When I studied biology at my medical school we used to learn things about a century old: the famous Darwin's voyage on "Beagle" to the Galapagos Islands, the classical triad of his Theory of Evolution, etc.
At the same time we were told that there is no any evidence found in nature for many of these statemetns of his evolutional theory. For example people studied wildlife around Chernobyl and found that no new species emerged due to much higher mutation rate due to radiation. On the contrary, there were no significant differences between the species living under elevated radiation level and those living in "normal" conditions.
Do these facts somehow influece our understanding of the theory of evolution? Are there any breaking finding happended in the last 20 years that prove or disprove it?

Mafia is a 3D action game, played in the third person. The player assumes the role of a gangster in an American city of the 1930s, and gets a chance to live through gangster's rise and fall. In a spell-binding story of human hunger for power, he will experience everything that was taking place in the underworld during this stormy period: high-speed car chases, bootlegging, assassinations, and bank robberies. We set the story in a huge, fully-functional city, created 60 vehicles to choose from and more than 20 missions filled with non-stop action. The gameplay does not end there with over 40 little and large mods available, this game is great!
Here's the new 1.1 version of the data extractor compatible with the 1.1 Mafia.

About a week ago we all got the opportunity to get our hands on Sony's brawler, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
I mentioned in my review that BioShock's Big Daddy was one of the highlights, if for nothing else than his third-level special move. It's gorgeous, and one of the most uniquely done action moves that I saw from any playable character in the game. It's also somehow sad, inspiring memories of the twisted utopia that was Rapture.
In case you haven't seen it yet, watch all three super moves in the video above. Or feel free to skip to 25 seconds in for that third-level super move that I keep raving about.

When it comes to nudity in fashion magazines, North Americans continue to dig their heels while the Europeans continue to dress down in the name of art and style. American-born yet London-based editor of PETRI(E) Inventory 66, Zadrian Smith, weighs in on this controversial subject to help The Genteel get to the bottom of North American's apparent fear of nudity.

Cinnamon Leaf Oil
What: Cinnamomum Cassia, or Cinnamon, is an evergreen tree native to southern China, Bangladesh, India, and Vietnam. The aromatic bark of the plant is commonly used as a spice but is too strong for use in skincare. The oil obtained from the leaf of the Cinnamon plant is less irritating and suitable for use in skincare products (Wiki).
Cinnamon leaf oil is warm and stimulating, yet has strong anti-inflammatory properties and conditions the skin. The oil is considered an analgesic, antiseptic, antibiotic, astringent, and stimulating remedy. It has been used to treat infections, arthritis, and general aches and pains. It is also said to boost the mood and stimulate the senses.
Cinnamon leaf oil is known to reduce symptoms of colds and diarrhea. The oil is also said to be effective in killing mosquito larvae.
Origin: The leaves of the tree are steam distilled to extract the oil. Oil taken from the leaves, rather than the dried bark, tends to be a more delicate oil.
Products found in: Bar soap, facial moisturizer, shampoo, hand cream, hair conditioner, skin treatments, lip balm, toothpaste.
Alternative Names: Cinnamomum Cassia Leaf Oil, Cassia Bark Oil; Cassia Oil; Cinnamon (Cinnamomum Cassia) Oil; Cinnamon Oil; Oil, Essential, Cinnamon; Oil Of Cassia; Oil Of Cinnamon; Oils, Cinnamon; Cinnamon Oil, Essential; Cinnamon Oils; Essential Cinnamon Oil
Toxicity: Cinnamon leaf oil is generally classified as non-toxic or harmful by The Environmental Working Group's Skin Deep Database.

It seems as if Google Glass is conquering high fashion.
The wearable computer will be the subject of a 12-page editorial in the fashion bible Vogue, according to Mashable. Previously, the computer that sits on one's nose like a pair of glasses, has been described as dorky or geeky - likely because of the goofy pictures taken of them, but Vogue will have models with matching outfits.
The spread will be photographed by Steve Klein in a futuristic pictorial, "The Final Frontier" with fall season outerwear against a barren planetary landscape.
U.S. & World
Previously Marie Claire creative director and Project Runway judge Nina Garcia said she would be streaming at New York Fashion Week with Google Glass, a first for the device and Fashion Week. Warby Parker also signed up to make more stylish frames for the wearable computer.

The word "sequester" might be on many Americans' minds, but for advisors, "fiduciary" is the elephant issue inside the beltway. As the SEC and the Department of Labor consider their separate rulemakings on the fiduciary issue, AdvisorOne is partnering with fi360 to gauge the attitudes and real-world practices of advisors of all kinds when it comes to the fiduciary standard.
The 2013 Fiduciary Survey can be taken here, and all advisors, regardless of business or compensation model, are urged to make their voices heard on the fiduciary standard, whether in the area of retirement planning (the DOL) or in more general financial planning advice (the SEC).
The survey is open now and will remain available through the end of March 2013. Respondents can maintain their anonymity in taking the survey, but the findings in aggregate will help inform the discussion on this crucial topic.
The findings of the 2013 Survey will be published on AdvisorOne and presented at fi360's annual conference in April.
AdvisorOne's Melanie Waddell has kept her ear to the ground on the progress of both bodies on the fiduciary issue.
Melanie reported that acting SEC Chairwoman Elisse Walter (right) testified before the Senate Banking Committee that the commission was "giving serious consideration" to its proposed rule to put brokers under a fiduciary mandate, the study of which was mandated under the Dodd-Frank Act, Section 913. She also confirmed previous reports that the agency will move forward with a request for public input on the rule. The response to Walter's Feb. 14 testimony from Sen. John Tester, D-Mont.: "I think this [rulemaking] should be a priority because it is a benefit to investors. You should push it."
As for Phyllis Borzi and the DOL's redefinition of fiduciary under ERISA, in Investment Advisor's cover story for March 2013, Borzi reiterated that the new version of the Department's fiduciary rule will prove the Employee Benefits Security Administration has listened to industry concerns over its proposed rule. "When people see the reproposal, reasonable people with open minds will say DOL listened, that DOL addressed the legitimate issues that were raised in the long comment process," Borzi said again. "The reproposal will be better, clearer, more targeted and more reasonably balanced."
Since a "concept release" on the fiduciary standard could come from the SEC by early summer, while the DOL fiduciary redraft is scheduled to be released in July, now is the time for advisors' unfiltered voices to be heard on the subject by taking the 2013 Fiduciary Survey.
You can read the findings on AdvisorOne of the 2012 Fiduciary Survey, and you can take this year's 2013 Fiduciary Survey here.

According to Variety.com, the telethon announced last Thursday on Instagram by Jamie Foxx will now also include appearances by Beyoncé, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Barbra Streisand, Reese Witherspoon, and Oprah Winfrey, among others, that on Sept. 12 will raise money for Hurricane Harvey relief.
"Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Harvey Relief" will air live at 8 p.m. ET across ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, and basic cable channel CMT. Country superstar George Strait will appear on the telecast in concert from the Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Texas. The telecast will originate from the Universal Studios lot, Times Square and Nashville's Grand Ole Opry.
Money raised from the event will be distributed to a range of charities aiding recovery efforts in Houston, which was devastated last week by the storm and widespread flooding left in Harvey's wake. The organizations include the United Way of Greater Houston, Habitat for Humanity, Save the Children, Feeding Texas and the Mayor's Fund for Hurricane Harvey Relief.
The death toll from Harvey has hit 63, according to CBS News. Tens of thousands of people in the southeast Texas region have been displaced from homes that were damaged or destroyed after days of torrential rain and winds.
Other celebrities set to appear in live or taped segments include Karlie Kloss, Rob Lowe, Matthew McConaughey, Dennis Quaid, Adam Sandler, Ryan Seacrest, and Blake Shelton.
"Hand in Hand" was the brainchild of music manager and producer Scooter Braun's SB Projects. Braun and Allison Kaye will serve as executive producers along with Den of Thieves' Jesse Ignjatovic and Evan Prager and Houston-based rapper Bernard 'Bun B' Freeman.

To Live And To Die
Around this time of year folks look back at the previous year's goals, whether or not they've met them and begin planning for the coming year. I'm not going to be doing this. 2009 wasn't the year I wanted it to be on many levels and if I can leave it behind and not look back ever again I'll be content. I'm not a calendar year kind of guy, and have been trying to lump my goals by my age. Later this month I'll be turning 33, and will seriously begin making plans for the next year on THAT schedule.
The holidays treated me far better than I probably deserve to be treated, though that self-indulgent bit of modest martyrdom aside I won't complain about it. For as good as I was treated, however, it didn't feel like the holiday I remembered it to be. I was stressed, poor, worried, unhappy with myself, and couldn't muster enough holiday spirit to get into things. It was just sort of this thing I was expected to do and take part in. It didn't feel right, and I vow to make next year more festive. I've always liked the holidays and want to get back to really taking a part in it.
The one thing the year end holidays bring like clockwork, which I enjoy far too much, is New Year's celebration. We don't drink, so our celebration is a bit different from most other folks. We mainly just eat a lot. Every year Amu and I throw a New Year's breakfast for a few invited guests. Two years ago, on a dare, a tradition was born. I introduce to you, THE DEATH CREPE:
We'd begun doing a traditional breakfast, with eggs, bacon, toast and the like. Amu'd been in a crepe making kick, so we also used the opportunity to have a crepe breakfast. Tuna melt crepes and whipped cream with strawberry crepes were the order of the day. I was dared to combine some things for a MANLY crepe, and did just that.
The Death Crepe is a bottom crepe, cheddar cheese, bacon, an egg fried in bacon grease, and [not pictured here] another layer of cheese, with a second crepe to top it off. It's hardened arteries on a plate, and a suicidal tradition at the beginning of the year.
This year, being our third year surviving the Death Crepe, we brainstormed how we could make it MANLIER! Next year we hope to make it EVEN MORE DEADLY! We also hope to survive it long enough to show you.

I don't mean to pile on the CFP Board, I really don't. As I've written in my blogs over the past couple of months or so, the Board has been doing some very good work of late: sending to the SEC (along with its FP Coalition partners, the FPA and NAPFA) an excellent defense of a true fiduciary standard for brokers, and enforcing its definition of "fee-only" (the strictest in the industry), in actions against three of its own officers, and Camarda Wealth Advisory (which responded by filling a lawsuit).
I know the Board is trying to the right thing—and making some tough calls to do it. But why do they have to do it in such an amateurish way? It only provides fuel to their critics, and makes things harder for their supporters.
In last week's blog, I wrote about the new revelation that the reason the Board sanctioned and forced three of its Board members to resign (including chairman Alan Goldfarb) was that part of the Camardas' response to its investigation was to accuse them of also inaccurately describing themselves as "fee-only." This also explained why Goldfarb received the Board's public sanction: so that it could be used in defense of the Camarda's charges of "unfair treatment."
But that's the old news. Now the fourth (or is it the fifth?) shoe to drop comes from Ann Marsh reporting on FinancialPlanning.com's ongoing investigation of the Board's "Find a CFP Practitioner" website. That Sep. 20 article revealed that there were some 486 CFP brokers from the four wirehouses who "call themselves fee-only on its website—in open violation of the board's own rules for use of the term." Now, in fairness, we should point out that the Board doesn't actively police CFPs, it only investigates complaints by third parties (or piles on, I mean, follows up on action by other regulators). But clearly obvious violations on its own website? Really?
But wait: there's more. In response to this, shall we say, troubling revelation, what does the Board do? Quietly send a letter to the offending brokers, including its prohibition against employees of commission-charging entities from calling themselves "fee-only," and asking them to reconsider their disclosures or face further action? Oh, no: that would make too much sense. Instead, the Board changed the "compensation" line of every CFP on its website who chose "fee-only" to "did not provide," as if they didn't want to reveal what their method of compensation is—and then sent a letter to all CFPs who claim to be fee-only on their site, along with the standards for doing so.
Here's how the Board's release explained its action: "Earlier today, CFP Board sent a communication from Michael Shaw, Managing Director of Professional Standards and Legal, to more than 8,000 CFP® professionals who have selected "fee only" as their method of compensation on its "Find a CFP® Professional" search tools… …CFP Board recently became aware that the information contained in the "Find" search tool relating to some CFP® professionals' compensation arrangement may be inconsistent with CFP Board's compensation disclosure rules…We noted that if it comes to our attention, subsequent to the opportunity to fully understand and comply with our rules, that a CFP® professional is misrepresenting his or her compensation, the matter will be referred to our enforcement process."
I know, you just can't make this up, right? 8,000 CFPs de facto assumed to be inaccurately describing their compensation status and given time to "come clean" and correct the situation? The number of questions this raises would fill a book. But I'll ask only one: Was Alan Goldfarb given a chance to reconsider his compensation selection? How about the other two Board members? The Camardas? (Okay, it was three questions.)
Is it just me, or has this whole fee-only police thing gotten entirely out of hand? Note to the CFP Board: If you want to be the regulator of financial planners you have to be both fair and even-handed. What's more, like both the SEC and FINRA, you have to recognize that not all infractions of your rules are hanging offenses: some warrant fines, other (like Bernie Madoff) warrant jail time and still others only require a warning to cease and desist.
CFPs who mislabel themselves as "fee-only" clearly fall into the latter category. A public sanction should be the last resort, not the first step. So lighten up, guys. Oh, and while you can't undo the damage your over-reaction has caused, you owe Alan Goldfarb and the other two Board members an apology.

Training the next generation of satnav experts
The fourth ESA International GNSS Summer School, held in Slettestran, Denmark, early this month saw young engineers and scientists learning about satellite navigation systems and competing to propose an original satnav application.
The Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) Summer School, the second organised under ESA auspices, saw the participation 1–10 September of 48 students from 22 different countries, including graduate students, doctoral candidates, early-stage researchers and young professionals.
The school was supported this year by a total of 20 lecturers from 13 countries, including renowned scientists, professors and professionals in the field.
Rene Oosterlinck, ESA Director of Galileo and Navigation-related Activities, formally opened the school. This was followed by the inaugural lecture of Frank Van Diggelen, author of the book A-GPS: Assisted GPS, GNSS, and SBAS and Technical Director of Broadcom Corporation, who provided a comprehensive review of time, distance and navigation techniques throughout history and the outlook for this field.
The summer school was hosted by the University of Aalborg (Denmark) and organised in close coordination with the University FAF Munich (Germany), with the support of Stanford University (USA), Graz University of Technology (Austria) and the Institute Superieur de l'Aeronautique et de l'Espace (France).
The summer school provided students with an overview of the design and development of satnav systems and their applications. Lectures on GNSS fundamentals included navigation solution, access techniques, modulation, ionosphere, troposphere, interference and multipath.
Dedicated lectures covered existing and planned GNSS initiatives worldwide (GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou/Compass, IRNSS, QZSS), GNSS regional augmentation systems (EGNOS, WAAS and MSAS), GNSS receivers, GNSS/INS sensor fusion and assisted GNSS technologies.
The sessions concluded with an outlook for the field – 'Quo Vadis GNSS' – given by Günter Hein, Head of ESA's Galileo Operations and GNSS Evolution Department.
The programme included a competition in which students proposed innovative GNSS applications, including a description of the proposed product/service, the technical approach for its implementation, a market analysis and a marketing summary. A jury of experts from several European universities, Stanford University and ESA selected the best proposals.
The programme and lectures were received enthusiastically by the attendees, as indicated by some of the student's comments: "A wonderful opportunity for learning and networking," said Diana Fontanella from Italy; "One of the most interesting experiences of my life," noted Moshe Tocker from Israel; "Nice experience, I learned a lot together with a group of lovely people. A recommendation for everybody," added Kim Vijle from Belgium.
The school is part of ESA's Education in Navigation (Edunav) programme, which fosters GNSS training. Edunav, a joint venture between ESA's Education Office and the Navigation Directorate, includes the creation of dedicated doctoral research opportunities, GNSS training tools for universities, support to GNSS conferences, the set-up by ESA of a GNSS wiki (Navipedia) and the preparation of dedicated educational books on GNSS.

All of the waiver-wire action of the past few days (Rod Barajas, Johnny Damon, and Manny Ramirez leap to mind) got me wondering whether the Mets will make any more moves before the August 31st deadline. The Mets have already passed a few players through waivers successfully, but I don't anticipate any movement on them due to their price tags (Carlos Beltran) or limited value (Jesus Feliciano, Mike Hessman, Luis Castillo, Jeff Francoeur, and Oliver Perez).
There are, however, two other players on the roster who should be placed on waivers immediately: Pedro Feliciano and Hisanori Takahashi. Don't get me wrong: both players are useful cogs in the bullpen. But given their respective ages and price tags, they are luxury items that aren't necessary for a .500 team that's fallen out of the playoff race.
Ted Berg addressed potentially trading Pedro Feliciano back in July. He was right then, and he's still right today (the only difference being that the market has significantly narrowed due to the waiver requirement). Feliciano is earning $2.9 million and can expect a raise in the arbitration process this season. While the Mets almost never go in front of an arbitrator, but you can expect them to settle with Pedro somewhere between $3.5 and $4 million. Heck, the Mets signed Scott Schoeneweis to a 3 eyar/$9 million deal just three seasons ago, and I'm sure a) Feliciano is a better pitcher, and b) the market has gone up since then. Can the Mets really afford to pay a lefty-specialist that much when they have so many other roster spots to address?
Takahashi is only making $1 million and to the best of my knowledge (read: the Mets' page on Cot's Baseball Contracts), he won't be eligible for arbitration until 2013, meaning the Mets can retain him until that time while giving him only minimal raises. However, he'll be 36 next season and there's no guarantee that he'll be able to match his current level of success (a term I use loosely: his 98 ERA+ indicates that he's a slightly below-average pitcher). Sure, there may not be a market for Takahashi, but it can't possibly hurt to gauge other team's interest.
As for Feliciano, there's an additional wrinkle to consider: MLB Trade Rumors is predicting that he'll qualify as a Type B free agent. As such, if the Mets offer him arbitration and he declines, they'll receive a sandwich pick in next seasons amateur draft, which will likely be worth more than any prospect they could land after putting him on waivers. But, there's definitely a market out there for him. For instance, the Yankees would probably be interested in adding a solid lefty-specialist, and that might force Tampa, Boston or even Texas or Minnesota to be interested, if only to their potential playoff opponents from adding to their arsenal. Heck, I could even see the Phillies claiming Feliciano just to ensure that he doesn't land on the Braves and wreak his usual havoc on Ryan Howard, Raul Ibanez, and Chase Utley in the playoffs. The Mets might luck into landing a prospect who can help them more cheaply, but if they don't find a return that they're interested in, they can still pull him back from waivers. There's really no downside (aside from bruised egos, I suppose).
There are several scenarios in play and the Mets should at least take this opportunity to make Feliciano and Takahashi available to other teams. Get a gauge of their value, see what they're worth to the contending teams in both leagues. It's possible that they've been placed on waivers and it hasn't been leaked yet (waivers are intended to be confidential until another team claims a player), but if they haven't yet, there's no real excuse for it. They should be making every attempt to maximize their available assets.

Giant Story Problems: Reading Comprehension through Math Problem-Solving
|1 – 2
|Lesson Plan Type
|Standard Lesson
|Estimated Time
|One 30-minute & one 60-minute session
|Lesson Author
Magalia, California
This lesson focuses on reading comprehension skills as they apply to mathematics story problems, as well as on written and verbal mathematics communication skills. Working as a class, students read a story problem and answer a series of questions designed to bring out the essential points of the problem. Students then draw a picture on chart paper showing the details of the story problem. They write both an equation and a sentence to represent the problem. Finally, students repeat the process with new problems, working in small groups to create posters using images, text, and mathematical equations to represent a story problem.
Sample Giant Story Problems: Use these sample problems for groups to solve.
David and Phyllis Whitin talk about the value of writing in the mathematics curriculum in chapter one of Math Is Language Too: Talking and Writing in the Mathematics Classroom. They state that mathematics and language are both "ways for learners to make sense of their world" and that "writing and talking are ways that learners can make their mathematical thinking visible." One of the most concrete examples of mathematics as language is in the reading and solving of story problems.
Story problems depend on reading comprehension skills for the development of successful problem-solving strategies. Having students collaborate on story problems gives them the opportunity to learn by talking, collaborating, and sharing ideas as they compare pictures, words, and numeric symbols for consistency. The Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, by The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, includes communication as a mathematics tool for all levels of learners and suggests collaboration as especially beneficial for young learners.

An influential parliamentarian in Suriname who was a former rebel leader and led the "Jungle Commando" insurgency has announced that he wants to run for president during the 2015 elections in the South American nation.
Ronnie Brunswijk is a member of Mega Combination coalition that put Desi Bouterse in power in 2010. At the time, Brunswijk's support of Bouterse was a surprise since they were once bitter enemies.
Brunswijk grabbed the microphone during a Saturday night concert by U.S. rapper Rick Ross and told the audience in Suriname's capital of Paramaribo that he wanted to be a candidate for president during the next general elections. The parliamentarian was a promoter for the show and threw money to the audience from the stage when announcing his candidacy.
Once one of Bouterse's bodyguards, Brunswijk led the rebels in the 1986-1992 Bush War against Bouterse's then-military dictatorship. He set up his Suriname Liberation Army, better known as the Jungle Commando, to win land and other rights for Maroons, descendants of escaped African slaves in the former Dutch colony. Brunswijk is a Maroon.
Under a 1992 peace agreement, the rebels turned over their weapons in exchange for jobs and more police powers in the country's interior.
After the accord, Brunswijk went into gold mining and logging and is now considered one of the wealthiest people in Suriname. In 1999, a Dutch court sentenced Bunswijk in absentia to eight years in prison for cocaine trafficking during the war years, but he insists he is innocent and has never been locked up for the conviction.
Bouterse was also convicted in absentia of drug trafficking by a court in the Netherlands. He also is accused of executing 15 political opponents in 1982.
Bouterse won a majority of the popular vote in 2010 elections due to widespread dissatisfaction with the economy, and he negotiated with Brunswijk's faction and other parties to secure the two-thirds support needed for the presidency.
Governing coalition spokesman Ricardo Panka said Monday that members were surprised by Brunswijk's announcement and noted that Bouterse intends to run for a second term.

Your Will: Overhaul vs. Update
If there is one thing we can count on in life, it's change. Because change occurs in our lives all the time, it's important to keep estate plans up to date.
But how do you know which situations simply require updating your existing will with a codicil and which ones necessitate a whole new will? This guide can help.
Draft a New Will if:
- Your marital status has changed. Whether you're a newlywed or are going through a divorce, be sure to take time to update your will. You may want to remove your previous spouse or add your new one to your estate plan.
- Your children are grown. If you created a will when your children were young, you'll likely need an overhaul. If they are old enough and financially stable, you may no longer need provisions for guardianship or trust funds.
- You move to a different state. Legal requirements of a will vary from state to state. Consult an attorney in your new state to ensure your will is valid.
Update Your Existing Will if:
- Your executor's situation has changed. Has the executor, guardian or trustee named in your will moved or passed away? Update your plans to reflect these changes.
- You wish to support a favorite cause with a gift. This simply requires including a few lines in a codicil—a legal instrument made to modify an earlier will. Contact the Office for Estate and Gift Planning at firstname.lastname@example.com or (502) 852-5051 to receive official language you can share with your attorney for including a gift to the University of Louisville in your will.
- You want to make changes to an inheritance. For example, you would like to change the amount of money you'll leave to a sibling from $25,000 to $50,000. Consider giving a percentage of your estate to people or organizations—that way your gift remains proportional, no matter how your estate fluctuates.
Review Your Goals
With tax law changes this year, it's the perfect time to review your plans and ensure they are still in line with your philanthropic goals. If you have questions about including a gift to UofL in your will, or need help getting started, please contact the Office for Estate and Gift Planning at firstname.lastname@example.com or (502) 852-5051.

A group of reform-minded Brooklyn Democrats are looking to beat the party machine at its own game, recruiting candidates to run for oft-overlooked posts on the Democratic County Committee. And we wish them luck.
County Committee members make up the grassroots level of leadership within the local Democratic Party. It's an unpaid and largely thankless job, which means it's not necessarily an attractive position, considering in the end you must campaign and get elected, and then fill a seat with little to no authority or influence.
Generally, members of the Democratic County Committee represent just the few blocks around their homes, or roughly 700 to 1,000 registered Democrats. For each of these "Election Districts" there are two or four County Committee members (depending on population), equally divided between male and female representatives.
The vast majority of the 5,000 County Committee seats across Brooklyn go unfilled, which means that if only one candidate were to run for them, he or she would win automatically.
While members of the County Committee wield little influence, they do play one major role, and that is deciding who will run for middle-of-the-term vacancies in state office, which as we all know is becoming a much more common occurrence.
The new group looking to recruit candidates, the Brooklyn Reform Coalition, argues that Democratic Party leaders in the borough abuse this important function of the County Committee to usher into office people loyal to Kings County Democratic Party leadership.
And the vacancy doesn't have to stem from corruption, although that seems to quickly becoming the norm.
The more odious practice is that of a sitting state legislator, who knows he or she is not going to seek re-election, simply resigning just before their term is up. This forces a special election of which the County Committee - again loyal to the Democratic Party - will nominate a hand-picked candidate, who is more often than not picked because of their own loyalty to party leaders, not necessarily on their qualifications. That person is almost assured victory in districts where Democrats far outnumber Republicans.
The candidate is not chosen by the people in a primary, they are simply selected. Democracy thwarted.
And this just isn't a problem in Brooklyn, it's an issue across the five boroughs.
In 2010, when the last biannual County Committee elections took place, the group New Kings Democrats successfully elected over 100 County Committee members in Brooklyn, the vast majority of whom had never run for office before. One of those was Lincoln Restler, who represents an Election District in North Brooklyn.
Before, we said that the post had little to no power, which is technically true, but given the right person with passion and energy, a County Committee member can become an outspoken advocate on important issues, much the way Restler has done in the neighborhoods of Greenpoint and Williamsburg.
Therefore, running for County Committee can be a good way to get into the world of politics without having to mount a major campaign or do a lot of fundraising.
A Democracy needs many voices and fresh ideas, and we think Restler gives the best reason for running for County Committee:
"We're asking you, your spouse, your roommates, your friends, your family members, your neighbors - every Democrat in Brooklyn - to run for office. Why? So that the most important decisions affecting our democracy aren't made in the backrooms and the clubhouses - they're made by you."

Freshman guard Michael Frazier has struggled from 3-point range in the postseason.
ARLINGTON, Texas — Michael Frazier II insists he hasn't hit the freshman wall.
The smooth-shooting, first-year Florida guard will look to regain his lost stroke tonight when the Gators face Florida Gulf Coast University tonight in the Sweet 16.
The 6-foot-4 Frazier emerged as a pleasant surprise for the Gators this season due to his ability to score from the perimeter. But Frazier went a combined 0 of 5 from 3-point range in his first two career NCAA Tournament games. One of his 3-point attempts hit the side of the backboard, a rarity considering Frazier is still shooting 46.3 percent (50 of 108) from the beyond the arc this season.
"As a shooter, you're going to have off games and unfortunately, I haven't been on these last couple of games," Frazier said. "But we've been winning." Since sitting out a game Feb. 23 at Tennessee following a concussion, Frazier is shooting just 33 percent (8 of 24) from 3-point range. But Frazier said he hasn't felt the fatigue that freshmen sometimes go through late in their first seasons. "I just really have tried to push through everything, persevere through everything that's been thrown at me," Frazier said. "Just trying to get better, even this late in the year." Frazier said he's put up some extra shots this week during Florida's workouts at Southern Methodist University. The Gators stayed in Texas for the week after advancing in last weekend's regional in Austin. "My coaches and teammates, they keep telling me to stay confident and shoot when I'm open," Frazier said. "That's what I'm going to continue to do." Surprise guest Florida has a surprise guest during its open pregame shootaround Thursday. Texas Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski, in uniform, showed up to watch the Gators go through the motions at Cowboys Stadium. Pierzynski, who went to high school at Dr. Phillips in Orlando, grew up a big Gator fan. Though he signed with the Minnesota Twins out of high school, Pierzynski has kept a strong allegiance to his favorite boyhood college team, showing up to Florida football and basketball games during his offseason. Asked about this season's Gator basketball team, Pierzynski said: "I think they have a shot to win it all. I like the way they're playing defense this season." Pierzynski said he won't be able to attend the Florida-FGCU game because the Rangers have an exhibition game Friday night at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, against the San Diego Padres. During the shootaround, Florida looked OK putting the ball in the basket while adjusting to the sightlines of the cavernous football stadium. Senior Kenny Boynton, in particular, made a high percentage of his open shots. Carried away Florida Gulf Coast coach Andy Enfield may have gotten a little carried away during Thursday's pregame press conference. When asked about the Florida program, Enfield gushed about the character of UF's players, saying he recruited many of them when he was an assistant at Florida State from 2006-11. Then, in promoting the Sweet 16 showdown between in-state teams, Enfield said: "It's very ironic that we're playing Florida in the Sweet 16. I blame this on the Selection Committee. This should be a Final Four game, not a Sweet 16 game." No team has ever reached a Final Four with a seed lower than 11. Three 11th-seed teams (LSU in 1986, George Mason in 2006 and VCU in 2011) have made Final Four runs, with none advancing to the title game. Ironically, George Mason (coached by current Miami coach Jim Larranaga) was knocked off by eventual national champion Florida. Pep rally fallout Apparently, playing in a Sweet 16 game is enough motivation for the Gators. Florida players say they were made aware of Florida Gulf Coast's expletive chant toward the Gators during Monday's pep rally. Florida Gulf Coast offered a formal apology, which Florida accepted Wednesday. "I don't care," Florida junior center Patric Young said. "I don't worry about that. They can say all this stuff, but when it comes down to it, I just hope both teams come with our heads on straight ready to play for 40 minutes. It's gonna be a battle." Added Florida junior forward Casey Prather: "People told me about it, but we don't really get caught up in that, wrapped up in that. They do what they have to do to get ready, we do what we have to do to get ready." Contact Kevin Brockway at 352-374-5054 or email@example.com. Also check out Brockway's blog at Gatorsports.com.

Such great quality! Would definitely recommend!

Glossier than expected but looks good. HOWEVER - I did not realize that all of the people commenting that they framed it are probably in the UK. American buyers should note that this print has European sizing. I had no idea that the sizings here and there aren't the same until I received this and then could not locate a frame at any store for it. Ended up getting a floating/glass frame which works ok but would have preferred a simpler, more affordable black border. I wouldn't have bought this if I had realized, as the print isn't really big enough to justify buying such a big, fancy frame, in my opinion. And would have preferred a matte finish. Maybe I missed that option somewhere. Nothing wrong with it, just turned out to be a hassle. Fine product for UK buyers though! Or American buyers who plan ahead.

Cops: Student calls in bomb threat to keep drop-out secret
Woman had still collected thousands in tuition from her mother,
An ex-student in Connecticut is accused of calling in a bomb threat to a graduation ceremony to keep her drop-out a secret from her family.
Danielle Shea, 22, was arrested in a cap and gown after the threat forced school officials to move Quinnipiac University's College of Arts and Sciences graduation from the campus's quad to its sports arena Sunday, Hartford TV station WVIT reported.
According to police, Shea dropped out of school last year but had still collected thousands of dollars in tuition money from her mother.
She bought a cap and gown for the ceremony, but panicked when she didn't see her name on the graduation roster, police told the Hartford Courant.
Police said Shea called university police Sunday and told them there was a "bomb in the library." She then called again 17 minutes later, saying, "several bombs are on campus. You haven't cleared out graduation. That's not a good idea."
Shea now faces charges of threatening in the first degree and falsely reporting an incident.

CarlosReyM necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 85 diseños de 23 diseñadores freelance.
NMWelcomeHome.com Real Estate
I am six years in the business of real estate. I am moving from a large national company to open my own company that will try to build a business model that is relevant to todays real estate market.
It is a big step in our market as it appears many are flocking to big corporations. My hope with this design is to show that an independant can shine like the rest with a logo design that is professional, well thought out, integrates with our culture here in NM and just plain looks good. I want something that a customer sees and in their mind immediately thinks that we are one of the top agencies. I carry a lot of listing inventory and do a lot of advertising so I hope to carry this logo design across to web, print and signage.
The market I am targeting is buyers and sellers in the real estate market.
Buyer's just want to buy a house from someone that is reputable. I think the image you have, meaning your business card, web, and advertising factor into customers decisions to work with you. A logo that is well done will have the perception of being professional.
Most seller's care what signage will be put in their front yard and the general advertising that will be done. It will be important that I show strength behind our company.
My website is the center of my company & the most important of everything I do. I want the colors to match my website http://www.nmwelcomehome.com. I would like a simple design that grabs attention; very crisp, defining lines & one that would transfer well to web, for sale signs, flyers, print & business cards.
My design does NOT have to have a house, door, keys, roof line etc. Some dominant RE companies such as keller williams, remax, coldwell banker don't have that in their logos.(still open to the idea)
I would like to intergrate a hot air balloon (s) icon with the text of my business name (NMWelcomeHome Real Estate ,NM Welcome Home Real Estate, or NMWelcomeHome.com Real Estate) as the balloon fiesta albuquerque is well known around the world. See attached file for example of balloon or http://www.balloonfiesta.com. I'm sure someone like you will have something much better, but for reference.
I also put an example of my for sale sign idea & would want the balloon to shadow behind everything on that sign. (for reference so you can see where I'm going with this design)
I would like it to fit on my website top left see http://www.nmwelcomehome.com. Where my current 'logo' is on business cards & print advertising.
It would be nice to alternate the colors for different marketing for example if the balloon was that maroon color it could also be the beige color for diffrernet marketing pieces.

As one of the founders of data warehousing back in the mid-1980s, a question I increasingly ask myself over 25 years later is: Are our prior architectural and design decisions still relevant in the light of today's business needs and technological advances? I'll pose this and related questions in this blog as I see industry announcements and changes in way businesses make decisions. I'd love to hear your answers and, indeed, questions in the same vein.
Dr. Barry Devlin is among the foremost authorities in the world on business insight and data warehousing. He was responsible for the definition of IBM's data warehouse architecture in the mid '80s and authored the first paper on the topic in the IBM Systems Journal in 1988. He is a widely respected consultant and lecturer on this and related topics, and author of the comprehensive book Data Warehouse: From Architecture to Implementation.
Barry's interest today covers the wider field of a fully integrated business, covering informational, operational and collaborative environments and, in particular, how to present the end user with an holistic experience of the business through IT. These aims, and a growing conviction that the original data warehouse architecture struggles to meet modern business needs for near real-time business intelligence (BI) and support for big data, drove Barrys latest book, Business unIntelligence: Insight and Innovation Beyond Analytics, now available in print and eBook editions.
Barry has worked in the IT industry for more than 30 years, mainly as a Distinguished Engineer for IBM in Dublin, Ireland. He is now founder and principal of 9sight Consulting, specializing in the human, organizational and IT implications and design of deep business insight solutions.

Dusk to Dawn in the Salar de Atacama
Chile April 2018.
The suns shadow races across the floor of the Salar de Atacama. Volcan Licancabur on the left.
The anti-solar point above Jupiter.
Perhaps a glimpse of the Gegenschein as The Milky Way rises. Then Zodiacal Light, and Dawn.

Geminids 2017 (select 1920 and full screen for optimum viewing)
Geminid Meteor Shower, Dec12-14 2017
For this years meteor shower, I made big plans.
The moon was not an issue, rising as a crescent just before dawn.
The shower peak seemed to favour North America. All I needed was the right location.
At home in Southern Ontario it was a frigid -20c, but in Portal Az it was a wonderful +20c by day and 0c at night.
The best skies in all of America was where I needed to be.
I rented a house for three days in Portal, and set up multiple DSLR cameras to create my timelapse sequences.
It all worked out as planned,.
I recommend viewing in full screen mode.
The video begins with a single shot taken after sunset of a lone Geminid and the Zodiacal Light over Portal Az.
The first timelapse sequence was shot to give a daytime view of the Chiricahua Mountains.
The second timelapse sequence transitions from day to night and the Zodiacal Light.
On the left side of the screen, just after dark as the Zodiacal Light emerges you will see a bright fireball and smoke train.
That was one long, bright fireball, as this sequence was shot at 14mm.
The third timelapse sequence was taken with an 8mm fisheye pointing straight up. The field of view is 180 degrees, from horizon to horizon.
The camera ran all night revealing hundreds of meteors flickering against the rotating sky.
Towards dawn there are ripples in the atmosphere that remind me of gravity waves.
The zodiacal band is visible all night from these class 1 skies.
The fourth timelapse sequence was taken with a 24mm lens and the DSLR fixed-tracking the sky with Gemini, Orion and Taurus in the frame.
The fifth and final sequence was taken with a 14mm lens, and the DSLR mounted on a head panning from pointing towards the south horizon at nightfall to pointing west by sunrise.
All of the meteors in the last two sequences were processed individually by hand as a layer on top of the respective timelapse sequence, to create the meteor "lingering" effect. About two hundred layers were required to create this effect.
The final still frame is a composite of the brightest meteors from the tracked timelapse sequence, with a layer of Ha added, taken with a 14mm lens on my CCD cameras on the night of the 12th. I know it sounds like a lot!
But there you have it, one of the best meteor shower experiences of my life!
