"The people of New Mexico have made it clear that they disapprove of the policy of issuing driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, but their voices are sadly not being heard by some of their elected representatives. I am extremely disappointed that New Mexico's citizens have been shut out of the legislative process and believe the entire legislature should give this bill an up-or-down vote on the floor.
No more hiding behind unrecorded tabling motions in committee – the public has a right to know where their legislators stand on this critical issue. "New Mexico could soon be the last state in the country that still issues licenses to illegal immigrants. The potential for abuse of this policy is far too high and it will only increase in the future. Our state has become a magnet for criminals around the world who wish to move freely around the United State without detection. I continue to call on our elected officials to uphold government's most basic duty of keeping New Mexicans safe by ceasing the issuance of driver's licenses to those who may pose a security threat to our state and our country."
According to a poll taken by the Albuquerque Journal in September 2010, an overwhelming majority of New Mexicans oppose the policy of issuing driver's licenses to illegal immigrants: "New Mexico voters…strongly disapprove of the state's policy of giving driver's licenses to illegal immigrants. Seventy-two percent of voters polled opposed New Mexico's driver's license law…" (Sean Olson, "Voters Support Strong Policy on Immigrants," Albuquerque Journal, 9/5/10)

Evaluation of 2 endodontic techniques used to treat human primary molars with furcation radiolucency area: A 48-month radiographic study
Rose Mary Coser, DDS, MS, PhD/Juliana Oliveira Gondim, DDS, MS/ Elisa Maria Aparecida Giro, DDS, MS, PhD
Objective: To evaluate 2 techniques for the treatment of human primary molars with necrotic pulp and bifurcation bone loss by means of radiographic examination for 48 months. Method and Materials: Fifty-one mandibular primary molars were evaluated in children ranging from 4.5 to 6.5 years of age. The teeth with necrotic pulp and bifurcation bone loss were diagnosed by radiographic examination. The teeth were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (28 teeth)�pulpotomy technique using formocresol as a temporary dressing between sessions and coronal chamber obturation with zinc oxide�eugenol cement; and group 2 (23 teeth)�pulpectomy technique with calcium hydroxide paste as a temporary dressing between sessions and root canal obturation with a dense calcium hydroxide paste. Standardized radiographs were taken immediately after the fillings were completed and after 12, 24, 36, and 48 months. The radiographs were digitized and analyzed with software that outlined and measured the bifurcation radiolucency. Results: Bifurcation radiolucency reduced significantly or repaired completely for both treatments in the first 12 months. Minor radiographic reduction of the lesion was observed from 12 to 24 months, and no significant reduction of the remaining radiolucent area was observed from 24 to 48 months after treatment. Conclusion: The 2 endodontic techniques evaluated showed similar results. The main effect of treatment on the lesion repair was obtained in the first year after treatment. (Quintessence Int 2008;39:549�557)
Key words: calcium hydroxide, dental pulp necrosis, dental radiography, molar, primary tooth, root canal therapy

How important were Great Power rivalries as a cause of the First World War? The origins of the Great War have instigated debate amongst historians for almost a decade; unlike the subsequent Second World War, there is no clear-cut culprit for the unexpected descent into world war that shocked the world in July 1914. Whilst the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo on the 28th June 1914 was undoubtedly the direct cause of war, it was simply the catalyst for the heightened rivalry

World War I The United States originally had a policy of isolationism, avoiding conflict while trying to find peace. This resulted in increased tensions with Berlin and London. When a German U-boat sank the British liner Lusitania in 1915, with 128 Americans aboard, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson vowed, "America was too proud to fight" and demanded an end to attacks on passenger ships. Germany complied. Wilson unsuccessfully tried to mediate a settlement. He repeatedly warned the U.S. would not

World War 1 World War 1 began on June 28, 1914, a month after Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir to Austria- Hungary's throne, was assassinated by a Serbian nationalist.

Feel the rainbow
18 December, 2012 | Seahawks | No Comments|
I hope there are not any children reading this, otherwise you may get some ideas in your head that your parents may not approve of.
In a recent "Sports Science"episode they talked to Marshawn Lynch out his Skittles eating habits, and how they seem to help him go beast mode over opposing NFL defenses.
This season, Lynch has ran for a career best 1,379 yards, and this includes a staggering 241 yards on 21 carries the past two games! All while eating Skittles on the sidelines.
"Sports Science" measures Lynch's grip, speed, and reaction time before and after he eats Skittles. The results are amazing, and worth your 3 minutes. Click on the link for direct access to Seahawks.com to view.

21 Chump Street
Purple venue, find showtimes
From the opening lines to the fast-paced rap lyrics, you can tell this show was written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, but Troupe 1139 from Boone High School definitely bring it to life.
This 15-minute show follows the story of Justin, a straight-A senior in high school, who gets caught up in drugs to impress and woo an attractive new girl named Naomi, who is really an undercover cop. The show is based on an episode of "This American Life", an NPR radio show, which was a part of the show's Valentine's Day show titled "What I Did for Love."

New Trees Bring a Breath of Fresh Air to Bamyan Farmers
9 Janaury 2017, Jawzari – Jawzari is an area of great beauty and environmental significance in Bamyan province.
But it is threatened by floods and avalanches.
Since 2013, UNDP has helped local communities plant trees and set up nurseries, which protect against floods and provide new sources of income.
We have also taught villagers and schoolchildren how to restore damaged pastureland and graze animals in a way that does not destroy the environment.
UNDP and the Global Environment Facility's Small Grants Programme has awarded 46 grants in Afghanistan for projects on biodiversity, climate change mitigation, the prevention of land degradation and sustainable forest management. Of these, 22 completed projects have already improved the environment for nearly 55,000 households around the country.

UV Dangers For Runners a Hat Can Solve
All those who run, know that in order to improve and break your PR, a runner needs to train. Training can be done in a gym on a treadmill at home, or outside. Most runners will admit that running outside is part of the fun of being a long distance runner.
Those who train for marathon (26.2) will eventually will be running for several hours per week. Those who have set a half marathon (13.1 miles) will also be training for dozens of miles per week. There are far more runners who are training for the 10 Km or 5 Km races. In fact there are millions of participants in such races all around the country.
Running unlike other professional sports (baseball, football, golf) require very little gear. But even though there is not much to buy, high quality running gear is not cheap at all. Runners need to invest in a pair of good running shoes. Comfortable running clothes, which are usually Dri-Fit and sweat wick, and a running watch. Today running with an iPhone running app, or a professional GPS and heart monitor is very common too.
Personal Protection Gear For Runners
If you are running at dusk, dawn or night you would probably invest in a LED light or a reflective running vest (if you don't have one yet… Click here and get it ASAP), they are lifesavers!
But what about running during day time? What kind of protection does a runner needs when running at mid day? One of the treats which a runner might not want to ignore, is the risks from UV radiation. The main problem is UV radiation absorbs silently in our skin and unless we see tan lines or kin burned we tend to ignore it, or overlook it.
But the worst part is that most runners think that UV dangers is relevant only in the summer, and they run for hours during winter without any ultraviolet protection.
UV Invisible Dangers
During summer earth is getting UVB + UVA. The UV-B is easy to feel and now it's existing. UVB tans our skin, it it the radiation which cause skin burns if we stay in the sun too long or at mid day. UVA is there too, but it is mostly unfelt. These wavelength are longer and penetrate to deeper skin layers. UVA do not leave an outer trace, except colors fading under the sun.
At winter there is less UVB (due to the earth tilt) so we can be outside for hours and not get tanned or skin burnt. But there are the same quantities of UVA, the longer dangerous ultraviolet rays are present at winter and summer at the same level.
There are two ways to protect the skin from UVA. UPF clothes and UV 'broad spectrum' creams.
UPF Running Hats
Wearing UV protective clothes for runners, is important at winter just like summer. Even with zero tanning, or on a cloudy day, the UVA rays are absorbed in the skin. December = July. For this reason a runner should be running with a UPF running hat! Not just a visor.
See here Under Armour Men's UA Shadow Cap.
The hat protects the top of our head, which has delicate and sensitive skin. The scalp skin is usually less tan (because of hair or hats) this means it has less melanin to naturally absorb the sun light. A UPF hat which is made from dri fit materials can protect the head and wick sweat at the same time, most of them are very light weight.
A wide rim is also recommended as it shields the eyes and the sensitive facial skin. The forehead and nose skin are usually tanned easily and a wide rim can protect them at winter or summer from UV radiation. Like this Race Performance Running Cap.
These hats on the right have breathable fabrics and air ventilation so for long distance runners they help remove the sweat away.
The second way to protect the skin from UVA is applying 'broad spectrum' creams. They need to be applied generously and reapplied every two hours. Note that regular SPF creams no matter how high their grade is, DO NOT FILTER – UVA. You must look for those who have UVA+UVB protection clearly stated on them.
So make sure you have your UV protection gear when training or competing!
Go get them champ!

Melody offers Clinical Hypnosis for Performance Enhancement
Registered with the American Board of Hypnotherapy. Smoke Free – Weight Loss – Stress-Free
What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is an altered state of awareness where your concentration is focussed and you have a higher susceptibility to suggestions that are acceptable to you. The basic principles of hypnosis are relaxation, concentration, suggestion and repetition.
Hypnosis could be described as an induced trance or altered state of consciousness, where suggestions are readily accepted.
During Hypnosis, the conscious mind is relaxed to such a degree that it's desire and ability to judge and reason (known as "critical faculties") becomes very much lessened. The subconscious, on the other hand, becomes very much more dominant, accepting and responsive to suggestions – especially positive, repetitious suggestions that are presented to it.
The benefits of Hypnosis:
Personal Development,
Health & Fitness,
Mental & Physical,
Give Up Smoking,
Lose Weight,
Import Performance,
Motivation, Improve
Eliminate Test Anxiety,
Release Anxiety,
Improve Public Speaking,
Free Negative Emotions,
and much more!
Hypnotic regression is a journey back in time to recover memories and explore events from the past. It is profound transformative work. All your experiences from birth and even before birth are recorded in your body, mind and soul.
In a past life regression you move back in time using hypnotic regression techniques to bring new perspectives and healing in a way no other therapy can do.
Enquire now about a hypnosis program to help you.
Melody's "Self Hypnosis" course
Overview: Self Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness characterized by a feeling of peaceful relaxation and "letting go", and increased suggestibility. As experienced from the inside, you are conscious, but detached as though you are observing what is happening to you rather than being in charge of it.
Although we may not realize it, we all carry around within us the necessary resources for personal evolution and success. Self-hypnosis can be a very effective tool for utilizing those resources to make changes in our lives.
· Learning Self Hypnosis is an invaluable practical tool, utilized as a stress management tool than normal hypnosis, as you do not need to have a hypnotist present. Drawing on the same "relaxation" that drives meditation, self-hypnosis helps you to relax your body, lets stress hormones subside, and distracts your mind from unpleasant thoughts. The relaxation achieved with self-hypnosis can be intense.
· Facilitating the use of imagery and affirmations as part of self-hypnosis to manage stress and build self-confidence.
· Facilitating the understandings of the "conscious" and "unconscious" mind.
· Learning the art of focusing on what you want, to get what you focus on.
· Learning 'suggestibility' tests.
· Learning about Cause and Effect.
· Learning Preparation for trance.
· Stages of Hypnosis
· Learning a Self Hypnotic Induction
Throughout Melody's Self Hypnosis Course the students will benefit enormously,
By learning the art as well as being in trance for an entire day.

Pardew is eager for the Senegal international to stay and has offered the player a new deal but talks have already begun with Chelsea over a potential £7 million switch in January.
Initial talks have stalled because of the striker's wage demands and Pardew is hopeful Ba will maintain at Newcastle.
Pardew and his club can do little about the situation, but the manager is growing increasingly weary of it.
He said: "In some respects, I feel a little bit sorry for Demba as well because I think people who are representing him are not actually representing him.
"There are people out there who are saying this who are not actually involved or want to be involved, and that's the sort of world we are in.
"The contract is what it is, we are all aware of that, and for me as the manager I need it resolved as quickly as possible. That's the best situation for our fans and for the club."
Despite the ongoing speculation regarding his future, Ba has managed 13 goals in the Premier League this term.
"One thing I don't have to worry about is Demba's mental state. He is one of the strongest footballers I have ever come across.
"We have been brilliant for him. I hope he rewards us by staying for another couple of years."

Anchor, a major provider of retirement housing, care homes and support for older people throughout England, is seeking to continue the momentum behind recent efforts.
Anchor's head of communications and public affairs Mario Ambrosi said: 'We are in the advanced stages of a tender for PR services to help continue to raise awareness of Anchor as an organisation dedicated to happy living for older people.
'The tender has been in Anchor's planning for some time and will build on our ongoing Grey Pride campaign for a minister for older people to be appointed to attend the Cabinet.'
The organisation has previously worked with Citizen Brando and attracted 137,000 signatures on a petition as part of its Grey Pride campaign. The campaign led to Labour leader Ed Miliband appointing Liz Kendall to the newly created role of shadow minister for care and older people.

Alexander Wang x H&M Crop Top (S$79.90) and Alexander Wang x H&M leggings (S$99.90) – Wait a minute, does the price really matter??

Fortunately though, the campaign images of this collaboration did not disappoint – I mean really – the upcoming Alexander Wang x H&M collection indeed appeared fresh and exciting in the released campaign shots!Comment?

|Image from here.
Ever since the Internet came to existence, I've never regularly watched shows on the boob tube. I did follow a handful of TV series back in the day -- but not faithfully and the closest thing I had to 'binge-watching' was the Seventh Heaven marathon that the now defunct Studio 23 would show for an entire day during the Lenten season.
Times are different now. Everything is really at a touch of a button. Before, some local television stations would even boast how they have 'the same as U.S. airing' of different TV shows. Thanks to the Internet, I was able to watch Game of Thrones an hour or 2 after it's shown in the States, catch up on
all 10 8 seasons of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. and even revisit some of the greats like Seinfeld or Pushing Daisies (because I honestly had no idea about those before. Haha.) What's even more convenient is that you don't really need a TV, if you have a smartphone or an iPad, you're good to go.
Binge-watching has become an event for most of us (I commemorate these times by using #oldladyweekends haha), usually set during long holidays or even just after the work week. You hoard copies of different movies and sitcoms while you wait for that perfect moment where you could just consume everything you downloaded. If you think about it, in a sense, we don't just watch it, we devour seasons and seasons of different shows in one sitting. We are never satisfied with just one episode -- hell, I got the entire season with no commercials!
The irony is we look forward to weekends because we need the sleep and rest, but we end up glued to our screens for periods of time that we never keep track of until we realize it's time to have breakfast. My mom hates it when I do this but then I point out that time when they stayed up until 3 AM for 2 weeks because they got so hooked with Breaking Bad. HAHAHA.
Anyway, so much for the talk. Please pass the remote and let's start this list.
1. True Detective Season 2
The first season of True Detective was one of the most intelligent series I've watched for quite a while (though a lot of people find Rusty Cohle's existentialist rants too much). I loved the opening sequence and the music! When they announced a second season, I was really looking forward to it. And when Colin Farrell was cast as one of the leads, I was even more enthusiastic. I'm midway through this season and I am still enjoying it. It still manages to surprise me and make me gasp. I'm just really disheartened by all the reviews I'm seeing in Indiewire and the AV Club, which I basically trust more than IMDB or Rotten Tomatoes. It seems that that first few episodes were already the peak and the series went crumbling down to the end, at least that's what I've read on the headlines. :(
2. Survivor 30: Worlds Apart
It's been ages since I've watched Survivor. Before, I only got to watch what I could catch during weekends. I actually already finished Survivor 28: Cagayan and this one. I asked CJ, who's a Survivor fanatic, what other seasons best to watch and he told me about Survivor 7: Pearl Islands. I also just finished that last week. The show was superb! I found myself slow clapping alone (lol) when some of the alliances manage to pull off a blind side. This show is all sorts of insane! Hahaha. I kind of hate it though sometimes that being in the game gives everyone a license to lie and be sly and cunning. But I guess that's kind of the best part. I'm currently downloading Season 1. Hahaha.
3. Parks & Recreation
Gahd. I love this show so much. At present time, I've stopped watching it because I don't want it to end just yet. I hate that experience you get when something you always look forward to suddenly comes to a halt. It's like this hangover just hovering above your head. I know it may not be healthy to be attached to the characters in the show but I can't help it! Everyone of them is just so darn lovable and funny and witty! I was almost in tears when I saw that episode where they had the Unity Concert. I just knew that it was coming to an end and I am not prepared! Hahaha.
4. Brooklyn Nine-Nine
It's already happening. The signs are there. I think I've latched on to this series somewhere at the latter part of Season 1. At first, I didn't find it that funny but then all their characters began to develop and Chelsea Peretti was so sassy and freaking hilarious, I just can't stop watching. I love the relationship between Peralta and Captain Holt! The Season 2 ender, the part where Captain Holt was saying goodbye, brought me to tears (haha), but I learned the news that BILL HADER will be the next captain and I couldn't be more excited for Season 3! This is going to be epic! I can't wait!
5. Mr. Robot
This series speaks volumes to me because of the way it was executed: Elliot was constantly talking/narrating the thoughts in his head. It's like this machine with all these separate parts all moving at the same time, it's so exhilarating. There's depression, paranoia, technology, capitalism, anti-capitalism, drugs, morality and so much more in one show. And don't get me started with the cinematography! I love how they have that whole head space above the actors and the actors are placed at the corners, case in point here, and the symmetry of some shots! UGH. SO GOOD. It kind of reminded me of the whole feel of the film Comet. Maybe that's why I was charmed by that film so much. This is one of my favorites! I was really holding my breath when this scene happened because I was anticipating a perfectly symmetrical shot!
My favorite episode would have to be episode 6, View Source. It was brilliantly written and it was as if some of my distant thoughts were taken out of my head, and they said it out loud. Mr. Robot is certainly the best suspense thriller shows I've thoroughly enjoyed. I love every minute of it. I've yet to finish the entire season and I know I'm going to be in for a great ride!
6. Broad City
I don't like Broad City that much but I don't necessarily hate it. But I think Ilana Wexler is the most annoying character in the show, and it irks me every time she does that irritating head bobble. CAN YOU STOP THAT. There's funny and there's funny that can make you cringe. So far, this falls in the latter. And Ilana reminds me of Lena Dunham in GIRLS too much. I don't know what to make of this show. I can't decipher if it's really just annoying or it's awesome but I just don't see it yet.
I know that's quite a mouthful. Hahaha. I know this is an addiction but can you recommend more shows that I can drown myself into?

And while we still like to see the good guys save the day in the end, what's a movie without a good 'ol fashioned villain death? Few things are more satisfying than seeing the bad guys finally get their comeuppance, hopefully in a suitably dramatic fashion. But not all villain deaths are up to scratch. Here are six iconic villains that met not-so-iconic ends:
1. Boba Fett - Return of the Jedi
The absolute first time we see him in action in any Star Wars movie, Boba Fett is accidentally nudged by a blind Han Solo, which sets off his jetpack, and sends him flying through the back of the next shot, screaming, and he gets eaten by a giant sand-vagina. I guess underneath all that armor and fake badassery, this intergalactic bounty hunter is actually just one of the Three Stooges is disguise. Oh, and the sand vagina? It burps. IT BURPS. Apparently, after The Empire Strikes Back got so many plaudits for being gritty and realistic, George Lucas decided a good follow-up would be burping sand-vaginas and fighting teddy bears. You want to know the moment the Star Wars franchise started going down the drain, this is it. Goofy Boba Fett leads to Ewoks, Ewoks lead to Jar Jar Binks, and Jar Jar Binks... actually, fuck it, there's nothing worse than Jar Jar Binks.
2. The Wicked Witch of the West - The Wizard of Oz
At no point in The Wizard of Oz, does anyone attempt to explain why the Wicked Witch of the West just... melts when she gets water thrown on her. She can fly, teleport, create explosions, and command an army of flying monkey-warriors. And she's finally defeated at the climax of the movie... by a bucket of water. That right there is the definition of anticlimactic. Why is there a bucket of water lying there? Tips for potential supervillains: If there's an incredibly common substance that can disintegrate you, don't keep buckets of it lying around in your evil lair, especially when you're confronting plucky farm girls from Kansas who wouldn't think twice about angrily tossing a bucket of water on someone who kidnapped their dog.
3. Judge Claude Frollo - The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Claude Frollo from Hunchback of Notre Dame is actually pretty evil for a Disney villain, and he dies a pretty nasty death for a Disney villain in a pool of molten lead. The problem is... it's an accident. He's chasing the good guys with a sword on top of Notre Dame, he steps on a gargoyle, it breaks, makes a mean face at him, and then he falls to his molten death. Call me a snob, but "death by architectural flaw" just isn't a very satisfying way to kill a villain and resolve the plot of a movie. And what's really annoying about this particular scene is that there's a very clear shot of Frollo when he's wildly swinging his sword where he cuts halfway through a gargoyle. If he had stepped on that one, and it broke, it would have been that perfectly karmic evil-is-its-own-punishment shit Disney loves to do. But nah, it's just some random other gargoyle that breaks. And you know, not like any of the 15 others that could support the combined weight of Quasimodo and Esmeralda.
4. Dr. Kanaga - Live and Let Die
The voodoo-obsessed evil Dr. Kanaga from Live and Let Die tries to kill 007 by lowering him into tank of sharks. (Because he'd already escaped the pit of alligators and the coffin of snakes was occupied. Protip: If you ever capture James Bond, just shoot him. Then you can feed him to whatever you want.) Unsurprisingly, Bond breaks free and briefly and awkwardly fights with the knife-wielding Kanaga before forcing him to ingest a shark pellet that for some reason rapidly inflates things with air. And then Kanaga, uh, well rapidly inflates with air, floats into the air like a giant, drug lord-shaped balloon and explodes with a gloriously silly pop. I mean, come on, Kanaga is a homicidal drug lord, not Harry Potter's great aunt Marge. Live and Let and Let Die was one of the sillier Bond Movies, I mean, the Bond girl is a psychic named Solitaire, (much sexier than Free Cell) but come on, the main villain's death at the climax of the movie shouldn't make you bust out laughing. Although Roger Moore does drop what may be the driest one-liner in the history of mankind afterwards, so, yeah, maybe it was worth it.
5. Saruman - Return of the King
In the 4-hour extended edition of Return of the King, the evil wizard Saruman, his armies destroyed and his fortress in ruins, gets stabbed in the back, falls off his tower, and gets impaled on the spoke of a giant water wheel, finally undone by a combination of the machinery with which he was he was obsessed and his irrational disdain for humankind. That's perfect, it's symbolic, unique, and suitably gruesome end for a good villain. My problem is that in the theatrical version of the movie, you know, the version that normal people who aren't huge nerds willing to drop $60 on a 4-disc special edition watch, this doesn't happen. Nothing happens. Nothing. After defeating the evil wizard's army and destroying his lair, Gandalf's just like "Eh, it's fine. We'll just leave him in his tower. He probably won't try to wipe out an entire race of people again." Come on Peter Jackson, Saruman was the antagonist of for like, 6 hours of movie. That's a major loose end you should have tied up in the real movie, not the director's cut. You make movies, not video games. You can't release major plot points as DLC.
6. Bane - The Dark Knight Rises
After getting his back broken, his ass kicked halfway across the world, and undergoing the really heavy-handed symbolism of climbing out of a giant hole in the ground, Bruce Wayne finally returns stronger than ever to fight the also-masked badass villain Bane in a truly epic hand-to-hand duel. Bane fights well, but he's finally outdone by Batman when Anne Hathaway shows up on a motorcycle and shoots him with a cannon. Seriously. Remember the scene in The Dark Knight where Batman is riding towards the Joker on the exact same motorcycle, and the Joker just stands there because he knows Batman doesn't kill people like that? I guess all your thematic integrity just goes down the drain when you cast Anne Hathaway in your movie. Imagine if, instead of Batman capturing him, one of the police snipers had just pegged the Joker at the end of The Dark Knight. Welp, villain's done, thanks for trying, Bruce, but guys with guns save the day again!

Right tackle Austin Howard was dominant in Jets' victory
In a league dominated by coaches and quarterbacks -- both on and off the field -- we begin our look back on the Jets' dominant performance in Sunday's opener in what might seem to be an unusual place: one of the most underpublicized and underappreciated places in all of sports, no less the NFL.
We begin at right tackle, where the seeds of the Jets' 48-28 rout of the Bills were planted and allowed the coach and the quarterback to bask in the glow of the biggest opening-week offensive explosion in franchise history.
Rex Ryan and Mark Sanchez took well-deserved bows after the Jets dismantled a Bills team that had gone to great lengths to improve its defense, most notably by signing defensive end Mario Williams to a six-year, $100-million contract in the offseason. But if it weren't for unheralded right tackle Austin Howard, the results might have been much different.
Howard, who replaced the much-maligned Wayne Hunter after the Jets' second preseason game, so thoroughly dominated Williams that the Bills didn't even come close to sacking Sanchez. The quarterback had one of the finest games of his career, throwing for three touchdowns and a 123.4 rating, largely because he was able to sit back in the pocket and zing the ball downfield without having to run for his life as he did in the preseason.
It was therefore no coincidence that the very first player Ryan singled out Monday after watching video of the game was Howard.
"I thought Austin Howard had a great game," Ryan said. "There's no two ways about it. He had an outstanding game. That was impressive."
The Jets can thank the Giants for helping to set the stage for Howard's emergence. After all, had Jason Pierre-Paul, Justin Tuck and Osi Umenyiora not spun Hunter around like a top throughout the first half of their Aug. 18 preseason game, the Jets might not have made the decision to bench (and subsequently trade) Hunter and replace him with Howard.
It turned out to be the Jets' most important decision of the preseason.
If Hunter were still in the lineup, there's no telling what sort of havoc Williams might have caused Sanchez on Sunday. But Howard physically dominated Williams, and the prized free-agent defender was left to whine about the replacement officials and accuse Howard of deliberately using an illegal tactic of pushing his hands into Williams' face mask.
"Pass blocking doesn't include hands to the face," Williams said. "When someone tells the officials that, and they just walk away, or they don't call it, that is disheartening," Williams said of Howard, "He's a hands-to-the-face guy and they don't call it, so he will continue to do it."
Ryan's take after studying the game video closely?
"I'll say this: Mario Williams is a great football player, but I disagree with him on this."
Sorry, if you're that good of a pass rusher, you need to do better than Williams, even if there was some merit to his complaints. Defensive ends and linebackers are routinely held and disrupted in ways that can be called as penalties. But the truly good ones, such as Michael Strahan, Tuck, Pierre-Paul and Clay Matthews, are able to fight through it and maintain their effectiveness.
"All I know is there were no flags thrown," Howard said. "And I didn't hear too much complaining during the game, either. The game is going so fast that you can't purposely put your hands anywhere every single time. That's impossible. We had really good battles. If he feels that way, I didn't see any flags, and I didn't see it as much on the film, either."
Replacement officials or not, that was a monster performance by Howard, at a time when Sanchez needed good protection to produce this kind of statement game. Not bad for a kid who could only have imagined earning a starting job after coming into camp as a virtual unknown. An unsigned free agent in 2010, Howard spent one season in Philadelphia before moving to the Ravens' practice squad, where the Jets signed him to their active roster last Nov. 25.
"All I know are the expectations I have for myself," Howard said. "And those were to give 110 percent every day, work hard and let the chips fall where they may."
The chips fell perfectly.
For Howard and for the Jets.
The performance even caught the attention of former Jets right tackle Damien Woody, whose retirement before last season prompted the Jets to promote Hunter in the first place. Woody noted on his Twitter account just how impressed he was, then offered some advice to the young tackle. "Keep away from the press clippings & he'll be just fine!"
Memo to Howard: If you're still reading, tsk tsk.

Contextual Bandits in a Collaborative Environment
- When:
- Friday, February 9, 2018, 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm PSTiCal
- Where:
- Conf. Rm #1135
This event is open to the public.
- Type:
- NL Seminar
- Speaker:
- Hongning Wang (University of Virginia)
- Description:
Abstract: Contextual bandit algorithms provide principled online learning solutions to find optimal trade-offs between exploration and exploitation with companion side-information. They have been extensively used in various important practical scenarios, such as display advertising and content recommendation. A common practice estimates the unknown bandit parameters pertaining to each user independently. This unfortunately ignores dependency among users and thus leads to suboptimal solutions, especially for the applications that have strong social components.
In this talk, I will introduce our newly developed collaborative contextual bandit algorithm, in which the adjacency graph of users is leveraged to share context and payoffs among neighboring users during online updating. We rigorously prove an improved upper regret bound of the proposed collaborative bandit algorithm comparing to conventional independent bandit algorithms. More importantly, we also prove that user dependency relation is only needed to be time-invariant, such that a sublinear upper regret bound is still achievable in such an algorithm. This enables online user dependency estimation. Extensive experiments on both synthetic and three large-scale real-world datasets verified the improvement of our proposed algorithm against several state-of-the-art contextual bandit algorithms. In addition, I will also cover our recent progress in online matrix factorization, optimizing user long- term engagement, and bandit learning in a non-stationary environment.
Bio: Dr. Hongning Wang is now an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Virginia. He received his Ph.D. degree in computer science at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana in 2014.

The technologies behind Microsoft Hyper-V Cloud
Microsoft's Hyper-V Cloud brings private cloud to users, but what technologies make up its core? Our expert provides insight into this new cloud portfolio.
In part one of this three-part series on Hyper-V Cloud, we defined Microsoft's new private cloud offering. In part two, we'll analyze the hypervisor, hardware and other technologies at the core of Hyper-V Cloud.
Microsoft's Hyper-V Cloud represents a collection of software, hardware, management and business process integration that evolves simple virtualization to a fully-realized private cloud. But if you're the IT professional whose job it is to construct a Hyper-V Cloud, what kinds of line items will be on your bill of materials?
At the core of Hyper-V Cloud is, unsurprisingly, Microsoft Hyper-V. Operating as its singular hypervisor, Hyper-V is the platform upon which all your virtual infrastructure resides. Hyper-V is the hypervisor that drives Microsoft's virtual machines (VMs), which are the workloads that IT intends to manage and maintain.
Another part of this portfolio is a management studio that collects all your virtual assets together under a single pane of glass. In today's manifestation of Hyper-V Cloud, that management studio is System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2. Yes, that's the same Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) that you've seen before, and there are very few differences between the one you know and the one Hyper-V Cloud advertises.
Also key to Hyper-V Cloud is the hardware on which its virtual infrastructure sits. Hyper-V Cloud is arguably more about this hardware than any of the software that IT pros have already been using.
"But why?" you might ask. "What's so exciting about it? Does it look different, or perform its actions in a fundamentally different way?" Not entirely, but what is different is how that hardware is pieced together, along with what happens once it is built.
Microsoft has put together a relatively sparse page that lists its Hyper-V Cloud partnerships with many hardware vendors that have been around for years. What this website doesn't really explain is how those hardware vendors are evolving their products to better fit into the private cloud resource management model.
Private cloud moves forward with Hyper-V Cloud
There's one specific tab, however, that gives away the real meaning behind Hyper-V Cloud: Get Pre-validated Configurations. One of the central tenets of Hyper-V Cloud is that Microsoft's partners realize the ineffectiveness of how virtualization used to be constructed, along with its inability to optimize IT spending.
An analogy here works best. Remember when building servers by hand was all the rage? Our industry still calls this process "white boxing," as most of the cases for these do-it-yourself servers were white in color. If you took a look inside those white boxes, you might find a motherboard from one vendor, a set of RAM from another and disk drives from a third. Typically, no two white boxes were alike, because parts were added based on daily demands.
We know now that building a white box wasn't the best use of time or energy. Fifty different servers with 50 different hardware configurations made for increasingly challenging and expensive server management. And while we've stopped that horrible practice with our servers, we've picked it back up again -- out of necessity -- with our virtual environments.
If you're the IT pro who constructs a Hyper-V Cloud, what kinds of line items will be on your bill of materials?
Greg Shields
I say "out of necessity" because, until recently, constructing a virtual environment (or its evolved relative, the private cloud) required the white-boxing approach. There was no way to add a private cloud to the shopping cart on our hardware vendor's website. You needed a few servers from one vendor, some storage from another and networking from a third. Often times, the servers and storage were very different from each other.
As a result, many of virtualization's easy wins budget-wise died quick deaths as a result of non-optimized hardware and lack of experience in connecting the pieces.
Hyper-V Cloud, and indeed private cloud computing in general, look to move past white boxing through Pre-validated Configurations. These configurations comprise hardware designed with virtualization in mind. But more importantly, they're like selecting stockkeeping units on a website: "Need a virtual environment? Here's one that'll support X number of VMs. It'll be delivered on Friday. Need to add more resources to your virtual environment? Click here to purchase the necessary modules."
Leaning on the expertise of hardware vendors gives IT professionals the flexibility to quickly create private cloud resource pools that are pre-configured, pre-validated and able to support a known (and with some vendors, asserted) level of service. That's good for business, because purchases are significantly more plannable. It's also great for IT, because what arrives will be an environment already set up with the necessary performance and capacity levels.
There's a third part to this discussion of Hyper-V Cloud, and it's a new way to think about the four core resources in our data center: Processing, memory, storage and networking. I call it the "economics of resources." In the final tip of this series, find out how Hyper-V Cloud, as well as private cloud computing in general, takes a cue from Economics 101 to quantify resources through supply and demand.

I've been cleaning and re-organizing my room all weekend. While going through my pile of Things to Put Up On My Walls, I found a somewhat tattered photocopy of this amazing and heartbreaking Lynda Barry comic. Dispel any rumors you've heard about me being tough, hardcore, and/or punkrock -- Maybonne's angst about god, her queer uncles, and her grandmother's rage had me crying in thirty seconds flat.
You know how some books just blow open your entire world, teach you how to think in ways you never even thought were possible? Lynda Barry did that for me when I was 10.

Final Project – Mash up
Above is a link to the conversation Rohit and I had concerning our final project via Facebook Chat. This was just a day after Rohit had returned from Bangkok and he told me about his experience. It is very interesting and it also gave me a unique perspective looking at the photos he had uploaded onto Jumpcut. I felt very isolated and safe listening to his story and looking at the photos and i uploaded a video that expressed those feelings to me. It worked very well with music that Rohit downloaded… we added photos and tweaked the audio and placed words in the frames as well as splicing up the original video. I really like the 'Ken Burns' fade-outs and the way my video was spliced thru the photos in the end. My computer is giving me problems with the sound but Rohit sais the audio works fine; the audio is a combination of added tracks by Rohit and audio by me off the pre-recorded videos… I really like the end result and I think it was fascinating to work on this project with Rohit, particularly to hear about his experience in the midst of a government crushing protest, but also to create art with someone thousands of miles away. I look forward to doing it again! Here's a link to our film:
Hope y'all enjoy!
Networking Final
I know I haven't been a regular on the blogging scene (death in the family) but this class has really moved me forward in knowing more of what i can do on the internet and what it can do for me. Somethings never change though, like the real world stopping folks from communicating, and that has been the issue with our final project. I was in Texas without internet connections which made it difficult for Terry and I but more importantly, Rohit was in Bangkok being held 'hostage' by the airport takeover! Well I finally got the ball rolling with our first entry.
But I'm not sure if I have it set up so that they can find it. I know i've set it up so that anyone can edit it, but i'm concerned that a person outside the project might fiddle with it. I'll keep ya posted!

As related to osteoporosis, people generally wonder where they are going to get enough calcium on a raw food diet. In fact there are plenty of sources of calcium in a plant based diet. In fact a review of the subject in 1976 in the "Postgraduate Medical Journal" revealed that calcium deficiency through a plant based diet is not known to occur in humans at all. Osteoporosis is defined as the loss of bone mineral density, which causes the bones to become weak, porous and brittle. Women seem to be more likely than men to experience this due to the fact that estrogen helps to protect bones and after menopause, and there is less estrogen post menopause.
Since the body gets enough calcium through diet (see above) it needs to be absorbed into the body and put to good use. The catalyst for mineral absorption is vitamin D, so that is really what it needed for healthy bones. And vitamin D can be obtained easily through diet, supplements, or good old fashioned sunshine!Exercise keeps the bones strong, as well. Remember Wolff's law on bone density. Use it or lose it!
A main cause of bone density loss is an improper ph balance in the blood. This pH balance is referring ph in the bloodstream and tissues of the body itself. Our bodies must keep the acid/alkaline balance perfectly at all times.
A discussion of the importance of pH balance and bone health.
A pH measurement of about 7 to 7.4 is excellent. An improper diet can quickly make our body too acidic, resulting in a lower pH. When the body becomes too acidic, it will draw calcium and other minerals into the bloodstream to buffer the acidity and bring the body into a more alkaline state. It will take this calcium from wherever it can find it, including our teeth and bones!
Acid producing foods include dairy, caffeine, sugar. So we are much better off getting our calcium from greens, nuts, fruit and seeds.
Greens are unparalleled in calcium absorption. Because of the lower protein and salt, and higher potassium content, the body absorbs more calcium from spinach, kale, broccoli and collard greens than from milk.
Potassium also ensures better calcium absorption. Fruits with both potassium and calcium include oranges and bananas.
So the best way to ensure strong bones and avoid osteoporosis is to eat your fruits and vegetables, exercise, and get out in the sunshine!

Residents living close to where a blacked-out BMW flipped over near Canary Wharf killing a man and a woman have questioned why the driver was speeding along Marsh Wall.
Metropolitan Police officers cordoned off the road after the incident, which happened at about 5.15am on 22 January, at the Manchester Road junction. A a man in his twenties who was also in the black BMW was air lifted to hospital with non-serious arm injuries.
Roads in the area have since reopened as police continue to investigate how the BMW 5-Series came to overturn and a Met Police spokesman said it was not yet clear if another vehicle was involved in the accident.
Speaking to IBTimes UK, residents have described the scene shortly after the crash and questioned why the driver of the car lost control. One man who identified himself only as Joe was in bed with his girlfriend at her flat along Manchester Road when she woke to the blaring sirens.
"There were loads of police and at least two ambulances," the 31-year-old said. "I could not see the car from the kitchen window but it looked bad because of all the flashing lights. I didn't see any other cars so it must have been an accident.
"What I don't know is why was he speeding? At five in the morning? It's not like there is much traffic on the road at that time. If you want my personal opinion, it sounds a bit dodgy. A blacked-out BMW speeding at five o'clock in the morning. It was pitch black still outside. It's sad. It seems like such a waste."
Jane Moores lives in the same block of flats and was forced to change her way into work as a result of the road closures put in place. She was surprised the crash happened near to a roundabout. "I did not know there had been a crash until the morning when my bus was diverted. What I don't understand is how the car crashed where it did. The roads are not dangerous and it's easy to see the roundabout."
Another resident said only that that the driver of the BMW may have picked up speed along Marsh Road because the it dips before it gets to the roundabout.
