Best Lewis Structure
The Lewis structure that is closest to your structure is determined.
The hybridization of the atoms in this idealized Lewis structure
is given in the table below.
Please note that your structure can't be well described by a single
Lewis structure, because of extensive delocalization.
Hybridization in the Best Lewis Structure
__has 50.71% C 1 character in a sp2.47 hybrid
__has 49.29% C 2 character in a sp1.77 hybrid

Donor Acceptor Interactions in the Best Lewis Structure
The localized orbitals in your best Lewis structure
can interact strongly. A filled bonding or lone pair orbital can
act as a donor and an empty or filled bonding, antibonding, or
lone pair orbital can act as an acceptor. These
interactions can strengthen and weaken bonds. For example, a
lone pair donor->antibonding acceptor orbital interaction
will weaken the bond
associated with the antibonding orbital. Conversly, an interaction
with a bonding pair as the acceptor will strengthen the bond.
Strong electron delocalization in your best Lewis structure will
also show up as donor-acceptor interactions.
Interactions greater than 20 kJ/mol for bonding and lone pair
orbitals are listed below.
Molecular Orbital Energies
The orbital energies are given in eV, where 1 eV=96.49 kJ/mol.
Orbitals with very low energy are core 1s orbitals.
More antibonding orbitals than you might expect are sometimes
listed, because d orbitals are always included for heavy
atoms and p orbitals are included for H atoms.
Up spins are shown with a ^ and down spins are shown as v.

Total Electronic Energy
The total electronic energy is a very large number, so by convention
the units are given in atomic units, that is Hartrees (H). One
Hartree is 2625.5 kJ/mol. The energy reference is for totally
dissociated atoms. In other words, the reference state is a gas
consisting of nuclei and electrons all at infinite distance from
each other. The electronic energy includes all electric
interactions and the kinetic energy of the electrons. This energy
does not include translation, rotation, or vibration of the
the molecule.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 99% of sexually active women from 2006 to 2010 used at least one contraceptive method at some point. Here's a look at a variety of birth control methods and how they each work. Hide Caption 1 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosIUD – An intrauterine device, or IUD, is a T-shaped flexible device that's inserted by a doctor into a woman's uterus. The devices blocks sperm and changes the lining of the uterus, which may keep a fertilized egg from attaching. Pregnancy is prevented from three to 12 years, depending on the type. Hide Caption 2 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosThe pill – Approved in 1960 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, oral contraceptives involve taking a daily pill with a combination of estrogen and a progestin. The hormones prevent ovulation and thicken a woman's cervical mucus, blocking sperm from fertilizing an egg. Hide Caption 3 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosFemale condom – Condoms aren't just for men. The female condom fits inside the vagina with a ring at one end that covers the cervix. When used correctly all of the time, the National Institutes of Health says that it's 95% effective, with the bonus protection from sexually transmitted infections.Hide Caption 4 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosDiaphragm – The diaphragm also fits inside the vagina, but only covers the cervix, where it blocks sperm from entering the uterus. It is made of silicone and can last up to two years. A spermicide must be used for greatest effectiveness.Hide Caption 5 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosCervical cap – The cervical cap is similar to a diaphragm, only smaller in size and made out of rubber instead of silicone. It is useful for women who find it hard to keep a diaphragm in place. Hide Caption 6 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosImplant – Implants are flexible, matchstick-size devices that are surgically inserted into a woman's arm. They slowly release the hormone progestin into the body, which prevents a woman's ovaries from releasing eggs. The protection lasts up to several years. Hide Caption 7 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosThe patch – For women who don't want to take a pill or insert a device, the Ortho Evra birth control patch sticks to the body and releases pregnancy-preventing hormones through the skin. A woman must change her patch once a week, for three weeks in a row. No patch is used in the fourth week, then the cycle starts again.Hide Caption 8 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosVaginal ring – NuvaRing, approved for use in the United States in 2001, is a small, flexible ring inserted into the vagina. It releases estrogen and progestin, the same pregnancy-preventing hormones found in most variations of the birth-control pill. Hide Caption 9 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosVaginal sponge – Introduced in 1983, the Today Sponge was pulled from the market after fears of toxic shock but returned in 2005 following design changes. The sponge contains spermicide and can be inserted into the vagina before sex, like a diaphragm, to prevent pregnancy. Hide Caption 10 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosThe shot – Depo-Provera, an injection form of birth control, provides protection for three months with hormones that prevent ovulation and block sperm. It doesn't contain estrogen as do some other forms of birth control. As a result, it is a popular option for women who can't take estrogen or who are breastfeeding. Hide Caption 11 of 12Birth control methods 12 photosMorning-after pill – Emergency contraception, frequently referred to as the morning-after pill, can be taken to prevent pregnancy up to five days after unprotected sex. It can prevent the ovaries from releasing eggs and thickens a woman's cervical mucus. The morning-after pill can also thin uterus lining, which could prevent a fertilized egg from attaching.

That's the advantage a corporation has: They can have engineers and testers work full-time on a project. Those of us doing this as a hobby in evenings/weekends take short-cuts. My short-cut has been to develop just once, and if all looks normal, accept that and proceed to the next test. Also, I have tight control over temperature, exposure, agitation, etc. to try to improve the chance that my first try will not have any anomalies. But your point is that there is still test-to-test variation, and only multiple tests will reveal the variation-ranges.
Do you have any ideas of how to get variation-ranges (error-bands) without tripling the amount of effort? Maybe if I make three runs of the most popular films, and just one of the others? Or three runs of anything that looks odd? Or maybe others could volunteer to share the tedious testing effort?

Diversity: There are endless groups for every minority available, even the super-rude westboro demonstrationists are allowed to speak their mind in the main plaza. People may naturally flock together but I've never seen any discrimination.
Athletics: One of the most athletic schools in the country. Obviously. Intramurals are easy to dabble in, facilities reflect insane athletic success. Run stadiums in the swamp at sunrise.
Administration: No complaints but a lot of parking tickets, there's a big spot shortage which is annoying.
Health & Safety: UFAlert sends out messages in any event of crime within the whole town, student government installed light sensors, developed an app to send pings if you feel unsafe, bus billboards promote safe drinking habits, free health center staff is super nice and discreet. Cops are posted during late night library hours as well as always patrolling sorority row, SNAP is one of two free "taxi" services around campus late night, and they're responsive to complaints, extending drop-off locations, adding tracking system. There's some bad neighborhoods on the outskirts but they do what they can.
Campus Quality: Beautiful big campus, gym, athletic facilities and enthusiasm, massive alumni base filling football and baseball games and expanding the campus. Best place in the world.
Campus Quality: 24/7 main library with Starbucks across from the center of the bar scene (Midtown) and just a ton of tradition and things to do in general. Renovating the student center and adding some elaborate building right now, some are a little old but beautiful brick surrounded by Spanish moss. Greek life is where its at but there's clubs for everyone, and I mean everyone.
Off-Campus Dining: So many places to eat down on Archer: chains, fast foods, and some quality places. Eating out is a bit pricey once you add up all the times you go out to eat.
Greek Life: Majority of students are affiliated with Greek life, mainly PC and IFC sororities and fraternities. Multicultural sororities and fraternities also exist, however, campus lacks great Greek unity between all the councils.
Local Area: Gainesville is very much a college town and other than that a swamp. Many restaurants to choose from; a lot of fast food. Midtown and Downtown are some main attractions as well as Lake Walburg.
Academics: Anything pre-med or prehealth major requires a lot of science and math coursework. Many of the intro classes are difficult only because they are weed out classes. One realizes you really have to practice and practice before your exams. Students should take advantage of office hours and most importantly the TAs! They are always willing to help out! Go to advising early; the wait time for advisers can take hours of your day.
Academics: Intro classes are large lecture halls, so professors won't know you unless you go to office hours. Registration is a pain because it goes by credit hours and restricts you until your appointed time. The demanded and good classes always fill up quick!
Guys & Girls: Many are affiliated with Greek life. Honestly, people wear whatever they want in college. Some common looks are athletic wear, Greek shirts, leggings, running shorts, Sperry's, Jack's and of course anything orange and blue.
Scholarships: The benefit of attending college instate is Florida Prepaid and Bright Futures which helps with financing the price of college. The lines waiting for the Bursar and Financial Aid office become packed, so get there early if you need to clarify with anything!
Administration: College is about freedom and independency. The choice to go to class or do the right thing falls upon the student. Most rules and regulations are reasonable. Parking and speeding regulations are highly enforced.
Overall Experience: Honestly, first year transitioning to college was a little difficult at first. After school really settled in and the work load among other obligations and extracurriculars, I learned that college is very different from high school. However, college has been a great way to grow, meet new people, and experience and learn things. Second semester definitely was more enjoyable.
Off-Campus Housing: Many choices available when it comes to living off campus. Some are walking distance to campus, while others are farther away. Regardless, most students choose to live in apartments after their first year for more space and pricing among other reasons.
Campus Quality: Being part of the Gator Nation, a great sense of community and spirit exists and binds students and faculty together for a lifetime.
Campus Quality: Many activities and opportunities to get involved in. Campus is a little unmaintained, but new developments and buildings are being constructed. Many spacious libraries on campus including Library West, which is open 24 hours. The two gyms on campus offer tons of recreational activities to work out.
Campus Food: Not a great amount variety although there is variety nonetheless. It is rather convenient although I believe the hours of operation should be extended.
Diversity: With almost 50,000 students, UF has to be one of the most diverse universities in the country. We seem to have every race. We have tons of political and LGBT organizations. As a public university, we have a lot of kids who don't come from much economically, but because the education is so good, we still have a lot of "rich kids" too. You can always find a group to fit into at UF
Off-Campus Dining: I don't eat out much. I'm on a budget and I purchase flex bucks, where you can eat at on campus fast food chains. I go out occasionally with my friends for a treat, but we usually hit the fast food places, and that is fine with me.
Health & Safety: Probably about the same on every campus. There are security escorts, if needed, and security phones all over campus if you feel threatened at any point. I have not had a problem, even when I sometimes walk the campus late at night, but I am a guy.
Local Area: I like it because it is a real college town. Almost everything in Gainesville revolves around UF life. Whether you are on campus or in town, students are treated well. Locals recognize that students bring in a big economic boom and they are usually pretty decent toward us.
Administration: Very strict in some things (parking) and very good about security matters, like walking the campus late at night. Pretty laid back about partying, but maybe that's because I haven't been to many heavy duty, drug or underage alcohol parties.
Guys & Girls: The girls here are awesome, both pretty and smart. You have every kind of look going on here: beauty queen, goth, jock, average, etc. Maybe it's because we live in Florida, but students don't really let themselves go here much (not a lot of overweight students, etc.)
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Some schools have certain advantages over others. Small schools give a feeling of community; large schools have lots of resources; private schools are ripe for close academic relationships with faculty; and state schools offer a good value. Well, UF is not your typical state school, and Gainesville is certainly not your stereotypical small town. Because this place is so big, it has all of the libraries, dorms, athletics, courses, clubs, and services you could want at a good price. But if you put forth just a little effort, you'll find that the University also has more compassionate, down-to-earth professors, locals, and students that any small, private school could ever dream of having.
The best thing about going to a school like UF is that whatever you want to accomplish in life, it is probably obtainable through going to this school. You will never have to worry about not fitting in with anyone because the campus is a huge melting pot. Students are never bored on campus because there is literally always something to do with friends both on or off campus. And who wouldn't want to go to a school where the immense amount of school pride is literally unexplainable? It sure is great to be a Florida Gator.

Comments about Warrior 2 in. Conditioning/Stripping Kit:
used to remove rust from pickup frame before painting. The course disks worked great, but also wore away fairly quickly. The small size was good for getting into spring shackle brackets and other tight areas. Wish they sold package with just the course disks.

Numerical verification of regularity in the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for bounded sets of initial data

Current theoretical results for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations only guarantee that solutions remain regular for all time when the initial enstrophy (parallel to Du(0)parallel to(2) := integral vertical bar curl u(0 vertical bar)(2)) is sufficiently small, parallel to Du(0)parallel to(2) <= chi(0). In fact, this smallness condition is such that the enstrophy is always non-increasing. In this paper we provide a numerical procedure that will verify regularity of solutions for any bounded set of initial conditions, parallel to Du(0)parallel to(2) <= chi(1). Under the assumption that the equations are in fact regular we show that this procedure can be guaranteed to terminate after a finite time.

NEW DELHI: Even as the Bharatiya Janata Party maintained a studied silence here over the political developments in Jharkhand where the Assembly poll results have thrown up a fractured verdict, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) claimed on Friday in Ranchi that it would form the government under the leadership of its president Shibu Soren with the support of the BJP and the All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU).
"The BJP and the AJSU have agreed to support the JMM," party vice-president Hemlal Murmu was quoted as having said in agency reports from Ranchi.
The BJP won 18 seats and has a pre-poll alliance with the Janata Dal (United) which won two seats. The JMM has also bagged 18 seats and the AJSU sprung a surprise victory of five assembly seats, taking the total up to 43 in the 81-member House which is two more than the simple majority mark.
BJP sources said party president Nitin Gadkari and the former president, Rajnath Singh, held a meeting to discuss the political developments in Jharkhand.

TORONTO — The tough economic times Loblaw Cos. officials have been worried about have finally arrived. But they haven't come without opportunity. Resigned to a period of slowing revenues as the Canadian grocery market absorbs rapid deflation, the retailer said it has launched a slew of new pricing programs to drive volumes and win market share across its banners. Allen Leighton, president and deputy chairman of Loblaw, in a conference call last week noted that inflation began to recede ...

And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
You cunt, I'm not a queer
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
And each and every highway
And yet, much more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again too few to mention
But dig, what I have to do
I'll see it through with no devotion
Of that, take care and just
Be careful along the highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
There were times
I'm sure you knew
When there was but
But fucking else to do but through it all
When there was doubt
I shot it up or kicked it out
I faced the wall, and the wall
And did it my way
Knocked out in bed last night
I've had my fill, my share of looting
And now, the tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think, I killed a cat
And may I say, oh no, did not their way
But no, oh no, not me
And I did it my way
For what is a brat
What has he got
When he finds out that he cannot
Say the things, he truly thinks
But only the words
Not what he feels
The record shows
For I've got no clothes
And did it my way

The only 10,000 RPM SATA drive on the market, VelociRaptor targets blade servers, high-performance PCs, Macs, professional workstations, and 1U and 2U rack servers. The new model offers twice the capacity and up to a 15 percent performance increase over the previous generation.
Western Digital describes the VelociRaptor as a hard drive built with -class mechanics that provide durability under high-performance demands with up to 600GB of storage in a 2.5-inch enterprise form factor. With 1.4 million hours MTBF (mean time between failures), these drives have the highest available reliability rating for a high-capacity SATA drive.
Breaking Moore's Law
Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT, has noticed an undeniable trend in the storage industry: Bigger and faster rules. For all the talk about Moore's law being the industry's performance metric, he said, the fact is storage capacity and performance in the hard-disk space has continued to outstrip Moore's law in the doubling of performance and capacity.
"As opposed to every 18 months, storage tends to increase performance on the scale of anywhere from 12 to 16 months," King said. "With the new VelociRaptor disk drives, we're just seeing more evidence that even as PC performance continues to march forward inexorably, the storage industry is moving just as fast, if not even faster, to continue to enhance the performance of new PCs and high-performance workstations."
Western Digital also designed the new drives with green factors in mind. The VelociRaptor consumes no more than the previous generation, according to the company. In addition to being RoHS-compliant, this generation of VelociRaptor is also a halogen-free.
Storage in a Digital World
King said it's critical that storage products continue to evolve on the same pace as PCs, especially considering next-generation content-creation devices like digital cameras. Digital files just keep getting bigger and bigger.
"Storage is an interesting part of the PC paradigm. Storage plays in so many devices now," King said. "Take a look at the devices that people use to define the digital experience -- MP3 players, laptop computers, new devices, and so on. None of those would really be possible without fast, cost-effective, even inexpensive storage."
The 2.5-inch VelociRaptor is enclosed in a backplane-ready 3.5-inch enterprise-class mounting frame with a built-in heat sink to keep the drive cool when installed in a high-performance desktop chassis. The drives are under evaluation with OEMs and will be available through select commercial distributors this quarter. Prices are expected to be $299 for the 450GB and $329 for the 650GB.

Imagine if your city streets were left pristine, unstained by those unattractive black chewing gum splotches. Sound like a pipe dream? Well, it's not an impossibility–Revolymer, a spin-out company from the University of Bristol, has invented a removable chewing gum that can easily be cleaned up with just soap and water!
Revolymer's gum was shown off to US customers this week at the National Association of Convenience Store Show. The gum, dubbed Rev7TM, degrades into minerals and biodegradable materials when tossed down the drain. Once placed in water the gum takes approximately 6 months to disintegrate into powder form.
Rev7TM will be released in retail stores by early 2011, where classic peppermint and spearmint flavors will mark the debut, with more flavors to be released later in the year. Word of advice: Wrigley's, watch your back.

Summer Skate: Penguins
Big season may lie ahead for Pittsburgh's uber-talented center
Using the VUKOTA projection system of Hockey Prospectus, Insider is taking the temperature of key players on every NHL team, continuing with the Pittsburgh Penguins. For a detailed explanation of Prospectus' proprietary GVT value metric, read more here.
Note: Due to the lockout, GVT scores for the 2013 season are prorated from 48 to 82 games.
Summer Skate: Pittsburgh Penguins
Was 2009 an exception? Pittsburgh fans are surely asking themselves this question, as their beloved team faltered in the Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Bruins, scoring just two goals in a four-game sweep by Boston. Most alarmingly, offense was thought to be the only thing the Pens had going for it entering the series, as a cavalcade of Marc-Andre Fleury errors for the second straight postseason planted thoughts of a buyout in some fans' minds (and gave the team a goalie battle to decide in camp between Fleury and Tomas Vokoun).
The electric duo of Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin remain this team's cornerstones, but two players cannot win a Cup by themselves, and the Penguins need to ensure the right supporting cast is in place (particularly in goal) if they are to repeat the 2009 success that now seems so, so long ago.
Trending up: F Evgeni Malkin
Last season: 11.8 GVT | VUKOTA projection: 15.1

Baru fabricated issues: PMO
The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) on Saturday hit back at former advisor to the Prime Minister, Sanjaya Baru, for saying PM Manmohan Singh surrendered to the pressure from Congress president Sonia Gandhi and allies.
"Baru has taken advantage of his former position. He has fabricated a lot of issues in his book. In a press meeting last October, the PM himself had warned that Baru should not be believed," Communications Adviser to the PMO, Pankaj Pachauri, was quoted as saying in media.
In his book 'The Accidental Prime Minister', Baru has written that Singh was "defanged" by the Congress in his second term with Sonia, deciding over key appointments to the Cabinet and to the PMO.
Baru also wrote that Singh seemed to "surrender" to her and to the allies.
"Bit by bit, in the space of a few weeks he was defanged. He thought he could induct the ministers he wanted into his team. Sonia nipped that hope in the bud by offering the finance portfolio to Pranab (Mukherjee), without even consulting him," Baru has written in the book.
Baru has also quoted the PM in page number 301 of the book, published by Penguin, as telling him: "That creates confusion. I have to accept that the party president is the centre of power. The government is answerable to the party."
In 2004, Sanjaya Baru left a career as chief editor of the Financial Express to join Prime Minister Manmohan Singh as his media adviser in United Progressive Alliance (UPA).

Make jam target make sence
Jam target does not jam target, this skill is only useful on your own, becuase if you jam a target you just make it shoot your teamate which can end up disasterous if they happen to be in already bad shape.
call it "hey shoot that guy" or "Grief the almost dead guy" Or something that makes it what it is. OR atleast call it "confuse targeting sensors" Or best yet, make it ACTUALLY JAM the enemy. |
It can end up being very useful on a team.
What if you are an escort or science vessel who is getting hammered by something while your cruiser teammate is sitting there plinking away with no one firing on him? Jam sensors and hope they target him instead. The use of placate and aggro dump type powers is well established in MMO's |
It's best to call out when you are using it, so you can warn others they are going to get more incoming fire. When you use it alone one ship versus one ship, it's as useful as viral matrix. They won't be able to do anything for 10 seconds. |
actually i should add that it isnt always good on your own aswell, i had a defend mission and couldnt warrant using the skill last thing i want is enemy switching targets when your suposed to be protecting.
Like i said either rename it or make it work like you think it should :P |
I don't really see your problem. If you jam his sensor so he can't target you, of course he will find another target. So would you. Yes, it's not always the smartest thing to do, but I'm not sure we really want to idiot proof every skill.
Jam target is especially useful in PvP. Have a nasty BoP or escort in your side? Jam him and be rid of him while you finish your work with your real target.
Yeah like i said im fine with the skill, but im saying it shouldnt be called jam target, CAUSE YOUR NOT JAMMING IT!!, if you were jamming it, it wouldnt be able to target ANYTHING.
I dunno maybee its just from years of EVE that i think this way |

The Android 4.2 update for HTC One has been rumored for a long, long time. HTC had confirmed that this update was coming, they didn't exactly give a specific release time-frame. Last week the update rolled out first for the dual SIM variant in China, it then rolled out for the conventional variant in Taiwan. Since then the update is being pushed to different markets at a controlled pace. Many features of this update have been rumored in the past, but now we finally know exactly what improvements and enhancements HTC One Android 4.2 update comes bearing.
At this time lock screen widget support is only limited to one, there's support for Daydream screen saver as well as quick settings toggles. Screenshots can be shared instantly, power saver option has been moved from the notification bar and new Highlights video templates have been added. The update also integrates Instagram in BlinkFeed. Google Now can be accessed by swiping up from the home key, this is similar to how it is accessed on stock Android. There's also an option of removing the black bar that shows up in some apps, it can be re-mapped for activation through a long press of the home key. It can't be said right now when carrier versions of this update will be rolled out to end users.

Edgar Wallace's classic vigilante detective series, The Four Just Men - four wealthy and resourceful individuals determined to take the law into their own hands - has maintained its popularity for over a century.Biografie
Geboren wurde Edgar Wallace 1875 als unehelicher Sohn eines Schauspielers. Er wuchs in armen Verhältnissen auf, blieb ohne Schulabschluss und schlug sich mit Gelegenheitsjobs durch. Schließlich begann er kleine Artikel für Zeitungen zu schreiben. Mit Erfolg: Er arbeitete sich hoch bis zum Chefredakteur. Später lebte er als freier Schriftsteller und schrieb Sachbücher, Gedichte und Theaterstücke, 1904 schließlich seinen ersten Krimi; das Debüt einer beispiellosen Karriere. Edgar Wallace verfasste 175 Romane, 24 Theaterstücke, eine große Anzahl von Kurzgeschichten, Essays, Zeitungs- und Zeitschriftenartikeln und Drehbüchern. Die Filme, die nach seinen Vorlagen gedreht wurden, sind kaum zu zählen. Edgar Wallace verstarb hoch verschuldet 1932 in Hollywood.- Tracklisting

Every year around this time, I get in the mood for listening to old standards – Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Bing Crosby and the like. It's kind of a sentimental thing, because that was the music my husband and I used to listen to back in the early days of our courtship, which in our case began in November of 2004. I was a first-year doctoral student at Cornell, and he was in the final stages of that same program. Exactly one year later he flew back from his teaching post at the Universi…

The name for the default communicator is MPI_COMM_WORLD. I want it to be mpicomm in my program. How do I set the communicator to the name I want?
Note, that my program is already working using this variable name, 'mpicomm', but I never actually told the program that that should be the name of the communicator. I guess the value of MPI_COMM_WORLD is 0 and so is 'mpicomm' when I run the program. But I don't want this to be working due to a fluke.
For example:
program main
use mpi
implicit none
integer :: mpierr, mpicomm, rank
call MPI_Init(mpierr)
call MPI_Comm_rank(mpicomm,rank,mpierr)
call MPI_Finalize(mpierr)
end program main
This works, and rank comes out to the correct value; however, I don't think this is going to work if MPI_COMM_WORLD happens to be some value besides zero.

Battle for the 'Golden Tallis' lights up season's end
by russell eisenman, j. correspondent
Follow j. on | and |
It's passion, energy and spirit mixed with aggression, rivalries and fun. It's the battle for the Golden Tallis, the girls and boys basketball games between Kehillah Jewish High School in Palo Alto and the Jewish Community High School of the Bay in San Francisco.
This year's Golden Tallis games are scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 10 at the Oshman Family JCC in Palo Alto — with the girls tipping off at 11:30 a.m. followed by the boys at 1 p.m.
The Golden Tallis trophy is the reward. There are two of them, one for the boys and one for the girls, and each stands 3 feet high and has a golden tallis wrapped around it.
"These are really good, hard fought, competitive games," said Tim Kjar, the JCHS boys head coach and athletic director. "All the games against Kehillah are really close. They can go either way."
JCHS, which opened in September 2001, and Kehillah, which opened the following fall, play in the same league, which means their basketball teams meet twice per season. But only the second meeting — which is often the final game of the season for both teams — is designated as the Golden Tallis Game.
The squads just met, on Jan. 27 in Daly City, and perhaps in a foreshadowing of what's to come on Golden Tallis Sunday, JCHS won both matchups, 48-38 in the boys game and 40-33 in the girls game.
"We were very flat, and as a result, they made some plays in the second half that got them the win," said Ed Campbell, the first-year boys coach at Kehillah. "We have to play with the same intensity level and the same team spirit level that JCHS played with [on Jan. 27]. We were out-hustled and disappointed in our performance because we didn't match them."
Often, the lead-up to the Golden Tallis games is just as intense as the games themselves. Both schools have pep rallies during the week, and posters and announcements are put up all over the schools. The result is usually an energetic, packed gym of a few hundred people.
"This is a great event for both schools," said Jenny Circle, co-head coach of the Kehillah girls team. "It's a great tradition and our students get really fired up for it."
The JCHS boys team is led by senior Anthony Gumberg, who scored 25 points in his team's Jan. 27 victory and averages more than 17 points per game for the playoff-bound Wolves. Kehillah, which is not advancing into the postseason, counters with Braden Katzman, last year's Golden Tallis Game MVP.
But this game is about more than three-pointers and zone defenses.
"This game is special to the kids given that the schools are similar with their philosophical basis," Campbell said. "One of the reasons the players are attending each school is for the Jewish culture, which increases the rivalry. It is definitely a big game."
Kjar, who has coached JCHS in the Golden Tallis Game since its inception in 2007, agrees.
"It's very cool when both schools are brought together to compete," he said. "A lot of these kids know each other through summer camps or programs and have played on Maccabi teams together. It's a good, competitive, friendly rivalry."
"You can always count on this to be a game that comes down to the wire," Circle said. "This is just a really great rivalry that we have going on. You really see both teams play at the top of their game. It's a really fun game to coach. It can be stressful at times, but always fun."
Golden Tallis Game, Sunday, Feb. 10 at the Oshman Family Jewish JCC, 3921 Fabian Way, Palo Alto. Girls game at 11:30 a.m., boys game at 1 p.m. Free.

Trial to decide fate of Warhol portrait of Fawcett
Los Angeles • Andy Warhol's artwork has always grabbed attention and sparked discussion, but one of his portraits of Farrah Fawcett is about to receive scrutiny of a different kind in a Los Angeles courtroom.
The case centers on a relatively simple question: does one of Warhol's depictions of Fawcett belong to her longtime lover, Ryan O'Neal, or should it join its twin at her alma mater, the University of Texas at Austin?
To decide the case, jurors will hear testimony and see evidence focused on Warhol and O'Neal's friendship, his relationship with Fawcett and the actress' final wishes. The panel will likely get insight into Warhol's creation of the Fawcett image, which was based on a Polaroid photo the artist took of the "Charlie's Angels" star in 1980.
The image, one of the main attractions in a 2011 exhibit on portraiture at UT's Blanton Museum of Art, features an unsmiling Fawcett looking out from the canvas. Warhol painted her lips red and her eyes green in an otherwise uncolored image.
Jury selection in the trial is expected to begin this week, with O'Neal and possibly Fawcett's "Charlie's Angels" co-star Jaclyn Smith taking the witness stand. The case resumes on Wednesday, when lawyers will argue what evidence will be admitted during the trial, which is expected to take two weeks.
Fawcett decreed in her will that all her artwork go to the school, yet O'Neal insists that Warhol gave him a copy of the portrait as a gift and it belongs to him.
Warhol's art continues to garner attention and high prices. His painting of the immediate aftermath of a car crash sold for $105 million at auction last week, although the value of his Fawcett portrait is at dispute in the case. Estimates range from $600,000 to more than $10 million, according to filings in the case.
University of Texas' lawyers contend O'Neal improperly removed the portrait from Fawcett's condominium after her 2009 death. The Oscar-nominated actor had the artwork moved there to prevent it from being damaged by the salty air at his beachside home and had the right to retrieve it, his lawyers argue.
O'Neal has countersued the university, seeking the return of a cloth napkin that Warhol drew hearts on and gave as a gift to Fawcett and the actor.
"It is a precious memento of his life with Ms. Fawcett, the love of his life, with whom he was romantically involved for 30 years up until the time of her death," O'Neal's lawyers wrote in a trial brief. "Because O'Neal's Warhol portrait is an heirloom, he never intends to, nor will sell it."
The university says the case is about honoring Fawcett's final wishes.
"We simply want to honor and respect the charitable intent and wishes of Farrah Fawcett," UT's Vice Chancellor for External Relations Randa S. Safady wrote in a statement. "It is indisputable that in Ms. Fawcett's living trust, she named the University of Texas at Austin as the sole beneficiary of all of her works of art, including artwork she created and all objects of art that she owned, for charitable purposes."
Court fights over assets frequently occur and are likely to increase as people gain greater understanding of their rights in estate cases, said Bradford Cohen, an estate and tax attorney in Venable LLC's Los Angeles office.
"What comes up a lot in the estate area is that it's not clear what the intentions of the deceased were and what the deceased owned," Cohen said. "These things get slugged out a lot in litigation."
Despite Fawcett's notoriety and interest in her and O'Neal's relationship, Cohen said the case really centers on a basic question, "What did she own and where did she want it to go to?"

Domestic Spending
Sharpening the Axe: How the House and Senate Budgets Handle the Sequester
With the Murray-Ryan deal expiring at the end of September, the sequester will once again be a hot topic as lawmakers will be prompted to deal with the discretionary spending reductions it prescribes. Despite the House and Senate being controlled by the same party, their budgets take very different approaches to the sequester. The two budgets have large differences in the amount of defense and non-defense discretionary spending and slight differences in their approach to war spending. Although both only get a small portion of their deficit reduction from discretionary spending, the two budgets get there in different ways. In addition, the Senate budget provides a more realistic method for a future sequester relief deal, by establishing a deficit-neutral reserve fund for that purpose.
Both budgets abide by the sequester levels for non-war spending for FY 2016, although they would also effectively raise defense spending by creating a $38 billion slush fund in war spending so that their total defense requests equal the President's budget, which instead provides sequester relief through the normal channel, offset with other savings. After 2016, the budgets would remove the slush fund and make changes to the cap themselves.

Heritage Foundation Publishes Budget Book of Proposed Spending Cuts
Last week, the Heritage Foundation released the Budget Book, a catalog of 106 ways to cut the budget or reduce the size of government totaling roughly $3.9 trillion in ten-year savings. (However, Heritage notes that the total does not include interactions from enacting multiple proposals.) Here are a few highlights:
- 65 percent of the cuts proposed are from a single item – capping spending on means-tested programs at 110 percent of pre-recession levels and growing that amount with inflation. Heritage estimates that this could save $2.7 trillion over the next decade. Heritage does not provide any details about which programs to cut, leaving it up to "policymakers to direct welfare spending to the areas of greatest priority."
- Limiting Highway Trust Fund spending to existing revenue would result in about $180 billion in savings. Since transportation spending would be reduced, "states or private sector [could] take over the other activities if they value them."
- Repealing the Davis-Bacon Act would reduce spending by $86 billion over the next ten years, by Heritage's estimate. The Act requires federally funded construction projects to pay "prevailing wages" based on the project's location. However, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that this would save less than $12 billion. We mentioned this as an option to reduce highway spending in our paper last year, Trust or Bust: Fixing the Highway Trust Fund.
- Ending Supplementary Security Income (SSI) benefits for children would save $125 billion. Heritage would instead direct SSI toward disabled adults and seniors, and only keep the children's payments for medical expenses that Medicaid does not cover.
- Other proposals would end Head Start, higher education programs, and job training programs, resulting in $170 billion in education and training services cuts.
The Case for "Mindful Austerity"
In a commentary published on Monday, the Wall Street Journal's Greg Ip wrote about President Obama's budget and the declaration that it is moving away from "mindless austerity." He approached the question of when, if ever, is a good time to implement austerity measures when deficits get too large.
Ip explains that there are two aspects of deficit spending – "structural" and "cyclical" – with the former referring to long-term differences between revenues and outlays and the latter to weak economic conditions that push up spending and lower revenue automatically.
The President's budget predicts the economy to be back at full capacity by 2017, meaning the cyclical portion of the deficit should be at or near zero. Ip points out this would be the best time to address the structural portion and put debt on a declining path. Although the President's FY 2016 budget stabilizes debt as a share of GDP, the debt is barely declining under its projections.
Are the Discretionary Spending Caps Sustainable?
The biggest piece of deficit reduction that lawmakers have accomplished so far is the series of caps on annually appropriated discretionary spending through 2021. The Budget Control Act specified spending caps that would reduce spending by more than $750 billion over ten years. It also put in place a sequester which would further reduce those caps by roughly $90 billion per year if the Super Committee did not agree on $1.2 trillion of deficit reduction. The Super Committee did indeed fail, and the sequester went into effect in March 2013. After partial sequester relief in 2014 and 2015, the discretionary cuts will return in full force in fiscal year (FY) 2016. As a result, discretionary spending will fall to a record low share of GDP in ten years.
With the sequester hanging over the appropriations process, the Brookings Institution held an event last week discussing the sustainability of these caps. The event brought together a panel of four experts with different perspectives on the caps, including:
- Robert Hale, Former Under Secretary for Defense (Comptroller) and Senior Fellow at Booz Allen Hamilton
- Ron Haskins, Senior Fellow of Economic Studies at Brookings
- Michael O' Hanlon, Foreign Policy Director of Research at Brookings
- Alice Rivlin, former Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) director and Senior Fellow of Economic Studies at Brookings
Top 14 Charts About the Budget in 2014
This year was an eventful one for the federal budget. To explain the year's events, CRFB wrote 427 blogs, 17 papers, and created more than a hundred charts. Below are some of our favorite charts that represent the budget events of 2014.
1. Debt scheduled to reach record levels only seen around WWII within 25 years
Our long-term debt problem remains unsolved, despite some commentators' claims that the debt is not worth worrying about. For instance, economist Paul Krugman said not to worry because the debt in 25 years will only reach the levels we had in World War II. In Actually, Paul, the Debt is Still a Problem, we showed how returning to World War II levels of debt is actually quite alarming. Not only will debt levels be too high, but they are projected to keep rising upwards, without a sharp decline like the 1950s.
2. 2014 deficit decreased by 66%, but only after an 800% rise
September marked the end of the 2014 fiscal year, and saw year-end deficits fall to their lowest level since the Great Recession. Some claimed victory over the debt and urged moving onto other issues. In our report, Deficit Falls to $483 Billion, but Debt Continues to Rise, we showed that these low deficits are nothing to celebrate. In dollar terms, the deficit may have decreased by 66 percent, but that was after it had risen by almost 800 percent during the Great Recession. Moreover, debt remains at a post-WWII record high, and trillion-dollar deficits are likely to return within a decade.
3. Debt is worse if Congress does not pay for changes
These debt projections assume that Congress will be fiscally responsible and pay for all new legislation. However, if they stick to the all-too-common practice of continuing various policies or enacting new ones without offsetting the cost, the debt situation could be almost 10 percent of GDP worse, as this animated chart from Everything You Need to Know About Budget Gimmicks shows.
Lame Duck To-Do (and Don't) List
With the 2014 midterm elections mostly in the books, the current Congress will return from weeks of campaigning to finish some remaining items before the end of the year and the swearing in of the new Congress. This year's lame duck session will likely to be less busy than some years, but there are still a few key things to get done before the 114th Congress begins.
Enact Appropriations
The current continuing resolution funding the government will expire on December 11, so policymakers will have to either extend it, enact appropriations bills, or cause a shutdown. This is the most important to-do list item for the lame duck Congress. Prior to the recess, appropriators indicated they wanted to get an omnibus appropriations bill done instead of a CR extending funding into the next Congress, and the chances of that look good -- thanks to the Murray-Ryan agreement setting defense and non-defense spending levels, House and Senate funding allocations are relatively close. Key questions that remain include whether lawmakers will provide supplemental funding for Ebola or ISIS and also what level of war spending they will provide (hopefully below the current level -- see "to-don't" list below).
For background on the appropriations process, see our Appropriations 101 document.
Pass Defense Authorization
Somewhat related to appropriations, lawmakers will also have to pass a defense authorization bill. For the budget world, this may be important to see if Congress will consider codifying a strict definition of war spending -- as the House budget resolution and an amendment to the House defense appropriations bill did -- or consider personnel savings policies that the Pentagon has long called for. Doing either of those things may help policymakers stay within the defense spending caps in the future and better ensure the integrity of those caps.
Coburn Publishes Wastebook 2014
Year after year, Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) refuses to simply give lip service to "wasteful government spending" and has instead called out controversial government spending by name. Today, his office published the fifth annual edition of his Wastebook, detailing 100 examples of what he describes as "stupid spending," totaling almost $25 billion. The Wastebook looks at little-used government programs, unusual research projects funded by government grants, and tax breaks given to companies to compile these examples.
As Senator Coburn explained,
This report, the fifth annual Wastebook, gives a snapshot of just a fraction of the countless frivolous projects the government funded in the past twelve months with borrowed money and your tax dollars. Every year taxpayers, regardless of their personal political leanings, raise their eyebrows and shake their heads in disbelief at how billions of dollars that could be been better spent—or not spent at all—were squandered. Then they ask, "but what are you doing about it?"
Some of the spending examples highlighted in his report are:
- Paid vacations for bureaucrats gone wild—$19 million: Many situations that would cause private-sector employers to fire their employees instead results in federal employees going on "administrative leave." Most of these situations can be described as personnel matters such as criminal investigations, misconduct and security concerns. GAO estimates that the paid leave costs the government about $19 million.
- Pentagon to spend $1 billion to destroy $16 billion in unneeded ammunition—$1 billion: The Pentagon is spending a billion dollars to destroy $16 billion in excessive purchases of military-grade ammunition. The amount of surplus ammunition is now so large that the cost of destroying it will equal the full years' salary for over 54,000 Army privates. How the military came to purchase so much ammunition it didn't need was uncovered in a 2014 Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigation.
- FAA upgrades low traffic airport serving high-end ski resort—$18 million: The Federal Aviation Administration awarded $18 million dollars for a construction project at an airport that serves a ski and golf resort in Idaho. There are on average four daily commercial flights leaving the airport. Construction was to include "comfortable chairs and a fireplace."
- DOD sends 16 planes to the scrap heap for $32,000—$468 million: After spending over $468 million on a fleet of 20 planes that were supposed to be the backbone of the Afghan Air Force's air transport mission, the Defense Department scrapped 16 of those planes as opposed to selling or dispatching them for their purpose.

CBO: GSE Reform Saves $58 Billion (Or $7 Billion)
One of the bills to replace Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and overhaul the housing finance system just got a verdict from CBO: it will save $58 billion under the current budget rules for scoring credit programs. The bill, the Housing Finance Reform and Taxpayer Protection Act of 2014 (S. 1217), passed the Senate Banking Committee in May by a 13-9 vote, with both bipartisan support and opposition.
Fannie and Freddie have drawn the ire of some policymakers after the federal government placed them into conservatorship and infused hundreds of billions of dollars to rescue them during the heart of the financial crisis. However, after a change in the terms of the agreement that required the two government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) to pay their net worth back to the federal government each quarter, the situation has reversed: Fannie and Freddie have brought in an estimated $200 billion for the Treasury in the past two years alone. Still, lawmakers are concerned about the inherent instability of the current arrangement and the potential risk to taxpayers if the housing market turns down again.
S. 1217 would replace Fannie and Freddie by 2020 with a new Federal Mortgage Insurance Corporation (FMIC), which would provide mortgage guarantees funded by fees.
Can Lawmakers Agree on Postal Reform?
The Postal Service has been losing money in recent years and has needed to cut back on services and raise stamp prices. However, these latest reductions are setting off a squabble among lawmakers. After USPS announced plans to consolidate 82 mail processing centers in 2015 and shed 15,000 jobs, 50 mostly Democratic senators sent a letter to the Senate Appropriations Committee and Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee chairs and ranking members asking them to postpone the reductions for one year and return mail delivery standards back to where they were in July 2012 to buy time for postal reform. Senate Homeland Security and Government Committee Chairman Tom Carper (D-DE) responded with a statement arguing that the best way to address these concerns would be for Congress to enact reforms to fix the financial challenges facing the Postal Service. But are lawmakers close to an agreement?
The answer is unclear. Both the House and Senate have produced bills with similar elements, but they have different emphases when it comes to stemming USPS's flow of red ink.
