From lasers and marshmallow shooters to tech workshops and TED-style talks, Palo Alto's colorful and eclectic celebration of hacking had something for just about every one of the roughly 5,000 visitors who spread out around Lytton Plaza during the National Day of Civic Hacking on June 1.
But for organizers, some of the event's most intriguing and potentially game-changing bits occurred away from the spotlight, in conference rooms, break-out sessions and design workshops. Jonathan Reichental, Palo Alto's chief information officer and the event's official maestro, said he was "ecstatic" about the turnout at the event and the excitement it generated in the community, particularly among the hundreds of youngsters who spent the sweltering afternoon playing with robots or exploring a 3-D printer, a laser-etching machine or the myriad inventions on display -- from a giant walking pod that Scott Parenteau put together for shelter at Burning Man to a small plastic box called Adori, which allows users to rewind and fast forward the broadcast from their car radios (Adori inventor Nathan Iyer, who is trying to KickStart this project to life, said he was inspired by his son's insistence to hear a Maroon 5 song again -- a request that cannot be met with standard radio technology).
Though Palo Alto was one of 96 cities staging hackathons, Reichental said the city's event was "10 times bigger than the next biggest hackathon in the country" and was singled out in a White House briefing.
From the city's perspective, the ideas that came out of the event were even more valuable than the toys and gadgets. From City Manager James Keene linking America's present-day democratic tensions to the 1804 duel between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr to top technologists working with the city's Chief People Officer Kathy Shen to build apps promoting a healthy community, the event offered plenty of cerebral food for the civic-minded thinker. Here are a few choice morsels:
REDRAWING THE SQUARE: For James Keene, the CEO of a city proud of its inclusive, democratic and at times mind-numbingly thorough "process," the tension between getting things done and respecting public participation is a fact of everyday life. At his TED-style talk Saturday, Keene spoke at length about the "paradoxical tension" in America's political tradition, which he traced back to the duel on the Hudson between Vice President Aaron Burr, a devout, small-government Jeffersonian, and Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton, a pragmatic, strong-government federalist. The two represented, in Keene's view, the two sides of America's political system -- Jefferson's commitment to freedom and liberty and his belief in the wisdom of the crowds, and Hamilton's enterprising spirit and commitment to a strong government and a robust economy.
Keene presented three models of governance, each of which carries significant implications for the public. There's the triangle, a hierarchical shape in which the bureaucracy is on top and the users are "clients" of the lawmakers (think Hamilton). There's the circle, which has no hierarchy and in which users are "neighbors" (think Jefferson). But it's the square, Keene said, that "we don't pay enough attention to." That's where the public plays the role of "citizens" who help the lawmakers create the future the community wants. He pointed to Cairo's Tahrir Square, the launch pad for Egypt's revolution, and -- a less dramatic but more pertinent example -- to Lytton Plaza itself, site of what organizers labeled CityCamp Palo Alto. He encouraged visitors to use "hacking" as a way to "disrupt things" and "improve the software of self-government in our society."
"Today is more than a hackathon," Keene declared. "CityCamp itself is an exercise in self-government."
A BLEAK NEW WORLD: "Revolutions are great to read about, but sometimes they kind of suck when you go through them," futurist Paul Saffo told a group during a fireside-chat-style discussion at Lytton Plaza. Saffo's talk was titled "The Bay Area's future as a city-state." Cities, he said, define their power by the hinterlands they control, with the Bay Area's "natural environment" running up and down Sacramento River. But as questions from the audience came in, the talk quickly turned to inequality and unemployment -- trends that the technological revolution isn't necessarily helping. In the past, technological innovation created at least as many jobs as it took away and the challenge was retraining the work force for the new positions. In the modern world of robots and automation, that's no longer the case.
"That changed some time during the dot-com revolution," Saffo said. "For the first time, we were no longer making more jobs than we're destroying."
He gave the example of Facebook, which in 2011 generated $3.7 million in revenues with a workforce of 2,500, productivity that he called "breathtaking." And the employees of Twitter, which is often credited for fanning revolutionary flames across the world, can all fit inside Lytton Plaza. Saffo said he doesn't expect the trend toward fewer workers to abate.
"It's just a matter of time before we have some big IPO success of a company where it turns out that all it has is a CEO and a board of directors and no employees," Saffo said.
CITIZEN'S ARREST: Ending street crime is an ambitious and possibly impossible goal, but that didn't stop some of the brightest minds at Palo Alto's technological celebrations from giving it a hack. In one of four "idea hackathons" that the city sponsored, a group of coders led by HP focused on the topic of "resilience" and ways for technology to play a role. One proposal that came out of the discussion was for a "virtual neighborhood watch."
"The notion is: 'How can we use this new technology -- smartphones, Internet connectivity, GPS and various types of predictive technologies -- to be able to help enable a virtual neighborhood watch," Palo Alto Chief Information Officer Jonathan Reichental said. "There's a solution somewhere there."
The goal is to come up with a digital equivalent of "Guardian Angels," the citizen-vigilante group that was founded in 1979 and whose members are easily identified by their red berets.
"We're in the 21st Century now and the question is: Is there an appropriate and legal way to do this use the best of technology? We'll solve it. Not in a day, but in the next few months."
AN APP A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY: "How can we make our community healthier?" That's the question Palo Alto's Chief People Officer Kathryn Shen asked the throngs of people who passed by the city's booth at the Saturday hackathon. Whether it's because people care about health or because the city bribed passersby with recycled-paper notebooks, the responses arrived in droves. By the time Shen kicked off the late afternoon "idea hackathon" on health, the city's bulletin board was covered with colorful sticky notes bearing messages such as "Don't litr" and "Recucle more," as well as requests for healthier food options and more exercise. "The best ideas came from the kids," Shen said.
Solutions, meanwhile, were mostly adult-driven. Two of the most promising ones that came out of the hackathon focused on fitness. One app would allow members of the community to join competitive teams based on their interests (running, volleyball, etc.) and accumulate "social currency" for each physical activity. The "coins" earned would be redeemable at area shops or would net prizes. Another idea focused on seniors and would allow them to easily find companions -- two- or four-legged ones -- to stroll with.
"A lot of studies have shown that particularly for elders in the community, if there's a connection, if there are people to talk to and some accessible park, maybe when they can do a walk-around. That connection promotes health." Shen said she expects these apps to be submitted to the city in about four weeks.
Her favorite sticky note, she said, read, "Greet strangers."
"If we talk to each other more and make more connections, we'll be a stronger community, and we'll actually be healthier."
WHAT'S THE 3-1-1? Successful startups may get all the glory in the Brave New World of high-tech innovation, but the City of Palo Alto is taking pride in its own enterprising ethos. In the coming months, it plans to bring wireless access to prominent downtown plazas (Cogswell and Lytton). Mayor Greg Scharff also predicted Saturday that the city will bring ultra-high-speed fiber-based Internet access to all residences within two years -- a bold pronouncement given that the prize has eluded the city for the past two decades. But one new product that did come online this week is Palo Alto 3-1-1, an app that allows users to check out library books, keep up with government activities and easily inform City Hall about potholes, graffiti and other signs of blight. All a user has to do is take a photo and the app sends the GPS location of the blighted area to Public Works, which would then make the needed repairs. "Now, as a city, we're actively looking for new apps and technologies that make our cities more efficient and improve our quality of life and the 'user experience,'" Scharff said during his remarks at Lytton Plaza.

'Revenge porn' website's time is up
A "revenge porn" site containing nude photos of women, which in recent weeks has generated a class action lawsuit, national media attention and landslide web traffic, is offline for good, even though the site's purported operator adamantly defends its original concept.
John S. Morgan, a Beaumont attorney who filed suit two weeks ago on behalf of more than two dozen local women, said GoDaddy.com, the company that hosted the website Texxxan.com, shut it down last week, citing copyright infringement.
Morgan claimed Friday that GoDaddy had told him it would hand over IP addresses for the site's operators and users in two weeks.
A man who identified himself as "James Smith" in a series of emails last week - he said the name is false, "though my first name is Jim" - said he had disabled the home page but admitted the site's days were numbered anyway.
"Smith," who demonstrated familiarity with the site's workings, said its 12-month lease with GoDaddy was up Feb. 12. "Even if it wasn't, GoDaddy would be taking (the site) down since it was set up in violation of their Terms of Service," he said.
On Jan. 19, Morgan sued Texxxan.com and GoDaddy.com in an Orange County court on behalf of women whose nude photographs had appeared on the site for invasion of privacy, gross negligence, emotional distress and civil conspiracy under Texas law.
Since then, the site has operated intermittently, with various notices of explanation and assertions of free speech posted on its home page. It has been inaccessible since last week.
The website had posted explicit photographs of women and personal information without their permission, which Morgan referred to as "cyber-rape."
Such websites are called "revenge porn" sites because they often contain photos posted by ex-boyfriends and rejected lovers.
Morgan said the site coming down "has no effect" on the lawsuit.
Still, he said, "It does have a good effect in that these women will no longer be victimized by that site."
Morgan said the lawsuit has grown from about two dozen women to 30 and that he expects more to join.
In a series of emails last week, "Smith" answered some questions and not others about Texxxan.com and its operations, as well as revenge porn. He did not say whether he would start another site with the same content.
"The info has already been migrated to a new server," he said in one of the emails, several of which he signed "Cheers- James Smith."
The debate
Two of the lawsuit plaintiffs appeared last Thursday on the syndicated talk show, "Anderson Live," detailing the embarrassment and harassment they have endured because of the site.
"Smith," who spoke by telephone with his voice distorted, argued that the site's users and the men who submitted photos are the ones who should be legally pursued for causing the women pain.
"He's a coward," Toups said. The phone conversation during the show's taping was her first direct contact with anyone associated with the website, Toups said.
"It was frustrating because I knew that he was hiding still," she said. "He wanted to put his two cents in while protecting his privacy, which is ironic because he's definitely not protecting ours.
If you're not guilty of anything, why hide?"
In emails "Smith" was sometimes flippant, other times vehement, but never apologetic. He consistently deflected responsibility for the photos onto the women.
"The media and the women all holler about how immoral we are and how we're supposedly ruining peoples' lives. Yet the women forever fail to take responsibility for their actions and their poor romantic choices," he said.
"And the women still keep taking their clothes off and allowing their boyfriends to take porno pictures of them, and they get all hysterical when their pics end up online like they didn't know that could happen and how people could be so mean ... yadda, yadda, yadda."
Morgan said he has received up to 200 media inquiries a day since the lawsuit started appearing in international media outlets about a week ago. A woman who runs the website EndRevengePorn.com said traffic to her site - and signatures on an online petition - have tripled since the lawsuit hit the news.
Toups said she is glad she was able to use major media outlets like "Nightline" and "Good Morning America" to spread what she sees is as important message.
"I'm really glad that it's been picked up because it's educating the public on an issue that 90 percent of the population had no idea even existed," she said. "It's also allowed victims to realize they do have options."
The beginning
"Smith" said his daughter started the Texxxan.com site while attending SMU in Dallas. "It started as a kind of 'slam' site and just spiraled from there," he said.
He said that when originally set up, the site basically ran itself, so he paid little attention to it and relied on his daughter to maintain it.
He said she gave the password to friends who were helping her, and in the past couple months the site "degenerated into a bunch of porn and get-rich-quick spam ads, with a bunch of Craig's List escorts thrown in for good measure. "
"So instead of a cool-looking revenge porn site where folks trash each other, it turned into a bunch of bull - that was too much of a hassle to untie and fix up," he said.
The lies
The lawsuit identified "Kris Kronowski" in Richardson as the website's contact and gave an address for delivery of the lawsuit.
"Smith" said the name and address were fake, which was a violation of Go Daddy's terms of service. Of the information GoDaddy was provided, he said, "The only thing real was the number for the pre-paid credit card that was used to set it up."
His daughter came up with the administrative contact's name by combining a shortened form of her middle name, Kristina, and the last name of an ex-boyfriend she met while in college in Boston. "Yeah, I know it's stupid, but whatever," he said.
He said he has "eight such sites all together," which he runs "as a bit of a side line."
He said all of the sites are set up with fake information, which is standard practice in the revenge porn "industry."
"Of course, GoDaddy has absolutely no way to verify anyone's signup info anymore than Facebook can. They host like 50 million websites," he said.
Morgan is confident the lawsuit process will yield more.
"We're gonna find this guy," he said. "I mean it."
The motive
Who knows "Smith"'s motivation?
In his first email, he said, "I just sit back and laugh while making a pile of money off these kinds of websites."
When asked for specifics, he said the cost to run Texxxan.com is "nil" and he actually makes little money off it. On Thursday's talk show, he referred to his website operations as a hobby.
In another email he said no subscribers paid to view the content on Texxxan.com. "Who is gonna pay for that crap?"
He said he made about $2,000 from people who signed up to post photos and about $100 a month from selling users' email addresses to "spammers" and from clicks on third-party ads.
"Nik Richie gets paid," he said, referring to the blogger and Internet personality. "Not us."
When asked by email why he continues to run controversial "revenge porn" sites, he responded offhandedly.
"'Cuz it's funny watching people rage over something on the interwebs," he said.

MIAMI — You could hear Dwyane Wade's voice bellowing through the Miami Heat locker room in the final seconds.
"Ballgame," he yelled as the final seconds ticked off the clock.
That was hours before Wade's Miami Heat had finished off the Charlotte Bobcats for their 26th straight win. That yelling came from the Heat training room, where Wade was parked for treatment on the sore right knee that kept him out of the Heat's 109-77 demolition of the lowly Charlotte Bobcats, who had the unenviable task of bringing the worst record in the NBA to AmericanAirlines Arena Sunday night for their matchup against the team with the best record in the league.
Wade's college coach, Tom Crean, and his Indiana Hoosiers needed all the energy they could get, even from afar, to get past Temple and clinch their Sweet Sixteen berth in the NCAA Tournament.
The Heat obviously didn't miss a beat without Wade in the lineup, the extent of his work here Sunday night included him subbing for Fox Sports Florida's Sun Sports courtside analyst Jason Jackson and interviewing James on the court seconds after the game ended.
When asked how Wade compared to Jackson as an interviewer, James was brutally honest in his assessment.
"He's got a lot of work to do," James said before cracking a smile. "Jack is one of the best, so he shouldn't feel bad. D-Wade did a good job, though. He looked good, too."
Just as they have every game since Feb. 3, the Heat found just the right formula to brush the Bobcats aside. And therein lies the beauty of what's going on with this team. No matter the circumstance or situation, they continue to handle their business by any means necessary.
"Our guys get it," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "They get when it's time to go."
They also know when it's time to let go. All the fun that comes along with the streak is a product of a team that's more comfortable in its own skin than they have been since they were assembled.
"We're having a blast," Chris Bosh said after celebrating his 29th birthday with win No. 26 in the streak. "Best team I've ever been on. Best team I've ever been on. People like to say it, but we always have fun. And we work hard but we played hard, too. That's something when it's always hard to find that balance. It's just something we do a fantastic job of here is just knowing that we have a chance to win. That's huge. But having a good time at the same time, it's important. Those are the things we'll remember."
The challenge of maintaining this streak grows considerably tougher with the last extended road trip of the Heat's regular season. They've run the gauntlet during the course of the streak. Seventeen different teams have tried to solve the Heat during this run and 17 have failed. The Lakers' record 33-game streak looks as attainable as ever with the Heat braced for a four-game road trip that kicks off Monday in Orlando and makes stop in Chicago (Wednesday), New Orleans (Friday) and San Antonio (Sunday).
"Well, I'd rather be home," Bosh said. "We just got back. But it's okay. We have to continue to play well on the road. We have some huge challenges ahead of us. A lot of places where you can't just come in and mosey in and think you're going to win the game. We're playing a Orlando team that has pushed us to the brink twice. New Orleans beat Memphis the other night. Chicago is Chicago and San Antonio is San Antonio. We have our work ahead of us. But it's like I've always said, we can't get too ahead of ourselves. We take care of our business one game at a time."
That becomes increasingly difficult with all of the outside attention paid to the streak in the places the Heat will visit over the course of the next seven days. The Heat already have the burden of being the reigning NBA champions and now they show up with streak, cranking up the intensity of each game even more.
"Yeah, that's all they hear about even when they are not playing us," Bosh said. "It's 'What do you think about the streak?' First they get pissed and then when they finally play us it's, 'hey, let's knocks these guys off.' That gives them extra incentive. But I think it's a healthy exercise for us because we are playing with something to lose. And that's how it is every night in the playoffs, so we'll have a good rhythm when we get there."
Only time will tell if they get there, to the postseason, with the streak intact. As crazy as it sounds, it's not outside the realm of possibility for a team that continues to win at a record-setting pace.

Sure, Steven Bongiovanni, a bartender for almost 15 years, knows how to make many drinks.
But when Bongiovanni, manager of the Original Pocono Pub in Bartonsville, was asked why he thought he was voted best bartender in the Poconos in a recent Pocono Record survey, he said he didn't necessarily think it had to do with the drinks.
It probably had to do more, he said, with his approach as a bartender and the atmosphere he helps create in the bar.
Bongiovanni, 43, said he has always believed that his bar should be a place where people are smiling and laughing, where they feel as safe and welcomed as they do at home, and where they can pour out their worries and get feedback from the staff.
"I just learned that a bartender needs to be patient and compassionate. Because you never know what that person who just sat down is harboring," said Bongiovanni, who has worked at the Original Pocono Pub on Route 611 for 11 years.
Bongiovanni, originally from Brooklyn, said he tries to warmly greet everyone who comes through the establishment's front doors — regular or newcomer.
"I think that's the mark of a good bartender, how they greet you right off the bat," Bongiovanni said.
When he's working, Bongiovanni said he tries to read the customers' expressions or body language to get a sense of the mood they're in, then tries to engage them in conversation in an appropriate manner.
And while he enjoys having fun and creating a fun atmosphere behind the bar — he and fellow bartenders are known to sing along to Frank Sinatra songs and joke with each other — he also wants patrons to know the staff is there for them.
"There have been times when people come in here and they're scowling, looking all mad and upset, and either my staff or I will be like, straight up, 'Do you need a hug?' And they'll take it."
But don't mistake Bongiovanni's kindness for weakness. Bongiovanni is tall and brawny, with arms covered in tattoos. There have been times when people have gotten out of line at the bar, and Bongiovanni has thrown them out himself, slamming the front door in their faces.
"Again, a bar should really be safe place," he said. "A bar should be the kind of place where you can run out for a second, leave your wife or your sister, and know that she won't get hassled."
Sharon DeFino, who owns the Original Pocono Pub, agreed.
"Let me tell you, for all the time that Steven has worked here, I have never once felt threatened or had to worry about anything happening in this bar. He has been such a gift to us in so many ways."
Bongiovanni, who scarcely ever drinks alcohol, says he plans on staying at the Pocono Pub for years to come.
Though he cares a great deal about preserving a certain atmosphere in the bar, he also obviously cares a lot about the craft of drink making. He continually learns how to make new cocktails.
"I just learned to make this crazy version of an Electric Lemonade the other day," he said. And he tweaks the ones that need tweaking.
But, in all honesty, Bongiovanni says, "You don't even need to have an alcoholic drink when you come here. You know how many people stop by here for coffee? Everyone is equally respected and they're equally welcomed."
Poconos' best bartender

The second week of battle rounds on NBC's "The Voice" brought a slew of questionable fashion decisions and equally questionable song choices. But "questionable" doesn't always mean less delightful.
Twelve contestants went head-to-head tonight, with six moving on to the live shows; all told, Christina's nearly whittled her team in half (she's at eight) while Blake and Cee Lo have cut only three contestants total. Adam's pulling up the rear with only two battle rounds so far, but I'm sure he'll catch up.
Here's what happened tonight.
Team Christina
Geoff McBride versus Sera Hill: Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools"
Great song, great voices, and some sage advice from at least one of the guest coaches, as Jewel assures Sera that sincerity outweighs volume in any battle. Lionel Richie's advice for Geoff? "It's all about the eye contact," urging him to remove his sunglasses – you know, the ones that allow him to see. Vanity is poor advice, and in the end, it didn't really matter.
Christina's Pick: Sera Hill
Lee Koch versus Lindsey Pavao: Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box"
Eesh, I forgot about hipster Lindsey, with her adorable half-shaved head and weird, wicked vocals. Pairing her up against Lee – the baker and Bob Dylan cover-er – is just plain mean. The song was solid, and truthfully, Lindsey had a much better grasp of it. Lee was told during coaching that he needed more conviction – well, how could one sing the words "I wish I could eat your cancer" and NOT feel conviction? He needed to enunciate more clearly, too, Christina told him, but if he did work on that, it didn't come through in the performance. He was nearly as inarticulate a singer as Kurt Cobain was.
Christina's Pick: Lindsey Pavao
Team Blake
Charlotte Sometimes versus Lex Land: Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks"
Charlotte had the better stage presence, but Lex had the better voice; it's a matter of personal preference, admittedly, but Lex's soft-spoken breathiness is calming and sexy at the same time. Charlotte's voice is strong and interesting, but downright irksome. And I say again, what the hell kind of name is "Charlotte Sometimes"? Lex took risks with her range and runs, but Charlotte was more consistent, and ultimately, I disagree with Blake on this one. Want to know when I like Charlotte Sometimes? None of the times.
Blake's Pick: Charlotte Sometimes
Team Cee Lo
Sarah Golden versus Juliet Simms: Rod Stewart's "Stay With Me"
Heavens, this song was basically written for Juliet, with her raspy, gravelly voice. This was an awful match – she and Sarah have such different styles, sounds and approaches. The song choice just seemed like an unfair tipping of the scales in Juliet's favor, because she absolutely killed it, and poor Sarah didn't seem to stand a chance. "This song didn't do your voice justice," Christina told Sarah, before weighing in that Juliet should win.
Cee Lo's Pick: Juliet Simms
Jamie Lono versus Jamar Rogers: Foreigner's "I Want to Know What Love Is"
Poor Jamie. What a voice, and what a bad song choice for it. He was out of his element, and while Jamar took off into the power-ballad stratosphere, Jamie just kind of died on the runway. His performance was "meh," but maybe it was just "meh" in comparison to Jamar's work on this epicness. I want to go see Jamie in a coffeehouse. I want to go see Jamar in an arena. And holy crap, the waterworks. Tears and emotions were flying around that studio like no one's business, most of the glorious mess hinging on Jamar's struggle with HIV and Jamie sobbing how wonderful it was to see his friend succeed.
Cee Lo's Pick: Jamar Rogers
Team Adam
Whitney Myer versus Kim Yarbrough: Mary J. Blige's "No More Drama"
Oh, but this was in fact dramatic! What a song, and what a great pairing with Chaka Khan-esque Kim against curls-and-feathers Whitney. Adam urged Whitney not to try to outsing Kim, because what a fool's errand that would be! This was a powerhouse of a performance, with each killing it in her own way. Cee Lo noted that the song was about acceptance, growth and maturity, and contrasted Kim's "seniority" (she's 50, remember?) with Whitney's "underclassmen," and upperclassmen always have the upper hand.
Adam's Pick: Kim Yarbrough
Stupid Outfit of the Night: What the fresh crap was Juliet wearing? Oh, let's put on some leather cuffs. And some leather shorts. And over-the-knee boots. And patterned tights. And a Janis Joplin headband. Let's talk fashion for a second. Since my outfits always seem to fall into the androgynous chic, drifter bum or colorful classicism camps, I am immediately disqualified from offering any fashion criticism. But really, didn't Coco Chanel once say that before you leave the house, you should take one thing off? It's advice against over-accessorizing Juliet should have heeded.
Awesome Outfit of the Night: That delightful sweater Jamie Lono was rockin'. He out-sweatered Adam Levine, and that's saying a lot. And red glasses look good on everyone, but especially Jamie.
In order to take a break from speculating on what exactly is on Christina's head, let's take wild guesses as to what sports Cee Lo could have possibly played in high school – he does look as if he's wearing a varsity jacket, no? I can see him participating in some track and field events, like the discus throw or something, what with his girth. Maybe golf? Or, let's be honest, my high school gave out varsity jackets for being in band. Cee Lo was totally on the drum line.
The most important takeaway here is that Blake Shelton is a Foster the People fan, and that he'd never heard of Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box." "If I wanted 'creepy,' I'd have gone with 'Monster Mash,'" he said. Ladies and gentleman, the precious conundrum that is Blake Shelton continues.

Energy conservation is imposed as a constraint when determining the temperature in xstar when the input parameter niter is non-zero. If so, the temperature is iteratively improved until the heating and cooling rates are locally equal. This is implemented by calculating the integral over the absorbed and emitted continuum energy in a given spatial zone, and also the sum over the energy emitted in the lines. Compton heating and cooling are added analytically, since Comptonization of the radiation field is not treated. The error resulting from this procedure is tabulated in the log file 'xout_step.log' in the 8th column of the step-by-step output, in units of .
Energy conservation locally should correspond to global energy conservation, i.e. that the total absorbed energy in the radiation field equals the total emitted energy in lines plus continuum. This is tested at each spatial zone in xstar by calculating . The error resulting from this procedure is tabulated in the log file 'xout_step.log' in the 9th column of the step-by-step output, in units of .
It is important to point out that the specific luminosities in the file 'xout_spect1.fits' 'xout_cont1.fits' are not expected, in general, to show energy conservation. This is primarily because the transmitted spectra in both of these files contain the effects of binned lines. Line opacity is expected to produce a scattering event, i.e. the photon is likely to be reemitted near the same energy. This differs qualitatively from photoelectric absorption, in which an absorbed photon is likely to be reemitted at a very different energy, with an accompanying net loss or gain of energy to the electron thermal bath. Line opacity is not included in the radiative equilibrium integral used to calculate the gas temperature, and so the total absorbed energy in the radiation field will in general not equal the emitted energy in . Energy conservation can be checked using the quantities , and from the file xout_step.log.
Energy conservation checked using binned line spectra is also affected by the errors introduced by binning. This is discussed at length in the section of this manual on table models for xspec, but we emphasize here that the binned spectrum cannot be accurately integrated to derive the total line absorption or emission unless the lines are broad compared with the energy grid spacing (requiring turbulent velocities 500 km/s currently).

|The Sofrito
After the Holidays, I usually scour the grocery to see what is on sale. At my local Kroger, I found some frozen packages of BEAUTIFUL shrimp. I scooped up two packages and threw them in the freezer waiting for a perfect dinner inspiration.
Looking through the freezer a few nights ago I spied those shrimp, some frozen (sorry my friends in France) mussels.....as well as some random chicken pieces. You know where this is heading, right? Paella!
But where did my favorite recipe go? I have been making this for years, I got if off the Weber Grill site. Now that the dinner was planned the recipe was no where to be found. I started searching on the web.....no luck. I typed in the gent who presented the recipe, Mr. Jamie Purvaiance. Still no luck, only a link where I could buy his book.
I finally stumbled on WeberNation, right where I left it when I lived in France. Now I'm cookin'!
|The finished dish
If you do take a look at the little video, you will notice he prepares the Paella on the Weber. We have done this many times. Winter in Kentucky, a mild winter it is right now....still didn't tempt me outdoors to the BBQ. I made it on the hob and I must say, it was a great success! Moral to the story, shop the sales at the grocery and get a bit more organized with those old recipe files and links!

We've been here before: MS tweaks volume licensing site again
Partners prep brollies for November rain
Microsoft will once again overhaul its error-prone volume licensing website in November, following months of glitches with the portal since Redmond relaunched it late last year.
The company's global partner boss Eric Ligman confirmed in a blog post today that Microsoft would tweak the service, after customers continued to complain about problems that have dogged the site.
"We have reached out to many partners and customers around the world through Live Meetings, interviews, hands-on usability studies, forums, and events to gather input and feedback on how to improve the VLSC [Volume Licensing Service Center]," Ligman said.
He then went on to somberly note that: "We take this feedback seriously and are continually incorporating suggestions into the VLSC."
The latest round of major updates – there have been several since the relaunch in December 2009 – are set for November.
Nearly a year on since the less-than-pretty overhaul, Microsoft will be hoping to draw a line under the whole sorry affair.
Ligman said the firm would add offline access to VLSC licensing and relationship summaries, improve the Add Open License functionality, and give customers the power to deny reseller access to their information via an email notification option.
"We will be communicated [sic] more details and providing training materials in October," he said.
In December Microsoft's volume licensing websites were yanked offline for over a week while the software giant tweaked its service in a move to "improve the licensing management experience" for the firm's users.
Come January this year Microsoft had no choice but to apologise to its partners and customers who struggled to gain access to the VLSC site, or worse, were served up with the wrong login details. ®

Rheumatoid Arthritis on Women's HourSeptember 14, 2009 at 9:12 pm | Posted in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | Leave a comment
Tags: appointments, NHS, NICE, Norfolk & Norwich, R.A., Radio 4, Rheumatoid arthritis, rituximab, treatment, Women's Hour
There was a little feature about R.A. on Women's Hour on radio 4 a couple of weeks ago. Nothing Earth shatteringly new for those in the know, but quite interesting. It was talking about trialling the use of rituximab early on in the disease, instead of doing as NICE now recommend and not letting people have it until they've failed three or four other biologics. It's here.
One bit that caught my ear was this, a quote from Dr John Isaacs at Newcastle: "One thing that all rheumatologists are pleased about is that NICE are confirming what we've been saying for years, which is that we need to be more aggressive with this disease. So previously patients like Wendy would be seen perhaps once every three months, or once every six months, and now we're being told that certainly in the early stages of the disease we need to see patients every month, and if treatments aren't working then we need to be escalating treatments, changing therapies …"
Well I'm not sure how pleased the Norfolk and Norwich are about the new guidelines. "We can't possibly manage to see people every three months. We'll see you every six months if you're lucky."
These are the sorts of things a positive thinking, celebratory penguin will be trying not to say in Spain next week!

The TouchPad is dead, but Hewlett-Packard is giving it a hell of a wake. HP has slashed the price of its $399 tablet computer to $99 after killing the product on Thursday, sparking a buying frenzy.
Finally, an Apple competitor has found a price low enough to start an online shopping stampede. And why not? Sure it's bulkier than an iPad, the battery life is relatively poor, and it's got just one camera -- instead of two, but 99 bucks seems pretty good for anything with a 1.2 Ghz Snapdragon processor and an operating system with the ease of use and sophistication of WebOS.
Don't do it. That's because tablets are all about apps. There are just few hundred apps available for the TouchPad,
compared to several hundred thousand for the iPad and for rivals running Android compared to more than 100,000 iOS apps that have been optimized for the iPad and more than 1,000 for tablets running Android (and that figure doesn't count the several hundred thousand apps built originally for phones that can also run on these devices). Worse yet, with HP killing its entire WebOS product line, there's no reason to believe more are coming.
That may not seem like a big deal. A few months from now, however, people will be talking about a new game or a new application. If you've got Apple's iPad or an Android tablet such as Acer's Iconia and Toshiba's Thrive, it's probably going to cost you just 99 cents to get it. If you've only got a TouchPad, you're going to have to buy a whole new tablet.
And if you've already got an iPad, why bother?
P.S. -- In a classy move, HP is offering refunds to anyone who bought the TouchPad for full price.

Old for New
Apart from the staggering news that hot drinks can help a cold, and that dogs feel jealousy, this month I have again read that patients will be able to rate their GPs online. Perhaps I'm suffering from festive fever, but I'm sure I read something like this and blogged on it about a year ago.
Has the public now become so gullible that it really is acceptable to publish as news things that have existed for days, months, years, even? Earlier this year the media broadcast the comments of McMillan-Scott MEP, who said if the UK had a system such as the US Amber Alert, Shannon Matthews would have been found sooner. It didn't seem to matter that the Child Alert was started in 2003 with the backing of Milly Dowler's parents, or that between 2004-2006, Child Rescue Alert was gradually adopted up by all UK forces. (And that's overlooking the basic truth that an Alert would not have found Shannon because her mother already knew where she was.)
The trouble with this endless regurgitation of news is that the public are now encouraged to flare up at the slightest thing, rant about it for a week, and then put it down and forget about it until it's mentioned again some time later.
We are becoming a nation of goldfish, with small excitements, small fears, and smaller hopes and dreams.
Is it wrong that I still desire to save the world, whether it wants saving or not?

Want to know how difficult it is to teach China foreign investment law? Less than two months ago I told my students about capital account restrictions and the influence of hot money and financial speculators on the approval process for cross-border capital flows.
That information is now out of date:
China will clear the way for foreign investors' capital to flow in and out of the country more easily by waiving and simplifying regulations, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, said on Wednesday.
Starting on Dec 17, foreign investors won't need to get regulatory approval to open bank accounts, remit profits, and transfer money between different domestic accounts, it said.
And the limits on the number of foreign-currency accounts and the amount of money that can be transferred will also be loosened, it added.
Good news for some of my clients, but now I have to supplement my class lecture. The fun, it never ends.

Anze Kopitar said he didn't know anything was wrong until he saw Jeff Carter wearing a walking boot at the Kings' El Segundo practice facility Friday. Carter suffered an unspecified lower-body injury during the Kings' overtime victory Wednesday over the San Jose Sharks.
The Kings were expected to place him on injured reserve later in the day and announce the promotion of one or more players from their American Hockey League affiliate in Manchester, N.H. They also placed Keaton Ellerby on waivers earlier Friday.
"It's definitely tough to see whenever a player goes down, regardless of who he is," Kopitar said after the Kings' practice. "With Jeff, it's definitely a loss for us, but that's the way it is. We're going to have to find a way to score goals, put up points and win hockey games at the end of the day.
"So, with him or without him, we're going to have to do that. It's certainly a loss. We've got the confidence in here that we're going to pick up whatever needs to be picked up. Personally, I'll go out there and do the same stuff over and over again. That's really all I can do, and all anybody else can do."
Carter is tied with Justin Williams for the team lead with five goals in 14 games. Carter was the Kings' top goal scorer last season with 26 during the 48-game, lockout-shortened season. He was second on the club with 33 points, trailing only Kopitar'd 42.
Kings coach Darryl Sutter bristled when asked about Carter. Like most teams in the NHL, the Kings are loathe to divulge injury news and follow league media relations standards by describing them as upper body, lower body or mid-body. It's believed Carter suffered a foot injury.
"Where do you get your information from?" Sutter asked. "Is there someone in the organization who told you? You go talk to them. There were several players who weren't out there today. I'm disappointed information was given to you before it was given to us. That's disappointing."
Sutter did not mention the other players absent from practice and also declined to say how the Kings would replace Carter for tonight's home game against the Nashville Predators. Because of salary-cap concerns, the club had to make a move or two to recall anyone from the minor leagues.
"We've had injuries in the past," Kopitar said. "It's definitely not nice when you lose a guy, but at the end of the day you can't do anything about it until he gets better and comes back. You can't mope around. It's an excuse. We've got a bunch of guys here who want to score and produce.
"I'm sure everybody's going to step up."
Statistical corner
The Kings are 8-3-0 in their last 11 games. … Kopitar's goal in overtime of the Kings' 4-3 victory Thursday over the Sharks was the third of his career, but the first since Dec. 4, 2010 against the Detroit Red Wings. … The Kings are 11-0-1 in their last 12 games, including the playoffs, against San Jose at Staples Center. Four of those wins came during the Kings' second-round playoff victory over the Sharks last spring, underscoring the importance of home-ice advantage in the postseason.

Lately the subject of flying IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) has occupied my time and lots of editorial space. The debate centered on flight into IMC . Although I spend 100% of every day on the subject of Light-Sport Aircraft and other flying machines used for aerial recreation, I can also make mistakes explaining all the ins and outs of the six-year-old regulation abbreviated as SP/LSA. I enlisted Robert Hamilton of Dynon Avionics to help further, who politely explained that I'd made an error.
Rather than tackling this myself, I asked him to contribute. From Robert…"At Dynon we are often asked if our avionic products are 'Certified' for IFR flight. In fact, there is no such thing as 'IFR Certification' for amateur-built and LSA aircraft, and so answering the question requires an explanation."
"The relevant regulation is FAR 91.205, which lists equipment that is required for various types and times of flight: VFR, VFR Night, and IFR. Included for IFR flight are such things as two-way communication and navigation equipment, gyroscopic rate-of-turn indicator, sensitive altimeter, artificial horizon, etc. Most modern digital glass panel avionics meet these requirements for the analog gauges they replace. Interestingly, the definition of 'gyroscopic rate-of-turn' is based on functionality, and so includes solid-state MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) devices which are used in most digital, solid-state AHRS (Attitude Heading Reference Systems). There are many thousands of home-built aircraft legally flying IFR with 'non-certified' Dynon digital avionics.
"Does this mean a LSA with the same digital avionics is IFR legal? The answer to that question must come from the ASTM F37 LSA committee and the aircraft manufacturer. Assuming a LSA is equipped to meet the requirements of FAR 91.205, the avionics equipment is not a restriction. However, the overall aircraft operating limitations are specified by the manufacturer according to the standards written by ASTM committee members and subsequently accepted by FAA."
Hopefully Robert answered the question, but as I've noted earlier, this is not likely the end to the vigorous IFR/IMC discussion.

The Middle East Studies Center at Portland State University (PSU) has developed an online resource for teachers in grades K through 12 that includes some 400 maps, articles, illustrations and photos about the Middle East.
It's launching the site Monday, Nov. 12 in honor of International Education Week, a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education promoting programs that prepare Americans for a global environment.
The Center developed the site, called Middle East Teaching Tools, over the last year in response to demand by teachers.
"I get frequent emails from teachers saying 'I'm teaching a lesson about such-and-such. Can you send me information,'" said Elisheva Cohen, outreach coordinator for the Middle East Studies Center. "I know of nothing else quite like this. There are other organizations that offer lesson plans, but nothing this comprehensive."
Teachers also contributed to the site, and will take part in the ongoing process of keeping it current and making it grow.
To access Middle East Teaching Tools, go to www.middleeastpdx.org/resources.
The Middle East Studies Center started in 1959 as the first federally supported undergraduate program in the nation for Arab language and the study of the Middle East region. It supports academic conferences, workshops, cultural events, lectures and a resource library. PSU's Middle East studies curriculum covers a number of disciplines including foreign language courses in Arabic, Hebrew, Turkish and Persian.

The .Fl v option causes .Nm to print the name if each kext as it finds them. .Sh DIAGNOSTICS .Nm exits with a zero status upon success. Upon failure, it prints an error message and exits with a nonzero status. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr mkextcache 8 .Sh BUGS The mkext file format doesn't record the original filenames of the kexts, so .Nm has to guess at what they are. It does this by using the value of the CFBundleExecutable property of the kext's info dictionary. (Project Builder sets this to the base name of the kext bundle by default, but the developer can change it.) If that property doesn't exist, the last component of the CFBundleIdentifier is used. Duplicates have an incrementing index appended to the name. Kexts that have no executable or CFBundleIdentifier are named .Dq NameUnknown-n.kext , where n is a number.

text: Watch The Lord of the Rings (1978) online free full movie Putlocker and Download in HD quality. Controversial animator Ralph Bakshi's literal adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic fantasy trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, is brought to the screen in a reverent, stilted way, with Bakshi forsaking his sharp-edged animated loneliness for a rotoscoped dullness. Although the film's title encompasses the entire Tolkien trilogy, this longish Bakshi feature, in fact, covers only the first book, The Fellowship of the Ring, and the first half of the second, The Two Towers. Given the complexity of the original story line, this unfortunately means that only those intimately familiar with the books will be able to understand what is happening in the movie. In brief, however, an evil sorcerer from a previous era created a magical ring which enables its users to call upon its tremendous powers to rule the world, but it inevitably warps them to evil. It was believed lost, but during a resurgence of magical evil in the world, Bilbo, a simple, plain-spoken hobbit, recovers it from its hiding place. The forces of good give his nephew Frodo the choice to bear the awful burden of the ring to a place where it may be destroyed. Watch movie online links are given below.

Massive dust storm sweeps South Dakota
A powerful wind strips the topsoil from desiccated farmlands in South Dakota, one of a series of disastrous windstorms that year. The drought-ridden land of the Southern Plains became known as the Dust Bowl; it was useless to farmers, and only exacerbated the economic problems of the Great Depression. Within two days, dust from the South Dakota storm had reached all the way to Albany, New York.
Dust storms plagued the West throughout the 1930s and eventually the devastated area covered nearly 100 million acres. Rising like ominous black clouds on the horizon, the dust storms destroyed crops, choked livestock to death, and damaged human health. During 1938, the worst year of the dust storms, it is estimated that 850 million tons of topsoil disappeared with the winds. The size and scope of the problem have led some historians to call the Dust Bowl the worst environmental disaster in American history.
The cause of the Dust Bowl is still unclear. Widespread drought-which killed crops and turned the topsoil into a light powder-was undoubtedly a factor. However, some have argued that the farmers played their part by replacing native grasses with wheat and less hardy crops.
Whatever the causes, the Roosevelt administration responded to the Dust Bowl with a billion- dollar program to aid and educate farmers in soil conservation techniques that have become standard practice. After the rains returned in 1941, the region bloomed once again. Severe droughts have occurred since, but none have been as devastating as the Dust Bowl days of the 1930s.
