, filling all our classes and being financially stable. Having been a member for approximately 25 years, I have seen Swansea go through problems and come through them stronger. I am confident that with the support of the membership we will come through these challenges with flying colours.
To solve some of these challenges our focus will be on updating the Swansea website to make it user friendly and advertising. Swansea will be advertising classes on Kijiji and on Craig's List. These are free and it is a perfect opportunity to advertise our classes, when the majority of people look on the internet to find things.
Swansea is a member oriented club, which in my mind means without members who are willing to help somewhere in Swansea, we will not have a club. This club was formed in 1974 and I want to see it continue to operate for many more years. I live 1 1/2 hours east of where Swansea operates but I am President of the club and Chief Ring Steward for the Trial which means that I will be travelling into Toronto many times to do things for the club. There are members that I know well and some that I do not. I would like to see and meet all our members out at classes, the trial or at meetings where you can volunteer to help or just come out to meet and socialise with other members of the club.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the General Meeting on March 8th.

An early, first look at Windows 8 (hands-on)
Not unlike an artfully created but tiny-portioned appetizer leading into a flavorful and filling main course that remains stuck in the kitchen, my first hands-on experience with Windows 8 left me eager for what was coming but disappointed with what was set in front of me.
Microsoft lent out Windows 8 tablets to attendees at the end of the Build conference preview yesterday, surprisingly running an earlier version of the in-development operating system than the one that had been demonstrated as functional earlier in the day.
The operating system represents a major change for the company and its fans, as … Read more

In 2011, the Steering Committee of Government of Manipur State has agreed to implement the water policy for Loktak Lake. Our South Asia team developed this more balanced water allocation policy over the past three years, in consultation with hydropower producing company, state government agencies, NGOs / CSOs, fishers and agriculture farmers.
Loktak Lake is the largest freswater lake in India, located at an alittude of 768.5m, and is also called the 'floating lake' due to its floating vegetation. It is located near Moirang in Manipur state, in north of India. Some 100,000 people live around the lake in some 55 rural and urban hamlets.
Loktak Lake is the only location where the globally endangered deer species, Cervus eldi eldi or the Manipur Brow-antlered Deer, is found. Other biodiversity include migratory fish species from the Chindwin-Irrawady river system. This initiative is a strategic shift from hydropower dominated water allocation system, which had led to deterioration of species habitat and dimunition of livelihoods of dependant communities.
Loktak Lake is registered in the Montreaux Record for changes in ecological character due to unsustainable water use for hydropower which has affected the habitat of the Manipur Brow-antlered Deer (or Eld's deer -Rucervus eldi eldi). The Montreux Record is an international list of wetlands , maintained by Ramsar Convention, of the sites going or likely to undergo changes in ecological character and requiring priority attention by their national government.

Supporting women's advancement through local businessesCamlah El Hawajra, assistant chef at Hura Community Kitchen Camlah El Hawajra, a Bedouin woman from Israel's Negev, was having a hard time. After having six children, she finished high school and went on to complete courses in computers, cooking, and running a home day care, as well as volunteering in the community's well-baby clinics. But she was not able to find work. A community kitchen is a local, sustainable business that provides meals for school lunch programs, thus leveraging a government program to create jobs and benefit the local economy. It is an elegant solution to three social challenges: food security (and within this promotion of nutritious food); local economic development – especially in disadvantaged areas; and the creation of jobs open to all. SHATIL Community Organizer Shirley Karavani explains that community kitchens can have a positive effect on a community at many levels. "It enables public money to be used in a smarter way," she says. |

So we're gonna move forward to Los Angeles now.
And talk about some movies and it's Friday.
It's movie time you know what that means -- -- -- use your editor in chief of rotten tomatoes dot com.
I you can follow mad at match city and at rotten tomatoes on twit -- And we want to talk about the final ratings to -- man.
Was some certified freshness on your tomato meter so we've got a full screen want to put up and show our viewers.
About what is happening in the movie world.
OK and then we're going to skip -- scramble we're just gonna introduce you and say Mac.
What is -- here we go the certified freshness -- -- opening the weekend.
The tomato meter create -- we're talking about Jack creature this is forty and big guilt trip tell us about these movies.
Well Jack creature is the latest with Tom Cruise and you know talkers.
For all of the stuff that happens in his life that adds up to the tabloids you put him in the right movie.
You remember that there is a reason he is a movie star.
Jack creature is one of those reasons.
This movie he plays a guy.
Who is and former military cop who kind of lives off the grid so to speak.
Comes in because somebody thinks he.
Has been wrongly accused of Jack creature comes -- trying to get his -- hands off.
-- and it's a it's an action movie and Tom Cruise is pretty great to add -- the critics mostly like it.
It's in the low sixties on the tomato meter which is fresh it's not a ringing endorsement but.
You can't really deny the Tom Cruise is great here -- really carries a movie that otherwise would probably end up.
Relatively for got a ball from you know with anyone else Daria now I should warn people.
This movie.
You know for people that are that are still really sensitive about the the events that happened last Friday the terrible events that happen in Connecticut.
This movie starts off with he's shooting it was too late for anyone to actually change beginning this week.
When he starts off with -- a kind of a person shooting random people so be aware of that going into it but you know the critics mostly like at 62% on the tomato meter.
Does this movie not that he was doing when he started having troubles with Katie Holmes.
As this this is -- I know he.
He might have bad that this.
You know the timing would be right that he would be off shooting about that -- You know it it's probably you know likely would have been something that they were shooting earlier this -- so well at that point you know you figure.
You know W figure that you know like whether I mean not to armchair quarterback somebody's relationship but at that point you know as they're breaking up things opposed -- going south before that anyway right -- Right I just remember seeing some stills of him on set.
When they were talking about his latest movie so I guess this is probably it.
All right so we also -- where we have a some funny movies to talk about this is forty where does not stack up because this is -- this is a follow up movie sort of -- Yes this is as sequel of sorts to knocked up if you're -- knocked up and although it was about Seth -- character and you know his experience becoming -- -- the father with Catherine cargo.
There was a subs there was kind of a second story -- about this married couple.
Played by -- -- and Paul Rudd and this movie this is forty is focused on that married couple.
I Leslie Mann plays the wife of a Paul run as the husband.
Was again who's married to the director John -- -- tower and there are real life kids play.
The couple's daughters in this -- so it's definitely a family affair I thought this movie was really funny.
But it goes on a little long it's two hours and almost twenty minutes long which is really long for a comedy.
And the critics are kind of a problem -- -- -- really split of the tomato meter only about 52%.
What what are the things that I you know the way to explain that how that manifests itself is that you get two point.
Probably partly through the movie where you think OK well you know about a hour and half -- this is probably the start -- upstairs and then it goes on for another forty minutes.
Now those scenes are funny but it.
It's just come along and and I think that the biggest complaint here.
Okay what I have I have to ask you just for one line on the guilt trip because we've been putting it up and -- want to get to what's coming out next week.
-- their big -- just real quick what is the guilt trip with Barbara Streisand and Seth -- life.
And the critics about wild about it 37% of its -- they say it's not really as funny as it should be.
And kind of a disappointment unfortunately.
How -- OK we'll -- next week there are a couple of really big films talk about we wanna ask you about those as well.
-- jingle and change is probably the big one that's you know Tarantino's latest.
I really liked this movie and the critics are really liking it too it's 95% of the tomato -- certified fresh.
It's it's got all of the elements that you'd expect out of a Tarantino felt that dialogue is great he's got really good casting great performances from.
Jamie fox -- Christoph Waltz and probably some of the best performances we've seen of a long time from -- and art from Leonardo DiCaprio and Sam Jackson's.
This movie I should -- people this is another one that gets extremely.
Violent at -- at the end of the movie.
But I thought it was a really solid film and you know is.
You know as much as it's kind of adventure movie has some funny moments.
The last half of the -- film really has some unflinching look -- slavery that you wouldn't necessarily expect out of me that Tarantino.
And -- is so many people are talking about this at -- I walked to Times Square today.
On the saw the billboards and this is a much anticipated movie coming out of musical right.
Of sorts.
Yes this is this is based on the Broadway is -- very popular Broadway Show.
-- people I think that if you are looking forward to this if you're a fan of the musical you're probably really gonna like this.
I went into this not really excited about it the first half of it.
Try to convince me in spite of myself I think the performances from Hugh Jackman and -- Hathaway are really great.
I don't know the Russell Crowe is necessarily in their league as a singer.
But the first half the movie's fantastic the second one got a little tedious for me.
But as I said if you're huge fan of this musicals very true to that and I think you're gonna have a great time at the critics mostly like it's in the -- -- in the low seventies last I looked on the perimeter.
So -- -- pretty well not you know not overwhelming endorsement but.
You know -- if you're a fan you're gonna have a good time here.
And everybody does their -- singing right.
Yes everybody does their -- -- while the difference here is that.
They they did something that they hadn't done for decades which is they recorded these actors singing.
While they were onset typically what happens is as the singing gets -- -- later.
But the -- recorded on set so there's an imperfection to it actually really adds to the performances that makes the much more -- Well okay.
Very good so we want to look for all of this of course on the tomato meter.
All these films and of course a lot more on your website and we want to put it up right now so people can.
Bookmark it and put it in there.
And a computer so we've got Delhi Delhi -- -- rotten tomatoes dot com we can follow you Matt actually editor in chief rotten tomatoes.
At Mac TV and at rotten tomatoes on Twitter thank you as always.
Good to know what we're going into the weekend what we can anticipate look forward to in the weeks to come.
I'll look forward to talking to you and the new year to find out what else is come on our way.
All right -- -- had a Merry Christmas thank you very much into Matt good to see.

Today's topic is on perfectionism. I'm sure if you're anything like me, you too, have fallen into the trap of waiting to do something because you wanted everything to be perfect. Or because you wanted the timing to be better.
The truth is you may have been delaying your own success. Waiting can be one of the factors that stops you from having what you want, and creating the momentum that's necessary for success.
Check out the video below now on how be the best you each and every day. You'll know what to do to get rid of that nagging self-doubt.
What to Remember:
Though it might not be perfect, it is the best you in that moment.
Perfectionism that's important to reach is inside. It's reaching new levels within yourself every day.
If you want to put out something that you feel is only a "2″, or the timing isn't exactly as you would have hoped. Go ahead and do it anyway. Put something out there. Then seek out support. Friends, family, resources, coaching…there are plenty of people waiting to support you. If you've been feeling fearful check out this blog post. Read it here.
Truth is: done is better than perfect any day.
Today's Tweetable: Truth: Perfectionism that's important 2 reach is inside. It's reaching new levels w/in urself every day Watch this! http://bit.ly/1cnRZvo @LaurinSeiden

Late last year it announced the closing of nearly 500 post offices and now nearly 2,000 more could be lost.

why will they want to sell DLC chars appart of the game, that DLC wasnt incluyed in the original game or what?Im ok with the customization pack be DLC but i dont undesrtand the other DLC
Weeeeeeeeeell if the game has in-game currency which you can use to buy the DLC content then I personally think that's OK. Would make the DLC mentioned in the announcement 'quick unlocks'.Although all things considered, that's not a bad 'total' price for a non-disc release game.
None of the characters are DLC, nor will there be any DLC characters either. All 20 characters in game are there.Only the customisation packs are DLC right now, which aren't included with the game, so hopefully there won't be any "DLC on disc" arguments.And £10/$15 for the game is a steal. That's cheaper than the UMvC3 complete costume pack. And a whole lot better.The game has some items included with it, but the ones included in the DLC are proper DLC, so you can't unlock them. If you don't have them, and your opponent is using them, you won't see those items on your screen.
...but I will still see my opponent's character customized with the (DLC) items I don't have right? In that case wouldn't their data still be on my HDD?
No. As I said earlier, there are some items included with the game, but not all of them. If they're using the default items, you'll see them as they're on the HDD. If however they were to only download Kage's extra items and use them, and you were to only download Goh's and use them, then they wouldn't see your Goh customisation, and you wouldn't see their Kage one.
so you have to download the compatibility pack or something like that i suppose?
Nope. No compatibility pack. You'll just see the blank costume that they're using (be it A, B, C, D, E or S) with whatever available items you may have.
...and how exactly do you know of this? That sounds like some inside intel...
I wonder how many Shenmue characters I'll be able to (loosely) replicate
