Sometimes referred to as "the law of low expectations" I think Murphy's law was invented for kids. After all, "if it can go wrong, it will go wrong" pretty much defines the last 10 years of my life. I jest, but only a little. Here is how Murphy's law works in my house:
1. The Law of the Grocery Cart: When your child is a toddler they will thrash and scream to get out of the cart but you can't let them or it'll be a Code Adam in about two minutes. But then as soon as they're in grade school and capable of walking responsibly, all they'll do is hang all over the cart.
2. The Law of the White Suit/Dress: Just like you are guaranteed to get your period the day you put on your new white linen pants, the second that little white dress makes an appearance, someone will hand your kid grape Fanta.
3. The Law of the Diaper Blowout: The noise your infant's bowel movements produce is inversely proportional to how quiet the surrounding environment is. The worst blowout my son ever had was in the middle of the prayer and meditation portion of our church service.
4. The Law of the Cell Phone: You may put your phone up 364 days of the year but that one time you leave it on the coffee table it will be on, unlocked and dialing China before you even know it's missing.
5. The Law of Confession: The same child who will answer all your questions with "I don't know" will suddenly open up to his preschool teacher, the neighbor and the mall Santa Claus about the time you farted at playgroup and blamed him.
6. The Law of Dirty Underwear: Used undies will be shoved under the bed because putting them in the laundry basket is too much work. Clean undies, however, will be left in the laundry basket because putting them away is too much work. Thereby starting a never ending cycle of the dirty ones getting dirtier and the clean ones getting cleaner.
7. The Law of Vomit: Children are anathema to puking alone and so the sicker they are, the more they will (understandably) want to snuggle with you. Unfortunately this makes you the de facto barf receptacle. Also, kids are incapable of getting the flu during the day. The first puke must happen between midnight and 3 a.m. waking you out of a dead sleep.
8. The Law of Holiday Gifts: Your child will only want what is in her sister's package, even if it's underwear.
How does Murphy's Law operate with your kids? Do you have any to add to my list?

Jammer's Review
Star Trek: The Original Series
"The Lights of Zetar"
Air date: 1/31/1969
Written by Jeremy Tarcher and Shari Lewis
Directed by Herb Kenwith
Review by Jamahl Epsicokhan
Lt. Mira Romaine (Jan Shutan), whom Scotty has fallen for, takes an important role when she is somehow connected with the bizarre non-corporeal entities called the Zetarians, who were responsible for deaths on a Federation outpost. Romaine suddenly begins having visions of the future, including one in which Scotty is dead.
While "Lights" is not an incredibly insulting episode, it is surprisingly devoid of substance. Really, there's not much that happens in the story. The lights appear, cause strange visions and take control of Romaine's body, and are destroyed when Kirk puts Romaine in a high-pressure chamber to expel them from her body.
Much of the episode consists of lackluster scenes where the crew attempts to determine the nature of the Zetarians and their hold over Romaine, and a few scenes analyzing Romaine herself as a crew member having trouble adjusting her attitudes to her new assignment. There's simply not much here worthy of mention for good or ill (though the inability for an understanding to be reached between humanity and the Zetarians is perhaps a telling sign of the decline of the series' idealism). Overall, a tolerable but fairly pointless episode.

Next episode: Requiem for Methuselah

For that matter, wouldn't it have been cool to see *Sulu* think his way out of the trap in "The Mark of Gideon"?
Although Trek fanfic had been printed since 1967, this story is, in a way, the first to become canonical. Even has a classic Mary Sue!
On a different note, I found it kind of annoying that they kept referring to Mira as "the girl". Seems unnecessarily patronizing, especially given that the actress who portrays her is closer to 30 than to a more obviously youthful age.

A divorce takes an emotional toll on husband, wife and children. Kids thrive on stability and comfort. Children may feel that they'd rather be with their mother and each other, rather than with the father. Or, they may feel that the mother was abusive, and the father is a good parent. Courts in the Buckeye State use Ohio's Child Custody and Visitation Statute (Section §3109.04). The information here is a summary based on this statute (see Resources).
Ohio Child Visitation Laws
The Ohio Visitation Law allows for the parent that doesn't have custody of the kids to be able to visit them. The court decides what time the visitation occurs, what frequency it happens and under what conditions the visitation can happen. Ideally, the law strives for the parent not living with the child to be able to visit the child as often as possible. If visitation doesn't benefit the children, the court would prohibit the non-resident parent from visiting.
Relationship and Scheduling
The court considers how well the children interacted with the other members of the family. It also considers relationships; for example, if the child was a stepchild, the court might not grant visitation rights. The court also considers the home location for each parent and how far those homes are from each other. Both parent's employment schedules are matched to the children's school schedules to find out who will have more time for the kids.
Child's Welfare
The child's age is considered as well as the home the child feels more comfortable living in. Another factor that any court in Ohio will consider is how much time the child will be able to spend with brothers and sisters. The court will put heavy emphasis on the child's wishes.
Parent's Background
The Ohio court will check both parents' criminal background to see if they entered a guilty plea or were convicted for abuse or neglect. If one of the parents was previously divorced and had custody of the kids, the court will look at whether they respected the court's decision or not. The court will also look at both parent's plans and see if either one of them intends to leave Ohio.
Visitation Rights in Conjunction with the Overall Divorce
Even if a parent has visitation rights, that parent doesn't always have to exercise it. If the parent living with the child refuses the other parent's rights to visit the child, then the court could hold them in contempt of court. The non-resident parent can't withhold spousal or child support funding if the resident parent refuses visitation.
Changing a Visitation Order
Sometimes, the circumstances between one or both of the parents changes. A child may outgrow his mother and may need the father's stronger hand and guidance. The mother's job responsibility could have increased and she needs the father to spend more time with the children to cover her absences. If both parents could show the court that conditions have changed and that it's in the child's best interest for visitation to increase, the Ohio court could change the visitation order.

UPDATE 8/13/12 @ 1:45 p.m.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Two men, known as hard-core wrestling fans, face jail time after police say they practiced their moves on a toddler.
Andrew Young and James Miller were set to go on trial Monday, but instead pleaded guilty to a much lesser charge. During a hearing, Young and Miller pleaded guilty to two counts of battery, which is a misdemeanor. Two other charges against the pair were dropped.
They face up to two years in jail -- one year for each count.
The men were arrested in 2010 after police say they were practicing wrestling moves on a two-year-old girl. The girl's mother took her to the hospital the next day, where doctors discovered bruises and a fractured leg.
Miller and Young are scheduled for sentencing in October.
Keep clicking on WSAZ.com for the latest information.
The 2-year-old girl is still in the hospital.
The men were planning on going to the pro-wrestling show in Charleston on Friday. Instead they were picked up by police.
"He wasn't very happy," South Charleston Police Detective A.R. Gordon says. "I guess he was looking forward to this wrestling event that was going to be here tonight. That's probably not going to happen at this point."
Police have arrested Andrew Young and James Miller and charged each of them with child neglect creating the risk of injury, which is a felony.
Young wasn't shy when we asked him questions, playing it up for the camera.
"Love you maw maw, I'm famous!" Young yelled into the camera.
He says he was just playing with the little girl.
"I choke slammed her," Young says. "But I didn't hurt her. She didn't cry after I did it."
"It was playing around," Miller says. "It's stuff I've done forever."
Miller and Young were at a friends apartment in South Charleston, wrestling with the little girl earlier this week. The toddler's mom took her to the hospital the next day. Doctors immediately called police because police say the injuries were inconsistent with what the mother told doctors.
"Apparently they're both huge wrestling fans and they even claim the 2-year-old was a fan and enjoyed doing these things with them," Gordon says. "But obviously, that can't happen if someone is going to be injured in the way she was injured, especially a 2-year-old."
Miller and Young were talking about posting bond in time to see themselves on TV as they awaited their arraignment. However, their demeanors quickly changed after Magistrate Pete Lopez set their bond at $100,000 cash or property.
The mother also may be charged because she was home when the toddler was injured.

Inspections, Compliance, Enforcement, and Criminal Investigations
Sampson Regional Medical Center 25-Jun-01
Public Health Service
Food and Drug Administration
Atlanta District Office
60 Eighth Street, N.E.
Atlanta, Georgia 30309
June 25, 2001
Inspection ID: 1349650007
Jerry Hesketh
Radiology Manager
Sampson Regional Medical Center
607 Seaman Street
Clinton, NC 28328
Dear Mr. Hesketh:
Your facility was inspected on 6/12/01 by a representative of the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources (DENR), Division of Radiation Protection, acting on behalf of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) . This inspection revealed that your facility failed to comply with certain Quality Standards for Mammography as specified in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) , Part 900.12, as follows:
Repeat Level 2 Non-Compliance:
1. your facility has not specified adequate written procedures for collecting and resolving consumer complaints or did not follow them when required.
Level 2 Non-Compliance:
2. The phantom image score (using an FDA-approved mammography phantom) is at least 3 fibers but is less than 4 fibers for unit #2 [redacted] located in room #2.
3. The phantom QC is not adequate for unit #2, [redacted] because the image was not taken at a clinical setting.
The specific deficiencies noted above appeared on your MQSA Facility Inspection Report which was issued to your facility following the close of the inspection. Item #1 also cited in was the previous inspection of your facility.
Because the above deficiencies may be symptomatic of serious underlying problems that could compromise the quality of mammography at your facility, they represent serious violation of the law which may result in FDA taking further regulatory action without notice to you. If you fail to promptly correct these deficiencies, FDA may, without further action notice, initiate regulatory. under MQSA, FDA may:
- impose civil money penalties on a facility of up to $10,000 for each failure to substantially comply with, or each day of failure to substantially comply with, the Standards.
- suspend or revoke a facility?s FDA certificate for failure to comply with the Standards.
- seek an injunction in federal court to prohibit any mammography activity that constitutes a serious risk to human health.
It is your responsibility to ensure adherence to each requirement the Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992 (MQSA) and FDA?s regulations. You are responsible for investigating and determining the causes of the deficiencies that the inspection identifies and promptly initiating permanent corrective actions.
Please note that FDA regulations do not preclude a State from enforcing its own State mammography laws and regulations. In some cases, these requirements may be more stringent than FDA?s. When you plan your corrective action(s), therefore, YOU should consider the more stringent State requirements, if any.
Within 15 working days after receiving this letter, you should notify the FDA in writing of:
- specific steps you have taken to correct all of the violations noted in this letter;
- each step your facility is taking to prevent the recurrence of similar violations;
- equipment settings (including technique factors), raw test data, and calculated final results, where appropriate; and
- sample records that demonstrate proper record-keeping procedures, if the non-compliances that were found relate to quality control or other records. (Note: Patient names or identification should be deleted from any copies submitted.)
If your facility is unable to complete the corrective action within 15 working days, you should state the reason for the delay and the time within which corrections will be completed. Please send the original copy of your response to:Serene A. Kimel, Compliance Officer
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
60 8th St., NE Atlanta, GA 30309
With a copy to:North Carolina DENR
Division of Radiation Protection

Raleigh, NC 27609-7221
andThomas Clarida

5701 Executive Center Drive, Suite 104
Charlotte, NC 28212
(NOTE : If phantom image is required for corrective action, please submit original to North Carolina DENR, Division of Radiation Protection. )
Finally, you should understand that there are many FDA requirements pertaining to mammography. This letter pertains only to findings of your inspection and does not necessarily address other obligations you have under the law. You may obtain general information about all of FDA ? S requirements for mammography facilities by contacting the Mammography Quality Assurance Program, Food and Drug Administration, P.O. Box 6057, Columbia, MD 21045-6057 (1-800-838-7715) or through the Internet at http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/mammography/ index.html.
You may choose to address both FDA and state requirements in your response. If you have any questions regarding this letter or how to ensure you are meeting MQSA standards, please call Thomas Clarida at 704-344-6116.

I drink some control, keep it in my poncho
Die out like cash drop, blow up Gecko
Pro in a second
Grow like an Afro, play like Ronaldo
Hot like I'm death roll
Weight in kilo, light as a pillow
Don't tell my tip-toe, like I type box, though
Come, come, come, easy come some, some
Get a glass of rum, brought a gun into the room
Fun, fun, fun, let's get it undone
Take a hit through the bong, it's been silent since we hung
So go low, go slow, run like a Polo
Up and down that pole at you, glaring up a yoyo
Go low, go slow, run like a Polo
Up and down that pole at you, glaring up a yoyo

Nano-Fusion Protection™ is a patent pending film technology that makes existing topcoats obsolete.
A topcoat is a layer of generally stiffer material laminated to a flexible urethane film base. Current topcoats make PPFs more difficult to install and weather poorly over time. There can be separation at the boundary, causing crazing and stress cracking, which really affects the appearance.
Nano-Fusion Technology infuses the urethane film with clear penetrating protection. Nano-Fusion PPF is more conformable, easier to install, retains its gloss, and resists yellowing and cracking better than other films on the market.
The proof is provided by the best warranty in the business: Nano-Fusion Protection is backed by a Limited "Life Time" Warranty.
Installer's Dream Come True. Not too many years ago the idea of using hot air from a heat gun to shrink car window film for a better fit was unheard of. Today this installation process is widely used and refined into a technique that many dealers have mastered. Of course, how well the process works also depends on the film you use. Choosing anauto window film that is specifically designed to heat-shrink easily can make a world of difference.
Yes. The protection film is designed as a semi-permanent application, but can easily be removed if desired from any OEM painted surface. For removal of the film, simply heat the surface to approximately 150°F and begin by working a corner of the film with your fingernail. After you have enough film to hold onto, pull the film slowly away from the surface. If any adhesive remains, simply use any adhesive cleaner that is safe for the surface and wipe clean with a soft cloth. If any sections are known to have been repainted, extreme caution should be taken on those areas during removal.
A slight line is barely visible at certain angles where the protection film stops.
The film is over 99.5% clear. On any color darker than bright white, you can't see the film. On a stark white car, you can see less than 0.5% of color, which is from the adhesive. So, it is practically invisible.
The Nano Fusion Film as a limited lifetime warranty to the original consumer. Frequent washing and application of high quality automotive spray waxes similar to the care of your car's painted surface is recommended.
No. The protective film's material contains UV inhibitors to prevent the protective film from reacting to the sun's rays, but still allows a certain amount to filter through the material and onto the surface to let the paint "age" with the rest of the vehicle.
You can do anything to the material that you normally do to a car's finish. Frequent washing and waxing will only prolong and enhance the beauty of the product. Yes, the material will accept wax and polishes just as the paint does and will last longer with regular applications.
Use a soft, damp cloth, Q-tip, or soft brush to remove any wax build-up that may occur around the paint protection film.
Yes. The material was originally designed to stop chips on rotor blades and airplane propellers. It is much easier for the product to protect your vehicle's paint than a propeller moving at nearly the speed of sound.
The premium Nano Fusion paint protection film product is warranted to be free of defects in manufacturing and workmanship, and will resist yellowing and cracking resulting from UV exposure. Limitation of remedies and liabilities are solely restricted to the original purchaser.
Repainted surfaces can be a touchy subject as it is not as durable as the factory finish. Factory finishes are baked onto the surface at 350+ degrees which allows a much harder surface and better cohesion bond. Repainted surfaces can be baked only at 150 degrees to prevent damage to the vehicles components and therefore the surface can be more susceptible to lifting, however, if it is a quality job then the burden of concern should not be so much.

Any failure due to material issues and manufacturing processes are covered.

text: I don't remember the numbers, but I do remember working some adjusting (crack-backing) skills on strike plates to measure impule force. Several of us played with whacking the things, and oddly, punches typically registered higher PSI. We think it had to do with the speed of the bodypart at time of impact, and not as much to do with the weight of the part, or the depth of the force (legs bigger, take more energy to get moving, and hence press deeper into the target before dispersing their force?). We had guys there from different MA backgrounds, too. Was interesting. Fun to play with kime, getting immediate numerical feedback from minute changes in approach.Originally Posted by Kane

You really should be heading to Kara before you think about ZA. Even with the nerfs, you still need good gear. More important than your gear, is the gear of the rest of your raid. You could be carried through ZA with some very well geared(t6) healers and dps.
I run 2 ZA's a week for my guild. Since the nerf, I solo tank it with the exception of 3 times. Bear boss, Lynx boss, and Dhawk boss. There I have one of our ret pallies or dps warriors eat the bleed/cleaves/hatchlings. On Monday I had our other tank MT it, I was OT the 3 times I needed it and still pulled 1200 dps overall for the run. So yes, it is nerfed big time, but a 15k cleave on Lynx is still a 15k cleave.
I would run some Kara's and try to get into some other t4 raids, Gruul's and Mag's for some upgrades and badges before heading into ZA.

Nashville singer/songwriter Kim Carnes
feels like the luckiest person in the world. She is blessed with
the freedom to do what she loves – writing songs and performing
live. With a fiery passion interwoven with a unique ability to fuse
words and music, and her exciting live appearances, Kim is now one
of Nashville's most revered writers and gifted artistic talents.
In 1994 Carnes moved to Nashville and plunged
into the city's creative stream. The decision to move to the
songwriting capitol of the world was inevitable. "I was making
so many trips from Los Angeles to Nashville to write songs with
different people that it just got to the point where I needed to
be there," Carnes says of her cross-country relocation. "Nashville
has a great creative atmosphere. It's a small, close-knit
music community that you can't find anywhere else."
Carnes has penned three number one country
songs, including "The Heart Won't Lie", a smash
duet for Reba McEntire and Vince Gill. Other number one's
are "Don't Fall In Love With A Dreamer", a duet
she performed with Kenny Rogers, and "Make No Mistake She's
Mine", a duet by Rogers and Ronnie Milsap.
Co-writing with top Nashville tunesmiths
like Kim Richey, Matraca Berg, Greg Barnhill, Al Anderson, Jeffrey
Steele and Brett James, Carnes has had songs covered by Deana Carter,
Kevin Sharp, Sawyer Brown, Suzy Bogguss, Lila McCann, Pam Tillis,
Tanya Tucker and Michelle Wright. Most recently, she wrote "You
Don't Love Me Anymore", a song on Tim McGraw's
album "A Place In The Sun". Carnes also added background
vocals on four of the tracks on McGraw's album. She is writing
with Deana Carter for her up-coming album and has a cut on Carolyn
Dawn Johnson's current album.
In spite of a busy and productive
writing schedule, Carnes enjoys performing live. Whether playing
concerts with her full band or acoustic in the round shows with
such artists as John Hiatt, Michael McDonald, Hal Ketchum, Matraca
Berg, Greg Barnhill, Deana Carter, Al Anderson, Jeffrey Steele,
and Steve Wariner; Carnes' live shows have been enthusiastically
received. Recently, Kim performed a duet with Jeff Bridges of "Burning
Ring of Fire" for his film "The Contender
with Greg Barnhill (L)
and Suzy Bogguss (R)
time allows, Carnes enjoys taking her intimate show on the road
to a variety of notable performing arts centers. From small venues
like a vintage theatre in Santa Fe to a 5,000 seat outdoor amphitheater
in Seattle, her live performances are natural, powerful, and entertaining.
Showing her versatility, she has even performed with the Nashville
A native of Los Angeles, Carnes knew for
the time that she was three years old that she was going to write
songs and perform them for people. Success was never in doubt. Carnes
garnered her first record deal in 1972 with famous record producer
Jimmy Bowen. After a stint with A&M Records, she became the
first signed artist at the newly established EMI-America (Capitol)
in 1978. Soon after, her duet with Gene Cotton on "You're
a Part Of Me" became her first top-forty hit. She then took
on the unusual task of writing an entire concept album for Kenny
of a place in music history, Carnes continued to augment her success
through the 1980's. While releasing acclaimed albums like
Voyeur (1982), Café Racers (1983), Barking At Airplanes (1985),
and Lighthouse (1986), Carnes' album View From The House (1988)
yielded "Crazy In Love", a top 10 Adult Contemporary
hit, while Barking At Airplanes produced the top 15 hit "Crazy
In The Night".
also contributed "I'll Be Here Where The Heart Is"
to the Grammy-winning soundtrack Flashdance and sang with Kenny
Rogers and James Ingram on the top 15 hit, "What About Me?".
In addition, she was part of an all-star chorus on the legendary
"We Are The World" recording and video. Carnes also
wrote and produced the top 20 song "Make No Mistake He's
Mine", a duet she recorded with Barbara Streisand. Kim Carnes
is a wellspring of soul-stirring lyrics and melodies. In total harmony
when composing music, she loves the creative process and the opportunity
to work with Nashville's best. "I write from what's
in my heart," Carnes says. "I write what I
love and have always done that. I'm so lucky to be writing
and performing with some of the best writers in the world. I'm
having a blast."
"I never had any other thought
in my mind. I was gonna write songs, I was gonna be a star and a
singer and I never thought of doing anything else."

PC market to spend ANOTHER year soaked in blood, warns IDC
How do they not get this?
High res screens at a decent ratio! I want to upgrade my laptop at the moment but when even > £800 will not buy me a laptop that has a vertical resolution better than my 4 year old one it's a no sale!
I'm sure that I'm not alone in being in this situation. If you walk into a retail outlet at the moment, there is really nothing that differentiates the top end machines from the low end to the average buyer to whom price is the most expensive factor.
I find myself in the insane position where I want to spend some money on a laptop but no company can provide a compelling reason to.
Unbelievably it would appear that Apple are the only one's to see this. I really don't want a Mac but may end up buying a 'Retina' ( I hate that term) at their incredibly inflated prices just to be able to have a decent resolution.

Apple said to develop curved glass iWatch with Foxconn
Re: iWatch or iPhone ?
Nice plug Theo..... but that article is just fucking bad - seriously, I don't like swearing even on the internet but I just cannot figure how else to express my disgust.
You tell me that "The mobile phone form factor as it is today is dying". I say bullshit. A quick Google shows that in the last quarter of 2012 smartphone sales alone have accounted for massive growth (47% compared to 2011) in the mobile phone sector.
Almost everyone I see has a smartphone and even my Luddite father who still has a Nokia 6310 has finally started talking about how he'd like a phone that "does something".
You then compound your nonsensical drivel by stating "Nobody really wants screen real-estate in a device we talk into, it's senseless and unnecessary." Go and sit on a bus, take a train or even go a coffee shop. almost all people there will have a smartphone and it will appear to be glued to their hands.
Are you seriously saying that people will want a phone only if it's small and wearable? That apple will release this shit and the whole industry will collectively slap their forehead and see where they've all been going wrong?
Smartphones have their place in the world at the moment and have got there by combining features that people want, not by isolating a single subset. By your logic we'd all be walking around with a dumbphone and a tablet and that the original iphone should have failed.
I can see the point that a device to supplement your phone may be a good idea - on paper. However, if it was actually a good idea then the myriad of other devices that do the same job and are already on the market would be selling in the millions. please explain why, in your twisted vision of the near future the 'big' companies (Samsung et al) are not already all over this?
The rest of the article appears to be the deluded wanking fantasy of a 'futurist'. I wasted my time reading your article and it made me angry enough to write this, I'm not angry at your opinion just in the way that you've neglected to announce it as complete fiction at the beginning.
I sincerely hope that I never stumble across any of your other work.
Space Shuttle Columbia disaster remembered 10 years on
Re: Why not? @Stevie
No need to improvise.... NASA actually built prototypes of the Personal Rescue Enclosure. This was an inflatable spherical "spacecraft" that had just enough room for one person and enough oxygen for 1 hour. It was intended that space suited crew from a rescue shuttle would use these to ferry unsuited crew from the damaged orbiter to the rescue craft.
Developed in 1984 and never used and there is very little information on these past the challenger disaster possibly suggesting that they may not have been feasible but it certainly suggests that rescue from a damaged shuttle would have been possible.
Re: Why not?
Back in the golden age of space heroes (AKA the 1960's) there was serious thought given about escaping from a crippled ship and how to return to earth from orbit. Project MOOSE (Man Out Of Space Easiest) was one proposal. It basically consisted of an astronaut strapping on a backpack full of expanding polyurethane that would fill an inflatable heat shield that he would 'sit' in, he would propel himself out of orbit with a strap on booster attached to his chest along with a high altitude parachute. The polyurethane would partially ablate during re-entry and absorb some shock of landing.
As far as i recall this got to the stages of testing it in a firing chamber at re-entry temperatures and it appeared that it would work. It was, however, ultimately cancelled along with the X-20 Dyna-soar ( a much cooler looking spaceplane).
There's tons of info about this online but there are some nice conceptual drawings here:
Re: Killed by numeric overflow?
The Block 2 Apollo CSM design also benefited hugely from the loss of three astronauts during a 'plugs out' pad test. The subsequent investigation turned up massive deficiencies in the design ultimately leading to the robust design that you speak of.
It's interesting to note that STS-1 (the first real test flight) had a similar issue where the thermal protection system was damaged on launch and hot gas was allowed to duct into the landing gear well severely damaging part of the wheel brace. John Young has gone on record as saying that if he had been aware of this he and Crippen would have bailed out of the orbiter rather than attempt the landing.

China seeks 'Oceanauts' for deep sea exploration
Re: Welcome to Atrantis!
Mining is a bit of a misnomer, most of the mineral wealth referred to here is in the form of manganese nodules. These concretions cover an estimated 70% of the abyssal plains and tend to look like knobbly potatoes buried in the sediment. There would be no digging involved and certainly not enough waste to cover the entire ocean and it would almost certainly be less than the western sea mining impact; Deepwater Horizon anyone?
Most major nations of the world including the UK, USA, France and Germany have already attempted mining of this resource back in the 60's and 70's but the cost of retrieving the nodules was not financially viable. These attempts did however, lead to development of other useful tech like towed side scan sonar. If China can make this work then let them go for it!
As an aside there are five major gyres in the worlds oceans all of them have accumulated rubbish, we're all to blame!
For anyone who is interested here are some images of nodules:
Last moon landing was 40 years ago today
Re: Last man
There's a really nice quote from Jim Lovell after Apollo 8:
"Issac Newton was doing all the driving"
I envy you and others who got to see this first hand - I was not even a twinkle in my father's eye back then!
Re: Last man
You have to remember that the Apollo program was never completed, Apollo's 18,19 & 20 were already planned and they hoped for at least 21 & 22. All of these later missions would have had at least one scientist on board. The budget cuts were something as a shock for NASA and they reacted correctly by bumping Joe Engle from the LMP position as soon as it was clear that 17 was to be the last of the manned landings.
Gene Cernan fought the decision to send a scientist to the moon very publicly for a long time, but, he has since said that Schmitt proved a 'capable' LM pilot - grudging praise indeed!
Also the fact remains that none of the scientist astronauts were actually ready for a mission until this time, just logging the flying time required by NASA at the time took years!
Regardless of the backgrounds of any the people who walked on the moon good science was carried out on all missions in the Apollo program barring 13 as they had more pressing matters to attend.
It is a crying shame that the political support was so transient for this program had it continued we would have had a manned Mars - Venus flyby by 1985 rather than the anticlimax of Skylab and the final 'get Deke into space' mission in 1975.

Robot rover Curiosity sets out on first long Mars trip
Re: Why so slow?
They chose Gale Crater as a landing site to avoid this. The area around Mount Sharp is believed to show a good sample of Mars geology from the last two billion years with the added bonus of having the whole thing covered by water at some point in mars' history.
They did this also with the Apollo landing sites, it's important to maximize the science gains in the shortest time possible as equipment failure or accident could be lurking just around the corner.

I would guess that the cost to develop and test such a system could not be justified for a mission that was intended to last no more than 90 Sols.
There's also the weight penalty to factor in as well, the solar panel cleaning system would probably have meant that a science experiment would have to be left out.

Have you tried it? or are you basing this opinion only on screenshots?
The paradigm is that the mobile screen is in effect a window into information that is too large to view. Your butchered sentence makes no sense when you realise that the whole sentence in WP7 would be visible simply by scrolling sideways. the lack of submenus in WP7 is refreshing!
I was sceptical until I bought an HTC Titan (4.7 inch screen with 2.5 - 3 days use between charges - Amazing.) after two years of Android. There's no way I'd go back now - Everything just works. I've not found an app yet that I've needed that hasn't been present, there is however, a lack of fart apps wich must also mean it's rubbish right?

Apollo 14 'naut attempts to flog Moon camera for $80k
re:Don't believe him?
Actually back in those days almost all NASA astronauts were test pilots first and scientists secondly. Schmitt on Apollo 17 was the first and only 'true' scientist to fly to the moon.
To be fair though, Mitchell is not the only astronaut to have said this kind of thing. Gordon Cooper ("Who's the best damn pilot y'all ever did see?") was quite vocal in his later years about seeing alien spacecraft being tested by the military in Germany.
As to "You think they choose crazy people to go in space?" all I can say is look up Lisa Nowak.
Endeavour bids adios to ISS
Did you think they'd change their mind?
The program should have been abandoned decades ago. It's never fulfilled its design goals, was comprimised by USAF requirements that were never needed and has needlessly claimed lives due to known design flaws. The potential for thermal shielding failure was identified after STS-1, I read that John Young said that if he had known of the damage caused by thermal protection failure he would have ejected from the orbiter during the descent.
The original design called for the shuttle to be refurbed and reflown within two weeks of landing. The current record stands at just over eight.
The money could have been far better spent on a continued Apollo applications program. With further production runs of the Saturn V the white elephant of the ISS could have been finished in under 5 years - without the frequent, risky and costly servicing missions. It's not inconceivable that a reuseable re-entry vehicle like the X-15 using an S-IVb for orbital maneuvers could have been devoloped for a fraction of the cost as a continuation of the AAP.
The hubble repair mission stands out as a high point of the program. can't think of any more right now though.

In this file photo, Jordan Tippit works on defensive plays with his team during the Mocs practice at Scrappy Moore field.Staff File Photo by Dan Henry/Chattanooga Times Free Press
There is competition this spring for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football team's two starting safety spots. That wasn't the case last season.
Jordan Tippit and Chris Lewis-Harris are returning starters and D.J. Key also is working with the first team. Three players in the mix is one more than the Mocs had in 2010 because Tippit and Lewis-Harris had the jobs to themselves.
"There was nobody pushing them, nobody in back of them. There was no backup plan," defensive coordinator Adam Fuller said. "When they played well it was fine and nobody noticed, but when they didn't play well there was no [other option].
"I think competition helps in practice. I don't know how much it helps in a game, but it for sure helps Monday through Friday."
Key started two games at safety last season when Tippit was out with an ankle injury, but he primarily was a backup linebacker — a very productive one. Key finished second on the team with 57 tackles and was named to the Southern Conference's All-Freshman team.
"We've got to get D.J. on the field," head coach Russ Huesman said, something he mentioned several times last season. "He's one of our best 11 defensive players, so we'll figure out a way."
Tippit and Lewis-Harris are heading into their senior seasons. After making 60 stops and earning first-team All-SoCon honors in 2009, Tippit had a down season last fall. He missed two games and finished with 29 tackles, though he did have three interceptions.
After moving from cornerback to safety last spring, Lewis-Harris was third on the team in tackles last season with 55 stops.
Pro day today
The Mocs' offensive line had an "up and down" practice Tuesday, Geep Wade said. That's about what the offensive line coach expected after a break of nearly two weeks.
At the end of practice the first-team offense and defense went at it in the two-minute drill, and Wade's guys were able to get set for the quick snaps and protect the quarterback. Wade said there was one missed assignment but otherwise he was pretty pleased with the performance.
Former UTC cornerback Buster Skrine will be the star attraction during the Mocs' pro day today. After posting some of the best running numbers at the NFL combine, Skrine and several other former Mocs will work out for scouts and position coaches.
Because of his good performance at the combine, Skrine will not run the 40-yard dash or anything else today. He said he will be doing only position drills.
Skrine, rated a possible third-round pick by ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr., said he also has five individual workouts with teams scheduled for the next few weeks, as well as a team visit.
Mocs strength coach Scott Brincks said six former players will participate in the pro day, including two-time All-SoCon left tackle Chris Harr and All-SoCon tight end Garrett Hughes.
Extra points
The Mocs held their first practice since March 9 on Tuesday, and as expected some of the players were a little rusty. ... Defensive end Davis Tull (broken hand) didn't practice and will be held out of contact for the rest of the spring.
John Frierson is in his seventh year at the Times Free Press and seventh year covering University of Tennessee at Chattanooga athletics. The bulk of his time is spent covering Mocs football, but he also writes about women's basketball and the big-picture issues and news involving the athletic department. A native of Athens, Ga., John grew up a few hundred yards from the University of Georgia campus. Instead of becoming a Bulldog he attended Ole ...

Midsomer Norton 20mph speed limit proposal
By MrLemon | Saturday, November 03, 2012, 13:22
Just got round to opening my letter from Bath and North East Somerset Councill about their plans to impose a 20mph speed limit on roads in Midsomer Norton.
Midsomer Norton 20mph speed limit - a good idea?
An admirable plan, perhaps, but seems to me they can't enforce the current 30mph speed limit, what makes them think that 20mph will be easier.
Haven't they seen (or heard) the boy racers in town? The High Street resembles a race track for those adapted Novas and Renault 5s.
The new plans, which Midsomer Norton residents should respond to by 7 November, also shows several roads which WON'T be subject to the 20mph limit.
These include North Road and Radstock Road, on which there is Midsomer Norton Primary School and Welton Primary School! Brilliant.

Womens Indoor Regionals Report 2012
UWIR 12/13 was to be an exciting one for WOW. From only having 2 players remaining at the end of last year, we had managed to recruit a dozen or so women to WOW and we were all excited to be able to participate in regionals and show the other teams that we had an awesome new team.
Our first game of the day started with a game against Bears 2. With the majority of the team not having played in a tournament before, this was a good match to start out with. Both teams were learning to play with each other and the game ended with WOW winning by a couple of points.
Second game: BUF+2WOW girls. This was a relaxed game and the fact that we were both Oxford teams was a reason for the slightly playful atmosphere, with the BUF girls dancing on the sideline now and again as points were scored. WOW were very quick at getting into the tournament and this game was a great improvement from the previous one. We had great handler movement and cutters were finding free spaces to run into. However, the match ended with BUF beating us by a very small margin.
Our third game was to be a tough one. Match against UBU1. We had seen them shatter UEA (AyeAye), a strong team, so we knew this was going to be a challenge. We fought hard and managed to score some points but we were no match against a team consisting of experienced players. But we saw it as a learning experience and weren't disheartened by the result.
We managed to claim our second victory in our pool game, this time against Fling 2, a good-spirited team. We had heard about their handler weave, but by sticking tight to our opponents when on D and running hard when on O, we managed to win the game which was a confidence boost after the defeat against UBU1.
Our last pool game was against UEA. Oh how I do love playing against this team! It was a fantastic match. WOW's play was the best yet, with the girls making great D's and scoring against more experienced players. AyeAye are a wonderfully spirited team and the game was very enjoyable indeed with UEA defeating us but not by much.
The first cross-over match against Bears1 started off rather disorganised as WOW were busy playing calls with UEA and as a result were slightly late to start the match (whoops). Bears1 had very experienced players on their team and liked to zone us (or as I like to call it: zöning). It was our hardest match yet and ended with a victory to the opponents.
However, our performance was to continue to soar throughout the day. WOW powered through the game against UBU2 in the 8 vs 10 match. Even though our opponents had taller women, we had the speed and our players were to discover that they could make some amazing Ds and catches. WOW managed to win comfortably compared to our previous games.
Our second last game of the day: Another match against UEA. This was a match that both teams really wanted as winning this would put the winner in the game-to-go (4vs5) match. However, even though we had improved throughout the day, it was hard to defeat a more experienced team. UEA defeated us once again but it was yet another fantastic match.
Finally the 7vs8 match. This turned out to be against BUF again. As both teams were really tired and with a long journey ahead of us, we kindly asked the organisers to let us reschedule the game so that we could play back in Oxford instead. So this match was played a couple of days later in the Brookes Sport Centre. This time the game was more serious. We had both WOW and BUF supporters and we got to show how awesome women in Oxford could be at ultimate. The game was close but WOW managed to secure a win and end 7th in regionals.
So what else can I say about this weekend? I think we all had a great time. Jane was always there as a handler, Jo made some amazing catches in the endzone and Andrea made amazing Ds against UBU2. Izzy was quick to take the initiative as a back-up handler, Rebekka scored some great points, Serena made some amazing catches and thanks to Emily and Marianne who were fantastic extra players for BUF. Nicki, you saved my neck by just being awesome and helping us all out when we got into sticky situations. Thank you also to Aron who drove some of us to Norwich and supported us on the sideline. Finally a big thank you (and hug) to Harry, who helped organise the team, be an amazing cuddly mascot and supporter of WOW throughout the tournament.
That's all from me. I am very proud of what WOW achieved during the weekend and I look forward to women's outdoor regionals next term.
Jess (WOW captain)

|One-way repentance
|By Pascal Bruckner
|Monday, 19 July 2010
The wave of repentance that is washing over Europe and especially our main churches is salutary only if it is mutual, and other beliefs, other systems recognize their aberrations as well. Contrition cannot be reserved for the few and purity attributed, like a kind of moral income, to those who say they have been humiliated. For too many countries in Africa, the Near East, and Latin America, self-criticism is confused with the search for a convenient scapegoat that explains all their misfortunes: it is never their fault; the fault always lies elsewhere (in the West, globalization, capitalism). But this division is not exempt from racism: when tropical or overseas peoples are relieved of all responsibility for their situation, they are at the same time deprived of all freedom and plunged back into the condition of infantilism that obtained under colonialism. Every war, every crime against humanity among the damned of the Earth is supposed to be somewhat our fault and ought to lead us to confess our guilt, to pay endlessly for being a member of the bloc of wealthy nations. This culture of apologies is above all a culture of condescension. Nothing authorizes us to divide humanity into the guilty and the innocent, for innocence is the lot of children, but also that of idiots and slaves. A people that is never held accountable for its acts has lost all the qualities that make it possible to treat it as an equal. Thus we must enlarge the circle of repentance, open it to all continents, and not confine it to Northern Hemisphere countries alone.

Hoover High School was locked down for a couple of hours this morning after a student found a written bomb threat in the cafeteria. Two juniors were arrested and charged with making terrorist threats. Idiots.
And Homewood High School will be open tomorrow despite rumors about threats to the school and its students. Authorities have investigated and found nothing to confirm the stories. I wonder how many kids will be absent.

The pilot stated that he began a landing descent for a planned fuel stop. He reported that the left tank was low, while the right tank had more than one-half tank of fuel. At 7,000 feet msl in the descent, the engine lost power and quit. He was unable to glide to an airport, so he prepared for landing on a road. During the landing, he steered the airplane to avoid an oncoming truck. The left wing struck a pole, resulting in substantial damage. Both main wing fuel tanks gravity feed to a five-gallon sump tank, and an FAA inspector was able to drain approximately two gallons of fuel from the sump tank at the accident site; no fuel could be drained from the main tanks. The tank sight gauges indicated zero in the left tank and well below the lowest mark in the right tank. An additional 4.75 gallons of fuel was recovered during disassembly of the airplane for transport. Inspection of the fuel manifold revealed no evidence of fuel. The owner's representative stated that the low-profile wing tanks would have unusable fuel in a nose-low attitude, since the main tank fuel drains are located aft and inboard on the tank.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Last week's survey asked how Weekly Genealogist readers manage their genealogy data. The results are:
67%, I use a combination of systems
25 %, I use software on my computer

Paula Hinkel of Sherman Oaks, California, wrote "In this week's survey, there was one option missing. I was looking for 'random stacks of paper strewn haphazardly around the office.' Then again, maybe I'm the only one."
