yeast starter inept
I made a starter yesterday with 32 oz of water to just shy of one cup of DME and picthed the yeast-Wyeast Scottish ale- at 11 pm last night, at 8.30 this morning I have very minimal activity. Very minimal means almost no pretty foam on the top and almost a centimeter of sediment on the bottom. Is this normal for 9.5 hours or should I be worried. I was not worrying and homebrewing it all night but the starter apparently doesn't care. Pitched 80 deg. yeast into 80 deg wort. Help please. Thanks.

me overreacation ,yeast underreaction?
Ok, so now I've boiled up some more DME and cooled it and pitched (12 o'clock today) and it sedimented within 2 hours. It's around 80 deg. in there and while there are bubbles coming up through the wort they are not forming a foam on the top and the airlock is bubbling perhaps once a minute. I had wanted to brew today but that doesn't look like a good (possible) idea. Is this, a lost cause/overreaction/bad but saveable/within yeast norms. I just have trouble beleiving that although I saw no huge head and not lots of activity that now it is just sitting on the bottom sleeping and all that within a few hours. Is it still possible that it will go out of sedimentation and start jumping around again? Also, how do I know if a starter is contaminated, so I don't throw it into a whole batch and ruin that? I need a lower stress hobby.

Don't Worry
You don't need a lower stress hobby...just relax. As long as you followed good sanitation practices when making your starter, it'll be fine.
I've had starters throw up a huge head, and others that didn't. It just depends on the yeast strain. If you're in doubt, look at the bottom of the starter. If there's more yeast in there than what you put in, the starter worked.

Lower Stress
There is no such thing as a lower stress hobby, just a lower stress approach. Don't worry about it, I am sure your beer will turn out fine. If not, you have a perfect excuse to brew again. Make sure that you don't drive the fun out of brewing with technical details. I see that a lot in this forum. Leave the worrying for the professional brewers whose jobs depend on good beer. Good Luck.

Well, I know it was a while ago, but whatevs! I'm gonna blog about it anyway! We had a really nice 4th of July. It was sunny, and we had a restful, lazy day. I had a great yoga practice and we got our dog Stevie all doped up on doggie Xanax*. Back in the olden days, I used to be a real fan of fireworks, but now that we have Stevie in our lives, I see the whole operation in a new light. Anyhow, once she's doped up (it really helps!), we're supposed to stay home and keep an eye on her - which means no raging parties for us. (*the other two dogs don't get too upset. Scared, but no full-fledged panic)
Luckily, my awesome and wonderful parents came over here, so we still got to have a sweet little festivity and keep an eye on the pups.
Garlic Dill Pickle Sauerkraut from the farmers market (so good!!), and my mom's amazing Turkish Salad with cukes and onions and olives and white beans and everything good.
Does it even count as 4th of July if watermelon is not served? I think there is a federal law about watermelon and all summertime festivities. In the People's Democratic Republic Of Amey, there is such a law, and it is strictly enforced.
It was a really sweet dinner together, a nice quiet way to celebrate the holiday, and our little Stevie made it through the night... carried on the wings of Doggie Xanax! It's pretty much her least favorite day of the year, so it always feels like a good deal when you know it's over and won't be back for another year. :)

Italy Demands Apple Remove Joke iTunes App; Starts Legal Action Against App Author
from the humor-sensors? deptbtr1701 passes on the news of how Italy's tourism minister apparently has absolutely no sense of humor. There's an app in the Apple iTunes store for iPhones and iPads called "What Country," which summarizes every country in quick stereotypical snippets. It's meant to be amusing. For example:
Britain is characterised by "tea, weird sense of humour, football hooligans and rain", while Germany is summed up with "beer, discipline and autobahns". China is reduced to "overpopulation, kung fu, Great Wall, Tibet and tea ceremony", while the most defining characteristics of the US are "melting pot, hamburger and the American dream".As for Italy, well, it's summarized as "pizza, the Mafia and scooters." And, apparently, Italy's tourism minister, Michela Vittoria Brambilla, has such a lack of humor that she declared the app "offensive and unacceptable," demanded that Apple remove it from the store and (most ridiculous of all) is asking the state's attorney to take legal action against the author. Apparently, someone thinks it's illegal in Italy to make a joke about Italy.

So I was thinking a little on my last brinklink orders and the collectable minifigures... what pieces would I most want to see Lego make?
If this topic has already been brought up then just disregard this post.
I was thinking more on the lines of all the accessories and the animals.
Here is my list:
1.Big cats (I am surprised there hasn't been a tiger or lion to chase all those pesky adventurers milling about )
2. Gorilla (Sure we have monkeys... but do we have Gorillas? 600 pounds of chest beating fury!)
3. Wolves (We have dogs, but why not a mangy big wolf with sharp teeth?
5.Ravens and crows. (Put a little Poe in the Lego world to offset that Potter owl obsession)
6.Rhino (Adventurer kabob anyone?)
7. Hippo (Would be great in an african theme or a zoo)
8. Giraffe (Ditto)
9.Goat (More farmer livlihood)
10.Whale (Okay, maybe we should just brick build this one lol)
11.Killer Whale (Now that size is more manageable
13.Zebra (More african theme. And just make it a striped horse with a mane
14. Unicorn. (Again an easy fix and maybe not viable to make since it's so close to the horse
15. Gryphon (I say Gryphon which is a half lion half hawk and not a hippogryph from the Harry Potter sets that was half horse and half gryphon)
16. Cyclops (Maybe a small cyclops. I already made a giant moc of a cyclops for a past CC contest and it was a chore. Though maybe we just need a one eye head. Though I think they already made that with an alien set?)
17.Giant (Haven't seen any Giants around in any sets. Though to be fair I wouldn't expect this creature to be ONE GIANT PIECE! Better brick built)
18.Troll (This is an iffy one seeing as how we already have a troll line. There is just alot of definitions of Troll. And the bigger ones would be better brick built anyway)
2.Football gear? Footballs?
3..... Okay, I think I ran out of accessories. Guess I had more ideas for creatures lol
So just curious about all of your ideas.

No one likes it when colors fade, fabric wears out, and hems come undone. To keep your clothes looking as good as new, follow these tips to preserve washable and dry clean only garments. Your clothes will last longer with regular cleaning and care.
General care tips
- When changing out of your clothes, be sure to let suits, coats and shoes air out for at least 30 minutes before you store them in your closet. Hang them up on a clothes rack or on a hanger outside your closet before putting them away. Do not throw them over a chair as this can create new wrinkles.
- It's also important to rotate your sweaters and jackets like you do your shoes, to give them a chance to breathe and regain their shape.
- Turn off the closet light and don't leave garments near the window. Sunlight can fade the colors on your clothes just like it does drapes. Dyes are sensitive to prolonged sunlight or even to a light left on in a closet.
- In summer, be careful with lotions and sunscreen as it can fade or stain your clothes.
- Spray perfume and hairspray on before you get dressed. The alcohol in the spray can fade, discolor or stain clothes.
- Always clean your clothes before storing them for the season. Untreated food and beverage stains can attract insects!
- Never hang wet or damp clothes in your closet. This can attract mildew.
- Never store your clothes in plastic bags. It can trap in humidity that attracts mildew. Use breathable cotton sheets or bags.
- Brush off any salt before cleaning clothes or taking them to the dry cleaner. Salt can cause damage during cleaning. If you have come into contact with salt (e.g. pant cuffs brushing up against winter street salt), wipe with cold water and air dry. Always point salt treated areas out to your dry cleaner. Shoes are especially prone to salt damage during winter. When you come home, wipe off any salt residue with a cold damp cloth.
General tips for at-home laundering
Wash in cold water
Hot water wears out fabrics more quickly. Save the hot water for really soiled loads—kids' baseball uniforms, gardening clothes, dirty sheets—and wash everything else in cold. Even if a garment says wash in hot water, washing in cold won't hurt it (washing a cold water garment in hot, however, can be damaging). Your clothes will be just as clean, and the threads will stay strong. Check out Tide Coldwater, a specially formulated liquid detergent for cold water washing.
Invest in a front-loading washer
Most Americans use top-loading washers, which have an agitator inside that pulls your clothes around. Front-loading washers use gravity to tumble clothes in and out of the water, much like the motion of a dryer. This is much gentler on your clothes and helps prevent to prevent snags and tangling.
Wash clothes inside-out
Protect the important part of a garment—the outside—by simply turning it inside out before you toss it in. It may not seem like much, but embellishments on the outside of a garment, even screen printing, can be worn away or snagged by the inside of the washer. Items with beading, embroidery, appliqués and other details should always be washed inside-out.
Don't use chlorine bleach
Vinegar is a natural brightener that won't wear out the fibers of your clothing the way chlorine bleach will. Plus, it's better for the environment—we love that.
Air dry
Dryer heat damages fabric over time. Electric dryers cause shrinkage, color fading, and weaken the material fibers. Instead, line dry clothing outside, or indoors on a drying rack. You can also hang garments on plastic hangers in your shower or on a tension rod in an alcove. If you simply can't air dry, use the lowest heat setting on your dryer.
Follow care label directions
Most people know they should read garment care labels, but something many people forget is to read the directions on their laundry detergent too. Don't use too much—too many suds means the rinse cycle might not get all of the soap residue out of your clothing. And use the right kind—gentle detergents for delicates, and regular detergent for sturdier items.
Treat stains the right way, and right away
A spill or stain doesn't have to ruin a garment—see our "Stain Removal" section for directions on treating almost any kind of stain. Read the directions on stain removal products too, even if you have used them before. They may not be safe for every kind of fabric, or be recommended for every kind of stain.
General tips for dry-clean only clothing
Don't try it at home
If an item is labeled "dry clean only," there's a good reason for it. Don't put anything in your washing machine that doesn't belong there—it could shrink or become discolored, and the agitation from the machine will wear out the fabric faster. Don't try to remove stains on dry clean items either; professional dry cleaners know how to treat them based on the fabric and the stain.
Keep up with regular cleanings
Many garment manufacturers warn against cleaning too often—that's because traditional dry cleaning can be hard on fabric over time. GreenEarth, however, is different. Our gentle solution will not harm fabric fibers as it cleans them because unlike petrochemical dry cleaning fluid, GreenEarth is chemically inert; it does not swell or rub fabric fibers during the cleaning process, it simply carries the detergent to your clothes, and carries the dirt away without hurting the fabric itself. Regular dry cleaning with GreenEarth will actually help your clothes last longer. Solid materials left behind after perspiration evaporates can be especially damaging to the life of a garment, as can storing them without cleaning first to remove visible and invisible food and beverage stains that attract insects. Clean suits and formal dresses every 2-3 wearings to prevent dirt and oil build up that can corrode the material. In between cleanings, hanging clothes near the steam from a shower will help refresh them and allow them to keep their shape longer. Let your dry cleaner know about stains before having them cleaned. Do not try to remove stains yourself. Blot spills without rubbing and take to the cleaners as soon as possible. Attempting to remove stains from some fabrics, like silks, can cause permanent damage.
Clean before storing
Stains from seemingly clear substances like body oils, perspiration, white wine and sugary substances may not appear for some time. Once these have a chance to oxidize, they may show up as light brown or yellow splotches that are difficult to remove. Before putting away seasonal items for long-term storage, have them dry cleaned. Dry cleaning to remove visible and invisible stains before insects find them is important to prevent unexpected surprises a few months down the road.
Hang safely
Use wide, padded hangers for delicate fabrics so the material of the shoulders doesn't stretch or wear out. Don't cut hanger straps out of tops and dresses—use them to reduce stress on the rest of the garment. Hang suit jackets on wide wooden hangers to help them keep their shape. And give things room to breathe in your closet—they can touch, but don't cram them in.
Don't use plastic
Do not store clothing in plastic garment bags. The plastic breaks down over time and can interact with the fabric, which can weaken it or change the color. Plastic can also trap in humidity that can lead to mildew damage. Garments need to be able to breathe, so wrap them in plain cotton sheets or a cloth garment bag to keep them safe.

Oak–Louis Murphy 24-yard pass from JaMarcus Russell (Sebastian Janikowski kicks PAT), 8:45
SF–FG Joe Nedney 21, 1:59
— Someone explain why Jeff Garcia came in with 1:59 left to go in the half. Here's a perfect chance for Russell to run a two-minute drill in a game situation with developing wide receivers, and instead here comes Garcia, done it hundreds of times.
Garcia got the Raiders into 49ers territory before he overthrew Johnnie Lee Higgins while avoiding a rush and stepping up in the pocket, with Allen Rossum intercepting the pass.
— Joe Nedney capped a Coffee-fueled 76-yard drive with a 21-yard field goal, with Mike Singletary apparently really wanting to know his team can convert an extra point when it needs one.
Coffee gained 64 yards on nine carries on the drive, giving him 129 yards on 16 carries for the game. He opened it with a 35-yard bolt, and the Raiders didn't rise up and stop him until Sam Williams and Tommy Kelly stopped him for a three-yard loss back to the 4-yard line.
— Russell saved a seemingly wasted drive with a 24-yard touchdown strike on third-and-23 against a blown 49ers coverage. It capped a seven-play 59-yard drive with 8:45 left in the half.
Nate Clements, the same guy who intercepted three passes during one practice and was shouting, "They can't compete," was responsible. He also was the one who let the Raiders get in position for the score wtih a desperation grab of Johnnie Lee Higgins' jersey for a 22-yard penalty to the 13.
From there, the Cornell Green got an ineligible receiver downfield penalty, and Samson Satele was called for holding on an otherwise well-executed screen to Justin Fargas inside the 5.

Sonny82 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 32 diseños de 8 diseñadores freelance.
Sitepoint Market (Open to Suggestions!)
Your chance to design the "face" of the new Sitepoint.com Marketplace.
Sitepoint.com is one of the world's leading resources for web professionals. The Sitepoint marketplace is currently a trading hub for our massive community to buy & sell web goodies, outsource projects or to find freelance work.
With preparations in place to relaunch the revitalized marketplace in the coming weeks, the winning designer will quickly benefit from the huge exposure and plaudits that come with creating our fresh new marketplace look!
The homepage needs to cut thru to our Sitepoint community who are innovative, passionate and who above all push the boundaries in web design, web development and web marketing.
In excess of 50% of the target audience are web developers and web designers, with the remaining made up of CEO's, entrepreneurs, graphic designers, web masters, educators and students.
Our community are highly engaged decision makers with over 70% working on the web for more than 5 years, and approx 80% make or influence their company's decisions.
The marketplace will act as a classifieds website which is split into 3 Main Category's with associated Sub-category's:
1. For Sale - Where users can buy or exchange web products. Or users can Post an Ad of products to sell or exchange.
2. Freelance Jobs - Where Freelancers can browse web projects and submit quotes. Or users can Post an Ad of projects they would like to outsource.
3. Service Providers - Users can browse a directory of web service providers to request quotes for their projects. OR Web Service providers can Post an Ad of their service to the directory.
Our basic guidelines are:
1. Attached is our mock homepage design for you to overhaul the "top half" as outlined. The "bottom half" should remain, but you are free to update colors to match your design.
2. We want the functionality in the mock design to remain, your biggest task is the ability to convey to users quickly and simply:
- How the website is of value to the user (for both buyer & seller), moreover a "call to action" so the user is engaged in what each major category can provide them i.e more work, earn more, get work completed etc.
- Cleanly display what the Major Category's are and links to the sub category's (see mock). Feel free to change the Major Category wording to assist your design.
3. 1000px centered website, require .psd file.
Please include the following base requirements:
1. Web Banner Ad space (arrange to suit your design)
- 728 x 90 Leaderboard
- 300 x 250 Medium Rectangle
- 90px vertical space between bottom of classifieds and footer.
2. Sign Up, Login, Help header as shown in mockup
3. Search Box - open worded search box.
4. Prominent "Post an Ad" button and wording
5. We don't have a logo or brand, so feel free to add your own, a default logo or leave blank.
6. Clickable Links to Major and Sub-Category's.
7. Feel Free to Change Major Category Wording to suit your design and make it easier for users to identify what they mean / contain.
8. Feel free for the design not to be too strict to a standard look and feel. For example the Post an AD button area could be highlighted by being different in design and look.
9. Arrange all the above to suit your design.
10. If there's additional functionality which you "need" to complete your design outside of the above, please ask the question.
Essentially a workable site, but needs a face-lift and the ability for users to better identify:
- What the site contains and
- What value is this marketplace to them as a buyer or seller
Flippa.com - simplicity and the ability for users (buyers or sellers) to quickly identify what this site can do for them.
Tradingpost.com.au - friendly feel to the design and call to action for buyers and sellers. Probably over does the imagery which makes it over cluttered.
Realestate.com.au - Good use of mulitple vertical and horizontal columns to place links, news and ad space. Although over cluttered.
The new marketplace doesn't have to be "over designed" - needs to effectively convey value to the 2 types of users (buyers & sellers) and enable them to quickly identify what the website is about and which Major Category and or Sub Category can add value to them e.g:
For Sale:
- Buy, Sell or exchange a required product or service
Freelance Jobs:
- Find more work and earn more money.
- Outsource work and get more work done.
Service Providers:
- Find services to get work done.
- Advertise your services to get more work and earn more.

HUMBLE, Texas (AP) — Roger Penske said that Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin have exchanged text messages since their final-lap crash at Fontana last weekend that left Hamlin hospitalized with a fractured vertebra.
Penske said he's also sent text messages to Hamlin, who is expected to miss at least six weeks. Penske and Logano, one of his drivers, were playing in the pro-am leading up to the PGA Tour's Houston Open. Logano twice turned down interview requests.
Hamlin acknowledged he exchanged text messages with Logano.
"It didn't go well," Hamlin told The Associated Press. "The conversation was both short and unproductive."

It is no secret that there is plenty of money left on the table by average investors in securities markets around the world according to UCLA Anderson Assistant Professor Judson Caskey. Who leaves it there? Average investors who tend to ignore subjective or ambiguous factors concerning a firm's value and market price. Caskey describes this topic in a recent paper called, "Information in Equity Markets with Ambiguity-Averse Investors."
How do we know there is money left on the table? It is clearly indicated by the prevalence of firms designed to take advantage of mispriced equities, says Caskey. He cites a 2001 Journal of Accounting and Economics article in which Charles Lee referred to the African plains and stated that, "We cannot at once believe in the existence of lions, and reject the existence of the creatures that are essential to their survival."
"The specific form of mispricing I address in this paper," says Caskey, "would be when investors do not fully incorporate information that is available to them. Firms make all sorts of disclosures in their annual reports and, if investors fully impound that information, it should be reflected in the stock price so I should not be able to use a firm's 10-K to make a profitable bet. But studies have shown that you can make money. So that is what I refer to as 'mispricing.' Investors just don't fully impound information."
In an efficient market, stock prices would adjust quickly each time an annual report is issued, according to Caskey. "Within a short period after a firm releases its 10-K, investors will place bets based on what they learned from it and the firm's price will adjust in the process. The early movers will get a quick return." he says. After that, the stock should be priced correctly with no money left on the table.
But ambiguity causes the market to be less than efficient. Ambiguity arises when there's uncertainty that is purely subjective. "To give a contrast of what's objective, think about playing blackjack with a full deck of cards," says Caskey. "If you wanted to, you could compute the exact odds of getting a winning hand. So that would be objective uncertainty. Subjective uncertainty, on the other hand, might be trying to guess whether the price of a particular stock will go up or down. I can't compute the odds of winning that bet like I can with blackjack. It's going to be a subjective exercise.
"Let's say a company's income is higher this year than last," he continues. "Usually that's a good signal. But suppose you dig into the footnotes in their annual report and find out it's because they slashed their advertising. What do you do with that information? On the one hand, the cut in advertising could reflect efficiency, which would be good. Or this could cause their customer base to erode, which would be bad. This is a subjective situation in which some people aren't going to be comfortable making a bet."
Faced with ambiguity, Caskey believes that many investors rely on incomplete information such as earnings or price/earnings ratio. "They revert to more simple rules for their investment decisions," he says. "Ambiguity-averse investors in my model effectively say, 'I don't know what to do with the full set of information in the financial statements and footnotes, so I'll just base my investment decisions on a simple number like net income.' As a result, the stock price fails to impound all of the available information, which leaves money on the table for people who are more willing to act on their subjective judgments."
Caskey points out that there are varying degrees of subjectivity in the stock market. Life insurance firms, for example, are based on extensive data concerning life expectancy. "But think about firms developing a new medical treatment," he says, "This could lead to a cure-all or it could do nothing. It's highly subjective."
Talking about how ambiguity affects institutions, Caskey notes that the insurance market for marine shipments was highly subjective in the 16th century. "Insurance was expensive because you didn't know if a sea monster was going to gobble up your ship," he says. With time, risk became more objective since you could better quantify the chance of having a shipwreck or other mishap.
Caskey says that the ability to make investment decisions using subjective information is a crucial quality in an investment professional. "My guess is that if you're ambiguity-averse, you're probably not going to become a fund manager," he says. "If you are ambiguity-averse and all the information you have about a stock is subjective, that will make you nervous and cause you to place smaller bets. It's like risk where some people just have the stomach for it."
He says that ambiguity-aversion has been tied to the notion of home country bias among investors. "People in most of the developed world have their stock portfolios far overweighted in domestic stocks," he says. "There is risk in the U.S. economy, but few Americans diversify that risk away by buying non-U.S. stocks. It's the same in Japan, France and Germany and so forth. Other research suggests that this may be because investors perceive other countries' stock as having a lot more subjective risk."
But Caskey cautions that mispricing can be caused by factors other than ambiguity. "There are other forces out there that are not in my model," he says. "Consider the Internet bubble. People were willing to invest based on very subjective information."
Should firms make an effort to be less ambiguous in their financial reporting? "Firms could make their disclosures easier to interpret," says Caskey. "Everything should be tied to value. So, in the advertising example I gave, the firm should be clear about how the cut in advertising might impact future sales. This could help avoid conflicting interpretations. My model also suggests that efforts to require firms to expand disclosures may have a limited impact on prices. Investors may choose to simply ignore the information."
But he feels there are limits to how much a firm can control ambiguity. "Some aspects of markets are just inherently subjective," he says.

USU Alum Lars Peter Hansen Named 2013 Nobel Economics Laureate
Monday, Oct. 14, 2013
Utah State University alum Lars Peter Hansen is one of three Americans named today as a recipient of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Economics. Hansen and Eugene Fama, both of the University of Chicago, along with Robert Shiller of Yale University, were recognized for their groundbreaking research on the workings of financial markets, asset prices and behavioral economics.
A Cache Valley native, Hansen earned bachelor's degrees in mathematics and political science with a minor in economics from USU in 1974. He is son of the late R. Gaurth Hansen, renowned biochemist and former USU provost, and longtime USU supporter Anna Lou Rees Hansen, who resides in St. George, Utah.
"First and foremost our congratulations go to Lars," said USU President Stan L. Albrecht. "We are delighted he has received such a distinguished honor. Lars is a world-renowned researcher and scholar, obviously, but the USU community also gets to remember him as an exceptional undergraduate student who always was destined for success."
USU awarded Hansen an Honorary Degree in 2012.
According to the Nobel committee, Hansen, Fama and Shiller's work "laid the foundation for the current understanding of asset prices" and sounded warnings for the most recent turn-of-the-century's dot.com and housing bubbles.
"We are excited that Lars has received this well-deserved recognition," said James MacMahon, dean of USU's College of Science, which houses the university's Department of Mathematics and Statistics. "We've followed his many accomplishments through the years and appreciated his faithful support of his alma mater."
In 2009, USU's Huntsman School of Business honored Hansen with a Professional Achievement Award, given by the school to recognize individuals who achieve extraordinary success in their careers and demonstrate uncommon leadership in their communities.
Huntsman School of Business dean Douglas Anderson is a former classmate of Hansen.
"Lars is one of the deepest thinkers I have ever met," said Anderson. "He was genuinely curious about the way the world works, and not satisfied with simple-minded answers."
Hansen's professional achievements are many. He is a 2011 recipient of the Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Economics, Finance and Management and a 2008 recipient of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group-Mathematical Sciences Research Institute Prize in Innovative Quantitative Applications.
Bartell Jensen, a USU emeriti professor of economics and mathematics, taught Hansen as an undergraduate. Reflecting on Hansen's days as a student, Jensen said he was a delight and that he was a rare and stunning intellectual.
"I am very proud of Lars," said Jensen. "His career has blossomed, but he hasn't let it go to his head. He is an exceptionally humble and personable individual."
Bill Furlong, professor of political science in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences recalls Hansen as "a gem of a student."
"He'd sometimes challenge his professors and faculty members," Furlong said. "He'd really make us think about our positions and I always really appreciated having him in my class."
Hansen is a member of the National Academy of Science and American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a fellow of the Econometric Society and a fellow of the American Finance Association. He is a former John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellow and a Sloan Foundation Fellow.
Hansen received the 2006 Erwin Plein Nemmers Prize in Economics from Northwestern University, a 1998 UChicago Faculty Award for Excellence in Graduate Teaching and, in 1984, was co-winner of the Frisch Medal from the Econometric Society.
He and his wife, Dr. Grace Tsiang, are the parents of a son, Peter.
He joined the University of Chicago in 1981, where he currently serves as the David Rockefeller Distinguished Service Professor in Economics and Statistics and is the inaugural Research Director for the Becker-Friedman Institute.

Cathalijne and Suzanneken Claes (d. 1573)
Cathalijne (Calleken) and Suzanneken Claes, Anabaptist martyrs, the daughters of Lieven,who was put to death at Ghent, Belgium, on 27 September 1549. They had been baptized at Ghent in the spring of 1572 by the bishop Paulus van Meenen. Both were unmarried; Suzanne was 25, Calleken 24 years old; they were living in Ghent. First they were imprisoned in the city prison, and after the inquisitors had vainly tried to make them renounce their faith, they were burned at the stake on the Vrijdagsmarkt on 3 December 1573 (van Braght says 4 December). Before the execution took place a ball was put in their mouths, preventing them from speaking to the people who had assembled to watch the execution. Calleken is called Calleken Draeyarts by van Braght in the Martyrs Mirror; this name was not found, however, by Dr. Verheyden, who studied the official documents.

By Daniel B. Kopans, MD
Mammography screening is one of the most important advances in women's health in the past 50 years. Since annual screening began, the death rate from breast cancer has decreased by more than 30 percent.
Prior to 1990 the death rate from breast cancer had been unchanged for more than 50 years. Mammography screening began, at a national level, in the mid 1980s, and soon after, the death rate began to drop. Since 1990, the death rate has decreased by more than 30 percent.
Although advances in therapy have been important, studies in the Netherlands and Sweden show that most of the decline in deaths has been due to earlier detection afforded by mammography screening. Therapy only saves lives when cancers are found early.
Unfortunately, this undeniable success continues to be clouded by misinformation arising from inappropriate data analyses. Such confusion can do real harm if it dissuades woman from availing themselves of annual screening mammography.
A controversy that erupted last year over whether screening should begin at age 40 or 50 is one example (see the sidebar, "Screening mammography facts"). More recently, a "viral" email claiming a connection between mammography and rising thyroid cancer rates has alarmed many women.
A recent episode of The Dr. Oz Show focusing on this issue pointed out (correctly) that the incidence of thyroid cancers has been increasing among women over the past 30 years.
The host of the show, Mehmet Oz, MD, attributed radiation exposures during dental x-rays and mammograms as possibly contributing to this increase. This was unfortunate since there is absolutely no evidence that mammograms have anything to do with the increase in thyroid cancers.
Here are the facts:
The bottom line: There is no risk to the thyroid during a mammogram, and a shield can actually compromise optimal imaging. Shields are available for patients who insist on having them. But women must be aware that using one not only confers no benefit in terms of thyroid cancer prevention, but may in fact compromise the mammogram and its lifesaving benefits.
Daniel B. Kopans is a Senior Radiologist in the Breast Imaging Division at Massachusetts General Hospital Imaging and Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School.

text: February 25, 2000 - Connecticut Voters Say 2-1 Skakel Trial Should Be Open, Quinnipiac College Poll Finds; Most Want Reporters In Court, But Not TV Cameras By a 2 - 1 margin, Connecticut voters who have heard or read about the trial of Michael Skakel, charged in the 1975 death of Martha Moxley, say the trial should be open to the public, according to a Quinnipiac College Poll released today. Eighty-nine percent of Connecticut voters say they have heard or read something about the trial. Of that group, 60 percent say the trial should be open to the public, while 32 percent say it should be closed. Those who know about the case say 68 - 26 percent that newspaper reporters should be allowed in the courtroom. These same people who know of the case say 63 - 32 percent that television cameras should not be allowed in the courtroom for this case. "The fact that 89 percent of the people polled recalled reading or hearing something about the trial seems to confirm what the media have known all along, that this trial is a big news story," said William Dunlap, a professor in the Quinnipiac College School of Law. "More than twice as many people think this trial in juvenile court should be open to the public than think it should be closed. Do those who want it open think that juvenile proceedings in general should be open to the public? Or are they recognizing that this is not a typical juvenile case, and that the reasons for protecting juvenile defendants from the glare of publicity do not necessarily apply when the defendant is 39 years old and already well known to the public?" "It is interesting that twice as many people favor admitting newspaper reporters as favor excluding them, but the figures are reversed for television cameras -- twice as many favor excluding them. Since almost everyone who favors admitting cameras would also favor admitting reporters, it means that one-third of the public makes a distinction and favors admitting reporters but excluding cameras," Dunlap said. "This must mean that they believe the public is entitled to the information, to know what is going on in the courtroom, but that cameras are somehow too intrusive in the judicial process. I suspect that this goes back to the O.J. Simpson criminal trial, where lawyers and witnesses on both sides were suspected of playing to the cameras in an effort to shape public opinion, instead of focusing exclusively on decision makers in the courtroom. Many judges have expressed similar grave concerns about the ability of courtroom cameras not just to report but to affect what happens in the courtroom." From February 9 - 15, Quinnipiac College surveyed 1,365 Connecticut voters, with a margin of error of +/- 2.7 percent. The Quinnipiac College Poll conducts public opinion surveys in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut as a public service and for research. For additional data -- www.quinnipiac.edu 43. Have you heard or read anything about the trial of Michael Skakel, charged in the 1975 murder of Greenwich teen Martha Moxley? Tot Yes 89% No 10 DK/NA 1 44. (If heard about trial) Skakel, now 39 years old, is currently having his case heard in juvenile court because he was 15 at the time Martha Moxley was killed. Juvenile court proceedings are ordinarily closed to the public. Do you think the public should or should not be allowed in the courtroom for this case? Heard about trial Should be 60% Should not be 32 DK/NA 7 45. (If heard about trial) Do you think newspaper reporters should or should not be allowed in the courtroom for this case? Heard about trial Should be 68% Should not be 26 DK/NA 5 46. (If heard about trial) Do you think television cameras should or should not be allowed in the courtroom for this case? Heard about trial Should be 32% Should not be 63 DK/NA 5

Innovation In Retail: The Informed Shopper Is A Happier Shopper
from the information-is-king deptThis post is part of an Intel-sponsored series of posts we'll be doing here at Techdirt on the topic of innovation. The series consists of a video interview of myself (which you'll see below), the post, and another video interview with an Intel representative and others. That second video, obviously, is content from Intel, but my video and what I've written here was done with complete and total editorial independence. We hope you enjoy the content and take part in the overall discussion.
In some ways, many people think that the world of physical retail is "over." It's been killed off by online retail. In fact, I recently heard someone refer to the challenge faced by a large brick-and-mortar retailer as "having to do more than be Amazon's showroom." But there are some interesting opportunities coming. First up, here's a brief video of me discussing the possibilities:
In some ways, this is already happening via smartphones. The fact that people can access all sorts of content via their smartphones means that some of that information is already there. But the next challenge will be for retailers themselves to provide more value through realtime information as well. The challenge is in making sure that information is really what's useful to the consumer, and not just useful to the retailer. The temptation will be to provide limited and/or biased information to push people into buying as soon as possible (and possibly the most expensive item). But unbiased and fair information can build up trust, and trust can make a buying decision much easier.
Beyond just the obvious stuff of providing the same kind of online information (reviews/specs/videos) to people in a store, let's take things a step further. Imagine a kind of open API that allows for others to provide additional information about a product. If you're buying vegetables, imagine an API that lets you easily find suggested recipes for those vegetables -- which could also check with a listing of what you already have at home and/or the store you're in and other nearby stores, to figure out how to buy whatever else you need.
For years, we've heard of retailers dreaming up the ability to text message you with a coupon as you walked by a store -- but that's an idea that's likely to piss off plenty of people, if they don't want such things. But imagine a system that lets you let stores within a certain area bid for your business. You want a cup of coffee? Set a radius, put the coffee shops you dislike on a blacklist, determine a weighting of price vs. distance vs. taste -- and see who offers the best deal.
As with pretty much anything these days, the real disruption, and the real innovation, come in making the consumers' lives significantly better in ways they didn't expect. The tools that will work and the tools that will wow are the ones that aren't so much focused on just improving retailers, but in making the consumers' lives improve. The end result, of course, for retailers who implement such systems will likely be improved bottom lines as well, but if they're just focused on improving their bottom lines without taking the consumers' viewpoint into account, it's unlikely they'll be all that successful.
Along those lines, the real lasting benefits for retailers may come from something as simple as connecting people to other people. One of the issues I've had with buying things in the past is the uncertainty of whether or not the product is right for what I need. I recently installed a new dishwasher and it required both some new tools and some new materials. I actually ended up watching some videos online before heading down to the store to pick up things, but even then I wasn't entirely sure what I was buying was what I actually needed (turned out, it wasn't, and I ended up making two additional trips that day to the store to buy/return things). While I had asked the one random store employee I found wandering among the aisles, they weren't really sure. But imagine if, from within the store, I could explain the job, take a quick picture of certain items, and reach out to a community of experts on the subject who could let me know if I really had the right tools for the job or not.
Similarly, when I ran into problems with the install, what if various retailers could tell me what I was doing wrong/missing -- and bid for my business with a complete package of everything I needed. Best package deal -- ready and waiting for me next time I came in? Sold!
In the end, what it comes down to is that by providing more information for the consumer, allowing them to better connect and improve the overall process, you improve the whole experience. Taking the guesswork, hassle or inconvenience out of shopping can be a huge win for retailers who want to compete against the online world by offering more immediacy, more information and a better overall experience.

Trailside honored by French government
November 6, 2012
Trailside Elementary School Principal Kathy Einhorn was standing near the Salt Lake City International Airport baggage claim holding a sign that read "Bonjour Fabien!" That was more than a year ago, the day Einhorn met the new, French dual-immersion teacher Fabien Beaufils, who would be working with first graders at the school.
Since then, the school has received a major accolade for its dual-immersion program. Trailside Elementary School was selected by the French Ministry of Education as one of 17 schools recognized for its French language instruction. Schools on the list were from as far away as Australia, the Czech Republic and Chili, but seven of the 17 schools recognized came from Utah. And one school, Trailside Elementary School, is from Park City.
"I studied French in high school and college," Einhorn said, "so I can understands what goes on in the classes. But students learning a new language this way, they will be so far ahead of where I was after seven years studying French. "These students will be able to take Advanced Placement tests for college credit, or continue studying the language into college, or even pick up third language, which will be much easier for them after they have mastered a second language."
The program had only been around for a semester when French Ministry representatives paid Trailside Elementary School a visit, inspecting the program and what it covered. the end of the school year, Einhorn was informed that the school had won the accolade, the FrancEducation Label, but admitted she was not sure exactly what it meant.
"I didn't know much about what it meant," she said, " We know now, it's quite the distinction from the French government that says we have a high quality program in our school."
"It is an honor for Trailside to receive this recognition," she added. "It speaks volumes about the quality of Trailside and the entire school district."

Each of the 17 schools offer more than just French language. Each school teaches history and culture as part of building new language skills. French Ministry of Education representatives grading the schools considered more than the quality of the immersion program, including the overall school program, classroom instruction, specialists programs and extra-curricular activities.
"Last year, my class established contacts with my old school in France," Beaufils said. "We had pen pals and that was my way of getting them to know other kids in another region, to motivate them to write in French."
With the new label, Einhorn will also be traveling to France, a trip paid for by the French government, at the end of the month for a conference that will include the principals of all 17 schools. She plans to use the opportunity to talk about other successes and applications of dual-immersion techniques in Trailside Elementary School.
A French-native, Beaufils was originally appointed by the state and had a teaching background in his home country. When originally selected to pilot the dual-immersion program for first graders, Beaufils was only allowed a visa for one year, but since receiving the FrancEducation Label, Beaufils can stay in the country for up to three years.
"(These students) have a French teacher," Beaufils said. "If they didn't learn about France that would be bad. I tell them a lot about France: how are the people, what are things they could see and visit. It would be a shame if I didn't talk about my country."
"Every time I know someone speaks French, or friend in town, have them come into the class," he added.
Beaufils brought his parents into the classroom when they visited. He talks about his hometown, a ski town like Park City. He even remembers talking about the history and structure of the Eifel Tower after a student mentioned they saw the reproduction in Las Vegas.
"I think it is great that we were awarded this for our participated in spreading French culture and the French language," Beaufils said. "These kids will be ambassadors."
