I can comment briefly. The paper <http://www.ccs.neu.edu/scheme/pubs/icfp05-pcmkf.pdf> has been implemented, by Greg Pettyjohn. It is available as `prototype-web-server' in the `graveyard' section of the SVN repository. I have recently rescued it from bit-rot and wrote a useful application in the input language it requires. After the next release, I plan on making that available in the mainline web-server and gradually improving its coverage of the language. But, I am doing this to scratch an itch, rather than produce research or bullet-proof products.

David Bar Katz claims National Enquirer's story is false and 'insensitive to Hoffman's family and friends.'
Playwright David Bar Katz, who discovered Philip Seymour Hoffman's body in the actor's bathroom on Sunday, February 2, has launched a lawsuit against National Enquirer after the publication reported that he and Hoffman were gay lovers. Enquirer, owned by America Media Inc., reported that Bar Katz gave them an exclusive interview in which he admitted to have romanced Hoffman and saw the actor using heroin. The publication also alleged that Bar Katz had seen Hoffman freebase cocaine the night before his death.
"The story is a complete fabrication: There was no interview," the lawsuit said. "Bar Katz and Hoffman were never lovers. Bar Katz did not see Hoffman freebasing cocaine the night before he died, or at any other time. Bar Katz never saw Hoffman use heroin or cocaine." He insisted that there was no meeting between him and three National Enquirer's writers and that he "unquestionably has not spoken to them or anyone else from the Enquirer since Hoffman's death."
Bar Katz filed the complaint, which was obtained by THR, in the New York Supreme Court, suing the publisher for $50 million. He is seeking $5 million in actual damages and $45 million in punitive damages.
Bar Katz is appalled by the media report surrounding Hoffman's death, saying in the lawsuit, "The media coverage of Hoffman's death has been highly regrettable and insensitive to Hoffman's family and friends. But the generally unseemly coverage of Hoffman's death now seems restrained in light of this new outrage by the Enquirer."
In a statement, Bar Katz's lawyer Judd Burstein added, "This article is just disgusting. Here you have Phil's family and his friends grieving, and the Enquirer comes along seeking to make a buck through putrid lies. Worse still, it appears that the Enquirer sent out a press release hyping the story so that it could sell more copies of the magazine. I do not know how these people can sleep at night."

Academic Dynasties: Nepotism and Productivity in the Italian Academic System
Extensive anecdotal evidence suggests that practices related to familism are widespread in Italian universities. However, systematic evidence is not available since information on family relations is generally unavailable or con dential. We explore the relevance of family ties in the Italian academia as well as the relationship between familism and scientific production. We use a novel dataset on individual characteristics of professors in all Italian universities with a particular focus on the informative content of last names. We construct an academic homonymity index (AHI) by comparing the relative frequency of a last name in each academic unit (department, faculty, university) with its relative frequency in the population of the area in which the university is located derived from data from the Italian scal census. Our index provides an intuitive measure of how disproportionately common a certain last name is within a specific academic unit relative to the overall underlying population. We use our index to investigate differences across universities, regions, and disciplines in the relevance of family connections. Our preliminary results are highly consistent with the anecdotal evidence and show significant differences across regions and disciplines. Interestingly, we also find a strong negative correlation between our index of homonymity and standard measures of interpersonal trust in the area where the university is located. Finally, with regard to the relationship between the strength of family connections and academic productivity, our preliminary findings show that universities which score higher in our homonymity measure tend to be characterized by poorer academic performance, especially in terms of research achievement.

Scifi thriller Electronic Gags now available in kindle store
Below is the blurb of the technothriller "Electronic Gags"
The Ten Districts of America, once known as the United States of America, is ruled by President Brandon Ward, the world's most powerful dictator. The Ten Districts has little hope of achieving democracy. When President Ward decides to use hi-tech methods of repression, the American people lose all hope of attaining freedom. The Ward regime is at the height of its power.
Freddie Young is an overweight wildlife biologist who spends most of his time in the wilderness. But his life changes when the CIB, President Ward's ruthless intelligence agency, arrests his best friend, Michael. Michael's mother accuses Freddie of selling her son to the CIB.
Freddie must prove his innocence and save Michael. Time is running out. Michael is now on death row in the Ten Districts Maximum Security Prison.
A chain of events joins Freddie with former member of the Police Special Branch, Jennifer Rodriguez. Both are on the run and the police are after them with orders to shoot on sight. Although the odds are heavily against Freddie and Jennifer, Freddie decides against skipping out of the Ten Districts. He wants to fight the regime and save his best friend from death row. Jennifer dislikes Freddie the moment she meets him, but as they stay together on the run, she discovers that he is a wonderful man.

Apple Patent Applications Describe Fuel Cell-Powered Mobile Devices

Apple is looking to create, lighter, more efficient devices using fuel cells
Apple is interested in making fuel cell-powered mobile devices, according to Apple patent applications published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
According to two published Apple patent applications, called "Fuel Cell System to Power a Portable Computing Device" and "Fuel Cell System Coupled to a Portable Computing Device," Apple is looking to build lighter and smaller mobile
devices like MacBooks
(Air, Pro) by replacing current batteries with a fuel cell system.
This may not come as a surprise to many, since Apple has filed other patent applications for lighter hydrogen fuel cells. Those patents, which were brought to light this past October, described a building process where multiple fuel cells are connected by a power bus in a parallel pattern, and a voltage-multiplying circuit is added for additional voltage to the stack.
Now, Apple hopes to utilize these lighter, more efficient fuel cells in its mobile products in an effort to promote renewable energy sources and offer devices with the ability to run for days or even weeks without refueling, according to the patent applications. The devices will also be lighter and less bulky due to the lack of traditional batteries.
The first patent application, "Fuel Cell System to Power a Portable Computing Device," states Apple's case for wanting to use fuel cell technology in their devices. While current
fuel cell technology
for mobile products requires the user to carry a fuel cartridge for recharging purposes, Apple wants to integrate fuel cells right into their electronics.
The second patent application, "Fuel Cell System Coupled to a Portable Computing Device," describes how the fuel cell system would work with a rechargeable battery where one would power the other when necessary, and vice versa.
"This eliminates the need for a bulky and heavy battery within the fuel system, which can significantly reduce the size, weight, and cost of the fuel system," said the second patent application. "This fuel system includes a fuel stack cell which converts fuel into electrical power. It also includes a controller which controls operation of the fuel cell system."
One challenge
will be creating a hydrogen fuel cell system that is cost-effective, according to Apple.
Both patents were filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in 2010.

Homework Questions? Ask a Tutor for Answers ASAP
In Excel, I have a column of rows. In the rows I enter information about steel building products. To the right of each row I have a long row of formulas. When the information from the column on the left meets the tests for a cell on the right it activates that cell which draws information from a pool of cells on the same page. All of this works fine on my first trial row, BUT!!!, when I copy and special paste the formula to the next row down, because I have several rows that need to do the same task, the cell will draw information from the exact same pool of information cells but cascade down, row for row, therefor retrieving wrong information.
I hope that makes sense. I would be glad to upload to a fileshare sight but would have to learn how to do it.
Thank You,

This was my original formula =IF(AND(E13=16,H13=8),P6,0)
This is my revised formula =IF(AND(E13=16,H13=8),$P6,0)
Is this correct? Nope, didn't work.
I figured it out!! It has to be =IF(AND(E13=16,H13=8),$P$6,0)
GREAT! Thank You!
No! I figured it out with your help!
Thank You!
Just making sure that everything is complete and you got paid for assisting me.

Every year in the United States, tens of thousands of people are killed or injured from contact with electricity. In fact, one person is electrocuted in the home every 25 hours, according to the latest data available from the Consumer Product Safety Commission. These types of accidents are also the leading cause of death for children, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
To educate children about electrical safety and encourage them to develop their artistic expression, KUA is calling for entries in the utility's 23rd annual calendar art contest. Open to Osceola County students in kindergarten through fifth grade, the contest is designed to promote electrical safety among students and their families. We emphasize safety through this initiative because research conducted by the utility shows that key safety messages delivered early in life help establish a lifetime of good safety practices.

Jalaram Bapa (Gujarati: જલારામ બાપા) popularly known as Bapa (Gujarati: બાપા) (14 November 1799 – 23 February 1881) was a Hindu saint from Gujarat, India. He was born on 14 November 1799,[1] one week after the Hindu festival of Diwali, which is associated with his Iṣṭa-devatā Lord Rama.
Jalaram Bapa was born in Virpur, Rajkot district, Gujarat, India in 1799, on the seventh day of the Kartika month. His father was Pradhan Thakkar and his mother was Rajbai Thakkar who belonged to Lohana clan. He was a devotee of the Hindu god Rama.[2][3]
Jalaram Bapa was however not willing to live an householder's life and continued to take care of his fathers business.[4] He was mostly engaged in serving pilgrims, sadhus and saints. He separated himself from his father's business and his uncle Valjibhai asked Jalaram Bapa and his wife Virbai to stay in his house.[3][5]
At the age of sixteen, in 1816, Jalaram married Virbai, the daughter of Pragjibhai Thakkar (Somaiya) of Atkot.[1][6] However, he was inclined to completely withdraw from materialistic life and become an ascetic, Virbai proved to be an asset to him in his works of feeding poor and needy.[6]
At the age of 18, soon after returning from pilgrimage to Hindu holy places, Jalaram Bapa became the disciple of Bhoja Bhagat of Fatehpur, who accepted him as his disciple. Jalaram was given the "Guru Mantra" (mantra) and japa mala in the name of Rama by his Guru Bhojalram. With blessings of his guru, he started "Sadavrat", a feeding center, a place where all sadhus and saints as well as the needy could have food any time.
One day, a sadhu who came to his house gave him a deity of Lord Rama, forecasting that Hanuman, the monkey-god and devotee of Rama, would follow soon. Jalaram Bapa installed Rama as his family deity and after a few days, a deity of Hanuman appeared out of earth, on its own. The deity of Rama's consort Sita and his brother Lakshmana also appeared.[7][8] Due to a miracle the container in the house of Jalaram, where grains were stored, became inexhaustible.[2] Later other devotees and village folk joined him in his works of human welfare.
Soon his fame spread as an divine incarnation. Whoever came to Virpur, whether Hindu or Muslim irrespective of caste, creed and religion were fed by Jalaram. This tradition of feeding people continues to this day in Virpur.[2]
Once a tailor named Haraji, who was suffering from severe stomach-ache came to him to get himself cured. Jalaram Bapa prayed to God and Haraji was cured. He fell at Jalaram Bapa 's feet and addressed him as Bapa. Since then he was known as Jalaram Bapa.[3] Soon his fame spread and people came to him to get rid of diseases and problems. Jalaram Bapa would pray for them in the name of Rama and miracles happened. Both Hindus and Muslims became his disciples. In 1822, Jamal, son of a rich Muslim merchant fell ill and doctors gave up all hope. At that point of time, Haraji, told Jamal of his experience (parcha). Jamal, prayed from his house, that if his son is cured of the disease, he would give 40 maunds of grain to Jalaram Bapa for sadavrat. His son recovered and Jamal visited house of Jalaram Bapa with cart load of grains and called him Jalla so Allah!!.[1][6]
At one time, God in the guise of an old saint told Jalaram to send Virbai to serve him. Jalaram consulted her and with her consent sent her with the saint. But after walking some miles and reaching a nearby forest, the saint asked Virbai to wait for him. She waited but saint did not return. Instead, she heard an Akashwani stating that it was only to test the hospitality of the couple. Before the saint disappeared, he left a Danda [staff] and Jholi[Cloth bag], with Virbai. Virbai returned home to Jalaram, as instructed by the celestial voice with Danda & Jholi. This Danda and Jholi are still at Virpur and kept on display in a glass enclosure.[5][9]
Jalaram Bapa and Virbai had a daughter named Jamnaben from their marriage. Jamnaben's grandson Harirambahi was adopted by Shri Jalaram Bapa and his direct descendant, Giridhar Bapa and now his son Jaisukhram Bapa now head the gadi of revered Virpur shrine of Jalaram Bapa.[10][11]
It is the workplace of Shree Jalaram Bapa.The main shrine of Jalaram Bapa is located at Virpur. The shrine is actually the house complex where Jalaram lived during his lifetime. The shrine houses the belongings of Jalaram and the deities of Rama, Sita, Lakshamana and Hanuman worshipped by him. It also has on display the Jholi and Danda said to be given by God.[5] But the main attraction is the portrait of Jalaram Bapa. There is also an actual black and white photo of Jalaram Bapa, taken one year before his death.[7]
The temple is one of a kind in the world in a way that it has not been accepting any offerings since 9 February 2000.[2]

In modern time, devotees of Jalaram[12] have experienced that if they pray to the saint sincerely, he blesses them and fulfills their wishes. These experiences are known as Parchas. They pray to Jalaram Bapa and if their wish is fulfilled they do[13] fast and visit a temple on Thursday.[14][15][16] Today there are large followers of Jalaram Bapa, who worship him like a God, similar in line of Sai Baba of Shirdi.[17]
So far there is only one book written on Shri Jalaram Bapa's Tales of Miracles by Author Chirag Sheth & Yuvraj Sheth, which is available on most online websites.
Jalaram Jayanti[edit]
Jalaram Bapa's birthday is celebrated on 7th day Shukla paksha of the Hindu month of Kartika as Jalaram Jayanti. It falls on seventh day from Diwali. On this day, devotees are served meal as prasad. There is a huge fair and festival at Virpur on the occasion and millions of devotees visit Virpur, on this day to pay their respect to the saint and have prasad of chiefly of khichdi with Bundi and popular farsan item Ganthiya[7][8][18] The Jalaram Jayanti celebrations are also held at all Jalaram temples spread throughout India & abroad with festivities, where devotees participate to pay their respects and have prasad.[19]
The idol of Jalaram Bapa is shown as a smiling man holding danda and wearing often a white paghadi and white dhoti-kurta.[20] The deities of his patron deities Rama, Sita, Lakshmana and Hanuman are also mostly found along with his idol. Temples of Jalaram Bapa today can be found in almost all big & small towns across India.[21][22] Outside India, temples are in East Africa,[23] United Kingdom,[24][25] United States of America[26][27] and New Zealand.[27]

|Long (400 ft. + 40 ft./level){{#set:Range=Other}}
|20-ft.-radius emanation centered on a creature, object, or point in space
|1 min./level (D)
|Saving Throw:
|Will negates; see text or none (object)
|Spell Resistance:
|Yes; see text or no (object)
Upon the casting of this spell, complete silence prevails in the affected area. All sound is stopped: Conversation is impossible, spells with verbal components cannot be cast, and no noise whatsoever issues from, enters, or passes through the area. The spell can be cast on a point in space, but the effect is stationary unless cast on a mobile object. The spell can be centered on a creature, and the effect then radiates from the creature and moves as it moves. An unwilling creature can attempt a Will save to negate the spell and can use spell resistance, if any. Items in a creature's possession or magic items that emit sound receive the benefits of saves and spell resistance, but unattended objects and points in space do not. This spell provides a defense against sonic or language-based attacks.

A few years ago I was visiting a CPA firm in Chicago that did two things I found intriguing. The first was that when I sat down in their lobby the receptionist handed me a small, printed menu that offered "bottled water, soft drinks, coffee and tea." While I have never yet been to a firm that doesn't offer these amenities while you are waiting, I have never seen the message delivered so nicely. The colorful menu with the firm's logo made a statement about their commitment to my comfort. Next, when I went into their conference room, there were a few sheets of note paper customized with my name waiting for me. Clearly they had purchased line paper and built a template so that when I arrived they just had to insert my name into the template, put the lined paper into the printer and – voila! – custom note paper.
Neither of these two ideas had any real cost attached. And I wholeheartedly admit that, all things being equal, no one selects a CPA firm because they like their snack menu. But, it is important to consider that small acts of kindness can make a big impression. They can help reaffirm for existing clients that they are cared for. As for prospects or centers of influence, the more sincere attention they receive, the more likely they are to want to business with you. All in all, the first impression is critical so you should consider how you are consistently putting your best foot forward every day.

We still don't know whether Sushmita Sen will get her dulha in the film Dulha Mil Gaya but she definitely has got her real life groom in the director of the film Mudassar Aziz. The industry people are whispering about their marriage also. At the same time, Mudassar thinks that Sushmita is the only source of his inspiration. But this is not the end. He says that whenever Sushmita will be in need, he will be with her. Still, the things are not working well. Why? Well, the groom declines any chance of development in their personal relationship that may lead them to marriage. According to him, it's simply gimmick.
Writer turned director Mudassar is directing Sushmita in Dulha Mil Gaya but in Sushmita's home production Jhansi Ki Rani Lakshmibai, he is just helping out the writing department. Explaining the reason, Mudassar says, "I am just helping her in writing because she is giving direction in the film". But won't you help her in direction!
"It's not only for writing or direction for Lakshmibai," he replies, "but also for any case in life, Mudassar will always be with Sushmita."
Wow!! That's really called playing the role of a man. It clearly shows how Mudassar is in love with Sushmita. But still, the other side of the issue is not clear. To merge the marriage issue up, we still would have to wait for Sushmita's opinion. As we know without the better half the marital globe is still incomplete.
