Malcolm Gladwell has a smart article in this month's New Yorker, "None of the Above: What I.Q. doesn't tell you about race." The lesson, it seems, is that intelligence reflects situational differences, not stable dispositional differences across across racial and ethnic groups or national borders.
* * *
James Flynn, a social scientist at the University of Otago, in New Zealand, . . . found something puzzling. . . .
. . . . He collected intelligence-test results from Europe, from North America, from Asia, and from the developing world, until he had data for almost thirty countries. In every case, the story was pretty much the same. I.Q.s around the world appeared to be rising by 0.3 points per year, or three points per decade, for as far back as the tests had been administered. For some reason, human beings seemed to be getting smarter.
Flynn has been writing about the implications of his findings—now known as the Flynn effect—for almost twenty-five years. His books consist of a series of plainly stated statistical observations, in support of deceptively modest conclusions, and the evidence in support of his original observation is now so overwhelming that the Flynn effect has moved from theory to fact. What remains uncertain is how to make sense of the Flynn effect. . . .
For almost as long as there have been I.Q. tests, there have been I.Q. fundamentalists. . . . To the I.Q. fundamentalist, two things are beyond dispute: first, that I.Q. tests measure some hard and identifiable trait that predicts the quality of our thinking; and, second, that this trait is stable—that is, it is determined by our genes and largely impervious to environmental influences.
. . . . [W]hat Flynn discovered in his mailbox upsets the certainties upon which I.Q. fundamentalism rests. If whatever the thing is that I.Q. tests measure can jump so much in a generation, it can't be all that immutable and it doesn't look all that innate.
The very fact that average I.Q.s shift over time ought to create a "crisis of confidence," Flynn writes in "What Is Intelligence?" . . . , his latest attempt to puzzle through the implications of his discovery. "How could such huge gains be intelligence gains? Either the children of today were far brighter than their parents or, at least in some circumstances, I.Q. tests were not good measures of intelligence."
The best way to understand why I.Q.s rise, Flynn argues, is to look at one of the most widely used I.Q. tests, the so-called WISC (for Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children). The WISC is composed of ten subtests, each of which measures a different aspect of I.Q. Flynn points out that scores in some of the categories—those measuring general knowledge, say, or vocabulary or the ability to do basic arithmetic—have risen only modestly over time. The big gains on the WISC are largely in the category known as "similarities," where you get questions such as "In what way are 'dogs' and 'rabbits' alike?" Today, we tend to give what, for the purposes of I.Q. tests, is the right answer: dogs and rabbits are both mammals. A nineteenth-century American would have said that "you use dogs to hunt rabbits."
"If the everyday world is your cognitive home, it is not natural to detach abstractions and logic and the hypothetical from their concrete referents," Flynn writes. Our great-grandparents may have been perfectly intelligent. But they would have done poorly on I.Q. tests because they did not participate in the twentieth century's great cognitive revolution, in which we learned to sort experience according to a new set of abstract categories. In Flynn's phrase, we have now had to put on "scientific spectacles," which enable us to make sense of the WISC questions about similarities. To say that Dutch I.Q. scores rose substantially between 1952 and 1982 was another way of saying that the Netherlands in 1982 was, in at least certain respects, much more cognitively demanding than the Netherlands in 1952. An I.Q., in other words, measures not so much how smart we are as how modern we are.
This is a critical distinction. When the children of Southern Italian immigrants were given I.Q. tests in the early part of the past century, for example, they recorded median scores in the high seventies and low eighties, a full standard deviation below their American and Western European counterparts. Southern Italians did as poorly on I.Q. tests as Hispanics and blacks did. As you can imagine, there was much concerned talk at the time about the genetic inferiority of Italian stock, of the inadvisability of letting so many second-class immigrants into the United States, and of the squalor that seemed endemic to Italian urban neighborhoods. Sound familiar? These days, when talk turns to the supposed genetic differences in the intelligence of certain races, Southern Italians have disappeared from the discussion. "Did their genes begin to mutate somewhere in the 1930s?" the psychologists Seymour Sarason and John Doris ask, in their account of the Italian experience. "Or is it possible that somewhere in the 1920s, if not earlier, the sociocultural history of Italo-Americans took a turn from the blacks and the Spanish Americans which permitted their assimilation into the general undifferentiated mass of Americans?"
. . . . [I]f I.Q. varies with habits of mind, which can be adopted or discarded in a generation, what, exactly, is all the fuss about?
* * *
Flynn is a cautious and careful writer. Unlike many others in the I.Q. debates, he resists grand philosophizing. He comes back again and again to the fact that I.Q. scores are generated by paper-and-pencil tests—and making sense of those scores, he tells us, is a messy and complicated business that requires something closer to the skills of an accountant than to those of a philosopher.
For instance, Flynn shows what happens when we recognize that I.Q. is not a freestanding number but a value attached to a specific time and a specific test.
* * *
Two weeks ago, Flynn came to Manhattan to debate Charles Murray at a forum sponsored by the Manhattan Institute . Their subject was the black-white I.Q. gap in America. During the twenty-five years after the Second World War, that gap closed considerably. The I.Q.s of white Americans rose, as part of the general worldwide Flynn effect, but the I.Q.s of black Americans rose faster. Then, for about a period of twenty-five years, that trend stalled—and the question was why.
Murray . . . appeared to be pessimistic that the racial difference would narrow in the future. "By the nineteen-seventies, you had gotten most of the juice out of the environment that you were going to get," he said. That gap, he seemed to think, reflected some inherent difference between the races. "Starting in the nineteen-seventies, to put it very crudely, you had a higher proportion of black kids being born to really dumb mothers," he said. When the debate's moderator, Jane Waldfogel, informed him that the most recent data showed that the race gap had begun to close again, Murray seemed unimpressed, as if the possibility that blacks could ever make further progress was inconceivable.
Flynn took a different approach. The black-white gap, he pointed out, differs dramatically by age. He noted that the tests we have for measuring the cognitive functioning of infants, though admittedly crude, show the races to be almost the same. By age four, the average black I.Q. is 95.4—only four and a half points behind the average white I.Q. Then the real gap emerges: from age four through twenty-four, blacks lose six-tenths of a point a year, until their scores settle at 83.4.
That steady decline, Flynn said, did not resemble the usual pattern of genetic influence. Instead, it was exactly what you would expect, given the disparate cognitive environments that whites and blacks encounter as they grow older. Black children are more likely to be raised in single-parent homes than are white children—and single-parent homes are less cognitively complex than two-parent homes. The average I.Q. of first-grade students in schools that blacks attend is 95, which means that "kids who want to be above average don't have to aim as high." There were possibly adverse differences between black teen-age culture and white teen-age culture, and an enormous number of young black men are in jail—which is hardly the kind of environment in which someone would learn to put on scientific spectacles.
. . . . "The mind is much more like a muscle than we've ever realized," Flynn said. "It needs to get cognitive exercise. It's not some piece of clay on which you put an indelible mark." The lesson to be drawn from black and white differences was the same as the lesson from the Netherlands years ago: I.Q. measures not just the quality of a person's mind but the quality of the world that person lives in.

Printf and friends
The simplest approach is to use Debug.Trace.trace:
trace :: String -> a -> a
- "When called, trace outputs the string in its first argument, before returning the second argument as its result.'"
A common idiom to trace a function is:
myfun a b | trace ("myfun " ++ show a ++ " " ++ show b) False = undefined myfun a b = ...
The advantage is that disabling and enabling the trace takes only one line comment.
You must keep in mind that due to lazy evaluation your traces will only print if the value they wrap is ever demanded.
The trace function is located in the base package. The package htrace defines a trace function similar to the one in the base package, but with indentation for better visual effect (see the mailing list thread for examples). Other tools can be found at the debug category in Hackage.
A more powerful alternative for this approach is Hood. Even if it hasn't been updated in some time, Hood works perfectly with the current ghc distribution. Even more, Hugs has it already integrated, see the manual page. Add an import Observe and start inserting observations in your code. For instance:
import Hugs.Observe f' = observe "Informative name for f" f f x = if odd x then x*2 else 0
And then in hugs:
Main> map f' [1..5] [2,0,6,0,10] >>>>>>> Observations <<<<<< Informative name for f { \ 5 -> 10 , \ 4 -> 0 , \ 3 -> 6 , \ 2 -> 0 , \ 1 -> 2 }
outputs a report of all the invocations of f and their result.
I have a handy bogus Hugs.Observe module with no-ops for the observations so that I don't need to remove them manually, expecting that the compiler will optimize them away.
The GHood package adds a graphical back-end to Hood. See also the GHood homepage.
The Safe Library
There is a safe library of functions from the Prelude that can crash, see the safe library. If you get an error message such as "pattern match failure, head []", you can then use headNote "extra information" to get a more detailed error message for that particular call to head. The safe library also has functions that return default values and wrap their computation in Maybe as required.
Offline analysis of traces
The most advanced debugging tools are based in offline analysis of traces. Hat is probably the most up-to-date tool for this, offering a comprehensive set of tools. Neil Mitchell has made available a Windows port of Hat at his site.
The disadvantage of these tools is that they are not always compatible with the latest libraries, so you can put them to use only in some cases.
Some Hat user should complete this section
Dynamic breakpoints in GHCi
Finally, the GHCi debugger project aims to bring dynamic breakpoints and intermediate values observation to GHCi in a near future. Right now the tool is only available from the site as a modified version of GHC, so unfortunately you will have to compile it yourself if you want to have it.
This tool allows to set breakpoints in your code, directly from the GHCi command prompt. An example session:
*main:Main> :break add Main 2 Breakpoint set at (2,15) *main:Main> qsort [10,9..1] Local bindings in scope: x :: a, xs :: [a], left :: [a], right :: [a] qsort2.hs:2:15-46> :sprint x x = _ qsort2.hs:2:15-46> x This is an untyped, unevaluated computation. You can use seq to force its evaluation and then :print to recover its type qsort2.hs:2:15-46> seq x () () qsort2.hs:2:15-46> :p x x - 10
Once a breakpoint is hit, you can explore the bindings in scope, as well as to evaluate any haskell expression, as you would do in a normal GHCi prompt. The ':print' command can be very useful to explore the lazyness of your code.
Source-located errors
LocH provides wrappers over
assert for generating source-located exceptions and errors.
Consider the use of a located
import Debug.Trace.Location
import qualified Data.Map as M
import Data.Maybe
main = do print f
f = let m = M.fromList
s = M.lookup 4 m
in fromJustSafe assert s
fromJustSafe a s = check a (fromJust s)
This will result in:
$ ./a.out
a.out: A.hs:12:20-25: Maybe.fromJust: Nothing
This can be automated, using the 'loch' preprocessor, so a program failing with:
$ ghc A.hs --make -no-recomp
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( A.hs, A.o )
Linking A ...
A: Maybe.fromJust: Nothing
Can be transformed to a src-located one by adding:
import Debug.Trace.Location
and then recompiling with the preprocessor on:
$ ghc A.hs --make -pgmF loch -F -no-recomp
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( A.hs, A.o )
Linking A ...
A: A.hs:14:14-19: Maybe.fromJust: Nothing
Other tricks
- If you use GHC, you can get a stack trace in the console when your program fails with an error condition. See the description of relevant runtime options.
- Some tips how to use GHCi debugger are also in this message.
Locating a failure in a library function
The simplest way to provide locating in the source code a mismatch run-time error in the library functions:
head, tail, fromJust
and others is to avoid these functions and to use explicit matching instead.
For example, consider:
g x = h $ fromJust $ f x,
ghc-6.6 often loses the reference to
h in its run-time error report, when
But for the program:
g x = let Just y = f x in h y,
GHC reports:
Main: M1.hs:9:11-22:
Irrefutable pattern failed for pattern Data.Maybe.Just y
Indicating the source of the failure.
Mysterious parse errors
GHC provides `-ferror-spans`, which will give you the exactly position of the start and end of an offending statement.
Infinite loops
On glasgow-haskell-users on 21 Nov 2007, pepe made the following suggestion for detecting the cause infinite loops in GHCi. Assuming the offending function is named `loop`, and takes one argument:
- enable the flag -fbreak-on-error (`:set -fbreak-on-error` in GHCi)
- run your expression with :trace (`:trace loop 'a'`)
- hit Ctrl-C while your program is stuck in the loop to have the debugger break in the loop
- use :history and :back to find out where the loop is located and why.
(For which versions? ghci >= 6.8?)

(ARA) - As the drum beat of news continues about the credit crunch in the mortgage market, millions of homeowners are worried about their adjustable-rate mortgages that will adjust to higher interest rates, leaving many struggling to make their payment. As a result, there's a lot of confusion about what to do, or not do, before an ARM resets.
According to industry statistics, $75 billion in ARMs are slated to adjust higher through the rest of 2007. Another $500 billion will adjust higher in 2008.
What should a consumer do if their ARM is about to reset? There is no "one size fits all" answer, so it's imperative that homeowners educate themselves and take action before that happens.
To help consumers find answers, Quicken Loans, one of the nation's largest mortgage lenders, has launched its new Home Loan U (http://www.quickenloans.com/homeloanu.html) Web site. The site offers a wealth of free informational guides providing easy-to-understand information and advice on a wide range of housing topics, including refinancing.
"With so many ARMs adjusting higher in the near future, a lot of folks are confused and worried about what to do. Their first impulse may be to immediately refinance but, in some cases, that might not be the best option," says Bob Walters, chief economist for Quicken Loans. "There are several factors to consider when an ARM resets, such as the new interest rate and how long they plan to stay in their home."
Walters notes that the first thing someone with an ARM should do is consult an experienced mortgage lender who can review their current loan program, discuss financial goals and explore available options to determine the best course of action to meet their immediate and long-term needs.
For more information on refinancing an arm and additional mortgage guides, visit Home Loan U online.

FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — The girlfriend of former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez has been indicted on a perjury charge in connection with the killing of his friend, a Massachusetts prosecutor said Friday, bringing to five the number of people facing charges in the case.
A grand jury indicted Shayanna Jenkins, 24, on a single count in relation to the investigation into the June 17 killing of Odin Lloyd, Bristol County District Attorney Samuel Sutter said.
It wasn't clear what led to the charge. Sutter's spokesman, Gregg Miliote, said he could not comment until her arraignment, which has not been set. A message left for Jenkins' lawyer was not immediately returned.
Lloyd, a 27-year-old semiprofessional football player from Boston, was found shot to death in an industrial park in North Attleborough, Mass., near Hernandez's home, where Jenkins also lives. Lloyd had been dating Jenkins' sister.
Jenkins was not arrested and will be ordered to appear in court for an arraignment, the prosecutor's office said. She and Hernandez have a young child together.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and weapons charges in Lloyd's death and is being held without bail. His attorneys have said the state won't be able to prove its case during a jury trial and that Hernandez will be exonerated.
Prosecutors say Hernandez killed Lloyd because he was upset with him for talking to some people at a nightclub with whom he had had problems.
Prosecutors said as recently as Thursday that the investigation was ongoing, the grand jury was continuing to hear evidence and that more charges could be coming.
In addition to Hernandez and his girlfriend, three others face charges in the case. Hernandez associate Ernest Wallace has pleaded not guilty to being an accessory to murder after the fact.
Another associate of Hernandez, Carlos Ortiz, also was indicted on the same charge, Sutter said Friday.
Ortiz's attorney, John Connors, said Friday that the indictment wasn't unexpected. He said Ortiz will plead not guilty to the new charge and that he will make an argument for bail but had no further comment. A hearing on the gun charge that was scheduled for Friday was canceled.
Given the indictment, Ortiz's case now shifts to superior court in Fall River. His arraignment there has not been scheduled.
Hernandez's cousin, Tanya Singleton, also was indicted on a new charge of conspiracy to commit accessory after the fact, Sutter said. Prosecutors say that in the days after the killing, she drove with Wallace from her home in Bristol, Conn., where Wallace had lived at times, to Georgia, where her car broke down, and that she then bought him a bus ticket to Florida, where his family lives.
Singleton had been indicted earlier on a charge of criminal contempt after allegedly refusing to testify before the grand jury hearing evidence in the case. Prosecutors say they offered her immunity.
A message seeking comment was left for her attorney.

Despite one charmer of a performance and one particularly hilarious party scene, 'That Awkward Moment' is forgettable, a so-so time-filler you'd discover on late-night cable and later have a dickens of a time remembering the title, even the next day.
The Zac Efron, Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller comedy manages to distinguish itself by taking the well-traveled rom-com out for some off-road riding. Instead of focusing on the hookups and hang-ups of women – the usual offerings in this genre – 'Awkward' focuses on the dating predicaments of a trio of New York guys in their 20s. Sounds like the flip side to HBO's 'Girls'? Not a chance. Despite being a little raunchy, this film plays it too safe.
What buoys 'Awkward' are the performances of two of its rising stars, 'Fruitvale Station's' Jordan – who gives the film its heart and steals every scene he's in – and 'The Spectacular Now's' Teller, who earns decent laughs. They're better than the hit-and-miss script, especially the charismatic Jordan. The same can't be said of Efron, who pulls off a few comic moments, but still remains so overearnest in the dramatic parts you can't help but wince.
The ultimate failing, though, is the film's premise, which forces characters to act ridiculously just because of the inane plot device. As the production notes reveal, director and screenwriter Tom Gormican drew inspiration from Shakespeare's 'Love's Labour's Lost.' However, his belabored contrivance just isn't credible: that three best buds would make a pact to not take their relationships from casual dating to the next level after one of them (Jordan) finds himself newly single – his wife is having an affair and wants a divorce.
Naturally, the stereotypical dudes – studly player Jason (Efron), uncouth funny guy Daniel (Teller) and sensitive sweetheart Mikey (Jordan) – struggle to keep the bet.
Jason, the least interesting of the three and the central character, meets his 'match' in Ellie (a sexy Imogen Poots) at a bar. Meanwhile, Daniel connects with an opposites-attract friend Chelsea (Mackenzie Davis), and Mikey, well, let's avoid any spoilers here, since there are few to be had.
Despite the noble intentions to make a rom-com from the man's perspective, 'That Awkward Moment' winds up feeling old-school. The quality and standards of cable TV shows such as 'Girls' have upped the game for movies like this. And even though 'Awkward' has its moments, it winds up lagging behind more daring endeavors on TV right now. The film industry had better keep up.

I am now blocked from commenting on the Facebook page of the Institute of Creation Research (ICR). This was no surprise to me, nonetheless I felt rather sad that they felt they had to cut me off. Below is a screenshot of the ICR meme on which I had made what I thought was a substantive comment. About 20 minutes later my comment was removed and I was no longer able to comment.
I infrequently commented on the ICR Facebook page and I followed all the rules and beyond. I did not promote my own material by posting links. I was polite to those that called me everything imaginable. I devoted my time and attention to pointing out when very clear mistakes had been make or there was a large piece of the picture missing. I only commented on topics for which I felt I had expertise and something significant to contribute. When replies became hostile I simply didn't respond.
In many cases I provided information that corrected serious problems with their message. Several times they removed content after becoming aware – via my Facebook comments – that there were factual errors in their posts. One recent example included problems with the content of a video. I wrote about it on this blog after pointing out the problem on their FB page (When Peer-Review Lets You Down: Another YEC Fact-checking Problem). An hour later ICR had removed the video and edited out the offending portion. Here is another example in which they posted a completely erroneous meme in which they were incorrect about how many time Jesus referenced Genesis (A YEC Quote Problem). That one was removed and has not re-appeared and even ICR followers on FB recognized there was a problem after I pointed it out.
Such errors are not uncommon and without someone pointing them out the quality of their work will become even worse. There are not many of us out there that are willing to take the time to examine the YEC literature and provide constructive feedback. By cutting those people off ICR has doomed themselves to repeating their mistakes over and over again. Their internal peer-review process consists of friends with less expertise than the authors looking over material and looking for grammatical errors not content errors. By cutting off all external reviewers they place themselves in great peril of becoming even more isolated from
A few weeks ago I challenged Ken Ham to send his employees to professional scientific conferences so they could learn first hand what is happening in science and challenge themselves with the best of what is out there. YECs organize their own conferences, review their own materials and generally ignore outside criticism other than to claim it is unwarranted.
Unfortunately by blocking myself and other Christians who work in scientific fields, ICR confirms that they are taking the path of Answers in Genesis in carefully managing what their follows are exposed to. I understand why they are doing this. I am an annoyance that too many people listen too. Reasonable comments that point out other points of view are far more dangerous to their message than the sniping of atheist which they continue to tolerate – some have posted thousands of comments – on their Facebook page. Just like AiG, they promote a dichotomous view of the world in which there are only young earth true believers and atheists, everyone in between is just a confused compromiser.
Here is what I wrote about AiG that I think applies here as well:
"In other words, by attending conferences and really listening to talks and meeting with scientists they will be placed in a situation where they will see and hear things they can't unsee and unhear. And this is why Ken Ham doesn't want them there. By all appearances and from personal experience he doesn't allow his employees to engage in any significant interactions with non-Christian scientist and especially compromising Christian scientists. The latter are the most dangerous and are to be avoided at all costs because their words are from the devil and can't be trusted. This behavior is common in insular organizations such as AiG. The more isolated the members become the more distanced they are from the real world. As a result it becomes more and more difficult from members to critique each other and to understand the outside world which makes their critiques of that world less and less reliable as well.
The reduction of contact and dehumanization of the opposition is a tried and true technique for maintaining fealty to a leader or movement. In recent years AiG has become increasingly isolated from world – just as they preach that they must – but since they are in the business of providing responses to the secular world they have to engage that world to understand it lest they just provide answers to straw-men they have created."
I'm more sad than upset. It's sad that they are fearful of the message of other Christians. It's sad that they have cut themselves off from yet another source of outside peer-review.

With the availability of new "Curly W" Nationals license plates in the state of Virginia, look for clever Nats fans to quickly take advantage of the team's Curly W logo to create previously unavailable vanity messages beginning with the letter W.
The "good" ones, depending on your point of view, should go quickly, but as of this afternoon, a great many wordplay opportunities were still shown as available on the Virginia DMV website.
Long-suffering Nationals fans might go for (W)INNERS, (W)IN NOW, or simply (W)ORLD S.
Fans of particular players might go for (W)ERTH or (W)ILSON, and pessimists might opt for (W)OEFUL, (W)IMPY, or (W)HIFF.
Are you a conflicted NBA fan still waiting for your own vanity plate? (W)IZARDS is up for grabs. And if you'd just like to skirt the Old Dominion's restrictions against inappropriate language, it's not too late to grab (W)HUPASS.
As of this moment, all of these and more are available for the new plate design:

5 Responses to "The Imagined Ideological Divide"

[…] The Imagined Ideological Divide – via thesituationist.wordpress.com – Republicans and Democrats are less divided in their attitudes than popularly believed, according to new research. It is exactly those perceptions of polarization, however, that help drive political engagement, researchers say."American polarization is largely exaggerated," says Leaf Van Boven of the University of Colorado Boulder, especially by people who adopt strong political stances. And when people perceive a large gap between political parties, they may be more motivated to vote. That message emerges from analyses of 40 years' worth of voter data and could help predict voting behavior for the 2012 presidential election, according to social psychologists presenting their work today at a conference in San Diego, CA.

Winter's come and gone, spring with its sometimes uncertain weather is about to leave us. It may not be technically summer yet, but summer temperatures are already here. Not only do we enjoy summer type drinks, but even desserts take on new flavors.
This time of the year is perfect for marshmallows roasted over a camp fire, or any other way; I just tried Elyon Marshmallows and Elyon Mini Marshmallows and found them outstanding!
SYR looks forward to this time, when she prepares one of her favorite summer desserts:
SYR's Toffee S'mores
2 cups – coarsely chopped pecans
1 bag (4.8 oz) – Honey Grahams broken into 1″ pieces
1 package – Elyon Mini Marshmallows
8 oz – Semi Sweet Parve Chocolate Chips
6 oz – Pareve White Baking Chocolate Bar (cut into small pieces)
1 stick – margarine
1 cup – sugar
1/2 cup – brown sugar
1/2 cup – light corn syrup
3 tblsp – water
1 tsp – vanilla
1 generous pinch – salt
2 – 9″ square pans
Over a low flame, combine sugars, corn syrup, vanilla, salt, and margarine in a pan. Stir constantly as mixture blends, continue stirring for an additional 2 minutes as the mixture starts gently bubbling. Turn off flame.
Add pecans and honey graham pieces into mixture stir until these are fully covered by the caramel.
Grease the two 9″ pans and spread mix evenly into each of them. Spread half of Elyon's Mini Marshmallow evenly into one pan and the other half into the second pan. Distribute white chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips into decorative patterns on top, for each 9″ pan. Preheat oven to 350F and bake for 10 minutes or until each pan's contents shows a light beige color. Cool at room temperature and cut into 1″ squares. Refrigerate and serve.
162 – 1″ squares
Enjoy it folks, it's easy to prepare and tastes delicious!

30 Quick and Easy Ideas for Kitchen Organization
Structured snacking
Keep snacks organized and reachable by corralling them in cute baskets.
Maximize space
Look at odd-shaped empty spaces, such as above the fridge or in corners, as opportunities for added storage.
Think outside the kitchen
First things first: Get everything that doesn't belong in the kitchen out of there. If your countertops are constantly cluttered because they are the drop zone, take a look at organizing your entryway.
Good to go
Keep those keys from hitting the counter by making sure you have plenty of hooks by the door, as well as a couple of slots for mail - you could sort by type of mail (incoming, outgoing, bills) or who it's addressed to.
Plenty of pockets
A hanging shoe holder organizes a variety of tools in your kitchen.
Pantry perfection
Make better use of space in your pantry and cupboards by getting rid of bulky packaging. Clear canisters let you see when you're running low on staples; just make sure to keep the cooking instructions with the food.
Bleachers for food
See how those foods in the back peek over the ones up front? A set of shelf risers means you quickly find what you're looking for.
Extra space
Bringing a small armoire from another room into the kitchen makes a huge difference in homes lacking enough cabinets.
Divine dining
Fancy dishes and platters you don't use every day don't need to be stored in the kitchen. Consider installing a shallow shelving unit in the dining room to display them, along with some pretty collectibles.
Make the most of shelves
If you can adjust your shelves, make sure they're not too much taller than their contents. If you find you have room to add another, a hardware store can easily cut a new board to fit.
Just hanging out
Free up counter space by keeping produce in a hanging basket. This also keeps healthy food in plain sight - instead of the bottom drawer of the fridge or a pantry shelf.
Cookbook central
Keep the cookbooks you use often - and more recent editions of magazines - in easy reach. Store seldom-used ones (think holiday cookbooks) outside the kitchen.
Beneficial backsplash
The wall space behind the stove is valuable acreage. Installing a shelf there keeps items you use most (olive oil, wooden spoons, salt and pepper) close at hand.
Within arm's reach
Pots and pans find a convenient home above the stove - no more digging around in cabinets to find them. Just make sure the hooks are sturdy enough to hold the weight.
Curtains to cabinets
A couple of inexpensive tension curtain rods inside a base cabinet add upright storage for cookie sheets and cutting boards, keeping everything in sight and easy to grab.
Better bottle storage
Serious wine lover? Easily keep track of your collection by adding a strip of chalkboard paint to the bottom of your wine cabinet. You could sort your bottles by type or by region.
Classified crates
Keep the freezer in order by storing everything in bags (no big boxes) and sorting items by type in labeled crates. Lay liquid items flat until they freeze into stackable, sortable packages - like the soups pictured.
Tidy trash
Replacing one big, smelly trash bin with multiple smaller ones makes things easier come recycling day: Presort your junk into trash, recyclables and redeemables.
In the bag
If you reuse plastic grocery bags as trash can liners, a compact bag dispenser like the one at top right keeps them corralled. Recycle the ones that don't fit.
Quick clean up
Hanging a rack (like the ones made for in showers) on the inside of the cupboard under the sink keeps dish soap and sponges handy.
Dish rack double duty
Dish racks aren't just for drying. Add one to a drawer to keep lids organized.
Speedy spices
Find the spice you're looking for in a flash by storing them with the labels all facing the same direction. If you don't have space to lay them flat, label the top of each jar with a marker before standing them up.
Message central
Add chalkboard paint to the faces of a few cabinets to create a centralized place for messages and notes, like that ever-evolving grocery list.
Hang it up
There's no need for a sharps drawer if you add a few magnetic strips to your kitchen walls. Place them near the cutting area for easy access or near the dishwasher so they're quick to put away.
Collected cookie cutters
A paper towel holder doubles as an organizer for cookie cutters.
All-purpose pegboard
The same material that keeps garages and workshops in order works in kitchens, too. Hang a sheet of pegboard, add a few hooks, and you've got plenty of versatile hanging storage.
Keep a junk drawer
Yes - it's OK! Every household has odds and ends no one knows quite where to put. Designating one drawer for "junk" can keep it from ending up elsewhere. A divider maintains some organization.
Stylish crates
Add drawer pulls to inexpensive wooden crates to make them easier to pull out from shelves.
Basket solutions
Baskets add not only style but convenient storage in just about every room of your house. In the kitchen, try a shallow basket for storing cooking oils and spices. Put a cookie sheet or aluminum foil on the bottom for easy cleanup. See more ideas for basket storage
Island organization
Add a hanging shelf to your kitchen island for easy-to-reach storage of spices, utensils and measuring spoons.

Yesterday we spoke of the food at KFWE, today we will give our views on the superb potables… As we entered the exhibit hall we found Walders Vanilla & Vodka, nestled among the food tables.
…we'd heard quite a bit about it and we just had to try it, what a delicious dessert drink! The wine selection was huge, obviously we'd never taste all of it, thus we had to be selective knowing full well we'd likely miss some real jewels. In any case here are our impressions of some we tasted:
Alexander Winery Alexander the Great Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 – Alexander's top of the line composed of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5%Merlot grapes, it has a beautiful dark color with a hint of black. On the nose it shows berries, cherries and tobacco. A full bodied wine, rich and well balanced, a new favorite of mine!
SYR found the Baron Herzog Pinot Grigio 2009 delightful. – With a superb balance of acidity, a not so subtle perfume on the nose followed by tropical fruits, it goes perfectly with light pasta dishes. It proves, unequivocally, that a good wine need not be expensive.
Stopping by Binyamina's table, we tasted The Cave 2006 and 2007… This wine never ceases to amaze me, it's consistently good. Aged in a 300 year old cave for 24 months it consists of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot. A world class wine that just happens to be kosher, the 2007 vintage was a bit more balanced in its taste and a bit more aromatic. Asaf Paz, one the two winemakers at Binyamina, was there presenting his wines and passionately discussing his craft. When I saw Binyamina's fruit liqueurs I just had to have some of their delicious Sour Apple, truly fruit in a bottle!
At Selection Bokobsa's table we tasted their Chateau Guiraud Sauternes 2001… Woooow!!!! With aromas of lilies, mango, peach, honey and apricot, it is an intense, complex dry wine.
We tasted the CAPÇANES Peraj Ha Abib 2008, from Spain. Aged for a year in French oak barrels, from grapes grown on high mountain mineral stony terroir, grapes whose vines yield low amounts of fruit, this is an amazing full bodied wine.
There were more great wines we tasted, but the ones above impressed us the most. Let me also mention some of the liquors I liked. As a kid, growing up in Uruguay, I always wondered why the adults kept on referring to "agua ardiente," burning water… I finally got to taste Aguardiente Antioqueño, from Colombia. Now I understood the oxymoron. The name suddenly made sense and, yes, it was very good!!
Another liquor I'll mention is San Francisco's Distillery Number 209's Gin. Very fruity aroma, superbly tasting! Before leaving I had some Glengoyne 17 Year Old Scotch Whiskey, extremely smooth with a very concentrated palette of incredible flavors!
As SYR put it, "It was a great evening of food, wines, meeting old friends and finding new ones. A truly amazing evening and I can't wait until next year's KFWE!"

Apostle Andrew
The holy, glorious and all-laudable Apostle Andrew the First-Called was the first of the apostles of Jesus Christ and the brother of the Apostle Peter. His great missionary legacy led him to become the patron saint of several countries, including Romania and Scotland. His feast day is November 30.
Andrew was a fisherman by trade, born in Bethsaida. A disciple of John the Forerunner, he left St. John to follow Jesus Christ following his baptism and brought along his brother, the Apostle Peter. Both are numbered among the Twelve Great Apostles. After Pentecost, the lot fell to St. Andrew to preach in:
- Byzantium: he appointed St. Stachys as its first bishop
- Thrace, Peloponnese, Greece, and Epirus: he converted many to the Faith and ordained bishops and priests for them
- Georgia: he entered Georgia from Ajara, preached Christianity in Atsquri, built small church there and left miracle-working icon of Theotokos.
- Rus' lands: in Kiev he planted a cross on one of the high hills of Kiev, and he prophesied a city that would have many golden-domed churches, and a bright Christian future for the Rus' people.
St. Andrew was martyred in Peloponnese, in the city of Patras. The Proconsul Aegeates' family believed in the miracles and preaching of St. Andrew, and the enraged Proconsul tortured and crucified St. Andrew. The new converts wanted to remove him from his cross, but the saint would not allow them. Instead, he comforted them from the cross and as he prayed an extraordinary light encompassed him for about a half hour. When it left, he gave up his soul. It was the year 62 AD.
St. Andrew's relics were taken to Constantinople, his head to Rome and a hand to Moscow.
Troparion (Tone 4)
- Andrew, first-called of the Apostles
- and brother of the foremost disciple,
- entreat the Master of all
- to grant peace to the world
- and to our souls great mercy.
Kontakion (Tone 2)
- Let us praise Andrew, the herald of God,
- the namesake of courage,
- the first-called of the Savior's disciples
- and the brother of Peter.
- As he once called to his brother, he now cries out to us:
- "Come, for we have found the One whom the world desires!"
- St. Nikolai Velimirovic, The Prologue of Ohrid

Catholic Schools Week shines light on faith-based education
Though faith and religion are typically excluded in public schools, they are two of the main reasons parents in Ionia County send their children to a Catholic school.
This week is Catholic Schools Week, which allows the schools to celebrate who they are in terms of faith, academics and service. Almost 6,000 students make up the Diocese of Grand Rapids, including 27 elementary schools and four high schools.
For students who attend St. Patrick Catholic School in Portland, St. Joseph Catholic School in Pewamo and Ss. Peter & Paul Catholic School in Ionia, religion is a large part of each day.
"(Parents) want a faith-based education. They believe in the importance of their faith and the impact it should have on their children," said St. Pat's principal Randy Hodge.
Hodge, St. Joseph principal Patricia O'Mara and SSPP principal Julie Baty said religion is prevalent throughout the entire day, with students involved in prayers, religion as a separate subject and faith being incorporated into traditional subjects including social studies, English and science. Depending on grade, students also prepare for receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation, their first Holy Communion and the Sacrament of Confirmation.
To help her teaching staff, O'Mara said she uses Internet resources including www.whatiflearning.com and www.BibleGateway.com.
"Our school theme this year is 'We Walk by Faith,' but it goes beyond that because in its entirety the phrase is 'We walk by faith and not by sight,'" said O'Mara.
Baty said staff members of SSPP are able to bring Catholicism to the forefront each day.
"We intersperse faith throughout the day in everything we do," said Baty. "We also do lots of service activities with the students."
Apart from curriculum, students attend Mass at least once each week in addition to holidays or religiously significant days.
Hodge said students participate in wreath lightings during Advent and stations of the cross during Lent. High school students also attend a retreat in the fall season.
SSPP service projects include donating items to the Zion Community Food Pantry on a regular basis, Baty added.
Students who attend Catholic schools do not have to be of the denomination, but still follow the same curriculum and are required to attend Mass during the week. Baty said while SSPP students who are not Catholic cannot participate in receiving the Holy Eucharist, they can receive a blessing from the priest.
"We certainly strive to have everyone involved," Baty added.
Hodge said parents of non-Catholic St. Pat's students are encouraged to discuss differences between the denominations, which can help the students more deeply understand Catholicism and their own denomination's teachings.
Above all else, Baty, Hodge and O'Mara said they believe they have the opportunity to help enrich the lives of their students with infusing religion into all aspects of education.
"Our goal is to set up our graduates with a foundation of the skills they will need to be successful in life. Having a moral basis for decision making, a strong work ethic and great academic skills and knowledge really are a foundation for life-long success," Hodge said.
O'Mara said the Pewamo community, parish and school function as one body.
"There is a cohesiveness within this small parish community that provides its members with faith ... faith that sees us through our ups and downs ... faith that keeps us together. Here we are among family and friends that care deeply about providing our children with the opportunity to do their best academically and in service to God," she said.

Let the Water Bottle Lawsuits Roll Down…
Now that Concord Town Meeting has upheld the deeply unpopular ban on water bottles, the matter is almost certainly heading to court.
One of the interesting questions we've had in the past few months on this blog has been the role of the majority in public life–the filibuster in the Senate, the question of whether a majority of voters can deny a minority the right to marry, and now the question of whether Town Meeting in Massachusetts can ban a legal product from sale within its borders. Funny how so many people who want to keep out adult bookstores and gun shops are now calling for freedom to shop.
But the short answer is that Town Meeting almost certainly cannot ban the sale of a lawful product within its borders. This issue comes up against a long history of jurisprudence involving interstate commerce. In the absence of any evidence that the water bottle ban has any beneficial and substantive value (and it doesn't, because Concord isn't an island), the rights of the seller and the rights of the producer, certainly become paramount. Considering the investment that so many companies have made in single serving water bottles, there are a lot of parties with standing to challenge the ban in court, and they will probably prevail. There may be a short waiting period to show that the ban is meaningless, but the lawsuits will come.
What struck me last night is how many people who voted to keep the ban in place didn't realize that they were also voting to fund the defense of a massive and probably well funded lawsuit. Is it worth $250,000 in taxpayer funds to defend the ban? As a taxpayer, I wouldn't think so. Did the voters last night understand that their stand on principle is going to be an expensive one? Because the truth of the matter is that a majority is a good thing, but more often than not, today, the final arbiter is with the court protecting the rights of the one, whether you like that or not. Cause that's what the constitution requires.

Tonight, Grammy-nominated vocalist Denise Donatelli performs for Jazz at LACMA, our free weekly outdoor concert series. You can hear songs from her latest album, When Lights are Low, at her website. Enjoy a drink at Stark Bar, a dinner at Ray's, or just soak up the atmosphere of the museum campus while Donatelli performs. Don't forget—admission to the galleries is also free (for L.A. County residents) after 5 pm.
As mentioned earlier this week, an original Magna Carta from the Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford, is on view for a very limited time in the Art of the Americas Building. It went on view on Tuesday and is coming down this Thursday, so this is your only weekend to come see this historic document. Be sure to check out our other exhibitions on view while you're here.
Tomorrow night, as part of BritWeek, we are premiering the documentary Beyond Time: William Turnbull, which looks at the life and work of this influential sculptor and painter. Filmmakers Alex Turnbull (William's son) and Pete Stern will be here in person for a Q&A following the screening. Here's a look:
Starting this weekend our free Andell Family Sundays will take on a new theme, "Build It!" Show your kids some of the furniture on view in our galleries—whether from Korea, Europe, the U.S., or elsewhere—and then take part in art-making activities together to build your own mini-furniture.
On Sunday evening the Young Musicians Foundation Chamber Ensembles will perform works by Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorák, and others during our ongoing Sundays Live free concert series.

Exchange 2013 and Office 365 (O365) include a new feature that can peek into e-mail messages and enclosed documents and then flag them, forward them, or block them entirely based on what it finds. This sort of data loss prevention technology has become increasingly common in corporate mail systems, but its inclusion as a feature in Office 365's cloud service makes it a lot more accessible to organizations that haven't had the budget or expertise to monitor the e-mail lives of their employees.
As we showed in our review of the new Office server platforms, the data loss prevention feature of Microsoft's new messaging platforms can detect things like credit card numbers, social security numbers, and other content that has no business travelling by e-mail. Because of how simple it is to configure rules for Microsoft's DLP and security features, administrators will also have the power to do other sorts of snooping into what's coming and going from users' mailboxes.
Unfortunately, depending on the mix of mail servers in your organization—or which Exchange instances you happen to hit in the O365 Azure cloud—they may not work all the time. And they won't help defeat someone determined to steal data via e-mail.
In tests we performed with DLP and security features, we found that Exchange and O365 were pretty good at catching credit card numbers and other personal identifiable information. However, some of the rules we set for testing didn't take for all of our users. That in part may have been because of the limited rollout of the new Exchange within Microsoft's O365 infrastructure when we were performing the testing. When setting rules, we got a warning from the Exchange Administrative Console:
So in other words, if you're rolling out Exchange 2013 in your organization or are using Office 365 from multiple locations, your mileage with DLP may vary. And even when the rules do work, there are some limits to what you can stop from going out the SMTP gateway.
Exchange 2013 and Office 365 allow rules to be applied to direct mail flow. Those rules can be used for all sorts of things, like rerouting inbound e-mail from one mailbox to another based on the sender, keywords in the subject or contents, and a number of other parameters. For data loss prevention, those rules can be triggered by filters checking for keywords or specific patterns. Those patterns can require some calculations to be made with the text. For example, you won't set off the credit card detection filter provided by Microsoft out of the box unless the numbers properly validate as "real" credit card numbers based on the rules for each issuer.
Exchange and O365's filters can read both message bodies and common file attachments by scanning their content. The filters can also check compressed files for content. We ZIP-compressed documents with content banned by rules put in place to stop them from getting out, including credit card numbers, and the filters caught them with no trouble.
However, if you were intentionally trying to send data out of your organization, you'd probably not send information out as an unprotected document or .ZIP file. You might screenshot the data instead, for example. No DLP filters provided with Exchange and O365 can stop a picture of credit card data from getting out of the sent mailbox. The filters are also defeated by the most basic encryption—substituting letters for numbers, or using leading and trailing numbers to disguise the credit card numbers, for example. Even using something as ancient as ROT-13 works, for example.
So that makes the new DLP features basically useless for blocking anything other than accidental, casual, or poorly executed attempts to expose sensitive data. For any greater level of actual data loss prevention, organizations would still need other measures at the firewall, such as deep packet inspection.
But there is one particular type of monitoring that the DLP rules in Outlook can do well: enforcing other e-mail usage policies by scanning for keyword. Exchange can easily spot the word "resume" in a Word document and forward the message to the employee's manager, or bounce it back, silently delete it, or send it to the spam quarantine for further analysis.
Microsoft's bundling of this sort of technology with Exchange and O365 enterprise editions will probably lead to Google offering similar features to its Apps for Business customers. After all, given that pattern recognition is something in Google's wheelhouse, it isn't too much of a stretch to believe it could offer DLP as part of its Vault e-discovery and archiving service. Google is already pretty good at finding content in Gmail for advertising purposes, as Microsoft has been happy to harp on about in its own marketing efforts for Outlook.com and Office 365.
If you're working for a heavily regulated company or just working for one that's concerned about how you're using their computing resources, you should just expect this sort of monitoring. But with DLP now (relatively) affordable for companies of all sizes through O365, the population of people who could conceivably be monitoring co-workers' e-mails has risen dramatically—no deep packet inspection required. Think about that the next time you use your work e-mail for personal business.

I am broadly interested in the evolution and biogeography of birds, but most of my research focuses on populations found on islands. Islands have long been considered "natural laboratories of evolution", and studying birds on islands teaches us much about speciation, extinction, and adaptation. I have a special interest in one group of birds, the rails (Rallidae), which are great island colonists, found even on the most remote oceanic islands. Many rail species have evolved to become totally flightless on islands that lack mammalian predators. Closer to home, I am studying several species of birds that breed in "islands" of coniferous (boreal) forest isolated above 3000 feet of elevation in New York's mountain ranges. I want to know if these populations of Bicknell's Thrush, Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, Spruce Grouse and other boreal forest specialists are genetically isolated and evolving independently of one another. These high-elevation populations may be imperiled as the climate continues to warm.
