"To study only the psychological problems that may occur after childbirth betrays blindness to the devastating emotional impact abortion can have on women," said Janet Morana, co-founder of the SNMAC. "Post-abortion disorders are at least as serious as postpartum depression and can last much longer."
"To emphasize the problems of giving birth and remain silent about the problems associated with abortion is to give the false impression that there are only harmful psychological consequences if you give birth," added Georgette Forney, also a co-founder of SNMAC. "While the amendment doesn't guarantee that the government will study post-abortion disorders, it at least reminds researchers that women are suffering serious problems associated with abortion that need attention."
Since the launching of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign in 2003, 2,326 women and men have shared their testimonies publicly at 189 gatherings in 44 states and six countries where more than 15,000 spectators have heard the truth about abortion's negative aftereffects. More than 4,100 people are registered to be Silent No More. Raising awareness about the hurtful aftermath of abortion and the help that is available to cope with the pain are two of the Campaign's goals.
The Silent No More Awareness Campaign is a joint project of Anglicans for Life and Priests for Life. For more information, please visit our website: http://www.silentnomoreawareness.org/

Here are some topics that have been on our mind lately. For a full listing of topics, check out Our Topics Page .
Choosing a type palette goes beyond considering aesthetics, legibility, browser support, and performance. For fonts to truly be appropriate for your project, they must also be technically and financially sound solutions. No one wants to be surprised by the outrageous cost of a font package all designs have been delivered.
If you're working client-side and are trying to evaluate whether a palette will break your bank, here are some nuances that will help ensure both your chosen fonts and license fit your project needs.
Your webfont budget (even if that's zero) is like any other business requirement—reasonable and justified, so long as it's made known early in the project (ideally before any formal graphic design begins). Consider how costs may run across years, and whether the fonts will be used for any subdomains. For some licensing, using webfonts across a lot of small sites can be more expensive than the sum of their usage on a single domain.
No matter how your fonts will be loaded onto your site, most often, your cost will be based on pageviews. A pageview is a request to load a single page on your site—this includes hitting refresh, as well as navigating away then returning to the original page. Each foundry and webfont service has its own formula for translating pageviews to a licensing fee, but pageviews—and therefore costs—can rack up quickly. It's important to understand your current and future traffic, and how they may drive the cost of your webfonts.
There are currently two main methods to serve fonts on your site: host the files yourself, or host them through a webfont service. Neither option is outright "better" than the other—each carries its own pros and cons.
When you self-host your webfonts, you purchase a license to use the font files, most often from a foundry or from sites that represent multiple foundries. In return, you receive installable font files to embed in your CSS . Alternatively, many webfont providers offer to host your fonts for you. Instead of receiving installable font files, you'll receive a specific snippet of code to add to your site. This snippet of code will load an additional JavaScript file and render font data from the provider's server.

and it will be integrated and return a result in Python. The performance increase here arises from two factors. The primary improvement is faster function evaluation, which is provided by compilation of the function itself. Additionally we have a speedup provided by the removal of function calls between C and Python in
. This method may provide a speed improvements of ~2x for trivial functions such as sine but can produce a much more noticeable improvements (10x+) for more complex functions. This feature then, is geared towards a user with numerically intensive integrations willing to write a little C to reduce computation time significantly.
The approach can be used, for example, via

in a few simple steps:
1.) Write an integrand function in C with the function signature
, where
is an array containing the point the function f is evaluated at, and
to arbitrary additional data you want to provide.
2.) Now compile this file to a shared/dynamic library (a quick search will help with this as it is OS-dependent). The user must link any math libraries, etc. used. On linux this looks like:
The output library will be referred to as

in the function is optional and can be omitted (both in the C function and ctypes argtypes) if not needed. Note that the coordinates are passed in as an array of doubles rather than a separate argument.
4.) Now integrate the library function as normally, here using
Amazon SQS lets you include structured metadata (such as timestamps, geospatial data, signatures, and identifiers) with messages using message attributes . Each message can have up to 10 attributes.

'Right to Work' bill back on tap in LegislatureBy GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
January 30. 2013 9:54PM
CONCORD - Passing right-to-work legislation will help spur the state's economy and set the state apart in the Northeast, supporters of the bill said at a hearing Tuesday.
But opponents said House Bill 322 is an attack on organized labor that will drive down wages and destroy middle-class families in New Hampshire.
Like the bill, now dubbed the Franklin Partin right-to-work act, the arguments in support and in opposition have changed little over the past two years.
Supporters touted the economic benefits such a law would spur, saying no person should be forced to pay dues for something they disagree with or don't believe in. They said it was not a union issue, but a freedom issue.
But opponents argue the bill will not spur the economy but drive down wages and benefits for all state workers. They say right-to-work is a state intrusion into negotiations between organized labor and employers.
Former House Speaker William O'Brien, R-Mont Vernon, the prime sponsor of the bill, pushed right-to-work legislation the last two sessions, only to have former Democratic Gov. John Lynch veto the bill and the House fail to override it in 2011. Last year, the Senate was not willing to engage in the debate, saying the outcome would be the same.
Federal law already prohibits forcing anyone to join a union, although several members of the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services Committee said they were inundated with emails saying it would end forced unionization.
The bill would prohibit employers and labor organizations from including fees for non-union members in collective bargaining agreements. Unions collect the fees to pay for the cost of negotiating and maintaining the collective bargaining agreement from non-union members.
O'Brien told the House committee that the bill would restore job creation in New Hampshire and begin to bring some of the state's young people back home.
"I understand in New Hampshire Right-to-Work takes on almost religious overtones," O'Brien said, "where the facts don't make a difference, it's the emotion."
He countered the often-used arguments that right-to-work lowers wages, saying wages are low because the new jobs are at the introductory level, but grow over time.
"New Hampshire will be left behind economically," O'Brien said, "or we can eventually adopt and reap the benefits of being a right-to-work state."
Another HB 322 sponsor, Rep. John Cebrowski, R-Bedford, said passing the bill will bring the state additional revenue without raising taxes as manufacturing companies move here. The business climate is stagnant as business taxes have hovered around the $520 million level for the past few years, he said.
The additional money could be used to increase state aid to the university system, for the Children in Need of Services program, for the developmentally disabled and for the Department of Safety, all with legitimate needs, he noted.
Right-to-work will help differentiate New Hampshire from other states, Cebrowski said, adding that it will strengthen the New Hampshire advantage.
But opponents of the bill had a sharply different view.
NH AFL-CIO president Mark MacKenzie said forced union membership is prohibited both in New Hampshire and the rest of the country and is not what the bill is about.
The bill deals with provisions in collective bargaining agreements approved by both employers and unions, he said. "This would say to business you can't negotiate what you think is something in your best interest," MacKenzie said.
Fees to cover the cost of negotiations and contract maintenance are not something imposed by the union, he said, but voted on by both management and labor. The fees promote peace in the workplace, he said.
"I think we are all on the same page that we need to promote economic development in the State of New Hampshire. We have an out-migration of workers," MacKenzie said. "If I thought right-to-work was the end all and the economy would explode, I'd probably have a different opinion on this, but that has never happened. This is not a silver bullet."
Former Representative and current state Democratic State Chairman Raymond Buckley of Manchester noted in the 18 years he served in the House, no right-to-work legislation ever passed, although it passed the House twice in the last two years.
"Right-to-work is driven by radical ideology," he said. "There is no reason to implement it in this state."
Former Rep. David Welch, R-Kingston, noted he ran in 2010 saying he would support right-to-work legislation but when he learned union members were a small percentage of the state's workforce, he did not see a problem and voted against the legislation.
"I lost my election because of this issue," Welch said. "All the emails I got about the union thugs, it turns out the thugs are not in the unions."
The committee did not make an immediate recommendation on the bill.

Veteran Y executive Buddy Campbell to succeed long-time CEO John Murray
YMCA Buffalo Niagara has announced the selection of Olin B. "Buddy" Campbell Jr. as the association's new chief executive officer. Campbell will replace retiring CEO John Murray, who is stepping down in February 2013 after serving in the position for 25 years.
Campbell, a native of Batavia, comes to Buffalo from the YMCA of Greater Rochester where he worked the past 12 years, including 11 as senior vice president/association advancement. He was a key member of a senior leadership team that increased the Rochester Y's revenues 108 percent, membership by 165 percent, and program revenue by 67 percent. The Rochester Y is roughly double the size of the Buffalo Niagara Y.
Prior to joining the Rochester association, Campbell served more than 10 years as the Buffalo Niagara Y's chief operating officer, working hand-in-hand with Murray to turn around the association, which had experienced many years of poor financial performances prior to them assuming management. Under the leadership of Murray and Campbell, the Buffalo Niagara Y achieved nine consecutive years of financial surpluses, expanded school-age child care from four sites to 41, and developed a new branch in Lancaster.
Campbell joined the YMCA in 1973 while still a student at the State University College at Brockport from which he earned his undergraduate degree in 1974. He worked for the Genesee Area Y in Batavia until 1982, at which time he joined the Rochester Y. He came to Buffalo in 1988 and then went to Rochester in 1999.
"We are thrilled to have secured Buddy Campbell as our next CEO," said Anthony Spada, CEO of AAA Western and Central New York and chair of YMCA Buffalo Niagara's board of directors. "The position was posted on the YMCA's national job board and we had a large pool of very qualified candidates. And when all was said and done, Buddy was head and shoulders above the field. He knows Buffalo, he knows our Y, and he will hit the ground running in February to assume the very large shoes of John Murray."
The search committee was composed of long-time YMCA volunteers and chaired by Maureen Hurley, executive vice president and chief administrative officer of Rich Products. YMCA national search consultants Mike Harrison and Rick Peterson served as advisers to the committee.
"This is my dream job," Campbell said. "While I've worked in Rochester many years and enjoyed a great career and would have been very happy to finish there, the lure of coming back to Buffalo was too strong to pass up. It will be a privilege to be able to continue the legacy of John Murray and all of the committed volunteers who have built the Buffalo Niagara Y into one of the most respected associations in the country. I am looking forward to working with the volunteers and staff to take our YMCA to the next level."
Campbell joins the Buffalo Niagara Y at a noteworthy juncture, just as the association opens its new, 94,000-square-foot Independent Health Family Branch YMCA near the Main and Young intersection in Williamsville.
Founded in 1852, YMCA Buffalo Niagara is the second-oldest YMCA in the U.S. and one of the oldest continuously operating institutions in Western New York. The Buffalo Niagara Y has a full-time staff of 79 people who oversee more than 800 part-time employees, eight branches, and operations in 30 off-site locations.
Locally founded in 1852, YMCA Buffalo Niagara is an inclusive association of people committed to a common effort to help individuals and families reach their fullest potential in terms of spirit, mind and body. The YMCA's focus on health and wellness is reflected in the variety of programs that it offers for all ages and abilities. Additionally, collaborations with insurance carriers such as Univera, Independent Health and BlueCross BlueShield provide the opportunity for those wanting to take the first step toward a healthier lifestyle to do so at the YMCA.
A not-for-profit organization, YMCA Buffalo Niagara serves more than 100,000 people annually through the seven branches located throughout Western New York, YMCA Camp Weona, as well as at 40-plus community-based program sites. This outreach would not be possible without the support of volunteers. From summer camp, preschool and school-age child care to SilverSneakers, youth sports programs and swimming lessons, there is no shortage of activities at the YMCA.

The Lewiston-Porter Board of Education meeting opened with a festive atmosphere featuring holiday songs performed by a number of fifth-graders. Then for one minute, a silence hung over the room as tribute was paid to the victims and survivors of Newtown, Conn.
Lewiston-Porter's reaction to the violence in Connecticut was handled in a manner that was befitting the district.
First, all recognitions of students at the board meeting were made prior to Superintendent Chris Roser's comments on the events in Newtown. Once those students had left the room Roser explained how school was handled on Friday and Monday as events and news spread.
At the high school and middle school, there was a moment of silence and a statement made by the respective principals. At the Intermediate Education and Primary centers, the administration felt that it was the parent's choice if they wanted to discuss the incident with their children.
Counselors were available in each building for any child that might have required it.
"All hands were on deck," said Roser. "However, we wanted a normal routine in the classes.
"We posted our guidelines on our website and explained what things were being done. When we became aware of the situation on Friday, our crisis intervention team met and they also met again on Monday morning."
The letter is still posted on the website.
"It was a good day of school, we found parents were judicious in what they told or didn't tell their children," Roser went on.
"There was lots of dialogue on Connecticut," said High School Principal Paul Casseri. "We have a strong administrative team and information was put out there so we could support each other.
"It was very difficult these last few days," concluded Casseri.
"We reassured both parents and children that we are a safe campus," said Roser.
At Lew-Port, each building has limited access through the main door, all others are locked, and visitors must buzz and identify themselves prior to entering.
Roser also explained there are state and national requirements on safety drills, lockdown, lockout and shelter-in-place situations.
"However, we are always looking at ways to create an even better and safer campus," said Roser.
An excerpt from Roser's website letter to parents and guardians of Lew-Port reads:
"Nothing is more precious or dear to us than the children and young adults we are entrusted to educate and protect. We take that sacred trust seriously and responsibly. Working together, we will continue to strengthen that sacred trust and bond which make our nation and American education a beacon of hope and excellence to the world."
In other news
•The plans for a new recreation/community/senior center in the Town of Lewiston have the Lewiston-Porter School District looking to sell off property on the front side of the high school.
The district has been negotiating with the town and have come up with a $5,000 per acre price tag.
In that light, the board heard a letter of intent that it would present to the Town of Lewiston that would outline conditions of the sale.
Most important is the board's ability to approve the plans and specifications for the building. There would be a restrictive covenant that limits the building to recreational purposes and parking for a specified number of vehicles. It would also allow for district use of the building for instructional and practice purposes from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The board of education will ask for right of first refusal. In the event the town would discontinue use of the property, it would be returned to the school district or be demolished.
Other issues addressed are acceptable access points so that traffic to the school is not inhibited, a lighted parking lot from dusk to dawn for safety and having the town responsible for relocating school signage.
While a formal vote was not required, the board gave Roser the approval to finalize the letter in order to start negotiations with the town.
Once negotiations are complete, there will be an open time period during which residents of the district could ask for a referendum, even though it is not required by law.
•In order to control the number of school lunches being charged, the board of education approved a policy that allows no charging of school lunches for adults and high school students (grades 9-12); up to two reimbursable meals can be charged in the middle school (grades 6-8) and up to three in the elementary school (K-5).
The policy permits any student who uses up his allotted charges and has no lunch to be provided with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or cheese sandwich and milk, which will be charged to the student's account.
In addition, students may no longer charge snacks and no snacks will be sold to a student with a negative balance on his account.
"This is to put a control on the charges, which have amounted to $20,000 over the past few years," said Roser.
•Budget workshops have been scheduled, beginning on Jan. 29, 2013, and continuing Feb. 5, 12 and 26; March 5, 12 and 26, and on April 9. All meetings are open to the public and are subject to change.
The board is scheduled to adopt the 2013-14 budget on April 16 with a "Meet the Candidates" night scheduled for May 8; a public hearing on the budget May 14, and the annual meeting and vote on May 21.
Wrapping up:
•The board heard a report on the fall sports from Scott Townsend, athletic director.
•The board accepted the donation of $1,000 from the Lewiston-Porter Alumni Class of 1987 and $210 from the Music Boosters to be used for the purchase of music stands and music stand racks.

Elizabeth Root, a licensed Loan Consultant at Better, explains how to decide whether or not to include another person in your mortgage application.
Many of our Better customers buy homes with a significant other, family member, or even a close friend by their side. If you're in the same boat, you might be wondering if you should include that certain someone in your mortgage application as a co-borrower. Let's discuss whether doing so is right for you.
Let's start off by discussing what exactly it means to be a co-borrower. While you'll often hear "co-borrower" used to refer to anyone who's on the mortgage, lenders make a few more distinctions within that term. To start, a co-borrower is any additional borrower listed on the mortgage whose income, assets, and credit history are used to qualify for the loan. Both co-borrowers on the mortgage are equally responsible for mortgage payments and typically have ownership of the house (i.e. they're both on the property's title). Having a co-borrower is not a requirement for getting a mortgage, but it can be helpful in that together, you and your co-borrower may find it easier to qualify for a mortgage (or a larger one) than you might have individually.
Co-borrowers are usually spouses or partners, but you can be "co-borrowers" with someone you are not married to, like a relative or friend. In this case, you'll be referred to as co-applicants . The relationship and process are essentially identical to that of co-borrowers, but your lender will account for your separate finances by issuing you and your co-applicant individual loan applications for the same mortgage. It's also possible to have a co-borrower that doesn't live in the home that the loan is for -- they are referred to as a non-occupant co-borrower .
You can also have a "co-borrower" who is not on the title and therefore doesn't have ownership of the home -- co-signers are equally responsible for the mortgage as the actual borrower, while guarantors are only responsible for the loan in the event that the primary borrower can't repay it. A common scenario for this is a parent who co-signs or guarantees for their child, whose mortgage application benefits from their parent's added income, assets, and credit history.
Adding a co-borrower (or co-applicant, co-signer, or guarantor) can be beneficial as doing so could bring additional income and assets to the table. The combined income between the two of you may allow you to qualify for a larger loan amount, since you can afford higher monthly mortgage payments together.
Having a co-borrower may also help your ability to get approved for a mortgage in the first place by improving your debt-to-income ratio (DTI). Your DTI is all your monthly debt payments divided by your gross monthly income. Learn more about DTI here.United States Senator Edward J. Markey

BOSTON, May 23, 2018 – Last night, after a thoughtful and substantive debate, the Massachusetts Senate voted 25–13 to approve Sen. Jamie Eldridge's amendment #1147 , which adds four key protections for immigrants to the state budget for FY2019.amendment #1147
In particular, the amendment bars police from asking about people's immigration status unless required by law; ends 287(g) contracts that deputize state and local law enforcement as ICE agents; requires that immigrants be notified of their due-process rights; and ensures that Massachusetts does not contribute to any registry based on religion, ethnicity, citizenship or other protected categories.
The Senate then voted 25–13 to reject an amendment that included the same provisions, but also would have authorized police to detain immigrants for ICE, undoing the gains of the Supreme Judicial Court's Lunn v. Commonwealth decision last year.
The 22nd annual Immigrants' Day at the State House was both a reckoning with the devastating impact of the Trump administration, and a reminder of the importance of state- and local-level action.
BOSTON, April 4, 2018 – The theme of the day was "Immigrants get the job done," and dozens of black-and-orange posters offered proof in numbers.
1 in 5 workers in Massachusetts is an immigrant; 1 in 5 entrepreneurs, too; 59% of medical and life scientists. Immigrants in our state pay $8.4 billion in federal taxes each year, and $3.5 billion in state and local taxes. 7,100 workers are Salvadorans or Haitians with Temporary Protected Status.

In a week of high-profile reporting mistakes, a local Fox station may have made the funniest, and most harmless.
During the final standoff between police and 19-year-old Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the closed captioner for Fox 4 Dallas-Fort Worth substituted Tsarnaev's for that of actress Zooey Deschanel.
To be fair, no one is sure how to pronounce Zooey Deschanel's name either.
Grabbed by radio producer Peter Ogburn, the screenshot of the error rocketed around the social media sphere as a welcome moment of levity.
Oh come on, Fox twitter.com/peterogburn/st…— Peter Ogburn (@peterogburn) April 20, 2013
Deschanel responded, calling the error an "epic closed captioning FAIL!"
Whoa! Epic closed captioning FAIL! "@joelmchale: Oh my RT @peterogburn: twitter.com/peterogburn/st…"— zooey deschanel (@ZooeyDeschanel) April 20, 2013

Julie Erfle: Unlikely Advocate for Immigration Reform
When her husband, Phoenix police officer Nick Erfle, was killed by an undocumented immigrant, many Arizonans expected Julie Erfle to join forces with the state's anti-immigration groups. But Erfle surprised them.
"I refused to be a part of that equation, because America can do better," she says. Erfle's background as a journalist led her to examine the misconceptions behind America's immigration debate that inhibit positive change. She created a website to share her findings, hoping her observations would motivate others to get involved in the movement for immigration policy reform. "It's toxic to even address [immigration] for many of our leaders because there is so much misinformation out there," Erfle says. "My main focus is to educate."
Erfle partners as a powerful spokesperson with immigration reform groups. And her blog, Politics Uncuffed, offers a thoughtful perspective on the search for solutions.
Beyond the Supreme Court: For immigrant communities in Arizona and beyond, the struggle against draconian laws begins at home.

Why did ten undocumented immigrants choose to get arrested in Charlotte, even when they knew they could face deportation?

An International Space Station ARISS school contact has been planned with one of five Malaysian Group of Schools at the National Planetarium in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 14 Oct. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 17:17 UTC. The contact will be a direct between and Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor - 9W2MUS and station 9M2RPN. The contact should be audible in most of Malaysia. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The participants are expected to conduct the conversation in English. This will be the first ARISS opportunity to establish a radio link between school children and the ISS, also talking to our Malaysian Astronaut. This is going to be a most stimulating experience for school children to learn first hand something about Space and human spaceflight. These contacts will hopefully energize students to look beyond their school syllabus and learn about space, technology as well as about amateur radio. We hope that this opportunity would serve as an educational tool how science in space could improve life on Earth. Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows: 1. How are you adapting to zero gravity? 2. When you have achieved orbit, what is the first thing that you do? 3. Do you feel day and night in space? 4. How long did you take for your journey from earth to space? 5. What was your feeling to go in space successfully? 6. How do you walk in space? 7. Is there a bathing roaster for the crew? 8. What are your feelings to be the 1st Malaysian in space? 9. What were your feelings when you were launched into space? 10. In the journey from earth to the ISS, when was the most stressful time? 11. What time zone do you observe in space? 12. Which is the largest man made object that you can see? 13. Have you seen other planets besides Earth? 14. How big is the ISS? 15. Do you see any meteoroids from the ISS? 16. How does the sun look like from the ISS? 17. Is it always dark in outer space? 18. Is it hard to sleep in space? 19. How many times in one day do you pass over Malaysia? 20. Do you have your own room in space? Information about the next scheduled ARISS contact can be found at http://www.rac.ca/ariss/upcoming.htm#NextContact . Packet is occasionally active on 145.825 simplex. Next planned event(s): 1. Malaysian Group of Schools #2 National Planetarium, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, direct via 9M2RPN Mon 2007-10-15 16:06 UTC 2. Malaysian Group of Schools #3 National Planetarium, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, direct via 9M2RPN Tue 2007-10-16 16:28 UTC 3. Malaysian Group of Schools #4 National Planetarium, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, direct via 9M2RPN Thu 2007-10-18 15:39 UTC 4. Malaysian Group of Schools #5 National Planetarium, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, direct via 9M2RPN Sat 2007-10-20 14:50 UTC ARISS is an international educational outreach program partnering the participating space agencies, NASA, Russian Space Agency, ESA, CNES, JAXA, and CSA, with the AMSAT and IARU organizations from participating countries. ARISS offers an opportunity for students to experience the excitement of Amateur Radio by talking directly with crewmembers on-board the International Space Station. Teachers, parents and communities see, first hand, how Amateur Radio and crewmembers on ISS can energize youngsters' interest in science, technology, and learning. Further information on the ARISS program is available on the website http://www.rac.ca/ariss (graciously hosted by the Radio Amateurs of Canada).

"Free software is great, and corporate America loves it. It's often high-quality stuff that can be downloaded free off the Internet and then copied at will. It's versatile - it can be customized to perform almost any large-scale computing task - and it's blessedly crash-resistant. A broad community of developers, from individuals to large companies like IBM, is constantly working to improve it and introduce new features. No wonder the business world has embraced it so enthusiastically: More than half the companies in the Fortune 500 are thought to be using the free operating system Linux in their data centers. But now there's a shadow hanging over Linux and other free software, and it's being cast by Microsoft. The Redmond behemoth asserts that one reason free software is of such high quality is that it violates more than 200 of Microsoft's patents."

JetStor® storage arrays offer real-world solutions to small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), large enterprises, state and local governments, schools and universities, and military units that need the ability to store more data in a smaller footprint than for HDD-based solutions.
The following is a partial list of JetStor storage solutions that deploy leading SAS and SATA SSD drives from SanDisk:
AC&NC brings reliable, customized, high-performance storage systems to a wide variety of businesses—offering intelligent storage solutions with embedded RAID controllers that provide redundancy and reliability to protect customer data. The company's solid-state drive (SSD)-based solutions provide high-performance storage capacity—scaling up to 480TB when used with JBODs—and are housed in a single rack.
For more than 25 years, SanDisk has been transforming digital storage with breakthrough products and ideas. SanDisk's ash memory technologies are used by many of the world's largest data centers, and are trusted by enterprises and end users around the world. From handheld devices to hyper-scale data centers, SanDisk is expanding the possibilities of ash storage.
JetStor includes SanDisk's SSDs in JetStor storage arrays due to their ability to store more data in a smaller footprint than for HDD-based solutions. When data center space is at a premium, using high-density SanDisk SSDs supports IT efficiency and delivers higher performance for most workloads.
The Challenge
Organizations today are coping with the data demands from big data, cloud computing, social media, and mobility workloads. As more IT systems are updated to support these industry megatrends, it is more vital than ever to have storage systems that keep pace with the data tsunami that is flooding many organizations. Importantly, these storage devices must manage—and protect—data throughout the data lifecycle.
The Solution
Data is at the core of the JetStor storage systems—from initial storage, to support for storage-centric workloads, to backup/restore capabilities to ensure that all data is always protected. Placing data in secure, high-performance storage systems—and managing the data throughout the entire data path—are absolutely essential to the speci cations of JetStor RAID arrays.
JetStor storage solutions address a wide range of industry– and company– specific workloads, including: Business Processing (OLTP, ERP, CRM); Decision Support; and High-Performance Computing (HPC). Among the biggest workloads addressed by JetStor systems are: Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) for centrally managed and secure virtual desktops; video production and video surveillance systems; databases; and enterprise applications.
Customized RAID-based Storage Systems: A Key Differentiator Customized storage solutions that support industry-specific or organization-specific requirements differentiate JetStor products from competitors in the marketplace. Every JetStor solution is custom-designed to meet the customer's specific application requirements, including mean time between failure (MTTF), mean time to repair (MTTR), quality of service (QoS) and high availability (HA) specifications.
Gene Leyzarovic,
Flexibility in deployment styles is also supported: JetStor storage systems offer a selection of connectivity standards, including SAN (Fibre Channel or iSCSI); SATA; SAS; or NAS connectivity with multiple host ports for parallel-path performance or clustered environments. JetStor systems engineers pre-certify the industry's best-of-class SAS, SATA and SSD drives to ensure outstanding reliability. The customization provided by JetStor supports the IT requirements of organizations that are looking for high-performance business systems at competitive prices.
"Our customers seek the capacity of SanDisk's SSDs in our JetStor arrays because they'll store more data in less space than was possible before," said Gene Leyzarovich, president of AC&NC. "Where data center space is limited, the high-density SanDisk SSDs inside our storage products support IT efficiency and deliver high performance for the most important applications and databases. For SMBs, universities, and public-service agencies, the ability to pack more data into less space is an efficient approach to IT that provides very real business value."
A case in point is the JetStor 1600S storage solution. The 16-drive capacity of the JetStor 1600S, along with additional JBODs, allows it to store a maximum of 384TB, making it suitable for enterprise-level usage. The interface that the 1600S provides allows users to easily create storage shares, to set permissions, and to check the status of RAID, the CPU (central processing unit), and to check the system temperature at a glance. The 1600S, equipped with SanDisk SSDs, saw significant performance gains when outfitted with the Optimus Eco, Optimus Ascend, and Optimus Extreme SSDs—and when con gured in RAID10 or RAID50 iSCSI.
Why SanDisk?
JetStor selected SanDisk SSDs for their versatility, capacity, and support for a broad range of industry-standard interfaces. All of these characteristics make it easier for JetStor to quickly configure a storage array with ash and to support multi-system computer rooms filled with servers from many different vendors.
Equally important is the range of software features that JetStor supplies for its ash storage solutions. AC&NC touts the ability of the new JetStor arrays to support data compression and deduplication, snapshots, thin provisioning, and unified authentication. The units are compatible with environments using VMware, Citrix Systems Xen, Microsoft Hyper-V, Unix, Windows, and Apple OS.
The Result
Scalability, reliability, and cost-effectiveness are all central to JetStor-designed storage arrays. Today's organizations have rising expectations regarding the quality of performance, availability, and reliability that are required for today's business processes. Deploying SanDisk SSDs has provided customers with a more rapid return on investment (ROI), faster IOPS (I/O operations per second), better reliability, and increased performance and speed.
Based on its long years of experience, AC&NC understands that customers' storage-based solutions must process and maintain the business- and mission-critical data that support business operations. JetStor products are guaranteed for up to five years of constant use, addressing any concerns about reliability and endurance of ash-based storage.
JetStor's selection of SanDisk as an SSD partner exemplifies its commitment to customize powerful storage systems for ever-changing data requirements. This approach to providing storage systems ensures that customers will gain the advantages of the JetStor product line's evolving functionality, as new demands for better and faster systems emerge.

Of u nu een paar eerste vragen wilt stellen of er aan toe bent om een SanDisk-oplossing te bespreken die speciaal aansluit bij de behoeften van uw organisatie, het SanDisk-verkoopteam is er om u te ondersteunen.

PEORIA — For the Morris soccer team, the dream season is over — yet the dream still lives on.
Playing for just the third time in school history in a sectional match, the Redskins were hoping to take the next step and finally get a win at that level. Despite playing a very close game with Morton at the Peoria Notre Dame Sectional on Tuesday, the locals came up shy of that goal by a 2-0 score.
"It's good to see this from our program. To see them compete at this level and to maintain this level of play going into the sectional," Morris coach Dave Valdivia said. "This is a step up for us. The step used to be to play well in the regional. Now we are setting our goal on state. I'm going to be looking forward to that as long as it takes."
Morris finishes the season with a 9-9-1 record while Morton moves on to play hosting Notre Dame. The Potters have a 12-8-3 mark.
"We expected a fight from Morris," Morton coach Derrek Drenckpohl said. "We knew we had to play 80 minutes tonight. We didn't play our best game, but we got the result. We were able to match their intensity and I'm happy with that."
Morris senior Jacob Komperda said that the Redskins gave it everything they had.
"We played with a lot of heart," he said. "I thought we played very well. Morton played with heart, too. They are a great team and they just got the best of us this time."
Morton scored in the 29th minute of the match when Drew Hodges scored off an assist from Drew Quisenberry.
"The kids have done a nice job of coming together at the right time," Drenckpohl said.
The final goal of the match came with three minutes to go when Carson Gray scored off a corner kick by Wade Rossi.
"The guys played their hearts out and there is really nothing more I can say," Valdivia said. "They battled hard ... the guys brought it. I think its safe to say that we've put Morris soccer on the map."
The Redskins did have several quality scoring chances in the contest, though Morton dominated the score sheet in shots. Kyle Monk had a header glance just wide in the 13th minute and he also booted one just over the bar with about eight minnutes to go. Ricardo Del Toro also had two quality shots in the second half in the 60th and 65th minutes, only to be denied by Morton keeper Jordan Repholz.
"If we could have gotten one of them to go in it would have been good for our spirits," Komperda said.
Morris keeper Brian Vasquez made 11 saves in the losing effort.
"I definitely feel that after this game that we are a closer group," Komperda said.

The matchup in the 103rd Rose Bowl would have seemed preposterous in late September.
That was right before No. 5 Penn State (11-2) won nine straight games and No. 9 Southern California (9-3) won eight in a row, propelling these traditional powers out of the depths of disappointing starts to the Rose Bowl on Monday.
Although both teams missed out on the College Football Playoff, a storybook ending is still possible for two teams whose comeback stories didn't start in October. Both schools have risen from years of struggles and the depths of NCAA sanctions to meet in Pasadena.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. -- The Greenville College men's cross country team used a second and third place finish of seniors Nathan Young and Ross Baker to place second of three teams at the St. Louis Forest Park XC Festival on Friday.
Young ran the six kilometer course in 20:41 to end in second place. Baker crossed the finish line six seconds later in his third place showing.
Greenville's overall score of 33 was second to NCAA Division I St. Louis' 27 point total.
Rounding out the Panther scoring was Josh Dees (8th, 21:41), Bryant Simpson (9th, 22:06), and Raymond Hingson (11th, 22:15).
Greenville returns to action Friday at Illinois State.

Religions need books because they don't have gods.
If God asked you to sacrifice/kill your son to prove your love for Him. Would you do it?
Quote from: nebula on June 16, 2013, 05:25:14 PM<snip>Ever heard of a strawman?
I wasn't making a strawman. I was stating my own view. Self consciousness is an illusion.
No. I would not believe I was hearing from god. I would seek medical attention.
Quote from: LoriPinkAngel on June 16, 2013, 06:39:40 PMNo. I would not believe I was hearing from god. I would seek medical attention.I ask you this because I respect your general honesty and willingness to answer questions even though the answers at times dont conform to your theology.Do you feel that Abraham was sick and in need of medical attention (had it been available) when he was willing to murder his son at Yahweh's request? Do you believe that Yahweh was the voice telling him to kill his son?
So God has to prove to you as being god? Funny. How about you just say "yes" then spin your bullshit reason? There's a thought.-Nam
Quote from: Lectus on June 16, 2013, 07:53:40 AMIf God asked you to sacrifice/kill your son to prove your love for Him. Would you do it?The entity who is asking me to kill my son would have to first prove he is God, and would have to explain why I would have to slay my child. For example... this being would have to show me the future and show me what will happen if my son is not killed.
Um, no. I prefer reading what people actually mean: not the edited version.-Nam
How can there be an assumption on my part if that was the initial conclusion?-Nam
But not what you actually said.-Nam
Quote from: Nam on June 16, 2013, 10:26:00 PMBut not what you actually said.-NamDamn your frustrating. It IS what I meant to include in what I said. Jeeze...
but that's not what you did; you edited it to sound less stupid (it still sounds stupid by the by).
It's not an assumption, it's an opinion. Stop using "assumption" to fit everything. -Nam

Justin.tv Not Guilty Of 'Stealing Cable' When Users Stream UFC Matches
from the good-ruling dept
The other attempt to get around safe harbors was to use the Communications Act, which has rules against "intercepting cable." Justin.tv actually suggested that Section 230's safe harbors should protect it from that claim -- which makes sense -- but the court doesn't want to touch that argument. Instead, it just says that the basic idea that Justin.tv is illegally intercepting cable doesn't make any sense -- and notes, again, that it appears to be Zuffa seeking to do an end-run around copyright law:
In essence, Zuffa alleges that Justin.tv's users copied Zuffa's UFC event and then rebroadcast the UFC event over the internet. This is not the type of conduct properly addressed by the Communications Act, but by copyright law (and, potentially, trademark law) because Justin.tv had no relationship with the original cable or satellite signal: by the allegations, Justin.tv did not receive or intercept any actual cable or satellite signal or broadcast. The Court finds no evidence in the statutory language, other cases, or legislative history that the Communications Act addresses this type of conduct or was meant to bolster or act as a separate type of copyright claim.Furthermore, as Eric Goldman highlights in the link above, there's a further footnote discussion in which the court notes that if Zuffa's "stealing cable" argument made sense, it would open up a whole host of legal issues against pretty much all cloud computing:
if the Court were to allow claims such as these, it would have to allow similar Communications Act claims against scores of "cloud computing" service providers such as Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon.com, Dropbox, Box.net, and others because Jusint.tv's [sic] particular streaming service would be irrelevant. As an example, say a person took a snippet (or longer) of video of a UFC match being broadcast on their television with their iPhone, Windows Phone, etc. The iPhone then automatically uploads that video to one of dozens of cloud storage systems such as Apple's iCloud. The Court refuses to find that Apple (or Microsoft, etc.) would be liable under the Communications Act for merely receiving and storing this data under the Communications Act. Yet, Zuffa arguesfor exactly this result when it argues that Justin.tv's mere receipt of this video stream makes Justin.tv liable. In passing the Communications Act, Congress did not intend such a result, and this Court will not broaden the effect of the statute in this manner.Nice to see a court recognize the troubling implications of such a crazy argument.

SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — Lawyers for neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman will not be allowed to question an attorney for the parents of slain Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, a judge said Friday.
Lawyers for Zimmerman, who is charged with second-degree in Martin's shooting death, wanted to question attorney Benjamin Crump. The out-spoken attorney has said he talked to Martin's girlfriend and she was on the phone with Martin in the minutes before Zimmerman shot the unarmed teenager to death on the night of Feb. 26, 2012.
Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty. He has said Martin punched him, they fought and he shot Martin in self-defense.
Zimmerman's attorneys wanted to question Crump in part to ask him about specifics on the circumstances surrounding his recording of the girlfriend, who was identified as witness eight in court.
Circuit Judge Debra S. Nelson said Crump didn't have relevant information and questioning him would violate attorney-client privilege.
Nelson also said the defense team has had 10 months to interview the witness and she, not Crump, is the only one who could provide testimony about the phone call.
Crump's attorney, Bruce Blackwell, called the motion "a side show" by the defense. Crump did not attend the hearing.
Don West, an attorney representing Zimmerman, said Crump misrepresented the woman's age as 16 when she was 18.
"She has been cloaked in mystery since the beginning of this," West said.
Also, the judge denied a request to release the addresses of Martin's parents, girlfriend and other witnesses. However, the judge said the defense could ask them for their address during depositions. The state had withheld the addresses to protect the witnesses from public scrutiny.
Following the hearing, defense attorney Mark O'Mara said Zimmerman has talked to him about the one-year anniversary of the shooting.
"He is sorry but every time we say he's sorry and traumatized by Trayvon's death, they say we're being insensitive to the Martin family," O'Mara said. "It's been a traumatic year for both parties. The anniversary will be a sign that this has been a long, long year with no resolution."

GHC on ARM
January 19, 2010
During my "Linux Kernel Modules with Haskell" tech talk I mentioned my next personal project (on my already over-full plate) would be to play with Haskell on ARM. I'm finally getting around to a little bit of playing! Step zero was to get hardware so I acquired a touchbook – feel free to ignore all the marketing on that site (though I am quite happy with it) and just understand it is the equivalent of a beagleboard with keyboard, touch-pad, touch screen, speakers, wifi, bluetooth, two batteries, more USB ports, and a custom Linux distribution.
Step 1: Get an Unregistered Build
To start its best to bypass the porting GHC instructions and steal someone elses porting effort in the form of a Debian package (actually, three debian packages). Convert them to a .tar.gz (unless you have a debian OS on your ARM system) using a handy deb2targz script. Now untar them onto your ARM system via "sudo tar xzf oneOfThePackages.tar.gz -C /" . Be sure to copy the package.conf as it seems to be missing from the .debs "sudo cp /usr/lib/ghc-6.10.4/package.conf.shipped /var/lib/ghc-6.10.4/package.conf". After all this you should have a working copy of GHC 6.10.4 – confirm that assertion by compiling some simple test programs.
I now have my copy of 6.10.4 building GHC 6.12.1. The only hitch thus far was needing to add -mlong-calls to the C options when running ./configure. With luck I will soon have an unregistered GHC 6.12.1 on my ARM netbook. I'll edit this post tomorrow with results (yes, I'm actually compiling on the ARM and not in an x86 + QEMU environment).
Step 2: Get a registered build – upstream patches
This is where things become more black-box to me. I want to make a native code generator (NCG) for GHC/ARM. There are some decent notes about the RTS at the end of the previously mentioned porting guide and there is also a (up-to-date?) page on the NCG. Hopefully this, combined with the GHC source, will be enough but I'll probably be poking my head into #ghc more often.
Step 3: Write more Haskell
The purpose of all of this was to use Haskell on my ARM system. Hopefully I'll find time to tackle some problems that non-developers will care about!

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Former San Francisco 49ers standout Bubba Paris has pleaded guilty to failing to file federal income taxes.
The U.S. Department of Justice announced Tuesday that Paris pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor charge of failing to file tax returns in 2006, 2007 and 2008 on a combined income of $182,000. Paris also agreed to pay a $126,530 fine. He faces up to a year in prison when sentenced in February.
The 52-year-old Discovery Bay, Calif., resident didn't return a phone call or an email message sent to his motivational speaking company.
The University of Michigan product was drafted in the second round of the 1982 NFL draft. He started at left tackle for eight of the nine years he played for San Francisco, which won three Super Bowls during his career.

2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class Values
Select a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class trim level
2013 model year changes
The full-size Mercedes-Benz GL-Class sport-utility vehicle gets a complete redesign for 2013, with new, more fuel-efficient turbocharged engines, additional advanced safety features and even more luxurious cabin appointments than before. The new GL-Class is offered in GL 350 BlueTec, GL 450 and GL 550 models, with a top-performance GL 63 AMG model available in early calendar-year 2013.
Competitive comparison
Tough yet luxurious styling; brawny engines; fuel-efficient BlueTec diesel; smooth ride; three usable rows of seating; leading-edge safety-tech features
Special features for 2013
The Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is a step larger and roomier than most other luxury crossovers as it has three rows of usable seating, but it does compete directly with a set of vehicles that includes the Audi Q7 and Infiniti QX56, as well as the Cadillac Escalade. Among these, the GL-Class stands out for being less truck-like in look and feel, with a more refined ride. The set of luxury features on offer in the GL is also stronger than most in this class, with some of the same advanced-tech items that wow in Mercedes' S-Class flagship. It's also a standout simply for the fuel-efficient, clean-diesel GL 350 BlueTec, which gets up to 26 mpg yet with no serious penalty in performance.
Completely redesigned for 2013, the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is a full size seven passenger luxury SUV available in GL350 BlueTEC, GL450, and GL550 trim levels. The 4WD GL350 BlueTEC is powered by a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 diesel engine producing 240 hp. Equipped with a 7-speed automatic transmission the GL350 BlueTEC achieves 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway. The GL450 and GL550 trims are available with 4.6-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engines that produce 362/429 hp, respectively. Both trims come with 4-wheel Electronic Traction System and 7-speed automatic transmission. The GL450 gets an EPA estimated 14 mpg city and 19 mpg highway while the GL550 gets a comparable 13 mpg city and 18 mpg highway. Features include blind-spot assist, illumination kit, rear seat entertainment system, and heated multi-function steering-wheel. Safety is comprised of electronic stability program, brake assist (BA), antilock brake system (ABS), rearview camera, and 13-way airbag protection. The GL-Class is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.

Dumpster Depot appeal hits Zoning Board roadblockBy HUNTER McGEE
Union Leader Correspondent
October 03. 2013 10:41PM
DERRY — An abutter's appeal to the Zoning Board of Adjustment over the proposed Dumpster Depot site reached a hurdle Thursday night but can still be heard by the board.
The board voted unanimously to refuse the appeal by state Rep. John O'Connor because it wasn't filed in time. But the board also agreed to allow O'Connor to convert the appeal from a challenge of a code enforcement decision to an appeal of the Planning Board's Aug. 21 decision to approve the site plan.
O'Connor was challenging a decision by the town's code enforcement department, alleging that it mistakenly categorized the business as a "contractor's yard."
He said the definition for a contractor's yard was repealed by the Planning Board on May 14, 2012, and deleted on June 14, 2012, by Town Council.
The board's decision means O'Connor can now include the Planning Board's decision as well as a list of people who have been affected by the decision, the board ruled. He is scheduled to go before the ZBA on Oct. 17.As part of the other conditions established by the board, O'Connor must submit evidence within 10 days of the Oct. 17 hearing and provide a list of parties as of his initial filing of the appeal on Sept. 13.

WILMINGTON, Mass. – Despite a six-year age difference, Tim Thomas and Buffalo's Ryan Miller share many things in common.
They're both from Michigan, they won a silver medal with Team USA at February's Olympics in Vancouver, they're active in making goalies' voices heard on league matters and they love to read science fiction novels.
However, heading in Monday night's probable matchup between the two American puck-stoppers at TD Garden, Thomas couldn't be coming at the game from a more different angle than Miller.
Miller, the NHL leader in save percentage, has won four of his last five outings. His Sabres are in first place in the Northeast Division and, despite a mini slump after the rigors of the Olympics, the 29-year-old has been dominant from Day One this season and is the odds-on favorite for the Vezina Trophy (with some Hart consideration mixed in).
On the other side of the rink, Thomas is riding the momentum of a shutout Saturday in his first start in a couple weeks. But Thomas, last year's leader in both save percentage and goals-against average, has had strong games before. He won his first two games out of the Olympic break, but then lost two in a row. He beat Ottawa 4-1 in January before losing two straight, and previously he beat San Jose and then lost six in a row. His longest winning streak this season is just three games.
Thomas' pursuit of a level of consistency similar to the one he reached during his Vezina-winning campaign of a year ago hasn't gone as he would like. If head coach Claude Julien follows his pattern of allowing a goaltender that earns points in the standings to get the next start, Thomas should get another chance to turn an impressive outing into a stretch of success Monday.
"I'm not even going to really dwell on that topic because I don't want to think about it," said Thomas after practice this morning at Ristuccia Arena. "If you start thinking about it, then I think it makes it more difficult. All I've got to do is go play. All I've got to do is go play the same game that I played (Saturday) when I play again. That's the way I'm going to look at it and keep it simple."
Thomas makes it a point to never look at any game as a match-up between him and the opposing goaltender. It's always Thomas vs. the other team's shooters. But that doesn't mean he doesn't watch other goaltenders, particularly on television on off nights, to check out their moves and marvel at their accomplishments.
So Miller's awesome year hasn't escaped Thomas' glance.
"He's at that age where goalies are really going to start hitting their peak, and it's showing," said Thomas about Miller, who is second to Bruins netminder in GAA. "And he's a slight-frame guy, so it probably took him a couple years to figure out what he needs to do to get his body through a long season like this and still have it somewhat intact. So far he's put that together."
While hasn't been the same suffocating netminder he was last year, Thomas has at least enjoyed good health since a brief absence earlier in the year with an undisclosed injury. That hasn't changed even with the rigors of a game like Saturday's mixing in among a long stretch of games watching from the bench.
"I haven't played a lot of games recently, so I'm not really used to coming to a practice the day after a game. (I feel) not bad at all, but just a little bit leg weary. But as far as other bumps and bruises, I got out of that game scot free," he said.
A scot-free week, in terms of goals against and injury, from Thomas would be just what the Bruins need to finish the regular season strong. And then Miller and Thomas could add "playoff goaltender 2010" to their list of similarities.

I could tell by the look on my toddler's face that he wasn't sure what all the fuss was about. His dad and grandparents were all huddled around me in my hospital bed while I held what must have appeared to him to be a red, wailing bundle of noise. Just as someone snapped a photo, he looked up from his new little brother with an expression that said, "We aren't keeping that thing, are we?"
The first grandchild on my husband's side, my eldest was occasionally treated like the second coming of the Messiah, or pretty close to it. Really, I'm surprised trumpets didn't announce his arrival at family gatherings. So when his little brother arrived, it rocked his world. He went from being the center of the universe to something more akin to Pluto.
Meanwhile, I went from tired to supertired. One way you'll know you're there with me: You change the baby's diaper twice in a matter of minutes and leave your toddler altogether diaperless. Okay, yes, I speak from experience. I discovered this mistake when I realized that my toddler was wandering around the family room with his snaps undone and fresh pee staining his jumpsuit. (I think he liked the nice breeze, though.)
Having a baby and a toddler is only half the problem, though, I discovered a few years later: These kids are going to get older, and pretty soon you have a toddler and a kid to deal with. Here's how to handle both sibling stages:
Hey, jealousy
Your toddler may feel like she's been knocked off of American Idol by some up-and-coming, no-good, talentless singer who seemed to come out of nowhere. Curb her jealousy by:
Preparing her for the new baby ahead of time. Spend time with other people's babies, read her books on how great it is to be the big sister, and talk (very excitedly) about how she will be the big kid in the family soon. Even young toddlers understand "baby." And if you can sell yours on the idea that a new baby means great stuff for her, the transition from only child to sibling will be smoother.
Showering her with gifts. Make sure your toddler gets some big-sister goodies from relatives and you when you bring the baby home. It'll not only make her feel special, it'll keep her mind off all the new-baby fuss. Who doesn't like new toys?
Never blaming any disappointments on the baby. If you admit to your toddler she can't go to the playground because the baby needs his nap, you're only fueling the jealousy fire. Instead, just tell her you'll go to the playground later, then divert her attention with something else fun (and quiet and indoors). Toddlers have a short attention span. Use it to your advantage.
Spending alone time with her. Ease her fear of displacement by reassuring her that she's still loved. My husband spent extra time with our older son while I tended to the newborn. But I also made sure my toddler and I had time alone together whenever I could, especially during the baby's morning nap. He got a lot of one-on-one time with his grandmothers as well, and, frankly, they spoiled him during the time they were together, thereby making me a little jealous.
Strike zone
Your kids are going to wallop each other over the years, but your baby is no match for a walking, whacking toddler. Prevent trouble by:
Never leaving your toddler alone with the baby. Even if he doesn't have an evil plot to harm his new little sibling, his well-meaning help (such as "feeding" the baby some of his favorite snacks) just might.
Never telling your toddler he's in charge of the baby. He's too little to babysit, and he shouldn't think he can take over for you. Thank him for handing you the soap, but don't ever say, "Ryan is in charge of the baby's bath." He might believe it.
Never laughing when your toddler hits you. Sure, that teeny little fist trying to land a blow might be pretty hilarious and worth laughing about with your husband later. But it's important to teach him he can't hit anyone, so he doesn't try to hit the baby.
Spats over stuff
When your baby becomes a toddler, no matter what the ages of her big sibs, chances are they won't want their runny-nosed, grubby-handed sis to touch their stuff. Minimize the struggles by:
Keeping dangerous and breakable items, such as older siblings' pencil sharpeners and handheld video games, out of your toddler's reach.
Putting toys that belong to siblings in separate toy boxes, closets, high shelves, or other containers.
Keeping your toddler out of her older siblings' rooms whenever possible, even if it means having them close the door.
Letting the kid who touched it first play with it first for a set amount of time before turning it over. Try using a timer -- it may help train your toddler not to stand next to the sib with the coveted item, stamping her feet and screeching.
He started it!
You're going to hear this one for a long time. You turn around as one kid clocks the other, so you punish him, and then he shouts it isn't fair because your toddler started it. Nip it in the bud by:
Having zero tolerance for pushing, hitting, and so on, even if it's the little one smacking the big one. Sternly, but calmly, warn the offender not to hit, and remove him from the room for a short time-out.
Not refereeing. Unless things are getting so heated that hitting might soon follow, stay out of your kids' conflicts and see if they can work things out for themselves. If you need to step in, there's no point in getting to the bottom of who did what (unless someone has clearly injured someone else). Just break it up and move on. If you always jump in to referee, you'll find yourself the star of your very own Judge Judy show.
Splitting them up. Remember what your mom told you: "If you can't play nicely, you can't play at all."

I'm guesing VOTC aren't really in stores anymore
I nabbed two more tonight at TRU... It seems the more remote the TRU, the better your chances of finding this figure as well... I've found fewer the closer to the city I go, but the further out, the more there are.... They're definitely still landing at that store though, as it was less than a month ago I got what I figured would be the last one at that TRU. They had more in back I guess, in a case that appears to be mixed with Yoda's and Lando's... I see no other ROTJ figures than the Stormie though.
I'd say it's very likely you missed on them... I forget the case ratios for VOTC now though, but I DO recall there definitely was one that was mostly ESB figs with some ROTJ repacks.Bummer you missed... If you can get to one further out from the city, that's my best suggestion. They seem more likely to have this stuff I've found.

Thomas Joyce, who built Knight Capital Group Inc. into one of the biggest U.S. market making firms only to see it driven to the brink of bankruptcy and then into a suitor's arms, is leaving the company.
KCG Holdings Inc., the company created when Getco LLC completed the acquisition of Knight this week, announced the resignation in an e-mailed statement. Joyce had been executive chairman. KCG named Stephen Schuler, a Getco founder, as non- executive chairman, according to the statement.
While Joyce steered Knight through a decade of growth in which revenue more than doubled, he will also be remembered for being chief executive officer when a computer malfunction caused the company to lose more than $450 million on a single day in August through erroneous trades. The Harvard College graduate was able to keep the firm out of insolvency by arranging a cash bailout a week later and in December sold Knight to Getco LLC in a deal valued at about $1.4 billion.
"He did a fabulous job," said Buzzy Geduld, chief executive officer of Cougar Trading in New York, who worked with Joyce when they were both at Merrill Lynch. "He was forced to do a deal in 48 hours or so and he navigated that in a wonderful way and a professional way. The doors opened and the company stayed in business."
Knight's computers flooded markets with unintended trades on Aug. 1, 2012, sending dozens of stocks into spasms. The fault caused shares to swing as much as 151% and left the firm with $450 million trading loss that would have sent it into bankruptcy hadn't a group of Wall Street firms bought a commensurate amount of convertible securities a week later.
Technology Mishaps
"Technology breaks," Joyce said in an Aug. 2 interview. "It ain't good. We don't look forward to it."
Getco put its chief executive officer, Daniel Coleman, in charge of the combined firm. A government filing in December showed Joyce was poised to collect a $7.5 million retention payment that would come due when Getco, the Chicago-based high- frequency trading firm, completed the deal. An employment contract was scheduled to end when the acquisition was finalized or the last day of 2014, whichever is sooner, the filing said.
The takeover by Getco ended the 17-year independence of Jersey City, New Jersey-based Knight, a company propelled by the explosion in electronic trading in American stock markets. While joining with Getco preserved Knight's listing and expanded its reach, both companies are contending with U.S. stock trading that has contracted for three straight years.

Fashion & Style
The Gilded AgeBy Sadie Stein
"Yes, there's an elevator," a worried guest was assured on Tuesday night in the lobby of the Ace Hotel. This was no small concern. The event she was on hand to attend, cohosted by Ari Seth Cohen and Tavi Gevinson, was located in the basement. And the crowd was largely over eighty.
The evening was a celebration of Ari Seth Cohen's street-style blog, Advanced Style. As the name suggests, the ladies of the silver-haired set are Cohen's muses; the site contains a mix of known fashion royalty, like Iris Apfel and Beatrix Ost, and strangers whose dashing ensembles catch the photographer's eye. It was both disconcerting and wonderful to see the parade of extravagantly dressed grandes dames enter the aggressively hip Ace, which had been rendered especially youthful by the descent of New York Fashion Week attendees.
Fashion Week parties, as anyone can tell you, are largely about exclusion: lists, velvet ropes, and stony-faced, implacable bouncers. This one was no different, but instead of models and actresses, the women being ushered to the head of the line and pursued by photographers were white-haired, turbaned, and carrying canes. Periodically, organizers scanned the crowded hotel lobby: when they spotted a hat or a caftan, the old lady in question was whisked ceremoniously downstairs to Liberty Hall.

Boston's bid to host the 2024 Olympics is over.
The city and the U.S. Olympic Committee severed ties after a board teleconference Monday, USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky told The Associated Press.
The decision throws the bid process — and hopes that the U.S. will host another Olympics — into flux. Only seven weeks remain before cities have to be officially nominated. If the USOC wants to stay in the race, Los Angeles is its likely choice.
The Boston bid soured within days of its beginning in January, beset by poor communication and an active opposition group that kept public support low. It also failed to get — and keep — the support of key politicians.

Time's End? Or a New Cycle's Beginning?
If you're nervous about numbers, the combination coming up this week could give you quite a scare. So portentous is this once-a-century triple 12 that it might — or might not — coincide with the end of the world.
Or was it 122112 when time stopped on the Mayan calendar?
Cross-cultural shaman Paul Sivert of The Shamanic Healing Institute in Savage, Maryland, puts a more positive slant on that coincidence of numbers.
"Mayans and other experts have known for a long time that the calendar, time and the world doesn't end," Sivert says. "It simply begins a new cycle."
On 121212, Sivert and a cadre of shamans and healers put their belief into action, "honoring the past and embracing new life" in an Activation Ceremony with a despacho and fire. Want to join in? Learn more at www.shamanichealing.org; 301-362-2221.
