16-year-old Norwegian, Lars Andreas Bjercke downloaded an application on his smartphone, which aims to attract foxes to the phone. The phone was imitating rabbit sounds.
The application worked so well that the fox circled around Lars's yard for several nights. At one point, Lars decided to put the phone in the middle of the road, the Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang says.
The fox soon walked up to the phone. At first, he was afraid of it, but soon dared to get closer and smell it. Suddenly, the fox grabbed the phone and ran into the bushes.
Lars was amused with the situation, and he ran after the fox. The fox, however, had a different plan, disappearing with the phone.
Lars the later called the phone and, surprisingly, the fox answered.
"There was a crackling sound and some noise," Lars told Verdens Gang.
The next day, Lars's friend wondered why he had sent him the odd text messa

Those are really pretty! We've got the standard porch lights which we call our "granny lights". We love them. One came with the house and we found a replacement one for the other porch very cheaply from Home Depot or Lowe's (can't recall). They're this style:
At our last house, we also had the matching post light.

It's not just The Fashion Police you need to worry about when you're getting dressed in the morning, folks. No, sometimes the REAL cops have an interest in what you're wearing too, as teenager William Morales, from Key West, Florida, discovered to his cost when police almost shot him, believing his gun-shaped belt-buckle to be a real handgun. According to news reports, they were "milliseconds" away from firing at the teen, which just goes to show: fashion can be dangerous. (As anyone who's ever tried wearing 5" heels can probably testify…)

Snow a no-show in Triangle; drizzles linger early
Posted March 3, 2016
Updated March 4, 2016
Raleigh, N.C. — A winter weather advisory settled into southern Virginia on Friday morning, but temperatures didn't get cold enough for the Triangle to see any snow.
Light rain lingered around Raleigh early in the morning, and a low pressure system squatting off the coast will rotate more moisture through the area, said WRAL meteorologist Elizabeth Gardner.
"We're not finished with the rain," Gardner said, "but from here on out, it's going to be fairly light. We'll have drizzles, some patchy rain. It's not going to be heavy enough to really cause any big issues on the roads this morning."
The chance of precipitation shuts off around 8 a.m., and the Triangle will stay dry leading into the weekend.

Lulu's at Kailua, Kona was a really hard to miss restaurant on Alii Dr. It's got a great location, right across from the ocean. It's on the second floor, so it's got a great view of the ocean for its customers. At night this place looks really flashy, bright with neon lights, and the music was always pumping. It definitely looked like one of the very young and happening place to eat at. It only looked like it was a cool place to eat at.
This was a bar/restaurant. We got there for dinner, and sat ourselves at a table. We waited for a long time for the waiter to come, long enough for us to think if we're supposed to go up to the bar to order food, long enough for us to consider hopping to another restaurant. Maybe 10 – 15 minutes later, the waiter finally showed up with their menu. The menu had regular bar food, burgers, wings, and sandwiches. When we asked the waiter what was good there, he answered unenthusiastically: 'well, everything'. It was not very convincing.
I wasn't in the mood to swallow another big greasy burger, so I ordered a Grilled Mahi Mahi Sandwich. We also asked for waters when we order our food, and guess when the water came. The water came with our food, which was another 20 minutes of wait, what kind of restaurant does that?
When the food finally came, it looked unimpressive. My Grilled Mahi Mahi was a little dry, but it wasn't horrible. Maybe my expectations of it gone down with its looks. My friend however, could not swallow her food. She got a Vegetarian Quesadilla, she said it was nasty, so I didn't even bother trying it when she offered.
We were so wrong about this place. The decor was grungy, 'hip', but it was also very sleazy. The music you hear when you drive by, was from the restaurant downstairs. They actually played really horrible 80's music. It really felt like they were stuck in a time warp back in the early 90's when the things used to be cool, is not so cool anymore.
Tourist trap, the people who gave 5 stars for this place, must have been drunk out of their minds.

ST. PETERSBURG — The Rays brass stood pat at Friday's nonwaiver trade deadline, saying it's confident some of the struggling hitters would turn it around and the starting pitching would become more consistent down the stretch.
A few hours later, the Rays players — for one night, at least — showed they were up to the task in an 8-2 victory over the Royals.
There were a couple of slumping sluggers, Carlos Peña and Pat Burrell, coming through with the kind of performances the Rays need from them in the final few months if they want to climb in the American League East.
There was catcher Dioner Navarro hitting a home run for the first time in almost a month.
And there was left-hander David Price bouncing back with, arguably, the best outing of his rookie season.
Peña said they like that the team stayed intact (other than reliever Joe Nelson getting optioned to Triple A after the game). And the players plan to reward the faith.
"I'm telling you it's in there. These guys are talented. All that stuff is within them," manager Joe Maddon said. "We just have to keep showing confidence. It's all about confidence, and if we can get a couple good games in a row for some of these guys, there's no telling what they're going to do because they've done it before."
Granted, the Royals (40-62) boast the American League's worst record (and worst offense) and Sidney Ponson hadn't won in nearly three months. But the victory could become a confidence-boost, especially for Price, whose performance netted him just his third win in his past nine starts.
Price (4-4) said a key was fastball command and not just throwing strikes, "but quality strikes," resulting in seven innings and just one run.
"I definitely felt good," Price said. "It was just one of those nights where everything goes your way."
Peña and Burrell helped supply the offense with Peña hitting a three-run homer and Burrell picking up a couple of hits (including a rare triple). And rapper Flo Rida provided the postgame entertainment for the Tropicana Field crowd of 26,596 following another victory on a Summer Concert Series night.
More important, the win allowed the Rays (56-47) to stay within 41/2 games of the Red Sox for the wild card and move within 6 of the first-place Yankees.
Peña said he, Burrell and Navarro have talked a lot recently about putting their previous struggles behind them.
"All that matters," Peña said, "is what are you going to do for your team tonight."
Peña's homer in the first inning, just his third in his past 26 starts, hit off the leftfield foul pole for the first time in his career ("not even Little League.")
Burrell hit just the 15th triple of his 10-year career — with Maddon saying they kept the ball.
"Sometimes, it's just about being patient. And all of a sudden, the positive explosion occurs," Maddon said. "And I really believe our guys are going to do that."

Sustainable Sites Initiative: Canal Park
The efforts made by the U.S Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system has introduce a popular way to quantify the sustainability of commercial building. Until recently constructed landscapes have lacked a similar rating system.
The efforts made by the U.S Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system has introduce a popular way to quantify the sustainability of commercial building. Until recently constructed landscapes have lacked a similar rating system. The Sustainable Sites Initiative (SSI), organized by the American Society of Landscape Architects, Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, and the U.S. Botanic Garden, aims to define the sustainability standards associated with landscape architecture.
After 4 years and $2 million worth of research, SSI certification is ready for the spotlight. The SSI system rates the sustainability of the design, construction, and maintenance of landscapes, and is suitable for every type of constructed landscape, from suburban town halls to college campuses or urban parks. Landscapes are awarded points based on their proximity to public transportation, use of energy efficient materials, waste treatment, water use, and more. The full list of guidelines and performance benchmarks is available here (PDF).
Pilot Project
The design and construction of Canal Park in Washington, D.C., managed by the office OLIN, is serving as one of the main pilot projects for the SSI rating system. The park, which spans three blocks, was originally built as part of the District's Anacostia Waterfront Initiative, a 30 year restoration project. The canal was paved over in the late 1870s, a common practice by most cities at this time as water systems became unsanitary and outdated. Canal Park is also a former brownfield site and has been envisioned as a revitalized landscape to reconnect and restore the ecosystem services that were initially present.
The park will feature a wide array of amenities to make it attractive to varying users and functions. The three blocks of the park are each given individual characters that weave an interconnected urban social destination. The park's has three main components in the stromwater reuse system that includes a 200 meter linear rain garden, Low Impact Design tree pits, and two underground cisterns connected to neighboring buildings rooftops, that store 300 liters of water. This design is calculated to capture and treat 5.5 million liters each year that will be reused for irrigation, fountains, toilet flushing, and the ice skating path.
28 geothermal wells are located beneath the park, and will be a remarkable source of efficient energy supply. Other elements include the use of sustainably harvested wood for benches and architectural elements, electric car parking stations, bicycle parking and cross-streets designed to calm traffic speeds around the park and provide a safe shared space pedestrian environment.
It is too early to tell whether or not SSI will be as popular or commercially successful as LEED, but the two rating systems will certainly have a symbiotic relation going forward, and have the potential to evolve into a more unified, demanding, and tactile rating system.

There may be times when one will need an English to Spanish translator. As the world seems to get smaller with friends and business acquaintances now just as likely to be around the world than around the corner translation is even more important. This article will try to help point you in the direction of finding ways to translate English to Spanish for those who do not speak Spanish and are not lucky enough to have a friend to translate for you.
English to Spanish translation is not as difficult as it once was. These days, with computers and the Internet so readily accessible, you no longer have to find a human translator for your letters and documents. There are many web sites that offer translation software. With this software, you are able to have your words translated from English to Spanish.
You can also hire a company that offers a translator for English and Spanish. It is a good idea to ask if the English to Spanish translate is checked once it is done. If the company checks the order before it is returned to you mistakes are less likely. Translation mistakes can not only be embarrassing but in business situations they can be costly.
One additional way that you can translate English to Spanish is with an English to Spanish dictionary. These are readily available at book stores. The dictionary is the most difficult of the three ways to translate. To use the dictionary to translate you must be aware of certain ways of writing and saying things that are different than English rules. For example instead of saying, John's book, in Spanish you would have to write it as, the book of John. Not knowing these rules can make using the dictionary to translate very difficult for both you and the person you are sending the letter to.
As you can see, finding help for English to Spanish translation is not very difficult. With a little bit of time spent searching for the best resources for your needs, it can be done quickly and easily from the comfort of your own home.

Barbara Ann Boston Nelson passed away on January 3, 2012 at Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula, surrounded by her loving family. She faced her death with the same courage, grace, elegance and dignity in which she lived her life.
Born in Evanston, Illinois in 1939, she and her brother Robert were the children of Elizabeth and John Robert Boston. As a young girl, Barbara moved to Fayetteville, Arkansas, and later attended Antioch College in Ohio. She received a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Master's Degree in Speech and Drama from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois and a Master's Degree in Special Education from Dominican University in San Rafael. She taught English and Drama among other subjects serving on the faculty of the Chicago Teachers College, Menlo College and the Dominican University. She later attended JFK University and received a Master's in Clinical Psychology on her way to becoming a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Barbara enjoyed and maintained a private practice in Danville, Pacific Grove, and Monterey, CA, for nearly 25 years, until she retired in 2008.
Barbara was a passionate student of Jungian Psychology. She pursued formal studies at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara and with the Sandplay Therapists of America (STA). In recent years, she was part of a Jungian study group with therapist colleagues. Barbara was an active clinical teaching member of STA and the International Society for Sandplay Therapy. She was also a valued member of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists.
Barbara's contributions to the community were many. She was philanthropic in her energies and spirit with a keen eye for supporting various community and non-profit projects. She was instrumental in bringing training in Jungian-based Sandplay Therapy to local therapists and donated much of her personal Sandplay miniatures collection to the Kinship Center in Salinas. Barbara participated regularly, over many years, in a dynamic book group and in a memoirs writing group. As an enthusiastic member of the Casa Abrego Club in Monterey, Barbara often gave book presentations and initiated a reader's theater group which continues today. In addition, Barbara was an accomplished artist, particularly with beautiful collage and shadowbox creations, true delights to her family, friends, and colleagues. Many of these have been displayed in various art exhibits to support local causes.
In 1970 Barbara married Robert Nelson and enjoyed 42 wonderful years sharing a life filled with raising five children, travelling, embracing friends, and hosting family gatherings at their home in Maui. Barbara is survived by her husband, Bob, their 5 children (Susan Clancey, John Nelson, Ellen Kennard, Melissa Nelson, Rebecca Heiser) and 12 grandchildren (Andrew Clancey, Peter Clancey, George Nelson, Jack Nelson, Joseph Nelson, David Nelson, Kaitlin Kennard, Christopher Kennard, Kennah Brenneman, Elizabeth Brenneman, Eliana Heiser, and Ginevra Heiser).
Barbara was deeply grateful to the Santa Barbara Healing Sanctuary and the Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula for their exceptional and personalized care. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to:
The Santa Barbara Healing Sanctuary
c/o Marion Woodman Collection Endowment
PO Box 50157
Santa Barbara, CA 93150
Tax ID: 770225564
Or, to:
Community Hospital Foundation
Post Office Box HH
Monterey, CA 93942
A memorial service for Barbara will be held at The Church in the Forest in Pebble Beach on the 29th of January at 2PM.

May 2015!
Haven't had placenta previa, but wanted to send you hugs because I know how scary bleeding during pg is. I've read a lot of threads in Birth and Beyond where people have had partial/total previa that resolves/moves far enough away from the cervix that they can have a vaginal birth. Was your DD vaginal? Not sure if it would be more complicated for a VBAC. I would look around there and see if you can find something too. I really hope yours moves away and that you can have the birth you have planned! Keep us posted.
I didn't have it but my sister had partial previa (not the same I know) and it was scary enough to figure things out. The questions that were important to her were about the likelihood of the placenta moving far enough away from the cervix for her to deliver vaginally. They have to measure and it has to be within a certain amount that somewhat varies based on a providers comfort level. She was put on partial bed rest and complete pelvic rest. If she had any bleeding she was to let her provider know and any bright red blood or larger amount she was to go into the hospital immediately. She did have two times of bleeding that required going to the hospital and one-two weeks of spotting that had to be monitored. She had a few ultrasounds but there was no point to do it if she wasn't bleeding a concerning amount and wasn't dialating for delivery. A lot of her bleeding was the placenta moving away from the cervix as her uterus expanded. It moved enough that she was allowed to have a vaginal birth but was not able to do a homebirth. Her doctor was prepared for a possible hemmorhage but the birth went smoothly at 39 weeks and she had no issues with the placenta. It made for over 20 weeks of higher than normal stress for her pregnancy but birth and postpartum were a lot happier.
I would ask what amount of bleeding is ok if any and when to go to the ER?
Who to call while on the way so they can be prepared?
What is the likelihood of having to stay overnight in the hospital if you have a bleed? My sister had to and it was not expected really.
If a vaginal birth is still something they can consider, or wait and see about? How long to they, and you, feel comfortable waiting before the c-section vs vaginal birth decision is made? What is the cutoff date?
I would ask for specifics about bed rest. My sister did the best she could but her son was 18 months when her second was born. I was there to help every day but there is only so much sitting on the couch one can do with an active toddler- who, by the way- nursed all through the pregnancy and no doctor was concerned at all about that.
I hope that is somewhat helpful. I know it is not first person experience but I was at a lot of the mw appointments and did a lot of processing with her. Hugs mama, you still have a long time for this to possibly move, and if not, there are many that can support you with c-section recovery.

Oh man Chanel has done it again. It feels divine on the lips, so creamy and moisturizing! I get a lot of comments on how nice and smooth my lips look with this on though hehehe it is on the pricey side though :S
I would describe this as a sheer light warm rosy pink lipstick that has a subtle shimmer/ glossy look to it and great for everyday wear. It's my "lip shade but better" lipstick! However this isn't great for pigmented lips, and more suited to pale lips because of the light to medium coverage.
It doesn't bring out my chapped lips and doesn't crease due to the smooth buttery texture. The sheerness of the lipstick make it seem like a tinted lip balm, so I do need to apply this two or three times for the colour to show. It wears of pretty fast especially after eating so reapplication is a must after 2 or 3 hours.
Packaging is SO PRETTY. There is a silver metal plating on the black lid engraved with Chanel's logo, and the lipstick holder is gold with Chanel's logo engraved on the bottom. Feels so glamorous and expensive when you hold it! Very sturdy and travel friendly as it is very secure.

A slick and shimmer-free neutral midtone pink. Nice shade. But the formula is too lightweight for my liking, and some ingredient in it irritates my lips.

Absolutely a MLBB. I don't see any difference between my lips and this lipstick, however I do LOVE the formula and shine.

I got this on ebay - as a travel/mini size for about $10 shipped. I'm glad I didn't spend $$$ on the full size.
I do LOVE the formula. Feel slike MAC lustre formula to me, but a little more moisturizing.
However, there is DS brand dupe for this at a fraction of the cost: Maybelline Pink Me Up.
I thought that Darling was going to be more of a MLBB with a slight bit of pink to it - but it is way more pink on me. I am NC25 for reference. However, you might love it!

As other reviewers mentioned, this would be a polished, mlbb shade on the right skin tone. It didn't work for me; I'm PPP, and it brought out the red in my skin. I think it could look great on olive, beige, or golden girls. On my rosy lips Darling is a fair dupe of Mademoiselle Rouge Coco, but less red and more brown - worth trying if you're haunted by the Vanessa Paradis Rouge Coco ad. But Darling is also fairly sheer, and for $30 I expect something with more oomph.

This is quite different from the usual line up of rouge allures in that it is very sheer and the colour is quite the standard MLBB. I find this to be nice but not great. The colour is ordinary, I bought it because I found UD Naked a bit too blue tinged for me, so this is a nice substitute. What I do like about it is the fact that it lasts and lasts. A lot lighter than other rouge allures, you will like this if you are a little lipstick shy or dont usually wear them. This is fail safe and will always be appropriate, but its a little boring for me. The finish is satin. I actually prefer the finish of UD lipsticks better, they leave a nice gleam to it but isnt high shine. This is definitely a keeper but its the baseline lipstick or when I need to look as if I am not wearing anything. Goes with everything and anything.

This is such a beautiful lipstick. The texture is so creamy, and it's extremely hydrating for the lips. I think i will try a different shade next time since I have an olive complexion and the color seems a little orange on my lips. Other than that, the product itself is so beautiful, and for the price tag.. it should be!

RIS from lovely MUAer as Darling does not appear to be available in Europe (my case says made in USA whereas all my other RAs, including Naive-also bought in the US- say Made in France). I had to have this as evidently it is one of the colors Nicole Kidman wears, and we are skin and hair twins (minus botox and fillers). Darling is a gorgeous pinky brown MLBB color that leans warm. It is almost the color of my lips except a little too pink. It is similar to Tender but has a smidge more brown. I love the coverage and the pigmentation of this color and it makes a nice addition to my growing RA collection. I enjoy wearing this with a bare face and minimal makeup- heavy makeup can overpower this color.

Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
Among one of the countless things that Donald Trump has unjustly been accused of being racist for is his call for a temporary ban on Muslim immigration until the threat of ISIS is squashed. Apparently liberals think that Islam is a race, even though most Muslim I've ever met in my home-state has been white. How "progressive" to assume that every Muslim is an Arab.
Trump's policy has been misconstrued as saying that he wants to ban Muslims from living in America, which is a gross miss-characterization of what he actually advocated for. Jimmy Carter put some restrictions on Iranian immigration when they had Americans in captivity, but no one cried "Islamophobia" in the 1970s, because liberals hadn't yet invented such a pointless buzzword aimed at silencing dissent yet.
Also, are liberals forgetting that their most famous president, FDR, rounded up the Japanese and put them in internment camps? Trump's Muslim ban is moderate by comparison.
Trump isn't going to be deporting any Muslims, but they're threatening to self-deport if he's elected, as video reported in Hillary Daily shows:
The video is out of Dearborn, Michigan, a Muslim enslave in the US. In fact, it's the U.S. city with the highest density of Muslims.
Many of the Muslims there were offended by the phrase "radical Islam." Don't they realize that we use the phrase "radical Islam" to differentiate between peaceful Muslims and those who want to kill us? Do they wish we lumped them all together?
Do you think there's a single person interviewed in this video who can list a single policy that Trump proposed that will make life harder for Muslims in America? We live in a country where there are ten times more hate crimes against Jews than against Muslims – do we ever hear the Jews complaining about that? No, because they're too busy being productive to politicize their victim-hood.

Wash This Blood Clean from My Hand
Lorna Scott Fox writes:
Fred Vargas is a woman. Said to be the sixth best-selling author in France, she is unusual there in being a female crime writer, in contrast with women's dominance of the genre in Britain. Vargas also writes like a woman, if that implies an interest in character, feeling and motive, rather than 'brutality and eroticism' (Queneau's description of the polar – a contraction of policier – a genre inspired by the Série noire's postwar translations of American crime novels). There's a moment in her latest thriller, Un lieu incertain, when an armed punk breaks into the detective's home and starts throwing his weight around. The boy seems to have wandered in from some hard-boiled tale of urban dystopia, quite unlike the world Vargas has perfected over 13 police mysteries: fanciful, ironic, glancingly philosophical, freshly, even childishly funny – a retro-French whimsicality à la Prévert. Later it turns out that the boy was acting a part, goaded into it by the real murderer, and integrity is restored.

HELP! I just lost my sound in the middle of my almost finished song!!! Have no clue what happened...
K, so I was editing my song today, and it was starting to sound good, I was 90% finished. I walked away from my computer for a while, and it went into sleep mode. (something I try to avoid doing with ardour up, as it sometimes makes random things go wonky...).
Anyhow, I come back to listen through it again, and at around 3:30, the sound cuts out. All the little level indicators are still bobbin like they're supposed to, but no audio. And I mean no audio at all. Even once I back up to the beginning again (which was JUST working, still nothing.) I can't get any more sound from any part of the project. If I try to play anything from 3:30-3:35 this will happen. If I start the track after that, it plays to the end just fine. If I stop the track before that point, it plays fine. (It's effecting the exporting too btw). Restarting JACK doesn't do anything. If I restart ardour, or switch to another snapshot, the audio comes back, but only until it reaches that stinking 3:30 mark.
Some snapshots work fine, but my two most recent ones both have the problem. I put in about three hours of work on this song today.....I really don't want to do it all again. Pleeease help me :(
@kmartin: what does the JACK DSP load look like during the 3:30-3:35 section? Its shown in the display window of qjackctl and at the top/bottom of the ardour window (depending on whether you are on Linux or OS X). What (if any) plugins are you using?
Sir, I officially love you. Sorry for being such so dunb, but you have fixed my problem! DSP load was almost 15% when the crash happened. I was using some compressors and reverbs, and I had a couple unnecessary plugins going by accident too. I removed all the plugins, and now it works fine!
15 % DSP load should be no problem at all. I'd bet it was one of the plugins you used. You could also what jack reports when this happens (via the qjackdctl messaged if you are using it or via the console output of jack).
But good that it works again :)
Actually, I figured out what happened. I assumed 15% was too much, cause I'm using a crappy old PC. (just got my new i7 laptop a couple weeks ago, haven't switched over yet :D). Once I took out all the plugins, it played, but there was a hiccup. I found a gain automation on one track that shot all the way down to minimum and back up again. Idk how it got there, but I took it out, and it's working fine again, even with all the plugins. Thanks for all the help :)
Hello, I have had a quit similar problem a few days ago.
I am using Ardour 2.8.11 on AVLinux. I have mixed a song and everything works fine. Then, one day I load this song in ardour in order to work on it, but playing the song I hear nothing but I see all the meters lightening, except the master metering!
First idea: check audio setup, but everthings fine. For instance hydrogen works fine with jack. Then I start to soloing my tracks one after another in Ardour. If I soloing a track, I hear the recorded music of this track. After trying around, I found out, that in a bus I am using a DJEQ plugin. If I delete this plugin, everything works fine and I hear every audio track, else, with the plugin I hear nothing, if this plugin is in the bus. (In fact not each audio track is routed through this bus, but if the plugin is active, it seems that nothing reaches the master bus?)
I don't know whats going wrong because this plugin first works.I have replaced the EQ and now I have no problems with this song.
@tsindt: you might find these work quite well :)

text: Hi folks, Im after a bit of advise, After some slippery experiences in the wet and examining my odd and differentially worn tyres i've decided for a change. I realise this would be the best oppotunity to play with the wheel alignment. EEs' report suggests a negative chamber of -1.0 to -1.5 and about 5 degs toe out (front). I have a number of questions really: Is this easy and cheap to do? How does this affect the tyre wear? is this effective at improving the handling when aligned with the standard S3 suspension set up? While doing all this are there any other alignment or related issues I should be awhere of or consider? thanks for any help

PRZOOM - /newswire/ -
Jacksonville, FL, United States, 2011/06/16 - Majestic People Groups Australian Subsidiary SGS Technolgie Australia Pty Ltd has won a prestigious iconic Mobile technology project that will complement the Australian City of Parramattas move towards a smarter city - SGStechnologies.net.
Mobile Concierge, was announced this month by the Hon. Andrew Stoner MP, Deputy Premier of NSW, Australia and Parramattas Smart City consortium was chosen as one of 11 successful applications to help build the States digital economy.
Its been almost 12 months since Council launched ParraConnect as part of our Smart City concept and this funding is another step towards ensuring were at the forefront of digital technology, Parramatta Lord Mayor, Cr John Chedid, said.
This is an iconic project that will not only create jobs and provide economic benefits but also has the potential to dramatically change the way we do business.
The launch of the program in Parramatta will see participants use smartcards or Near Field Communication (NFC) Mobile Phones to shop from participating retailers, allowing workers, residents and visitors the opportunity purchase goods or services remotely creating a virtual marketplace.
Paramatta Smart City Project
Consortium Lead:
ST Microelectronics Leading global technology company ($10b annually)
Consortium Partners:
SGS Technologie (sgstechnologies.net) International player in integration and Cloud technology (Subsidiary of Majestic People Group, US based and having Global development & support center headquartered in Coimbatore, India).
Salt Mobile NSW, Australia expert in mobile delivery and payments
WatchData Provides mobile NFC and form-factors
The smart cards also have the capacity to hold large amounts of information and could be used to access car-parks, work buildings, libraries and used as part of loyalty programs.
Frank Dorrian, SGS Technologie ANZ Country Director and SMART CITY Program Manager, said that although contactless smart cards, (NFC) micro payments, and smart-phones are all available as individual applications this is the first time they have been consolidated into a secure mobile ecosystem.
This new smart ecosystem could re-invigorate the traditional city centres of Australian cities and allow small retailers to compete on a level playing field with their super-mall counterparts through mobile ordering and payments, he said.
The solution that were launching in Parramatta has already attracted interest nationally and internationally which is a strong reflection of the demand for modern solutions that keep pace with business development.
The consortium lead for this project is STMicroelectronics, a major global technology company, and following on from what will be a successful launch in Parramatta the potential is for this initiative to spread to other parts of the country.
Jean-Claude Pellicer, country manager for STMicroelectronics, which was awarded the supply of QANTAS frequent flyer cards last year, said that the expertise of the consortium group that has been put together will ensure Parramattas Smart City vision is realised.
Ravi Dhandapani, Vice-President of Majestic People Group who heads the Global development efforts and based in Coimbatore, India said We have been developing user-friendly Rich mobile applications for various government clients in the US especially in Florida state and other global markets for the past 7 years. We are greatly honoured by this project win and our top-notch team will extend our expertise to the Australian government to fulfil the vision of SMART CITY. We are also looking to establish and grow our business in the ANZ region substantially in the coming years based on the success of this project. Also we are looking to extend and localize this solution to the other growing markets like India and China in the near future.

Unmarked Locations
Unmarked Locations are areas you may come across when traveling from town to town. Encountering an unmarked location is slightly random, but the road you take will affect the chance of finding one. See the Traveling and Preparation page for info on traveling and the three types of roads you can take.
There are four types of Unmarked Locations. Each is sort of a short mission sequence that can be completed before continuing on. From time to time, you may come across a Survivor randomly in one of these Unmarked Locations.
From time to time your vehicle will break down. When this happens, you must find a part to repair the car before heading out again. The area that contains the repair part will also contain a few other supplies and several Walkers. If you want to be quick about it, follow the compass to the part and head directly back to the vehicle.
EditScavenge Chance
Sometimes you will get the chance to scavenge for supplies. Choose to stop and pick up some supplies before reaching the next town. Of course, there will be Walkers in the area.
EditLow on Fuel
Obviously, one of the options for Unmarked Locations will be running out of fuel. This can be prevented by having your Survivors search for fuel in towns, taking roads that don't use too much fuel, and using vehicles that don't consume too much.
If you reach a Low on Fuel area, you'll have to find fuel and bring it back to the vehicle before moving on. If you don't, you can always try at another location after getting a little fuel at the current one.
EditRoad Blocked
Every now and then you may run into a blocked road. You will be given the option of taking an alternate path, or you can simply get out of the vehicle and push the block off the road. Clearing the road is the easiest, but it's also very dangerous with Walkers around.
If you happen to take an alternate path and run out of fuel, the game will end without running into the Low on Fuel Unmarked Location.

Eagles put 12 in the box from the start and our "fans" complain about not enough run plays.
buy or sell - we sack Vick ONCE or more.
I guess I'll buy since we're on a roll but I don't feel all that confident.
B/S - Jeremy Maclin : 100+ yards receiving?
B/S Vick has at least 350 all purpose yards
Can we rent? because Im more than a little nervous about this game. Which Texans team will show up? The team that crushes you in heartbreaking fashion or the team in which no lead is safe.
Im afraid tonight it could be both but i dont know which.
You forgot the team that doesnt show up for three quarters and makes a heart pounding comeback in the fourth.
by or sell - we make a great comeback in the fourth quarter and win the game on a FG from Rackers.
Sell. It'll be a David Akers FG
B/S - Amobi Okoye gets more pressures and hurries.
uhhhhh buy???? not quantitative.
B/S - AJ has the game high of receiving yards......over maclin and jackson as well.
B/S - Arian gets 100 yds by half time.
He has 200 total yards from scrimmage by games end.
B/S - Vick gets knock out of the game
I don't understand why AJ would rip his helmet off and knock his azz out, they aren't on the field at the same time?????
Oh you mean in general.....HAHAHAHA
Separate names with a comma.

The '90s are back. Although I've been a little skeptic about it (too many years judging my mother's looks on photographs, I'd say), rainbow hair and denim jackets eventually changed my mind. Which brings me to a late '80s-early '90s trend I didn't think I'd see again but in 90210 marathon: the knotted tee. Or do you find this object useful?
Knotting it up — the easiest trick of styling ever — has made a major comeback these past seasons. Whether in Kristen Stewart's new-grunge approach or in Alexa Chung's basic manners, the knot brings a little messy, relaxed flair to your ensemble.
Today's Fashionista knows it. Wearing a flowered-printed sleeveless shirt as the key piece of her ensemble, the knot, along with studded sneakers, turns rebellious what would've been a girly-girl look otherwise. A leather satchel and a delicate, coin-shaped necklace make sure her bohemian vogue is not left behind.
Tie the knot of a NASTY GAL oversized chiffon shirt, or of a worn out Urban Vintagers tee, and casually turn your look cool. Would you rather knot?

Kellen Reid plays every game for his late mother, but aims to carry her legacy beyond the soccer pitch
COPPELL — For the last two seasons, Kellen Reid has wiped away scoring chances for opponents of Coppell's powerhouse soccer team. The defender has marked shifty attackers, cleared dangerous crossing passes and organized the back line of the Cowboys' stingy defense.
"He's been the anchor," coach Chad Rakestraw said.
Reid did most of it while an anchor of his life, his mother, battled lung cancer. The 21/2-year fight ended March 2 when Caroline Reid, a 49-year-old mother of three, died peacefully, surrounded by her family.
Kellen Reid hasn't missed a game since then. The two-year captain is a guiding force for the defending Class 5A state champions, and as Coppell (16-1-2) prepares for its playoff opener Thursday against Grapevine, he's still smiling, laughing and living the way his mom wanted him to.
And he's playing the game she loved to watch, especially when her sons were on the field.
"It's an honor to play for her," he said.
Shocking diagnosis
Kellen, 18, is the middle son of John and Caroline Reid. His older brother, Harper, also played soccer for Coppell and is a 20-year-old sophomore at Texas A&M. Their younger brother, Ty, is 11 and in the fifth grade.
The parents tried to be straightforward with their sons when the cancer was originally diagnosed in the summer of 2011. It was a shocking diagnosis, especially because Caroline was a nonsmoker, but the American Cancer Society estimates that every year more than 16,000 Americans die from lung cancer despite never having smoked.
The news was devastating. But John and Caroline wanted life to go on as normal as possible for their sons.
"We knew what we were up against," John said. "We were just doing our best and taking it day by day."
For Kellen, day by day meant a lot of soccer. The star defender for Coppell, which is No. 1 in the area 5A rankings, also plays for FC Dallas Premier 96 and has signed with Trinity University. Whatever uniform he's wearing, the soccer field brings peace.
"Soccer is just kind of like an escape for me," he said. "It gets my mind off things."
It also lets him focus on the sport he loves — and the team that depends on him. Coppell senior forward Chris Madden, who also plays for FC Dallas Premier 96, said Kellen is the kind of disciplined, hard-working player who "always does the right things and you don't have to worry about."
That stayed true even when Kellen had so much reason to worry.
"He's so good at dealing with it," Madden said, "but I know it's really tough. He has a younger brother, too, who he has to set an example for."
On the field, Kellen is the one who sets the example. Watching his determination, focus and energy, nobody could imagine what he's been going through.
"He's never missed a practice or a game," Rakestraw said, "and just to be the captain that he has been the last two years and to lead the way he does, it's unbelievable."
Great memories
Kellen smiles as he talks about his mom. He remembers before he was in school, maybe 4 or 5 years old, when he and his mom would go to the mall for cookies or bagels. He remembers all the trips to soccer practices with his mom at the wheel. He remembers the family vacations, which were often wrapped around soccer events, such as a tournament in Arizona.
"Nationals were in Phoenix, so we toured the Grand Canyon. We drove there and made a bunch of stops," he said. "That was probably the best trip."
When the family returned from that trip, Caroline got the diagnosis. She started chemotherapy, and a few months later, things were looking better. Kellen was also making progress on the field, and as a sophomore in January of 2012, he earned a spot on the varsity team.
"I brought him to Midland for a tournament just to get him some playing time," Rakestraw said, "and he ended up never coming off the field for the rest of the year."
It was an exciting time for Kellen and his parents, who were able to watch their oldest sons play side by side. But that same month, doctors discovered the cancer had spread to Caroline's brain.
After that, the battle included two bouts with pneumonia, another with meningitis and rounds of experimental chemotherapy. There were complications that led to stays in the intensive-care unit as last year's Coppell team worked toward a state title.
"The great thing," John said, "was that although she was in and out of the hospital, she did get to enjoy that state championship year."
Caroline loved watching her sons play soccer. And regardless of how she felt, she always wanted to go to the Coppell games. Sometimes she watched from the car, which could be parked to give a good view of the action.
In the last few weeks before her death, Caroline could no longer watch the soccer games from the stands or in the car. But when Kellen took the field, he thought of his mom.
He still does.
"Before the game, I think about her and that kind of calms me down and gets all the nerves out," he said. "During breaks in the game, my mind will wander off to her sometimes. It's not a bad thing."
It's a good thing, actually. Kellen can think of how his mother is at peace, free of the pain. He's also reminded, as he takes the field with his teammates who have supported him "from day one," how much his mother loved to watch him play.
Caroline's greatest love was watching her sons plays soccer, her obituary stated. "She was a soccer mom first class."
She was also a first-class person. She was positive and selfless, Kellen said, the way he wants to be.
That's why, although Kellen hopes to honor his mother with another state championship, he wants to honor her memory in much greater ways.
"Not just playing soccer, but everyday life," he said. "Just having her live through me and displaying the same attributes she had."

Study of Judges Finds Evidence From Brain Scans Led to Lighter Sentences
The New York Times:
Judges who learned that a convicted assailant was genetically predisposed to violence imposed lighter sentences in a hypothetical case than they otherwise would have, researchers reported on Thursday, in the most rigorous study to date of how behavioral biology can sway judicial decisions.
The findings, published in the journal Science, are likely to accelerate the use of brain science in legal proceedings, experts said, and to intensify a long-running debate about its relevance. Courts have increasingly admitted such evidence — brain scans, mostly, as well as genetic analyses — though many experts say the science is still too primitive to inform legal decisions.

Get Your Dog Care Questions Answered by Experts
I would ask your veterinarian for a dermatologist referral. Chronic ear infections are usually the result of allergies and they have very specialized training in this. I have seen many dogs come back with some different types of treatments for the ears that work after seeing a dermatologist. Expect that they may want you to change his diet, because many times the allergies is related to a component in the dogs food.
If you want to try this without seeing a dermatologist then consider allergies to be the biggest factor. Try a food trial using IVD duck and potato or venison and potato. With a food trial the dog cannot have any other foods or treats by mouth. It will take 8-12 weeks to see results. Start your dog on antihistamines. You can try benedryl at a dose of 1mg per pound three times daily. It would be best to get this most recent ear issue cleared with either antibiotics or antifungals first depending on which type of infection he has bacterial or yeast. His ears should be flushed daily while he is having a problem either using a cleanser that the veterinarian has prescribed or mixing vinegar and water. Fill the ear canal completely, massage at the base, let him shake his head, then wipe away the excess with a soft cloth. This can be repeated. There are a number of antihistamines on the market for dogs with allergies and this usually is a trial and error process. Zyrtec and Claritin are now recently being used with some amazing results.
Good Luck

Could anyone do with a digital-artist? - MikeBeecham - 2007-06-06 15:15
Hi there guys,
I've been so blown away with XBMC since I got it, I really feel that I would now like to give something back. I cant code or do anything technical on the XBMC side, but I do know how to design.
If anyone could use another pair of Photoshop hands then please let me know as I would be more than happy to help out where needed. I have over 7 years photoshop experience, and have run my own Graphic Design business.
Some of my digital artwork can be found at http://mikebeecham.deviantart.com
No worries if no-one needs anything, but I wanted to make the offer!
- MikeBeecham - 2007-06-06 22:43
I just thought that I would spend an hour or so creating a fairly decent mock-up, based on Acer's new media centre...not sure what you guys think?
- pike - 2007-06-06 22:55
maybe you want to join Team XBMC and create graphics for us when the need arises ?
any good with animations ?
- MikeBeecham - 2007-06-06 22:56
Never done animations to be honest..having only really created 2d Work (again, http://mikebeecham.deviantart.com)...
If the offer to join team XBMC is open then I would more then welcome a conversation at some stage.

Im loving the mock-up, looks nice and simple
- dfmos - 2007-06-07 03:20
mikebeecham - you should try and make this into a skin...
If I wasn't busy doing my x-cite skin I wud love to give you a hand
- Livin - 2007-06-07 04:29
That looks great.
I thought you were looking for someone to work on the icons and such with you... Maybe I'm thinking of someone else?
- Deff - 2007-06-07 07:08
Nice work there mike, certainly hope to see some of it in up coming skins. I might even lend my hand to it some day when I get more time, loving XBMC as well!!!!
- Deff - 2007-06-07 07:11
...in fact...
If you want a hand to create the mockup you have there I would be keen to help out, been meaning to learn skinning for the XBMC previously done skinning for Winamp and was even invited to Redmond to help with skns for MediaPlayer for WinXP back in the day.
- MacGyver - 2007-06-07 18:18
hey mike, nice artwork on your page.
i don't have much time to finish anything, my Verve skin suffered from that.
But I do get time from time to time, and I can code screens pretty quick.
But I should only try to help on a 1 screen at a time basis.
All that said, if you have a link to acers media player, and you create the graphic elements, and show me a mock-up of the screen you want, I can re-create just about anything. My Verve skin was started by a request from someone to emulate another media center, and I made the video menu in about 30 minutes and used a bug in the graphic engine to create reflections (it was the first skin to have reflections), so if you really want to recreate the acer media center I'll help when I can. I have no artistic talent what so ever, but I can emulate and figure anything out given enough time.
:) - NineT9mustang - 2007-06-09 20:32
Wow, Finally a skin I think I would like! I'm pretty picky about skins, theres some real nice ones out there, but nothing that completly grabs my attention... but that mockup you made, absolutly love the layout
I sure hope you continue work with this skin and you get the help you need, I'd love to see this on the TV Mike, great skills you have friend!
- MikeBeecham - 2007-06-09 23:25
dude...thanks for that mate.
At the moment it's definately nothing more than a mock-up. I would need to learn how to skins, which is a difficulty I think...certainly something that would take a while to grasp.
Who knows though, eh?
- Wordily - 2007-06-10 00:41
I think what theese people are suggesting is that you do the art and they do the technical bits, coding and such, you'd just supply pictures as you see fit and they tell you what size....etc it needs to be, a team effort if you will.
Meaning you wouldn't have to learn any new skills as such, just work your magic.
But wow the mock up is lurvely, if you take the offer to join team XBMC then i really do think you can add to the project.
- MikeBeecham - 2007-06-10 01:19
Hi Shorty,
Thanks so much for the input mate. I'm not sure the offer was actually a genuine offer, but it would be so much of a priveledge to offer whatever design help I could.
It would be great to have a working version of the mockup...I'm not sure how easy it would be to code, but I reckon it would be fun!
- pike - 2007-06-10 02:14
It sure was a genuine offer mike, but currently I'm not aware of any graphics we might be in need of, SMokehead &/ Jezz_X knows better.
I'm still trying to reach them to see what we could "use you for", hehe

improved installer script
With the current installer it is not possible to install JabRef without admin permissions. This restriction is not needed. I'm the author of your Windows installer script, so hereby I provide a changed script that allows it.
I attached the changed installer script.
improved installer script
Applied in JabRef 2.9 beta 2. Let's see, how it works out.
We shipped the 2.9b2 version using the old setup.nsi file, because there were some errors I couldn't figure out:
First I got this one:
!define: "VERSION" already defined!
After commenting out that line, I got the following:
!include: could not find: "fileassoc.nsh"
On Win7, I'm not asked for admin privileges.
Wow, I got a reply after 5 years. Things have changed a lot in the meantime, but I will have a look at the installer again this weekend.
I think, the current installer works without admin permissions, doesn't it?

According to IMDB.com, Christopher Smith's medieval Black Plague flick "Black Death" is scheduled to land on Video On Demand February 4, 2011, and a DVD release sometime around that date, I presume. No word on a theatrical release date, though, and one is probably not forthcoming anytime soon in all likelihood. In the meantime, here are some new images from the movie.
With Medieval England having fallen under the shadow of the Black Death, a young monk called Osmund (Eddie Redmayne) is charged with leading fearsome knight Ulric (Sean Bean) and his group of mercenaries to a remote marsh. Their quest is to hunt down a necromancer — someone able to bring the dead back to life. Torn between his love of God and the love of a young woman, Osmund discovers the necromancer, a mysterious beauty called Langiva (Carice van Houten). After Langiva reveals her Satanic identity and offers Osmund his hearts desire, the horror of his real journey begins.
Starring Sean Bean, Carice van Houten, Eddie Redmayne, Kimberley Nixon, David Warner, Tim McInnerny, John Lynch, Andy Nyman, Johnny Harris, Emun Elliott and directed by Christopher Smith.

Bile duct cancer is a rare malignancy that calls for a strong multidisciplinary approach to treatment. Physician specialists at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin treat many patients with bile duct tumors every year, and they are familiar with the subtleties of this unusual disease.
Bile Duct Cancer Overview
One of the key functions of the liver is to produce bile, a thick fluid that helps the body digest fats. Bile is transported from the liver to the intestines through long, tube-like structures called bile ducts. A network of bile ducts branch throughout the liver. In addition, a specific branch of the biliary system called the cystic duct drains bile stored in the gallbladder. The entire system converges to a common channel and drains into the small intestines.
Cholangiocarcinoma is a cancerous tumor that originates in a bile duct. About 10 percent of these tumors arise in a part of the biliary system that is inside the liver. These cancers are known as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas. These intrahepatic bile duct tumors are treated in much the same way as other primary liver tumors (for treatment details and more, see our liver cancer section).
The majority of bile duct tumors, approximately 90 percent, arise in a bile duct that is outside the liver. These cancers are known as extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Tumors of this type often obstruct the flow of bile, causing it to back up into the liver. This leads to the symptoms of yellow skin (jaundice) and itching. Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma can also lead to liver and kidney dysfunction, malnutrition, and infection of the bile (cholangitis).
Only a few thousand new cases of extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma are diagnosed in the U.S. every year. Gastrointestinal inflammatory conditions can increase a person's risk of developing this cancer.
Treatment for bile duct cancer depends on the location, type and extent of the tumor. Patients need a multidisciplinary care plan that incorporates all potential therapies in the treatment decisions and plans.
Surgery offers the only potential cure for bile duct cancer. If the tumor is located in a part of the biliary system that is within the liver (intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma), surgeons will typically remove the affected bile duct as well as the section of the liver that it drains. (For more information, see liver cancer surgery.)
Tumors growing in a bile duct outside the liver can be treated in different ways depending on the location of the tumor. When the tumor is in a section of the bile duct close to the liver, surgery often includes removal of a portion of the liver. When the tumor is nearer to the end of the bile duct, surgery may include removal of part of the pancreas. After a portion of the extrahepatic bile duct has been removed, surgeons perform a reconstruction procedure to attach the remaining bile duct directly to the small bowel. Extensive workups, including scans and endoscopy, are necessary to identify the patients most likely to benefit from surgery.
Radiation Therapy
Following surgery to remove an extrahepatic bile duct tumor, a pathologist examines all resected tissues. If the examination reveals that the surgery was unable to remove the entire tumor, or if cancer cells have spread to nearby lymph nodes, patients may undergo radiation with chemotherapy in an attempt to eradicate remaining cancer cells. Radiation oncologists at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin have access to a variety of radiotherapy systems capable of precisely targeting tumors while sparing healthy tissue.
Some extrahepatic bile duct tumors are too extensive to be removed by surgery. For these patients, radiation therapy in various combinations with chemotherapy can be used to try to control the cancer. Typically, external beam radiation is delivered concurrently with low-dose chemotherapy.
Drug Therapy
Extrahepatic bile duct cancers that are inoperable may be eligible for treatments that include chemotherapy and radiation therapy. For patients who are not good candidates for radiation treatment, chemotherapy alone is an alternative.
Interventional Radiology
When an intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma recurs following surgery, selected patients can benefit from minimally invasive interventional radiology procedures that deliver treatment to the site of the cancer. (Learn more about IR therapies for liver cancer.)
Interventional radiologists also perform minimally invasive stenting procedures to treat bile duct blockages and strictures caused by extrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas. A stent is a thin, flexible tube inserted into a duct to keep it open. Relieving bile duct blockages and strictures can help restore liver function, enabling patients to tolerate chemotherapy. A bile duct stent can also serve as a conduit for other therapies, such as the placement of radiation brachytherapy.
Clinical Trials
Patients with bile duct cancer may be eligible for novel therapies conducted under clinical trial protocols. See the clinical trials page for a complete list of investigational treatments currently available at Froedtert & The Medical College of Wisconsin.

Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) is a rich source of important nutrients such as minerals and antioxidants. In addition, its edible tissues contain high levels of omega-3 fatty acids which are recommenced for a healthy diet. Raw leaves, stems and buds have been reported to contain high levels of oxalate and, therefore, they are not recommended for regular consumption for people who have a tendency to form kidney stones. In this study the fresh leaves, stems and buds contained respectively 23.45±0.45, 5.58±0.18 and 9.09±0.12 g total oxalates kg-1 fresh weight. The stems and buds contained a mean of 75.0% soluble oxalates while the leaves contained only 27.5% soluble oxalates. Boiling the leaves, stems and buds resulted in a loss of soluble oxalates from the tissue which resulted an overall 27% reduction in total oxalate in the tissues. Pickling the whole plant resulted in a loss of soluble oxalates from the tissue by leaching into the vinegar, resulting in a reduction of total oxalate content of the pickled tissue by 16%. Larger leaves contained 40% more total oxalates than the small leaves while the oxalate content of the stems ranged between 4.9 and 6.2 g total oxalates kg-1 fresh weight. The leaves contained 33% soluble oxalate while in contrast the stems contained a mean of 67% soluble oxalates. Overall, the results of this experiment confirm that cooking and pickling purslane reduces the soluble oxalate content of the processed tissue. Reduction in the soluble oxalate concentration of the tissue will reduce the potential of this high oxalate containing plant to increase urinary oxalate output which could then lead to an increased incidence of kidney stones. This is particularly important as purslane has a number of positive nutritional attributes which suggest that it should be part of a healthy diet.

SJU Celebrates Election of Pope Francis
Thursday, March 14, 2013
More than 1 billion Catholics witnessed the introduction of a new pope yesterday. Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio has been elected as the new leader of the church. He will be known as Pope Francis and will be officially installed on March 19, the Feast of Saint Joseph.
Pope Francis, the former Archbishop of Buenos Aires, is the first Pontiff to hail from the American continent and the first to come from the Jesuit order. As a Catholic, Jesuit university, Saint Joseph's is excited to welcome the new papal leader. C. Kevin Gillespie, S.J. '72, president of Saint Joseph's University, released the following statement:
"This is a time of celebration -- of our faith, of our respective missions and of the Jesuit tradition. We offer congratulations to Pope Francis and look forward to a period of great community in the Church. We share the world's fascination with the new Pontiff as he embraces the enormous challenges of our times in the humble spirit of Ignatius."
In the clip below, 6ABC visits campus to hear from papal expert William Madges, Ph.D., dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, and to get reaction from students. Skip to 2:12 to watch.

Yay, glad to hear it was a success!
This is going on my wish list. BTW, most of the other bonnets & sleep caps & pillow cases are made of or lined with synthetic satin, which means they're going to be hot -- they just don't breathe. And I can't stand it near my skin. Silk breathes, so it will be cooler when you are warm, but silk is also warm when it's cool. So I doubt it would be too hot under most circs.
Funny about your mom's observation/lack of further comment!
