Small 10mm Puck Rig with Striped Lip Wrap
By Nexus Glass
Ratings by Category
Features of this Glass Water Bong
Bent Neck
There are many advantages to a bent neck design. Some people prefer it because of the aesthetics, but the bent neck serves an important function in some pieces. Because of the angle, it prevents splash-back into your mouth.
Diffused Downstem
A diffused downstem is a simple glass tube that puts the smoke down through the water. Smoke diffuses into the water through the downstems holes or slits.
Thick Glass
We consider this piece to have thick glass, which helps with the durability of certain glass items. Thick glass means your piece is less likely to break as a result of damage. While many of our pieces have thick glass, we felt the need to point it out specifically here.
Nexus Glass
Rated 4.43 out of 5 stars from 62 reviews.
If you haven't heard of Nexus Glass, then you should get out more. Nexus Glass is a pretty new company, making their debut this year in Denver, Colorado on 4/20, by winning the elusive "Best in Glass" award. Even Wiz Khalifa approves, using Nexus's puck disk oil rig as one of his own personal pieces. Located in SoCal, Nexus Glass produces high quality, beautiful glass at reasonable prices.

An update on the Roger Corman/Joe Dante/Corey Feldman collaboration for Netflix's debut streaming web series, Splatter, crossed our desks this morning, and we've got all the details for you hot off the press.
The webisodes were conceived and produced by Mr. Corman, co-produced by Julie Corman, directed by horror auteur Joe Dante, and star Corey Feldman in the title role of rocker Johnny Splatter. The first episode of Splatter will launch on October 29 with the second installment scheduled for November 6 and the concluding episode slated for November 13 – yes, Friday the 13th.
In a plot twist, Mr. Corman, making his Internet video debut at age 83, is opening up the creative direction of the series by asking the public to vote on the fate of its characters. "When Netflix approached me with this unique idea, I was truly intrigued about creating something that left the ending up to the audience," said Corman. "Making content for the web is a natural progression for me, but Splatter is a rare opportunity to involve my horror fans who really love being a part of the process."
Anyone in America can instantly watch the webisodes right here via computer; however, Netflix members will be able to instantly watch Splatter on their TVs via a range of Netflix ready devices at the conclusion of the series. Those devices include Netflix ready Blu-ray disc players and new Internet TVs from LG Electronics; Blu-ray disc players from Samsung; the Roku digital video player; Microsoft's Xbox 360 game console; and TiVo digital video recorders.
"Netflix is delighted to be working with such film luminaries as Roger Corman and Joe Dante to bring our instant streaming capabilities to life in a unique and creative way for horror fans across the country, said Leslie Kilgore, chief marketing officer for Netflix. "Splatter is a celebration of classic horror movies and gives fans of the genre an exciting way to sample watching instantly at Netflix."
Splatter is the haunting tale of rock-and-roll legend Johnny Splatter, a musical genius who accumulated as many hit records as he did enemies on his climb up the fame ladder. His sudden death, ruled a suicide, brings a small circle of professional parasites and hangers-on to his Hollywood Hills mansion for the reading of his last will and testament. But as his "frenmies" come to pick the bones clean, Johnny has returned for a deadly encore long after what they thought was his final curtain.
Check out a bunch of behind-the-scenes stills below, and be sure to catch the first episode of Splatter two weeks from today on October 29th.

I never got into the Batman: The Brave and the Bold animated series as the show was a bit too campy for my tastes. Not that I had anything against it. I think it was a fun cartoon and certainly found an audience of fans both young and old. It just wasn't my cup of tea.
However, by coincidence I caught this week's episode, which just happened to be the series finale. And wow, what an amazing ending to a fun, wacky show! Titled "Mitefall," it featured Batmite, the imp from the 5th dimension with an unhealthy obsession with Batman, trying to get the "goofy" show cancelled to make room for a darker, edgier, "more dramatic" Batman series. Fanboy stand-in, anyone?
Anyway, Batmite's strategy is to alienate the show's viewing audience by making it "jump the shark" (which he does both literally and figuratively). He gives Batman a precocious little daughter, a Scrapy-Doo like canine sidekick, switches Aquaman's voice actor to Ted McGinley, and introduces several ridiculous Batman outfits based on the toy lines we're all familiar with (things like arctic explorer Batman). Oh, and then there's the aforementioned Neon Talking Super Street Bat Luge.
Series writer Paul Dini turned in a fantastically subversive, self-referential script, both acknowledging and ridiculing many of the real world entertainment and business aspects of a show like this. I'm talking about demographics, toy lines, ad executives, ratings, etc. The episode wasn't just meta, it was hyper meta.
Oh, and it also featured Ambush Bug.
Anyway, whether you were a fan of the show or not, I'd highly recommend this episode, if only for the in-jokes and meta-commentary. And the faux new Batman CGI cartoon hinted at in the end.
Bonus for Craig: in the opening sequence, Batman teams up with Abraham Lincoln to defeat a steampunk John Wilkes Booth!

Health Care Divide
[Sorry, the video for this story has expired, but you can still read the transcript below. ]
GWEN IFILL: A new study released today finds wide discrepancies in the health care received by whites and by members of minority groups in this country. Moreover, the report prepared by the Institute of Medicine says the health care gap persists even when different racial groups have similar incomes and insurance coverage.
Some of the elements of the racial gap: Breast cancer screenings: 71 percent of white patients got them, only 63 percent of black patients did. Heart disease: For every 100 white patients who had a procedure to clear an artery, only 74 black patients did. Diabetes: black patients are over three-and-a-half times more likely to have a limb amputated.
Two members of the report join us now to discuss the panel's findings and recommendations. Dr. Risa Lavizzo-Mourey is senior vice president of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Dr. Joseph Betancourt is a senior scientist in the Institute for Health Policy at Harvard Medical School.
Welcome, doctors.
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: Thank you.
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: Thank you.
GWEN IFILL: How did you reach your conclusions? What were the methodologies for this?
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: We had a 15-member committee that reviewed literally dozens and dozens of articles that have been published in the scientific literature. We also conducted workshops, brought the public in and conducted focus groups to really try to understand the way patients were perceiving the health care system. And we combined all of that, synthesized that information to come up with our findings and recommendations.
GWEN IFILL: It raises so many questions, but I guess I'll start with access to care. Was this a question that minority patients had less access to care?
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: No. You know interestingly enough, our charge from Congress as part of the Institute of Medicine in conducting this study was in fact to look once access has been achieved. So clearly there's many factors that contribute to disparities in health outcomes, such as poverty and social determinants, and not having access to health care. But the charge to us as a committee was to look at patients within the health care system. Once you have access to care, are there disparities in both diagnostic and treatment procedures and in outcomes within the health care system?
GWEN IFILL: Dr. Lavizzo-Mourey, was this – because of the charge that Congress gave you on this report, did you decide in advance that these discrepancies were driven by race or is this something you discovered as you went along?
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: We looked at the evidence very carefully. And we came into it with an open mind. I think there were — with 15 people on a committee, there were obviously very different views about whether the evidence was going to come out positive or negative. But I think it's fair to say that after a very few meetings and looking at the weight of the evidence, as I said, dozens and dozens of studies, the committee was in full agreement that this was a big problem.
GWEN IFILL: Why — for those of us who are lay people in this — why isn't this a matter of socio-economics instead of race, instead of people who are of color, have less access or don't make as much money that they're likely to get less care?
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: Well, once you get into the doctor's office or into the health care system, I think we all want to believe that medical care should be blind, that race should not be a factor. But, in fact, as we have looked at the studies, one of the things that's pretty clear is that we live in an environment where we all bring some baggage to that encounter, if you will. We have stereotypes.
And let's say because of living in this country one has a stereotype that African Americans are less intelligent, in the heat of an encounter, which has all kinds of constraints of time and perhaps not fully understanding what one is saying to other, the doctor speaking in jargon for example what can sometimes happen is those stereotypes start to play out on both sides. And that can very much exacerbate these discrepancies.
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: Yeah. And, in fact, we don't deny that socio-economic factors play a role here. It would be naive to say that they don't. But we really focused our literature review on studies in which as much of these outside factors were controlled for. Socioeconomic status in its totality is different to control for in all instances. But, again, we had a preponderance of evidence, which highlighted the fact that despite access or despite socioeconomic factors, there still seemed to be significant differences in treatment.
GWEN IFILL: Now when we talk about these kinds of areas, are we talking black/white, or are we talking other races as well?
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: Well, I think that the interesting part about our work and one of our major findings was that the majority of literature in the area of health disparities focuses on African-American and white differences. In fact, that stems from the historical context in which we have collected data on race and ethnicity almost before 1970 looked at just white, black and other. So our most robust data and the most robust studies are comparing African-Americans and whites.
That being said, we do have a fair amount of growing literature that highlights disparities in Hispanic populations, Native American populations, and Asian and Pacific Islander populations as well. I mean, we feel that this is in some ways the tip of iceberg and we need to learn more about what is going on in these other communities.
GWEN IFILL: Are there certain diseases which are more likely to go un- or under diagnosed because of these kinds of disparities?
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: There are clearly areas where we have more information that there are problems but almost wherever you look, there are problems. Some of areas that the literature points to are cardiovascular disease — we know and, as you cited, some of the statistics that African-Americans and other people of color often don't get the kind of technological advanced treatment that would be useful in prolonging life and making them more healthy. Cancer studies show similar findings.
We know that in the area of kidney disease, African-American and other people of color are less likely to get transplants. There's frequently less pain medicine given. So it is pervasive. And there's data in almost every place you look, but the areas where it really shows up are in cardiovascular disease and cancer. I think those are the areas that the data is most robust.
GWEN IFILL: Is the outcome different in this data if the care givers are themselves minorities?
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: There's not a whole lot of literature that let's us know that. In fact, if we look at our health care work force right now, if we look at physicians, only about 6 to 8 percent of all our physicians are minorities. As a result, we're making certain assumptions about the variety of physicians and who is providing care just by those numbers. The majority of physicians are, in fact, white.
The there are some studies that highlight the fact that when an African-American physician, for example, is with an African-American patient, the patient senses that their encounter, their visit with that doctor is more participatory. And what I mean by that is that they are able to weigh in with their opinions and give their perspectives.
So I think we didn't — we were unable – again due to the literature — to dig down deep and look if these differences are related to race concordance or discordance between provider and patient. But in fact, there are some studies to show that minority patients may be more satisfied with minority providers.
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: If I could just add to that –
GWEN IFILL: Sure.
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: I think one of the things that in terms of a concrete study that has been done looking at the amount of time various racial groups spend with other racial groups, white physicians spend more time with white patients than they do with African-American and other minority patients. In that same study that I'm talking about if you look at the amount of time spent by African-American doctors with African-American patients, it was longer than the white doctors spent with African-American patients. So there seems to be some more quantitative evidence.
GWEN IFILL: And a lot of people will look at what you just said and your earlier comments about stereotypes being rampant and say it's racism. This is America — of course this would happen. Is that true? Is it racism? Or is unknowing behavior?
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: Our report did not find any direct evidence of racism. In fact, we hope as health care providers that in fact many health care professionals enter the profession with the ideals of professionalism and equity and ideals that in fact would make them well-intentioned to care for patients. We think that physicians and patients really want the same thing – the best health outcomes. And in fact we're talking about stereotyping — we're talking about physicians being susceptible to what we all are susceptible to. Stereotyping is a normal cognitive process. It allows us to take complex information and distill it down when we have to make quick decisions.
The medical encounter is characterized by three factors: Being rushed or having a short amount of time, having to multitask and being stressed because these are high pressure situations. All those three factors contribute and activate stereotypes even among the very well-intentioned. So, in fact, many physicians may not even know that they may be treating these patients differently.
GWEN IFILL: So what are the remedies that you recommend? Is there a way around this?
DR. RISA LAVIZZO-MOUREY: Well, we believe there is. There's a comprehensive set of recommendations that we've laid out. I'll just highlight a few. I think one of the most important things is to increase the awareness about this issue. Many people believe that it's not an issue or that it's due only to access. And I think one of the important things is to raise awareness. Secondly, we have talked about the difference in the quality of the encounter when the patient and the provider have the same background. And I think that points to the need to increase the number of minority health care providers in our system. Six percent in no way reflects the population, and certainly does not reflect the population of the future.
GWEN IFILL: What is the first thing that can happen of these recommendations, Dr. Betancourt?
DR. JOSEPH BETANCOURT: One area that there's something going on right now – in fact, two areas – one area is in the area of education. So the LCME, which accredits medical schools, is already looking at standards that would encourage medical schools to teach both how we make decisions and racial and ethnic disparities, so people get increased awareness, but also tools and skills to better understand and manage patients from different backgrounds. That's already underway and we have great hope that that will help us along in this process.
GWEN IFILL: Dr. Risa Lavizzo-Mourey and Dr. Joseph Betancourt. Thank you very much for joining us.

I was a young middle-class mum reporting for a daily broadsheet when I first heard of Teresa Savage.
She and her partner Louise Marsden had three small children and were doing battle with a private health insurer, which had refused to insure that family just as they would insure mine.
The crime against private health insurance rules and regulations leading to the refusal to insure? The two parents were lesbians.
To be honest, at the time, I didn't know too many gay families. The ones I did know shared with me what seemed like fascinating tales of conception. It all seemed a lot more complicated than what I'd needed to do to get knocked up. A passionate shag with an eye on the calendar and my vaginal mucus compared to semen syringes and turkey basters. That experience also seemed like a lot less fun, although I am now enjoying the freedom from calendars.
Nevertheless, Teresa and Louise soldiered on. I ended up writing a story about what seemed like completely outrageous discrimination which was published on page one of the Sydney Morning Herald. The private health insurer backed right off and today families of all kinds are able to get that kind of health insurance. Even my adult kids can still be insured provided they are still studying.
Over the years, I became quite friendly with Teresa and Louise. They had three kids. So did we. The kids became friendly. Their eldest started teaching where I teach. He is a clever and lovely young man and students adore him.
I'm writing about Teresa because we've bobbed up in each other's lives for 30 years and did it again last Friday night. She was awarded the top honour in the Edna Ryan awards.
Edna Ryan, a life long campaigner for equal pay and equal rights, died 15 years ago and to commemorate her actions, each year women whose activities have advanced the cause of women are recognised in a ceremony ending with the award to the Grand Stirrer, for "inciting others to challenge the status quo". This year, that award went to Teresa Savage.
I discovered things about her I'd never known. She started a lesbian mothers' group when her kids were tiny. She's an ambassador for ACON's anti-violence project. I knew she was a senior NSW public servant but I didn't know she spent some of her time agitating for more women at senior levels (we all need to do this, people). Now she has started an excellent web-based activist group of which I am a little bit jealous. It is called 55Uppitty, to record the history of women involved in lesbian feminist culture. I want one of those to record the history of straight feminists too. As Teresa says: "Age doesn't make us irrelevant, asexual, harmless, styleless, conservative, invisible or insignificant."
As I was reading through the history of the Ednas, I came across an article written by former Canberra Times journalist Danielle Cronin, who reported that in 2006, Nationals senator Fiona Nash declined her award for her role in the push to end the then Federal Health Minister's veto over access to RU-486. I guess it would have drawn even more attention to the fact that the push was cross-party. It truly was a work of feminist collaboration.
This year, the winners were not political in what you would describe as capital P politics. It was more along the lines of the kinds of politics which drives our lives every day: Leah Weber, part of Women Say Something, who won her award for community activism and who danced in a politician's office to make her warm but serious point about equal pay; Sylvia Kinder, who won her award for mentoring other women; and who was one of the first Australians to try to teach an analysis of sexism in the media; Jan McDonald, active in campaigning against domestic violence in the NSW Hunter Valley and, of course, more broadly.
And me.
I won an Edna last Friday for consistent promotion of women's interests in the media. I'm pretty sure it's the only award I've ever won for journalism in my life (although I did make a state shortlist for the Walkleys 16 years ago when I found that Helen Garner had invented some aspects of her book The First Stone).
I'm not a big awards person because I think accepting them makes you a little beholden to whomsoever is handing out those awards. My mum and dad were big on the whole Queen's Honours thing (I'm sure this was a function of what I now describe as 'migrant madness', a syndrome whereby recent citizens try to over-identify with their new home) and when I was a girl, it was certainly my aim to get one of those. Since my parents died before that was possible, I've never given it a second thought.
Somehow I don't think they would have quite got the import of an Edna. Or even have been comfortable with the idea that their daughter uses the word vagina in public every second week. And may have even felt anxious about me writing endlessly about abortion and childcare and reproductive rights.
But they would have been grateful that someone honoured their offspring. And so am I.

There is something peculiarly impressive about the video below of Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, talking in Mandarin to students at Tsinghua University in Beijing. If nothing else, it shows a dedication to the country's customs that very few foreign business leaders can match.
Mr Zuckerberg clearly has business motives for making the effort, in addition to his personal connections – Priscilla Chan, his wife, comes from a Chinese family and her mother speaks mostly Mandarin. Facebook is blocked in mainland China, along with other US internet companies, and wants restrictions to be loosened. Read more


text: Leo Frank, a northern Jew who had moved to Atlanta to manage a pencil factory, was accused of murdering a 14-year-old factory employee named Mary Phagan in the year 1913. After a sensationalized trial, Frank was found guilty and sentenced to hang. He was convicted primarily on suspicious testimony. Georgia Governor John Slaton was not convinced that the evidence for Frank's guilt was strong enough to merit a hanging; he commuted Frank's sentence to life imprisonment. Many in Marietta, Mary Phagan's hometown, were outraged by this action. A group of 25 armed men took kidnapped and lynched Frank. Frank's story reveals the many social conflicts that prevailed during those times. Historians discuss the events of the Leo Frank case and their broader implications.

Are you interested in knowing when you are ovulating? If so, you can easily check your cervix to find out. When you have other signs that you are fertile, like cervical mucus with the consistency of egg whites and have experienced a shift in temperature then you don't necessarily need to check to see if your cervix confirms you are ovulating because you know you are! However, if you aren't quite sure about the consistency of your cervical mucus or haven't been charting your temperatures then your cervix truly can provide you with the information you are looking for.
Before ovulation, your cervix will be wet, open, high and soft. When ovulation is over the cervix will become dry, closed, low and firm. The idea of touching your cervix may not bother you, but since you can't see it you may not know what you are feeling for! The best way to go about this is by learning what your cervix feels like throughout the month and your cycle. When you are charting temperatures and your cervical mucus is wet then you will want to check your cervix to see how it feels. This period of time, which lasts about five days, should create the most changes for you to feel.
Be sure you always have clean hands when feeling your cervix. A good way to know what you are feeling for is that a soft cervix feels much like your lips do. This is during ovulation. Then, after ovulation when the cervix is closed and firm it should feel more like your nose.
Remember, it is important to chart your temperature and check your cervical fluid in addition to feeling your cervix to give you the most information about when you are ovulating and when you aren't. It may take you a while to figure out what your cervix should feel like, but in time you will learn and know exactly when you are ovulating so that you can time intercourse to increase your odds of conception!

A Pacific police officer accused of taking drugs that were evidence in criminal cases is facing felony charges.
Arthur F. Tullock, 55, Pacific, was charged earlier this month in a two-count indictment issued by the Franklin County grand jury.
The indictment charges Tullock with two counts of theft/stealing of any controlled substance.
A $5,000 bond was set in the case.
The indictment alleges that Tullock "appropriated" oxycodone and hydrocodone that were in the charge of the Pacific police department.
The alleged thefts occurred on or about Dec. 12, 2013, according to the indictment.
The case was investigated by officers with the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
Prosecuting Attorney Bob Parks said after the patrol completed its investigation he presented the case to the grand jury which issued the indictment earlier this month.
The indictment was suppressed until it could be served on the defendant.

German Law
Have German Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
Is any of These reasons stipulated in the Termination Agreement?
No, the only reason I was laid off was that they were downsizing the organization and decided to eliminate my position. I was told that there were no other positions available in Europe that suited me. And then I find a job posted in Germany for a Project Manager Service RE EMEA (Germany), with a very similar description to my previous position. My previous title was Senior Manager, Projects and Service EMEA, with a very similar job description.
Under German law it is my understanding that they cannot fire me without good cause. I was a very high performing employee and was never reprimanded for anything during my 1 year of employment with this company.
The issue is that they did not fire you. You signed a Termination Agreement. There would only be a Chance to get rid of that Agreement if the Basis of the Agreement (Job not longer available) could be proved. This will usually only be possible if stipulated in the Agreement itself.

If they fire you, you have to file a Claim at court within 3 weeks from receiving the Termination notice. So it ist extremely important to ask a lawyer at once when you receive such a notice.
I'm sorry not being able to give you any more positive Information.
...thanks for the response. However, the Termination agreement states clearly that: "The terminiation is necessary for operational reasons. The strong drop in orders in the past few months has led to an reduced demand of employees; as a consequence of this your position is eliminated. As we do not see any alternative opportunity for you, corresponding to your position as Senior Engineering and Project Manager for EMEA, we are unfortunately in the situation to have to give notice of termination to you."
This is in clear contradiction to the job posted in the German office for a Project Manager Service RE EMEA (Germany) ?
This was my first question!
Please contact immediately a local lawyer doing Labor law.
I think you can challenge the contract on the Basis of malicious deception (arglistige Täuschung, § 123 BGB).
This requires immediate Action!
Please make sure to save the new Job description!

Now a professor who had Thompson in his class said he told a university administrator 10 months ago of his concerns about the mental health of the 20-year-old.
UCLA history professor Stephen Frank said he met the suspect in his Western civilization class late last year.
Frank told the Los Angeles Times he became worried when Thompson sent several e-mails complaining that classmates sitting near him had made offensive comments to him while he was taking a written exam. In one e-mail, Thompson also accused Frank of taunting him.
"I believe I heard you, Professor Frank, say that I was 'troubled' and 'crazy' among other things," Thompson wrote in one of the e-mails. "My outrage at this situation coupled with the pressure of the very weighted examination dulled my concentration and detracted from my performance."
Frank said he was present during the entire exam and saw nothing to support Thompson's complaints. Several teaching assistants also said they saw nothing unusual, Frank said.
Frank said other professors have reported similar exchanges with Thompson, who complained he was the constant target of taunts from students in dorms, dining areas and the library.
"My concern was in the context of other violent incidents on campuses around the country," Frank said.
But a university official told Frank they couldn't order Thompson to seek psychological services.
UCLA spokeswoman Carol Stogsdill said Saturday that university officials were forbidden by privacy laws from discussing how the school may have reacted to any complaints about Thompson's behavior.
All this comes as investigators are piecing together what led to the brutal slashing.
Thompson, who relative said left Belize to attend the university, remained in jail Friday on $1 million bail and was scheduled for arraignment Tuesday. Authorities did not know if he had obtained an attorney. He was arrested shortly after the attack Thursday and booked for investigation of attemped murder.
Stunned University of California, Los Angeles, students watched in horror as blood gushed from the student's neck, forming a puddle on the chemistry lab floor as instructors struggled to stanch the 20-year-old woman's wound.
"Her eyes rolled back in her head, I called out her name and told her to stay with me. She wasn't really responding. I think she could hear me," said chemistry lecturer Stacie Nakamoto.
The victim, who Nakamoto and police would not identify, went to the hospital in critical condition. On Friday, her family released a statement saying she was showing signs of improvement and was expected to recover.
The relationship between Thompson and the victim wasn't clear, but Detective Mike Pelletier said they were not romantically involved.
Cyril Baida, a teaching assistant who was working in a lab across the hall, said he did not know the victim or the suspect but was told that they were lab partners or had worked together in a small group on projects in their lab section.
Immediately after the attack, Thompson walked into the student information center three floors below.
"He was very calm and said he had stabbed someone," said Carol Verduzco, an administrative assistant who works in the office.
She said she asked if he was joking and then she called the police. Thompson waited in a chair for the few minutes it took police to arrive.
"I was in shock," Verduzco said, noting she saw no blood on Thompson.
A knife was recovered at the scene, a laboratory on the sixth floor of the Young Hall chemistry and biochemistry department in the heart of the university on the west side of Los Angeles.
UCLA spokesman Phil Hampton said he could not provide details of the attack, adding: "Everything is still under investigation."
Thompson's relatives said he is an only child who left his mother's home in Belize two years ago to attend UCLA. His second cousin, 17-year-old Akilah Williams, said she was skeptical that Thompson was capable of the attack.
"He cares about what people think about him too much," Williams told the Los Angeles Times. "He gets stressed out but that doesn't mean he'd do something crazy."

NI is now offering sponsorships for NIWeek 2017. This annual event is the premier engineering and science conference designed to help attendees discover, learn, and engineer the future. Scientists, engineers, and other internal influencers showcase leading technologies from a wide range of technical industries and academia to discover exciting new engineering trends and technologies.
By becoming an NIWeek sponsor, you're showing attendees, many of whom are C-level and represent some of the world's largest and most dynamic companies, that you support their opportunities to learn how they can implement the most recent advancements in design, automation, manufacturing, test, measurement, and control systems.
Your company will be associated with the new insights attendees gain by networking with peers, industry experts, and academicians. These discussions can help attendees accelerate their careers, enhance productivity, and deliver best practices back to their organizations.
If your goal is to reach a captive audience of highly skilled influencers, sponsoring NIWeek is a sound investment. NIWeek attendees not only integrate NI hardware and software throughout their enterprises but also help drive strategic business decisions ranging from general-purpose computing to advanced technology needs. Additionally, product vendors involved in control and design application areas who attend NIWeek every year represent the following interests:
To address our rapidly approaching, hyperconnected future, researchers at Bristol and Lund set out to test massive MIMO as a viable technology for 5G networks. Using the NI MIMO Prototyping System, they rapidly implemented the world's first live demonstration of a 128-antenna, real-time massive MIMO testbed and set two consecutive world records in spectral efficiency.
In India, cardiovascular disease accounts for half of all noncommunicable disease deaths. Because of the limited number of resources for treatment, HTIC used the NI platform to create ARTSENS, an effective and affordable technology that general practitioners and health workers can use to noninvasively measure arterial stiffness in an automated manner.
Furuno developed a compact weather radar to detect guerilla rainstorms and prevent other natural disasters in Japan. With the flexibility of the NI AWR Visual System Simulator™, LabVIEW, and FlexRIO, Furuno developed the radar in 40 percent less time compared to the traditional approach.
When we secure rooms at hotels for our conferences (commonly referred to as room blocks), we research the properties to make certain that our attendees will be adequately accommodated. The room block is established to ensure that rooms meet our standards and are offered at a discounted price.
We have been informed that registrants are often contacted by fax, email, or most often by phone with offers for housing. The intent is to convince you that the offer is made on our behalf, or that the soliciting company is a viable alternative to going through our service provider. This is not true. The Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau, through the office of Convention Services, is the only official NIWeek housing bureau. All other entities do not have permission to represent NI or the hotels we have contracted with to support our conference.
Room poaching is a practice carried out by third-party companies that act as travel agencies, wholesalers, or destination management companies to solicit registrants for room reservations.
The poacher might inform registrants that the hotel room block is "sold out," and that if you do not book with them immediately, you may not get a room. Additional deceptive tactics include distributing forms or promotional materials that appear to be issued by NI.
Expo Only Pass includes: Access to keynotes and exhibit hall plus receptions and evening events (no lunches or sessions).
Group Rate Volume Discount Package: Each registrant will receive a Full Conference pass. All registrants must be from the same company.
Alliance Day: Monday, May 22, is reserved exclusively for NI Alliance Partners.
Sessions Only Pass (available on-site only): Includes access to keynotes, sessions, and exhibit hall only (no lunches).
Expo Plus Pass: (available on-site only): Includes access to keynotes and exhibit hall plus all lunches, receptions, and evening events.
Day Pass: (available on-site only): Includes access to keynotes and exhibit hall plus all meals, receptions, and evening events on the single day selected.
Guest Pass: (available on-site only): Includes access to keynotes and the exhibit hall only. Meals are not included.
We are here to help. If you have questions, contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Beyonce Launches Pulse At Macy's In NYC (PHOTOS)
Pulses were raised in New York City last night as Beyonce stepped out to continue the launch of her new fragrance. The Pulse-scented affair went down at the Herald Square Macy's in Manhattan, where the House of Deréon muse looked ravishing (as always) in a long white, fringe-y dress. Bey greeted fans and took photos with those who turned out to purchase the perfume, including one young'un who — let's face it — made us go all soft and gooey inside thinking of the expectant mother soon cradling a tyke of her own. Say it with us now: "Awwww!"

Gregory voters consider opt-out Tuesday
GREGORY — Voters in the Gregory School District will decide Tuesday whether to approve a proposed three-year, $300,000 opt-out.
The opt-out would allow the district to collect an extra $300,000 per year above the state property tax limits for three years. An opt-out is an action by a local government that allows it to enact bigger annual increases in property-tax collections than state-imposed limits would otherwise allow.
The polling booths, which will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., will be located in the lobby of Gregory High School. Any registered voter within the Gregory School District is able to vote on the proposed opt-out.
Gregory Superintendent Sara Klein said if the opt-out is approved, the additional funds will be used to make up for budget cuts the district has made in the last three years and possibly hiring additional staff.
The district does not currently have an opt-out in place.

Had a little bit of a conundrum on what title to give this list. I gather that "Grid" and "Cluster" computing would resonate better than "Distributed" and "Parallel". There's been a lot of activity lately in this area, however the one I've keenly interested in are the ones that integrate with Amazon's S3 and Elastic Cloud efforts. These tools are really great but can be made more appealing it they can be implemented in the cloud. Here are some of the great tools I have discovered so far. (Note: see "Open Source Distributed Cache" for other related clustering tools )
- GridGain – GridGain is a computational grid framework that aims to improve the performance of processing intensive applications by splitting and parallelizing the workload. GridGain's unique feature is that it is an Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP)based grid solution. With AOP-based grid enabling you simply attach annotation to a method and it is automatically grid enabled. The goal is to combine a simple programming model with the state of the art grid computing features. GridGain comes with grid topology management, customizable failover and collision resolution, split-and-aggregate, in-grid and external invocation, pluggable deployment, checkpoint and automatic peer-to-peer deployment.
- Hadoop – Hadoop is a platform that lets one easily develop applications that process vast amounts of data. Hadoop can reliably store and process petabytes. By distributing the data, Hadoop can process it in parallel on the nodes where the data is located. Hadoop automatically maintains multiple copies of data and automatically redeploys computing tasks based on failures. Hadoop implements Google's MapReduce in Java. MapReduce divides applications into many small blocks of work. Hadoop has been demonstrated on clusters with 2,000 nodes.
- Rio – Rio provides a dynamic architecture for developing, deploying and managing distributed applications composed of services. The differentiating features of Rio are a set of dynamic capabilities and reliance on policy-based and QOS mechanisms. Rio is based on Jini and enhances it by introducing a simple component model.
- JPPF – Java Parallel Processing Framework (JPPG) is a grid framework that integrates with existing J2EE application servers. It has a programming model that abstracts the complexity of distributed and parallel processing. It provides graphical tools for fine-grained monitoring and administration of the grid. It provides redundancy, recovery and failover capabilities. JPPF also includes a screensaver node that enables the automatic use of idle computers
- ProActive – ProActive is a platform for parallel, distributed and multi-threaded computing. ProActive features an Eclipse based IDE, a resource acquisition and deployment framework and a parallel programming framework. ProActive supports parallel programming concepts such as Master-Slave, Branch and Bound, Single Program Multiple Data processing, composable structured patterns and active objects. ProActive also supports fault-tolerance, load-balancing, mobility, and security.
- Cougaar – The Cognitive Agent Architecture [cougaar] project provides a framework for distributed multi-agent systems. Cougaar supports the construction of large-scale distributed agent-based applications. It is the result of a multi-year DARPA research project into large scale agent systems. It also includes a variety of demonstration, visualization and management components to simplify the development of complex, distributed applications.
- GridEngine – The Grid Engine project provides enabling distributed resource management software for wide ranging requirements from compute farms to grid computing. Grid Engine provides policy-based workload management and dynamic provisioning of application workloads. A Grid Engine master can manage a grid of up to ten thousand hosts, meeting the scalability needs of even the largest grids. Grid Engine supports flexible resource quotas, boolean expressions for requesting resources, DRMAA 1.0 Java and C-language bindings and DTrace support.
- Cleversafe – Cleversafe uses Cauchy Reed-Solomon Information Dispersal Algorithms to separate data into unrecognizable Data Slices and distribute them, via secure Internet connections, to multiple storage locations on a Dispersed Storage Network. Cleversafe ensures that data remains secure even if transmissions are intercepted and decrypted. Cleversafe ensures that data remains secure even if storage is stolen and decrypted.
- Darkstar – Darkstar is a server to support the development of massively multi-player online games. Darkstar allows developers to scale their applicaions without requiring the need to know distributed computing. Computing however by the server can be spread across any number of servers in a scalable and fault tolerant manner. The system is further more optimized for the low latencies required for game applications. It is a fully distributed, fault tolerant communication and event processing system. Darkstar servers have notable grid like properties: Zoneless and Shardless are not required for scaling, automatic fail-over, transparent persistence and a custom enterprise level transactional data storage system.
- H2O – H2O is a scalable, stateless, and lightweight platform for building and deploying distributed applications. H2O is an open container that allows any authorized third parties to deploy services into the container. H2O features APIs for remote component deployment and management, and inter-component communication. H2O components can communicate via synchronous or asynchronous remote method invocations or through a publisher-subscriber distributed event model. The communication layer offers a selection of messaging protocols (JRMP, SOAP, RPC) and customizable transport stacks (SSL, compressed sockets, JXTA sockets, single-port tunneling, in-process sockets, all of which can be mixed in many combinations). H2O has been designed to support wide range of distributed programming paradigms, including self-organizing applications, widely distributed applications, massively parallel applications, task farms, component composition frameworks, and more. H2O is focused on security, ensuring the safety of shared resources and that of users data via the well-established technologies like SSL, JSSE, JAAS and the Java Platform Security.
- Ibis – The Ibis project currently consists of several sub-projects that include communication libraries, programming models, a grid interface toolkit and a peer-to-peer grid framework. Satin is a programming model that makes it convenient to develop divide and conquer style programs. MPJ provides is a pure Java implementation of the MPI messaging protocol. GMI is a group based implementation for RMI. JavaGAT interfaces with other grid middleware, such as Globus, Unicore, SSH and Zorilla. JavaGAT provides a common uniform interface that provides file access, job submission, monitoring, and access to information services. Zorilla is a peer-to-peer overlay network.
- Pegasus – Pegasus (Planning for Execution in Grids) is a workflow mapping engine developed and used as part of several NSF ITR projects. Pegasus bridges the scientific domain and the execution environment by automatically mapping the high-level workflow descriptions onto distributed infrastructures such as the TeraGrid and the Open Science Grid. Pegasus is used in a variety of scientific applications ranging from astronomy, biology, earthquake science and gravitational-wave physics.
- Java Cog Kit -
The Java CoG Kit framewok provides basic and advanced abstractions that aid in the development of Grid applications. These abstractions include job executions, file transfers, workflow abstractions, and job queues and can be used by higher level abstractions for rapid prototyping. The Java CoG Kit is extensible, users can include their own abstractions and enhance its functionality. Grid providers allow different Grids to be integrated into the framework.
- JGrid – The JGrid is a service-oriented grid where components (services and clients) can dynamically join and leave the system at any time, and users can have simple and seamless access to grid services. The infrastructure is fault-resilient and reliable. JGrid provides a wide-area, distributed service discovery mechanism with content-based query routing and powerful matching semantics. The system allows users to access and use services, execute sequential or parallel programs in a secure environment, and interface with legacy systems. Secure communication and execution environment employs standard security mechanisms (X509, Kerberos, SSL).
- JOMP – The JOMP project goal is to define and implement an OpenMP-like set of directives and library routines for shared memory parallel programming in Java.
So by now you may be bit confused as to what a Grid or Cluster Computing means. Well, you are not alone. Tim Bray wrote a good piece to resolve this ambiquity. Additional Grid information can be found here. Nevertheless, if you know on any more projects that fit the 'Grid' or 'Cluster' computing category, please feel free to contact me.

Hourglass Color Link Palette
Hourglass Color Link Palette Reviews
Hourglass Color Link PaletteI love palettes, and these palettes, tho a little spendy, are well worth every dime! The texture is lovely, and the colors are really pigmented, they wore incredibly beautiful even on my oily skin. The palette itself is really nice, the colors are beautifully coordinated, and they are very workable and blendable. This comapny made a real winner with these, and if I use it up, I plan on buying another, they are divine! — 8 years, 2 months agolesa5363 | 352 reviews

Color Link in Dusk-- a great palette!i love the combination of colors in this palette. they easily work together, or separately, to create anything from pretty day looks to ultra-dramatic night looks as well as everything in between! the eyeshadows go on smooth, last all day and don't crease. the blushes are very complimentary and look great when worn alone and together! while the price is a bit on the high side, it is something that...read more will last a long time, so you'll get your money's worth out of it no matter what color palette you decide to buy! — 8 years, 8 months agobeauty_girl_musings | 136 reviews

Australian swimmer Susie Maroney has given birth to her first child, a baby girl called Paris. It is not known if the 33-year-old reunited with her partner Rob Daniels, the baby's father, before the birth as they split when she was 8-months-pregnant.
The swimmer has battled highs and lows during her life from winning marathon swims to tragedy after her twin brother Sean's death and suffering a miscarriage. Her current pregnancy was originally twins, however one baby died in the womb. She is currently settling back at home with her 8-day-old daughter. Her mum Pauline told Confidential,
"She's my 11th grandchild actually but special because Susie has been through so much and suffered her miscarriages."

1981 — June 11. Siesta Key resident Doug Stone had more use of a fish than anyone else in his neighborhood. First he'd catch it. Then he'd preserved its image on paper. Then he'd eat it. What Stone didn't eat, his cat finished off. Stone was an ichthyologist (a fish studier); an ichthyophagist ( a fish eater); and an ichthyographist (a fish printer). Stone transformed the fish into art using an ancient Japanese art form called gyotaku (gyo meaning fish and tuku meaning rubbing). At one point, 30 of his gyotaku prints of fish that live in Sarasota Bay were on exhibit at Mote Marine Science Center.
1982 --- June 10. Parasailing was igniting some people's tempers on Siesta Key according to the June 10 Observer archives. Howard Beach, who represented Surfrider Beach Apartments on Midnight Pass Road, petitioned the Sarasota County Commission to pass an ordinance prohibiting parasailing from any county beaches. Beach told commissioners that a parasail rental shop had been operating near the Surfrider for about a year. He said the beach the company was using was 100 feet wide and the towline they used was nearly 400 feet long.
"The line sometimes stretches all the way across the Surfrider beachfront, thereby blocking our own guests access to the water," Beach said.
Beach wanted the county to pass an ordinance similar to the one the city of Sarasota adopted in December 1979, which banned boating activity, including water skiing within 500 feet of shore. Today, businesses are not allowed to solicit services on the beach, and that includes parasailing companies. According to ordinance 90.33, if there is an exchange of money for a service in a county park the person representing the business can be charged with a second-degree misdemeanor.
