Fireworks displays have been shown across the globe today as many countries have already started 2013 off with a bang-literally. Fireworks are one of the most popular New Year's traditions, and if you're thinking about setting off your own instead of watching a professional show, there are some things you need to know. Greg Chatham of Greg's Fireworks and Sr. Firefighter Gerald Mabry with the Meridian Fire Department both say to follow the instructions on the package and to have safety equipment ready.
"Always have close adult supervision. Make sure that there's a parent out there watching them. Just be careful. Consumer fireworks can be a lot of fun and they can be really safe."
"You should always have a water hose handy, or some source of water in case brush catches on fire so you can put it out."
With the recent heavy rains, and showers in the forecast for tonight, Chatham says that sales have still been about average, but Mabry hopes that the wet weather will make it a slow night for the fire department.
"In the firework business you do 80% of your business on New Year's Eve, so as long as the rain will hold off until midnight, right now I think they're giving it a 30% chance, we're hoping for the 70% chance that it doesn't rain until after midnight."
Setting off fireworks inside the city limits of Meridian is not allowed under city ordinance, but if you are in an area that allows fireworks and you start a fire or are injured, first responders don't want you to hesitate to call 911.

Property tax in trans-Yamuna area is likely to go up with East Delhi Municipal Corporation today proposing an increase of property valuation by 1.6 times and imposing education cess and betterment tax on it.
In its budget for the next fiscal, the EDMC also proposed professional tax and electricity tax on power generators of five KW and above and new parking fee rates on minute basis to augment its coffers.
Though no increase in property tax was proposed in his budget speech, EDMC commissioner Sajjan Singh Yadav said there was a need for revising the valuation of property and proposed that in all the 8 categories of residential properties, the valuation be increased by 1.6 times.
He also proposed a five per education cess and ten per cent betterment tax on property tax. An amount of Rs 11 crore is expected from this cess during the next financial year and Rs 22 crore from betterment tax.
"The value of the properties is getting increased due to infrastructure development, modern transport facilities and regularisation of colonies. It is proposed to levy 10 per cent of the property tax as betterment tax," he said.
An EDMC official, while explaining the new process, said that one has to pay Rs 12 for a property valued at Rs 12 as property tax for category A and B.
"But if the proposal of increasing the valuation of property is accepted, the value of property will rise to Rs 160 and one will have to pay Rs 19.20 as tax. One will also have to pay five per cent education cess and 10 per cent betterment tax on Rs 19.20. So the residents end up paying Rs 22.80 in entirety if the new proposals are increased," he said. In effect the proposal if passed, the property tax will come to around 22.8 per cent.
Unveiling a new parking fee regime, EDMC also proposed new minute based car parking rates, which includes 50 per cent additional charges in peak hours between 5 pm to 9 pm.
According to EDMC proposals, car owners may have to shell out Rs 10 for parking a car for half an hour, Rs 20 from 30 mins to one hour, from the one to third hour car owners need to shell out Rs 50 and after three hours Rs 20 will be added to every additional hour. Earlier, car parking rates were Rs 10 for 10 hours.

"Only God Forgives," Nicolas Winding Refn's latest collaboration with Ryan Gosling, just let out in Cannes this morning and the conversations on Twitter are heated and polarizing. There's either love or loathing in the air and not a lot in between. Many are remarking that it's similar in tone to Refn and Gosling's last team-up in "Drive." This stands to reason as Gosling himself told us earlier in the year, "It's very extreme. It's part of the same dream as 'Drive,' but it's more of a nightmare than a dream... So that's what happens when you let Nicolas loose in Thailand. There's no one around to put the reins on and he's completely unleashed."
Our reviewer was somewhat in the middle, giving it a B-grade and noting that it "stretches Refn's neon-noir style over too little oedipal, amoral substance" (for a counterpoint take it should be noted that Playlister Kevin Jagernauth apparently loved it). Either way, it's the talk of Cannes at the moment both in the online and terrestrial space. The press conference -- sadly without Gosling's presence -- just let out at the Croisette as well. With Refn, Kristin Scott Thomas and producers in tow, the director let loose, letting his sometimes hilarious, often insightful discussions about his various freak flag fetishes out in the air. One things for sure. Refn doesn't need a therapist, that's what movies and press conferences talking about those movies are for. Here's 9 highlights.
The film began as an idea about a man who wanted to fight god and that quickly morphed into the movie it is now: a crime thriller about an exiled gangster living in Bangkok who's compelled to avenge his brother's death by his wicked mother. Refn said to secure his financing he simply had to pitch an idea before he had a story so he thought, "a fight movie set in Thailand, because I thought that was going to be an easy sell and they bought it."
Refn then went on to write the script and noted he wasn't really a fan of fight films ironically. "I was going through a very existentialistic time," he said. "My wife was pregnant with our second daughter and it had been a very difficult period. And there was a lot of anger and violence in me, but I didn't know how to channel it out, but I thought if someone has answers to existential problems, it must be God. I challenge you."
"So I came up with this mother character that devours everything. And so it really became more of a mother and son story. But the key to unfold that story was this character who believes he's God (Chang played by Vithaya Pansringarm)." Refn had cast the movie with Kristin Scott Thomas and Luke Evans in the lead part, but decided to make "Drive" instead. "The day after Cannes, this unknown actor drops out of my movie to to go do 'The Hobbit,'" Refn said throwing some shade Evans' way. "So it was like 'fuck,' but I was in L.A. then and Ryan said [with a shrug], 'I'll do it,' so I was like, 'Great!'"
"Then we went to Thailand and there I had the real experience about making the film in terms of wanting to make something about mysticism and reality. It really came down to when our daughter was born she had the ability to see ghosts," he said. "We were in an apartment in Bangkok and she kept up screaming and pointing to the wall. I called the Thai production manager and said, 'I believe there's a ghost in our house.' If I did that in Europe I would be crucified, but here she said, "Oh, ok," and she came by a half an hour later with a Shaman who cleansed the room. But I really realized that spirituality, mysticism and reality has a different meaning in Asia and that's when I realized that's the kind of movie I wanted to make.
Like "Drive," the film's lead is taciturn and Refn spoke about virtues of "the language of silence."
"The idea of the Julian [Ryan Gosling] character was a man who was on a journey, but he didn't know what he was moving towards," Refn explained. "Ryan and I talked a lot about the concept of the sleepwalker, which is a very mythological creature, and that he is destined to move, but doesn't know where he's going. So we realized that he's, of course, bound to the chains of his mother's womb and that's his curse. And so in order for him to release that he needs to go through certain levels of violence."
So how does one play that idea? Gosling himself asked the director, "What do I say?" Refn said, "Maybe the language of silence is much more stronger and interesting and poetic and it helps us to make a film where it's not where we ask, 'what are you?,' but more, 'what are you not?'" And so that [suggested] that we had to have subliminal images all the way through. Then it became monologues from Kristin Scott Thomas or dialogues from the Thai actors, but it kind of added some off dimension things all seemed real, but there was an unrealness."
Kristin Scott Thomas had no problem turning on her "bitch switch." She also curses like a Stevedore in the film.
"I hope we never will [hear it] again," Thomas said about a line in the film where her character compares her two son's... manhood that contains a lot of f-bombs and foul language. "A lot of the language that happens appeared while we were shooting it. If it was written and prepared the way in advance, I think it would have been terrified, but the confidence that was building between all of us allowed us to go beyond these taboos things and break certain barriers. It was all a bit mad, really."
And yes, it's a big gear shift for the actress who usually plays someone more aristocratic. "When I first read the script I was quite excited about playing someone away from the upper class thing that English people seem to love to see me in," she said. "But as it developed, the character became more and more despicable."
"She had no problem turning on the bitch switch," Nicolas Winding Refn interjected with a laugh. "It's frighteningly easy," she laughed. "Every day we got braver. What's worse?"

Houseplant for the holidays: Norfolk Island pine
- by April Demes
- Nov 22, 2012
- Comments
Have you seen them yet?
They show up every year right about now, with glossy bright green foliage that could capture the heart of any gardener entering GSW (Growing Season Withdrawal). Looking for all the world like miniature, limey-er Christmas trees, Norfolk Island pines are often sold in pots in North America, though back home in the South Pacific they grow to be proper, full-on trees. Not a true pine, Araucaria heterophylla has softer 'needles' and a somewhat droopy habit reminiscent of cedars or–dare I say it–palm trees. Its unique blend of familiar and exotic elements, combined with its sheer aliveness whilst everything else is going to sleep, make it an easy sell at the Walmart checkout.
I, in my short but illustrious career, have already killed two. One succumbed to either too much water or too little light, the other I'm quite certain disapproved of the cold draft it got every time someone opened the front door. My sister kept one out of drafts, in bright, indirect light, with infrequent watering, and it lived for ages as one of the happiest, loveliest houseplants you could wish for.
I am determined to try again. Third time's the charm?

Without even trying. Usually the life of my houseplants veers sharply in the other direction–towards the death side of things. But in my wee violet pot, a baby was born. My question is, how do I take it out to repot it without damaging the roots?

It's not often that gardening is chosen as a topic to be portrayed in main stream media. That's why I was thrilled to watch this video clip from Saturday Night Live. Christopher Walken stars in this short comedy sketch. He's the host of a fictional gardening show 'Indoor Gardening Tips from a Man Who is Very Scared of Plants.' To help ease his fear of plants, he glues googly eyes on all his houseplants. If you're in the mood for a chuckle, I highly recommend you watch this video clip!
Houseplant vacation
- by Anja Sonnenberg

With the nights getting colder, I thought it was time to bring my houseplants indoors. I don't want to risk my 25 year old ficus (Ficus benjamina) and other tropical plants from getting a chill.
Each spring I go through the routine of moving them outside to enjoy a breath of fresh air. They thrive during the summer with all the sunlight. The rain waters them and washes all the dust of the leaves. I've never had a problem with any insect infestations, but to make sure I don't bring any bugs into the house, I give each plant a bath at the end of their vacation. I use a spray bottle with water and a tiny bit of liquid dish soap to coat the leaves, stems, and branches. I gently wash the leaves, and then rinse the plant with the garden hose. Some of the plants need a trim after enjoying a summer growth spurt, especially my ficus. If I don't trim the upper branches, I can't get in through the door.
Just like the rest of us, some of the plants have a hard time adjusting to life after a relaxing vacation. A few leaves may turn yellow and drop and their growth slows, but for the most part they all transition well. I'm sure my houseplants enjoy fond memories of warm summer days as winter approaches and dream of the day when they'll be able to enjoy their next vacation on the deck when spring comes again.
Window dressing
My kitchen has a little breakfast room with a skylight and a big sliding door overlooking the garden. Apart from that there's just one window, with a panoramic view of my neighbour's brick wall and into their kitchen window.
Rather than create privacy with curtains or shutters, I fill the deep sill with a motley assortment of plants. This has the same effect and gives both of us something nice and green to look at year-round.
My kitchen window faces north, so the light isn't terrific for sun-lovers, but less fussy plants survive just fine. So what grows there at the moment? In the black, wrought-iron pedestal pot is a 'River Nile' begonia–a showy beauty whose leaves have maroon-coloured edges. Next to it on the right is a slipper orchid that has quadrupuled in size and has bloomed twice for me–it really needs to be transplanted, but I'm not that confident with orchids so I've been putting it off. And to the right of that is a crown of thorns (Euphorbia milii), which has grown quite tall and rangy because it would really, really appreciate more light, thank you. Even so, it does manage to push out a few red blooms from time to time, so good for it.
At the back left is a coffee plant that was sent to me some 18 months ago. This hasn't grown too much, but at least it hasn't died. (Still, I don't think I'll be grinding homegrown beans anytime soon.) Next to it and partially hidden from view is a floppy aloe vera, always a must in my kitchen because I often singe my arm or burn a finger as I'm pulling stuff out of the oven. I simply break off a bit of the plant and rub its sap on the ow-ow, which immediately soothes it.
Alongside these and thankfully hidden from view is a truly scraggly looking bit of lucky bamboo rooting in water. This was also sent to me and though I really should, I'm just too darned superstitious to put it in the compost. Last but not least, in the front left is a sulky African violet I'm nursing along. My house really doesn't have great light for African violets, but I'm ever hopeful and keep buying them anyway.
What's growing on your windowsill?

Circuit Description:
This circuit generates a sine wave and a cosine wave. It combines two integrators. Since the integral of a sine is a negative cosine, and the integral of a cosine is a sine, we can generate both waves by feeding the output of each integrator into the input of the other.

NEW DELHI: Against the backdrop of allegations of spot-fixing during IPL matches, Union Minister Ajay Maken today said the BCCI - the national governing body for cricket in India - should come under the ambit of the RTI Act.
"BCCI should agree to come under RTI. Any organisation entrusted with job of selecting a National Team can not call itself a Private Body!," Maken, who till recently held the Sports portfolio, twitted.

I mentioned recently how much I love to travel with my wife, Lindsey. We take a big trip each year and are lucky to have Bryan always send us off in style: with a film camera, a quick tutorial and some rolls. Please keep in mind, I'm a designer by trade, not a photographer. I would be more comfortable capturing a trip with my iPhone than with a fully manual film camera. But Bryan's encouragement to use film, even as a novice, has provided a different kind of connection to the environments we are experiencing. Film slows us down, removes our "need to share" and opens us up creatively. It allows us to capture our surroundings with great intention and artfulness.
This weekend Lindsey and I will take a trip to celebrate our 5th anniversary. Bryan insisted that I try documenting this trip with his Leica M6. Shooting with it will be a highlight of our trip and the developed film will feel like an anniversary gift to us.
We are developing a new program for A Bryan Photo clients that will allow them to rent film cameras, receive a tutorial and experience the joys of film. We are calling the offering Snapshots and would be thrilled to tell you more if interested.

The spot is titled Ocean.
A just-released, 60-second campaign commercial from Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney (left) talks about America's children and his belief that they are swimming in an ocean of drugs, Internet porn and media violence. From Romney's voice-over:
I'm deeply troubled about the culture that surrounds our kids today… I'd like to see us clean up the water in which our kids are swimming. I'd like to keep pornography from coming up on their computers. I'd like to keep drugs off the street. I'd like to see less violence and sex on TV and in video games and in movies. If we get serious about this we can actually do a great deal to clean up the water in which our kids and grandkids are swimming.
The campaign of Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS) wasted no time in attacking the Romney TV spot, painting the former Massachusetts governor as a latecomer to the culture wars – and a hypocrite:
In a move rich with irony, Mitt Romney's presidential campaign released a new television advertisement decrying "the culture that surrounds our kids today," despite the fact that Romney served on the board of Marriott International, which generated tens of millions of dollars in revenue through in-room pornography services at its hotels.
In stark contrast with Romney's role at Marriott, which brought him over $100,000 per year, Senator Sam Brownback lead the fight against indecency and asked the hotel chain to stop offering pornography in its rooms.
Senator Brownback has been a leader on decency and media issues… Despite facing intense industry opposition, Brownback has worked to strengthen video game ratings standards and to study the impact of media on childhood development.
Meanwhile, Time's Real Clear Politics blog reports e-mail reaction to the Romney spot running 3-1 against, including this one:
I think the new Romney spot is dreadful. Video game violence? Could he have picked a more small-potatoes topic? …In an election that will decide the future of our Middle East policy, our tax policy, our immigration policy, and — assuming a Supreme Court vacancy — possibly the future of Roe vs. Wade, I find it unfathomable that he wants to talk about sex and violence on television and in video games…

Joshua never had any good Christmases in his entire life. He usually got nothing he wanted or barely anything at all. Living with neglectful parents didn't help the case either. They would always be to busy to help him with his problems, or anything really. He was depressed and just wished to have a good Christmas and be with a loving family like he had dreamed countless times. Joshua was walking around the mall one day, alone. Since he had no friends to cruise with.
"Hmmm, I have enough. I wonder what I should get my Mom and Dad this year." He said to himself window shopping. "Sigh, wonder if i'll get anything but I don't really care. Just wish they were around to spend the holidays with me." Joshua sulked, he had upset himself again and kept window browsing. He was always thoughtful and never thought about himself not even once.
Joshua searched on and on ending up buying his dad a new pair of shoes he wanted while his mom some expensive perfume. "I hope they like this." Joshua said turning to see a woman before him. "Huh?" Joshua said examining her.
The woman's hair was blonde and came down to her shoulders. Her eyes were crystal blue with an innocent face. She had a slim body with D-Cup sized breast and a curvy figure to match. She was in a Mrs.Claus like outfit with the red hat, gloves, and boots to match. She seemed to stare back until she broke the silence.
"Oh excuse me young man." She said, her voice soft and gentle.
Joshua quickly scrambled to his feet. "Oh no, it's my fault." Joshua apologized.
"Oh, tee hee. No need to apologize, you've done nothing wrong, Joshua." She smiled.
"Wa-Wait...How did you know my name?" Joshua asked confused getting himself together.
"Oh, lets just say I know lots of people, including you." She giggled reaching for something from behind her coming back out presenting a pink box with red ribbons on it to Joshua who examined it curiously.
"Whats this for?" Joshua asked looking up to the Woman.
"Oh lets just say, its for you. You've been a good boy all your life Joshua and you deserve better than what you have now." She told him while he took in all the words.
"Uhm...Thanks?" He said looking at it.
"You're welcome." The woman asked walking off before he stopped her.
"Wait, whats you name? I forgot to ask." He said.
"Oh just Mrs. C, for now." She smirked. "Ta ta..." Mrs.C said walking off disappearing into the other Christmas shoppers.
Before Joshua could think his phone let out a loud buzzing. He quickly checked to see it say 7:00 P.M. on the dot. "Oh no!" He shrieked. "I have to get home, its late." Joshua said rushing out of the mall and to his bike which he sped until reaching it. Luckily his parents weren't there, but thinking about it. They wouldn't have cared if he was late anyway so he walked in seeing the poorly decorated Christmas tree in the corner.
"Hmmm." Joshua said walking to it placing there gifts under it then proceeding to walk up to his room with the present he received from Mrs.C, He was still thinking about his encounter with the mysterious woman.
"I wonder whats in it. How did she know my name? I've been good all my life?" Joshua's thoughts were puzzled until he shrugged and decided to open it early since it wasn't from a relative or his parents.
Joshua slowly reached for the gift and slowly untied the ribbon and opened looking inside. "Lets see." Joshua peered inside when a bright flash erupted from the box sending a seemingly shock wave through the house and him. "Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" Joshua shielded his eyes falling to the floor not feeling the wave. "The heck was that?" He said uncovering his eyes and rushing to the bathroom to make sure he was okay.
When Joshua entered the bathroom he looked himself over seeing everything fine. Or so he thoughts. He realized his hair had gotten longer and a dark pink color now in twin tails style as well. Joshua was confused.
"Uhm, what happened to my hair!" His eyes shot wide open while his face slowly morphed becoming softer and innocent freaking him out more. "What!" Joshua fell back while he tried to fight but couldn't as the changes continued changing him.
Joshua crawled back into his room while his shoulders crashed inward and body hair disappeared from his body leaving his skin silky smooth. When he lifted himself up noticed his height had decreased slowly but gradually. "Oh what the heck is happening to me?" Joshua asked himself. "Ngh." Joshua moaned holding his chest which expanded into to two small B-Cup sized breast making Joshua blush.
Joshua sat on the bed trying to calm himself down but it still went on and on. His hands became soft and delicate while he felt something lower begin to tingle. "Oh no...Anything but that." Joshua's fear came true as his manhood receded back in him slowly until only womanhood was left. "Its gone..." Joshua let out a small shriek while his voice shot up into a girly category.
His legs soon found themselves small, smooth, and long while his feet shrunk now small. Joshua noticed he was now fully feminine in his now lose falling off clothes alone in his room. He blushed and covered himself but then his clothes reformed into a smaller red Christmas version that Mrs. C wore.
"Whoa." Joshua blushed looking over herself. "What i'm...A...A..." She began.
"Girl? Yes I know...You turned out cute..." A familiar voice rang from behind causing her to turn seeing Mrs.C standing before him. "Hiya." She smiled.
"Yo-You...You did this? I'm...A girl..." Joshua said.
"I know... It was supposed to do that...You've been such a sweet kid your entire life I just thought it'd be nice you finally can have a better sweeter life." She smiled warmly. "You'll understand once your parents get home." Mrs.C said before she vanished in a bright flash leaving Janice alone.
"Hmmmm, I still can't believe this but i'm....Surprisingly calm..." She said to herself hearing the door from downstairs open. "Oh no..." Janice said leaping into her bed hiding under the covers until...
"Janice dear, were home...." A feminine voice sounded.
"Yes come on down honey..." A deeper manly voice followed.
"Huh?" Janice said nervously getting up walking downstairs seeing a new site new to her.
Janice saw the house was now completely decorated with Christmas lights and ornaments everywhere. Presents filled the brim of the tree and a golden star was on top of it shining making her eyes flutter in awe.
"Wha-What happened here?" Janice looked around.
"What do you mean honey we all decorated this house and the tree." Janice's Mom smiled at her warmly which made Janice tear up a bit.
"Whats wrong dear? You can tell your old man." Her dad chuckled while she ran up and hugged the two.
"Oh nothing, i'm just so happy I get to spend Christmas with you two." Janice smiled wiping her eyes breaking the hug. "Now I see what Mrs.C meant...Now I know who she is." Janice smiled to herself giggling a bit. "I think I like being this way. I'm so happy." She said while her parents looked to each other confused but shrugged and went to her.
"Come on dear, lets go bake some cookies." She said.
"Oh yummy, alright..." Janice happily said noticing a note on the tree which she took a read.
-Hope Your Christmas and Life is only better and better from here... Hope you get used to things... Yours Truly, Mrs.Claus~ P.S you'll be getting your last surprise in 3.2.1.
Suddenly once she finished reading the note it suddenly vanished and Janice felt something soft and warm brushing against her leg while she looked to see a puppy.
"Oh my gosh! A puppy! I've always wanted one." Janice said picking up the puppy petting it. "Thank you Mrs.Claus. I'm forever grateful." Janice smiled setting him down going into the kitchen with her mom while her dad watched the game. This had turned out to be the best and beginning to many more wonderful Christmases and things to happen in Janice's life.

I am implementing MFCC algorithm in Java.
There is a sample code here: http://www.ee.columbia.edu/~dpwe/muscontent/practical/mfcc.m at Matlab. However I have some problems with mel filter banking process. How to generate triangular windows and how to use them?
PS1: An article which has a part that describes MFCC: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1003.4083
PS2: If there is a document about MFCC algorithms steps basically, it will be good.
PS3: My main question is related to that: MFCC with Java Linear and Logarithmic Filters some implementations use both linear and logarithmic filter and some of them not. What is that filters and what is the center frequent concept. I follow that code:MFCC Java , what is the difference of it between that code: MFCC Matlab

Today, we finished the long work on Iron Sky's storyboard. Well, the storyboards will live on and change according to possible changes, but at least for now we're done with them. We spent the last couple of days fretting about the shot orders, while our assistant director was working on the schedules. We managed to fit everything we need quite nicely to the approximately 20 shootings days we're going to film in Frankfurt, and I feel one step more prepared. Of course, there's a lot of things to be done before the shootings, but at least we know where to put the camera when we arrive to the set. One of my major concerns right now is that we're still missing one quite an important role, when suddenly the planets re-aligned themselves and an actress we were hoping to be working with wasn't available (no, not Julia – but someone else. Relax. Take a deep breath. She's still there. :).
But we have casting going on full steam, and we'll find her, I'm certain!
It's just that the clock keeps ticking… tick, tock, tick, tock, TICK, TOCK.
You know the drill.

text: How to earn money from your hobbies Got a particular talent you're good at? Turn your hobby into a fun way to earn extra cash with these great money-making ideas. By Martha Uniacke Breen 2012-11-20 00:00:00 ©iStockphoto.com/Robert Kohlhuber You've got standing orders from all your friends for your artistic knitted shrugs. Or maybe you're a baking whiz, a talented painteror a future Nobel prize-winner in poetry. You've definitely got the goods, but is it one of those money making ideas that can earn you some extra cash? Under certain circumstances, it sure may be! And with a little help from the Internet, it's easier than you might think.Earn money from your hobbies with online sales Michelle Matsui had always dabbled in different crafts and arts, but had never taken her love of making things seriously until she signed up for a screen-printing class a few years ago. That was the beginning of her homewares business, Kempton Jones, which specializes in hand-screened tea towels and other uniquely designed crafts.Getting started was fairly easy, Matsui says. "A friend encouraged me to try a craft market," she says of Kempton Jones' beginnings. When that was a success, she created an Etsystore and now sells at a number of crafts shows, as well as online (through Etsy and her own website) and is starting to buildrelationships with local retailers.Her advice for would-be craft entrepreneurs? "Enter local crafts shows to get feedback from buyers and other vendors," she says. "The community is very helpful and you can learn from others in the business."Using etsy.comOne of the real blessings for micro-micro-businesses, especially crafts makers, has been etsy.com. Matsui endorses it enthusiastically, no matter how small or large your ambitions. "You will immediately get in front of thousands of potential customers, and you can control how much you want to invest in it." Matsui adds that it's smart to set up your own PayPal account -- an easy and safe way to conduct financial transactions online -- and that you shoot your product photos in bright, indirect light for best results. Online sales are only one way to turn your talent into a money-maker. 1 2

Personnel File - August 2008: Energy / Environment
Coastkeeper, N.C. Coastal Federation
For more than 30 years, Frank Tursi chased the news as a reporter and editor for newspapers such as the Miami Herald and the Winston-Salem Journal. But in 2002, he became Cape Lookout coastkeeper for the North Carolina Coastal Federation, a Newport-based nonprofit. Tursi, 57, watches for pollution or developments that could harm the quality of the water and the coastline. A Brooklyn, N.Y., native, he moved to Asheville at 14 when the textile company his father worked for opened a plant there. He got a bachelors in English in 1973 at East Carolina University.
Were often accused of wanting to stop growth and development. Thats never been the philosophy here at the Coastal Federation. The trick is to attract growth that doesnt totally devastate the environment. The industry out here is the water. Its the basis of the coasts economic vitality. If we can protect it, then we are securing our economic future.
The newspaper business had just changed dramatically since my days as a cub reporter. There were some cost constraints, but back in those days your only job was to get the story, to work however many hours it took, to go wherever you needed to go. These days, the bean counters are in charge.
I grew up a block away from Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn. Id take my fishing rod and spend the day, like Otis Redding, sitting on the dock of the bay. When I was 9 or 10, my uncle bought a bungalow in Lindenhurst, Long Island. This was before the days of the great exodus from Manhattan to Long Island, and it was very much like many parts of coastal North Carolina are today. Id spend the entire summer there with my cousin just fishing and crabbing and mucking through the marsh.

Microsoft has been fined 280.5m euros ($357m; £194m) by the European Commission for failing to comply with an anti-competition ruling.
The software giant will appeal against the fine which follows a long-running dispute between it and EU regulators.
Microsoft's general counsel, Brad Smith, insisted the company had met the commission's demands, and said it would appeal the decision.
"This is not about compliance, this is about clarity," Mr Smith explained during a conference call.
Mr Smith said Microsoft would argue that the commission's original demand was too vague, and that the company had since done everything it could to comply with the ruling and provide all the information that was required.
Microsoft expected to deliver the final bundle of information for use by rival software firms on 18 July, he said, well ahead of the EC's deadline of July 24.
"Hopefully we will bring this chapter to a close in the next couple of weeks," Mr Smith said, adding that while Microsoft was not happy about the fine, the company had seen signs of progress in resolving the dispute.
EU Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes said she had "no alternative but to levy penalty payments" against Microsoft, adding that "no company is above the law".
"I regret that, more than two years after the decision… Microsoft has still not put an end to its illegal conduct," Ms Kroes said.
Brussels had warned Microsoft in December that it would face fines of 2m euros a day if the firm failed to meet the commission's demands.
Under the 2004 ruling, Microsoft was told to provide rival firms with more information about its software, in order to enable them to write programs that could run more smoothly on Microsoft's widely-used Windows operating system.
The judgment also called for Microsoft to debundle its Windows Media Player from its Windows operating system, and slapped the software firm with a record fine of 497m euros.

SCES has awards program
On Wednesday, June 5, Susquehanna Community Elementary School had an awards assembly for all students with Principal Robert Keyes doing the honors.
According to Keyes, total enrollment for SCES, K-6th grade is 497 students.
The awards hand out included: honor roll; special awards for reading; math; writing; perfect attendance; homework completion; artists of the year and Harford Fair recognition.
There were 17 sixth grade students receiving Presidential Fitness silver medals and four students receiving Presidential Fitness gold medals for their high academic standing. Gold Medal recipients were: Canyon Stone, Adam Rockwell, Robert Palonis and Devon Dubanowitz.
The 2013 SCES Principal's Award was presented to Canyon Stone. Previously Canyon had accompanied Principal Keyes to a luncheon at the Green Gables for the county Principal's award presented this year to Susquehanna's candidate, Stone.
The students were invited to visit the Susquehanna Public Library and take part in the special events planned for the summer. The librarian brought books to show what will be available for the students.
A highlight of this year's assembly was recognizing a "special teacher" who is retiring.
Mrs. Carolyn Homer has been teaching for 35 years and, according to Mrs. Kathleen Hilling, no one realizes how many lives she has touched with her, "I care about you" message she extended on a daily basis to both students and other faculty members.
"This is something we need now and then," Hilling said.
She added that "her dedication was unbelievable" and Mrs. Homer's students presented her with pink roses.

Coach Ferentz News Conference Transcript | Coach Ferentz News Conference Video
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Moments after the University of Iowa's 59-3 victory against Western Michigan on Sept. 21, Hawkeye linebacker James Morris bemoaned that after four games, no team had `pinned their ears back and run at us.'
That could change Saturday when Iowa opens the Big Ten Conference season at Minnesota. The Gophers have run the ball 197 times, third-most in the league behind Iowa (218) and Nebraska (202).
"(Minnesota is) a physical football team," UI head coach Kirk Ferentz said Tuesday at his weekly news conference inside the Hayden Fry Football Complex. "They're a little bit different with the quarterback situation now, and then they are running the ball really well."
For the Gophers at quarterback, freshman Mitch Leidner stepped in for Philip Nelson last week and ran for 151 yards and four touchdowns during a 43-24 win against San Jose State. In four games, Leidner has carried the ball for 251 yards and five touchdowns and completed 12-of-20 passes for 176 yards.
Minnesota has run the ball 38, 43, 49, and 67 times in the first four outings.
To Ferentz, the 2013 Minnesota team reminds him of the 2010 Northern Illinois team he saw on film. Then, the Huskies were coached by Jerry Kill, who is now head coach for Minnesota.
"The key is to take care of business week to week. Every game is so important because you only get 12 cracks and now being in conference play, divisional play, that amps it up even more. Every game is important on your resume. It's the nature of the beast when you only play 12."
Kirk Ferentz
UI head football coach
Iowa won last year's meeting, 31-13, but the Gophers have prevailed in the only two games played in TCF Bank Stadium. Minnesota won 27-24 in 2010 and 22-21 in 2011.
"Part of that is credit to them, but part of the blame lies at our feet, too," Ferentz said. "If we play like we did the last two times, we're not going to win the game, I'll make that prediction right now."
Ferentz continues to emphasize that in college football, every game is important. Things are magnified for the Hawkeyes and Gophers in Week 5 because it is not only a conference opener, but a Legends Division opener as well.
"The key is to take care of business week to week," Ferentz said. "Every game is so important because you only get 12 cracks and now being in conference play, divisional play, that amps it up even more. Every game is important on your resume. It's the nature of the beast when you only play 12."
With such a physical game looming, line play could be crucial. Ferentz said his troops are "gaining ground, but this will be a big test for us."
Minnesota's interior offensive line averages 311.4 pounds, compared to 300 for the Hawkeyes. On the defensive line, Iowa has an edge by an average of 13 pounds per head. The largest of the Gophers on defense is senior nose guard Ra'Shede Hageman at 6-foot-6, 311 pounds.
"They've turned into a good outfit," Ferentz said of the Minnesota lines. "They're reaping the benefits."
Special teams play by the Hawkeyes received compliments three days after they returned two punts for touchdowns, averaged 32.5 yards per kickoff return, and limited Western Michigan to 18.7 yards per kickoff return.
"I think we're moving forward, that was one of the good things about Saturday beyond the returns," Ferentz said. "We're not there yet, but at least we're starting to make some strides. That was a big concern a couple weeks ago."
Iowa and Minnesota meet for the 107th time in football Saturday. The game will begin at 2:36 p.m. (CT) and will be televised by ABC with reverse mirror on ESPN2. The announcers are Mike Patrick, Ed Cunningham, and Jeannine Edwards.
