The Miami Hurricanes might have won a share of the Coastal Division title on the field, but that didn't mean voters felt like they deserved much representation on the All-ACC Team.

Even before everybody had a digital camera, it was a universal modern skill to take photographs. But more than that, for a long time it's been a universal skill to be photographed. For several decades now, everybody has known how to put on his or her game face and wait for the click. Dutch photographer Rineke Dijkstra has become famous by taking that as her point of departure, then wondering what happens when we can't hold the pose. The answer: a moment of truth. One thing you learn at the new Dijkstra retrospective, currently at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and moving in June to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City, is that no matter how much you try to put on the social mask, it keeps slipping.
After graduating from an Amsterdam art school in 1986, Dijkstra, who is 52, made a living for a while shooting portraits for a Dutch business magazine. It was frustrating work, taking pictures of executives who knew all too well how to keep up their guard. Eventually, she returned to more personal picture-taking. Very quickly, Dijkstra found an international audience. For her breakthrough project in the early '90s, she persuaded teenagers at beaches in the U.S. and Europe to pose against a bare backdrop of sky, sea and shore. The fascination of those pictures comes partly from the mind's attempt to reconcile the "timeless" setting with the sometimes awkward, and often futile, attempts by the teens to assume the attitudes of glamor and cool they think the camera requires.
Hoping to catch people with their defenses down, Dijkstra started to photograph them in the aftermath of some exhausting event. She got women to pose soon after giving birth, usually standing naked while they cradled their newborns. By 1994 she was also making portraits of Portuguese forcados—amateur bullfighters who enter the ring in unarmed groups to subdue the bulls bare-handed. She photographed them right after they returned from the fight, bloody, scuffed and dented.
To watch someone evolve from youth into adult awareness, Dijkstra has sometimes followed a single subject for years—a French boy who joins the foreign legion, a Bosnian refugee girl as she grows up in the Netherlands—as his or her life goes through changes. Or, as she did with the kids on beaches, she will go to parks and photograph very contemporary people in a setting that pulls them out of time—but only so far. And to make sure her pictures don't take on a false timelessness, Dijkstra makes sure each one carries in its title the very real location in which it was taken and the date.
Rineke Dijkstra: A Retrospective is on display from Feb. 18 through May 28 at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and will open at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City on June 29.

Janitors Protest: A Rally Against Economic Injustice or A Public Nuisance?
Last Thursday, hundreds of activists staged a protest in Century City outside of the JP Morgan Chase-owned Century Plaza building in support of 16 janitors who were laid off in a company cost-cutting move. The Service Employees International Union organized the demonstration, including a hunger strike – part of a series of actions that ended on Friday. Thirteen protesters were arrested after they sat down in the middle of a street intersection in an act of civil disobedience.
These protests were just the latest expression of outrage among the working classes across the country, who have suffered massive job losses and wage stagnation, while failing bank behemoths who wrecked the economy got bailed out to the tune of billions of dollars. The day of the janitors action, I wondered how much local news coverage it would get – if any at all. The protest did get the media's attention, probably more so because of what it did (caused traffic jams), rather than what it represented (economic inequality and distress).
All five major local news stations – CBS2/KCAL9, NBC4, ABC7, FOX11 and KTLA – had stories about the protest. Most had videos on their web sites, along with a print version. NBC4 was the only site without video, but you can read its account here. What was fascinating was the different tone each newscast took, what they chose to focus on and whom they chose to interview.
KTLA's coverage was by far the absolute worst in terms of corporate bias and tone. The narrative was just downright snarky. The station, which is owned by the struggling Tribune Co. (parent of the Los Angeles Times), broadcast two reports – one during the actual protest, and a longer report later on. Most of the focus was on how motorists were inconvenienced, and less on the grievances of the protesters. It's as if the producers were more concerned about wealthy entertainment and banking executives who work at Century Plaza being aggravated, rather than whether the janitors were getting a raw deal. Watch the broadcasts below:Vodpod videos no longer available.
FOX 11 was more sympathetic to the janitors, choosing to focus on a woman who participated in the hunger strike. But inexplicably, the focus then turned to an interview with TV sports commentator and former basketball star, John Salley. Salley just happened to be in the area, but what does the point of view of an athletic personality add to the story?
ABC7 and CBS2/KCAL9 did the best in terms of fairness and tone. Each station interviewed more of the protesters, in addition to obtaining statements in response from the janitorial firm. It was good to see that both broadcasts allowed the participants to clearly get their messages across, and that both noted the rally was peaceful. Interestingly, though, ABC7 chose to talk to the police, whereas CBS2/KCAL9 did not. CBS2 doesn't allow for video embeds on blogs, so you can watch the video by clicking here. The ABC7 video is below:
It was great to see a workers protest covered in the news and across multiple outlets. Labor news gets short shrift in the mainstream press nowadays. But I wonder: Would the media have showed up at all if no one was blocking the streets?

Grey Water
The use of grey water is considered a contribution to environmental protection as rainwater or only slightly soiled water is utilized and not merely drained off. Often, however, grey water, which is used for toilet flushing, car washing and irrigation, can be aggressive and therefore places high demands on the resistance and durability of the piping systems.

Call him the Six Billion Dollar Man. Because that's how much money NRA chief Wayne LaPierre's nutty plan to put an armed guard in every school in America may cost on an annual basis. And how did the country responds to LaPierre's proposal? With a heart laugh. Even Republicans are staying away:
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, a conservative from Utah, said on NBC he was worried about arming educators since he "had science teachers in high school who can't negotiate a Bunsen burner for goodness sake."
It's rather extraordinary how quickly the NRA's star has faded. The organization used to be looked at as invincible, and the gun control issue overall, untouchable.
Now, not so much.
It's hard to know what was more disastrous: NRA executive vp Wayne LaPierre's disastrous press conference this past Friday morning, in which he suggested that the answer to people with guns mowing down children was to put a whole lot more guns near children, or LaPierre's Sunday morning appearance on Meet the Press in which numerous commentators noticed that LaPierre was quite literally "foaming at the mouth."
First, the reaction to Friday's press conference was swift and vicious. New York's two quasi-tabloids, including one that tends to veer right, perhaps said it best:
A vicious piece in the Daily News by Mike Lupica:
So now Wayne LaPierre of the National Rifle Association, who attacks the mental health system in this country even as he sounds like he needs to be in it, goes on "Meet the Press" and continues to double down on his notion that the only way to keep our schools safe is to put armed guards at the front door and the side door and in every home room in America and maybe on every school bus, too.
LaPierre is the type who lies to stay in practice, as he continues to pass himself off as the front man for responsible gun owners when he actually is a front for their lunatic fringe. To say that the NRA represents mainstream thinking for gun owners is the same as saying that the Tea Party represents mainstream thinking in the Republican Party.
Then there was the rabies episode on Meet the Press:
Adding to the crazy was NRA head Wayne LaPierre suggesting that most of the American media travels around with bodyguards. Which came as a surprise to most of the American media that has never traveled around with a bodyguard. From Erik Wemple at the Washington Post, who presumably does not have a body guard:
A suitable expert regarding media expenditures on armed protection is Martin Baron. He's the outgoing top editor of the Boston Globe, the incoming top editor of The Washington Post and the former executive editor of the Miami Herald, among other editing jobs. So what about this armed-protection thing? Writes Baron via e-mail: "Never once heard of this, never authorized it, never paid for it and don't for a second believe it. The only exception I can recall is, at times, for some security in Afghanistan and Iraq."
More such sentiment comes from a CBS News source: "I can tell you definitively that the bureau and the CBS Broadcast Center guards are NOT armed. (Trust me, you wouldn't want guns in the hands of some of those folks!) … I can't speak for the correspondents who travel in dangerous areas internationally, but my guess is even they aren't accompanied by armed guards."
Apparently, the NYT doesn't have armed guards, even in Kabul.
But, as always, the mass-murder of innocent Americans is always a boon for our country's fetish with violence: ammo sales are through the roof, lest some sane politician decide that the presence of nearly 300 million guns in America, when that's a little less than our entire population, might just suffice.
At a Denver gun show this weekend, ammunition for the AR-15 semiautomatic rifle — the style of weapon used in the Newtown attack — sold out within an hour.
"We're worried we're not going to be able our guns for our safety and we're not doing anything wrong," said one attendee, Crystalin Benedetto.
Yeah, you lost the right to cry about your "safety" when one of your fellow gun nuts decided to mow down 20 children a week before Christmas. Your safety is killing us.

I love a good big man. That works in both a gay disco and a basketball court, which is basically on par for the amount of sweaty men grunting in close proximity to each other. As we continue our 2012-2013 fantasy basketball rankings, I am happy to hit the tallest of the tall. I grew up watching the New York Knicks of the early 90s, a team built around the towering frame of Patrick Ewing. That era was a great time for dominating centers, from the hated (to me) Hakeem Olajuwon to the smooth David Robinson to everyone's beloved Shaq Attack. It's been written that if you forget the past you are doomed to repeat it, but even though we didn't forget that period, we are getting a new generation of centers emerging in the paint, so that was probably a poor reference but it's already written and we need to move on. You don't necessarily need a center in the first round, but because the position is deep, you want to make sure you have a top quality center. I wouldn't leave the first three rounds without one.
1. Dwight Howard – See top 10 for 2012 fantasy basketball for Dwight Howard's projections.
2. Al Jefferson – See top 10 for 2012 fantasy basketball for Al Jefferson's projections.
3. DeMarcus Cousins – See top 20 for 2012 fantasy basketball for DeMarcus Cousins' projections.
4. Andrew Bynum – See top 20 for 2012 fantasy basketball for Andrew Bynum's projections. This ends our first tier, which I call "Any one of these guys can and will finish as the top overall center."
5. Al Horford – See top 20 for 2012 fantasy basketball for Al Horford's projections. This begins a new tier. This goes from here until Greg Monroe. I call this tier "I want these guys on my team."
6. Marc Gasol – See top 20 for 2012 fantasy basketball for Marc Gasol's projections.
7. Greg Monroe – Monroe is the first center that didn't make my top twenty, but I wouldn't sweat that. People get a little too hung up on rounds. What's the difference between a 19th pick or a 21st pick? Part of having a good draft is flexibility. If everyone in your league starts pouncing on a certain position, you may have to grab that earlier than you wanted, even if the guy you take is ranked lower "overall" than some other dudes in other positions. That's life. Speaking of life, Monroe is living the good kind. His numbers are trending handsomely upward, and it looks like that should continue, both in terms of minutes and production. Projections: .535 fg/.742 ft/0.0 3pt/16.7 pts/11.2 rbd/2.1 ast/1.2 stl/0.9 blk/3.1 tov
8. Brook Lopez – I wouldn't say Lopez is overlooked, but he has been on the Nets, and who really notices them? Anyway, Lopez starts the new tier, dubbed "Last call for attractive centers." It runs to Kevin Garnett. So, Lopez, what do we like about him? He averaged the second most PPG among centers behind Dwight Howard. He doesn't rebound as much as he should, but his assists and blocks are respectable. He will have more scorers on his team this season, which could hurt his overall points and which would therefore hurt his overall value. Projections: .491 fg/.779 ft/0.0 3pt/19.4 pts/7.1 rbd/1.8 ast/0.5 stl/1.6 blk/2.1 tov
9. Roy Hibbert – Some people rank Dr. Hibbert higher, and I can't blame them. He offers generous rebounds, assists and blocks, although he isn't much of a scorer. If he plays 35 minutes per game, we might see him average PPG creep up above 15.0, which would make him very attractive. I'm not sure how likely that is, but I am optimistic he can build off of his career highs in blocks and rebounds. Projections: .499 fg/.748 ft/0.0 3pt/13.2 pts/9.3 rbd/2.1 ast/0.4 stl/2.1 blk/2.5 tov
10. Marcin Gortat – Here's the deal with Gortat. If last year was a sign of things to come, Gortat is going to finish ranked around 7th. If last year was his peak, then he fits in around here, maybe even lower. Well, not too much lower, considering what falls after him. If he actually is available as the 10th overall center, I have no problem grabbing him, and not in the sexual way. Projections: .565 fg/.680 ft/0.0 3pt/14.9 pts/9.6 rbd/1.1 ast/0.6 stl/1.4 blk/1.7 tov
11. Kevin Garnett – He's listed on ESPN, Yahoo! and CBS as a center, so I don't care where he actually plays, he's a center for our purposes. This will be Garnett's 18th season, which means it is now legal to have sex with his career. You know exactly what you're getting with him. Dependable, but not exciting. Projections: .498 fg/.861 ft/0.0 3pt/14.8 pts/7.9 rbd/2.7 ast/0.8 stl/0.9 blk/3.2 tov
12. Joakim Noah – This tier goes from Noah to Bogut. It's called "Ankles." Noah suffered an ankle injury during the Bulls devastating playoff disaster and missed the Olympics because of it. He'll probably be fine, but he was also disappointing last season, too. Like the Riddler, he's covered in question marks, but he can still carry an episode of Batman. Projections: .520 fg/.749 ft/0.0 3pt/11.0 pts/10.8 rbd/2.2 ast/0.7 stl/1.5 blk/2.0 tov
13. Andrew Bogut – I could have swapped Noah with Bogut. Bogut has better counting stats but worse ratios. Bogut also is recovering from ankle problems. If you are in a friendly office league, someone may accidentally draft Andrew Bogut thinking it is Andrew Bynum. Okay, probably not. Projections: .475 fg/.613 ft/0.0 3pt/12.3 pts/10.2 rbd/2.3 ast/0.8 stl/2.2 blk/2.2 tov
14. Tyson Chandler – This tier is named "Beards" and includes Chandler and Chris Kaman. It's called "Beards" because they both have beards, and also because beards mask some fact – that you're gay (wife = beard), that you have a double chin (beard = mask), that your center position isn't as great as you'd like (beard = basketball player). I wouldn't be sad if I wound up with Chandler. He has a ridiculously high FG% with decent rebounds and blocks, but he's not overwhelming and you never know what the hell the Knicks are doing with starting rosters. The Knicks have reclaimed Marcus Camby, but the most he can do is steal minutes from Chandler, which could hurt Chandler's overall counting stats, which weren't that impressive to begin with. Projections: .670 fg/.725 ft/0.0 3pt/13.0 pts/10.2 rbd/0.9 ast/0.7 stl/1.5 blk/1.6 tov
15. Chris Kaman – With the starting job, Kaman has the ability to put up some of the best numbers of his career, but while that may boost his PPG, I wonder if he will be able to crack 10 boards per game. If he could produce 16/12, he could sniff the top ten. Why, he may be worthy of sleeper status, or he may just put you to sleep. Projections: .470 fg/.753 ft/0.0 3pt/14.1 pts/7.5 rbd/1.9 ast/0.5 stl/1.5 blk/2.9 tov
16. Anderson Varejao – This is our second to last tier. This tier is called "Every team is contractually required to have a center." Varejao is, you know, a big guy that can score a few points, rebound, maybe block a little here and there. Like all good centers, he can't score free throws, but I can overlook that. He's never started more than 42 games, he is prone to injury, and he has an ugly jheri curl. Projections: .530 fg/.667 ft/0.0 3pt/10.2 pts/11.8 rbd/1.6 ast/1.2 stl/1.0 blk/2.0 tov
17. Nikola Pekovic – He has a starting gig and has good ratios. He don't offer inspiring counting stats, but if he gives you 14.5/8.4 like I'm projecting, that's actually pretty good considering where he is ranked. He will probably bounce around the waiver wire like Dick Grayson's parents. Projections: .570 fg/.753 ft/0.0 3pt/14.5 pts/8.4 rbd/0.8 ast/0.7 stl/1.0 blk/2.3 tov
18. JaVale McGee – He's a great source for blocks, and if he could average double-doubles, he is not a bad pick in the last couple of rounds. He can't score free throws and he doesn't offer much in terms of ancillary stats. This is probably a make or break season for him. If he does poorly, is he at risk to lose the starting job? This is a deep position, who has time to waste on a guy wasting his talent? Projections: .544 fg/.512 ft/0.0 3pt/11.4 pts/8.2 rbd/0.5 ast/0.5 stl/2.2 blk/1.9 tov
19. DeAndre Jordan – There is a lot of upside here, by which I mean you can always tell people you had Jordan on your fantasy team. I wanna be like Mike! DeAndre is not like Mike. Not even baseball Michael Jordan. You can pretty much copy and paste what I typed for McGee, or just lift your eyeballs half an inch. Projections: 648 fg/.538 ft/0.0 3pt/7.9 pts/9.0 rbd/0.4 ast/0.4 stl/2.3 blk/1.3 tov
20. Omer Asik – If you are in your final round and looking to grab someone with potential upside, Asik is your man. He has a starting gig in Houston and has the ability to deliver filling amounts of rebounds and blocks. As your last pick, you could do much worse.

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS / AP) — Gov. Jerry Brown and Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom voted Tuesday against giving the new chancellor of the University of California, Berkeley a $50,000 pay raise over what his predecessor earns, saying salary increases for public officials are inappropriate given the state's bleak financial condition.
The two politicians said during a meeting of the University of California's governing board that they fully supported the selection of Columbia University Dean Nicholas Dirks as Berkeley's 10th chancellor, and they joined the rest of the board in approving his appointment.
KCBS' Doug Sovern Reports:
But both said they could not endorse his $486,800 base salary even though the bump in pay is expected to be covered through private donations. It passed without their backing with an 11-3 vote.
"I believe a $50,000 increase from the incumbent—even though the incumbent did not get a pay increase for several years—does not fit within the spirit of servant leadership that I think will be required over the next several years," Brown said. "We can all agree this issue is much bigger than anyone's salary, but I want to put my marker down."

The governor added that he made a commitment to voters who approved Proposition 30, which raises the statewide sales tax and boosts income taxes on the wealthy, that he would spend the state's money wisely. The University of California as a whole needs to be restructured as part of that process, he said.
Dirks, Columbia's executive vice president and dean of the faculty for arts and sciences, is set to replace outgoing Berkeley chancellor Robert Birgeneau on June 1. Birgeneau's base salary is $436,800.
One other regent, Charlene Zettel, an appointee of former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, joined Brown and Newsom in voting for the appointment of Dirks but against his compensation package, which also includes an annual car allowance of $8,916 and a house on the Berkeley campus.
Several of the 11 regents who endorsed Dirks' salary noted that the pay raise would be funded by private donations to UC Berkeley's foundation, and that even with the $50,000 increase, Dirks would be making less than his counterparts at most other major public universities.
"On this particular compensation, I would just point out that we are dealing with the No. 1 public university in the world," Regent George Kieffer said. "The compensation for this chancellor is below that of all the major universities in the country it competes with and many of the universities it does not compete with."
Meeting by teleconference, the regents also approved the appointment of Jane Close Conoley, dean of the UC Santa Barbara Gevirtz Graduate School of Education, as acting chancellor of UC Riverside.
Board members, including Brown and Newsom, unanimously approved paying Conoley $245,600.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — The Chinese government just took some of the wind out of the sails of the highly anticipated initial public offering of Alibaba, one of its most anticipated IPOs, but whether it is as big an impact as some investors fear is yet to be determined.
On Friday, the Chinese government said it would temporarily suspend two types of smartphone payments for online transactions in China: the use of QR codes and virtual credit card systems. An official at the People's Bank of China told a state government owned newspaper that the bank was studying the potential for security risks with both of those systems.
Investors immediately started to debate the impact on Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba and its payment system, Alipay, and the impact on Yahoo Inc.
in the U.S., a big Alibaba investor. It is worth noting that Alibaba uses Alipay, the Chinese clone of PayPal, much as eBay uses PayPal — as an integral part of its e-commerce platform. But one difference is that Alipay is a separate company and its financials will not be part of the Alibaba IPO. Still, Alipay did recently overtake eBay Inc.'s
Yahoo owns a big stake in Alibaba, which is expected to go public later this year in one of the most anticipated public offerings in tech. Last month, after the company reported better-than-expected revenue, analysts estimated that Alibaba's valuation could go as high as $153 billion.
Investors in the U.S. are closely watching the Alibaba IPO because of the Yahoo connection. Yahoo in fact currently trades on the expectations that the sale about 40% of its current stake in Alibaba will bring a big windfall to its balance sheet.
The Chinese government may have doused some of the future potential for more online transaction growth, both Alipay and rival Ten Cent had announced this week that they would launch virtual credit cards. Alipay said that it planned to issue one million virtual credit cards, in conjunction with partner China CITIC Bank. Those plans are now obviously on hold, while the studies of potential risks are in the works.
It is not clear how much of Alibaba's current revenue stream comes from the use of QR codes, which will be halted until further notice. While QR codes, which can be used for face-to-face transactions via your smartphone, have not taken off in the U.S., they are far more popular in China. According to former Wall Street analyst Mary Meeker, now with the venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield Byers, QR codes have become very popular in China for buying things.
Last May, Meeker said about 9 million QR codes were being scanned per month in China, a huge jump from 2012 data that showed about 2 million QR codes a month. That number is probably even higher this year.
Shares of Yahoo tumbled Friday morning after the opening bell, but they had recovered, and were off 13 cents to $37.10, as investors tried to gauge the impact of the news. It is still not clear what it all means for Yahoo investors, but some wind is gone from the Alibaba IPO, it's just not clear yet how much.

One of the things that I love about having the grandsons living with me is hearing them play video games (usually at 3am). They use false voices and get VERY animated and act like normal five year olds.
The fact that they are actually 19 and 24 does not change a thing.
Beside doing the 'voices' at 3am, while playing video games, they also tend to do them on the car, on the way home from movies. Last night, it was Deathly Hallows, Part II.
Let me say first, that there may be a SPOILER or twenty here, if you have not seen the movie. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
I knew, within the first 3 minutes, of Deathly Hallows II starting, that this was going to be the best movie yet. I actually cannot wait till it comes out on DVD so I can watch it again, and again. I am not going to go into all the great things I liked about the movie because they far outway the maybe two complaints I had. My 'children' however, nit picked all the way home and I wish I would have taken notes. Because they had me in stitches all the way home too.
I think it started off with, "Why didn't anyone act surprised when Hagrid dropped the dead Harry?" I had not actually noticed this but I tend to view things through rose colored glasses and Harry Potter is one of those things. Then, the boys go off using voices to pretend to be the different characters:
"What the f__k!" Voldemort said in surprise. "How many times do I have to kill you?"
"Opps!" Hagrid said. "It wasn't me. I didn't drop Harry."
"Great, one more wand for the fight." said someone on Harry's side.
I then pointed out that Voldemort's comment sounded a lot like Jeff Dunham and that led to a conversation of which puppet would be Voldemort.
Unfortunately, I cannot remember all the other spots that bothered them. I do know that one thing that has always bothered me is how stupid Harry is to always lay his wand down. He did it again, as soon as Voldemort left the room from killing Snape. We have all decided that Harry needs to have a wrist strap on his wand. In fact, I think they should be mandatory on all wands, as wands were flying in the air during the battle and the boys had quite a discussion about the perils of wands flying in the air during a battle and poking out eyes, etc.
Picture Mrs. Weasley and Bellatrix doing battle and then realizing they had picked up each others wands from the floor by mistake, and had to truce for one minute in order to trade their wands back. That's sort-of our conversation in the car going home. Just in funny voices.
Sorry, can't give credit for this photo as it came up on Bing and, I really hate Bing, there was no credit to where Bing got it.
Everyone loved Bellatrix skipping along at Voldemorts side. She always takes life so seriously! While Helena Bonham Carter played the part great, as she always does, when she was Hermoine polyjuiced into Bellatrix, I wish they would have done just another few minutes of it, you know, Hermoine trying to act like Jack Sparrow. There again, Jeff Dunham could have done a great job.
We also decided that Neville was perhaps not as bright as could be when he waited at the wrong end of the bridge they were going to blow up. You never wait on the end that is going to blow up. I would also advise him not to taunt bad guys.
NO ONE liked the "19 years later segment." In fact, the audience laughed at each "aged" face. Seriously, it was lame and they should have left it off. There ensued a discussion as to the fact that Gaffer has heard that Rawling did not even write that postscript. I am pretty sure this is some on-line urban legend, since it is in her book and not credited to anyone else.
All in all, I want to go back tonight. It was an awesomely, awesome movie. The Best!

Behind the wheel - 2014 Subaru Forester
The Subaru Forester, well known as a durable and eminently functional compact sport utility vehicle, adds more power, more room, more safety features and a retuned suspension for 2014.
The new, fourth-generation Forester also has higher fuel economy ratings than its predecessor -- 24 miles per gallon in city driving and 32 mpg on the highway with base, 170-horsepower, four-cylinder engine and fuel-efficient continuously variable transmission (CVT).
As a result, the 2014 Forester ranks as fifth best SUV nameplate in fuel economy in the United States among gasoline-only-powered SUVs, according to the federal government.
Better yet, the new Forester is rated best small SUV by Consumer Reports, where predicted reliability is above average.
Styling is new, too, though casual observers may not notice the Forester's freshened exterior and the fact the turbo scoop is gone from the hoods of turbocharged models that now have 250 horsepower, up from 224.
But they will notice the commodious 41.7 inches of legroom that's now in the Forester's back seat. This is more legroom than is found in the front seats of the big Cadillac Escalade SUV. Front seats in the new Forester aren't shortchanged. They provide a generous 43 inches of legroom plus at least 40 inches of headroom, even when there's a sunroof overhead.
The space inside the Forester, including a 10 percent boost in maximum cargo room for 2014, is surprising for a 15-foot-long vehicle that has grown lengthwise less than 1.5 inches from its predecessor.
Base retail price for the new Forester is up slightly from the 2013 Forester's $22,090 for a manual transmission model. Specifically, a base, 2014 Forester with five-speed manual and basically the same 2.5-liter, horizontally opposed four cylinder that was in last year's model has a starting manufacturer's suggested retail price, including destination charge, of $22,820. The lowest starting retail price, including destination charge, for a 2014 Forester with CVT, which a driver operates like an automatic, is $23,820.
All Foresters come standard with all-wheel drive. No automatic transmission is offered in 2014 models.
Even with the price increase, the 2014 Forester's starting prices are lower than those of the 2013 Honda CR-V. The CR-V's starting retail price, including destination charge, is $23,695 for a front-wheel drive model with 185-horsepower, four-cylinder engine and five-speed automatic transmission. The lowest priced 2013 CR-V with all-wheel drive is $24,875.
But the 2013 Kia Sportage SUV starts lower, at $19,850 with 176-horsepower, four cylinder, manual transmission and front-wheel drive. The lowest starting retail price for a 2013 Sportage with automatic is $22,050, while the starting MSRP, including destination charge, for an all-wheel drive Sportage is $23,550. Note that unlike the Forester, the all-wheel drive Sportage only comes with automatic.
Neither the CR-V nor Sportage offers a CVT.
With more than a dozen years on the U.S. market, the Forester is a trailblazer in blending a car-like ride with sport utility looks, ride height that's higher than that of regular cars and all-road capability.
But where other so-called crossover SUVs have become larger and added third-row seats, the 2014 Forester with new underlying platform keeps its not-too-big, well-proportioned shape and seats for five.
Increased interior room, such as maximum cargo room that's now 74.7 cubic feet with rear seats folded compared with 68.3 cubic feet in the 2013 Forester, comes from paying attention to the details.
As an example, a flatter cargo floor helped add cargo space, while revised hip points on the seats contribute to greater legroom, and the middle passenger in the rear has a more comfortable resting spot as the center tunnel in the floor is lower now.
The test 2014 Forester, a 2.0XT Premium model with CVT, demanded little effort for the driver to get acclimated. Entry, as well as exit, was very easy as door openings are sizable and door sills have been repositioned 2 inches lower.
Sizable side windows and metal pillars at the sides of the windshield that are pushed forward a bit compared with last year's Forester provided good views out.
With the instrument panel positioned a bit farther away from front-seat passengers than in last year's Forester, interior controls are mostly straightforward. Plastic on the dashboard in the tester was acceptable, though there was little flair or style.
Meantime, a rearview camera, which is standard on all CR-Vs, isn't available on the base 2014 Forester.
But a driver's knee air bag and anti-whiplash front seats are new standard safety items on the 2014 Forester.
The Forester remains a nimble handler, with suspension now providing a bit firmer ride.
The base, 2.5-liter, double overhead cam, naturally aspirated, four-cylinder engine is the typical Subaru "boxer" design where pistons are arranged horizontally. Peak torque is 174 foot-pounds at 4,100 rpm, which is a bit better than the 168 foot-pounds at 4,000 rpm in Kia's 2013 Sportage.
But the Forester's 2-liter, horizontally opposed four cylinder that's turbocharged and direct injected is the big news. This engine, mated to the CVT in the tester, had some turbo lag. But once the power came on, the car moved sprightly and a bit loudly. Paddle shifters let drivers get all the power they could. Peak torque of 258 foot-pounds comes on as soon as 2,000 rpm and continues to 4,800 rpm.
To get peak performance, Subaru recommends premium gasoline.
Alas, fuel mileage averaged just over 20 mpg in admittedly aggressive driving.
Last month, some 2014 Foresters were recalled because floor mats might begin to curl when they are subjected to heat. The curling might interfere with driver use of pedals, so dealers were installing four new floor mats in the affected vehicles.

SSHing directly to a compute node at OSC - even if that node has been assigned to you in a current batch job - and starting VNC is an "unsafe" thing to do. When your batch job ends (and the node is assigned to other users), stray processes will be left behind and negatively impact other users. However, it is possible to use VNC on compute nodes safely.
The examples below are for Oakley. If you use other systems, please see this page for supported versions of TurboVNC on our systems.
Starting your VNC server
Step one is to create your VNC server inside a batch job.
Option 1: Interactive
The preferred method is to start an interactive job, requesting an entire node, and then once your job starts, you can start the VNC server.
qsub -I -l nodes=1:ppn=12:gpus=2:vis
This command requests an entire GPU node, and tells the batch system you wish to use the GPUs for visualization. This will ensure that the X11 server can access the GPU for acceleration. In this example, I have not specified a duration, which will then default to 1 hour.
module load virtualgl module load turbovnc
Then start your VNC server. (The first time you run this command, it may ask you for a password - this is to secure your VNC session from unauthorized connections. Set it to whatever password you desire. We recommend a strong password.)
The output of this command is important: it tells you where to point your client to access your desktop. Specifically, we need both the host name (before the :), and the screen (after the :).
New 'X' desktop is n0302.ten.osc.edu:1
Option 2: Batch
This option is less optimal, because it is slightly more difficult to get the hostname and screen. However, by submitting a non-interactive batch job, you can go away and have the system email you when your desktop is ready to be connected to, and more importantly if your SSH connection to OSC is somewhat unstable and intermittent, you do not run the risk of being disconnected during your interactive session and having your VNC server terminated. In general, it is recommended you only use this option if running via an interactive session is not feasible.
In order to start an VNC session non-interactively, you can submit the following script to the scheduler using qsub (adjusting your walltime to what you need):
#PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=12:gpus=2:vis #PBS -l walltime=00:15:00 #PBS -m b #PBS -N VNCjob #PBS -j oe module load virtualgl module load turbovnc vncserver sleep 100 vncpid=`pgrep -s 0 Xvnc` while [ -e /proc/$vncpid ]; do sleep 0.1; done
This script will send you an email when your job has started, which includes the hostname.
PBS Job Id: 9200155.oak-batch.osc.edu Job Name: VNCjob Exec host: n0311/0-11 Begun execution
The screen is virtually always "1", unless someone else started a VNC server on that node outside of the batch system. You can verify the output of the vncserver command by using qpeek on a login node:
qpeek jobid
Where "jobid" is the batch system job number, for example, "9200155".
Connecting to your VNC server
Because the compute nodes of our clusters are not directly accessible, you must log in to one of the login nodes and allow your VNC client to "tunnel" through SSH to the compute node. The specific method of doing so may vary depending on your client software.
Option 1: Manually create an SSH tunnel
I will be providing the basic command line syntax, which works on Linux and MacOS. You would issue this in a new terminal window on your local machine, creating a new connection to Oakley.
ssh -L 5901:n0302.ten.osc.edu:5901 firstname.lastname@example.com
Open your VNC client, and connect to "localhost:1" - this will tunnel to the correct node on Oakley.
Option 2: Use your VNC software to tunnel
This example uses Chicken of the VNC, a MacOS VNC client.
The default window that comes up for Chicken requires the host to connect to, the screen (or port) number, and optionally allows you to specify a host to tunnel through via SSH. This screenshot shows a proper configuration for the output of vncserver shown above. Substitute your host, screen, and username as appropriate.
When you click [Connect], you will be prompted for your HPC password (to establish the tunnel, provided you did not input it into the "password" box on this dialog), and then (if you set one), for your VNC password. If your passwords are correct, the desktop will display in your client.
This example shows how to create a SSH tunnel through your ssh client. We will be using Putty in this example, but these steps are applicable to most SSH clients.
First, make sure you have x11 forwarding enabled in your SSH client.
Next, open up the port forwarding/tunnels settings and enter the hostname and port you got earlier in the destination field. You will need to add 5900 to the port number when specifiying it here. Some clients may have separate boxes for the desination hostname and port.
For source port, pick a number between 11-99 and add 5900 to it. This number between 11-99 will be the port you connect to in your VNC client.
Make sure to add the forwaded port, and save the changes you've made before exiting the configutations window.
Now start a SSH session to the respective cluster your vncserver is running on. The port forwarding will automatically happen in the background. Closing this SSH session will close the forwarded port; leave the session open as long as you want to use VNC.
Now start a VNC client. TurboVNC has been tested with our systems and is recommended. Enter localhost:[port], replacing [port] with the port between 11-99 you chose earlier.
If you've set up a VNC password you will be prompted for it now. A desktop display should pop up now if everything is configured correctly.
How to Kill a VNC session?
Occasionally you may make a mistake and start a VNC server on a login node or somewhere else you did not want to. In this case it is important to know how to properly kill your VNC server so no processes are left behind.
The command syntax to kill a VNC session is:
vncserver -kill :[screen]
In the example above, screen would be 1.
You need to make sure you are on the same node you spawned the VNC server on when running this command.

Our research is broadly defined around multiphysics problems in fluids and transport engineering, commonly involving phenomena such as: interfaces, shocks, electrohydrodynamics, turbulence, and micro/nano-scale engineering. Our work contributes to the understanding of these problems primarily through theoretical tools such as large-scale computation and techniques of applied mathematics. Numerical simulations enable quantitative visualization of the detailed physical processes which can be difficult to detect experimentally. They also provide insight for the development of reduced-order models. The ultimate goal in each problem is to provide a simple representation of the essential physics (ideally ODE-level) which would naturally induce insight into design, optimization and control. While these efforts at core rely on mathematical techniques such as asymptotic methods or statistical analysis, close interaction with experiments is crucial in identification of practical bottlenecks and validation of the theoretical assumptions.
Ali Mani is an Associate Professor at the Flow Physics and Computational Engineering and the Mechanics and Computation groups in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Stanford University. He received his Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering from Sharif University of Technology in 2002, and his Master of Science in mechanical engineering from Stanford University in 2004, followed by his Ph.D in 2009.

In decades gone by, the humble mouse was nothing more than a roughly palm-shaped plastic complement to your computer. But now's become a statement of your eco-consciousness, courtesy of the bamboo mouse.
The Bamboo Mouse: wooden wonder?
The Bamboo Optical Mouse combines a completely Bamboo cover with an optical undercarriage that boasts lead-free components.
The mouse is likely to make the ideal complement to the Asus bamboo-clad EcoBook laptop, which features a bamboo lid and keyboard area.
Anyone that might be tempted to feel slightly guilty about chopping down the Panda's favourite nibble to make a statement on their desktop will be comforted to hear that, according to the mouse's maker, bamboo is one of the world's fastest growing, more easily replenishable plants.
It also helps reduce carbon dioxide gases too, so everyone's a winner. The tree, we mean, not the mouse.
The Bamboo Optical Mouse is available from eDirectory here, and others, priced at around £19 (€28/$38).
If a bamboo mouse doesn't take your fancy, why not expand you eco-tech range with a bamboo-clad 19in LCD TV, monitor or keyboard? All available from PlayEngine, here.

Blind, Deaf Sue for Accessible Websites
Advocates for disabled Americans say companies have a legal obligation to make their websites as accessible as their stores, and the lawsuits are following. Joe Palazzolo and Serotek Corp. founder and CEO Mike Calvo, weigh in on Lunch Break. Photo: Target.com.
This transcript has been automatically generated and may not be 100% accurate.
... I ... all wine companies being the only apply ... to make your site accessible to the decline in the depths of the losses are putting this question to be tested to explain his job tells all of these the Wall Street Journal reporter covering this issue wheels of my Calvin is founder and CEO said to corp which makes software to enable excess ability for the blind thank so much ... to both of you for being here ... Joe what's start with you several advocacy groups filing lawsuits ... on to basically force companies to make their sites would easily accessible however these losses played out so far read so most of them actually and not that the court said ... know this'll all the Americans with disabilities Act doesn't quite doesn't extend to the online space ... um but a couple of big decisions against Target and Netflix ... in cases these were to spill the lawsuits and the court said in that argument is that we get it you know if the websites an extension of the retailer ... then you know this this ability will clients in the other one for Netflix to said ... look ... the digital space is just as physical space and we think the images that I think that this low-cost itself ... because obviously whenever into effect this was an issue at the time ... the Emerald whether robots ... IDs Mike I should have turned you know you were born blind on CQG advocate this point ... op or the blind in particular we care company in yet ... don't necessarily think that wall since our the solution here why is that ... well Wendy and I don't think that anybody likes to have the legal ... sword held to their throat or gun to their head and said you better do this just because it's legal or not it just makes good business sense ... there are millions of blind Americans there are hundreds of millions of wine consumers all over the world and I believe that we we represent a very good consumer base ... will we do need to whisper blind folks to begin to advocate for themselves is that it is depending on one or two particular ... consumer groups to call themselves the police of the blind it there's certainly a voice but ... we all have individual voices and I believe the collective is a ... very yet able to fend for itself in many respects by advocating a state you help us by making your ... sites or software on a mobile phone or computer accessible than will buy ... I do you think that collectively to speak of it is big enough ... ought to be on market forces that will ... enforce change on its own with out over there the firm ego impetus to do so ... again I a I agree with you all else fails ... due to legal thing ... but nobody likes to be regulated in regulation is just a big blanket that make some things ... I mean for example graphic arts why is a morning person what I wanted graphic arts website accessible ... if they make it ... everybody has to make their website accessible nine year you're putting in and do burden on somebody that it really doesn't ... help of a car driving site you know an airplane flying site Meetic and a ridiculous for me but ... you don't so let's try an advocate for sells its creative dialogue between the consumer ... and the provider of the prospect or services if you listen this is what we need so we can use your product again I believe that ... I mean it's it's it's money right there that when the screen is not one among your cited people money it's just mind ... for quite a package of Umansky this how much does it typically ... takes to make a website accessible mean just talking to some of the different players out there have ... been in the boring answers to various red ... but if you are trying to reference that it's it's the same asleep in ... the reckoning of the ... apostrophe it costs a lot of money ... time to get in there and and to make an ... entirely sensible ... um in in ... in in in spots like ten percent of your entire ... cycle so ... if you spend million dollars of website which is not a common unit of ... ten percent ... I'm so ... if you are answered doing it is to go long every time you update website in eastern builds and ... builds inaccessibility features the stunning costs much less that of its ... twenty oh one to three percent of the top so it just depends on how you do I do it and some these companies that do it's an ally like Apple in particular ... you tell them what they get done so far and say that ... I've that the proof is in how many people ... go Apple now because they have made their site accessible ... Apple is doing more with the growing consumer in the twentieth century than any mainstream non excess ability of the ... type of company in history ... Apple has really not much I don't sell Apple and not an Apple employee irritating Alison says that they have really done more for our community than anybody everybody else is kind of jumped on board ... but a blind person can right now walk into any Apple store by any Apple product ... off the shelf to get home an open their goodies to play with them themselves and it when you walk into a store you get when somebody that knows the stuff ... they greet you with respect and dignity Tisch RIL how that works and ... and really I mean and that's that's ... yes and bolting on is certainly much more expensive than building and but in technology Refreshes and all the recent refreshes itself all the time ... so and so the website so you know out their website redesign going on all the time ... and that excess ability roadmap has certainly been outdone very very well over the last few years so ... there really is no excuse for company and not to do it ... I think it's ignorance versus stupidity dealing with the PT to watch how this plays out in the marketplace and and of course Joe counselor thanks for being with us take Wall Street Journal thank you my Calvin thanks for being with us appreciate it

Three Main Commitments of His Holiness the Dalai Lama
Firstly, on the level of a human being, His Holiness' first commitment is the promotion of human values such as compassion, forgiveness, tolerance, contentment and self-discipline. All human beings are the same. We all want happiness and do not want suffering. Even people who do not believe in religion recognize the importance of these human values in making their life happier. His Holiness refers to these human values as secular ethics. He remains committed to talk about the importance of these human values and shares them with everyone he meets.
Secondly, on the level of a religious practitioner, His Holiness' second commitment is the promotion of religious harmony and understanding among the world's major religious traditions. Despite philosophical differences, all major world religions have the same potential to create good human beings. It is therefore important for all religious traditions to respect one another and recognize the value of each other's respective traditions. As far as one truth, one religion is concerned, this is relevant on an individual level. However, for the community at large, several truths, several religions are necessary.
Thirdly, His Holiness is a Tibetan and carries the name of the 'Dalai Lama'. Tibetans place their trust in him. Therefore, his third commitment is to the Tibetan issue. His Holiness' has a responsibility to act as the free spokesperson of the Tibetans in their struggle for justice. As far as this third commitment is concerned, it will cease to exist once a mutually beneficial solution is reached between the Tibetans and Chinese.
However, His Holiness will carry on with the first two commitments till his last breath.

There are a couple of ways to spot changes in earnings, Cramer said. Investors can start at the bottom – visiting stores, watching cash registers, counting transactions and as many stores as possible. Then when something is flying off the shelves at a pace that isn't reflected by the earnings estimates, buy the stock of whomever makes it.
This requires more time than most people have, so instead investors can try to anticipate spending cycles. The airlines have an incredibly predictable spending cycle, Cramer said. When Boeing is getting lots of orders, investors should buy the stocks of Boeing's suppliers: Fairchild , BEA Systems, Honeywell. Then as soon as analysts start loving these stocks, Cramer recommends getting out.
The same goes for semiconductors. These companies like to raise money to buy equipment when they're doing well. So when this happens, load up on their suppliers: Applied Material, KLA-Tencor, Kullicke & Soffa, Novellus. Telephone companies are no different, so follow the same strategy – buy their suppliers then bail when the analysts get onboard, Cramer said.
Bottom Line: Investors should watch the indicators, stay disciplined, and the rest of the market will follow them, Cramer said. That's the situation they want to be in. The lead dog might feel lonely, but he's got the best view.

Creation of a small or local Solid Waste Collection Area is possible only when a petition is made by a resident and supported by at least 55 percent of the residents within an area of 50 homes or more. In cases where residents of an area wish to receive service and the homes are contiguous to an existing small or local Solid Waste Collection Area or Sanitary District, the residences may be added to the existing district by canvassing only the number of homes necessary to make the enlargement contiguous to and homogeneous with the existing small or local area.
Initiation of a Petition
The petition chairperson (either the person who requested the petition or designee) is responsible for contacting the resident/owner of each dwelling unit in the proposed area. Responses must be indicated on the petition survey provided by the Solid Waste Management Program.
Only the signature of the legal homeowner is acceptable on the petition. One signature per residence will be counted. Renters do not have the authority to sign petitions since they are not responsible for the real estate taxes on which the charge is placed, therefore, such signatures will be deemed invalid.
Approval Process
Once the signed petitions are received by the Solid Waste Management Program, signatures are verified and the petition package is prepared and compiled for submission to the County of Fairfax Board of Supervisors. The Board of Supervisors authorizes the advertisement of a public hearing to be held in the Board Auditorium of the Government Center Building.
The public hearing date is publicized for two consecutive weeks. When the public hearing is held, all support and/or opposition should be expressed by property owners.
Once the proposed area is approved as a small or local Sanitary District by the Board of Supervisors, the residents will be notified by mail, assigned a trash collection service day, and service will begin according to the timetable. Participating households are charged a user fee on their real estate tax assessment.
Petition Timetable
Services begin either on Jan. 1 or July 1 of any given year after approval of all petition requests. In order for the administrative preparation of the petitions to be completed, the following timetable applies.
Petitions due: June 30/January 30
Public hearing: October/May
Service(s) begin: Jan. 1/July 1
Contact Information
For more information, or to obtain petition forms, please contact:
12000 Government Center Parkway, Suite 458
Fairfax, Virginia 22035-0060

Guy Fired For Getting in Argument Over Work Printer and Threatening to 'Shoot Up the Place Like Newtown'
In the heat of argument, people sometimes say some dumb things. For example, I once got in an disagreement with a coworker and told him that I was going to piss in his coffee. I didn't mean to say that. I meant to say "in his desk drawer" but it was all cleared up the next day when he reached into his desk drawer. He was so surprised he spit out the cup of piss I made him!
Anyway, we say nasty things to coworkers when we're stressed, and this guy is no different. Except he made reference to the Newtown school shooting when the printer went on the fritz.
"Township police were called out to Batallure Beauty LLC in the Carnegie Center on Wednesday when employees asked them to document the Jan. 31 incident in a report. No charges have been filed, and none will because the incident did not take place in the officers' presence, Lt. Pat McCormick said this morning.
According to police, Donald Ardito was at work Jan. 31 with a colleague when they began arguing about the printer malfunction. Ardito allegedly became very upset and said: "If I had a gun, I'd take everyone out like Newtown." Ardito does not own a gun, McCormick said."
So the printer goes down and this guy wants to shoot up the place? Doesn't anyone use baseball bats and rap music montages anymore?
The article goes on to mention that "Ardito said in a phone interview he had not been told he was fired." Hope they changed the key code already.

My very first E3 2012 appointment this morning was with peripheral company Razer. At the forefront of their booth beneath a glass case sat this thing. My first question for the team: "What the hell is that thing?"
The Razer Artemis is a concept device aimed at giving players of Piranha Games' Mechwarrior Online a more immersive way to play. By the look of it, this is what Capcom should have gone with for the new Steel Battalion game instead of no controller at all.
Essentially this is a flight stick and a keypad linked together by a built-in LCD display, simulating the cockpit of a giant metal machine of mass destruction.
Razer worked with Piranha and Infinite Game Publishing to create this fully programmable concept controller, custom-built from the ground-up for one game. It's got force feedback. A button on the keypad can be pressed to shift the function of the joystick trigger. The display? Well it's very pretty and can probably be used to display maps or something.
Isn't it gorgeous?
How much will it cost? When will it come out? Will it come out? This is a concept, so Razer doesn't have to answer those questions. Just enjoy it, hit up the official website for more info, and who knows? One day it could be yours.

Soopaman Luva 5 (Part II) Lyrics
Artist: Redman
Album: Malpractice
Aiyyo yo fuck that!
Aiyyo I gotta find my motherfuckin mojo
Aiyyo Reggie Noble, aiyyo Reggie Noble c'mere nigga!
Aiyyo start it off while I tell you how it went down
Yo, yo
Put the drop down, get your smoke on
Get your feel on, are you feeling?
Get your girl on, get your squeeze on
Get your bus on, are you chilling?
Are you wheeling, are you feeling?
How you feeling? And we gon' hooo-oooh-ooh
(Tell me what you doin)
C'mon, yo yo-yo yo, yo yo
I had to put the mash down, throw the cash around
Stay focused, on the case put the hash down
Jetted through the air about five miles per hour
My mojo gone I can't fly like I wanna
But this case is easy, find that motherfucker that
couldn't wait to be me, put his face on TV
From the tec blow, I asked my ex-hoes
Pass off some info for a pair of X.O.'s
Write the check low, I don't do that
I told you that shit before when I boned your back
Now I'm back to square one, and everybody hatin
So I popped the flare gun, now they all escapin
Ran into Gator, from _Jungle Fever_
He's my people and my neighbor, I said I need a favor
He said for ten dollars, and for ten Whoppers
from Burger King, I'll tell you the nigga who gotcha
Gave him what he wanted plus the extra large fry
He said blue eyes, blonde hair, a white guy
I said... what the fuck goin on?
A white guy interruptin my fuck flowin on?
So I copped some new ammo, reloaded my flare gun
Stalkin like Rambo, mixed with Commando
Gator pushed the ten-speed bike, I'm on the handle
Crashed into somethin cause he high off my man blow
I jumped up and backtracked myself
Who's the last hoe I fucked or throat I cut?
I said wait a minute, yo, that bitch Jane on the prowl again
I bet she up to no good, actin foul again
Yeah, yeah, it ain't nuttin, I get her if I want her
Matter of fact I'm gonna cause she live around the corner
I walked up scared with my hands on my flares and my armor
cause she bring drama like Jeffrey Dahmer
But I heard fuckin all the way from the bottom
I'm like, damn she yellin! Kinda made me jealous
Knocked on the door enraged
like a broke-ass rapper, at a label that ain't toured in days
Do it clown, before I count to four now
Cause if I hit five them flares'll blow your door down
I heard the zipper zip up, and they was tryin to run
So I re-clipped the clip up, and blew it before one
FREEZE MOTHERFUCKERS, I jumped on Jane back
I WANT THE CHEESE MOTHERFUCKERS, and my name back
We tusslin, fightin, bitin skin and rustlin
Slaps in the face, chokes with the belt buckle and
her knees bucklin, I thought to myself
"Where's that motherfuckin white guy she was fuckin?" then
right out the blue {*CLANG!*} Owww! {*birds chirpin*}
Who dat? Who dere?
.. (this program will be continued)

Cold and flu remedies decoded
Are you and your family sharing a box of tissues, a runny nose, streaming eyes and a hacking cough? While your first port of call before reaching for the cold and flu medications is to talk to your GP or pharmacist, Doctor Andrew Boyden, Clinical Advisor at NPS MedicineWise gives us the basics on cold and flu season remedies - what to give and when (and what is a waste of your cash).
Got a cold but don't know where to begin with what to take, how much to take and when to take it? Here's what you need to know about cold and flu remedies to help put those sniffles to bed.
This is used to reduce pain and fever, and a common ingredient in many cold and flu remedies. Make sure you don't 'double dose' by checking the medicine's label or talking to your chemist. Always follow the instructions on the medicine's label or those given by your doctor or pharmacist to make sure that you don't take more than the maximum recommended dose.
Ibuprofen is used to reduce fever, and relieve pain and inflammation. It can be given to help ease any pain and discomfort associated with colds and flu.
"While paracetamol and ibuprofen can help relieve discomfort, it's worth noting that fever is actually a sign that your body's immune system is fighting an infection — so taking these medicines solely to reduce a mild fever may not be that helpful. If you or your child's temperature rises above 38.5°C, seek medical advice," says Dr Boyden.
Asprin is used to relieve pain and fever and reduce inflammation. "Aspirin should not be given to children younger than 12 years old. Seek medical advice before giving aspirin to adolescents aged 12 to 16 years. Pregnant women and people with certain medical conditions may not be able to take aspirin, so talk to your GP or pharmacist before taking it.
Cough and cold medicines
Many 'cough and cold' medicines combine a cough suppressant and/or an expectorant with other active ingredients including antihistamines, decongestants and paracetamol. Make sure you discuss all the medications you are taking with the pharmacist or your GP as they may interact, or you may be 'doubling up' on ingredients (e.g. paracetamol).
Advice about cough and cold medicines for children changed late last year — they should no longer be given to children younger than 6 years old. Experts also recommend that you ask a doctor, pharmacist or nurse practitioner for advice before giving cough and cold medicines to children aged 6 to 11 years. This is because few clinical trials have proven their effectiveness, but they are known to cause serious side effects (i.e. fits).
Nasal decongestants
Decongestants help relieve congestion by narrowing (constricting) the blood vessels and reducing blood flow and swelling in the nose, allowing you to breathe more easily. As with cough and cold medications, do not give to children younger than 6 years old and seek advice before giving to children aged 6 to 11 years. Don't use nasal decongestants for longer than 4 or 5 days, and only use the recommended dose.
People with certain health conditions or taking other medications may not be able to use nasal decongestants. Ask your GP or pharmacist for advice.
Non medicated (saline) sinus sprays
Far from being the last resort for babies too young to take anything else, these salt water sprays or drops (e.g. Fess) can help clear congested sinuses. (They're also great to have on hand during hay fever season).
Many of us may consider obtaining antibiotics step number one when we, or our kids, get sick with a cold or flu. Unfortunately, use and misuse of antibiotics has contributed to creating 'superbugs' – antibiotic resistant bacteria. "Most colds and flu will resolve themselves within 10 days with good self care (e.g rest and hydration). If your cold or flu symptoms don't improve after 10 days, or they get worse, see your doctor.
"Antibiotics won't help a cold or flu. Colds and flu are caused by viruses. Antibiotics don't fight viruses, only bacteria. Sometimes a secondary bacterial infection may rear its ugly head as a side effect of your cold – but even then, not all bacterial infections will require antibiotics to clear it," says Dr Boyden. This is not a call you need to make for yourself – talk to your GP and let them know you only want antibiotics if they feel you genuinely require them.
Vitamins and herbs
While some people may find vitamins (such as vitamin C), mineral supplements (like zinc) or herbal medicines (such as echinacea) helpful, there is not enough information from good quality clinical trials to show that vitamin or mineral supplements or herbal medicines help to treat or prevent colds and flu. There is also generally limited information on the safety of vitamins, minerals and complementary medicines, and some can cause side effects.
Always check with a doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicine including prescription, over-the-counter and complementary medicines (herbal, 'natural', vitamins and mineral supplements).
