Locks Of Love is a charity that makes wigs out of donated hair for children who have lost theirs due to cancer treatments or other medical reasons. Most people are familiar with Locks Of Love, for whom well-known hirsute people often go shorn in the name of charity and good faith. Tim McCarver, it would seem, is not one of these people. During a discussion of the previously- dreadlocked Darnell McDonald's new home on the Yankees, McCarver became stupefied by the idea a charity might actually want someone's hair, later asking "How much business does Locks of Love have?" It's a charity, Tim, they don't do "business." [FOX] Update (9:06 p.m.): McCarver later apologized:

The default really matters. Include LWP in the default distibution, include an XML parser in the default distribution, include DBI and most popular DBD functionality. Ask users what they use most commonly and include it. No, it really doesn't work to tell anybody that you can get it from CPAN. IF there is no builtin XML support, people simply think that perl doesn't have XML support. If perl doesn't come with Mailtools by default, perl doesn't support email, etc. What happens is that majority of the users are located on virtual hosting servers.

"This is Broadway" was a series of short radio interviews with Broadway luminaries conducted by Isobel Robins and Richard Seff. The interviews, produced by The League of New York Theatres and Producers (now the Broadway League), were used to promote Broadway circa 1977 and syndicated to radio stations around the country. They appear here through a collaboration between The Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing.

The Place of the Bass In 1947,George Pal made a classic puppetoon called “Tubby the Tuba,”which was the story of a tuba that wanted to go beyond oom-pahing all night and get the front- line attention given to those horns that played the melody. Dismissed as foolish by a class conscious French horn,Tubby became despondent until a bullfrog gave him the confidence to believe in his register; the tale ended with him getting the lead after showing the conductor he could croon his stuff. It was another American fable about democratic values. In the world of jazz, the Tubby issue has two sides: one good, one bad. If Tubby was in New York and left after his orchestra gig to go hear Buster Williams at the Village Vanguard some months back when he opened a set with an unaccompanied feature on “Summertime,” the puppetoon hero would have wanted to trade in his brass for lacquered wood, a bridge and four heroic strings. Williams marvelously summed up everything that has happened on his instrument since Charles Mingus,be

Rumors of Our Acquisition Were Greatly Exaggerated Various people are alternately scolding or feeling scolded about the falseness of month-ago rumors that not-yet-launched photo recognition service Riya is being acquired by Google. Relax, people. Fine, Riya wasn’t bought. And fine, the initial accounts that an acquisition was impending have turned out to be incomplete. But so what? That sort of thing — rumors of an impending acquisition that then doesn’t happen — is commonplace in the capital markets. Matter of fact, it is one of the essential information-discounting mechanisms by which markets and prices incorporate data. Sometimes that data is correct, sometimes it is incorrect. Telling people to keep quiet until they have all their info-ducks lined up does, however, show a lack of sophistication about how capital markets work. Because acquisition rumors, large and small, can play many roles. Sometimes it is the way that senior employees or investors register unhappiness with a CEO. Sometimes it is the

Location: Alternate Reality Discussion: Schrödinger's catReported This is a featured thread Showing 1 post Schrödinger's cat Feb 3 2010, 2:02 PM EST | Post edited: Feb 3 2010, 2:02 PM EST My thoughts on the season premeire was how this parallels the Schrödinger's cat experiment. As I was talking with a few of my friends, they too brought up the same experiment. For those that are not familar with the experiment, here is a brief overview: A cat is placed in a box which also has a container filled with poison. The box is closed, so you cannot see what is happening inside. It is not known if the poison container is broken. If it brakes, the cat dies, but if it doesn't, the cat lives. Because you cannot see what is inside and do not know the outcome, the cat is both dead and alive at the same time. When the box is open, only one result can occur in this reailty, but in another reality the opposite outcome happens. This is very similar to Flight 815. It both crashes and lands safely at the same time. But only

Oregon’s Dilemma: How To Measure Health? Apr 26, 2013 There are hundreds, if not thousands, of ways to track the health of a population: the average blood pressure of a large group of people, the rate of mental illness, the average weight. Epidemiologists have been collecting this kind of data for years, but now, in Oregon, there is cold, hard cash riding on these metrics. In a special experiment that is part of the health law, the Obama Administration gave Oregon almost $2 billion to come up with its own system to coordinate care better. The idea is to get doctors, nurses, hospitals and other caregivers to work together – and get paid well -- to keep people healthy and to get rid of wasteful, unnecessary care. Sarah Bartelmann of the Oregon Health Authority’s Metrics and Scoring Committee says it was hard to boil down the list. There was "a lot of discussion and the conflict was where the data would come from and if it was something the state could easily report on," she says. Oregon decided on 33 meas

Quarterback concerns Carolina Head Coach John Fox said he will start Jake Delhomme next week. Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - If you had Drew Brees, Adrian Peterson or the Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams in your starting lineup, in all likelihood you are smiling today. But what about the rest of use who struggled in Week 1. What should we be thinking about some of the ugly performances behind center which we saw on Sunday? Let's look at some of the weak quarterback results in Week 1. Nine interceptions and two fumbles in his last two games...Can Jake Delhomme really be this bad? Although Delhomme doesn't get started in a lot of leagues (less than 5% in Week 1), his favorite wide receiver, Steve Smith, is supposed to be a fantasy stud. Head Coach John Fox said he will start Delhomme next week so before I panic and try to trade Smith while his value is low, I'll see how the quarterback situation plays out. I was not impressed by either of Delhomme's backups - Josh McCown or Matt Moore. I'm n

Ready to get started?Download WordPress Tables used for layout (3 posts) 1. zdislaw Posted 4 years ago # I know that 90% or more users of this theme will never have a problem with the use of tables for layout (either practical or "theological"), but I would love to see the tables defining the sidebar layout go away in favor of divs. My reason is on the practical side (though theologically I dislike the use of tables for layout as well). Basically, I don't want to be limited to only vertical sidebars, but be able to position divs that could make up more complex layouts. For example: | header | | left | inner left | | MAIN | | right | | inner rt | | footer | This would enable me to make a more graphically complex homepage design using this template and not custom code myself out of being able to upgrade in the future.

The Unspoken Rules of Etiquette for Unisex Bathrooms 4. Do Restock the Toilet Paper We're going to go out on a limb and say that toilet paper is pretty vital to the bathroom experience. It's already awkward when you have to ask a stranger to take pity and pass some extra TP between stalls, but this weirdness could reach previously unkown levels of discomfort if you have to cross gender lines. Pay it forward for that next patron on the potty and find a way to replenish their supply. Don't leave anyone stranded: It's hard enough in there as it is. blog comments powered by Disqus

Hike in state minimum wage isn't the right total on April 09, 2013 at 5:18 PM, updated April 09, 2013 at 5:21 PM     Let’s do some math re: The recent hike in the state minimum wage.     The number of Democrats elected to the state Senate: 33.     The number of Republicans elected to the state Senate: 30.     The number of senators who said they supported raising the minimum wage right away to $9 an hour: 32. A majority.     The percentage of New York voters who supported raising the minimum wage: 80 percent. A majority of whom wanted a raise closer to $10 than to $9.     Republican voters by 2 to 1 wanted a minimum wage hike.     Then how did we come up with a minimum wage hike of only $8 an hour this year? Sen. Jeff Klein and his Independent Democratic Conference group, including Sen.

You are here Feeding a 1 yr old? I know  some of you have 1 yr olds on here, so I am curious as to what you feed your baby? when merrick was a yr old i fed him mac and cheese casserole with different cut up veggies and a little meat (when he would want to eat meat) in it, spicy ramen noodles with different veggies, crackers, chips, pretzels, if i left the fridge door open then he would get a apple and eat the whole thing. ;D  lol, the gerber graduates corn in the pouch is actually good to much on urself, dunno about the other stuff they have like that. When my son was 1 (he's 2.5 now) he was still breastfeeding so food was really still being introduced at that point, it was more about him learning how to feed himself, since he had another source of nutrition. I never fed him baby food. He ate grapes (always cut them in half!) whole grain cereals, frozen peas (which he still loves!) bread....some whole grain crackers... yep... that's pretty much it! Toddlers will eat what they need to eat and their nutrit

People of the Book Summary Extended Summary Sarajevo and Vienna, Spring 1996 At one time, Sarajevo had been a close- knit, modern enclave of Muslims, Christians, and Jews. But in 1996, the city is engulfed in civil war. Hanna Heath is a book conservator who arrives in Sarajevo during a ceasefire in the Bosnian Civil War. Every step she takes is watched over by designated United Nations and local army officials. She has never been in a war zone before and is a bit intimidated. Her tensions are somewhat eased when she is presented with the ancient Jewish Haggadah. The Haggadah had recently been rediscovered and the Sarajevo community wanted to display the book as a symbol of the city’s own survival and its multicultural and multi-religious ideal. Hannah’s task is to restore the holy book to its original state. She carefully turns the pages of this illustrated text and is amazed by what she sees. The more she examines the book, the more fascinated she becomes by its history. She wonders why Amitai Yomtov, the

What most people don't know is that this feature actually went in incomplete. I've had grand plans to finish this, but it's a biggish project and I've simply never had the time to do it. What I mean by incomplete is that the underlying framework of this feature actually involves a process internally known as a 'rendering pipeline' (or just 'pipeline'). This pipeline contains a number of rendering possibilities and it chooses one based on available information. If you've used Page Manager extensively, you've seen this before. It's called a Variant, and it lets you pick the page that's actually displayed based upon selection criteria. Typically this involves things like user access, or node type, or taxonomy term type, or other, less-used items such as user language. In most places you can put a panel, if you have the Panels IPE module there is a radio selector that lets you pick the standard renderer, or the IPE renderer. In reality, both of these are pipeline selectors. The standard renderer always select

Why Having a Pen Name Can Be a Risky Move Mask Image Having a pen name is one of the oldest traditions of being a writer. Even Homer, the famed author of the Illiad, is more of a mythical figure than a real person. Writer’s select pen names for a variety of reasons. Some feel their “real” lives might be harmed if it is known what they write, others just think a new name sounds better and still others want to try two different writing styles or subjects without interference from past works. In fact, even publishers can demand an author use a pen name, as was the case with J.K. Rowling. [Read more…] Content Freelance Writing Gigs

<I>Don't</I> Leave Them Speechless This story first appeared in the August 2002 issue of Startups. To receive the magazine, click here to subscribe. You've found a good prospect, you've grabbed their attention, and you think they are interested in what you're selling. Time to pull out your best sales presentation and then go for the close, right? I see it on a daily basis, in every industry, at every level. It happens on the telephone, in the showroom, on a customer visit or sales call and even in the boardroom. New and seasoned salespeople alike want to jump to the good part of selling--they want to wow prospects with a powerful presentation that leaves them speechless. Unfortunately, that is usually what happens: What used to be a solid prospect sits speechless, and you have nowhere to go in this sales relationship but back to your office. What started out as a promising sales call quickly grinds to a halt. Every salesperson has experienced at least one of these stalled sales calls. If you are serious a

Exclusive: Busta Rhymes Reacts To His Conglomerate Protégé Blowing Up Monday, Sep 10, 2012 2:55PM Written by Cyrus Langhorne With the buzz continuing to build around his Conglomerate protégé Reek Da Villiain, rap veteran Busta Rhymes recently spoke to SOHH about watching the emcee finally blossom into the hip-hop spotlight. In Busa Busss' opinion, he simply offered Reek an opportunity and the New York rapper cashed in by dismantling guest verses and heating up the airwaves. "I definitely feel like a proud dad or a proud big brother," Busta told SOHH when asked for his reaction to seeing Reek blow up as of late. "I think it's more like a proud big brother because Reek is an adult and he's able to make judgement calls on his own. It ain't like I've got to tell him how to do everything. You know what I'm saying? I don't feel like his father but I definitely feel like his big brother that just provided the right guidance.

Collapse pasting in R January 30, 2012 (This article was first published on The Geokook. » R, and kindly contributed to R-bloggers) How do you take a vector in R, and paste the individual elements together?  Easy, a loop.  No, bad! **slap on the wrist**  Here’s an example why not.   So let’s start by concatenating a few character strings and showing some examples using base::paste: a <- c("something", "to", "paste") [1] "something" "to" "paste"  > paste(a, sep="_")  [1] "something" "to" "paste" > paste(a, collapse="_") [1] "something_to_paste" > paste(a, sep="_", collapse="-") [1] "something-to-paste" And there we have it, a simple example demonstrating the difference between a separator expression and a collapse expression without using a hideous loop.   So finally the moral: read the help pages!

Galitzine vs. Dvorak on VoIP Tom Keating : VoIP & Gadgets Blog Tom Keating Galitzine vs. Dvorak on VoIP Uhhh, so the DSL providers are intentionally degrading their data DSL connections because they are afraid of cannibalizing their voice revenue? That's ridiculous. Not to mention most DSL providers are INCREASING their DSL speeds lately to keep up with cable providers increasing their bandwidth. The funny thing is that two years ago Dvorak posted a POSITIVE article on VoIP in 2003 titled "Free Phone Calls". In this article he mentions that he used a Cisco ATA-186 in a hotel on the road using Vonage and how he could make and receive phone calls anywhere in the world for free. Let me pull a few interesting quotes: 1) "I made a few calls. Perfect. In fact, the line was cleaner than the one I have at home. I could make unlimited calls from the hotel room. And I could receive calls as though I were at home." Ok, Dvorak two years ago the VoIP calls were perfect and now in 2005 they suck? What gives? 2) "T

He also injured three others, including his wife. The accused, Azeem Hanif Shaikh, and Aliya, were in a live-in relationship before getting married a week ago. The couple shifted from their home at Amrut Nagar in Mumbra to a single-room tenement at Shirin Villa in Kausa. Most of his in-laws occupied tenements in the same building and the couple were immediate neighbours of Aliya's aunt, Zakira Qureshi (38), and her husband Mohammed Faiyaz Anwar Qureshi (40). Police said Aliya's family was not in favour of the marriage as Shaikh did not have a steady job. Upset about their relationship, the family would never hesitate to voice their displeasure in public.

Media Approval Ratings: Craig Sager By now, the factoid that Craig Sager was one of the guys who followed Hank Aaron around the bases on his record-breaking home run has been considered unknown for so long that it's now known by everybody. (If that makes sense.) Here's something we didn't know about Sager, though: He's six-foot-four. That's, you know, taller than most people. Also, Sager is married to a former Luv-a-Bull dancer for the Chicago Bulls. Way to go, Craig! Oh, and sometimes he wears some unusual suits. The best part about this is that he never seems to believe they're all that unusual. So: Do you like the Craig Sager? Do you not like the Craig Sager? Operators are standing by.

Friday, December 9, 2011 Picking the Right Driver We are very excited to announce the availability of the fourth generation G-Series 1 VP8 hardware decoder, internally codenamed “Driver”. In this release, our focus has been on optimizing the VP8 bitstream decoder. The new architecture helps the IP run at 13% higher operating frequency allowing the decoder chips to reach higher frame rates or do multi-channel decoding more easily. At the same time, the new implementation has reduced the decoder’s logic gate count by 6% which directly cuts the production cost of each chip incorporating a WebM hardware decoder. Furthermore, the revamped design allows us to do even more optimizations for the next release. With future video requirements in mind, we designed Driver to decode up to 4k by 4k video resolutions. To make the IP evaluation easier for a chip company, the deliverables now include a bit-exact decoder C-model. This allows partners to create their own test cases for thorough performance analysis. Modern

Battle of the Year Set Visit: Director Benson Lee Interview Source: Heather Newgen May 13, 2013 Director Benson Lee talked to on the set of his new film Battle of the Year and tells us about his latest project: Q: From the beginning, were you thinking, "I've got to make a feature film too?" Benson Lee: Well, when I finished the documentary, I thought this could make a great dance feature, because I had seen all of them, in terms of the urban dance genre. I lived the drama of this event, which had pretty much like a Cinderella ending. I realized this would make for a great feature. After we premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, a lot of producers came up to me and said, "We'd like to make this a features." We went with Tripp Vinson and Beau Flynn from Contrafilm, they took it to Screen Gems, and that's where we are today. Q: Can we expect to see any of the same dancers from the documentary? Absolutely. There are definitely some of the same dancers from the documentary in the feature. Q: How did you go a

Wednesday, October 24, 2012 Missing Something on the Final Moyer He had a nice run, but Jamie Moyer's career is finally over.  Topps was nice enough to include a card of him in the Update set. Unfortunately, something is missing from the back, though.  Take a look. I don't think I've seen this before on a Topps card....incomplete career stats.  Instead of going back to his debut with the Cubs in 1986, Topps starts with his 1995 stats.  Last year they were able to squeeze in his entire career. But I guess they didn't want to go with a small font on the 2012 card.  What a shame.  The guy has a career that lasted 26 years, but Topps couldn't deviate from its template and put in his entire career.  Boo! This is Moyer's first card as a major leaguer, issued by the Cubs in 1986.  Who would have thought that his career wouldn't end until 2012.  I sure didn't. To give you a little perspective on just how long Moyer was in the majors, I've got the Mindset List from Beloit College.  Each year they put together a

Public Health Statement for Endosulfan June 2013 CAS# 115-29-7 Public Health Statement PDF PDF Version, 349 KB We define a public health statement and show how it can help you learn about endosulfan. A public health statement summarizes information about a hazardous substance. The information is taken from a toxicological profile developed by ATSDR's Division of Toxicology and Human Health Sciences (DTHHS). A toxicological profile is a thorough review of a hazardous substance. This toxicological profile examines endosulfan including the α-isomer, β-isomer, and the degradation product, endosulfan sulfate. This public health statement summarizes the DTHHS's findings on endosulfan, describes the effects of exposure to it, and describes what you can do to limit that exposure. Endosulfan at hazardous waste sites The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identifies the most serious hazardous waste sites in the nation. U.S. EPA then includes these sites the National Priorities List (NPL) and targe

Windows 8 on a MacBook Air: Beautiful and Kinda BrokenS The MacBook Air is the most beautiful piece of computing hardware you can put in front of your face. Windows 8 is arguably the most exciting software counterpart right now—sorry, Mountain Lion. So what happens when you mix? Well, maybe not what you'd hoped. Now of course, caveats aplenty here. Windows 8 is in Consumer Preview mode right now—this isn't the final plate, just a taste. What Microsoft released today is meant to be toyed with and dug around into, but not to replace your current OS. It's an unfinished product. There will be bugs. Windows 8 on a MacBook Air: Beautiful and Kinda BrokenS Apple also doesn't officially support Windows 8—fire up Boot Camp, and it'll refer only to Windows 7. Close but no cigar.

The Simplest And Most Powerful Strength And Muscle Building Strategies On The Internet... Without All The Usual Bullshit And Broscience! Is your neck hurting everytime you Squat? Are you therefore doing Squats using one of those bar pads, manta rays, or worse, wrapping a towel around the bar? If so - you're not Squatting with the bar properly positioned in your back. Think about it - how else could I Squat 400lbs wearing just a cotton t-shirt? And why do StrongLifts Members like Jake Squat well over 600lbs without using that sissy pad? Obviously, because we Squat with the bar correctly on our back. Before I show you how to master the correct bar position, you probably know that there are 2 variations of the Back Squat... • High bar aka Olympic style - the bar is higher on your traps, your torso is more upright, and you can thus Squat a lot deeper. • Low bar aka Powerlifting style - bar is lower on your upper-bar, you have a better leverage, and thus you can Squat heavier. On StrongLifts 5x5 you will

Edition: U.S. / Global MY JOB; Happy to Be Co-Pilot During Labor By JONATHAN LANZKOWSKY, M.D.; Written with Ellen Rapp. Published: June 27, 2001 Previously, I was with a managed care practice and saw as many as eight patients an hour -- about six minutes a patient. Now I see about three patients in an hour. The other day a patient came in, 38 weeks pregnant. She said, ''I'm scared.'' It takes a lot longer than six minutes to respond to that. Pregnancy is a fragile time, especially a first pregnancy. Much of what I do is offer reassurance. Almost half of my obstetric patients are over 35, and there is a lot of concern. I've gotten telephone calls late at night. I'm a new father myself, and I understand the fears. You don't really know everything is going to be O.K. until you're actually holding the baby. If my patients had access to an ultrasound machine the way I do, they would have ultrasounds every week. A specialty here is treating patients who have had multiple miscarriages. A lot of them have diffi

He’s in his mid-eighties now, but the moment he began reading from his novel, Freaky Deaky, years fell away and he was at the same his own low-life characters carrying on a hilarious dialogue about a gangster who might or might not be about to get blown up by a bomb and the writer delighting in his own words, sometimes half-chuckling at a line. During the Q&A a guy asked, “What’s the secret to good dialogue?” Leonard looked bemused. “Don’t you hear it?” he asked. “There are people all around us, talking. I listen.” Someone else asked if he knew what the end of a story would be when he started it. He said, no, he just got a couple of interesting people talking and let them go. If someone gets boring, he shoots him. About three- quarters of the way through the book, he starts thinking about how it could end. A book could end in a lot of different ways, he said.

Talk:Lists of twin towns and sister cities From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Note: this page was originally called "Twin towns", and combined a description of the concept of twinning with a list of twinning arrangements. The bulk of the editing had gone into the list, so the history is retained here, but the general description has now been split into a seperate article, Town twinning. Please note that much of the discussion below pre-dates this reorganisation, and may therefore seem not to make sense. - IMSoP 21:17, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC) Inconsistent formatting[edit] Should we add twin towns to infoboxes?

Air Apparent The great white hype: Minnesota MC Slug of Atmosphere. Slug, the primary rhymesayer behind the Minneapolis hip-hop duo Atmosphere, is feeling like something of a prognosticator these days. He predicts that once Christina Ricci listens to his song "The Bass and the Movement," from his new disc, God Loves Ugly, she'll be unable to resist his charms. On the track, he pays the plucky Pumpkin actress this tribute: "All that matters is the bass and the movement/From the top of the Fiji to the bottom of Christina Ricci." "She's going to think it's hilarious. That's my Father Guido Sarducci prediction," says the rap prince of the Twin Cities, laughing into the phone from somewhere in Los Angeles. "She's going to know me and love me. She's going to be my übergroupie. She's going to be my Winona Ryder." Female fixations are the norm for Slug, aka Sean Daley.

Flea Bites vs Bed Bug Bites – What is the Difference? Flea Bites vs Bed Bug Bites - What is the Difference?The first thing you need to do when trying to get rid of bugs is find out what you’re dealing with. This can prove to be quite difficult, as there are many different types of bugs and bug bites. Many of my visitors have asked me about the difference between flea bites vs bed bug bites when they have noticed red spots appearing on their body, typically on the arms and legs. This is the reason why I’m writing this post. I know how annoying both flea bites and bed bug bites can be. So let’s take a look at the two types of insects. You need to learn about these bugs in order to know the difference and get rid of both flea bites vs bed bug bites. Flea bites Fleas are typically found on pets like dogs and cats, but they can also be found on many other animals. They suck the blood out of the host with their special jaws that cut right through the skin. Some people are more sensitive to flea bites than others

I got a chance to look at the European release of ICO, and pretty much immediately noticed the new files SRCFILE.TXT and TRFILE.TXT. SRCFILE is the complete 'objdump -d' output of the game, with the debugging line numbers, and TRFILE is the complete linker log. Which includes these function names: This matches perfectly with all the stuff down here. I'm going to stop looking now, in case the Japanese release has Fumito Ueda's credit card numbers on it or something. I haven't suceeded in contacting anyone about this; SCEI and ONICOS/Izumo don't read their email. Someone who speaks better Japanese than me should try writing them a letter. ICO, a video game by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 2, seems to be using parts of the GPL library libarc for compressed data handling. It doesn't credit the author or mention libarc or the GPL. This isn't a big problem in terms of code — the two files from libarc used are under 1500 lines put together, and one is a heavily- edited copy of inflate.c from

New music royalty rates may cost Apple A pair of organizations representing music artists is pushing for the U.S. government to give the music industry more freedom in deciding what to charge for music, AppleInsider reports. In turn, streaming services like Apple's iTunes Radio and the newly acquired Beats Music could feel a bit of a pinch if rising prices leave too small a margin. Royalties on music are going through some growing pains at the moment, and really ever since streaming music services became the norm. Many of the current standards have been in place for decades, and long before the idea of on-demand music was even conceivable. A reworking of the laws in place is probably a good thing on all fronts, but how it could affect current streaming services remains to be seen. This article was originally published on Tuaw.

Pennsylvania High School Yearbook Features Lovely Hitler QuoteS By accident! Don't get all freaked out. It was an accident! The Easton, PA high school put the Hitler quote "And in the last analysis, success is what matters" in its 2010 yearbook, not noticing that it was a Hitlerism. Which, like, either way, it's kind of an awful quote, isn't it? "Enjoy grownupish life, kids, also: Succeed or die." The Hitlerness of it is just icing on the depressing cake. Anyway, here are some other objectionable Nazi quotes that wind up in yearbooks all the time. "Dance like nobody's watching, love like you've never been hurt" - Adolf Hitler (thanks to Max Read for digging up that one) "You don't go to college to meet your husband, you go to meet your bridesmaids!" - Joseph Goebbels "Wherever you go, go with all your heart" - Hermann Göring "Dream as if you'll live forever.

Why Obama could pass healthcare when Clinton couldn't and how Romney's business leadership would translate in the White House October 5, 2012 RSS Feed Print President Barack Obama and Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, right, campaign in swing states in August 2012. The consensus in social science is that institutional leaders rarely have a significant impact, good or bad, because they tend to go through a filtering process that's likely to produce a capable and competent candidate. In Indispensable: When Leaders Really Matter, Harvard Business School professor Gautam Mukunda explains when individuals in leadership roles do make a difference. Mukunda recently spoke with U.S. News about significant leaders, the traits embodied by the great ones, and how the presidential candidates measure up. Excerpts: When do leaders matter? When they're different from the alternatives. Leaders of big organizations are chosen pretty carefully. [Gene

Skip to content Chi-square FAIL when many cells have small expected values William Perkins, Mark Tygert, and Rachel Ward write: If a discrete probability distribution in a model being tested for goodness-of-fit is not close to uniform, then forming the Pearson χ2 statistic can involve division by nearly zero. This often leads to serious trouble in practice — even in the absence of round-off errors . . . The problem is not merely that the chi-squared statistic doesn’t have the advertised chi- squared distribution—a reference distribution can always be computed via simulation, either using the posterior predictive distribution or by conditioning on a point estimate of the cell expectations and then making a degrees-of-freedom sort of adjustment. Rather, the problem is that, when there are lots of cells with near-zero expectation, the chi-squared test is mostly noise. And this is not merely a theoretical problem. It comes up in real examples. Here’s one, taken from the classic 1992 genetics paper of Guo an

Tell me more × The distribution of sums of two squares has been studied by Landau. What is known about the distribution of the function $r(n)$, the number of representations of $n$ as the sum of two squares? Some specific questions of interest to us are these. Suppose $a \leq n\leq b$. What is the average value of $r(n)$? What is the standard deviation? Edit: Thanks for the answer and comments. I am particularly interested in the range $a\leq n\leq b$ where $b-a = \Theta(\sqrt{a})$. Let $a,b$ be like that, and let $C(n)$ be the circle of radius $n$ around a fixed center. Conjecture. The number of integers $n\in[a,b]$ with $r(n)>0$ is $\Omega(\sqrt{a})$. Furthermore, if $S$ is the segment of $C(b)$ cut off by a chord of length $\Omega(\sqrt{a})$ that touches $C(a)$ and if $r_S(n)$ is the number of lattice points in $C(n)\cap S$ then the number of integers $n\in[a,b]$ with $r_S(n)>0$ is $\Omega(\sqrt{a})$. Added: Finally, with the help of Greg Martin, I got hold of relevant literature and educated myself. T

Eureka Stockade(Dec. 3, 1854), the most celebrated rebellion in Australian history. It involved the gold prospectors of Ballarat, Victoria, and was named for the rebels’ hastily constructed fortification in the Eureka goldfield. The rebellion was the culmination of long-standing grievances on the part of the miners, or “diggers,” over exorbitant prospecting- license fees, brutal police procedures for collecting those fees, lack of the vote, and lack of representation in the Legislative Council, and a prohibition against prospecting on crown lands. While Charles J. La Trobe, the former lieutenant governor of Victoria who had introduced the license fee in 1851, pressed the Legislative Council for reform on these issues, the diggers underwent increased harassment by the police and responded with greater militancy. The murder of a digger named James Scobie in October 1854 and the acquittal of his alleged killers by a government board of inquiry further inflamed the situation. Demonstrations and clashes with the p

Tuesday, June 15, 2010 Movie Review: Ondine (2010) - 2 stars There is an odd charm to the romantic fantasy Ondine that makes it watchable for about half of its running time. Established writer-director Neil Jordan (The Crying Game) is able to work well with cinematographer Christopher Doyle to create a film of visual entrancement. The problem here is that the story never takes off and, even worse, doesn't have much of an attention- getting quality to begin with. The main character is Syracuse, an Irish fisherman played by Colin Farrell. Since his divorce, Syracuse has made good on his promise to stay sober so that he can remain a viable role model for his daughter Annie (Alison Barry), who suffers from kidney failure. He isn't a churchgoer, but he makes frequent visits the local priest (Stephen Rea) to confess his wrongdoings. He is a good man at heart, and Farrell makes him easy to like. At the start of the film, we are introduced to the title character (Alicja Bachleda), whom Syracuse inexplicably finds

Twitter Trends If you can't afford a pool, there's no better way to cool off than with the Water Soaked Knee Hockey Rink. For those who remember the Slip n' Slide, the Water Soaked Knee Hockey Rink is a way better version. Rather than just throwing your body Superman style across a thin sheet of plastic, this item actually provides a bit of exercise. Think of the rink as an oversized version of air hockey but with foamed hockey sticks and 30 nozzles that spray water onto the surface. So of course, the goal is to score the plastic puck into your opponent's net. The Water Soaked Knee Hockey Rink may be the best thing to happen to backyard toys. Definitely a must-have during the times of an intense heat-wave.

Although this tool-use behavior is widely described as the use of leaf sponges, it can actually be found in three different forms: leaf sponges, leaf- folding, and leaf spoons. Among the chimpanzee community of Bossou, we can observe all three forms, albeit in different frequencies. Here I describe the longitudinal record of manufacture and use of leaf tools for drinking water, highlighting the learning process underlying the acquisition of the skill. The degree of laterality evident in both immature and mature performers is also presented here. The use of leaves for drinking

A guide to tai chi All you need to know about tai chi, including the health benefits, the different styles of tai chi and getting started. What is tai chi? Tai chi, also called tai chi chuan, combines deep breathing and relaxation with slow and gentle movements. Originally developed as a martial art in 13th-century China, tai chi is today practised around the world as a health-promoting exercise. What are the health benefits of tai chi? While there's scope for more rigorous studies on tai chi's health benefits, studies have shown that tai chi can help people aged 65 and over to reduce stress, improve balance and general mobility, and increase muscle strength in the legs. Can tai chi help prevent having falls? Some research suggests tai chi can reduce the risk of falls among older adults who are at increased risk. However, more research is needed. Can tai chi help with arthritis? There is some evidence that tai chi can improve mobility in the ankle, hip and knee in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RH). H

Sacred Texts  Legends and Sagas  William Morris  Index  Previous  Next  Ralph Rides the Wood Under the Mountains A long way now rode Ralph, and naught befell him but the fashion of the wood. And as he rode, the heart within him was lightened that he had escaped from all the confusion and the lying of those aliens, who knew him not, nor his kindred, and yet would all use him each for his own ends: and withal he was glad that he was riding all alone upon his quest, but free, unwounded, and well weaponed. The wood was not very thick whereas he rode, so that he could see the whereabouts of the sun, and rode east as far as he could judge it. Some little victual he had with him, and he found woodland fruit ripening here and there, and eked out his bread therewith; neither did water fail him, for he rode a good way up along a woodland stream that cleft the thicket, coming down as he deemed from the mountains, and thereby he made the more way:  but at last he deemed that he must needs leave it, as it turned over

Brave woman follows robber - WBTV 3 News, Weather, Sports, and Traffic for Charlotte, NC Brave woman follows robber Posted: Updated: A brave woman sees a crime unfold. She calls 911. Then, she does what few would do. This all unfolded on a Sunday night inside the Little Cesars Pizza on South Boulevard at Archdale. From surveillance video, we see customers coming in and out. At the counter, the clerk was just handing one woman her change, when all of a sudden, a gunman rushes in. He was hooded and wearing mostly dark clothes. He was young and slim with long dreadlocks and he brandished a chrome pistol. It was a frightening sight-- so much that the clerk and the other three employees immediately bolted out the back door. "They were bunched together. They ran out the back of the store together. Luckily," said CMPD Detective Marty Cuthbertson, "the guy didn't shoot and none of those employees were hurt." In fact, this guy was too busy to shoot. He was seen punching button on the cash registers, trying to

One of the Reds' radio broadcasters has called Samuel R. LeCure "one of the best relief pitchers you've never heard of." "I don't know how many people know or don't know who I am," LeCure said. "I know how many Twitter followers I have, but I imagine there are more people than that that have seen me pitch. I guess that's a dubious honor. I guess if you are a reliever and you're doing your job, people aren't going to hear much about you. Usually people hear when you give up a home run late in the game or something like that. So I'd rather people don't know me for that reason. "I want to just go out there and do my job, just like everyone else." LeCure may be modest about it, but he is pretty darn good at what he does. Last year, the reliever posted career highs in appearances and wins and a respectable 3.14 ERA, whiffing 61 batters. LeCure has served in a host of roles for Cincinnati, coming up as a starter, then converting to the bullpen and filling in the blanks in various relief positions. He said there

• The Hollywood Reporter on LinkedIn • Follow THR on Pinterest Murdoch opens Abu Dhabi Media Summit Calls for a media market open to foreign competitors NEW YORK -- News Corp. chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch said Tuesday that the Arab world can adhere to traditions and values, while also investing in a thriving creative industry and avoiding over-regulation and hurdles that keep out foreign players. He said the Arab world -- with its 335 million people that News Corp. is betting on -- should take an approach that allows it to make its mark on the global entertainment market, but also keeps it open to companies from other countries. Opening the first-ever Abu Dhabi Media Summit, the media mogul also called for freedom of the press after media organizations faced restrictions in the United Arab Emirates last year amid critical reports, including in Murdoch-owned newspapers, about Dubai's debt woes.

About the SA Blog Network Opinion, arguments & analyses from the editors of Scientific American Observations HomeAboutContact Back off, asteroids–We’ve got nukes Email   PrintPrint A directed-energy weapon could do the job, Dearborn said, but not in the state that the technology is in today. A laser such as that at the National Ignition Facility, a nuclear fusion experiment at Lawrence Livermore, could adjust a typical asteroid’s course enough to avoid a collision—changing its velocity by about one centimeter per second—but doing so would take about 6,000 years. "I’m not saying that our children’s children won’t know a lot more than we do, and I certainly hope that they do," Dearborn said, but laser technology isn’t up to the job just yet. A non-nuclear blast—or a simple ramming mission—could also work, but those approaches would require numerous launches to match the power of a single nuclear device. Of course, nuclear weapons make many people uneasy in any context, and not everyone is on board w

Take the 2-minute tour × What is the best practice for implementing the Post/Redirect/Get pattern in ASP.NET MVC? In particular, what is the best way to do this when you want to redirect back to the initial action/controller? Here's how I am currently doing this: 1.

Wednesday, June 30, 2010 Sculpture and Cars #2 It really doesn't pay to go against your gut instincts. I HATE tatoos and piercings and low brow art. The gear shift design company wanted skulls, piercings, frankensteins and devils. You know the art, flaming eyeballs. I tried it as a test of my skills. How fast could I make something disgusting? My starting concept was a burned out, meth-addled old biker devil. An old goat. The final thing was using a dress maker pin to stand in for a pierced tongue. I was 90 minutes into creating this head for a gear shift when I realized it wasn't going to be worth finishing. I needed to spend less than half an hour on the art to make any profit at all.  Now my problem is that there's something alive about his eyes. I can't just dump him back in the smushed clay bin. Can I close his mouth and change him from old biker dude to an even older Pan? Change from cars, which have never held my interest, to the garden, which fascinates me.

POV: Stay connected through stories This article originally appeared in the August issue of Capital District Pages. An old Norwegian saying wisely tells us, “It is the duty of the present to convey the voices of the past to the ears of the future.” Once upon a summer night, a mother putting her children to bed suddenly changed course and declared there would be no bedtime book read. The mother, whisking a blanket off the bed, ordered the children to follow her. The children lined up like ducklings behind their mother, and together through the house and out the door they marched. Outside in the summer night air, the mother flung the blanket on the ground and the children instinctively sat down wondering what would come next. Without even a hint of whining, they had successfully escaped their beds and that annoying stream of light that always came through the window at summer bedtimes. As their mother began to tell them a story from a familiar fairytale, they could hardly believe their good fortune. There th

Preventing disease requires on-time vaccination for your entire family, especially for children. With that in mind, childhood vaccine schedules are developed with great care to ensure that your children are protected from diseases when they are most vulnerable and when their bodies are best able to build immune responses to the different vaccines. The immunizations you and your family members need may vary based on several factors, including age, where you live, and where you travel. However, the vast majority of children are best protected by following the CDC-AAP-AAFP’s Recommended Childhood Immunization Schedule. Below you will find the vaccines your child is recommended to receive at his or her well-child visits, listed according to the age he or she would receive the first dose. Hepatitis B vaccine The hepatitis B virus can be spread through contact with blood, saliva, body tissues, or the fluids of an infected person. Many people who contract hepatitis B never discover the source of their infection

There are about 7 million foreign residents, the largest single nationality group of whom are Turkish. Germany has been a prime destination for refugees from many developing countries, in part because its constitution long had a clause giving a 'right' to political asylum, but restrictions over the years have made it less attractive. Germany has one of the world's highest levels of education, technological development, and economic productivity. Since the end of World War II, the number of youths entering universities has more than tripled, and the trade and technical schools of the are among the world's best.

Jump to: navigation, search Blown apart Blown into prime factors Title text: Blown into prime factors [edit] Explanation The title text explains the comic. An anthropomorphic number 70 is blown into its prime factors (2, 5 and 7). Prime numbers are numbers which can not be divided by any number other than itself and 1. Factors of a number are numbers which can be multiplied together to produce that number (2x5x7 = 70). 70 has other factors, including 1, 10, 14, 35 and 70, but 2, 5 and 7 are the only factors which are prime. All other factors of 70 (other than 1) can be formed by multiplying two of the prime factors together. [edit] Transcript [A black number 70 sees a red package.] 70: hey, a package!

Hunting for Sport Isn't As Good As It is Made to Be Originally published on December 12, 2006 in The East African Standard (Nairobi) as an OP-ED. By James Isiche South_africa_hunting_webA zebra skin is hung for sale at an open-air market in Cape Town, South Africa. Few weeks ago, columnist Dr Imre Loefler called for the exclusion of NGOs from the ongoing wildlife policy review talks. This was a baffling and shocking turn-around. Last year, while still at the helm of an NGO, the East African Wildlife Society, Loefler set up a think tank comprising "experts", Government representatives, landowners and non-governmental organisations. In the same year, Loefler, who was the think tank's self-appointed chair, announced in the Society's magazine, Swara, which he used to propagate his ideologies, that its recommendations had been forwarded to the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife for evaluation and preparation of a sessional paper. This, he said, would "form the basis of discussion in amending Kenya's Wildlife
