Bellevue Reporter
By Sens. Joe Fain, Andy Hill, Steve Litzow and Rodney Tom
Two weeks ago we joined a bipartisan majority of state senators to present a long-term sustainable budget that doesn't spend more money than the state expects to collect. This proposal not only addresses the remaining 16 months left in the current two-year budget cycle, but also the next two-year budget cycle through mid-2015. Families and small businesses face serious consequences if they do not live within their means and plan for the future; state government is no different.
We represent our constituents with the shared belief that education is the single most important part of maintaining and improving our state. Since the initial Senate budget proposal, we have worked to restore not only all basic-education funding but also other key services as well.
One of the programs for which we have been able to restore funding is called Working Connections Child Care; it helps educate our youngest children while allowing their parents to pursue their own education or work goals putting them on a path to self-sufficiency.
Like many of you, we were concerned about the education-policy changes in the initial budget, but we also knew those concerns would be addressed before a final budget was approved. Despite the silence due to the lack of cooperation during negotiations, we have taken it upon ourselves to not waste time and instead used this past week to create solutions.
On Thursday morning, alongside many of our Senate colleagues, we released a new budget that addresses the concerns we had regarding support for education and programs that aid the most vulnerable. This updated Senate proposal is a viable approach that prioritizes long-term sustainability and restores all K-12 and higher education funding without making cuts to basic education or levy-equalization payments, which keeps K-12 and higher education intact.
The last thing our schools or colleges need is a shortsighted approach that guarantees yet another budget deficit next year. The House proposes to invent a "13th month" for accounting purposes and shove all our problems there. If that plan were approved, we would be looking at a projected $2.1 billion shortfall next year. A deficit of this magnitude would pose a dangerous threat to basic education and devastate higher education. We are working together to shield the next generation from these attacks on their future.
We are dismayed with the gridlock in budget negotiations; that's why we stepped forward with a willingness to listen and lead. The House's refusal to consider our initial proposal has left us perplexed and disappointed. It is our hope that this new bipartisan plan will finally bring about a desire to work together.
We are firmly committed to delivering a budget that protects education and allows our state to live within its means now and in the future. We are confident that both chambers will work together to create a bipartisan plan a majority of lawmakers can support – a plan in which Washington residents can have confidence and one that still pursues the public's core priorities, even during times of economic uncertainty.
Sens. Joe Fain (R-47), Andy Hill (R-45), Steve Litzow (R-41) and Rodney Tom (D-48), serve on the Senate Early Learning and K-12 Education Committee, with Litzow as the ranking minority member. Sen. Tom chairs the Senate Higher Education Committee with Sen. Hill as the ranking minority member.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg addressing the New York Tech Meetup in 2011. The upcoming mayoral election will see the city's growing technology sector play a bigger role in politics.
New York's burgeoning technology sector wants to flex its newfound political muscle in this year's mayoral race, the first since digital companies coalesced in the city.
Leaders of the New York Tech Meetup, a 30,000-member group that draws professionals from start-ups and established tech companies in the city, are expected to approve a slate of policy proposals on Tuesday that will be reviewed by its rank-and-file before being presented to candidates running for citywide office, including those looking to succeed tech-friendly Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Among the potential policies: expanding low-cost broadband access, adding math and science classes in public schools and making government data more accessible.
"To make a difference in this and any other campaign, tech needs its Grover Norquist pledge," said Anil Dash, a New York Tech Meetup board member and entrepreneur, referring to the Club for Growth chief's no tax-increase promise. "It needs its list of demands."
The effort to inject a technology agenda into mayoral politics comes at a time when the industry is expanding in the city. The number of start-ups is growing, and larger publicly traded companies like Google Inc. and Facebook Inc. are increasing their footprints in Manhattan.
The meetup said its membership rose 30% in the past year, and the nonprofit group represents just a portion of the city's digital industries.
The city's prominent tech figures have already given to candidates expected to run in citywide elections this year, campaign-finance records show, a pattern likely to continue as the campaign season heats up.
Kevin Ryan, chief executive of online luxury retailer Gilt Groupe, contributed $1,000 to City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, a Democrat expected to vie for mayor, and gave the same amount to state Sen. Daniel Squadron and Reshma Saujani, two Democrats preparing to run for public advocate. Andrew Rasiej, chairman of New
York Tech Meetup, gave $100 to mayoral hopeful Bill de Blasio. Fred Wilson, of Manhattan-based Union Square Ventures, has contributed the maximum of $4,950 to Mr. Squadron and Ms. Saujani.
Meanwhile, the city Campaign Finance Board is looking to get the technology industry directly involved in the election process itself. Officials have reached out to Google and other companies to ask if they would consider sponsoring a mayoral debate. A board spokesman said it wants to broadcast debates online and engage voters via social media. A Google spokesman said the debate proposal hadn't yet been discussed with city officials.
The industry has been concerned about finding a mayoral candidate as friendly to the tech sector as Mr. Bloomberg. During his tenure, the city has rolled out Wi-Fi in public parks, expanded broadband access for businesses and will open much more municipal data utilized by software developers by 2018.
The mayor's major tech legacy will be the establishment of an applied-sciences campus on Roosevelt Island. The city will contribute $100 million and 11 acres of public land toward the technology-oriented school, a joint venture between Cornell University and Technion-Israel Institute of Technology slated to open in 2017.
So far, by the measure of Mr. Bloomberg, the mayoral contenders haven't yet cracked the tech sector's political code.
"They're all quite interested in talking to the tech industry," said Mr. Wilson, whose venture-capital firm was an early backer of social-media companies like Twitter Inc. "If you really want to win the hearts and minds of the tech community, you'd have to learn our language."
The candidates, he added, aren't going to appeal to tech workers' wallets. "You're going to appeal to their worldview," he said.
The tech constituency encompasses a range of potential voters who remain unlikely to behave as a traditional bloc. "It's venture capitalists and 23-year-old graphic designers in Bushwick," Mr. Dash said. "It's labor and management. It's not traditional allies."
Proposals the tech industry is considering range from the appointment of a deputy mayor for information technology to tax incentives that are aimed at making the city more attractive to companies. But being heard in a city dominated by entrenched interests and established industries will be a challenge.
"It's not as if they're going to be the only well-heeled set of actors in the election arena," said Bruce Berg, a political-science professor at Fordham University. "It really depends upon how this tech group enters the conversation and how seriously they're taken amidst all the other noise of a mayoral campaign."
Mr. Rasiej, chairman of Tech Meetup, said the 2011 fight against antipiracy legislation was a "watershed moment" that brought more than 2,000 protesters, largely from the tech sector, to the city offices of U.S. Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand. Congressional backers eventually abandoned the bills. "I expect that the city will recognize that technology is not a slice of the pie—it's the pan," Mr. Rasiej said.

An expensive shoebox, or an expensive shoebox sized volume? If you're firing rods of plutonium at stupid velocities into the thing in order to get them together before they go critical, I'm pretty sure by the time they're all in place you won't have anything which can reasonably be described as a shoebox anymore.

What is Yogic Cooking?
Ingredient Information
DO'S & DON'TS: First off, I'll give you a list of "helper" foods and a list of "avoid" foods. What you want to do is gradually increase the amounts of the helper foods and decrease the others. This is the easiest way to get started.
HELPERS: beets, radishes of all kinds, carrots, lemon juice, watermelon with black pepper, onions, melons (always eat melons alone), olives, raw vegetables, papaya, bananas, grapefruit, yogurt, Yogi Tea, black salt, black pepper, turmeric, and cardamom.
AVOID: all fried foods, cooked oil, caffeine and other stimulants, fried grains, all processed foods, cheese, meat, eggs, animal fat, alcohol, any food that is heavy or difficult to digest (taking more than 20 hours to pass).
LIVER TONICS: Another easy addition to your program is to start your day, the very first thing in the morning, with 8 ounces of cold, plain Yogi Tea. Take the Yogi Tea before you drink or eat anything else, sipping it slowly and mixing it with saliva well before swallowing. This is a well-known yogic liver tonic. In the alternative, you could sip unsweetened lemon juice and water (the juice of one lemon with 12 ounces of water). I would recommend sipping the lemon water through a straw to best maintain tooth enamel.
ONE-DAY AND ONE-WEEK MONO-DIETS/FASTS*: Once you are getting accustomed to the "helper" foods and life with less of the "avoid" foods, try a one-day fast or mono-diet of beets only. This is a good way to give your digestive system a "rest" and your liver a little tune up. Choose one day a week (Monday works for me) and have that be your cleanse day. You can try the beets different ways (see simple serving suggestions below), cooked or raw. Also, on your fast day, you can have as much plain Yogi Tea as you like, lemon juice (great squeezed over the beets) and, of course, lots of water. A little more aggressive approach would be doing the same fast for one full week, every 1-3 months.
CLEANSING DIETS*: Over the years I have tried numerous cleansing diets. I did well with the long-term strict mono-type diets when I was younger (40-day beet fast, banana fast, melon fast… more about these fasts another time). I'm better now with a little more variety and find that sticking to a regimen of pretty much only the foods on the "helper" list (and eliminating entirely the "avoid foods") is very effective. Start with one week. Then next time, try it for two weeks, and then shoot for completing 40 days. Remember to drink lots of water.

Pioneers take Gospel and basketball to Poland, Lithuania
The Wayland Baptist University Pioneers basketball team took some time out this summer to spread the gospel and the good news of basketball to people in Lithuania and Poland.
Five members of the Pioneers team, Danny Storey, Michal Polanowski, Zach TeGrotenhuis, Lee Berend and Jason Griffin, along with head coach Robert Davenport and assistant coach Quinn Wooldridge, spent the first half of the summer working odd jobs around the community in order to raise money for the trip. With the money raised and the generous donations of people in the community, the Pioneers were able to travel to Europe where they held a week-long basketball camp in Vilnius, Lithuania, the last week of July.
The Pioneers were working with Athletes in Action. The group usually runs two camps in Vilnius each summer. What made the Wayland camp different, however, was that team members accompanied the coaches and worked the camps. Generally, it is usually only coaches who attend the camps.
"We kind of personalized the camp for the kids because our players were there," Davenport said.
It took the group a little time to adjust to Lithuania's long summer days. The sun comes up at about 4:30 a.m. and sets around 10:30 p.m. The group reached Vilnius around 11 p.m. on a Sunday night and started the camp at 10 a.m. Monday morning. Davenport said the time difference and jet lag took its toll on the group, but they managed to adjust.
The Pioneers spent several days with the campers teaching them the fundamentals of basketball and sharing their testimonies. Most of the kids spoke fluent English and the ones who didn't knew enough English to communicate.
"It was really neat to watch the relationships between those kids and our kids," Davenport said. "It's just like our camps here, the kids get attached to them. There were about 35 kids in the camp and probably half of them asked us to come back next year."
After leaving Lithuania, the Pioneers headed to Konin, Poland, hometown of 6-10 junior Michal Polanowski. Davenport said the reception Polanowski received was amazing.
"Little did we know that Mike is a legend in his hometown," Davenport said. "It is a city of about 100,000 people. Mike is the real deal there. We all thought that was pretty neat, and we gave Mike a hard time about it."
While the Pioneers enjoyed site seeing and the mountains of food prepared by Polanowski's parents, Mike was busy conducting newspaper and television interviews with the local media. At one point, Polanowski gave his testimony in Polish for a video that will by used by Athletes in Action throughout Poland.
"It was kind of neat to see things like that," Davenport said. "We see Mike every day, and Mike is a great guy and does good things, but back in his home country, it's amazing how big he is and how much of an influence he can really have."
Davenport said the Pioneers were originally supposed to do more with the Athletes in Action group in Poland, but due to scheduling they weren't able. However, he said the trip was very successful and he hopes they were able to plant seeds of faith with some of the kids they came in contact with.
"We were able to share the gospel with some kids who may or may not have been able to hear it before," he said. "The Athletes in Action staff in Lithuania works daily with those kids and will have to follow up with them."

@booboo, I just made them and got 5 pints. I also seemed to be short on liquid, unless it doesn't matter if they aren't totally covered?
I have no idea But thanks for the info! I now have one cuke that has gone bad in my fridge, another fresh one, and 3 curled/deformed ones ..... not sure I'll get enough any time soon.
They aren't made from regular cucumbers - you need pickling cucumbers, which are much smaller and bumpy.
Yes, I know that much. (Phew!) That's what I put in my garden. I'm just not getting enough at any one time
Oh, I see. My garden doesn't have room for them so I just bought a bunch at the farmers market. Maybe you can buy some extras so that you have enough for a batch?

Sora electric motorbike from Lito Green Motion is the latest and glorious 'machine'. The commendable innovation is the brainchild of a creative unit of bike-loving engineers. It took them two years to come up with this finished remarkable project. These engineers got their brilliant vision from street fighter, café racers and the known bobber which they combined.
This stylish piece of technology and invention comes with a 12kWh lithium polymer battery which delivers the substance for its liquid cooled, three phase AC induction motor. The Sora is capable of going up to 185 miles (300 km) when charged. It also includes a 59 lb ft of torque at the crank which helps raise the acceleration of the bike up to 60 miles per hour in approximately four seconds. CVT (continuously variable transmission) helps bringing it up to 120 miles per hour. You're in safe hands since it has high-end suspension and brake components that lead to quick halt.
This magnificent bike also consists of 'safe range' as it has the integrated GPS to help you reach your desired location. It helps in extracting the energy out after selecting your location on a set in touch screen. It has a very low maintenance cost also. This bike also comes with an electric seat. The saddle height can be changed by just simply touching a button that accustoms to the riders built and form. The price of this amazing automobile is around $44,080. Along with all this, it is eco friendly and has an outstanding performance ratio.

Chinese exchange students fill empty nests
DANBURY, Conn. (AP) -- A radio ad changed the course of Ginny Schmidt-Gedney's life.
Gedney was driving through Danbury earlier this summer, debating whether to sell her four-bedroom home on Birch Street, when she heard a plea to host an exchange student from China.
A longtime widow with children grown and gone away, Gedney thought, "Why not?"
"I have the space and the house is empty," said Gedney, 67.
Fast-forward a couple months: Gedney's home is bustling with activity as teenage girls figure out bathroom schedules, practice their English and experiment with American food.
Gedney took into her home not one exchange student, but two: Chinese students from Guangzhou, a city once known as Canton. Victoria, 13, and Lilly, 16, (their American names) will live with her for 10 months while they attend Immaculate High School.
"I'm having a ball," Gedney said. "It's been great and busy. There have been uniforms and physicals the girls had to get and lots of picnics to attend. We're exhausted."
Gedney's adventure is being played out across Fairfield County and throughout the country as retirees, empty-nesters and those seeking a cultural experience for their families meet the demand for a record number of Chinese students enrolling in U.S. high schools.
A recent study conducted by the Institute of International Education, a nonprofit that tracks international university and high school students in the U.S, found that during the last decade the number of international students enrolled in American high schools more than tripled, to 73,000. One of every three international students studying in U.S. high schools last year was from China, according to the study.
It was David Guerrera's ad looking for host families that Gedney answered earlier this summer. Guerrera, a Watertown resident, co-founded Apex International Education Partners, which matches host families with Chinese students studying at Connecticut high schools.
Guerrera started AIEP three years ago with 10 exchange students. This year he's placed 125 students from China in private and Catholic high schools in the state, including Fairfield Prep and the Stanwich School in Greenwich, which have recruited Chinese students for the first time.
Guerrera credits the increase in exchange students to China's booming economy and the Chinese desire to provide the best education possible.
"China has seen in the last decade a tremendous increase in wealth," Guerrera said. "And education in China is top priority. The Chinese think that, hands down, an American education has much more advantages than an education in China."
Host families receive a $1,000 monthly stipend for each student, but for many families the money is a secondary consideration.
Kathleen Whitmore of Bethel decided to host Coco because her adopted daughter, Faith, a junior at Immaculate, is also Chinese.
"For years we've wanted Faith to learn about her culture," Whitmore said. "It's something we've been trying to do for years."
In Sandy Hook, Ross, a 16-year-old from Shanghai, has moved in with Crystal Mok and her family while he attends Immaculate.
Mok looked into hosting an exchange student to fill the void left by when her Asian mother-in-law passed away and her father-law moved out of state.
"We missed cooking for people," said Mok, whose teenage son, Chris, also attends Immaculate. "We were at that point where we said, 'We have a big house, so here's an option.' "
When Immaculate opened recently, it welcomed 40 exchange students, the most it has ever accepted, said Lynn Loya, who runs the school's international student program. Thirty-four of them are from China.
Loya said host families who take in exchange students are an important part of the school's strategic plan to prepare students for a global marketplace.
"Our students will be competing and working in different countries," Loya said. "It's important for them to learn about different cultures."
Gedney has committed to 10 months with Lilly and Victoria, but she'll take them in again if they decide to continue their studies at Immaculate.
Chances are good they will. Research shows that most high school exchange students graduate and then go on to study in a U.S. college or university.
For more information on becoming a host family visit AIEP's website or call 203-768-8079.

Following a period of uncertainty due to the general elections in France, economic players were reassured by the outcome in favour of Emmanuel Macron and the measures promised by his government, some of which are already being implemented. French GDP grew by 0.5% in Q1 2017 and forecasts for the year stand at 1.6%.
Unemployment, now under the 10% threshold, finally seems to have reversed its rising trend, a factor influencing the consumer sentiment index, which has returned to its long-term average. The business climate is also looking more positive, driven in particular by the car sector. In parallel, the rise in spending power generated by low inflation led to a rise in actual spending in 2016.

Timeline for Emily Tarrant Moore
Here is my timeline for the life of Emily Tarrant Moore (Task B, Challenge 4 in the GeneaBloggers Games). It was created on TimeToast. As you can see, there are not very many dates on it - something to work on in the future. When I only knew a year, I entered January 1 as the month and day.
(Do I get extra points because initially Blogger would not accept the post - "Tag is not closed: Embed" - so I googled the problem and found that the code generated on TimeToast needed to have some code (I can't put it here because then it still won't publish my post!) added at the end?)

World Rice Prices, 1998-Present
The graph below shows the cases in which the value of the realized returns (log returns of future prices contracts expiring between 1 and 3 months) are higher than the forecast the 95% conditional quantile for the log return on the following day based on a model that includes daily returns since 2001. When the blue line (realized return) is over the red line (forecasted 95th percentile returns) it means that the realize return is an abnormality and we expect it to fall under the 95th percentile return in the following day.
Rough Rice Returns
The daily global news continues to be inundated with stories of rising food prices, and accompanying rises in poverty and hunger. Recent droughts in China have been added to the list of factors driving food prices, specifically commodity prices, up around the world. Policymakers are now faced with decisions regarding the appropriate response to these increases.
While rises in the price of staple commodities such as wheat and maize do pose major food security challenges, one of the major factors threatening global food security remains extreme price fluctuations and the observed political and market overreaction that normally follows. In 2007-08, volatile prices led many major food producers to impose knee-jerk reactions such as export restrictions. As was seen during this previous crisis, a halt, or even a restriction, in exports from large exporting countries will put more pressure on commodity prices, dramatically affecting consumers worldwide. Such an impact is magnified for poor consumers, who spend a large portion of their incomes on food.
The graph above uses the estimator described in Martins-Filho, Torero and Yao (2010) to estimate conditional quantiles for log returns of future prices (contracts expiring between one and three months) of hard wheat, soft wheat, corn and soybeans. This model draws on extensive research into returns on agricultural commodity prices to explain when such price fluctuations and jumps are abnormally high given past observations on prices. This deeper understanding may help prevent knee-jerk policy reactions by discouraging market overreaction and encouraging market stability.

SendGrid is named to The Denver Post's Top Workplaces 2013SendGrid Team
We are very excited to announce that SendGrid has been selected as one of The Denver Post's Top Workplaces for 2013. The Denver Post published the complete list of Top Workplaces on April 21st.
Last week, we had the pleasure of attending the Annual Awards Gala at the Kevin Taylor Restaurant at Hotel Teatro in Denver. We were honored to be able to spend the evening with our fellow awardees and to learn more about what makes their companies so unique. From the minute we arrived at the restaurant, the support and energy in the room was palpable. And that energy only grew as the names of each company were announced. It was wonderful to see all of the awardees come together to support positive workplace environments in Denver. We couldn't be prouder to be one of them.
How Are The Top Workplaces Chosen?
The Top Workplaces are determined solely on employee feedback. The employee survey is conducted by WorkplaceDynamics, LLP, a leading research firm on organizational health and employee engagement. WorkplaceDynamics conducts regional Top Workplaces programs with 37 major publishing partners and recognizes a list of 150 National Top Workplaces.
What Our Employees Have to Say
Here are just a few reasons why SendGridders love coming to work:
"I get to work with a great team, which includes everyone in all areas of the company. I get to be creative, and make things that help people like me; engineers."
"The people are amazing. I have fun with what I do."
"[I enjoy] working with smart, nice people."
To cap off a great week (celebrating sending 100 billion emails and being named a Top Workplace) the Denver and Boulder offices went to the Rockies vs. Mets baseball game last Thursday. Despite freezing temperatures, it was great to spend time together to recognize what makes SendGrid a Top Workplace…our employees.
For a full list of awardees visit DenverPost.com and to learn more about what makes SendGrid tick, read this latest blog post from SendGrid's Co-founder and President, Isaac Saldana.

Recently I had the chance to visit an out of the way vineyard I had previously never heard of. It's on the west slope of the
The shoots aren't carefully positioned or tied up on the trellis wire. Some hedging would be in order. Second crop needs to be removed. This time of year, leaves should be pulled off the morning side of the grape clusters for light exposure and better air movement. Maybe on both sides, to maximize ripeness in this challenging spot. Clusters still weren't fully colored, and harvest was weeks away. The weather's turned warm again, but this vineyard probably still has a long way to go.
I'm technically still looking for grapes for this harvest, though I think I have a line on the vineyard I purchased from in 2006. It's my first choice, though it's not cheap. I'm a homebrewer who's going after vineyards otherwise in commercial production. I don't have priority. I went up to this vineyard thinking maybe I'd have it as a back up, and it still may be if I need it.
The real discovery though was the thought that next year, when I'm planning to make a small amount of wine commercially, I might rent a few rows at this promising, out of the way site and take care of them myself. The owner has a crew that sprays and does other work. Clearly more is needed to see what this site could produce. The raw materials are there. I'd love the opportunity to get out in the vineyard and get my hands dirty. I drove away excited about next year, about working with vines after so many years focused on the wine cellar.

Following Apple's $1.05 billion win against Samsung in its ongoing patent war, Apple has now submitted a list of Samsung devices that it believes should be withdrawn from sale to the court.
The list contains eight Samsung smartphones: The Galaxy S2 AT&T, Galaxy S2 T-Mobile, Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, Galaxy S2 Epic 4G, Galaxy S 4G, Galaxy S Showcase, Galaxy Prevail and the Droid Charge.
A total of 28 Samsung phones were found to have used Apple patents without permission and to have copied key designs; but many of them are considerably older devices than those listed above, and therefore rarely found on sale anymore.
This is just the first stage in Apple's efforts to see the offending phones removed from sale in the USA, and it will have to wait until September 20 for the official hearing, but even then it won't be smooth sailing.
According to The Guardian, Apple's legal team must prepare for a four-part test to show the court that irreparable injury has been caused by the devices being on sale. It must prove that the $1.05 billion already awarded isn't compensation enough, and that further action is needed. Even if the team gets that far, it has to show that such a ban doesn't harm the public interest.
Judge Lucy Koh has already shown she's not afraid to ban products from sale, having passed an injunction against the Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet and the Galaxy Nexus smartphone in the recent past.
Analysts at Jefferies and Co. told the newspaper that it expects "a two-thirds chance of an injunction against Samsung products."
In the days following the court's verdict, Samsung's stock took a fall, resulting in its largest single-day loss in four years. An injunction against some of its products, no matter how old they may be, can only make things worse. Especially when Apple will shortly be riding the wave of excitement generated by the unveiling of its next-generation iPhone.

SAN JOSE — Fire officials are investigating what caused a small blaze to break out overnight at a private school in San Jose, according to a San Jose Fire Department captain.
San Jose firefighters responded to St. Thomas More School, located at 1565 South White Road, after receiving reports from an alarm company that sprinklers had been activated, according to San Jose fire Capt. Mary Gutierrez.
San Jose firefighters initially said the small blaze may have been suspicious. Fire investigators initially thought a candle may have started the blaze, but are now looking at other causes, Gutierrez said.
Firefighters responded to the school to investigate and located water flow and smoke inside an office area, Gutierrez said. There had been a small fire contained to a school office, Gutierrez said.
A fire cause investigator was sent to the school, Gutierrez said.
Firefighters called for a full first alarm at 1:10 a.m. and had everything under control by 1:36 a.m., Gutierrez said.

We're still waiting on a simple and effective solution for wireless HD in the home, but when it comes to streaming from the PC, there are at least a few options available. The latest from Asus is not only inexpensive, but it's about as easy as it gets.
You'll get one unit to send the signal, and one to receive it. The one that sends it requires a pair of USB cables from your computer for power and an HDMI cord for the video signal. It sends video and audio to the receiver, which sends it out via HDMI.
Asus assures that you'll be getting 1080p video thanks to a 3Gbps transfer rate. Audio is a bit of a mystery though – there's no word on what kind of audio is supported by the technology.
It's not a whole house solution by any means. You'll get 33 feet worth of range out of the WiCast, though that range isn't limited by line of sight. You can pick up a WiCast for yourself this September at a price of $199.

Personally, I think it's a bit of a mistake for England to ask for the Tour Game vs NSW to be even further informalised. It takes away a lot of match pressure and would make it harder to be mentally switched on for a game, and turns it into glorified net sessions / centre wicket practice.
Will Macgill be playing, or will he have abused any more umpires in the meantime?

Lego Fest Mania – Austin – September 2012
Sep 2 2012
Lego KidsFest was impressive! We were there pretty much the entire time we could be this morning. It was at the Austin Convention Center and it was packed full of fun. Mostly boys signed up for the workshop with the Lego master. He talked to them about interweaving Lego's and told him he was the youngest master Lego builder in the company. He was 29 and had helped build, among many other things, the Lightening McQueen sculpture. He said it took 1,800 hours to build and weighed about 1 ton. They had many figures placed around the showroom floor like the Hulk, Batman, Hagrid, Wonder Woman, Superman, Toy Story characters, Ninjago characters, as well as many animals. Who knew you could make a living building figures out of Lego's?
The kids could build sections for the mini-nation they were assembling in one section of the showroom floor. The photo in this post is of a tower my son built representing the UT tower, and he asked to have it placed it in Texas. My daughter built another tower and asked to have it placed it in Colorado. Together the kids built a super tall tower and placed it in California I think. They said there will be an aerial view of the entire area on their website after the Fest was over.
Lego started a line called Lego friends aimed at girls that had stereotypical pink colors and designs to build houses, patios, landscape gardens, etc. My daughter and her two friends spent much of their time in that area. Apparently, Lego's sales to the girl market went from 10 to 27% after they designed that product line. Go figure. Girls like to build, but we still seem to like to build using small purple and pink pieces. Maybe in 10 to 15 years because Lego created products that girls (or parents of girls) like playing with, we will see more women pursuing career paths in design and construction. Who knows…Author: Aruni | Filed under: FYI, Just For Fun, parenting | Tags: austin convention center, lego fest, lego friends, ninjago, super hero | Comments Off on Lego Fest Mania – Austin – September 2012

Konami accused of bank loan fraud over Def Jam Rapstar
A bank is accusing Konami and Autumn Games of fraud, after requesting a loan to help finance Def Jam Rapstar. The bank says the companies used faulty numbers and false promises of repayment timing to secure the loan.
We know that Def Jam Rapstar developer 4mm Games is in financial and legal troubles. But the game's publishers, Konami and Autumn Games, are now facing their own court battle, as a bank has accused the companies of fraud over a loan to finance the game.
City National Bank in Los Angeles has filed a claim that it was defrauded of $14 million by Konami and Autumn. The bank accuses the companies of lying about their financial conditions to secure the credit for the game, without ever intending to pay it back as promised. The bank also points out that it hasn't been paid back at all for the loan yet.
The bank alleges that the companies made "baseless and unrealistic projections" that Def Jam Rapstar would ship 2.5 million units in its first year, and that Autumn Games promised to use a $1 million advance to pay down the loan, reports Courthouse News. That payment never materialized and CNB accuses Autumn of spending it on other things. The bank is seeking $8.9 million in damages.
"CNB has recently learned that defendants' representations concerning financial conditions and repayment of the loan - both before and after the loan was approved - were false at the time they were made and that defendants never had any intention of repaying the loan as promised," reads the complaint. "Rather than paying game-related proceeds directly to CNB as agreed, defendant have kept all game-related proceeds for themselves and have refused to remit any such proceeds to CNB.
"By the time CNB learned the true state of affairs, Autumn had drawn down $13,987,003.15 of the $15 million line of credit. To date, defendants still have not paid CNB a single penny of the principal amount that is due, and they continue to insist that none of the proceeds from sales of the game are owed to CNB and/or available for repayment."
Steve Watts posted a new article, Konami accused of bank loan fraud over Def Jam Rapstar.

The Justia Lawyer Directory is a listing of lawyers, legal aid organizations, and pro bono legal service organizations. Whether you were injured, are accused of a crime, or are merely engaging in everyday affairs that affect your legal rights or property, an attorney can help you resolve problems or prevent new ones from arising.
Here are just a few situations where you might want to seek the advice of an attorney:
- You were injured in a car or truck accident
- You have been arrested and charged with a crime, such as DUI or shoplifting
- You are considering separating from your spouse
- You have been subjected to harassment or other discrimination at work
Use Justia to research and compare Springfield attorneys so that you can make an informed decision when you hire your counsel.
It is important to research an attorney before hiring him or her. Be sure to evaluate an attorney's experience (types of cases handled, prior results obtained, etc.). Although prior results are not indicative of the likelihood of success in your case, they can help you make an informed decision.
Also worth serious consideration is the attorney's location, particularly if you will be traveling to visit him or her for consultations.
Finally, research an attorney to see whether he or she has ever been subject to discipline. Although disciplinary actions do not necessarily impact the attorney's competence to handle your case, they may affect your decision whether to hire.

Zynga acquires Floodgate Entertainment
Zynga has bought Boston developer Floodgate Entertainment. The team will join Zynga Boston and founder Paul Neurath will become the studio's Creative Director.
In its ongoing quest to rule the world, Zynga has bought Boston-based developer Floodgate Entertainment. The team will join the Zynga Boston office, and Floodgate founder Paul Neurath will become the Creative Director at Zynga Boston. Neurath is an industry veteran, having founded Blue Sky Productions, which went on to become Looking Glass and develop much-loved games including Thief and System Shock.
Floodgate has made a number of casual PC and mobile titles like Flowerz and Daycare Nightmare, but the company also has some core cred under its belt by developing the mobile versions of some mainstay franchises, including Neverwinter Nights Mobile, Age of Empires mobile, and Civ IV: War of Two Cities. The company also co-developed Dark Messiah of Might and Magic with Arkane Studios.
The details of the purchase weren't detailed in the announcement, but Zynga isn't exactly strapped for cash. Thanks to the success of its casual games and some noteworthy investments, the company has quite a bit of money to put towards acquiring studios.
As a result, Zynga has been snatching up casual developers like delicious jelly beans. Floodgate is the company's tenth acquisition in as many months, having bought Flock, Area/Code, NewToy, Conduit Labs, Challenge Games, Bonfire Studios, and more.

This authorized biography of Desmond Tutu will make a valuable addition to any history educator's library. It is an engaging read which provides a number of sources on events in South Africa suitable for use in Gr11 and Gr 12 lessons and examination papers. While the writer does give a detailed account of the role played by Tutu in the Anglican Church and the SACC, he also deals with the historical context in which these events took place. As I read the book, I found myself jotting down page numbers of useful sources on topics as varied as forced removals from Sophiatown and African nationalism. The chapter of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission has a wealth of primary material.
John Allen has included many poignant stories of the Tutu family which learners will enjoy. For example, when Desmond and Leah Tutu were in Trafalgar Square, London, they were "intoxicated" that "a police officer did not come across and ask for your pass." At the age of four, Mpho Tutu described herself as a "non-white European."
As a journalist and Tutu's press secretary for 13 years, John Allen has ably explored contemporary South African history and given a warm and thought-provoking picture of one of the truly great men of our time.

HOUSTON — Slater Martin, the Hall of Fame guard who won four NBA titles with the Minneapolis Lakers and one with the St. Louis Hawks, died Thursday, Oct. 18. He was 86.
Martin died at a skilled nursing facility in Houston after a sudden illness, daughter-in-law Becky Martin said. She said he was admitted to the nursing home Monday.
Martin was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1982. He went into the University of Texas' Longhorn Hall of Honor in 1962, entered the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 1964, and the school retired his No. 15 in 2009.
The 5-foot-10 Martin averaged 9.8 points and 4.2 assists in 745 NBA regular-season games with Minneapolis, New York and St. Louis from 1949-50 to 1959-60. He averaged 10.0 points and 3.2 assists in 92 playoff games, winning titles with Minneapolis in 1950, '52, '53 and '54 and St. Louis in 1958.
Martin played in seven All-Star games and was a five-time, second-team All-NBA selection.
Martin enrolled at Texas in the fall of 1943 and played four varsity games as a freshman. He went into military service in January 1944, and rejoined the Longhorns for the 1946-47 Final Four run that ended with a third-place finish. In his next-to-last game at Texas, he set a school record with 49 points in an 81-60 victory over TCU on Feb. 26, 1949.
He is survived by sons Jim and Slater Jr.

More tests find undisclosed compound in two supplements
New tests on the popular sports supplements Craze and Detonate have again found an amphetamine-like compound that's not disclosed on their labels, according to a scientific journal article.
New test results on two popular sports supplements have again found an amphetamine-like compound that's not disclosed on their labels and puts athletes at risk of being banned from competition, according to an article published Monday in the Journal of Analytical Toxicology.
The peer-reviewed article describes finding the compound in samples of the pre-workout powder Craze, sold by Driven Sports, and the fat-burning pills Detonate, sold by Gaspari Nutrition. The tests are the latest to raise questions about what's really in the two products.
The tests found that samples from four of five lots of Craze contained the compound N-ethyl-alpha-ethyl-phenethylamine, or "ETH" for short. Both Detonate samples tested positive for ETH, the study said.
The study's lead author, Mahmoud ElSohly, president of ElSohly Laboratories in Oxford, Miss., and a research professor at the University of Mississippi's National Center for Natural Products Research, was not immediately available for comment.
Marc Ullman, an attorney for Driven Sports, said the company hasn't had time to review the new journal article in depth, but a cursory review indicates it is flawed and missing key information.
"The wide variances in test results reported would seem to suggest that whatever ElSohly was seeing, it was naturally occurring," Ullman said in an e-mail. The labels on Craze and Detonate say their key active ingredient comes from dendrobium orchids.
Labs hired by Driven Sports have not found the amphetamine-like compounds in Craze, the company's officials have said. Ullman said Monday the company is in the process of having test results from its lab prepared for submission to a peer-reviewed publication, but he didn't have an estimated time frame.
Officials at Gaspari Nutrition did not immediately respond to interview requests.
Driven Sports is run by Matt Cahill, a convicted felon who has a history of putting risky products on the market, USA TODAY reported earlier this year. The company also has dismissed previous findings of amphetamine-like compounds in Craze as wrong or the result of a smear campaign by competitors.
The study published Monday discloses it was funded in part by Thermolife International, another supplement company.
Other groups of scientists that have found troubling compounds in Craze — including the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency in June 2012 and a government-affiliated forensic lab in Sweden in April — had no affiliation with industry competitors.
In August a team of researchers from the National Forensic Service in South Korea and the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment in the Netherlands published an article in a journal of the Japanese Association of Toxicology saying they had found a methamphetamine-like compound in samples of Candy Grape flavor and Berry Lemonade flavor Craze.
In October a team that included a researcher from the Netherlands along with U.S. scientists from Harvard and NSF International in Ann Arbor, Mich., reported in the scientific journal Drug Testing and Analysis that they also had found a chemical similar to methamphetamine — N,alpha-diethylphenylethylamine — in samples of Craze. NSF International, an organization that does testing of supplements, reported in October that separate tests of Detonate also found the same compound. Pieter Cohen, an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School and co-author of the October article, said the compound his team found in the fall is the same molecule ElSohly's team reported on in Monday's journal article, even though they used a different name to describe it.
"The important new study further confirms that Craze is not what it appears to be," Cohen said. "Far from a natural supplement, the new research confirms what we found in October: Craze contains a new stimulant never tested in humans."
Cohen said the new peer-reviewed results on Gaspari's Detonate product raise larger concerns about the integrity of products sold to consumers as supplements.
"Taken together, this research strongly suggests that we are not dealing with one rogue player, but rather an industry-wide problem in which new synthetic stimulants are introduced as supposedly natural products without consideration of the safety of consumers," Cohen said.
Despite the repeated test findings, regulators at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration have taken no public action involving Craze, Detonate or the products' makers. The agency has declined to comment on the companies and products.
In the wake of USA TODAY's investigative reports about Craze and Cahill, Wal-Mart and other large online retailers stopped selling the product, and Driven Sports and Gaspari Nutrition ceased production of Craze and Detonate.

Thanks again for the explanation..

Enactus team named 2nd runner up at nationals
Thursday, May 23, 2013 2:00 AM
Pittsburg, KS
The Pittsburg State University Enactus team was named second runner up in its division Wednesday evening during the 2013 Nationals Competition in Kansas City.

The team also earned two
other accolades during the expo.
During the opening ceremonies, the PSU team was recognized as the second-place winner in the Walmart Women's Economic Empowerment Project Partnership contest and as the third-place winner in the Sam's Club "Step Up For Small Business" competition.
The PSU team received the Women's Economic Empowerment award for its community employment initiative. The second-place award included a $4,000 prize.
The team earned third-place in the "Step Up" competition for its work with the Grace House Event Center in Galena. That award carried a $3,000 prize.
All told, they left Kansas City with $7,750 in
grant money.

Merge branch 'master' of ssh://roboclub.org/home/svn/scoutos
Conflicts: scout/libscout/src/BehaviorProcess.cpp
Overwrote the ROS sigint handler so now behaviours stop and die and stop motors upon exiting.
running libscout behaviors without specifying a name shouldmake everything publish directly (e.g., to /set_motor instead of/scout1/set_motor) and thus should work on hardware.
Freeing memory we allocate. Yay!
Changed it so that all behaviors are not instantiated immediately. Also changed pause so it does not spam (0, 0) motor speeds.
Added Sensors class that abstracts away sensors from behaviors. Stops creatingduplicated sensors for each scout.
Added launch files for the demo and made a little change to theargument checker to make them work.
Added linesensor to the behavior class.
Added maps and menus in scoutsim.
Menu options for about, quit, clear, and viewing different maps.
Behaviours now have names!
New behavior implementation that uses a list of behaviors to command multiple scouts with multiple behaviors.

Everything old is new again: Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong are once again the happy spokesmen for "magic brownies." This time, the magic comes not from marijuana but from extra fiber – a disappointing but perhaps more practical application for the audience that grew up with the duo's stoner humor.
The campaign for Fiber One's 90-calorie brownies is designed to be "fun and relatable" – and to convince boomers that fiber-enhanced baked goods may be just as transformative as drug-laced ones, says Kerry DeLaney, associate marketing manager for General Mills' Fiber One products.
So far, "Cheech and Chong's Magic Brownie Adventure" has gotten more than 73,000 views on YouTube in the two weeks since it's launch. It's funnier than you'd think — and that's not the brownies talking.

Virginia Media's Distorted Push For Dangerous Uranium Mining
Two Virginia media outlets are pushing gubernatorial candidates to lift a ban on uranium mining in Virginia while ignoring the state's particular vulnerability to environmental and health risks from mining.
In a March 21 editorial, The Richmond Times-Dispatch advocated for uranium mining, highlighting a study by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission which found that a radium and uranium refinery had no health or environmental effects on people in the surrounding area.
But the facility at the study's focus does not actually mine uranium at their site, it refines it. And in locations where they do mine, there are environmental differences between Canada and the United States. Cale Jaffe, a senior attorney with the Southern Environmental Law Center, said Canadian mines are located in areas with different climates and are more isolated from population centers. Indeed, a comprehensive report by the National Academy of Sciences found that storms and erosion from rainfall could pose a risk to uranium mines:
Virginia is subject to relatively frequent storms that produce intense rainfall. It is questionable whether currently-engineered tailings repositories could be expected to prevent erosion and surface and groundwater contamination for as long as 1,000 years. Natural events such as hurricanes, earthquakes, intense rainfall, or drought could lead to the release of contaminants if facilities are not designed and constructed to withstand such events, or if they fail to perform as designed.
A study by the city of Virginia Beach found that a "catastrophic failure" -- due to a natural event for example -- of a uranium containment structure could lead to radioactive substances contaminating drinking water for an extended period of time.
Canadian mines have also faced significant environmental problems in the past, according to a Southern Environmental Law Center report. On three occasions Canadian mines have flooded or contaminated waste water has leaked from these projects.
Virginia Watchdog, the Virginia affiliate of the Franklin Center For Government and Public Integrity -- a right-wing group which provides free statehouse reporting to local newspapers but receives large amounts of money from anonymous conservative donors -- similarly ignored the risks posed by Virginia's climate, instead quoting a Washington Times editorial in favor of uranium mining and the company who wants to mine the area.

HELP WANTED: CEO for financially distressed 146-year-old limited partnership drowning in long-term debt and enough past-due bills to choke a goat. Successful applicant will be responsible for managing the needs, wants, safety and endless complaints of 74,000 customers while juggling chronic deficits, anemic revenues, suffocating union contracts and crippling legacy costs using a business model that hasn't evolved since the advent of indoor plumbing. ANNUAL SALARY: $50,000. Seriously. That is not a typo.
Mayor Chris Doherty's recent announcement that he will not seek a fourth term as the CEO of Scranton was as anticlimactic as the average January sunset - bleak blue beams bleeding into blackness. Anyone with a calendar saw it coming.
Eleven years into Mr. Doherty's reign, the Electric City remains powered more by wishful thinking than objective reality. More than 20 years after it blundered into the roach motel that is the state's Act 47 Distressed Cities Recovery program, Scranton is still stuck. Mr. Doherty promised escape from distressed status by the end of his first term. He failed, but he had a lot of help.
This year - Mr. Doherty's last as mayor - will afford ample opportunities to critique his leadership, but what Scrantonians and those of us who depend on the city's survival should be thinking about is what comes After Doherty.
What will Scranton, A.D., look like?
An educated guess: Much like it does today. The next mayor will inherit a city that has all but bankrupted its future to pay the debts of its past. If you could borrow your way out of debt, everyone would do it.
The mayor's many detractors cheered his announcement, but who will they blame when they don't have Chris Doherty to kick around any more? His successor will likely be afforded a Mulligan in a first term, encouraged to blame the former mayor for digging a hole no one could climb out of in a mere four years.
OK, but four years is four years. Also four budgets and almost certainly four more huge tax increases, all chalked up to the sins of the past. The political heft of those sins will make even the tiniest of improvements seem like a sign things are turning around. A few more baby steps and suddenly, the prevailing political philosophy becomes: Better not change horses in midstream, especially with the shore finally in sight.
And that's how you end up where Chris Doherty and his city stand today - bragging about improved public parks and a murder-free 2012 even as the city crumbles under the weight of everything else that fell apart. Are these items worthy of pride? Yes, but highlighting them is like asking a burn victim to focus on the 15 percent of his body that escaped the flames.
I know you're in excruciating pain, but you still have a working eye and most of your hair! Yay!
The average annual salary for a city mayor in the U.S. is $85,000, according to Payscale.com and several other Internet sources of dubious credibility. The average in Pennsylvania - where there are more mayors than Wal-Marts - is about $65,000. Scranton's top post pays $50,000 a year. Seriously.
Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl was paid about $105,000 in 2012. Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter made a little over $167,000. These men serve 305,000 and 1.5 million constituents respectively, which, by real world standards, makes them ridiculously underpaid.
By Scranton standards, it makes them outrageously overpaid, and that's a key reason the city can't attract dynamic mayoral candidates. Anyone who would take on the Herculean task of shouldering the city's burdens for more than $11,000 less than a Scranton Fire Department private makes should seek psychiatric counseling.
The mayor of Erie earns $65,000 annually to govern a population of 101,000, but Erie City Council recently voted to increase the salary to $95,000 starting in 2014. The mayor of Allentown already makes $95,000 to manage a city of 119,000. The mayor of Reading pulls down almost $73,000 in a city of 88,000. Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton is paid $80,000 annually by a city of 43,000 residents. The 23,000 residents of Hazleton pay their CEO about $58,000 a year.
Almost all of the region's school superintendents are paid at least $100,000 annually. Bill King will be paid about $140,000 this year to preside over the Scranton School District and its 10,000 students. Scheduled annual raises in his contract will bring his salary to $156,000 in 2017.
The bottom line is that the city of Scranton's top job doesn't pay enough to attract top talent. Those who don't need the money don't need the hassle. If you need your salary to get by, you are more likely to be effective, whatever it takes. If the salary is nothing more than greens fees, the pressure to perform is naturally diminished.
Scrantonians who want a more effective, professional and responsive government must be willing to offer commensurate compensation. You get what you pay for.
I suggest an ad like:
HELP WANTED: CEO for financially distressed 146-year-old limited partnership drowning in long-term debt and enough past-due bills to choke a goat. Successful applicant will be responsible for managing the needs, wants, safety and endless complaints of 74,000 customers while juggling chronic deficits, anemic revenues, suffocating union contracts and crippling legacy costs using a business model that hasn't evolved since the advent of indoor plumbing. ANNUAL SALARY: $150,000, with incentives that make it possible to earn as much as $1 million.
If you perform, we will pay. Serious inquiries only. Pretenders need not apply.

Ayurveda, an ancient holistic science of healing, offers a logical and scientific approach for determining correct diet based upon an individual's constitution. Vata, pitta and kapha; the tri-dosha, are the elements which comprise individual constitution. This approach is quite different from the "traditional" view of a balanced diet; viz., eating daily from the basic food groups; meat, dairy, fruit, grains and vegetables. According to Ayurvedic literature, such a scheme is insufficient to lead us to the path of good health.
In the Ayurvedic literature there are five types of nutritional disorders:
1. Quantitative dietary deficiency. This includes under-nutrition due to insufficient food, and even starvation.
2. Qualitative dietary deficiency. This includes wrong food combination which results in malnutrition, toxic condition and lack of essential nutrients.
3. Qualitative and quantitative over-nutrition. This includes emotional overeating which can result in obesity and/or high cholesterol which can lead to hypertension, heart attacks or paralysis.
4. Toxins in food. Certain foods and food combinations lead to toxemia and to certain digestive disorders.
5. Foods not suitable to one's constitution may affect natural resistance and cause disease.
These five factors are closely connected to the strength of agni (the gastric fire). There are four types of agni:
1. VISHAMA AGNI. Due to vata dosha the gastric fire becomes vitiated, causing irregular appetite, indigestion and gases. Emotionally this can result in anxiety, insecurity, fear, and neurological or mental problems.
2. TIKSHNA AGNI. Pitta dosha is responsible for this type of agni disorder. It may cause hyper-metabolism, hyperacidity, heartburn and hypoglycemia leading to inflammatory diseases.
3. MANDA AGNI. This is due to an excess kapha condition, leading to slow metabolism, overweight, allergies and congestive diseases.
4. SAMA AGNI. This type of agni is the result of balanced tri-dosha. A person having this type of agni can eat almost any type of food without difficulty. Digestion, absorption and elimination are all normal.
The nutritionist should give consideration to these types of agni when making suggestions concerning diet.
According to Ayurveda, every food has its own taste (rasa), a heating or cooling energy (virya) and post-digestive effect (vipak). When two or three different food substances of different taste, energy and post-digestive effect are combined together agni can become overloaded inhibiting the enzyme system and resulting in production of toxins in the system. While it is true that an individual's agni largely determines how well or poorly food is digested, food combinations are also of great importance. When foods, (proteins, carbohydrates and fats) having different attributes, tastes, heating or cooling properties, and post-digestive effects are eaten together, agni will be slowed down. The foods can then remain in the stomach for seven to eight hours. These same foods, if eaten separately might well stimulate agni, be digested more quickly and even help to burn ama. Thus, according to Ayurveda, one should eat according to one's constitution and take fruits, starches, proteins and fats separately at different times of the day. Combining foods improperly can produce indigestion, fermentation, putrefaction and gas formation. This condition, if prolonged, can lead to toxemia and disease complex. For example, eating bananas with milk can diminish agni, change the intestinal flora producing toxins and may cause sinus congestion, cold, cough and allergies.
