Art Competition Finds the Beauty in Science

Transparent worms show off DNA and RNA in bright colors
A new art competition at Princeton University is aimed at scientists, not art majors.  Researchers and scientists are challenged to record and submit examples of the beauty inherent in various natural and experimental phenomena to the "Art of Science" contest, where three winners are chosen by a professional jury and an additional three via public voting.

Hunter Communications Original News Source:

Link to article:
Excerpt: "Science isn't just about collecting data and making charts and graphs. Experiments often produce moments of inspiring beauty: A dye dropped into water gives the impression of a green flame erupting from a murky black sea. Boring black cobalt oxide becomes brilliant blue when heated to 800 degrees Celsius. And an image of coral takes on a different character when two eyes suddenly peer out from its center.
The Art of Science competition at Princeton University challenges scientists to record the sometimes fleeting moments when science becomes art. This year's competition drew 170 entries from 24 departments throughout the university; a jury selected three winners, and three additional entries were chosen by viewers.
Here are a few of our favorites from among the entries, with captions written by the artists ... er, scientists."

Happy Blogoversary to Me!!

It's that time again, people!!  2 years ago this month I started this blog. (yeah...disregard the 1 on the cupcakes...I jacked the picture from somewhere on the internet and didn't take the time to change the number to 2, so for you you detail-oriented people, don't get all hung up on the number - focus on the message.  The message!)  It has been an amazing experience and I continue to be shocked, amazed and grateful for the friends I have made and the experiences I have because of this online journal.  It's really weird when you stop to think about it.  I mean, it's just a diary of sorts.  How can something so insignificant bring about such changes in my life?  Well...I could go on and on about the hows and whys of the whole thing, and you all know I will, because that's what I do.  I go on and on and on about my thoughts and feelings, my experiences, my growth...usually in great detail.  But I'll spare you the lengthy, self-indulgent post for now and I'll just thank you for taking the time to stay in touch with me as I write about my growing pains and life with my boys.

And to thank you all for your love and support, I will be finishing out the month with lots of giveaways!!  YAY!!  Free stuff!!!  So ya gotta check in over the next few weeks to see what's on the giveaway list and leave a few comments to win a prize.  Okay?  Cool.  Now go do something totally fun this weekend to celebrate my blogoversary while I sleep off the last few weeks of 12 hour work days and this sucky work schedule of mine!  Somebody eat a giant piece of chocolate cake for me while you're at it.

  1. I’m afraid that you , self proclaimed non-expert are perhaps mistaken about the cost and availability of food.
    Fact is, the cheapest way to feed your family, $/kcal is to troll the inner aisles of what we call food stores.
    The subsidies given to grow corn, sugar and soy have resulted in products that offer lots of calories from too many of the wrong sources. When you need to fill bellies you look for calories.
    So without straying into too much politics… the lower income folks can fill themselves and their children on bad fat, corn syrup etc. because off artificially low subsidized prices. Check out what Pollan sp? has to say.
    It’s funny that so many are howling about socialism now; our subsidies have promoted big agri-biz over small family farms aand has created many problems on the global market for small family farmers around the world. What is right about American commodities, sold at artificially low prices through subsidies, being sold in countries where it price under cuts the local farmers?
    I don’t for a second buy your last point. It is sadly typical of not really looking at a problem unfiltered by a particular ideology. Oops, politics and ideology on your food blog. Sorry.
    Loved Otto the other night. Lucky to sit and eat at the bar. Also enjoy Belcourt 2nd Ave at 4th St. Kind of a gastro-pub/bistro.
    Interesting wines and generous pours in fine glassware. Worth a look.

  2. I am not suggesting that inexpensive, high-quality food is effortless. All I am saying is that it is available. Whether someone chooses to buy HFCS foods and fatty foods is entirely a personal choice, as it should be. But good stuff is available at reasonable prices.

    And you are correct that the subsidies paid to farmers and certain food industries are ridiculous, distort the market, and contribute to our bad diets by making crappy food less expensive than the market would price it. But once again, the answer is not to buy overpriced food at local farmers markets, just because it seems healthy. The cost of transporting that food dwarfs that of the cost of mass-produced food, and the health benefits of organic/natural are debatable. So Alice is doing America a disservice by touting this stuff. A much more affordable alternative is available — but only if chosen!

    Otto is the real deal. I have never had a bad dish, or bad service, or a bad drink or glass of wine.

    Belcourt, based on your track record of recomendations, will be on my short list!

  3. Just to further irritate you further…

    but you should check out Michael Pollan’s writing on all things about food production and distribution.

  4. I love reading about Alice Waters. Everything she says is pompous and stupid, and it brightens my day with a chuckle! Pollan is something else entirely. He is not stupid.

  5. You mean like my old friend?
    He used to be nervous and jerky, now he takes meds for his nerves.

    You paint Waters with a pretty big brush. She has played a great part in bringing about a fundamental shift in how cooks approach food. Yes, as with any “movement” things get nutty, appellations for salt, radishes with their own websites etc., but there has been a marked elevation in awareness concerning food production since she and her friends showed up. And I agree, she can be pompous and annoying, but who isn’t?

  6. I use Alice Waters as the most egregious example of what is happening to food. Can she cook? Absolutely. Is she an expert on moving a local effort to provide excellent quality ingredients (at huge cost), for a way of cooking and eating that may be more healthy, into the mainstream? Absolutely not. She has no concept of even the most basic economic principles, has no understanding of the complexity of expanding a local effort to an entire nation, and she does real damage because of her inability to understand that the law of unintended consequences cannot be repealed, no matter how earnest she is.

    There was a recent article and recipe in the New York Times for mac & cheese. But the author used a cheese that is more than $25/lb. And she called for about 1.5 lbs. I think that in these days of economic turmoil and uncertainty, suggesting that people spend in excess of $40 to make a pot of mac & cheese is obscene.

    It is that kind of obtuseness in the face of reality that irritates and frustrates me. I would take Alice Waters much more seriously if she used her bully pulpit to guide people to a more healthy way of eating and cooking without relying on access to the spectacular stuff that she, and very few others, can get because of the unique Bay Area ecology and food culture.

    And her restaurants are not quite as good as their reputations would suggest. She has been passed by many excellent chefs.

  7. “Not quite as good as their reputations suggest,” is an understatement. I have dined at Chez Panisse both in the formal and informal dining rooms. All I can say was both meals were a huge disappointment. I certainly will never return. Can Alice Waters cook? Yes, but not well.

IBBY regularly seeks donations for projects under its Children in Crisis Fund to provide support for children whose lives have been disrupted by war, civil disorder or natural disaster. IBBY believes that children who are suffering from natural disaster, displacement, war and its aftermath, desperately need books and stories as well as food, shelter, clothing and medicines. These are all necessities and are not mutually exclusive.

Projects have been supported in the wake of natural disasters in Indonesia (2005 to 2009, tsunami), Peru (earthquake, 2007), China (2008, earthquake) Haiti (2009, hurricane and 2010, earthquake), Pakistan (2010, floods) and Japan (2011, earthquake).

War and conflict has given rise to projects in Afghanistan (2009), Colombia (2008 to 2010), and Lebanon (2007) and in Gaza, Palestine (2008) as well as the current appeals for funding for the reconstruction of libraries in Gaza and for programmes for Syrian children in Lebanon, described below.

Whatever the cause for children in crisis, the two main activities that are supported by the Fund are the therapeutic use of books and storytelling in the form of bibliotherapy, and the creation or replacement of collections of selected, appropriate books.

In addition, IBBY operates a Solidarity Fund to help IBBY Sections experiencing financial difficulties in less-developed or economically depressed countries.

Proposed Formation of Platform - International Entrepreneurs Association Youth Chapter

Initiative highlighted entrepreneurship education as one of the issues requiring greater global awareness and action. The need to develop new and innovative models to address these challenges is urgent, and while education is one of the most important foundations for economic development, entrepreneurship is a major driver of innovation and economic growth.

It has become quite clear over the years that without well-developed or potentially available entrepreneurial capabilities, external funds will be wasted on projects that will not provide long term economic growth. While the landscape is changing gradually and some improvements are evident, the present educational system, at a regional level, still does little to stimulate creative thinking and unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of the youth in order to cultivate a new breed of much needed job-creators and income generators, rather than job seekers.

In the relation to the above, International Entrepreneurs Association (IEA), are welcome and be grateful in its noble task of providing and cultivating entrepreneurs with continuous prestige recognition, professional development education and networks support on global basis. International Entrepreneurs Association, United Kingdom (IEA, UK) agreed that there was tremendous potential for the association to act as a catalyst in this field given its expertise in convening world leaders to discuss global issues, and its proven record of success in establishing and developing partnerships as demonstrated through the Global Education Initiative.

In order to realise greater employment opportunities, the dynamism of the SMEs sector and a higher level of entrepreneurship must be stimulated among youth. International Entrepreneurs Association, Youth Chapter ( IEA YC ), formed as a group of adolescents, both male and female, within the communities of high school, colleges as well as universities , is a means by which young people can organize themselves to learn about the entrepreneurial ethical & cultural and take action as well.

International Entrepreneurs Association, United Kingdom (IEA, UK) believes this approach may be the dawn of new beginning for support efforts in developing young and successful entrepreneurs in the future. With the initiatives and commitment towards helping and educating the youth and students with any opportunities at possible situation, The IEA Youth Chapter will be the ultimate platform for – Developing Ethical Culture and Fostering Corporate Entrepreneurial Practice among Youth

Prior to the establishment of the IEA Youth Chapter, we believe that entrepreneurship results in increased innovation and sustained economic growth. We see enormous potential in investing in entrepreneurship education in order to nurture talent and develop the next wave of leaders and innovators who will not only create jobs and value for society, but also empower others to create a better future.

Maximum scan size*
216 x 356 mm
Optical scanning resolution*
How many pixels a scanner can see. Most commonly, this is measured in dots per inch (dpi).For example, a typical flatbed scanner will use a scanning head with 300 sensors per inch, so it can sample 300 dots per inch (dpi) in one direction. To scan in the other direction, it will move the scanning head along the page, stopping 300 times per inch, so it can scan 300 dpi in the other direction as well. This scanner would have an optical resolution of 300 x 300 dpi. Some manufacturers stop the scanning head more frequently as it moves down the page, so their machines have resolutions of 300 x 600 dpi or 300x1200 dpi.
600 x 1200 DPI
Colour scanning*
Indicates whether this product scans in colour.
Duplex scanning*
Feature of computer scanners and multifunction printers (MFPs) that allows the automatic scanning of a sheet of paper on both sides.
Input colour depth
Colour depth of the input into the product. The colour depth is either the number of bits used to indicate the color of a single pixel, in a bitmapped image or video frame buffer, or the number of bits used for each color component of a single pixel. High-end laptops have 24-bit colour depth.
24 bit
Film scanning*
Device made for scanning photographic film directly into a computer without the use of any intermediate printmaking. It provides several benefits over using a flatbed scanner to scan in a print of any size: the photographer has direct control over cropping and aspect ratio from the original, unmolested image on film; and many film scanners have special software or hardware that removes scratches and film grain and improves color reproduction from film.
Gray scale levels
Flatbed scan speed (b/w, A4)
0.25 sec/page
Scanner type*
A scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Common examples found in offices are variations of the desktop (or flatbed) scanner where the document is placed on a glass window for scanning. There are different types of scanners e.g. flatbed, pen, sheet-feed.
Colour of product*
The colour e.g. red, blue, green, black, white.
Sensor type*
A sensor is a convertor than measures a physical quality (light, temperature etc.) and displays this electronically on a device.
Daily duty cycle (max)*
The maximum percentage of time a machine or piece of equipment can be in operation for in one day in relation to the time it must remain out of operation. For instance, a max daily duty cycle of 30 percent means it will operate for a maximum 30 percent of the day and then not be used for the other 70 percent of the day.

Meet Babybit: World's First Smart + Mobile Baby Monitor

As much as we would like to, it's nearly impossible to be with your kids every second of every day. Whether you're working, traveling, or simply out and about getting things done for the rest of the family, while you're out and about you still want the peace of mind that your child is safe and well taken care of. This is especially true for new moms and moms with infants.

With an experienced product creation team including Intel's former Director of Big Ideas, BabyBit, a groundbreaking new smart + mobile baby monitor has launched via an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign, offering an innovative tech gear to help moms around the world stay connected to their babies while they're away.
BabyBit combines a wearable device that attaches to a baby's clothing, with an easy to use app for parents that provides parents with realtime mobile updates on their baby's location, status, and general well-being. The updates are configurable, insightful and actionable so that parents aren't inundated with information that they can't use. Some things that BabyBit can do that other monitors don't include:

  • Notify the parent when the baby is dropped off or picked up by a caregiver
         You won't have to wait on a text or phone call to know that the baby got picked up from daycare on time and is headed to grandma's house. With a quick glance at your mobile notifications, your mind can be put at ease.
  • Alert the parent when the baby is crying for an extended period or unable to be consoled
         If you're not at home, it does you no good to know every single time the baby cries, but with BabyBit you can set your notifications to alert you if the baby's been crying for a period of time that you think is too long or unusual.
  • Detect when the baby is sleeping on its stomach and alert both the caregiver and the parent
         Should the baby roll over on its stomach during a nap, the caregiver will be alerted immediately. If the baby stays on its stomach (for a period of time that you set), you'll be notified as well.

Aside from the notifications, there are more details available within the app. There you can see if the baby is awake or asleep and content or crying. You can also get insights into how attentive the caregiver is and what the baby's disposition has been while they've been with the caregiver.

You can see a video of BabyBit in action below:

I'm personally excited for BabyBit to hit the market and I know many of you will be too. It's a must have for any mom with a young baby (and it would make a great gift)! I strongly encourage you to support their Indiegogo campaign, which runs through July 26th, 2016. The faster they reach their goal, the faster you can get your hands on a BabyBit.

For more information about BabyBit and to sign up for their email updates, please visit

In the meantime, I'd love to hear what you think about BabyBit and any tips you might have for moms on the go to stay connected to their babies when they can't be with them.

Clean lucite with hot soapy water using a soft cloth. The type of polishing cloth you use will make a difference. The ideal cloth is nonabrasive, absorbent, and lint free.
To eliminate any chance of scratching lucite , use only disposable cloths. Reusable cloths can retain abrasive particles, but you won't know for sure until the damage is done.

Do not use sprays such as Windex or Fantastic on lucite.

A Fall from Grace by Robert Barnard
A Novel of Suspense

No critic rating

Waiting for minimum critic reviews

See 1 Critic Review

From Robert Barnard, the internationally acclaimed Diamond Dagger-winning crime writer . . .

With A Fall from Grace, Robert Barnard triumphs once again with a witty tale of family discord and murder.

Detective Inspector Charlie Peace and his wife, Felicity, are shocked when Felicity's difficult dad, Rupert Coggenhoe, suddenly announces that he's moving north to their Yorkshire village. Felicity has never much liked her father, and to have him as a near-neighbor fills her with foreboding. The boorish old man has always loved to impress the ladies, young and old, by exaggerating his modest success as a novelist. True to form, soon after his move to Slepton Edge he surrounds himself with adoring females, including a precocious, theatrical teenager named Anne Michaels. Rupert and Anne could make a lethal combination.

Rumors fly, but Felicity convinces herself that Rupert would do nothing seriously wrong. He can be annoying and outrageous but he's not a criminal. She relies on a friend, a doctor who seems to be strangely aware of everything that's happening in the community, to warn her if he hears of anything really troubling. She doesn't have long to wait, but the news is not what she expects. It's worse. A body has been found and it looks like murder. Stunned by a difficult reality, Felicity is even more shocked to discover that she, herself, may be a suspect.

This is one criminal investigation that's much too close to home for Charlie Peace. He's not officially on the case, but he uses his copper's instincts and a husband's heart to find a killer and to discover anew the meaning of family.

Praised for his "perfect pitch, exquisite pacing, and meticulous plotting" (Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times), Robert Barnard proves yet again that he is one of the great masters of mystery.

3rd IEF General Assembly 1999

Tuesday, 17 August 1999, Sidcot, England

1. The third General Assembly of the International Environment Forum was held in Sidcot, England, on 17 August 1999, with 13 voting members present from Ghana, Norway, Pakistan, Russia, Swaziland, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and USA, and 2 observers. In addition, 29 non-present voting members with access to e-mail could participate in the assembly discussions and vote for the governing board. A full list of voting members, and persons present at the General Assembly is given below in Annex 1. The Annual Report of the Forum is given in Annual Report 1998-1999.

2. The General Assembly was opened by the President of the Governing Board of the Environment Forum, Arthur Dahl.

3. Officers of the meeting: In view of the small group there was no formal election of chairman and secretary. The Assembly requested the officers of the governing board, Arthur Dahl and Sylvia Karlsson, to serve as chairman and secretary, respectively.

4. The agenda was modified to begin with the guidance recently received from the Office of Social and Economic Development, as well as consultation on the Annual Report 1998-1999 from the governing board.

Presentation of and consultation on the Annual Report and the letter from OSED

5. The guidance from the Office of Social and Economic Development and the Universal House of Justice received during the past two years was outlined and the most recent letter from OSED was taken up in more detail, lifting out the major points. This letter recommended that the Forum concentrate on external outreach, influencing the various fields of human endeavor with concepts and principles drawn from Bahá'u'lláh's teachings.

Election of the governing board for the coming year

6. Election of the board: Out of the 44 voting members, 17 votes were cast, 4 via e-mail and 13 in person. The board that was elected consists of (in alphabetical order):

Peter Adriance, USA
Irma Allen, Swaziland
Maxwell Ayamba-Apaladaga, Ghana/UK
Arthur Dahl, Switzerland
Sylvia Karlsson, Sweden,

7. Michael Richards was originally elected but informed the General Assembly that he was unable to serve due to pressing work in other areas. The next number of votes on the list was taken, where Maxwell Ayamba, Tahereh Nadarajah and Victoria Thoresen were tied, and a runoff vote was held among these three. As a result, Maxwell Ayamba was elected to the board.

Consultation on the revised statutes

8. The consultation that followed first focused on the statutes. A revised draft of the statutes prepared in view of the latest guidance from Haifa was circulated and discussed in some detail.

9. It was proposed that the statutes refer explicitly to the Forum having e-mail members and functioning over the Internet, including governing board meetings via e-mail, a moderated list server, and possibly general members' meetings over e-mail, for example four times a year.

10. One thought brought forward was that it may not be necessary for the Forum to be a legal entity able to handle funds. The Forum could facilitate projects which would then be self-financing or be passed on to other institutions. There would be no need for a budget except for some secretariat expenses. The IEF conferences can be self-financing. If members wanted to represent the IEF at meetings, they would have to assume the cost for attending themselves.

11. Suggestions were made to include in paragraph 7.2 the explicit mention of Bahá'í procedures for consultation and election. Change "justified" to "explained".

12. In article 17, dissolution of the Forum should be by decision of the annual general assembly (or a special one), which could be electronic, by a 2/3 or 1/2 vote.

13. It was suggested that the statutes should be given to a Bahá'í with legal experience for checking.

14. There should be provision for the method of adopting the statutes. Any person becoming a member should agree to accept and abide by the statutes and by-laws.

15. Internal By-laws can be adopted.

16. One comment for changing the statutes came via e-mail from one of our members.

17. A related issue that was discussed was the concern addressed to the board by one of the members that having the directory of the IEF membership on the web raises issues of security. People could identify the members if searching for Bahá'í on the web, and get addresses, etc. The assembly concluded that there were still advantages for a "virtual" organization in having the directory on the web. However the board might consider consulting with the members beforehand to determine whether they wished to be included in the web directory, given a partial listing, or excluded.

Consultation on activities and priorities for the coming year

18. It was proposed to have quarterly meetings over e-mail. The board should check out the e-groups.com to see if that would make it easier. One could ask members to moderate the meetings on themes to be proposed by the board.

19. The Forum should create an idea bank of ways to take positive action towards the environment, with suggested programmes for industrialized and developing countries.

20. It is essential to approach this work with a spiritual vision and it is an area where Bahá'ís have a unique contribution to make in balancing the material and the spiritual. We should explore alternative terminology for "developing countries" such as "less economically developed countries".

21. The IEF web site should become an environmental portal, collecting links to environmental sites and categorizing them to show that we are all-inclusive.

22. The materials should not be targeted only to Bahá'í communities.

23. It was suggested that the board develop a five year plan, with goals such as achieving recognition at the international level, establishing relationships with other NGOs, etc. Then we can develop and tick off each goal.

24. The board could issue statements on remedies we have to offer to the world, bringing in the spiritual side.

25. We could identify someone to carry out a study of the most significant Bahá'í-inspired projects with environmental benefits. These could be written up as case studies, recorded on video, and incorporated into education materials. We could collaborate with BASED or others. We could define the criteria, make a list of desired studies, and ask members to do them.

26. Other suggestions included producing educational materials on environmental awareness for Bahá'ís and others which are flexible, that is easy to adapt to various socio-economic and cultural settings, undertaking book reviews, and providing advice on environmentally-friendly shopping.

27. The General Assembly closed with general appreciation for the progress that the Forum has made in less than two years.

All Stats Battle Royale 2 for the PS4

It came as quite a shock to PlayStation fans across the globe (myself included) when Sony unveiled the existence of a Smash Bros-eqsue fighting game called PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale.

And, it came as even more of a shock to discover that it performed much more poorly than its pedigree would have suggested it might, the original PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale received mixed critical responses and any hopes of a PlayStation All Stars sequel for the PS4 swiftly being put on hold. And yet, PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale 2 remains an object of much scrutiny, the original game displaying enough promise and enjoyment to make the notion of a follow-up relatively enticing.

PS4 Playstation All Stars Battle Royale 2

Whispers of a PS4 PlayStation All Stars sequel have been floating through the gamer-sphere for quite some time now – even as early as E3 2013. Speaking to IGN on Podcast Beyond, Sony’s own Shuhei Yoshida said “never say never” when asked about the possibility of a PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale 2. While certainly not the most optimistic of outlooks, it wasn’t an outright “no,” and showed us that even Sony themselves weren’t sure what to do with the property.

But how should a PlayStation All Stars sequel look? How should it play, and which characters should make a return? If the first game is anything to go by, then the amount of work that needs putting into PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale 2 is rather minimal – the original was fun, lively and showed great love for the characters and properties present. That being said, there’s always room for improvement, right?

Playstation All Stars character roster

Everyone from Sackboy to Kratos has been lauded as the best PlayStation All Stars character at one point or another, and there’s a reason for that. This PlayStation exclusive was an incredible display of the power of PlayStation mascots, leveraging Sony’s very best brands and appealing to virtually every type of gamer. There were even a number of significant third-party inclusions, such as BioShock’s Big Daddy and Devil May Cry’s Dante.

The fact that no one fighter was definitively ‘the best PlayStation All Stars character’ means that the sequel could take a range of different paths. Any character could get the chop, and any character could be added. The most obvious candidate for inclusion is PS1 icon Crash Bandicoot, though several rights issues may make this harder than it seems. Elsewhere, there’s Knack, Lara Croft, Joel and Spyro, who could all bring a unique moveset to the sequel and would slot in nicely alongside the first game’s roster.

Battle Royale gameplay screenshot

This was the single most divisive element of the first game, and it’s something that PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale 2 must work hard to rectify. Credit where credit is due, the fighting system present in the series is wholly original and isn’t just a copy and paste from All Stars’ obvious competitor, Nintendo’s Smash Bros.

This system revolves around building up a meter, adding points to it by attacking other players. Once your meter is full – you can fill it one, two or three times – you can unleash a level one, two or three special attack, which is the only way to K.O. your opponents. The higher the level, the more damage the attack will inflict, and level three attacks usually crush everything on the screen, where level one attacks are focused on a single enemy.

Spike from Apes Escape

For me, the best PlayStation All Stars character was Ape Escape’s Spike, given the brutal nature of his level three attack. This universe-destroying move killed every single enemy that was on-screen and was impossible to dodge. However, therein lies the game’s biggest problem. You could stay well back from the fight, taking potshots with a rifle or grenade, and build up to a level three attack without much effort. It was far too easy to kill with and defend yourself from a level three super attack, and a PlayStation All Stars sequel must alter this system slightly.

I’d suggest that your meter also allows you to defend yourself from attacks, rather than just being used as an offensive tool. This would add a great level of strategy to the fights; do I use my super attack, or do I hoard my full meter so I can protect myself from an impending assault? I’m sure you’re reading this now Shuhei – you can mail me my cheque!

Campaign of Playstation All Stars Battle Royale

At best, it was serviceable, and at worst, it was borderline laughable. All Stars’ campaign mode was an incredibly brief, feeble attempt at working these beloved characters together into a coherent plot. It wasn’t really much of a campaign mode, per say; it was a series of fights held together by a plotline so thin that you could literally see it crumbling during each cutscene.

Why not give us a truly great fighting game campaign mode? It’s not like they’re uncommon; far from it! Injustice: Gods Among Us, King of Fighters, BlazBlue, Dissidia… the list goes on. Perhaps a greater focus on the singleplayer experience would help the game appeal to a broader gaming audience, boosting those sales and critic ratings. As it stands, PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale requires an internet connection or multiple controllers to be enjoyed fully.

So, in short, PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale 2 needs to give us more of the same – with just a few minor tweaks. While you wait for the sequel to arrive, why not check out some of the original game’s characters, like Ratchet & Clank and Nathan Drake, in their own standalone adventures?

  • Parker Jennings

    I loved this game. It deserves a sequel that addresses and improves upon the weaker points of the originals

  • TheRadiantOne

    Despite the game’s many flaws both technical and by design the game was still fun and enjoyable for the most part. The potential for a sequel is definitely there. Have it be everything the first game was while expanding upon most everything, keep the things that worked, and iron out or rework the things that didn’t work.

  • YOUr lIfE Is A jOkE

    i miss this game…

  • Brent Hood

    They need to add ring-outs, like in super smash Bros. Keep the meter and special attacks but make it so you can also get knocked off so it’s not all about just filling up the meters cuz some people like to stand off to the side while others are fighting and they swoop in when the orbs drop, it was kind of annoying

$156M awarded in teen's killing

From CNN

"Three Islamic charities and an alleged fund-raiser for the Palestinian militant group Hamas were ordered Wednesday to pay $156 million to the parents of an American teenager killed by terrorists outside Jerusalem."

Full story at http://www.cnn.com/2004/LAW/12/08/islamic.charities.suit.ap/index.html

Its a sad day for justice in the US. These charities have their funds frozen for their alleged support of Hamas under a federal indictment. They are yet to be proven guilty of the alleged support, but are required to pay millions that they don't have to the family of the victim. One could wonder how the courts would deal with lawsuits from palestinians against jewish charities whose funds are used to build settlements on stolen lands. Or a lawsuit against Caterpillar which made the bulldozer that crushed Rachel Corrie to death.

1 comment(s):

  • You mean the concept of "guilty until proven innocent?" - This is nothing new - the experience of esp. African Americans in the United States has been pretty well documented.

    These are trying times - too often, such cases result in a reaction amongst some members of the Muslim community...such as indulging in only "self-blame" - as if this is all the "fault" of Muslim community/organization/leaders etc.

    What's needed is a sense of balance - recognizing that Muslims as all Americans have the same rights as everyone else. And that we're gonna struggle to re-claim these rights. Of-course in order to do this - we have to build strong coallitions with existing civil rights movements and learn from 'em...

Trying to fix a Copal 602 flip palette

While everything seems to (still) work, inside the Copal 602 clock I found a loose palette. It has one hook missing, and it should be possible to rebuild it with a tiny cut of hard plastic of the proper thickness. I still have to figure out how to keep it in place while the superglue does it job.

But, what if it doesn't work? (Or I get it totally wrong.) I think modern technology can come to the rescue: laser cut. Probably the hardest part to find is the right plastic (let alone the color), then with a 1200 dpi scan of an original palette and a digital ruler on the picture, a digital model can be drawn. Finally it is a matter of few seconds under the laser.

Here is the 1200 dpi scan if anyone needs it.

Diaz v. Colvin

United States District Court, C.D. Illinois, Rock Island Division

September 29, 2014

CORRIE B. DIAZ, a.k.a. Corrie B. Pickett, Plaintiff,
CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.

SARA DARROW, District Judge.

Plaintiff Corrie B. Diaz, also known as Corrie B. Pickett, [1] appeals the final decision of Defendant Carolyn W. Colvin, Acting Commissioner of the Social Security Administration ("the Commissioner"), denying her applications for Disability Insurance Benefits ("DIB") and Supplemental Security Income ("SSI") under the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 401-433, 1381-1383f. This matter comes before the Court on the Plaintiff's motion Requesting Reversal and Remand, ECF No. 12, and Defendant's Motion for Summary Affirmance, ECF No. 17. For the following reasons, the Court GRANTS Plaintiff's motion for reversal and remand and DENIES Defendant's Motion for Summary Affirmance.

Diaz filed applications for SSI on August 27, 2009, and DIB on October 22, 2009, alleging that she became disabled as of April 1, 2008. R. 141. Both applications were denied on February 22, 2010. Id. Diaz requested reconsideration; her claims were denied a second time on June 14, 2010. Id. She requested a hearing, which was held via video conference on August 18, 2011, before Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") Robert C. Asbille. Id. On August 26, 2011, Asbille issued a decision finding that Diaz had six severe impairments-"bad back, sore foot, bipolar disorder, anxiety, personality disorder, and substance abuse"-but could still work under certain limitations and therefore was ineligible for benefits. See R. 155. Diaz appealed to the Appeals Council, which issued an order on May 29, 2012, vacating and remanding ALJ Asbille's decision. R. 163-64. Specifically, the Appeals Council remanded the case (1) for clarification of the ALJ's residual functional capacity ("RFC") assessment as to the frequency and length of time Diaz would have to alternate between sitting and standing, and (2) for the vocational expert to reconcile his testimony that Diaz could perform the jobs of assembler and general office clerk with the Dictionary of Occupational Titles, which does not specifically address the sit/stand option. R. 163.

On remand, Diaz's case came before ALJ Shreese M. Wilson. A hearing was held via video conference on September 18, 2012, at which Diaz testified as well as Alfred Walker, a vocational expert. R. 14. ALJ Wilson found that Diaz had five severe impairments: degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis of the foot, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and a personality disorder. R. 16. The ALJ found that these impairments or combination thereof did not meet or medically equal the severity of one of the listed impairments in 20 C.F.R. §§ 404, Subpart P, Appendix 1 (20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1520(d), 404.1525, 404.1526, 416.920(d), 416.925, and 416.926) ("Listing of Impairments"). R. 17. ALJ Wilson also found that Diaz retained the RFC to perform "sedentary work" as defined in 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1567(a), 416.967(a), with the following additional limitations:

[Diaz] must alternate sitting and standing once an hour for 5 minutes, she can never climb ladders, ropes or scaffolds, she can work with minimal contact with the general public and no more than occasional contact with co-workers or supervisors, and she is limited to tasks learned within 30 days that are routine and repetitive in nature, in a low-stress environment (no more than occasional decision-making or changes in the work setting).

R. 18. Based on Walker's testimony, ALJ Wilson found that there were a significant number of jobs in the national economy that Diaz could perform, such as ticket checker, addresser, and document preparer. R. 21-22. As a result of this analysis, the ALJ found that Diaz was not disabled from April 1, 2008, through the date of her decision, October 11, 2012. R. 22. The Appeals Council granted review of ALJ Wilson's decision on the grounds that she failed to sufficiently examine the impact of Diaz's obesity. R. 313-15. In the final administrative decision in this case, on March 12, 2013, the Appeals Council examined Diaz's obesity and nevertheless concluded that she was not disabled, adopting most of ALJ's Wilson's findings, including those on Diaz's mental impairments. R. 4-7. Diaz filed the instant action on April 11, 2013, requesting the Court's review of the Commissioner's final decision pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).

I. District Court Review of the ALJ Decision

A court's function on review is not to try the case de novo or to supplant the ALJ's findings with the court's own assessment of the evidence. See Schmidt v. Apfel, 201 F.3d 970, 972 (7th Cir. 2000); Pugh v. Bowen, 870 F.2d 1271, 1274 (7th Cir. 1989). Instead, the court's role is to determine whether the ALJ's findings were supported by substantial evidence and whether the proper legal standards were applied. See Cannon v. Apfel, 213 F.3d 970, 975 (7th Cir. 2000). To determine whether substantial evidence exists, the court reviews the record as a whole but does not reconsider facts, reweigh evidence, resolve conflicts in evidence, or decide questions of credibility. See id. (citing Williams v. Apfel, 179 F.3d 1066, 1072 (7th Cir. 1999)). Substantial evidence is defined as such relevant evidence as a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion. See Richardson v. Perales, 402 U.S. 389, 401 (1971); Henderson v. Apfel, 179 F.3d 507, 512 (7th Cir. 1999). Even if reasonable minds could differ concerning a disability determination, the ALJ's decision must be affirmed if it is adequately supported. See Elder v. Astrue, 529 F.3d 408, 413 (7th Cir. 2008). Indeed, "[t]he findings of the Commissioner of Social Security as to any fact, if supported by substantial evidence, shall be conclusive." 42 U.S.C. § 405(g); Powers v. Apfel, 207 F.3d 431, 434 (7th Cir. 2000).

Although great deference is afforded to the determination made by the ALJ, a court does not "merely rubber stamp the ALJ's decision." Scott v. Barnhart, 297 F.3d 589, 593 (7th Cir. 2002) (citations omitted). Rather, the ALJ's decision must "sufficiently articulate their assessment of the evidence to assure us that they considered the important evidence and to enable us to trace the path of their reasoning." Id. at 595 (quoting Hickman v. Apfel, 187 F.3d 683, 689 (7th Cir. 1999)). The ALJ has a duty to "minimally articulate his or her justification for rejecting or accepting specific evidence of disability." Scheck v. Barnhart, 357 F.3d 697, 700 (7th Cir. 2004) (citing Steward v. Bowen, 858 F.2d 1295, 1299 (7th Cir. 1988)).

Further, the ALJ's decision must build an accurate and logical bridge between the evidence and the ultimate conclusions. Parker v. Astrue, 597 F.3d 920, 921 (7th Cir. 2010); Scott, 297 F.3d at 595. "Although the ALJ need not discuss every piece of evidence in the record, he must confront the evidence that does not support his conclusion and explain why it was rejected." Indoranto v. Barnhart, 374 F.3d 470, 474 (7th Cir. 2004) (citing Kararsky v. Barnhart, 335 F.3d 539, 543 (7th Cir. 2002)). If there is an error of law, "reversal is, of course, warranted irrespective of the volume of evidence supporting the factual findings." Schmoll v. Harris, 636 F.2d 1146, 1150 (7th Cir. 1980).

II. Entitlement to Benefits

In order to be entitled to DIB and/or SSI, a claimant must show that his inability to work is medical in nature and that he is totally disabled.[2] Economic conditions, personal factors, financial considerations, and attitudes of employers are irrelevant in determining whether a claimant is eligible for disability benefits. See 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1566, ...

850th post!

I just noticed that this makes my 850th post. Let's have a party. Just kidding. I do want to share something with you however. Last night was my 3rd night sleeping with my "new best friend" aka CPAP machine. So far it is working great. I have been able to get to sleep with little or no problem and have slept incredibly well.

Last night the girls decided they wanted to join me for some slumber. Sophie has been sleeping with me most every night for a while now but Pattykins has betrayed me in favor of Stephanie.......NOW RUDE! Of course I am kidding. I am happy that Steph has a close bond with Patty. She always longed for that with Annie and Sophie so this time she was sure to spend a lot of time playing with and tending to Patty as she started to grow up. Anyway, Patty didn't know what to think of the CPAP machine. She kept trying to lick my face and the mask as if to say "MOM! Something has attached to your face and I can't get it off!" She finally settled down until I had to get up to use the restroom. I just unplug the hose when I get up and leave it on the bed. The hose continues to blow air out which really confused Pattykins. I must say it was quite amusing.

I am anxious to see what a full night's sleep with no alarm clock will bring. I have slept well and felt rested but I am looking forward to seeing how the weekend sleeps go.

I am so thankful to have been dianosed with sleep apnea. Now, don't get me wrong. I would rather not have to sleep with a machine hooked up to me. I am just grateful that there is treatment for the tiredness I have felt for so long.

Bill said...

I'm glad you are getting better sleep now. How are we going to keep up with you with all this extra energy you'll have?

Dan and Betty Cooksey said...

Good for you on all fronts.

Syd said...

Congrats on so many posts! Hope you had a good weekend.

The Maritime History of the Great Lakes
River Queen (Propeller), fire, 15 May 1877

Full Text

Yesterday the tug RIVER QUEEN burned while coming down the St. Clair River abreast of this city. The schooner BRIDGEWATER, her tow, set the alarm and the tugs MOCKING BIRD; J. SMITH and J.H. MARTIN came to her assistance. With their help the damage to the tug was kept at $1,000, which was fully covered by insurance. She was towed to this side and pumped out during the afternoon.
      Port Huron Daily Times
      Monday, may 14, 1877

      At Port Huron Sunday, the tug RIVER QUEEN, while towing the schooner BRIDGEWATER, caught fire over her boiler and was badly damaged. Her deck and upper works off of the captain's room were entirely destroyed. The loss is estimated at $1,000. The tug was owned by Capt. S. Grummond and Martin Swain, of this city, and valued at $10,000. She was insured for $3,500 in the Detroit Fire & Marine Insurance Co., of this place. Capt. Thos. Allen and Maurice Barrett, of the RIVER QUEEN, were both slightly burned around the face.

      Port Huron. May 12 - The tug RIVER QUEEN, while towing the schr. BRIDGEWATER inside this morning, caught fire over her boiler. The flames were soon under good headway, and were discovered from the shore previous to their discovery on the tug. So rapid were their progress that they drove the crew to each end of the boat. The tug MOCKING BIRD went to her relief, and with her pony engine rendering good assistance. The tug ANDREW J. SMITH, discovering the peril of the crew, started from the dock here, and soon had a stream from her hose playing upon the burning tug. The tug J.H. MARTIN was also on hand rendering assistance. Several yawls, manned by crews from vessels lying in the stream, were soon alongside the burning wreck and took off the crew. The MARTIN towed her to Sarnia, where a stream from the water works soon subdued the flames. Capt. Thomas Allen was slightly burned around the face, while Maurice Barrett suffered likewise. The damage will probably be around a $1,000. The tug's upper works were entirely consumed.

X-Men: First Class Official Movie Trailer

X Men first class, xmen first class, xmen first class trailer, xmen, x men first class trailer. Official look at the cast of X-Men: First Class hit the net in what can only be described as a messy concoction of negative reactions, even from the director of the film, who did not approve of the amateur photoshop work.

Fox is releasing the trailer for X-Men: First Class, the latest comic book summer blockbuster, this afternoon on the film's Facebook page.

Matthew Vaughn did his best to spin something positive out of the situation, by talking about the film’s story, characters and costumes, while releasing some better images (actual stills) from the film. While Vaughn made a good effort to paint the film in a better light, inevitably our best measure of this film is going to come from the official  X-Men: First Class trailer.

X-Men: First Class pulls viewers back in time to the 1960s when mutants are unknown to the world and for the most part, to each other, as we discover the origins of Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) and Erik Lehnsherr (Michael Fassbender) before they part ways and end up on opposite sides of the human-mutant conflict, becoming Professor X and Magneto, respectively.

Surprisingly, the video is actually not too different from the leaked X-Men: First Class trailer description from a month ago, which is a good thing, as what was described sounded pretty amazing. Now we know that it looks amazing as well, but how telling is it of the final product? X Men first class, xmen first class, xmen first class trailer, xmen, x men first class trailer.

Reaching the Six-Month Mark on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)

Written by on February 20, 2013 in DACA/DAPA, Enforcement, Legislation, Reform with 6 Comments

7448545692_8ef54f6477_zThe Department of Homeland Security has issued its latest data on the Obama Administration’s initiative that offers deferment from deportation and temporary work permits to young undocumented immigrants under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) initiative. In the first six months of the program (August 15–February 14), 423,634 out of the roughly 936,933 immigrants between the ages of 15 and 30 who might immediately meet the requirements, have had their applications accepted for processing. In other words, approximately 45% of those potentially eligible for the program have applied in the first six months. In addition, since February, 199,460 individuals have been approved for DACA and will receive two-year temporary work permits.

As the program moves forward, a range of issues have emerged in the states in which DACA recipients reside, particularly around the issuance of driver’s licenses. Once DACA recipients receive work permits, they can get Social Security cards. In most states this should make them eligible for a driver’s license if they can meet their state’s others requirements. In addition, the – the Department of Homeland Security has gone to lengths to clarify that DACA recipients are ‘lawfully present’ in order to help state’s avoid undue restrictions on DACA recipients. However, some states, like Arizona, are determined to change the rules specifically so they can deny driver’s licenses to DACA recipients. The National Immigration Law Center (NILC) keeps close track of developments on the driver’s license front and has even filed a lawsuit in Arizona to challenge their rule change.

On the national level, shortly after the DACA initiative was announced, the Obama Administration announced that these young immigrants would not be eligible for provisions of the Affordable Care Act enacted during President Obama’s first term. Before August 30, 2012, DACA-eligible individuals in theory would have been given the same access to health care and health insurance as other individuals granted deferred action. However, an August 28, 2012, announcement by the Administration changes federal rules for DACA-eligible individuals by excluding them from affordable health insurance options that are available to other individuals with deferred action. NILC also explains and tracks efforts to change this policy.

It’s likely that, in the next six months of the program, a range of challenges will arise which may impact application levels—levels which appear to already be tapering off. For example, some argue the first individuals to apply were the simplest, most straightforward cases. DACA applicants should continue to exercise discretion and only apply for the program if they meet the strict requirements, or if they have counsel that can assist and advise them on their eligibility. The American Immigration Council’s Legal Action Center continues to update and publish practice advisories that deal with many of the most difficult legal issues arising in DACA cases.

Application levels to the program may also be affected in the coming months by the perception that national immigration reform legislation is likely to offer a more permanent legalization status. So why apply for DACA when something better is just around the corner? There is also the cost factor for applying, and the trust factor of handing over one’s personal information to immigration agencies. Both are likely to impact application numbers in the coming months. As the program continues to be implemented it is important to keep track of how DACA recipients move forward in their lives with their newly gained temporary legal status, and how the government process works and responds to challenges. Paying attention to both of these areas will tell us a lot about how a more permanent legalization program will shake out for both the applicants and the government agencies implementing it.

  • Has anyone considered the possibility that there are not 1.2 million potential applicants, as CIS originally estimated, or “roughly 936,933 ” as stated herein?

    For anyone potentially eligible, DACA is a no-brainer, especially after Obama won re-election.

    I think the real reason that less than 425.000 have applied so far is that the number of potential beneficiaries was inflated for political purposes. Anyone doing DACA applications, as our firm has, knows that applicants slowed to a trickle after the first three months.

  • Looking at the numbers, I am amazed by the sheer amount of young people impacted by this policy change. Nearly 200,000 young immigrants now have the basic necessities that we take for granted: driving, working, etc. This change could not have happened without all the immigrants’ rights activist organisations. I am just glad that Atlas DIY and I have had some part of this change. A HUGE thank you to everyone working hard to make life better for ALL Americans.

  • Michael A. Olivas

    Not only is it a no-brainer for those who are eligible, but even with this expedited and simplified process, it can take a long period of time to prepare an application correctly–the longer it takes, the longer they remain in unlawful status, unemployable, and uncertifiable (for licensed professions such as teaching, etc).

    Plus, what more do the reluctant eligible DREAMers want? This is a gift horse, and it will not get better until CIR–and we do not yet know how punitive that process will be. I will lay odds that DACA recipients who remain in good standing will have some special treatment that will ease their way to eventual LPR and USC status with CIR. Those who wait until then will have more difficulty, and surely will take a longer period of time in a queue of some sort.

    And either of these will likely require even more invasive and more personal details–and probably a great cost than the $485–so why wait? It will never get better than this, and many people have worked hard to get the process this far, including regularly doing pro bono advising and going to court for the lareger DACA-related issues.

    Anyone who advises eligible DREAMers to dodge this process should be ashamed of themselves. It has been a lifesaver, and is testament to what collective action can do and what discretionary authority is available to any President.

  • That was awesome!thanks for sharing it.But i need proper idea about legalization status?

  • Pingback: February 2013 USCIS Figures Show Continuing Drop in Deferred Action Applications |()

  • Franklin Pereira

    Will changing my address during the wait after I filed for DACA affect in any way and or delay the process?

Newcomers to Microwave Week

At Murrietta Circuits, we have exhibited in our share of trade shows over the last few years, so when our friend Judy Warner, of Zentech Manufacturing, recommended we check out IMS we were very open-minded. Once we reviewed the website, we quickly agreed with Judy that this would be the perfect venue to showcase Murrietta Circuits and the eSurface technology that we offer.

We are “newcomers” to IMS and with that comes new opportunities.  We have been in business for about 35 years and during that time we’ve been involved in programs for the military; drones and wireless communications, aerospace; satellites and radar, medical; implantable devices and controllers for devices.  These are all very interesting and exciting programs and we take great pride in the quality of service we provide our customers.

That being said, when something new and “cutting-edge” comes along, you can bet our ears perk up.  That’s where “Wearable Technology” comes in!!  It’s a very broad term that covers a LOT of different products and the technology seems to change daily.  You run the gambit from medical device sensors used to monitor a patient’s vitals, to athletes using a multitude of devices to track their performance, and my personal favorite are the “fitbit” type of devices.

These devices were created for the mere mortals among us who aren’t trying to break world records in running, getting their NFL contract renewed or swimming across the Atlantic in two days.  No, these devices are for everyone.  So let’s turn the IMS #WearableWednesday” into a “Wearable Week.” Hey, why not? Beyond the nagging-gadget aspect of it all, it really does serve an important purpose by helping us become more aware of our daily habits and hopefully helps us make changes that will improve our lives, society and the world.

Here’s where it gets really exciting!! Having recently partnered with eSurface Technologies, the way our circuit boards are designed and manufactured have changed. What this means for the RF and Microwave community is that we can hold tighter, more consistent tolerances between traces, make smaller traces, while offering unprecedented peel strength—all of which means better performance and reliability. While very much a young technology, it is clear that it has the potential to radically benefit companies in the wearables market, telecom, medical devices, UAVs, and a whole host of defense applications.

In a short period of time we have been able to consistently achieve +/- .0005 mil tolerances on traces, and we have gone from being able to offer minimum .004 mil traces to .001 mil traces—all in a matter of a few months!

So, we are very excited to join the ranks of IMS exhibitors this year, where Murrietta Circuits will be showing off one of THE Hottest Technologies under the Sun! Make sure to come by and see us at Booth #1542.

We look forward to seeing you in Phoenix!!
