Is Jim DeMint the Most Hated Man in Washington?
Heritage's combative leader has made a sport out of bashing fellow Republicans. The disdain is very much mutual.
Machiavelli's famous advice to politicians is that it is better to be feared than loved. Less often quoted is an equally valuable admonition: avoid being hated.
Jim DeMint, the former senator-turned-Tea Party leader at the helm of the Heritage Foundation, never tried to win the love of the Republican establishment. He did, however, succeed over the past several years, first as the junior senator from South Carolina and since last year, as head of the GOP's most prominent think tank, at being feared by his fellow Republicans. But now he finds himself in the position of being merely despised.
Story Continued Below
Just a few months ago, headlines declared DeMint the "shadow speaker" who "pulls the strings" in Washington, and he was credited with almost singlehandedly grinding Washington to a halt. (Including by DeMint, who boasted that he had "more influence now on public policy than I did as an individual senator.") The real House speaker, Ohio's John Boehner, couldn't stop the government shutdown that DeMint and Tea Party groups orchestrated and cheered when they convinced a majority of House Republicans to go along with their defund-Obamacare-or-else strategy last October.
That was then. But ask around Washington now, and you'll hear that while DeMint is undoubtedly still a Republican power broker (and a high-profile one at that, whose new book, a gauzy tribute to the USA called Falling in Love with America Again, comes out Tuesday just in time for some election-year proselytizing), he no longer strikes fear in establishment Republican hearts. As GOP consultant John Feehery, a veteran Capitol Hill aide who worked for the Republican House leadership, put it, "I don't go to bed thinking about Jim DeMint."
"There was a time when Jim DeMint was one of the most feared people on the Republican side," former Rep. Steve LaTourette, a friend and political ally of the speaker's, told me. "I don't think he's a factor anymore."
Then again, his newfound irrelevance is a byproduct of his success.
It used to be that starry-eyed new lawmakers arrived in Washington ready to suck up to party leaders, pay their dues, then move up the ranks. Not Jim DeMint. After getting his MBA from Clemson University, DeMint started his own research and marketing firm in Greenville, South Carolina. He got interested in politics after helping a fellow South Carolinian win a congressional seat in 1992. By the time he was elected to the House in 1998, before ascending to the Senate in 2005, DeMint's politics had grown increasingly conservative.
Many of his GOP colleagues saw his anti-government proposals as politically infeasible and his tactics too confrontational. DeMint wrote legislation to shut down the Commerce Department's Economic Development Agency. He drafted a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on his fellow members of Congress. He also pushed to term-limit Republican leaders and appropriators' positions in the Senate, setting up a confrontation he lost badly. And even when he did succeed—in his crusade to ban earmarks, for instance—he butted heads with the Republican leaders who depended on them to dole out favors in the Capitol's old you-scratch-my-back-I'll-scratch-yours way of doing business.
When DeMint realized just how opposed his fellow Republicans were to his agenda, he turned his energies to changing the Senate itself. In 2008 he started a political action committee, the Senate Conservatives Fund, now run by his former chief of staff, Matt Hoskins, to support ultra-conservative candidates in Republican primaries. SCF angered DeMint's colleagues by supporting upstart Tea Party candidates over Republican incumbents. (The group, no longer run directly by DeMint, has gone even more confrontational this year by supporting a Republican primary challenger to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky.)
On Nov. 2, 2010, many of DeMint's picks rode the Tea Party wave into Congress—Florida's Marco Rubio, Pennsylvania's Pat Toomey and Kentucky's Rand Paul quickly became high-profile players in the GOP.
But some of DeMint's chosen did not make it. Christine O'Donnell of Delaware bumped a moderate Republican out of the primary, then went down in history as the woman who stared into a camera and said, "I'm not a witch." DeMint's picks in Nevada and Colorado proved similarly unelectable.
In the end, DeMint made the caucus more conservative, but he also helped keep it in the minority. "I'd rather have 30 Marco Rubios than 60 Arlen Specters," he declared.
That was four years ago, but every single Republican interviewed for this article mentioned the line. DeMint made the mistake of saying out loud he'd rather choose ideological purity over winning in a town that worships winners. And no, his fellow Republicans have not gotten over it.
"That's a great soundbite, except it means you will lose every issue every day of the week. You have absolutely no power with only 30 senators," said Republican consultant Brian Walsh, who spent the 2010 and 2012 cycles working to elect a Republican Senate majority at the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

Texas will make a short postseason trip this year to face No. 15 Oregon State in the Alamo Bowl.
The Longhorns (8-4) will need only to zip down Interstate 35 to San Antonio for the Dec. 29 game. It will be Texas' first appearance in the bowl since 2006.
Oregon State coach Mike Riley says it will also be a bit of a homecoming for Beavers running back Storm Woods, who is from nearby Pflugerville.
The Beavers (9-3) will be playing in a bowl game for the first time in three years.

One of the many exquisite illustrative plates to be found in "The Temple of Flora", the third and final part of Robert John Thornton's New illustration of the sexual system of Carolus von Linnaeus, a work considered by many to be the finest of all books about flowers. In addition to the stunning depictions of flora, notable for their novel and dramatic backdrops, for each featured flower Thornton compiled a variety of descriptions (often highly sexualised) and poetic odes (including from Erasmus Darwin's The Botanic Garden). Thornton employed a variety of artists to carry out his vision for the illustrative plates, including the engravers Thomas Medland and Joseph Constantine Stadler, who used a variety of engraving techniques to produce the images including aquatint, stipple, and line. Originally planned to contain as many as seventy folio-size plates, Thornton had to stop at thirty-three after a lack of interest from the public spelled disaster for the project.

Two Retrievers broke into the all-time top ten in the 60m hurdles as Fogle and freshman Madeline Entwistle (Potomac, Md.) placed third and fifth, respectively. Fogle jumped to eighth all-time by finishing in 9.30 and Entwistle was just behind, crossing at 9:34 to tie for the ninth-fastest time at UMBC.
In the 60m dash, sophomore D'Nique Phillip (Elkton, Md./North East), as well as freshmen Nailah Johnson (Capitol Heights, Md.) and Mercedes Tillman (Waldorf, Md./North Point) all advanced to the finals with times breaking the eight-second mark. Tillman posted a time of 7.96 in the prelims to crack the program's top-ten list while Johnson went 7.97.
Sophomore Caitlyn Davis (River Hill, Md.) recorded a career-best in the pole vault, clearing 3.00m (9'10.00") to move into a tie for fourth all-time.

Debates over birth control and reproductive rights have played a prominent role in the 2012 campaign season, and frankly, my vagina and uterus are exhausted.
According to the Guttmacher Institute, 944 provisions related to women's health and reproductive rights were introduced in 45 states in the first three months of 2012, more than half of them designed to restrict women's access to abortion.
Earlier this year conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh attacked Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke, calling her a "prostitute" and a "slut" after she testified before Congress about insurance coverage for contraception. "So Miss Fluke and the rest of you feminazis, here's the deal," Limbaugh said contemptuously. "If we are going to pay for your contraceptives, and thus pay for you to have sex, we want something for it. We want you to post the videos online so we can all watch."
In August, Republican Congressman Todd Akin raised eyebrows when he defended his staunch anti-abortion platform by claiming that women who are "legitimately raped" rarely get pregnant, because women's bodies have a way of "shutting that down." And just last week Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney renewed his pledge to "immediately" defund Planned Parenthood—an organization that provides sex education and vital health services to millions of women, men and young people—should he be elected.
Women's bodies have been front and center in political discussions for months, yet surprisingly, women's health and reproductive rights didn't get a nod until the second presidential debate. While abortion was briefly discussed during the vice presidential debate between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan, Salon's Irin Carmon noted that the question of abortion was couched in terms of religion, not women's rights.
Mounting evidence suggests that as a country we are moving backwards, systematically rolling back the rights women fought so hard to gain in the 1960s and '70s. Are we entering a new era of Comstockery, a time when birth control was illegal, disseminating information about contraceptives was cause for arrest and a black market for contraceptives—not to mention back alley abortions—was a matter of course?
In 1873 Congress passed the Comstock Act, which, among other things, defined contraceptives as "obscene" and made it a crime to distribute birth control. Named after moral crusader Anthony Comstock, the law was intended to curb what Comstock and his supporters saw as the troubling growth of the vice trades, including prostitution and various forms of commercial "smut." Efforts to regulate public morality, while certainly not new, now included birth control, and the effects of this law would be felt for the next hundred years.
Comstock was just 29 when the law bearing his name went into effect. As a special agent with the U.S. Post Office, he was appointed to oversee its enforcement, and for the next few decades he crisscrossed the country by train, orchestrating raids and arresting smut peddlers—including people who manufactured and distributed birth control. He would later boast that during his career he had convicted enough people to fill a 61-coach passenger train, and that he had destroyed 160 tons of "obscene" literature.
Comstock didn't discriminate between frank representations of pornography, medical texts with educational value and leaflets containing birth control information. He tirelessly pursued those he thought were criminals, donning disguises, answering ads with false names, employing henchmen and doing whatever he felt was necessary to further his crusade. He raided brothels, hunted pornographers, arrested physicians, hounded birth control advocate Margaret Sanger and entrapped abortion providers. While Comstock's supporters commended his tireless fight against immorality and evil, his enemies publicly accused him of ignoring the personal liberties protected by the U.S. Constitution. For Comstock, the battle lines were clear: He was engaged in a noble war between virtue and vice, purity and impurity, God and Satan.
As historian Andrea Tone points out in Devices and Desires: A History of Contraceptives in America, Comstock's views on fertility control and contraceptives mirrored what many of his late 19th century contemporaries believed. Natural forms of fertility control, such as abstinence or the rhythm method, were permissible within the context of marriage; but it was the increasingly "public face" of contraceptives and their association with the vice trades that was cause for concern. Contraceptives were associated with promiscuity, and were thus part of what Tone describes as a "domino effect of evil": Contraceptives led to lust, and lust must be contained for the good of society.
Wrapped up in all of this were powerful ideas about protecting female purity on the one hand and women's "natural" role as mothers on the other. To divorce sexual intercourse from procreation and suggest that sex could be "just for fun" was to pose a fundamental challenge to what many people viewed as the natural order of things. And it wasn't just the use of contraceptives that was deemed "unnatural." According to Tone, this assessment included women who stayed unmarried, went to college and opted to remain childless.
Although Comstock failed to eliminate the commercial market for contraceptives, he did manage to push information about birth control further underground and create the conditions for a thriving black market. Contraceptive entrepreneurs routinely disguised their products and patents through creative labeling, adopting strategies of social camouflage that relied heavily on euphemisms such as "protection" and "safety," or references to "feminine hygiene."
Comstock's most enduring legacy, however, is arguably his legislative one. Following the federal adoption of the Comstock Act, 24 states enacted "mini Comstock" laws prohibiting the sale and advertisement of birth control and birth control information within state lines. And although the FDA approved the birth control pill in 1960, obscenity laws in Connecticut and Massachusetts prevented even married women from getting the pill from their physicians until 1965, when the Supreme Court struck down the Connecticut law, declaring that married couples had a constitutional right to privacy. It wasn't until 1972, seven years later, that the same right was extended to unmarried individuals.
Recent efforts to curtail reproductive rights, restrict access to birth control, roll back Roe v. Wade, redefine rape and vilify sexually active women are concerning in their own right, but in the context of Comstock they become a looming threat to women across party lines. Reproductive freedom is not a fringe issue, but a basic human right worth protecting.

After a national tour that covered 100 shows in 138 days across 39 states, local band Memphibians is back home in Jacksonville rehearsing and preparing two new full-length records as well as a couple of 7-inch upcoming releases.
Self-described as a "post-junk" band, Memphibians consists of members James Arthur Bayer III, Kathleen D'Elia, Andrew Felts and Kevin Lee Newberry.
"One Spark is the perfect opportunity to potentially introduce Memphibians to a wider audience while participating in what may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as a local Jacksonville artist,"Bayer said.
Formed in 2008, the band soon began a label, Infintesmal Records, and started promoting local shows as well as releasing albums by some of its favorite area artists. In 2011, Memphibians finally released its own debut record, "How To Be Followed Alone," and then dropped an EP, "The Dirty Future."
"I believe Memphibians is directly related and connected to Jacksonville," Bayer said. "The music is born in Jacksonville, recorded in Jacksonville and most certainly influenced by and a reaction to Jacksonville.
"I believe One Spark has the potential to be incredibly important to Jacksonville. I also believe that Jacksonville is the perfect guinea pig to attempt an event like One Spark. We're certainly large enough and house an incredible amount of creative and innovative people."

Movie News & Reviews
'Song' escapes maudlin roots
The trick for any starlet making the transition from teen queen to adult roles is finding just enough edge. Miley Cyrus does that with "The Last Song," a film built around a rebellious but still family-friendly teen dealing with love and loss in vintage Nicholas Sparks fashion.
Sparks wrote the book and script, about a troubled girl sent to spend the summer with her father (Greg Kinnear), with Cyrus in mind. Thus, Veronica "Ronnie" Miller might pout like a teen, dress like a New York tart headed for trouble and already have a police record. But she's still one of Sparks' "good girls," with a generous heart, a sense of right and wrong and a gift for bringing out the best in that boy whose eye she catches the day she wanders the Georgia beach where Dad lives.
But Ronnie is still irked over her parents' divorce (Kelly Preston is Mom) and is happy to punish Dad, ignoring the little brother (Bobby Coleman) who needs them all to get along.
Two things soften Ronnie's hard shell. She discovers a sea turtle nest and vows to protect it from raccoons. And she meets a boy. Will (Liam Hemsworth) might have a reputation, but something about Ronnie makes him get serious, or at least serious about showing her he's serious.
"Will has lots of friends," one ex-girlfriend purrs to Ronnie. "He makes us all feel special."
Slack pacing, sappy situations and banal dialogue plague films built on Sparks' novels, slow-footed movies such as "Nights in Rodanthe" and "Dear John."
Julie Anne Robinson, a TV veteran, directs her way around some of these pitfalls by keeping the story on its feet – moving from beach to boardwalk to class clashes between the rougher locals and Ronnie.
The "simple pleasures" of a Sparks story – carving your girlfriend's initials on a tree, Dad's atonement of making a new stained glass window for the church, finding magic on a beach (baby turtles), volunteering at the Georgia Aquarium – don't play as much ado about not much.
Robinson skips past those moments and keeps the focus on young love, a parent reconnecting with his child and lingering guilt.
It's not a great film, with some of the edge Sparks put in the novel left out of the script. But there's real chemistry between the young lovers and an old-fashioned virtue to the father-daughter and father-daughter's boyfriend scenes.
Sparks often goes overboard with the maudlin and "old fashioned." But with "The Last Song," those traits don't feel like a wet sack smothering the life right out of it.

Jay Don Blake leads Champions Tour finale
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Defending champion Jay Don Blake was back on top in the Champions Tour finale. Fred Couples also found himself on the leaderboard in his first tour start in nearly 10 weeks.
Blake birdied three of the final four holes for a 6-under 64 and a one-stroke lead Thursday in the Charles Schwab Cup Championship. Last year, he won at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco.
"It's been a long time since I've been able to defend a title," Blake said. "I have to admit I was nervous. I didn't know what to expect. I was just hoping to play well."
Gary Hallberg shot a 65 in perfect conditions on a warm day at Desert Mountain, and Couples was another stroke back along with Jay Haas, Olin Browne and Bill Glasson.
Couples is playing for the first time since a back injury forced him to withdraw during the first round of the Boeing Classic outside Seattle in late August. He completed a round for the first time since winning the Senior British Open in July for his second victory of the year.
"Beginner's luck," Couples joked after birdieing the final two holes on the Cochise Course. "I hit the ball solid. I'm thrilled to death to be 4 under."
Charles Schwab Cup leader Bernhard Langer birdied the final two holes for a 69, second-place Tom Lehman shot a 68, and third-place Roger Chapman had a 69.
"I'm very happy with my finish," Langer said.
Langer has a 211-point lead over Lehman and 657-point advantage over Chapman in the race for the $1 million annuity. The tournament winner will get 880 points, with players receiving a point for every $500 they earn in the $2.5 million event.
Langer and Lehman would win the season title with a victory, while Chapman needs a victory and some help to top the standings.
"Obviously, in the back of your head, there is always, 'What does everyone else do?'" Langer said. "But I can't control any of the other players."
The German star has two victories this season and leads the money list with $2,023,296. He's coming off a playoff loss to David Frost on Sunday in San Antonio.
Lehman, a Scottsdale resident, also has two victories this year.
"I'm disappointed with my scoring," Lehman said. "I misread a lot of putts and when you misread your putts you start to doubt your reads and the stroke sometimes follows suit. I think it's more about commitment, committing to a line and just rolling the putt."
The tournament is the 50-and-over tour's first in Arizona since the 2002 Tradition at Superstition Mountain. The Tradition, a Champions Tour major, was played on the Jack Nicklaus-designed Cochise Course from 1989-2001.
"The conditions are just beautiful," said Hallberg, a three-time PGA Tour winner who won his lone Champions Tour title in 2010. "I mean perfect lies in the fairways. You could really get the ball solid. But the greens are tricky. I think that's the defense of this course."
While Blake often plays similar desert courses in his hometown of St. George, Utah, he struggled with his distance control with shots flying farther because of the heat, low humidity and altitude at the mountainside layout.
"I drove it really well and the balls were going so far out there," Blake said. "The hard part right now for me to figure out is what iron shot, whether I need to hit a hard 8 or an easy 7. Sometimes, I hit a hard 8 and it goes 175 (yards). ... I feel like I'm making some bad swings on some of the irons because I'm a little leery of the distance it is going."
Blake won the Boeing Classic for his third career Champions Tour victory. He won his lone PGA Tour title in 1991.
"I've played well the last couple of months, the last few tournaments, so I had some confidence coming in," Blake said.

A man accused of killing a TSA officer last month in a shooting rampage at Los Angeles International Airport was ordered to remain in custody without bail and return to court later this month at a federal court hearing Wednesday morning in a Southern California jail.
More Coverage: LAX Shooting | TSA Officer Coroner's Report | Timeline of Events
Paul Anthony Ciancia, 23, was not required to enter a plea during the proceeding at the West Valley Detention Center in San Bernardino County. Bail was denied, as requested by prosecutors, and the judge scheduled a preliminary hearing for Dec. 18 and arraignment for Dec. 26.
Ciancia was represented by a public defender in a room with a capacity of about 15 people. The room is usually used for probation parole hearings and criminal identification lineups.
Ciancia, who appeared with marks on his face and a wrapping around his neck, responded to all questions with "Yes" and "No" answers. Cameras were not allowed in the temporary court room.
Details regarding the wrap, possibly worn because of injuries suffered when he was shot by airport police, were not available.
If he is indicted before Dec. 18, the preliminary hearing date is likely to change. Both upcoming hearings are scheduled to be conducted in United States District Court in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles man faces a first-degree murder charge in connection with the Nov. 1 shooting death of TSA officer Gerardo Hernandez. Ciancia allegedly pulled a semiautomatic weapon from a bag at a TSA checkpoint in Terminal 3 at LAX, then shot Hernandez at what investigators described as point-blank range.
Witnesses told investigators that Ciancia began walking away, but returned to fire more rounds at Hernandez when he noticed the 39-year-old father of two was still moving. He then continued firing the weapon inside the terminal at the nation's third-busiest airport before he was shot during a confrontation with airport police, according to the federal complaint.
Ciancia was hospitalized after the shooting, but released into federal custody Nov. 19 and transferred to the detention center about 40 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.
The federal complaint filed against Ciancia alleges that he was targeting TSA officers. He could face the death penalty, if convicted.

A second security officer and a teacher from Southern California were also struck by gunfire in the rampage. They have been released from the hospital.

Dear Colleague:
The purpose of this letter is to inform you and your staff that we will soon be collecting gender equity in athletics statistics as required by section 485(g) of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, 20 U.S.C. 1092(g)(also known as the Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act). If your institution is co-educational and has an intercollegiate athletic program, this Act requires your institution to provide this information as a condition for its continued participation in the Federal student financial aid programs.
We plan to collect these data using the World Wide Web. We are pleased to be able to provide the data collection instrument in a user-friendly format that will allow your institution to report the data electronically. The electronic format will eliminate the need for mailing and processing paper questionnaires and should significantly reduce your reporting burden and improve the timeliness of the data.
The purpose of this collection is to provide prospective student-athletes the information to help them to make decisions about their potential or continued enrollment in a postsecondary institution. Prospective and current students, and the public, use the information to assess an institution's commitment to and progress toward gender equity in its intercollegiate athletic program. The Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act (EADA) requires a co-ed institution that participates in a title IV, HEA Federal student financial assistance program and has an intercollegiate athletic program to prepare an annual report to the Department of Education on athletic participation, staffing, and revenues and expenses, by men's and women's teams. Section 485(g) also requires the Department to submit a report to Congress concerning gender equity in intercollegiate athletics and to make this report to Congress, and the institutional reports, publicly available.
The Department anticipates that institutions, such as yours, will continue to work with us in a cooperative and timely fashion to carry out this important information collection effort. I would like your assistance to ensure that all campus administrators assigned the responsibility of compiling the data for this survey are aware of the web-based data collections and the importance of reporting within the prescribed timeframes.
The Department plans to assist your institution by providing many opportunities for your institution to receive the technical assistance needed to complete the form on the Internet. The Department has a toll-free telephone number and detailed online instructions for institutions to use while they are completing their report. We will provide the toll-free number with the URL for the online instructions when we send you your institution's user ID and password.
Listed below is the planned schedule for the data collection on the Internet for 2000.
|Follow-up Mailing with User Ids and Passwords
|August 21, 2000
|On-line Registration and Data Collection Begins
|September 5, 2000
|Data Collection Closes
|October 30, 2000
|Report to Congress Completed
|December 15, 2000
The implementing regulations are in 34 C.F.R. 668.48. These regulations can be found on the Department of Education's website at the following URL:
If you just wish to review the changes in the regulations as a result of the Higher Education Amendments of 1998, these changes are discussed in the Final Regulation published on November 1, 1999, which can be found on the Department of Education's website at the following URL:
I urge you to share this information with the appropriate official on your campus and to forward any questions you have to David Bergeron at 202-502-7814 or via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and support for this data collection effort.

BEMIDJI, Minn. (Feb. 10, 2010) — Bemidji State University's Office of Admissions will be hosting a Minnesota College Goal Sunday event at Bemidji High School to provide free information and assistance to families of high school seniors, regardless of the student's future college plans.
The event will be held at Bemidji High School from 1-3 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 21. Bemidji High School is located at 2900 Division Street West, Bemidji.
College Goal Sunday is a national program that provides free information and assistance to families who are filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, the federally required form for students seeking financial aid such as grants and loans. Completing the form is the first and most important step in qualifying for aid.
The workshop is designed for those who are low income or have no family history of attending college. However, any student who feels that financial aid is needed to attend college and who needs help applying for that aid is encouraged to attend the workshop. The workshop is not limited to students who plan to attend Bemidji State University; it is open to all college-bound high school seniors.
The workshop can even be beneficial to students who have yet to make a decision on completing their education after high school. Completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid does not obligate the student to attend school, and this important form will be completed in case the student decides to attend college later in the year.
Minnesota's College Goal Sunday workshops are held at a variety of locations throughout the state between Feb. 1 and May 1 each year.
Students should attend with a parent or guardian if possible, and shoulud bring their parents' completed federal income tax return, W-2 statements and other income and benefits information. If parents are unable to attend, students may attend alone and bring this information. Independent students may bring their own income and asset information.
A downloadable fact sheet is available at the Minnesota College Goal Sunday Web site (URL below) containing a checklist of items to bring along.
For more information, please contact Bemidji State's Office of Admissions at (218) 755-2263.

I would prefer a separate sentence clarifying that the "old" first page is still first also "after" the page break (so to speak). Probably both in this section (13.2.2) and 13.3.4, since it matters to both the selector and the actual page count. Actually, the css3-page ED (but not the WD) seems to mostly cover what I'm looking for (except the "explicitly force" bit is in a section separated from the selectors stuff. Also, the "Forced page breaks" section only talks about the "multiple 'page-break-*' properties" case in the context of content-empty pages). -- Øyvind Stenhaug Core Norway, Opera Software ASAReceived on Thursday, 25 November 2010 18:03:51 UTC

How to Use the Seated Hip-Rotation Test
The seated hip-rotation test is designed to measure the relative degree of rotation flexibility in your hips. This test can identify whether you have significant tightness in one or both hips that may be interfering with your ability to rotate your hips during your golf swing.
Poor hip rotation is one of the major causes of low back pain for golfers and can cause poor full-swing performance and inconsistency.
1Sit forward in a chair.
Make sure that your spine isn't resting against the back of the chair.
2Cross your right leg over your left knee so that the outer part of your right ankle rests on the top of your left knee.
Sit as tall as possible with your spine straight.
3Without losing your sitting posture, take both hands and gently apply downward pressure to the top of your right knee.
Push until you can't comfortably push your shin any closer to a position parallel to the floor.
4When you've reached the limit of stretch for your right hip, observe the results.
Determine your relative difficulty in achieving this position, the specific location and degree of tightness in your body, and the relative angle of your right shin in relation to the floor.
5Slowly release your right knee and repeat the test with your left ankle resting on your right knee.
Compare the results of testing both hips and determine whether one or both hips have rotation-flexibility limitations.

Styles cover anything from flat to barrel-shaped tile, and either can change the appearance of a roof substantially.
There is also a wide selection of very carefully blended hues that range from subtle tints to vibrant colours, and wood and slate textures that mimic nature.
As well as tile's unique beauty, most concrete and clay tile manufacturers generally offer a minimum 50-year limited warranty on their products. For individuals, this warranty covers their roofing material for as long as they own their homes.

Hyperversity Driven by Technical & Cost Differences
Gabriel Consulting Group's recent annual x86 Data Center Surveys have shown that the average x86 enterprise customer is using three different hypervisors to virtualize their workloads. Their latest survey shows that most customers aren't simply test-driving them in hopes of finding the "One True Hypervisor." They have solid reasons, primarily focused on cost and technical differences, for using multiple solutions and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. This survey digs deeper into the multiple hypervisor question.

Niners' Colin Kaepernick sheds run-first QB label
ATLANTA – Good luck classifying Colin Kaepernick.
A week after the San Francisco 49ers quarterback ran for 181 yards, more than any other quarterback in playoff history, the 49ers decided to let the other players run and let Kaepernick throw.
Kaepernick led the 49ers to a 28-24 come-from-behind win against Atlanta in Sunday's NFC Championship game, and he did it not with his legs, but with his strong right arm and calm demeanor that hardly showed he was making only his ninth career start.
BOX SCORE:Niners 28, Falcons 24
RECAP:49ers dig out of big hole
49ERS:Harbaugh goes wild after controversial call
Those designed quarterback runs? The read-option quarterback keepers? They were virtually non-existent in San Francisco's 28-24 win against Atlanta. Kaepernick ran just twice Sunday, and his only called running went for a two-yard loss. He picked up 23 yards on a scramble in the third quarter after the rest of a play had broken down.
So can we finally quit with the idea that Kaepernick is a run-first quarterback?
"I don't want to be categorized. I want to be my own man," Kaepernick said.
As Kaepernick stood at the interview podium inside the Georgia Dome, still in his full uniform but with a super-sized NFC championship T-shirt pulled over his shoulder pads, it's hard to remember that just 2.5 months ago, he was just Alex Smith's backup; the guy who would run a few wildcat snaps per game.
Kaepernick got his chance to start when Smith suffered a concussion in early November, but kept the job when it quickly became clear he wasn't giving it back. It was a bold and controversial move by Harbaugh, to bail on the quarterback who nearly led his team to last year's Super Bowl, for an unproven second-year player.
"I'm just thankful he made that decision," Kaepernick said.
On Sunday in Atlanta, just the threat that at anytime Kaepernick might take off running seemed to have the Falcons spooked. With the Falcons determined not to let Kaepernick get free around the edges, the 49ers rediscovered the rest of their running game, both through the option (see LaMichael James' 15-yard second-quarter touchdown) and the good old-fashioned inside handoff (Frank Gore's nine-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter).
Gore, who had 90 yards and a pair of touchdowns, interrupted Kaepernick's postgame media conference and began gushing about the quarterback, including Kaepernick's savvy to freeze the Falcons' defense by delaying the handoff to Gore on what wound up being Gore's game-winning touchdown run.
"You know Kap, man. He knows he can make plays," Gore said. "I felt he held it a little bit. But I got it and I said, 'I'm gonna score.'"
Gore, as well as other teammates, said Kaepernick wasn't rattled during a dismal first quarter in which the 49ers didn't manage a first down in two series. Kaepernick had only one passing yard and took a sack while his quarterback counterpart, Matt Ryan, led the Falcons to a 17-0 lead.
"If it wasn't for him, it would have been a tough game today, and I'm happy he stayed poised," Gore said.

Helping patients who need an unrelated bone marrow or umbilical cord blood transplant
The C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program (CWBYCTP) provides support to patients who need a potentially life-saving bone marrow transplant (also called a BMT) or umbilical cord blood transplant. For some patients who have leukemia, lymphoma, sickle cell anemia, or other inherited metabolic or immune system disorders, a bone marrow or cord blood transplant may be their best chance to live longer, healthier lives.
A donor for a marrow or cord blood transplant may be available from a patient's family; however, many patients depend on an unrelated donor. The CWBYCTP's purpose is to help patients who need a transplant from an unrelated marrow donor or cord blood unit by:

February 14, 2014, Denver (ISN) – The Vancouver Stealth (3-6) dominated the Colorado Mammoth (4-6) 19-9 at the Pepsi Centre in Denver, on Friday night. With the win the Stealth bump the slump earning their first victory in five games, their first road win and they evened the season series with Colorado at two games apiece.
It was an impressive first half for the Stealth as their offense came out firing on all cylinders scoring nine goals to Colorado's one, in the first period. At the end of the first half the Stealth led 13-4 and were in complete control of the game,
"We had our backs against the wall a little bit so it was time to see what we were made of," said Stealth head coach, Chris Hall.
"It was also the first time this season that we pretty much had our offense from last year intact."
The offense continued to stay hot in the second half as the Stealth scored another 10 goals on route to a huge victory.
The Stealth were led by Brett Bucktooth who had a monster night, collecting a remarkable 12 points (6+6),
"Bucktooth was obviously phenomenal tonight," said coach Hall.
"He played well last week too but we were without Duchee and we finally had our captain back on defense and he's our leader back there."
Bucktooth was playing in just his second game of the season after missing time with injury, and it was his first game back alongside Rhys Duch this season. The two proved to be unstoppable tonight, as Duch had a breakout game as well, after missing last week's game with a suspension, he had four goals and seven assists.
Cliff Smith and Tyler Digby also contributed in a big way tonight tallying a combined 15 points. Smith had three goals and five assists, and Digby added one goal and six assists.
It was also a big night for another Stealth rookie, as Chris Wardle scored his first career NLL goal in highlight reel fashion, in just his second career game.
The Stealth were clicking in all aspects of their game tonight and will look to carry that momentum into tomorrow night's game against the Calgary Roughnecks. It's another important divisional matchup as the Stealth could pull even with Colorado in the Western Division standings with a win.
Game time tomorrow night is 6PM PST at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary. The game can also be seen on YouTube via The Lacrosse Network.

Amazon bought a thing that does a thing it helps Amazon do, so presumably the first thing will help out with Amazon's thing more, we think. Ordinarily, this isn't the kind of story we'd post to Gizmodo, but in light of the fact that there's basically literally nothing happening in tech today, here you go. Let's talk about it.
The thing that Amazon bought is called IVONA Software. IVONA Software is ten years old which means it's half way to its 20s and that's the decade when you find out who you really are. IVONA Software does lots of text-to-speech stuff, which is good because Amazon has books and those books have lots of text Amazon would like to turn into speech. (IVONA's actually already used in a bunch of those features like Immersive Reading, but whatever.) And for those of you think that text-to-speech is just for lazy people who don't read good, it's not (but it is a little)! It's also so Amazon can get money from blind people too and also help them "read books".
In conclusion, please god let something else happen today. [Amazon]

In the summer, when there is an abundance of produce available from our 28 Island farms, it's easy for Vineyarders to plan meals based on local, seasonal food. But even with the vernal equinox upon us, winter is still maintaining its hold on our gardens, so making a meal based on Island food can be a challenge. Rebecca Miller, farmer and co-owner (with her husband Matthew Dix) of North Tabor Farm in Chilmark, is up to the task.
"We've still got onions, although they're starting to sprout, and garlic, it's sprouting a little too, but still really flavorful," Ms. Miller said. "We've got potatoes, leeks, collard greens and kale. Plus blueberries we froze and tomatoes we canned in the fall, and the best fresh winter food: carrots."
Ms. Miller said her family eats a lot of soup through the winter months. "One of our favorite soups is this carrot soup, topped with cashews," she said.
When the family first began to grow carrots, they were so bitter Ms. Miller was going to feed them only to the horses. "We didn't realize carrots needed cold weather to really get the best flavor from them," she said, holding up the bunch she's about to chop for the soup. "These are so sweet and good now, I couldn't give them to the horses!"
Ms. Miller is one of the founders of Island Grown Initiative, the nonprofit organization that actively encourages Island residents to "eat locally" and support sustainable agriculture. The group hosts speakers and potluck dinners, circulates a brochure that maps the locations of all Island farms, and has acquired a mobile poultry processing unit for Vineyarders who raise their own chickens so they also are able to process them on Island.
"Before IGI my whole family was vegetarian," Ms. Miller said. "Now my husband and one of my daughters have turned. But we made a deal that if they were going to eat meat, we'd raise it ourselves. So we raised pigs. Now they've been pigging out on pig all winter."
She said the farm has just received Federal Department of Agriculture approval to sell pork, so in addition to their fresh greens, produce and eggs, North Tabor Farm also will offer Island-raised pork to Islanders.
Ms. Miller said it was more of a challenge, now, cooking for a family with diverse tastes. "I'm not a chef," she professed. "I'm a mom-cook, you know? Everything is based on avoiding the "Eeew, I don't like that" reaction from one of the kids."
Her carrot soup satisfies vegetarians and meat-eaters alike, she said. "It's so nutritious and hearty, and a little sweet, so really kid-friendly," she said.
Ms. Miller discovered the dish a dozen years ago, in a little London restaurant she would go to while on a cultural exchange program through the University of Connecticut. She still follows The Cranks Restaurant basic recipe:
1 large onion
1 small potato
1 large cooking apple
2 oz. butter
2 pints vegetable stock
2 oz. broken cashew nuts
pinches of salt and pepper
Over the years, Ms. Miller has augmented the recipe to suit her family's tastes, by sometimes using green apples instead of cooking apples.
The original recipe calls for the vegetables and apples to be rough chopped, then sautéed in butter for five minutes before adding all other ingredients, including the nuts; next, bring to a boil, simmer for half an hour, then cool and liquify in a blender before reheating to serve.
Ms. Miller sautés the nuts separately in tamari and maple syrup, then sprinkles them on top of the soup when she serves it.
She also often waits a day, after cooling and liquefying, so the flavors really settle in.
"Soup always tastes better the next day," she said.

Prabhakar Raghavan, the head of Yahoo's Labs unit, is leaving the company to take a job at Google -- just after Yahoo chief executive Scott Thompson announced major layoffs and cuts for both the company and Raghavan's division.
Raghavan, who had been at Yahoo for seven years, did not say what his new position at Google would be, but Yahoo released this statement: "Yahoo! thanks Prabhakar Raghavan for his dedication and contributions to Yahoo! for the past 7 years. We wish him well in his next endeavor. Ash Munshi, CTO, will assume leadership for Y! Labs."
Thompson has now hired the Boston Consulting Group to streamline Yahoo and determine its future path, according to AllThingsD. As we have written before, Thompson is all about getting Yahoo in the black (and how!) this quarter so he looks like a fabulous CEO. He cares about the short game, not the long one, because it's obvious he wants a better gig somewhere else. This little stint at Yahoo will be his resume builder.
In the meantime, all talent at Yahoo would wisely be jumping ship to avoid the company implosion.

CHICAGO, May 2 (UPI) -- Jesus Guzman ignited a four-run, eighth-inning rally Thursday that carried the San Diego Padres to a 4-2 win over the Chicago Cubs.
Cubs starter Travis Wood took a two-hit shutout and 2-0 lead into the eighth but Guzman reached on an infield hit and by the time the Cubs got out of the inning, the Padres had five hits, two walks and a hit batter that combined for four runs.
Wood (2-2) retired the first 14 San Diego batters and faced one over the minimum through seven innings. Guzman's single was followed by a walk to Kyle Blanks. Wood got two outs but Yonder Alonso singled in a run.
Shawn Camp replaced Wood bug a passed ball, on which Blanks reached home, tied the score at 2-2. Camp walked Chris Denorfia and was pulled for James Russell, whose second pitch was hit into center for an RBI single from Everth Cabrera. Chase Headley singled in another run for the 4-2 lead.
San Diego starter Eric Stults gave up a two-run home run to Scott Hairston in the seventh. He was pulled later in the inning and Joe Thatcher (2-0) got the final out of the inning the ended up with the win. Huston Street allowed a double and had a strike out in picking up his sixth save.
