People's Collection Wales
The People's Collection Wales is a contemporary, interactive and bilingual online experience dedicated to the history of Wales and its people. It is a rich cultural and social treasure trove that charts the human story of Wales with an archive of reminiscences, photographs, video and audio for future generations.
We engage with museums, archives, libraries, community and local history groups and education providers to encourage digitisation and publication online. The site combines makes innovative mapping and GIS as well as mobile GPS technology in order to interpret history and heritage in a new way.
As a company, we deal with a range of stakeholders, from museums, archives and libraries, to community and history groups and education providers. We provide digitisation advice and encourage and facilitate participation online and in new technologies.
We often get requests for training, presentations, attendance at conferences and other events in order to promote our work with People's Collection Wales and in the field of digitisation.
Logos are attached for the designers in TIFF format. Please note the Peoples Collection Logo cannot be altered. The Culturenet Cymru logo however does have some leeway. The text to the right of the logo, can be moved below the logo.
Looking for a double sided multi use business card for our staff to use.
An eye catching card drawing strongly on People's Collection Wales branding but retaining some Culturenet Cymru identity - see the attached logos.
The cards will be used by all staff, so the email area should allow for that person to input their name before the @ symbol in our email
The cards should include the Culturenet Cymru and People's Collection Wales logos (attached)
A design using the front and back of the card to form a wraparound design is acceptable.
Our work makes use of interesting and diverse images and we'd like to try incorporating these into a design, e.g. using a selection of images that could be used (i.e. produce 5 or 6 cards of the same design, but with different images). Find images on our main site http://www.gtj.org.uk
You do not have to use images within the design, this is just a suggestion.
As a bilingual organisation we use both Welsh and English and our business card should reflect this, below is both sets of text which should appear on the card.

Eliminate All Poisons From Your Body in 48 Hours: A Weekend Detoxification Diet Plan
Do you lack energy and feel tired? And is your skin dry and you have dark circles around your eyes that you can't cover? All of these signs indicate that your body is full of toxins.
When you are full of toxins, you become susceptible to flues and viruses. In such conditions, the body desperately needs a detoxification.
In fact, you don't have to feel these signs to detox your body, and to restore its energy. You can detox from time to time and live a healthier lifestyle.
You can do it this weekend and set a menu that will cleanse you from all toxins.
The cleansing process that will enable detoxification of your body can improve 5 organs: liver, kidneys, lungs, intestines, and lymph.
The detoxification plan requires consuming low fat food, potatoes, meat, and drinking plenty of liquids.
It is preferred to be made two times a year for a period of 10 days.
However, another option is to make a weekend detoxification several times a year, if you don't have so much time. You will be amazed by the results. You will feel best effects if you use nettles, dandelion, and birch tea. Moreover, you will need to practice regular physical activities, like hitting the gym, walking, running, and swimming.
Drink 250 ml/8.4 oz warm water every morning on an empty stomach.
Breakfast: The recommended amount of warm water, a cup of oat flakes with added spoonful of linseed, 250 ml plain water or green/dark tea, 200 ml /6.7 oz diet yogurt or almond milk, half a cup of fresh grained blueberries (or another fruit).
Lunch: 250 grams of grilled hake, two cups salad (tomato, arugula, green), Swiss chard with olive oil and potatoes, a smaller banana and a slice of melon, and 250 ml plain water
Snack: 180 ml/6 oz ordinary yogurt, an apple, ¼ cup of pumpkin seeds, and 250 ml plain water.
Dinner: A little integral pastry, 150 grams of tuna grilled in a foil or on a barbecue, ½ cup steamed vegetable (spinach or broccoli), 2 cups salad with lemon juice and olive oil, and 250 ml plain water or anise tea.
Start with the recommended amount of warm water.
Breakfast: 200 ml almond milk or diet yogurt, a cup of oat flakes with a spoon of linseed, pear and green tea.

Another invitation brief
Today the Acting Solicitor General filed an invitation brief in Maxwell-Jolly v. Independent Living Center of Southern California, Inc. (09-958), recommending that the Court deny certiorari. At issue in the case is whether Medicaid recipients and providers may maintain a cause of action under the Supremacy Clause to enforce 42 U.S.C. § 1396a(a)(30)(A) of the Medicaid Act by asserting that the provision preempts a state law reducing reimbursement rates; and whether a state law reducing Medicaid reimbursement rates may be held preempted by Section 1396a(a)(30)(A) based on requirements that do not appear in the text of the statute. The Acting Solicitor General's brief is available here.

Samira Mazloom-Poseidon Jewellery
At Design Interviews
Interview with Samira Mazloom : Frank Scott: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?. Samira Mazloom : I wanted to create a powerful collection. One that would provide its owner with power and self confidence. The kind of jewellery that can turn a regular person into a super hero. .Frank Scott: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?. Samira Mazloom : I wanted the pieces to be intriguing, beautiful and at the same time dangerous looking. .Frank Scott: What are your future plans for this award winning design?. Samira Mazloom : I am not done with this collection yet. Poseidon has so much potential to expand. I will be adding new pieces to this collection. .Frank Scott: How long did it take you to design this particular concept?. Samira Mazloom : Almost 16 months from the trigger to the end. .Frank Scott: Why did you design this particular concept? Was this design commissioned or did you decide to pursuit an inspiration?. Samira Mazloom : Poseidon is my graduation collection. .Frank Scott: What made you design this particular type of work?. Samira Mazloom : When I was working on my graduation project, an incident happened to a loved one, left me feeling frightened and in need of protection. I kept thinking of different ways that I would defend myself, just in case. And just then I thought I needed to design something that is beautiful but at the same time potentially dangerous. .Frank Scott: Where there any other designs and/or designers that helped the influence the design of your work?. Samira Mazloom : No .Frank Scott: Who is the target customer for his design?. Samira Mazloom : I think wearing a piece of Poseidon is like walking in your favourite Stilettos. It gives you this sense of confidence like you are on top of the world. .Frank Scott: What sets this design apart from other similar or resembling concepts?. Samira Mazloom : I have not come across any resembling concepts so I guess it is very unique and this sets it apart. .Frank Scott: How did you come up with the name for this design? What does it mean?. Samira Mazloom : When I was working on this collection, for no particular reason at all I started reading The Odyssey, which was left unfinished and after that The Divine Comedy, and then I really got into Greek mythology and just started reading. And I came across Poseidon who became my hero. Poseidon is one of the most powerful gods in the Greek mythology. When benign, Poseidon was the creator of islands and calm, peaceful seas but this powerful god had a dark side (just like us humans) When provoked, he struck the ground with his trident and caused earthquakes, drownings and shipwrecks. There was no better figure to represent my collection which is a package of beauty and adornment that could turn into a lethal weapon. .Frank Scott: What is the most unique aspect of your design?. Samira Mazloom : It's Uniqueness! .Frank Scott: Who did you collaborate with for this design? Did you work with people with technical / specialized skills?. Samira Mazloom : I had a wonderful photographer who managed to turn the pictures in my head, into amazing photos. Thank you Rob. .Frank Scott: What is the role of technology in this particular design?. Samira Mazloom : Poseidon was created mostly, using traditional techniques with a lot of hands on work. .Frank Scott: Is your design influenced by data or analytical research in any way? What kind of research did you conduct for making this design?. Samira Mazloom : I started looking at the mourning culture and the Victorian era which some how led to interviewing people from the Punk and Goth culture and reading about them. I also looked at Naturalism and Symbolic art. For some reason I also started reading The Odyssey and after that The Devine Comedy, which I never finished by the way. I think the collection was influenced by all this. .Frank Scott: How did you decide to submit your design to an international design competition?. Samira Mazloom : An amazing sponsor persuaded me to do so and I am forever grateful. .

text: Milan Tattoo Convention: On the Road in Italy By Kent Ok, so this blog was supposed to be posted over a week ago, but I could not muster the strength or energy to get it done. It seemed that I somehow got brushed by the black finger of death while in Milan, with the worst illness I have faced to this day. I have no clue what this Italian funk was that I caught, but I do not wish that shit on my worst enemy… Well ok, maybe they too should be struck with it one day… The journey overseas started out amazing. I got to the airport and while waiting on the plane the ole familiar faces of Brad Fink and his entourage showed up. We sat and chatted until time to board, and then we all made our way towards the back of the plane where we were all seated. A few moments later Jason Schroder, Nikko Hurtado, Carlos Rojas and several others boarded. It was like we were on a "tat bro" field trip over to Milan. I love this about conventions. You might travel alone, but you are always with friends. The tight-knit community we have is unparalleled to any other industry. And what a fucking breeze the Italian customs was, I wish it was this easy to get into every country! Not even a question asked or a second look, just a head nod and another stamp on the passport. Once I got checked into the hotel Adam Hayes, Jason Schroder and I toured the city for a few hours. I took them over to see the Skull Chapel [San Bernardino alle Ossa] I highly suggest going to see this if you come to Milan –very small but worth it if you can find it. All that is etched onto the outside stone is "Date et Dabitur Vobis." The chapel is located on the other side of the Duomo away from all the trendy expensive touristy shit. What a long fucking day that was. This was convention number two without drinking and I am feeling it. I feel great not being hung-over, but fuck I miss a drunken sleep upon arrival. Lying in the room trying to cope with the adjustment of the six-hour time change and lack of sleep I received a text from Oliver Peck. Apparently he did not book a room and wanted to crash with me and Chriss Dettmer... I had a feeling this lack of sleep was about to become a trend for the weekend. Both the roommates arrive… we had dinner, mingled some and Chriss was off to bed. I saw that Oliver was hungry for the nightlife, so after downing a few Red Bulls it was off into the night with him. You know what that means…. Party, party, party and dice game after dice game. My luck just was not with me this go-round –three times I was up to win over 200 Euros and all three times it was stripped away with the last roll of the dice… Fuck L, R, C. [Left. Right. Center.] And fuck c-lo. The next morning Chriss and I found our booth, lugged the mags in, set up and prepared for our day. What a great room we were in, it was off the beaten path, but with neighbors like Javier Rodriguez, Alex Reinke, the Horiyoshi III family, Guen Douglas, Horimasa, Crystal from Gomeniko Books and more, who can complain! The convention flew by like normal and I got to see Chriss bang out some really nice tattoos over the weekend and was even able to get one for myself! Milan is definitely one of my favorites, there are so many amazing artist and friends attending this. It is well worth the trip over to be around the talent that attends this show… –with the likes of Henning Jorgensen, Valerie Vargas, Yushi Takei, Dan Sinnes (Featured in TAM Issue #24), Alex de Pase, Javi Castano, Jondix, Theo Jak, Chad Koeplinger and Jack Rudy just to name a few. Miki Vialetto does a great job with this show as well as the London Convention. Both of these are highly recommended to attend as an artist or just a visitor. I hope every one that attended made it back safely and was able to avoid the horrid grip of what seemed like the hand of death that some how embraced Chriss and I. I hope to never catch this ungodly disease again.

From the first time Frenchman Philippe Petit read about the Twin Towers (while they were still being built) he dreamed of walking on a high-wire strung between the buildings. On August 7, 1974 his dream became a reality. Man on Wire recounts the great adventure that Philippe and his friends went on – the hard work, the determination and training, the massive organizing and sheer skill and beauty of the act of high-wire walking.
Footage from Philippe's personal collection are integrated into what becomes a riveting and often tense story of exactly how this illegal ("but not wicked or mean") act is pulled off. Philippe begins by setting up practice wires in a field near his home in France. As warm-ups to the Twin Towers, he walks a high-wire between the towers of Notre Dame and then between the towers of Sydney's Harbour Bridge (with the famous Opera House in the background) Planning the Twin Towers walk took many months; still under construction and only partially occupied, Philippe spent many hours studying how to enter the building with nearly a ton of equipment, what the roofs were like, where would be the best places to anchor the wire.
The night before the walk, Philippe and friends entered the Towers, one team in each building. Both teams had close encounters with guards and equipment problems (imagine for a minute how they got that wire from one building to the other!) The morning dawns misty and foggy, but Philippe never hesitates; he spends nearly an hour on the wire, dancing, saluting the crowd, even laying down, all on a wire suspended nearly a quarter of a mile in the air.
There is an undercurrent of sadness here as well; friendships strained by the white hot passion of a single-minded obsession fade and break. Present-day interviews of the participants show how much they still care and how this adventure profoundly affected their lives. Even more poignant – not once are the events of 9/11 mentioned, nor the fact that the Towers no longer exsit. This lovely, touching documentary stands as a tribute to the lost Towers and the dreams they generated.

Goldschmidt singles to right. 1st and 2nd.

The older I get - the better I was

I miss Raisor
Clutch defense by Votto.

Larkin Fan (08-19-2013)
The Votto detractor like to slam for Votto for some of the easy plays he's flubbed (which he has) but you certainly don't hear them giving him credit for some of the downright fabulous plays he makes. Sad.

8-23-11 PNC Park
I attended only one out of the final five games of the homestand. Things have been busy lately with a new baby, a tripled workload at work (100 students to 325), and a house to upkeep.
I made sure to attend this game though as Zack Hample would be in attendance. Hample if you don't know is a New York City ballhawk on his way to snagging 1,000 baseballs this year. He has already attended over 100 games this year and is planning on visiting all 30 major league stadiums this year.
Before the gates opened, we got a picture, taken by Ian Weir:
The man on the left is one of Zack Hample's clients, I believe his name was David (Zack has a business that charges $500 to attend a game with him), Zack is in the yellow shirt, them Nick Pelescak, Zac Weiss, and myself. The children are David's.
Once the gates opened, I got on the board early by getting a toss up from Jason Grilli. He's been with the team for only a short amount of time, so he hasn't been made anti-fan by Joel Hanrahan yet.
My second ball of the day was a clean catch right behind Ian Weir here:
Ball #3 was a ground rule double that skipped over the fence quickly and off of Ian. He slowed it down and deflected it right to me here.
My fourth ball was another clean catch in the second row of section 136. I had to climb over a bleacher or two to get into position.
When the Brewers came out I got ball #5 off the bat of Ryan Braun. He hit it to the back of section 135, so I scooped it up as it was rolling under the bleachers down towards the front row. One of the ushers started heckling me screaming at me "You just stole a ball from that kid!" and "You'll get yours." The kid had already snagged three balls of his own, and he was two rows below where the ball had hit. Since there was a sparse crowd, if I wasn't there the ball would've eventually rolled down to him, but you would've thought that I ripped the ball from his hand.
I later went up and confronted the usher (who's not a regular in left field) and explained that I didn't steal a ball from anyone. The ball was on the ground when I picked it up. I further pointed out that I gave my sixth ball of the day, which was glove tricked in left field to a young fan in the front row nearby who hadn't gotten one yet (in the light blue).
The family was ecstatic. The usher, who I guess was upset that I had already gotten too many baseballs possibly realized he overreacted and was happy that I gave one of mine away. I typically always give the glove trick balls away if I have to ask someone to let me in to the front row for access to the ball below.
Anyhow, my seventh ball of the day was thrown by Frankie De La Cruz here:
I was making my way over to center field, and De La Cruz was retrieving a ball. I was above the bullpen and just held my glove up and he threw me a perfect strike. Here he is over in center field.
After BP was over, I took off and went home, stopping off at GetGo later that night to get 27+ gallons of gas for free.
My next game will be 9-5-11. Yeah, it's basically a 2 week break. I thought about attending 9-3 with Nick in Washington DC, but heard from him that there wasn't batting practice due to a concert.
I don't know if I'll get to too many more road games. I'd like get to most of the few remaining home games at PNC Park and then possibly a playoff game in October. We'll see.
My goal is 413. I have 11 games left (3 of those are day games – which I'll leave if there's no BP). So I need to 57 balls in those 11 games which is 5.2 a game. My average this year is a tad over 5.3. Should make it somewhat challenging.
Game: 7 balls (4 hit, 2 thrown, 1 device)
Season: 356 balls (149 hit, 75 thrown, 84 device, 48 found)
Games: 67 games
Career: 1,478 balls

Disabled Students Programs and Services
Accommodations for Students with Disabilities
What are accommodations?
Accommodations are the means by which the college allows the student to compensate for limitations resulting from a disability. Accommodations are not designed to give students an advantage but rather to allow them an equal opportunity in the classroom. Although equality of opportunity will not guarantee equality of results, it will give students with disabilities the opportunity to live up to their potential for success.
What qualifies?
Students may be eligible for accommodations if they meet course requirements and have a documented disability which interferes with learning. Accommodations are always determined on a case-by-case basis.
How does a CCSF student apply for accommodations?
Students with disabilities are encouraged to be seen by a DSPS counselor who will assess the student's functional limitations and determine reasonable accommodations. When appropriate, the classroom instructor will be notified of recommended accommodations and will be asked for signature approval.
Why do we have accommodations?
Under provisions of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), CCSF is required to provide accommodations for students with disabilities to ensure that the student receives an equal opportunity. To ensure equal opportunity, the post-secondary experience of students with disabilities must be comparable to that of non-disabled students.
Modifications of academic requirements may be necessary to accommodate qualified disabled students. Modification, if necessary or appropriate, may include changes in the length of time necessary for completion of degree requirements, substitution of specific required courses, and adaptations in the manner courses are conducted or learning is demonstrated. Requirements essential to the program of instruction or related to licensing requirements are not regarded as discriminatory.
Students with impaired sensory, manual, language or processing skills must be allowed to use educational auxiliary aids. Such aids may include taped texts, readers, interpreters, note takers, tape recorders, adapted classroom equipment, and other similar services or equipment.

Apple chief Tim Cook wants his employees to follow corporate rules and to tattle on those who aren't, according to a report.
Apple executives sent out a company-wide email requesting that employees review Apple's business conduct policy which describes how employees should act both in and outside Apple's hallowed doors, according to 9to5Mac. Why the new emphasis on the document? That part is unknown but has led to all kinds of speculation by onlookers. There does seem to be some concern about dealing with "customers, business partners, government agencies, and fellow employees."
The conduct code also mentions antitrust and anti-corruption laws that employees should know and act accordingly. In a video, Cook strangely quotes activist Martin Luther King, Jr., and asks that employees tell someone if other workers aren't following the Apple code:
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
As Dr. Martin Luther King once said, the time is always right to do what's right. At Apple, we do the right thing. Even when it's not easy. If you see something that doesn't meet our standards, speak up. Whether it's a quality issue or a business practice, if it affects Apple's integrity, we need to know about it.

Michele Bachmann Has No Comment On the Teen Suicide Epidemic in Her Own Backyard
Gay-hating presidential aspirant Michele Bachmann represents a district of Minnesota which public health officials have labeled a "suicide contagion area," according to a deeply disturbing piece in Mother Jones. Here's why: In the space of two years, nine teenagers from the area have taken their own lives—the most recent one in May—while "many more" have attempted suicide unsuccessfully. Most of them were known or perceived to be LGBT youth.
This rash of suicides began when a seventh-grader named Samantha Johnson, new to the area after her family had moved from North Dakota, had shot herself on Veterans Day 2009 with a hunting rifle. Samantha was a chubby, tomboy-ish girl who played sports, and was teased mercilessly by the other members of her volleyball team. Hers began a wave of similar suicides in the 38,000-student Anoka-Hennepin school district, the largest in Minnesota.
At least four of the suicides involved kids known or at least perceived by their peers to be LGBT. Since January, seven of Fietek's students at Anoka Middle School have been hospitalized for attempting or threatening suicide. [...]
Anoka-Hennepin has a policy on the books known colloquially as "no homo promo," which dates in back to the mid-1990s. Back then, after several emotional school board meetings, the district essentially wiped gay people out of the school health curriculum. There could be no discussion of homosexuality, even with regard to HIV and AIDS, and the school board adopted a formal policy that stated school employees could not teach that homosexuality was a "normal, valid lifestyle."
As for Ms. Bachmann, she has made a grand total of zero comments on the teen suicide epidemic in her own district. None. In fact, she has voted against proposed anti-bullying legislation, making the following, mindbogglingly insensitive statement on the matter at a hearing in 2006:
"I think for all us our experience in public schools is there have always been bullies, always have been, always will be. I just don't know how we're ever going to get to point of zero tolerance and what does it mean?...What will be our definition of bullying? Will it get to the point where we are completely stifling free speech and expression? ... Will we be expecting boys to be girls?"
Anoka-Hennepin's "no pro homo" policy has been amended slightly in recent years. Teachers and school staff are now instructed to remain "neutral" on the subject of homosexuality if it ever comes up in class. Both policies were championed by the Minnesota Family Council and the Parents Action League, which also lobby to make "reparative therapy" part of the official school curriculum. That's the gay deprogramming technique practiced by Bachmann's husband, Marcus Bachmann, at Bachmann & Associates, his sham of a Christian counseling clinic.

Artist 'shocked' by Westport Library's cancellation of 9/11 exhibit
An exhibit of work by artist Karen E. Gersch -- "Still Smoldering/Reflections of 9/11," collages that she created after witnessing the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York City -- had been planned at the Westport Library for more than a year.
So Gersch was "shocked and disappointed" when, as the artwork was being installed in the library's glass Riverwalk display case last Friday, the exhibit was suddenly, and without warning, cancelled by library officials.
Gersch, whose artistic portfolio also features portrayals of clowns, said the 9/11 pieces were "chosen specifically" by library staff for the exhibit, which was scheduled to run through Nov. 30. And, she added, the library had images of the art to be included in the exhibit about six months ago. "So it's odd this would happen," she said.
"I've never shown this work before," said Gersch, who was living in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001, and watched the Twin Towers collapse after two jetliners were flown into the buildings. "I started them right after 9/11 and have only shown them privately."
She said there is "nothing graphic, nothing gory" depicted in the images, but admitted the destruction portrayed in her art makes "it is a strong exhibit."
Gersch said she was told the exhibit was pulled because of reaction by parents to the subject matter. The Riverwalk display case is located near a activity room for children.
But Maxine Bleiweis, the library's director, said there were "no objections from anyone" about the exhibit. She said there were two inquiries made to her regarding what the content would be in light of the 9/11 theme.
"That in itself is not unusual," Bleiweis, who is on vacation, wrote in an email responding to questions from the Westport News. "We get many inquiries about what we are planning." In this case, she said, the inquiries "caused me to turn my attention more carefully to the exhibit."
She added that it was solely her decision to cancel the exhibit. "I determined it was the wrong location for the topic," she said. "I was the person who raised the main concern of the impact this particular exhibit would have."
Bleiweis explained that, as library officials routinely display material in many formats, they "carefully consider the impact on our public."
For Gersch's 9/11 exhibit, the greatest concern was about its placement in an area that is a general passageway, she said. "Our desire is always to stimulate thinking, but not to be disturbing unless a person chooses to delve further into a topic," she explained.
In this case, Bleiweis said, "9/11 had a very personal impact on many people in this area." The library director added it wasn't until she saw "the full impact of the visual display in that location" that she decided the display case was not appropriate.
Asked if her decision could be considered censorship, Bleiweis replied, "not at all," describing it as "selection" not to exhibit the work.
Gersch, who lives in Orange County, New York and previously lived in Westport 17 years, said since the exhibit was cancelled that the library staff has been "very supportive and sympathetic, and are making an effort to find another venue."
But, she added, her "continued learning curve indicates that this exhibit needs to be in a gallery or museum or university that invites controversial matter or sensitive adult material."
Gersch said she wishes she had thought to create a special presentation on 9/11 for children to introduce them to her work. "I wonder if that would have made a difference here," she said.

this question live via air-to-ground transmission.
When exiting the shuttle for a
space walk, do you sense a temperature change?
David, that's a great question. The temperature in space is kind
of hard to define 'cause there aren't very many molecules on which
temperature is defined. But we certainly do radiate in our space
suits and we certainly generate a lot of heat inside. So it kind
of depends on what your workload is and whether it's day or night.
I find that at nighttime my hands and feet do get a little cold,
and to compensate, we have heaters on the gloves. And then during
the daytime or when I'm working hard -- I get nice and toasty inside
the suit -- we have a little thermostat that we use to adjust the
temperature so that we can make sure and stay cold. Good question!

Rafael Nadal's 30-match claycourt winning streak ended on Friday when the world number one was stunned 7-6(1) 6-4 by fellow Spaniard David Ferrer who executed a perfect game plan to reach the Monte Carlo Masters semi-finals.
Sixth seed Ferrer, who had beaten Nadal on clay only once 10 years ago and was brushed aside by the muscular left-hander in the French Open final last year, relied on his devastating forehand to prevail in over two hours.
Nadal, who made an uncharacteristic string of unforced errors, was looking to recapture his Monte Carlo crown after Serb Novak Djokovic had ended his eight-year reign in last year's final - his last defeat on the slow surface.
Ferrer will next face world number three and Australian Open champion Stanislas Wawrinka, who dismissed Canadian eighth seed Milos Raonic 7-6(5) 6-2 in his quarter-final.
Former world number one Roger Federer, seeded fourth, got off to a sluggish start but saw off local favorite Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 2-6 7-6(6) 6-1 to set up a meeting with second seed Djokovic or unheralded Spaniard Guillermo Garcia Lopez.
Swiss Federer made a series of backhand errors as Tsonga pinned him behind the baseline with his flat forehand, but regained composure in the tiebreak of the second set.
Tsonga's limited fitness was then exposed as he lost five games in a row and Federer finally converted a break point at the 16th attempt as he marched towards the last four.
Earlier Ferrer ended a long wait against Nadal, having never beaten him on clay since their first ATP meeting in Stuttgart.
"I have had to wait 10 years to beat him on clay. It was a long wait but I am pleased with the win and the way I played," Ferrer told Spanish TV.
"I spoke with my coach and we had a clear gameplan but with Rafa it's always tough because he doesn't allow you to follow it. The good thing was I was able to deal with his attacks and stay strong physically for the whole match."
Nadal said he did not manage to stick to his own gameplan.
"I didn't play the right way. I didn't play with the right intensity with my forehand," he explained.
"I played too short. I gave him the chance to have the control of the point almost all the time."
Lengthy dogfight
Ferrer broke Nadal's serve in the second game, only for the top seed to break back in the third after a 16-minute dogfight in overcast conditions at the Monte Carlo Country Club.
Ferrer saw off a potentially decisive break point in the 11th game and the opening set went to a tiebreak, which he won 7-1 as Nadal collapsed.
Nadal continued to struggle in the second set, with a weak drop shot being easily retrieved by Ferrer as he broke for 2-1.
The world number six stole Nadal's serve again for 5-2 as the clock ticked past the two-hour mark.
Nadal broke back for 5-3 and held for 5-4 but bowed out on the first match point when he netted a routine backhand.
Earlier, Swiss Wawrinka, who did not play on Thursday because his third-round opponent Nicolas Almagro of Spain withdrew due to injury, got off to a slow start against Raonic, needing a tiebreak to pocket the first set.
He was then unstoppable, outclassing the Canadian who showed his limitations at the highest level.

Atheist Protest at DNC Demands Leaders 'Separate Their Religion From Their Office'
An Atheist group protesting at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, N.C., this week has revealed that its prime motivation is to raise awareness for the importance of the separation of church and state.
The Charlotte Atheists and Agnostics (CAA), an American Atheists affiliate, held its first protest late Tuesday afternoon at the corner of Stonewall Street and Caldwell Street, where members from the group spoke about the necessity of freedom from religion.
"The main goal was to demonstrate for the separation of church and state. We feel strongly that keeping religion out of government benefits all citizens, the religious and secular alike," Shawn Murphy from the CAA shared with The Christian Post in an email.
About Tuesday's protest, he added: "The event went very well. Despite the rain, we had a good turn out and plenty of positive interest. I was disappointed that the stage was not covered in any way. We got quite wet. I was delightfully surprised by the level of dedication of our speakers and audience who took the weather in good humor."
The atheist group clarified that its members were not necessarily protesting the Democratic Party, but using the widely-publicized event as an opportunity to draw attention to their mission.
"There is a need, even at the DNC, to make our voices heard in opposition to the overwhelming influence of religion in our political system. True, the Religious Right has a stranglehold on the Republican Party, and they are a huge threat to us, but there are also those in the Democratic Party who refuse to separate their religion from their office," the atheists explain on their Facebook page centered around the protest.
A host of other religiously motivated groups have also made their voices heard at the DNC, before and during the three-day event. On Friday, a confrontation between pro-abortion activists and a pro-life group that had come to pray for aborted babies at the site of the convention resulted in an 11-year-old pro-life girl being brought to tears, after which she wrote a letter describing her ordeal.
Meanwhile, delegates at the convention voted to reinstate the word "God" back in the Democratic National Convention's platform, although it took three roll calls to do so.
"If the narrative that's being presented on your station and through your channel and your network is that Democrats are godless people, they ought to know better. God is not a franchise of the Republican Party," said Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin as he criticized Fox News in its coverage of his party striking the words "God" and "Jerusalem" from its platform.
"If you're trying to draw some conclusion that the Democrats are godless, present your evidence. Present your evidence," he added.

The Army is not family oriented imo. p.s. infantrymen need to be in the best shape. You are going to be lugging around about 80lbs on your back for miles. p.s.s. Grunts are looked upon as stupid too,lol.

Apr 4, 2007 (CIDRAP News) – In a major effort to track influenza viruses in nature and learn more about how they interact with the human body, the federal government this week announced a $23-million-a-year program to fund research centers at six institutions around the country.
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) unveiled the 7-year plan to fund six "Centers of Excellence for Influenza Research and Surveillance" at universities and other institutions from New York City to Los Angeles.
"The goal of the newly created centers is to provide the federal government with important information to inform public health strategies for controlling and lessening the impact of seasonal influenza as well as an influenza pandemic," the NIAID said in an Apr 2 news release.
Research under the NIAID contracts will range from monitoring of Americans' responses to flu vaccination to identification of possible targets for new antiviral drugs and testing of pigs and wild birds. Each center will collaborate with a number of other agencies and institutions.
The new initiative builds on a program launched by the NIAID after the original human outbreak of H5N1 avian flu in Hong Kong in 1997, the agency said. In that program, led by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, researchers studied flu viruses in waterfowl and live bird markets in Hong Kong, shedding light on the natural history of the viruses. St. Jude is one of the six centers named this week.
The six centers, with their principal investigators and main areas of research as described by the NIAID, are as follows:
- St. Jude, Dr. Robert Webster. Research areas include antiviral drug regimens, factors in flu virus resistance to antivirals, virus transmissibility, and human defenses against the H5N1 virus. The center will also maintain surveillance for SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) in Southeast Asia.
- University of California, Los Angeles; Dr. Scott Layne. Researchers will monitor animal influenza internationally and in the Pacific Northwest and will maintain a high-throughput laboratory network for studying circulating flu viruses and antiviral resistance.
- University of Minnesota, Minneapolis; Dr. Marguerite Pappaioanou. Scientists will monitor flu viruses in migratory birds, conduct human flu surveillance in Thailand, and monitor US farm workers who work with swine. (See further information below.)
- Emory University, Atlanta; Dr. Richard Compans. Researchers will study how flu viruses adapt to new hosts and are transmitted between different hosts and will examine human immune responses to flu vaccination and infection.
- Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York City; Dr. Adolfo Garcia-Sastre. Researchers will conduct molecular studies to identify viral genes associated with pathogenicity and the adaptability of flu viruses in birds and mammals.
- University of Rochester, New York; Dr. John Treanor. Investigators will monitor communities in New York for seasonal flu infections and study the effectiveness of annual immunization programs, among other efforts. (See further information below.)
At the University of Minnesota, Pappaioanou said the center will collaborate with a number of other groups to test wild birds for flu viruses throughout the Central Flyway, with studies weighted toward the Upper Midwest. Partners in the effort include the University of Georgia in Athens, the Wildlife Conservation Society, the US National Wildlife Health Center in Madison (Wis.), the Minnesota Board of Animal Health, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, and Cargill Corp., she said.
Depending on results, the bird surveillance may lead to testing of pigs and possibly testing of people who work with pigs, Pappaioanou, an epidemiologist and veterinarian in the School of Public Health, told CIDRAP News. "If we find birds that are positive, we'll look at swine that are nearby. We'll be interviewing people who own those operations and their employees. If there are reports of human illness that could be flu, we'll be testing specimens from [the patients]."
In addition, the center will team up with Chulalongkorn University in Thailand, which has battled H5N1 outbreaks in recent years, for a human flu surveillance project in rural Thailand, Pappaioanou said. Researchers will be looking at risk factors for H5N1 exposure and also test people for antibodies indicating past exposure to the virus.
Pappaioanou said the center will receive NIAID funding of about $3 million a year under a contract that requires various "deliverables" along the way. The latter include things like detailed information on the viruses collected plus laboratory reagents and protocols developed. The data generated will be deposited in GenBank and other public databases.
"My role is largely going to be coordinating this, making sure things happen, providing scientific oversight, and making sure we deliver our deliverables to the NIH [National Institutes of Health]," she said.
At the University of Rochester, scientists are planning research to help in the development of a single vaccine that can work against many different flu strains, Treanor commented in a news release.
The Rochester center will study five topics in particular: (1) how white blood cells recognize qualities shared by many different flu strains, (2) the identity of viral proteins that turn on "helper" T cells, causing them to attack infected cells, (3) communication between immune cells, (4) the nature of changes in the viral protein hemagglutinin when flu viruses jump from birds to mammals, and (5) the qualities of viral polymerase, the enzyme the virus uses to copy its genetic material.
As part of the effort, "Researchers will follow college students, healthy adults, and 150 families with young children in the Rochester area for seven years, monitoring them for exposure to flu and responses to vaccination," the release states.
The Rochester contract is worth a total of $26 million, officials said. The university will collaborate with Cornell University, the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, and community partners.

London's financial sectorwas last night bracing itself for another official investigation into alleged price-fixing following reports that a US regulator is considering launching an inquiry into the City's gold and silver markets.
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission is discussing whether the daily setting of gold and silver prices in London is open to manipulation, according to the Wall Street Journal, which stated that the CFTC is examining whether prices are derived sufficiently transparently.
The system of setting gold prices in London is unusual and involves a twice-daily teleconference involving five banks – Barclays, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Bank of Nova Scotia and Société Générale – while silver is set by the latter three. The price fixings are then used to determine prices worldwide.
The fixing of the gold price in London dates back to September 1919, when the process involved NM Rothschild & Sons, Mocatta & Goldsmid, Samuel Montagu & Co, Pixley & Abell and Sharps & Wilkins.
At the start of each gold price-fixing, the chairman announces an opening price to the other four members who relay this price to their customers. Based on orders received from them, the banks declare themselves as buyers or sellers at that price.
Provided there are both buyers and sellers at that price, members are then asked to state the number of bars they wish to trade.
If at the opening price there are only buyers or only sellers, or if the numbers of bars to be bought or sold does not balance, the price is moved and the same procedure is followed until a balance is achieved. The silver fix dates back to 1897.

good idea for a map, looks really interesting
I GOT SERVED wrote:Firstly, it's spelled: "Galápagos"
Second, I really wanted to do a map of the Galapagos, but I suck a graphics .
A suggestion: maybe have some sort of a bonus for holding a certain number of islands? Like 2 islands= +1, 3 islands = +2, or something along those lines.
d.gishman wrote:Oh, I thought you were referring to the Galapagos giant tortoise, which inhabits all of the islands. marine turtles are everywhere, but giant tortoises are unique to the galapagos.
Phew!edbeard wrote:love it
kinda confused though...one example. How does Lugger Wolwin connect with the other part of the map? luggers can't all connect because then you'd border everyone at the start.
Yes the colours are supposed to blend in quite a bit.I love the look, but the colours blend in quite a bit. I mean it's the ocean/reef so it's supposed to but at the same time, I'd like it more if it didn't since this is a game afterall.
edbeard wrote:kinda confused though...one example. How does Lugger Wolwin connect with the other part of the map? luggers can't all connect because then you'd border everyone at the start.
edbeard wrote:For the colours, maybe make those territory borders a bit sharper. I think this would help a lot. In quite a few places I have trouble seeing them end.
I have a gameplay comment too.
So the best bonus to go for to start is probably the lugger.
I start with a reef and get that lugger. Next turn I get my regular 3 +2 for the lugger and +3 for the snorkel and lugger = +8
Reef five can do this with two kills T1 then Lugger.
Now, next turn I take those armies and go after someone else. I kill him. Chances of this happening in a six player game say...Well probably a lot higher than we want.
Now, I feel a bit bad because at the moment I'm not quite sure of a way to 'fix' this. I'll ponder it a bit but I'm sure you will consider this as well.
MrBenn wrote:Hmmm....
I haven't had a proper look at gameplay, so can't really comment on that at the moment, but I do like the look of this map - you seem to have an aesthetic eye!
Just a couple of things I noticed:
1. Reef 7 needs to have the same 'white' appearance as the other reefs.
2. The heads and legs of the Giant Tortoises are quite hard to see, which makes them look like blobs.
3. The territory off Espanola is labelled E3, but there is no E1 or E2...
That's it for now.
PS How do you make your maps look so good??

Probably this weekend Coleman, I have changed the tortoises and am wokring on the borders between the terts along with the reefs.Coleman wrote:When will we be seeing another version? I'm excited for this one.

Hi all,
I'm a graduate student at Portland State University, looking for experts in flash storage technology OR data-center applications to help me get expert-opinion data for a paper.
Specifically, I'm looking for those familiar with current flash storage technology (TLC/QLC/3DXP) OR current data center storage models (hot/warm/cold), and the metrics used to select SSDs for data center applications.
My ask is for experts that can do a series of maybe a dozen or so 1:1 comparisons where you would attribute 100 points between two alternatives (example would be pictured, but I dont want to hit a spam filter!)
For example, a flash expert would rate TLC against 3DXP in terms of UBER (uncorrectable bit error rate), while a data center applications expert would rate how important TBW (total bytes written) is in comparison to UBER for hot data applications.
While either expertise is needed, each of them will need to be familiar with common SSD rating metrics and concepts: TBW, UBER, retention, GB/s, IOps, latency, $/GB, and active/idle/sleep power modes.
If you'd can help, please email me at [email protected]
Thank you!

Founder and CEO Tobi Bauckhage talks to Screen about Moviepilot's recent Los Angeles move, and the company's future steps.
Community-driven media research company Moviepilot has recently opened an office in Los Angeles as it looks to both further develop its relations with major studios – currently, Moviepilot work with Fox, Universal and Paramount internationally, but only Paramount in the US – and expand its online community.
"Right now, we have 6m fans in the US – 4m on fan page and 2m more along different channel pages, like superheroes or legendary directors," explains Moviepilot founder and CEO Tobi Bauckhage. "At the end of the year, we plan to have 12m fans on FaceBbok in the US alone."
Formed in Germany in 2007, Moviepilot's aim was to create an algorithm-driven page to allow film fans to find the right movie, in turn boosting the first box office weekend results for the films in question.
An economist by trade, Bauckhage was fascinated by what he calls the "anomaly of the market of entertainment where there has to be the perfect match between the supply – which is the movie – and the demand – which is the audience".
"That predetermines – moreso than ten years ago – how much money you're going to make off the whole lifespan of the movie. I don't know any other market which is so brutal."
The site grew to 2.5m unique users a month in Germany, covering the whole entertainment market including television and DVD. Looking for ways to expand the technology into other territories, Bauckhage spotted an opportunity with the launch of Facebook Connect last year.
"Suddenly, this became an invitation. We understood we could get access to Like data and movie-based profiles via Facebook, and it was also a great way to enter a new market as a traffic generator," Bauckhage recalls.
Having grown their fanbase on their US Facebook page to over 4m, moviepilot.com was launched in November last year and has since grown to 1.8m unique visitors a month, almost the size of Germany, with one significant change in the approach of the site.
"We understood that finding the right film for the right fan, wasn't solving such a big problem to be honest, but the technology could be applied the other way around, which is finding the right fan for any film. So we started to concentrate on upcoming movies only and the idea and the mission for the US site is to create a fan hub for upcoming movies, for people who are what we call 'first weekenders' – people who buy tickets on the first weekend."
By driving fans via Facebook, Moviepilot is able to analyse the data of people who are excited about upcoming films in a non-personal way to not just define a film's built-in audience, but also to find new audiences a film can cross over to in order for distributors to expand their marketing.
"That was very powerful when we saw that and I think nobody has that kind of data right now. The business model that evolves out of this was that we actually said we're building this fan hub for first weekenders, then we use the data that they generate to use social media more efficiently and effectively to expand the target audience group."
With a mission to "bring big data to Hollywood", Moviepilot seeks to show how the industry can use this data and make it actionable. "Our hunch is we really have something that can potentially change this industry and put audience building on more solid data ground," says Bauckhage. "The problem is that our offering is not very easy to box: we're not a media agency, we're not a publishing site, we're not a research company, we're kind of everything.
"It needs explaining, so that's why I moved over here to LA to talk to the studios. The second bit is to educate the studios and show them how powerful and potentially meaningful this data is for their daily work."
Alongside expanding the range of movies covered on the site – "there is a tendency towards mainstream [but] it's a completely personal site; if you are an international arthouse movie goer, it'll look differently for you" – Bauckhage is clear on the next steps for Moviepilot.
"Facebook as a traffic generating channel for moviegoers around the world works for other countries as well, so that's another dimension we will start next year: to go for other languages and start the same thing in other markets as well."

The New Aesthetic viral manifesto articulates the digital impetus in the shaping of the world, writes Rory Olcayto
The New Aesthetic is a term coined by Londoner James Bridle for a Tumblr blog he started lasted May collating images that chart 'the network's irruption into physical space'. That means surveillance camera footage, QR codes, low-res mobile video, and pixelated building facades. Anything, in fact, that looks like the space where virtual space and reality overlap. Here are some more things that are very New Aesthetic (or perhaps Smart Nouveau?): fabrics with 8 bit-style sprites printed or woven into them; oil paintings based on satellite map shots; a Hawk-Eye replay at Wimbledon.
Bridle is a designer with Silicon Roundabout firm The Really Interesting Group (RIG), which focuses on 'the digital and the analogue interact - particularly the way digital stuff can be transformed into objects'. The RIG guys are smart. They fuse high and low-brow ideas with humour and style. One of their products is The Big Red Button, a shiny round plastic red button, which, if pressed, triggers the pressing of a spacebar on a nearby laptop. 'Very useful for presentations and other digital shenanigans. On sale now!' says RIG. It looks like a mushroom from 80s arcade classic Centipede.
Bridle's blog, a manifesto of sorts, has struck a chord. Serious figures in digital design have twigged Bridle is on to something. To some, his modest website and the nascent culture it reports on and fosters is the first important visual arts movement of the 21st Century.
Architects, mired in a post-iconic depression, have yet to engage with the New Aesthetic, bar an excellent essay by FAT's Sam Jacob. In a column for AA free sheet Commonplace, Jacob urges the movement to embrace the very nostalgia it has been accused of succumbing to. (Fairly in my view: the focus on pixels does suggest a certain Shoreditch-influenced retro-chic). But Jacob's suggestion is a good one: 'Real newness,' he says, 'might emerge out of radical nostalgia at the uncomfortable intersection of technology and history.'
Jacob's essay is a response to Bruce Sterling's An Essay on the New Aesthetic, published in April, a snarky, brain-tickling endorsement of Bridle's idea, which rudely highlights its weak points. Here's Stirling on the New Aesthetic's fondness for retro 80s graphics: 'Sentimental fluff for modern adults who grew up in front of 1980s game-console machines. Eight-bit graphics are pretty easy to carve out of styrofoam.
There's a low barrier to entry in making sculpture from 8-bit, so that you can "rupture the interface between the digital and the physical". However, 8-bit sculptures are a cute, backward-looking rupture.' And here he is saying something nice: 'The New Aesthetic is "collectively intelligent." It's diffuse, crowd-sourcey, and made of many small pieces loosely joined. It's open-sourced, and triumph-of-amateurs. It's like its logo, a bright cluster of balloons tied to some huge, dark and lethal weight.'
So others are giving new meaning to Bridle's concept, which is how a network-inspired 'manifesto' should be. Architects, too, have a role to play. In fact, Bridle says the idea came to him while contemplating the pixelated facades of YRM's Telehouse West data centre in East London. To Bridle, the bulky aluminium clad box is '…the skin of the network. This is what the network looks like, as made physical in the world. And there's something incredibly powerful in that. There's something that we haven't yet figured out and we're still playing with.' Buffalo's grain elevators, 'the first fruits of the new age', according to Corb, had the same effect on Modernists. But that was a hundred years ago. The New Aesthetic is your reminder that it's time to move on.

Sean Bell Suspect Books Prison Term?
Two detectives with the New York City Police Department were formerly indicted on manslaughter charges in the November 25 killing of Sean Bell, the unarmed African American who was to be married later that day. A third detective was charged with reckless endangerment.
Two of Bell's friends, Trent Benefield, 23 and Joseph Guzman, 31, who were also in the car were both seriously wounded.
Charged with manslaughter were suspect Michael Oliver, who fired 31 shots and suspect Gescard Isnora, who shot 11 times; they face 25 years behind bars. Suspect Marc Cooper, who fired four shots, faces a year behind bars. There were a total of five officers who fired a combined 50 shots; two were not charged. All were suspended after the killing—Bell had just emerged from a nightclub celebrating his last day as a bachelor.
Suspect Oliver, who may have booked his ticket to prison, was photographed last Friday on the day he learned he had been indicted, emerging from a restaurant club where he consumed wine, ringing up a tab with friends in excess of $4,000.
Shortly after the November 25 killing, Assistant Police Chief Michael Collins told The Black Star News that the first detective to discharge his gun, (Isnora as it was subsequently revealed) had been drinking before the shooting; Chief Collins later attempted to retract.
Richard Brown, Queens County District Attorney announced the formal charges today—the Grand Jury vote returned Friday. The suspects were arrested today.
"This is only the beginning of this case," DA Brown said. "This case has got to be tried in an open courtroom and all of the facts and all of the law will be available to all of you as you watch this trial proceed."Â
"Nothing anyone can do will bring back Sean Bell. But we can resolve to learn what lessons we can from this tragedy," Mayor Michael Bloomberg said today.
National Action Network President Rev. Al Sharpton said: "These were officers of the law, operating under the cover of the law, and had the ability beyond what a normal citizen would have, and they in our judgment and clearly as certified by this grand jury, used that privilege to engage in criminal activity.�
