From the brilliant mind of Ren Fetzer comes this little gem!
A spectator freely selects a card from a shuffled deck.
Next the spectator is given a "post-it" sticker to place on the selected card and then asked to sign it. The signed card is then mixed back into the deck.
The magician removes a drive-up deposit envelope from his checkbook. A note reading your interest is enclosed is removed from the envelope. Looking inside the envelope the spectator finds their signed card. Everything can be examined.
Here is an updated version of card to wallet using an ordinary checkbook.
Supplied with everything needed including special gimmick that will fit right into your checkbook.

DEAR ABBY: I am a 29-year-old man with a criminal record. I got involved in some fraud and embezzlement rings when I was in my early 20s, and served nine months before being released on parole.
Since then I have moved in with my mother, found a job, and I'm trying to be the man I know I'm capable of being. I have reached the point where I'd like to begin dating again.
The problem is, I don't know when the time is right to bring up my past. If I wait too long, my name is mud for not saying anything sooner. I want to do the right thing so I can stay on the right path. Can you help me? — A BETTER MAN IN NEW YORK
DEAR BETTER MAN: I agree that the chapter of your life in which you were in prison is not something you should reveal on a first date. But do raise the subject around the fourth date, because by then the woman will have had a chance to get to know you.
When you bring it up, make it clear that you didn't go to jail for a violent crime and you're not on any offenders' list. If she likes you, she'll hear you out and understand that you don't plan to repeat your past mistakes. Men who have served their time can go on to lead successful lives, and tell her that you plan to be one of them.
DEAR ABBY: I am blessed with two beautiful daughters. One is 13; the other is 4 months old. For 11 years my 13-year-old, "Lily," was my life. I had dated, but they were all Mr. Wrongs.
Two years ago I finally met a wonderful man, "Kevin." He is good to me, and he and Lily get along to a point, but he's shy and doesn't talk much. Kevin moved in with us a few months after I found out I was pregnant.
I try to include Lily in our new family, but she feels left out. She stays in her room and doesn't have much to do with Kevin. She wouldn't go with me to the baby's doctor appointments and pretty much ignores her new baby sister. I have told myself she'll come around, but it hasn't happened.
What can I do to assure Lily that I love her as much as I always have? I want our family to be happy. I hope to eventually marry Kevin. Lily's dad isn't very involved in her life. Every time I try to include Lily, she gets mad and says she doesn't want to do the family functions. Help, please. — WEST VIRGINIA MOM
DEAR MOM: Thirteen can be a difficult age and your work is cut out for you. You will have to be more proactive in order to make this arrangement function more like a family. Kevin may be shy, but he should be encouraged to make more of an effort to get to know Lily. As the adult, it is his job to break the ice and find something in common with her.
Also, Lily should not be allowed to hide out in her room and not participate in any activities. If you permit the status quo to continue, at some point she will start looking for a place where she feels she "belongs" in a situation beyond your control or supervision. If you are out of ideas on how to get your daughter to cooperate, then involve a family therapist to help you through the roadblocks.
Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Percy Fitzhugh
Percy Fitzhugh left this world to be with the Lord in Heaven on Tuesday, February 19, 2013.
He was born on November 12, 1925 in Malvern, Arkansas to Joseph and Effie (Paul) Fitzhugh. He grew up with his family on a farm where they produced most of what they ate. His mother died when he was young so he was raised by his dad and older siblings. He later followed his dad and sister to Bakersfield, California where he lived until 1999 when he moved to Fresno.
Having cerebral palsy from birth, Percy always dealt with many challenges in life, but with his determination and a zest for life, he lived independently and also ran a small printing business for many years. His spirited and friendly personality won over many admirers and friends wherever he went. Words that describe Percy are flirtatious, stubborn and fun loving. He will be greatly missed.
Percy is survived by his niece, Linda Pickett and husband, Don of Friant, nephews, Tom Ott of Fresno and Gene and Mike Fitzhugh of Arkansas. He was preceded by his parents Joseph and Effie, his sisters Phelma Ott Simmons, and Eunice Vaughn and brothers Obie and Vernon Fitzhugh.
The family would like to thank all the staff of the California Armenian Home for all their loving care since 2009. Their true compassion and concern for Percy touched out hearts and brought comfort and happiness to his final years.
Services will be held at the Clovis Funeral Chapel this Saturday, February 23, 2013 at 11:30 A.M. His final resting place will be Malvern Arkansas at the Damascus Cemetery next to his parents. Donations can be made to the California Armenian Home or Nancy Hinds Hospice in Fresno. Services are pending with Regency Funeral Home in Malvern. Please contact them at (501)332-8688 for further details.

ACUSHNET — Donations from local businesses are helping the Acushnet Fire Department maintain the site of the 9/11 memorial.
Fire Chief Kevin Gallagher told selectmen Dec. 17 that George and Maggie Carvalho of M.A.G. Irrigation Systems, Inc., donated a lawn irrigation system to water the site.
"The largest bill is water," the chief said of maintaining the memorial site. He said the water bill came to $1,400 this year.
Chief Gallagher said the Fire Department held fundraisers to cover the costs of the 9/11 memorial so nothing has to come from town coffers, but he said the cost of watering the lawn, especially getting it started, "proved substantial."
Maintaining the site is also being helped by another substantial donation. Chief Gallagher said Thomas Leonard of American Well & Pump has donated a well and labor at a cost no more than $5,000 to help water the site.
The chief said the department has enough funds to cover the cost.
Chief Gallagher said the well will "make us water independent," not only for the site but also extending to the fire station. For example, he said the well could be used to refill water on the pumper truck.
The 9/11 memorial came about when the Fire Department was offered a 2,700-pound steel beam from the World Trade Center, which was destroyed in the terrorist attack of Sept. 11, 2001.
The Fire Department also obtained a stone from the field in Pennsylvania where several passengers caused a plane to crash rather than let terrorists use it to hit a government building in Washington, D.C.
A third element was added when the town obtained a remnant from the Pentagon.
A professor and design students from UMass Dartmouth designed the memorial.

Emanuel Ungaro, founder of the fashion house which still bears his name, has publicly criticized Lindsay Lohan's recent collection, European newspapers report. On Monday evening, according to the Agence French Presse, the 76-year old Ungaro told an audience at the Estoril film festival in Lisbon, Portugal on Monday, that the collection on which Lohan served as fashion consultant "was a disaster." The venerable designer continued, "I'm furious but there isn't a thing I can do. I have absolutely no link with that house," added Ungaro who sold his house to an investment fund in 2005. Lohan, 23, was announced as Artistic Advisor to the house in September and, less than a month later, presented her first collection designed in collaboration with Estrella Archs, who herself had only been named as the house's designer at the end of July. At its showing in October, the Lohan/Archs collaboration was trashed by many critics, while the company itself supported their work, telling PEOPLE at the time of the designing duo, "This is a fashion couple." According to reports, Ungaro told his audience that the house which bears his name was "well on its way to "losing its soul." Ungaro explained, "This happens to a lot of designers. We were creator/owners, responsible for both the designs of the house and its destiny. But when you give up your house, we've also given up our soul." –Peter Mikelbank

MALDEF and NEA: Joint Report Aims to Improve Minority Parental Engagement in Children's Schools
LOS ANGELES, CA - MALDEF is committed to helping school officials and parents increase minority student academic achievement.
For the past year, MALDEF and the National Education Association (NEA) have worked together to refine a report that will help parents and communities across the country more easily overcome the challenges facing minority students in our schools.
We are now pleased to announce a report jointly created by our two organizations entitled "Minority Parent and Community Engagement: Best Practices and Policy Recommendations for Closing the Gaps in Student Achievement." The report aims to increase the active involvement of minority parents in their children's schools by identifying obstacles to such engagement and recommending strategies for parents, schools and communities to come together and overcome these obstacles.
Thomas A. Saenz, President and General Counsel of MALDEF, stated the following:
"Latino children are a large and increasing proportion of public school enrollment nationwide. Increased involvement of their parents -- and of the parents of children from other minority groups -- is critical to the survival and success of public schools. Through their engagement, parents become partners and champions of public education, and help to ensure that communities recognize high-quality public education as a boon to the entire nation, not just a benefit to individual children or their families."
Dennis Van Roekel, President of the National Education Association (NEA), stated the following:
"We know that when adults work together, students benefit and do better in school. But too often there are barriers - ranging from language to resources and skills - that hinder adult involvement. And too often great ideas are not shared. These obstacles are especially problematic in ethnic minority communities, where so many students are at academic risk. NEA is proud to partner with MALDEF to remove these barriers and spur new opportunities to work together for student success. We hope this guide will inspire teachers, families, and anyone involved in schools to seek new ways to collaborate so that all students can achieve their dreams."
The report is a direct result of a meeting held in October 2009 that involved over 70 parents and providers of national and community-based organizations sited across the country. MALDEF and the NEA brought these leaders together in order to address the basic right of each child, regardless of background, race, ethnicity or immigration status, to obtain a quality education.
In addition to providing best practices taken from leading educational organizations from across the U.S., the report also includes policy recommendations submitted to Congress and the U.S. Department of Education during the 2010 reauthorization process of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Many of these recommendations can be applied on a state and local level.
We encourage you to look through this report to find key strategies to increase parent engagement in schools to help ensure that minority children achieve their potential. You can access the report here.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — In the moments after last Thursday's trade deadline, when Hawks general manager Danny Ferry emerged from the team's war room without anything major to report, he laid out a reasoned plan for why the Hawks didn't do anything significant.
His explanation for not trading Josh Smith, who had been the subject of most of the biggest and best trade rumors heading into the deadline, probably sounded cliché to most.
But Ferry was just speaking the truth — as he sees it — when he made his case.
"We were in an unusual situation with Josh's contract, our cap space and flexibility going forward, having a good team right now," Ferry said. "There were a lot of factors that played into this. The main factor is we value Josh. He's been important to our group this year and we want to finish the year strong. Hopefully, we play well and we're a solid playoff team in the future."
Ferry wasn't necessarily referring to the Hawks' immediate future. But the players obviously got the message after nothing major happened on deadline day. They've won three straight since the deadline, six of their last seven games and have moved into a tie for fourth place with the Brooklyn Nets in the Eastern Conference playoff chase.
Al Horford, still smarting from not making the All-Star team, posted his career-best sixth straight game of 20 or more points (23) and grabbed a career-high tying 22 rebounds in Monday night's win over the Detroit Pistons. Smith added 23, Jeff Teague 20 and 12 assists and role players Kyle Korver (15 points) and Devin Harris (11) chipped in again with big contributions off the bench.
The Hawks are playing with the same energy that drove them earlier this season. Fueled by doubts that they would remain in the playoff mix after Joe Johnson (Brooklyn) and Marvin Williams (Utah) were traded away in the offseason, they smashed the competition early, scoring big road wins over Oklahoma City and Memphis in the first few weeks of the season.
They struggled in January as the trade rumors heated up around the same time they lost Lou Williams, the team's biggest offseason acquisition, for the season with a knee injury.
But like they have done so many times the past six seasons, the Hawks continue to do what no thinks them capable of, and that's grind away against all odds. Coach Larry Drew has done an impressive job of holding things together with a roster filled with players who are probably not in the Hawks' long-term plans.
That stubbornness/resilience is part of what makes this mismatched group so intriguing.
"We are playing with an edge," Smith told reporters after the win over the Pistons. "We are playing confident. Whenever we are playing confident like that and just having fun out there, it's fun to be a part of."
Getting Smith to buy in for the remainder of this season, and perhaps beyond, is one of Ferry's main objectives in the coming weeks and months. There were trades on the table for the Hawks, names like Paul Pierce and Amar'e Stoudemire were tossed around, but nothing that included the complete package of assets Ferry was looking for in exchange for a player he values the way he does Smith.
"You weigh everything as you make decisions with your roster and with trades," Ferry said. "I understand the media and the bloggers and the people who are NBA junkies, it was a very Josh-focused trade deadline here in Atlanta. But we talked about a lot of different things. We did a couple different things. We weighed the positives and negatives of each of our opportunities, and with our situation we felt the best decision was to stand pat, based off some of the things we were looking at."
The Hawks are looking at nothing but opportunity right now. They are two games behind the New York Knicks for the third spot in the Eastern Conference, and just 2 1/2 games behind the Indiana Pacers for No. 2. The Miami Heat have a comfortable cushion over the rest of the field.
But that No. 2 spot could very well be up for grabs over the next two months. And the Hawks should be right in the middle of that chase, provided they keep doing what they've been doing of late.

JTA's numbering breakdown listed a "Deleted Scene Rebel Trooper" which has my giddy meter high.
There are still plenty of large vehicles to tackle, in both the animation as well as the 6 movies. While the Republic Attack Shuttle is smaller (and less expensive) than the previous vehicles, the tremendous 2-in-1 play features are geared to kids. We are not ready to reveal information about a big vehicle for 2012 but there are some great candidates from Episode I.
From a recent Q&A session at Imperial Shipyards:"Yes, Episode I in 3-D allows for a number of favorite vehicles to be added to the line. Sadly, the Royal Starship and Emperor's Shuttle did not make the list. But we think fans will be pleased with the line-up which includes a 100% newly tooled iconic vehicle. We would be sharing too much information if we were to say that it is a yellow starfighter that rhymes with shampoo."

Meaning: 1. A lump or swelling. 2. A term of endearment for rabbits and, sometimes, for girls and women.
Notes: The plural of this word is bunnies. There is a rare diminutive, bunnikin, which centuries ago was used as the name of an early spring flower. The Easter Bunny is a holdover from an ancient Anglo-Saxon celebration of the goddess of spring and fertility, Eastre, from which we also derive Easter. The impressive birthrate of bunnies made them the perfect symbol for the goddess of fertility. The egg is also a symbol of birth, new life, and fertility. So Easter egg hunts are remnants of our pagan ancestry that have only recently been related to the story of the Resurrection.
In Play: The Western Indo-European languages, other than English and German, use some form of Hebrew Pesach "Passover" for "Easter": French Pâques, Portuguese Páscoa, Spanish Pascua, Italian Pasqua, Swedish Påsk, Russian Paskha. This is because the Last Supper was, according to Saints Matthew, Mark, and Luke, a seder, the special dinner held on the first day of the Jewish commemoration of Passover.
Word History: Today's Good Word should mean "a small bun", and guess what—it does! The origin of this word is Celtic bun "stump, bump", which was extended to the tail of a bunny when it was borrowed by the English. From there, it went on to name the entire rear end of the rabbit, at which point the variant bum arose. Finally, it came to refer to the entire rabbit. In the meantime, bun was borrowed by the French, who returned it some time later as bugne "boil, swelling", giving us bun in the culinary sense (not to mention bunion). The use of buns to refer to human bottoms and pastry rolls, amazingly enough, arose from the same source as bunny buns.

Free online lectures: Explore a world of ideas
Established in 1974 as the state-based affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), Mass Humanities is a programming and grant making organization that receives support from the NEH and the Massachusetts Cultural Council, as well as from private sources.
Mass Humanities regularly identifies areas of special interest or concern and develops initiatives aimed at increasing program activity in those areas. Our current thematic initiative, "Liberty and Justice for All," invites proposals for public programs that explore the interplay of these two fundamental principles of American political life. "Liberty" and "justice" may seem to be well understood philosophical touchstones of our democracy, but they yield, when examined further, significant controversy and opportunity for reflection.
Mass Humanities supports programs that use history, literature, philosophy, and the other humanities disciplines to enhance and improve civic life throughout the Commonwealth, and gives highest priority to projects that apply the humanities to current issues, deepening public understanding of these issues and thereby enhancing civic life.

Kinston residents enjoy the day in a variety of ways
Unofficially the last long weekend of summer, Labor Day is a time for many to relax and enjoy a final weekday off from school and work. Everyone has different traditions and ways to spend the weekend.
Amanda Hoover said she enjoys spending time with her husband Chris, their two kids and her parents during the holiday weekend.
The girls will go shopping and hang around the house, Hoover said. Today, the men will go out dove hunting starting at noon and won�t be back until after dark.
�At the end of the weekend, we feel refreshed,� Hoover said. �Summer is over and we feel good going into the fall.�
To Sarah Cox, Labor Day marks the last weekend of summer.
Activities include a cookout, water balloon fights and lighting up fireworks, Cox said. It is also a last chance to get any final cleaning and yard work done before the weather gets colder.
Getting out of town and going camping at Myrtle Beach is the normal course of action for Gail Paderick.
�It�s a good time to get away and relax,� Paderick said.
Joey Farmer sees the weekend in a patriotic light.
�I get together with friends and family, cook a hog and celebrate the American way,� Farmer said.
At the Archie household, Labor Day is a chance to conduct longer workouts in preparation for triathlons. Dick Archie trains with his sons, William and Wilson.
�With no school, William is able to have more time to recover from a longer workout,� Archie said. �He can still get school work and others things done, too.�
Archie said one of the days during the weekend will consist of an 85-95 mile bike ride and a 16-mile run.
According to the Kinston Public Services, trash pickup for today has been moved to Tuesday, with the rest of the week remaining on schedule.
The Lenoir County School board, which normally meets the first Monday of every month, has pushed today�s meeting to Tuesday due to the holiday. The Lenoir County Commissioners and Kinston City Council have pushed their monthly meetings to Tuesday as well.

Even at Michigan Supreme Court, State Continues to Duck Central Question of Whether Home-Based Day Care Providers Are Government Employees
In Loar v. DHS, state's meager 12-page Supreme Court brief concedes the main issue by never addressing it, notes Mackinac Center attorney
For Immediate Release
Tuesday, May 11, 2010
Contact: Patrick J. Wright
Mackinac Center Legal Foundation
MIDLAND — In a filing yesterday with the Michigan Supreme Court in the lawsuit Loar v. DHS, Mackinac Center attorney Patrick J. Wright lodged a response to a Department of Human Services brief that he later described as a "thin hodge-podge of technicalities." The filing by Wright, director of the Mackinac Center Legal Foundation, called on the Supreme Court to immediately rule in favor of the home day care business owners the Mackinac Center represents in the case.
The Center's lawsuit seeks to end the DHS' illegal diversion of so-called "union dues" from state subsidy checks that home-based day care providers receive for watching children from low-income families. The supposed "dues" are funneled to a government employee union that purports to represent more than 40,000 of Michigan's home-based day care providers, even though they are private business owners and independent contractors.
"Shockingly, the DHS has once again failed to discuss the central question in this case, namely, Are home day care providers government employees?" said Wright. "By repeatedly refusing to address the issue in its pleadings, the state has effectively waived the right to argue it any longer. We have therefore asked the Michigan Supreme Court to peremptorily reverse the Court of Appeals' decision and rule for our clients.
"In fairness," added Wright, "courts are very hesitant to rule summarily in a case that the defendants have never properly argued. Recognizing this, we've also suggested that the Supreme Court either remand the case to the Court of Appeals for a full hearing or require the DHS to write a brief that answers the central question. Either way, the DHS faces an uphill battle if it eventually claims home day care providers are public employees. On its own website, the DHS clearly tells them several times in separate places that they are not public employees."
Wright also points out that home-based day care providers were described as "independent contractors" by a lobbyist for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees in a remarkably candid e-mail recently obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. The lobbyist, who is apparently familiar with the unionization and the surrounding negotiations, also stated that the unionization effort was undertaken with the approval of the "Executive Office" — i.e., the office of Gov. Jennifer Granholm.
The DHS' filing, which never discusses the merits of the suit, calls on the Supreme Court not to hear the case. In response, Wright notes that the length of the DHS' filing — a meager 12 pages, despite an allotment of 50 — suggests the DHS has no argument to make on the merits.

Darul Arqam is a small school in the City of Blaine designed to teach Muslim children to memorize the Quran – the central religious text of the Islamic faith and believed to be the verbatim word of God, whom Muslims call Allah. That, it turns out, is one heck of a lot of memorization – nearly 600 pages – 114 chapters. Quran (or Qu'ran, or Koran, if you wish) actually means "recite" and it's the religious duty of Muslims to recite the word of Allah at will.
[By the way, it may surprise readers to know that much of the Quran incorporates some of the same Old Testament scripture assumed by Christians and Jews to be the word of their God: From Wikipedia: "…Muslims regard the Quran as the main miracle of Muhammad, the proof of his prophethood and the culmination of a series of divine messages that started with the messages revealed to Adam, regarded in Islam as the first prophet, and continued with the Scrolls of Abraham (Suhuf Ibrahim), the Tawrat (Torah) of Moses, the Zabur (Tehillim or Psalms) of David,[14][15] and the Injil (Gospels) of Jesus. – Wikipedia]
All this to say that it seems a simple matter to approve a proposal to establish a school that rarely teaches to more than 18 or 20 students at a crack. And, certainly no threat to any community. But, wait…xenophobia reigns!
Although, according to Minnesota CAIR, or the Council on American Islamic Relations, …the City of Blaine Planning Commission voted unanimously in June to approve Darul Arqam's proposal, some 25 people attending the Blaine Planning Commission meeting expressed opposition to the school:
· Some neighbors submitted a petition with 80 signatures from approximately 50 houses in the neighborhood. One speaker stated that only 3 houses did not sign the petition.
· Instead of calling it by its name or referring to it as a school in both the petition and Planning Commission meeting, opponents referred to it as a "training center." (for what – terrorism? Well, certainly!)
· The opposition questioned where the organization's funds are coming from:
o "I also am wondering...it concerns me that...they are offering this and targeting this for children, economically challenged families and a lot of their funding is donations. I don't know the ins and outs of how their organization is structured but I have some concerns about that, about how they are going to fund this."
· Fear was rampant:
o "My wife's been just terrified that somebody is going to grab her child."
o "I don't know who these people are but they have no business coming into the end of my block. Obviously, I just found out two days ago that there is a Muslim community that wants to teach Muslim to their people and they say they're not going to be a 'religious organization.' It is a religious organization, it's a church. That' my personal feelings."
o "We don't want them in our community."
This is the fifth land use opposition case involving Muslims in Minnesota within the past two years. A week later, the City Council voted 5-0 to approve the school..
If that were a completely isolated example, we'd not bother, but these incidents, as well as more violent reactions, fed by many news media, especially rightwing cable news companies or mainstream outlets who should know better, but, nevertheless, prey on such fears for profit and political expediency, have multiplied at the local and national level since 9/11.
The hysteria surrounding the attacks of September 11, 2001, have only been reinforced by other events in which those involved who consider themselves Muslim – or are "suspected" of being so – are hoisted on the petard of journalism's voracious appetite for titillation and added to the cumulative evidence that "those people" have infiltrated our culture at every level and are prepared to destroy the American Way of Life – whatever that is. Once the media gets hold of a story, the public extrapolates localized facts into badly distorted generalizations about a nation at war with The Other. Witness the ripple effect of the Boston Marathon bombings and the deranged Army major who most people claim was driven to his violent acts against fellow officers by his Islamic conviction.
What drives our need to drag everyone who looks and worships like others into a war of nerves and rejection when just one of them has been adjudged guilty of a crime, especially assaultive behavior? Why has this country come to this in the last decade: that because of the religious fervor seemingly behind the destruction of New York's World Trade Center and the assumption that religious fundamentalism elsewhere is somehow less acceptable than the same demonstrated among evangelists here and that all of Islam is dedicated irrevocably to our cultural and political destruction, not to mention murders in our beds?
TTT's ANDY DRISCOLL and MICHELLE ALIMORADI talk with representatives of our local Muslim communities (yes, that's plural) and their advocates to get their sense of what they're up against and how, like other groups of color and vilified minorities, they are forced to cope with the expressed fears – subtle and not so – as Islamic refugees and immigrants settle our area in larger and larger numbers. These include Somalis and other East Africans, Indians, Arabs, Iranians/Persians, Palestinians, Turks, Iraqis, Pakistanis, Afghans and Indonesians, among others.

Annoying Orange: Kitchen Carnage Review
Video-games, along with other media, have long since been co-opted by marketing gurus who want to cash in on their intellectual property, resulting in the much maligned 'tie-in' product. With the advent of YouTube shows becoming popular it was only a matter of time until a tie-in for one of these shows appeared and so it is with a heavy heart I dive in to Annoying Orange: Kitchen Carnage. It should be said that I do dislike the show; Orange is simply far too good at his job for me to…Watch The Video Review

Jamie Oliver's Food Escapes
One of my favorite ways to travel has always been through the kitchen — I may not get to Morocco or Sweden any time soon, but I can certainly cook like I'm there! In his latest book, Jamie Oliver packs us into his suitcase and takes us to some of his favorite food spots on the globe.
Quick Facts
• Who wrote it: Jamie Oliver
• Who published it: Hyperion
• Number of recipes: Over 100
• Recipes for right now: Patatas Bravas, Artichoke Risotto, White Polenta with Beef Involtini, Split Pea Soup, Pikeperch and Roasted Beet Salad, Sexy Swedish Buns, Kefta (Lovely Meatballs), Simple Lamb Tagine, Gigantes Plaki (Greek Baked Beans), Radish Salad with Cured Duck, Savory Chestnut Crêpes
• Other highlights: Here's where you'll be traveling in this book: Spain, Italy, Sweden, Morocco, Greece, and France. I would definitely quibble with Jamie that this is hardly "around the world" but they're definitely good picks as far as the food scene goes. Each section of the book — each trip! — is filled with lush photos of not only the food of each region, but also the people, Jamie's always-entertaining exploits (bull-fighting in Spain!), and scenes of the countryside. It's hard not to feel a slight twinge of jealousy for not actually being there.
The recipes here are in Jamie's trademark style: simple and approachable. While these meals might have roots far from your dinner table, you'll definitely have no trouble finding the ingredients or cooking them at home. To my taste, the recipes feel a bit expected: we get paella and patatas bravas in Spain, risotto in Italy, tagines in Morocco and so on. None of them really stand out to me as particularly new or surprising.
This said, it's a solid collection of recipes — if you've been looking for some ways to branch out of your comfort zone and try out some new spices, this book would make a great start.
• Who would enjoy this book? New cooks, winter-weary cooks with cabin fever

Natural Disasters - FloodsFlooding of river Main Inundations caused by heavy rain and destruction of floodplain. Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Natural Disasters - Floods
© WWF / Hartmut Jungius
For a simple and scientific explanation of floods and different types of floods, visit this link. The language is simple and the concepts are clearly explained in this site. See the diagrams to understand how the landscape changes when floods occur.
Causes of floods
To understand how floods are caused, the extent to which they can be considered as "acts of God" and how the activities of man can make floods more or less severe, read this comprehensive guide here.
It is written mainly for insurance companies, builders and other professionals and talks mostly of flooding in UK. But it is very informative as the basic facts remain the same- the change in landscape, land use, how the size of the river basin and the flood plain affects the severity of floods, and how we can prepare for floods in a flood prone area.
1998: A year of floods
One of the nature's most turbulent years was 1998. Floods wreaked havoc in North America, South America, Asia and Europe. Though the El Nino and La Nina were thought to be responsible for these floods, scientists have now found out that these factors combined with global warming caused by pollution and made the disasters more severe.
Deforestation and global warming are cited as two of the main man-made causes that led to such a disastrous year with loss of lives and huge damage. Read these reports from BBC network on some of the worst floods and the devastating effect of Hurricane Mitch - all testimonies to the result of human activity interacting with natural phenomena.
Are man-made floods possible?
A debate around the world is that nature is to blame for natural hazards while one section says that man causes or triggers these hazards by deforestation and pollution. In China, a flood affected the lives of 250 million people and caused large scale devastation and the El Nino was cited as the main cause.
But after some analysis, it has been found that it was caused by large scale deforestation leading to loose soil and therefore huge floods. Read this article to know more about this debate.
How are floods caused by man? How do man-made changes in a river basin affect floods? In Washington, floods are caused by man-made actions. The rapid urbanization of Washington has led to more concrete surfaces that seal the surface and do not allow water to seep in.
Dikes can help contain the water but they also cut off the river from the floodplain. The floodplain helps to retain some of the floodwater but cutting the river off from it means that this natural storage is gone. The consequent pressure on the environment leads to such disasters.

Rated 5 out of 5 by danicalifornia0405 from Really cute red blazer I was a little hesitant about ordering this blazer online since it was final sale, but I am happy that I did. The style is cute and the color is eye-catching. After reading the reviews, I decided to size up to a 6 for this blazer (I always wear a 4), and I am really glad that I did. It's still very form-fitting, but not too tight.
Date published: 2014-08-08
Rated 4 out of 5 by BellaItaliaFlaGatorGirl from Runs Small! If it weren't for the sizing issues, I would have given it 5 stars. Material looks and feels expensive and it's extremely versatile. I'm not a blazer girl, but this is hott with business clothes and does class up (s*x down) an outfit when you're with the parents or business associates. Bebe needs to come out with more colors, more neutrals like black/navy etc! Stupid cute but size up
Date published: 2014-07-17
Rated 5 out of 5 by KP101112 from Staple White Blazer I would have to agree with the other reviewers, this jacket runs a little small. I usually wear a size 2 in bebe's blazers, but I had to size up to a 4. The quality is great. There's also a pair of white shorts that goes nicely with this blazer!!! I highly recommend this blazer.
Date published: 2014-07-04
Rated 3 out of 5 by Ms1Sassy from Cute Blazer I loved the color of this jacket, however I thought that it ran small. I ordered the 00 and found it to be extremely snug. I have another bebe blazer in a 0 and one in a 4. I think you will definitely go a size up in this number. I am a 32ddd but the chest area fit fine, it was under the arms & shoulders that were to tight.
Date published: 2014-05-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by FloridaGirl from Stunning! This jacket is much nicer than depicted. I purchased a size 4 in white. Just wait till you get it on. I had to professionally steam the jacket myself, since it came wrinkled, but once you get it on you will be astounded. First of all, I was wearing a pair of jeans when I got it, so when I put it on, I realized that it even looked great with ripped jeans. The only reason I originally purchased this jacket is because I needed a white jacket to wear with a Herve Leger bandage dress that I own. So when I put the jacket on, I realized I could wear it almost everywhere! It's so versatile. You can wear it for many different occasions. For example, you can go from the office out to dinner, go dancing, wear it to church or temple service, or even shopping at the mall. This is an amazing jacket. It seemed to run a little small but I could still wear the size 4 that I normally take. Thanks BEBE for this amazing jacket. I have plans to wear this one a lot!

Man freed in drug lab scandal faces murder charge
BROCKTON, Mass. (AP) — Authorities say a man freed from prison last year because of alleged mishandling of evidence in a state drug lab scandal has been charged with a fatal shooting in Brockton.
Twenty-two-year-old Donta Hood was arraigned Friday on murder and gun-related charges in the fatal shooting Tuesday of 45-year-old Charles Evans. Hood pleaded not guilty and was ordered held without bail.
Hood was convicted of dealing cocaine in 2009 at a trial in which former state lab chemist Annie Dookhan testified about evidence.
Dookhan has pleaded not guilty to fabricating drug test results and lying about her academic qualifications. Authorities have said she tested drug samples involving 34,000 defendants over nine years.
Dozens of defendants whose cases she handled have been freed pending new trials.
Hood's case was dismissed in November.

Conn. chef set to feast on cicadas during invasion
NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — Connecticut chef Bun Lai is already known for his Mexican grasshopper dish and his fried rice with meal worms and crickets. But he might soon also be recognized as the cicada chef.
Lai, owner of Miya's Sushi, tells the New Haven Register (http://bit.ly/16eNZfy ) that he plans to fill a big freezer full of Brood II cicadas, once the red-eyed bugs' 17-year life cycle brings them above ground for about five weeks.
"I'm going to catch a whole bunch of them and preserve them for future eating," he said. "I plan on eating a whole bunch of them myself."
Lai said cicadas, and insects in general have great nutritional value and are "healthier for our bodies than eating meat."
He plans to feature the cicada in some theme dishes, steaming some of the bugs and boiling others, with the appropriate spices and herbs.
"I don't want to take something that's inherently nutritious and deep fry it," he explained. "If I'm going to interrupt this amazing, 17-year life cycle, I'm going to honor it and respect it."
Lai tells the Register that he sees it as a challenge to take something that's abundant and nourishing and make it appealing, not to mention tasty.
"I'm not trying to gross people out," he said. "I'm not running a frat house. I respect the cicada."

The Department distributed a draft negotiating rulemaking agenda at the December 14, 2001, meeting, which identified a number of possible "pre-negotiation consensus items." The Department felt these issues were non-controversial and thus required little discussion. During the first negotiating session, the negotiators agreed that fourteen of the issues were, indeed, "quick fix" items, and the draft regulatory language is provided here.
The approved meeting summary is also provided in accordance with Section V.A. of the Organizational Protocols.

At the first negotiating session in January, the Department provided draft regulatory language for the "quick fix" issues. Also during this first session, the negotiators discussed the remaining issues using a "workshop" approach. That is, draft regulatory language was not presented and the negotiators engaged in a broader discussion of these "non quick fix" issues. After this session, the Department prepared draft regulatory language for review and discussion at the second negotiating session. Those materials were distributed to the negotiators prior to the second session, and are provided here as well.

Bulldogs Recover from Loss to Trinity
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Saturday the No. 4 Yale men's squash team preserved its perfect record at home with a 9-0 win over No. 15 Navy. The Bulldogs conceded only three games in their nine matches, six of which were won 3-0. Yale seniors Kenneth Chan, captain Hywel Robinson and Richard Dodd played Nos. 1, 2 and 3, respectively.
The match was an important win for the Bulldogs, who took their first loss of the season Wednesday, falling to No. 2 Trinity 7-2. Referring to the match today, head coach David Talbott described his team's play as "aggressive and focused against an always competitive and tough Navy team."
With matches still remaining against No. 1 Princeton and No. 3 Harvard, Yale still has the opportunity to shake up the squash rankings before the CSA Team Championships, which will be held Feb. 22-24 in New Haven, Conn.
The Bulldogs will return to Ivy League competition next weekend, hosting No. 1 Princeton on Saturday and No. 12 Penn on Sunday.

With low or no up-front costs, solar leases are increasing in popularity among homeowners who can't afford to purchase a PV system outright or don't want the burden of ownership and maintenance. But the concept is still relatively young and not all of the kinks have been worked out.
Being able to recognize a good deal, or a bad deal, is an important part of successful solar leasing. It's all about the "fine print."
Between the Lines
So what should you look for—or look out for—in a contract? It would be due diligence to talk to your attorney and accountant before signing a lease. Alternatively, you could solicit contracts from multiple vendors and compare the verbiage (see "Before You Sign" sidebar).
Make sure you understand the type of agreement you're considering. There are different types of "leases"—some are true leases and some are power purchase agreements (PPAs). With a solar lease, you lease the solar equipment; with a solar PPA, you are only paying for the energy the system generates. In both cases, the PV system installed on your home is owned and maintained by the lease or PPA provider, and is connected to the grid so you can buy any additional energy you might need from the utility.
Your paramount concern should be whether the contract can be amended and what, if any, rights you have in those cases. There are cases where lease companies have amended the original terms and raised rates for one reason or another—if the contract allows amendments, then you might have no recourse and have to take whatever comes your way. Most contracts, even those outside of the solar market, have a clause that stipulates the contract can be transferred in certain events, such as the company's sale, bankruptcy, or dissolution. The legalese tends to be too complex for the average homeowner to understand, and the devil is in the details as to what that clause might mean for you down the line. In most cases, the PV system cannot be repossessed, and the homeowner cannot be held liable for the company's debt.
When evaluating any solar lease, keep your expectations in check. Often, the investment rate of return on buying a system outright is substantially higher. After paying for the lease payment and accounting for any extra power you might buy from the utility, the savings on a solar lease are somewhat small, usually $20 to $50 per month. However, those savings might increase over time as electricity rates rise—plus, there is the potential savings that come from having a third party monitor, maintain, and guarantee the system.
Choose Wisely
When evaluating a solar leasing company, take your time and consider all available information and choices before signing—it's a long-term relationship and by no means a small decision. Don't be pressured into signing a contract, such as being threatened by losing out on government incentives for not acting quickly.
A good starting point is the company's track record. How long has the company been in business, what kind of reputation does it have, and how many leases have they sold? Most lease companies are only a few years old. The biggest and oldest probably have made more than 10,000 leases and, in the process, worked out a lot of kinks. New leasing companies are showing up regularly, and while some of these might end up being real winners, apprehensive consumers may want to stick with more established companies.
Another factor is how long the company's program has been active in your state. Many of the larger companies have started leasing programs in one state and branched out into other states. While participation is necessary for these programs to grow and survive, you may not want to be a guinea pig for a company navigating the incentives and guidelines in a new territory. Sure, you might get a more favorable deal, but the trade-off may be long lead times on installation, potential administrative snags, and/or undeveloped customer relations. While a contract protects you, it is important to remember that it is only enforceable if you are willing to take legal action.
A key consideration in selecting your leasing company is the PV system installer they use. There are essentially three types of solar lease companies: stand-alone financing companies that partner with installers; module manufacturers that offer leases through a network of independent dealers; and full-service shops that provide everything—financing, design, installation, and monitoring.
Depending on which company you choose, you may have little control over which installer you work with. Some companies pick an installer for you, and there could be a wide range in capability. For any solar energy project, you should work with a licensed and qualified installer. Just as you would with any contractor, be thorough and ask the right questions.
• Does the installer have the required licensing for your area? (Ask for proof.)
• Which products does the company use?
• Does the installer use subcontractors, or their own installation crew?
• How long has the company been in business, and what certifications (such as "NABCEP PV Installer" certification) does its staff have?
• Can the company provide references from other homeowners?
You also should ask how the installer assesses a project and designs a system. The installer should first discuss the project and your energy needs, and then survey the roof, identify shading issues, determine the amount of energy that can be anticipated from an installation, and lastly, specify a system and lease.

Marina sets its sights high for ice fishing tournament
STANDISH TOWNSHIP — On Feb. 8 ice fishermen will pack the Saginaw Bay's frozen waters in Standish Township for an inaugural tournament hosted by Eagle Bay Marina and co-sponsored by other Saginaw-Chippewa Indian Tribe enterprises.
But the tournament may be the first and last one, since Josh Ososki, General Manager of the Marina, has bigger plans for the future than just an ice fishing tournament.
"What I want to do in upcoming years is become an ice festival," Ososki said, adding if all goes well, he hopes the event could grow to become like Perchville, held annually in Tawas, or Tip-up Town, an annual festival in Houghton Lake. "It's the winter blues. … We got to get out there and have something to do locally."
This year, however, the event will be solely a tournament. Ososki says the contest will have a $1,000 prize for first place, based on 100 entries, and pay down to tenth place. Entries will not be teams, but individuals, and fishermen will be able to hit the ice as early as they want, as long as they weigh in a five-fish stringer by 9 p.m.
And Eagle Bay will have some help with the weigh-ins.
"The Sterling Sportsmen (Association) club is getting involved with it too. They're going to do the weigh-in," Ososki said.
According to Ososki, a unique part of the tournament will be a seminar hosted at Eagle Bay the day prior to the competition. He says this will help direct novice ice fishermen how to be successful and encourage them in the tournament.
"You got guys who have never been on the ice before. We'll go over safety, baiting, everything," Ososki said. "The seminar's absolutely free."
He added vendors would also be on hand during the seminar to sell equipment. Currently, no time has been officially set for the seminar.
Ososki also says that during the tournament, an ice shanty, auger and charter fishing trips will be raffled off. He says entries will also receive free play at the Saganing Eagle's Landing Casino for tournament entrants.
The tournament is $20 to enter. For more information on the tournament, its future or the seminar the day prior, contact the Eagle Bay Marina at 989-846-6065.

oh great, homeworld's there :)
Anyway a shitton are missing (sin of a solar empire, theme park, sim city, crysis.....), the biggest one being baldur's gate.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Adella King of Indiana Tech has been named the NAIA National Women's Indoor Track Athlete of the Week and Emily Smith of Aquinas (Mich.) has been tabbed as the NAIA National Women's Indoor Field Athlete of the Week, the national office announced on Wednesday. King and Smith were selected based on their performances from Jan. 23 – 29. This week's announcement marks the first time this season the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference has been represented in the weekly award.
King, a junior from Detriot, Mich., ended the week with two individual titles and two school records, while also bettering her already NAIA automatic qualifying times in all three events she participated in at the Spire Midwest Open on Jan. 28. Her time of 24.25 in the 200-meter dash topped a field of 89 runners, including individuals from NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II and Canadian Universities, and set a new school record. She claimed her second school record and first-place finish in the 400-meter dash with a time of 56.24. King rounded out her performance at the event with a second-place finish in the 60-meter dash after clocking in at 7.52 seconds.
Smith, a junior from Port Huron, Mich., broke personal records and reached NAIA automatic qualifying status in the women's weight throw and shot put at the Calvin College Invitational on Jan. 27. Her mark of 52-2 ¾ in the weight throw and 42-5 ¼ in the shot put propelled her to individual championships in both events. With the national event qualification, Smith ranks second all-time at Aquinas in automatic qualifications in the weight throw and third all time in the shot put.

You need k-dimensional sheet to make a knot in 2*k+1 - dimensional space (if it is possible at all). And you will have troubles in spaces with even number of dimensions, your knots will either unknot by itselves (if dimensions of sheet are less than k) or be not very pleasant-looking (like knot made of wide band in 3d).
And you can use alternating k- and l- dimensional spheres to make a chain in k+l+1-dimensional space (for 4D it will be either 2-spheres and circles or 3-spheres and pairs of points)

Xpand/New And Noteworthy
Version 0.8.0
Incremental Generation
Xpand provides profiler facilities by defining a profiling component. An example workflow using the profiler is shiped with the generator sample project (generatorWithProfiler.mwe).
Further improvements
- ONFILECLOSE: The ONFILECLOSE keyword is added to the EXPAND statement and allows a derefered evaluation of the EXAND statement. The evaluation of the EXPAND statement is defefered until the FILE statement is closed.
- Java extensions: Since Xpand 0.8.0 non-static Java method can be called from Xtend.
Version 0.7.0
The 0.7.0 version of the Xpand component from M2T is the first official Eclipse release of it. Xpand is a statically typed template language, featuring polymorphic dispatch, extensions and an open pluggable type system. It comes with Eclipse-based IDE support.
Xpand has previously been a part of openArchitectureWare and is used in many big projects and also shipped with some commercial products.
For the 0.7.0 release, the team has done some major performance improvements. Not only the runtime is up to 60% faster but due to aggressive caching we were able to improve the performance of the static analysis in the IDE about 400%.
IDE features
As this is the first release at Eclipse, some of the UI-features are outlined here.
File decorations
When you open Eclipse and import a project into the workspace you can see several file decorating images.
There are specific images for
- Xpand2 templates (.xpt extension)
- Extension files (.ext extension)
- Check constraints (.chk extension)
When you double-click on one of the above mentioned file types, special editors will open that provide appropriate syntax coloring. Syntax coloring
Here are examples for the Xpand editor:
for the Extensions editor:
and for Check editor:
Code completion
The Editors provide extensive code completion support by pressing Ctrl + Space similar to what is known from the Java editor. Available types, properties, and operation, as well as extensions from .ext files will be found. The Xpand editor provides additionally support for the Xpand language statements. Xpand tag delimiter creation support.
In the Xpand editor there is an additional keystroke available to create the opening and closing tag brackets, the guillemets ("«" and "»").
Ctrl + < creates "«"
Ctrl + > creates "»"

Although the homemade soup served at lunch on a crisp fall day at Marymount of Santa Barbara is a far cry from the food that seventh- and eighth-graders ate while on a trip to Costa Rica recently, the appealing fall meal the students cooked themselves and then lined up to eat is actually all about Costa Rica.
Seventh- and eighth-grade Marymount students did a lot more than have fun on their recent trip to the Central American country of Costa Rica. Yes, the trip was full of adventure that one would hope to experience in a place like Costa Rica — river rafting, hiking, studying rainforest environments, learning about sustainable farming and zip-lining — but it was also an immersion into a new culture.
This was felt most when Marymount students spent time at Escuela El Futuro, a Costa Rican K-6 school located just outside of La Fortuna. Using the Spanish that many Marymount students have taken since kindergarten, the seventh- and eighth-graders got to know their Costa Rican peers. They spent time in their classrooms. They played games together and laughed. They also learned about some of the challenges the students at Escuela El Futuro face.
When Marymount students learned that the school they were visiting had recently received some computers but could not actually use them because of infrastructure issues, Marymount students decided to set their minds to doing what they are known for doing best: solving problems.
Wednesday's steaming bowls of hot, homemade soup have a simple goal: to raise money to build a fence and finish a building suitable for housing computers at their Costa Rican peers' school. Marymount students are in a position to know the benefits of the technology they are helping the students at El Futuro to get. Recent iPad pilot programs, multimedia classes and technology enhancements in every classroom are in full swing at Marymount.
Marymount middle school students are determined not to stop their efforts until they have met their goal and numerous small, student-organized fundraisers have happened in the weeks since the seventh- and eighth-graders have returned from Costa Rica as a result. In a larger gesture, the eighth-grade class officially designated their graduating class gift as going toward Escuela El Futuro.
"Marymount has a strong track record of fostering leadership in its students and encouraging them to come up with their own solutions to problems," said Lyn Shirvanian, head of Marymount's middle school. "The students' recent effort came out of our leadership elective and advisories. It is wonderful because not only are the students doing something good for others and thinking beyond themselves, but they are exhibiting and using 21st century skills like cross-cultural understanding, collaboration and creative problem solving in the process. An experience like this and the continuity of the connection that our students made while in Costa Rica makes the trip even more valuable for Marymount students."
Marymount is an independent coeducational school, junior kindergarten through eighth grade, on a picturesque 10-acre campus nestled on the Santa Barbara Riviera. Building on a 75-year tradition of excellence, the educators at Marymount have crafted a unique learning experience that blends mastery of core subjects with acquisition of the essential skills students need to navigate and be successful in a rapidly evolving world.
