Young Conservatives
I wondered what happened to all of the liberals that I had hoped to pal around with in college. I found a few, but they were far between. I was often the only one in arguments who would take the liberal view. But I didn't consider myself persecuted. I was just outnumbered, and overall I could have friendly arguments with them. Sometimes they would say stupid things that made my blood boil. It had to do with their racism, and it was a particularly nasty sort of racism.

OCC Bulletin 2004-7| January 15, 2004
Reporting and Disclosure Requirements for National Banks with Securities Registered Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; Securities Offering Disclosure Rules: Final Rule
Chief Executive Officers of All National Banks, Federal Branches and Agencies, Department and Division Heads, and All Examining Personnel
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) published the attached final rule in the Federal Register on December 9, 2003. The final rule, entitled "Reporting and Disclosure Requirements for National Banks With Securities Registered Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; Securities Offering Disclosure Rules," amends 12 CFR 11, which implements section 12(i) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), and 12 CFR 16, which governs the sale of securities issued by national banks that are not required to be registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act). The final rule became effective on January 8, 2004.
Titles III and IV of the Sarbanes–Oxley Act included a number of provisions that are designed to improve the corporate governance and financial disclosures of public securities issuers. All registered national banks are public securities issuers for purposes of the law. Pursuant to the amendments to section 12(i) made by the Sarbanes–Oxley Act, the OCC administers and enforces certain provisions of the act with respect to registered national banks.
Part 11 of the OCC's regulations currently applies the reporting and disclosure provisions of sections 12, 13, 14(a), 14(c), 14(d), 14(f), and 16 of the Exchange Act to registered national banks, and requires those national banks to file any reports or forms required by such regulations with the OCC (rather than the SEC). The final rule amends part 11 of OCC rules to add cross-references to the new provisions that the OCC is required by the Sarbanes–Oxley Act to administer and enforce. The effect of the proposal will be to conform the OCC's rules to the amendment to section 12(i) made by the Sarbanes–Oxley Act.
Part 16 of the OCC's regulations sets forth rules governing the offer and sale of securities by national bank issuers that are not subject to the registration and reporting requirements of the Securities Act. Section 16.20 of the regulation mirrors the requirements of section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and requires each national bank that files a registration statement that has been declared effective by the OCC to file the current and periodic reports required by section 13 of the Exchange Act in accordance with the SEC's regulation 15D, as if the securities covered by the registration statement were securities registered pursuant to section 12 of the Exchange Act.
The final rule amends section 16.20 by adding a reference to section 13 of the Exchange Act and to cross-reference the requirements of the revised 12 CFR 11.2(a)(1)(ii). The effect of the final rule is to require banks filing registration statements pursuant to part 16 to comply with the rules issued by the SEC pursuant to those sections of the Exchange Act, including new subsection 10A(m), and those provisions of the Sarbanes–Oxley Act that are directly applicable to other section 15(d) filers and that the OCC is authorized to enforce.

Military Grounds Multi-Billion Dollar Fleet of Fighter Jets
(WASHINGTON) -- The military has grounded its entire fleet of F-35 stealth fighters, the most expensive weapons program in history, after finding a crack in one of the multi-million-dollar plane's engines.
The grounding comes just days after the Marine Corps gave its variation of the fighter the green light to fly again after its own month-long grounding for an unrelated problem.
The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program office released a statement Friday saying a routine engine inspection on Feb. 19 "revealed a crack on a low-pressure turbine blade of an F-35 engine" and the office took the "precautionary measure" of suspending all F-35 flight operations.
"The F-35 Joint Program Office is working closely with [engine maker] Pratt & Whitney and [primary plane manufacturer] Lockheed Martin at all F-35 locations to ensure the integrity of the engine, and to return the fleet safely to flight as soon as possible."
The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program, which has a baseline price tag of over a third of $1 trillion as of last March, represents America's costly foray into fifth-generation stealth fighters along with the troubled $79 billion F-22 Raptor.
The plane comes in three variants: an Air Force version with standard takeoff and landing capabilities, a Navy version designed to take off and land from aircraft carriers and the Marine version, which is designed to land vertically like Britain's famous Harrier jet. The military currently has 58 planes total, but plans to purchase more than 2,400 more in order to replace the aging F-16 and F-18 legacy fighters.
The F-35 program has suffered a long history of delays and cost overruns, which officials said is partially because it is one of the most complex weapons systems in history and because it was put into production far too early – before major issues could be found.
This time last year Frank Kendall, then the Pentagon's Acting Undersecretary for Defense Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, said that the government's plan to field the plane was so reckless it amounted to "acquisition malpractice."
The engine itself has not been without controversy as well. For months General Electric teamed up with Rolls Royce to provide the military with an engine to compete with Pratt & Whitney, even though the military repeatedly said a second engine was not necessary. The alternate engine was partially funded by the U.S. government to the tune of $3 billion before it was called off in December 2011.
Despite its well-documented problems, the F-35 is seen by top military and government officials as the backbone of America's future air power. The F-35 Program Office said it is currently investigating the cause of the engine crack.

Still only 28 Willy Mason is increasingly sounding the old soul. His third album, and first for new label Fiction, sees some of the idealism, along with many of the rough edges of his earlier records worked on like sanded wood. What's left is smoother, warmer and perhaps a little less charming. It's polished maple, as opposed to folksy whittling, and some may miss the wide-eyed wonder of his classic 'Oxygen'. What we have in its place is an often accomplished, rather sad set of songs presided over by a voice that is improving as it ages. If he lives to be as old as Johnny Cash he's going to sound amazing.
Produced by Hot Chip/MIA/Kylie collaborator Dan Carey, you'd be forgiven for expecting something substantially more upbeat, but the overarching feel here is one of sadness, and a quiet longing. Carey creates lovely, subtle beds for Masons solid-oak voice, using a combination of acoustic drum boxes and understated electronica, while Mason keeps things simple, usually with strummed acoustic guitar and quiet rumble of bass. It's a far more elegant approach than either 2004's Where The Humans Eat or 2006's If The Ocean Gets Rough. Early press for the record promised a departure with 'dub and reggae' influences, which is overstating things somewhat - Mason rarely strays from the forms of blues, folk and country, despite the playful, choppy percussion. The one notable exception - and the record's clear highlight - is the mesmerising six minutes of 'Restless Fugitive', which does features a swaying, dubby bass over a sparse beat, and spidery, reverby guitars. The effect is something akin to Think Tank-era Blur covering the Clash's 'Bank Robber'. It has a solid, compelling groove, deceptively simple and rather wonderful. It's easily the best thing Mason has put his name to since 'Oxygen'.
The centre of the record really is very fine. The sleepy, sad 'Show Me The Way' has a gentle, hungover yearning with its "Show me the way to go home" refrain, possibly a reaction to the themes of travelling, the "keep on moving on", and "keep on walking" of his earlier records. 'Into Tomorrow' is another understated, finger picked shuffle that casts a laid back mood indeed, with Mason on fine lyrical form, including the intriguing line "I wish that I could sing like the trickster in the breeze", while the country-tinged 'I Got Gold' picks up the pace in a likeably knockabout fashion, and 'Painted Glass' has an almost psychedelic groove in its snaking bassline and shimmering, almost drone-like harmonies.
All in, Carry On is a solid, if rarely remarkable work, showcasing an artist maturing at his own pace, and sounding content and comfortable in his form. Though it does shed some of the scrappy idealism that first brought him to our attention it's been replaced with an assurity and a musical confidence that should see Willy Mason a fixture of the landscape for a long time to come.

This is the badge I created for lindyv. She and I have been in loads of swaps together but were never partnered up. It was great to finally get to craft with her! She had a cute bee pincushion on her wish list that inspired this design.
It was made with wool-blend felts and mostly stitched with 1 strand of DNC embroidery floss. The black details on the bee were done with 3 strands of floss because I wanted them to pop a bit more. The two badges are attached with a thin satin ribbon.
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you all have a good week!

Dec. 6, 2003
SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Two goals from Kelechi Igwe sparked the sixth-ranked Santa Clara University men's soccer team to a 3-1 victory over Michigan in the Elite Eight Saturday night at Buck Shaw Stadium. With the win, the Broncos advance to the 2003 College Cup in Columbus, Ohio, the fifth trip to the national semifinals in program history. Santa Clara improves to 16-3-4 overall while Michigan's season ends with a 14-7-1 mark and a quarterfinal appearance in only the fourth year of the program's existence.
Igwe scored SCU's first goal at the 10:15 mark of the first half as he slid the ball past Wolverine netminder Peter Dzubay for a 1-0 lead. Igwe's fifth goal of the year was setup off a throw in from Matt Upton whose toss was flicked on by Kirk Fonseca to the waiting feet of Igwe.
Michigan responded at the 28:31 mark when Mychal Turpin netted his 14th goal of the season on a one-touch goal off a deft crossing pass from Ryan Sterba.
From there both teams remained physical on the field as the rain continued to pour on an already soaked Buck Shaw Stadium surface. As the end of the first stanza approached both teams seemed destined to enter the locker rooms tied at the intermission. However, a costly handball inside the penalty box by a Michigan player gave Jason Cunliffe a free kick from the mark and he gave the Broncos' a 2-1 lead on the penalty kick at the 42:33 mark.
Both keepers had one save at the break and both teams managed five shots apiece while Santa Clara held a 12-10 advantage in penalties.
In the second half Santa Clara came out as the more aggressive team despite the disparity of time of possession early in the second stanza. The Broncos were whistled for 11 second-half penalties, while the Wolverines committed only four fouls.
As time went on and Michigan continue its pressure forward, the Broncos mounted more and more counter attacks and it finally paid off in the 81st minute as Audren Cashman sent a ball into the 18-yard box where Keith DeVey had his shot deflected off the keeper. The ball bounced off Dzubay's hands right to an oncoming Igwe's who calmly headed home the insurance goal that the Broncos were looking for. His seventh goal of the season and second of the match gave SCU a commanding 3-1 lead with less than 10 minutes to play.
Michigan never really mounted any threatening attack after the third goal was scored by the Broncos, leading many of the 1,917 rowdy fans at "The Shaw" to storm the field when the clock hit triple zero.
With the win, Santa Clara Head coach Cameron Rast can now boast of trips to the College Cup in three different capacities. He led SCU to the Co-National Title with Virginia in 1989 as a sophomore defender for the Broncos and returned again in 1991 when his team was defeated in the Championship match by Virginia, 3-1 on penalty kicks.
As an assistant coach he helped the Broncos to back-to-back appearances in the College Cup in 1998 and 1999. Santa Clara was ousted in both the 1998 semifinals and the 1999 championship match by Indiana University.
Ironically enough, Santa Clara's first opponent in the 2003 College Cup will be Indiana who upset top-ranked UCLA by a 2-1 score Saturday night in Westwood, Calif. The Broncos and Hoosiers will square off Friday, December 12th at the Columbus Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio. The Ohio State University is serving as the host of the 2003 College Cup.

I was assigned a workstation where I work and I needed to install Debian on it. I chose Wheezy because the other machines I use also have it, but I ran into a problem.
The workstation is a Dell Optiplex 990 (I should've opted out of it.), and it has the following ethernet card on it:
$ lspci | grep Network
$ Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network
Apparently, the stable release of Debian 7.1 does not support this driver. The best way to update the more up-to-date version would be to just compile the newer driver.
This is where my trouble begins though. To compile the driver, I need a kernel development package. To create the kernel development package and compile the custom kernel, I need a boatload of other packages (notably gcc, make, etc.) that have a lot of dependencies.
Since I don't want to get too deep inside dependency hell, I was wondering what my best course of action here could be. Trying to install all the dependencies manually will probably result in an error somewhere even if I'm careful, as I'm dealing with kernel stuff here.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Center and Laboratory for Behavioral Operations and Economics
Understanding Human Behavior in Economic Decision-Making Contexts
The Center and Laboratory for Behavioral Operations and Economics (CLBOE) provides researchers in operations, economics and other social and management sciences with a laboratory environment in which the object of study can be manipulated in a controlled way (much as lab techniques are used in natural sciences).
The lab houses a computer network designed to simulate business activities such as markets and negotiations. Study subjects include auctions, inventory management, bargaining and dispute resolution, electronic markets, mechanism design and decision-support systems. UT Dallas faculty and students in the Jindal School of Management are welcome to use the CLBOE for research purposes. The CLBOE is also available to demonstrate games and markets to graduate students. First priority is given to research. Contact Us for more information.
Students Participate, Earn Cash and Help Science!
UT Dallas students from all departments and disciplines can sign up to participate in our experiments. Students will earn cash for their participation and benefit from a learning opportunity. Register to receive invitations for our forthcoming experimental sessions.
Seminars of Interest at UT Dallas
- LBOE Seminar Series
- Operations and Supply Chain Management Seminar Series
- Finance Seminar and Brown-Bag Sessions Seminar Series
Welcome to Center and Laboratory of Behavioral Operations and Economics. Our intent is have a hub for researchers and maintain a professional lab for experiments. The center emphasizes the behavioral research that complements quantitative research and we encourage you to take advantage of our facility.
A hub for researchers at the intersection of operations management, managerial economics and marketing.
Some of the best work in behavioral research comes from cross-pollination of concepts and methods (including outside the realm of research presently considered behavioral). The CLBOE encourages cross-pollinations through researcher networking, seminars, workshops and joint grant proposals, as well as through collaborative PhD mentoring.
Promote behavioral research that complements quantitative research.
Most important strides in behavioral research have resulted from a focus on testing quantitative models or from using behavioral findings to fashion new quantitative models. The center builds on UTD's strength in a quantitative approach to research targeted to top journals.
Maintain a computer laboratory devoted to experimental testing.
The laboratory environment is controlled and can maintain conditions that are conducive to exploring new ideas and concepts. The lab is open to use by researchers across the Jindal School of Management and beyond.
Innovation for learning excellence.
The CLBOE actively promotes the transition of software and related tools from behavioral research to interactive learning tools for the classroom. The lab also provides research opportunities to graduate and undergraduate students through collaborative efforts with research faculty.
Resources for growth.
The CLBOE promotes grant proposals to national agencies such as the National Science Foundation and private agencies such as the Russell Sage Foundation.
Outreach and interaction with the business community.
An important trend in behavior research is the establishment of methods to translate basic research findings into applied science. CBLOE actively promotes connections with the Dallas business community.

Bargs is going old school and bank it in..
Bargs is going old school and bank it in..
The bank opens late in Italy.
It was a well needed win, on to the Rockets.
to be honest i wanted knicks to lose this one... after all the threats that dolan made about winning this game "or else". i felt change was needed and this win will pull us back into a false sense of calm again... no more looking at our issues and just going on as the knicks are. that or maybe i just dont have faith in woodsons favouritism type coachin anymore.
I was cheering for the Knicks to win as always, but I'm not happy either. Not enough ball movement and bad defense. This kind of basketball isn't gonna get this team far.
Sig made by Sons of Thunder
Woodsons gotta go man
I'll take a win anyday, offense was clicking in the first half, if threes is the way to go, keep them coming. Defense still sucks but atleast they are trying way more than the other night against the spurs. Glad to see JR getting back to some of his groove. As for bargnani, he is the player of the game in my book. Yes, he wasn't great in defense, but i lost count of how many times people flew by our guards and he stepped up as the center to atleast try to contest. And for the love of God, i hope melo's improves on his shooting percentage
Despite the win the Knicks need to make some tough decisions:
Trade the farm for a superstar or high draft pick(s)
go to war and lose quick.
Felton cannot guard the point.
We will live and die by the 3... again.
We have no low post presence.
We can't lock down the paint nor rebound.
And TC will be out longer than expected knowing this training staff.
Unless Shump, JR, Barnani, or perhaps THJ is a star I guess
Helluva 8 minute WIN
Props to Shump .. scoring was off, so Shump made it up with, 6 rb, 9 ast, 4 stl, 1 blk, and two important STOPS in crunchtime
(Shump just raised his trade-value)
Dolan will be expecting a WIN tomorow @MSG vs Rockets 6th man - Lin
Rockets loss tonite to Philly .. Lin went 9-15 from 3-ball line
Not to be the downer here but this game was trash...
Yeah we were hitting shots in the first half but I really want to see how many of our points come off of jump shots vs lay ups. Our offensive strategy is HORRIBLE. We may win some games here and there this way but in the playoffs (if we get that far) we will get shut down EZ. We don't go to the basket unless it's Melo on the block and he'd rather fade away in that situation. I thought coming into this year Shump might be that guy but he also prefers to find the 3pt line now. Felton lost all this weight and got faster but all I see is him getting burned and shooting J's.... that's how teams will always stay close no matter what lead we have... eventually we will always go cold and they will lay up themselves back into the game. We settle for J's while the other team works as a team and gets inside buckets. We work hard then settle and they don't. I can't really knock the players too hard cause Woodson is just standing there with the same blank look on his face allowing all this to happen. We call a time out and continue to play the same way.
I really was a supporter of Woodson and I know its still sooooooo early into the season but to me its all about how we play together and right now we look like a bunch of random guys wearing the same jersey. WTF do they do in practice?! It's 7 games in and I feel like I know the entire playbook.
Here's a question.... Would it be better to get a new coach or PGs and a real post up option or 2?
Last edited by MSGhobo247; Nov 14, 2013 at 00:36.
Knicks up 17....
Then Carmelo Anthony happens. He goes 1-6 to end the 2nd quarter and goes 1-9 in the third quarter. We watch this clown go 2-15 and watch the Knicks 17 point lead turn into an 8 point hole. He was refusing to jog back on defense too. Just standing around not caring. How does this clown get a free pass for this?
The only thing that saved the Knicks from there was the mediocre Hawks being the mediocre Hawks... and Bargnani making some shots... and a couple of threes once again dropping late....unbelievably biased ref calls in our favor....
Otherwise this would have been the nightmare game this team NEEDED in order to get those changes made. Instead they win, we're elite title contenders again.
Just disgusting. This is not a win you consider a win.... for what this win did was underscore all that is wrong with this team and why it will not excel in the playoffs.
C'mon y'all a win is a win no asterisk give this team time to gel
The main reason we won last night was because we where ready to play. I guess they like their coach and wanted to save his ass. But can they play hard consistently?
We are a jump shoting team with terrible shooters, no inside game or rebounding to get second chance opportunites.
And whats going on with Melo? 1 of 6 in the second quarter, 1 of 9 in the third. WTF? He lookes very unhappy out there, is not smiling any more. We almost lost last night because of him.

Budget for police dogs stirs debate
New London - The City Council's passage of an ordinance last week mandating a minimum of four police dog teams has stirred up some debate about the cost of the program.
Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio, in a statement this week through his executive assistant Zak Leavy, said Police Chief Margaret Ackley told the City Council last year that the ancillary costs associated with the existing K-9 program would be at least $100,000.
"If the proposed ordinance were to be passed, over the Mayor's veto, and dogs needed to be purchased and trained at the size prescribed by the ordinance, and all five officers' salary were included (i.e. four handlers and one trainer), then the costs of the program could easily be calculated to exceed $500,000," Finizio said in the statement.
Finizio, in his statement, said the current budget has not yet been finalized and the police chief, deputy chief, and finance director were all out of the office until next week and more definitive estimates were not immediately available.
Officer Todd Lynch, who is certified as a police dog trainer and is head of the department's K-9 unit, called the mayor's figures "absurd" and "ludicrous," accusing the mayor of trying to cause a panic and sway public opinion. Lynch is also president of the police union.
The department included about $77,000 in last year's budget for four dogs, and Lynch said he thought that figure was exorbitant.
Lynch said that East Lyme budgets $3,500 for two dogs, Waterford pays $10,000 for its two dogs and Norwich pays about $18,000 for three dogs.
"Not only is that number high," Lynch said of the mayor's estimates, "but we have several dogs that we don't have to train from scratch. (Finizio) is deciding on his own to add additional costs to the city when we don't have the money for it."
Lynch also pointed out that the salary of the officers is being paid regardless of whether or not they are part of a K-9 team.
Council President Michael Passero said the cost of the program is something of a red herring considering "representations to us were that the K-9 unit was fully funded in this year's budget."
Passero said the council fought against the reduction of the K-9 unit in last year's budget, only to see the unit dismantled anyway. The mayor has made no secret of his disapproval of patrol dogs, citing past complaints from bite victims. Earlier this year, he retired Bessie, a bloodhound used for tracking, after her partner took a job with the state police. He also retired Buck, a patrol dog cross-trained in narcotics detection, for medical reasons.
He has since agreed to bring back Bessie, who has been in a kennel in Norwich for the past two months. He has adamantly opposed the return of the German shepherd, Buck.
Finizio has vowed to veto the council's ordinance. Passero said he expects the council to vote at the Aug. 19 meeting to override the veto, which would require six of seven councilors' vote.
The vote will come even as the council wrestles with a rejection of the budget at referendum this week. But some councilors say that the cost of the K-9 program is secondary to the public safety aspect of maintaining the unit.
Once at a high of four teams, the department's unit has dwindled to one.
"You have to do a cost-benefit analysis," Passero said. "It's like debating whether we're going to arm our police officers with guns. From everything I've heard and read, this is a useful police department resource."
Council member Adam Sprecace said he's heard wide-ranging cost estimates and thinks the department's figures to maintain a K-9 unit is inflated.
"From my point of view, all I'm trying (is) to get that unit back where it was," Sprecace said. "I don't really see it as a cost increase. Depending on who you talk to, you're going to get different numbers. At a time when we're being told we need to cut the budget, we still need to maintain services people have come to expect."
Sprecace said he voted against the budget but not the tax rate increase associated with it because it was not the amount he disagreed with, but rather, how the money was being spent.
Lynch, who with his patrol dog Jasper remains the lone dog team on the force, said Buck has several good years of service left, and donations already raised from private citizens will help to pay for the supplements used to treat a mild case of arthritis.

Although not the first state to jump into mind when thinking of waterfowl, Oklahoma has been blessed with many diverse opportunities for waterfowlers. Located at the southern portion of the Central Flyway, Oklahoma is part of the wintering range for many species of ducks and geese. This provides sportsmen an opportunity to pursue their feathered quarry from November through January. Whether it is hunting teal and other puddle ducks on small waters early season, hunting mallards on a river in the coldest parts of winter, going after divers on large reservoirs, or pursuing geese in a grain field, Oklahoma provides an opportunity for you.
Oklahoma has some great waterfowl hunting opportunities: in the northwest Salt Plains, and Fort Supply Lake. In the Panhandle Optima Lake. In north-central Kaw, Hulah and Sooner Lakes. In northeastern Oklahoma Oologah Lake Verdigris River Valley, Ft. Gibson, Grand Lake and Keystone Lake. In southern Oklahoma Eufaula, Kerr Lake, Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge, Wister, Hugo, Red Slough, Sardis and Texoma.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and his bitter opponents in Scotland's nationalist-led autonomous government were today both struggling to contain the continuing damage to their political fortunes a full two weeks after the release of the Libyan agent convicted of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing.
North of the border, the minority administration of the Scottish Nationalist Party (SNP) lost a vote of confidence in the Edinburgh Parliament on the release of Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi from a Scottish prison on compassionate grounds.
The government had asked Parliament to endorse the decision to release Mr. Megrahi as "consistent with the principles of Scottish justice," but lawmakers rejected the bid.
Although the symbolic vote was not an attempt to topple the Scottish government, the decision may further damage the pro-independence party's standing in the eyes of many Scots.
SNP defends 'brave decision'
The SNP leader and Scotland's First Minister, Alex Salmond, came out swinging at the start of the debate on today's vote, describing Megrahi's release as "a difficult, challenging, and brave decision."
"Opinion is divided, but I am proud and happy to have the support within Scotland of the Church of Scotland and Archbishop Mario Conti of the Catholic Church," said Mr. Salmond. "And I am even prouder to have the support of Nelson Mandela, which indicates the respect for a Scottish judicial decision across this planet."
Opposition bemoans 'damaged' reputation
His predecessor, the Labour Party's Jack McConnell, begged to differ. He said there had been assurances that Megrahi would serve out his life sentence behind bars in Scotland.
"This agreement, this solemn undertaking, this reassurance for the families of the dead has been disregarded by the justice secretary and others, and our words will never mean as much again," he added. "We Scots have been trusted the world over, our justice system has been admired for centuries, but in one announcement, this reputation has been damaged, tarnished for years to come."
Could Lockerbie decision hurt the SNP?
Despite losing today's vote by 73 votes to 50, which is not a full no-confidence motion, the SNP has appeared at ease with the result.
Perhaps much more worrying for the party, which will tomorrow announce a bill for a full referendum on outright Scottish independence, is the reaction of voters to the Megrahi release.
A survey of more than 1,000 Scots last week by the polling firm ICM showed a clear majority disagreed with the decision, with 60 percent opposed and just 32 percent in favor.
A separate poll earlier in the week by YouGov also suggested that the Megrahi decision may have impacted the SNP's standing, with support for independence at a low of 28 percent.
Brown defends Scotland's decision
Hours earlier, Mr. Brown said that he "respected" the decision of Scotland's justice minister, Kenny MacAskill, and denied that the worst mass murderer in British history had been allowed to return to Libya as part of efforts by Britain to secure oil and gas rights in Libya.
"On our part there was no conspiracy, no cover-up, no double dealing, no deal on oil, no attempt to influence Scottish ministers, no private assurances by me to Colonel Gaddafi," he said during a speech in Birmingham which was originally scheduled to be about jobs.
But Brown's former home secretary, Jacqui Smith, broke ranks to criticize the decision, telling the BBC: "It does not feel right to me that someone who has been convicted for an extremely serious offence be able to return, in a way in which his victims were not able to, back to Libya."
"Of course we have to be compassionate with people who are in prison and coming to the end of their, lives but I am not sure I would have made the same decision," said Ms. Smith.
Brown's rejection of a conspiracy behind Megrahi's release came after the release by the Scottish nationalists of documents showing that the British government had told Tripoli that Brown did not want to see the bomber die in prison.
Has this hurt the 'special relationship' between the US and Britain?
Check out our blog on how British Foreign Minister David Miliband's confirmation that the British government did not want Megrahi to die in prison rankles across the Atlantic.

Joaquín Almunia
Vice President of the European Commission responsible for Competition Policy
Statement of VP Almunia on the Google antitrust investigation
Press room
Brussels, 21 May 2012
In November 2010, the Commission launched an antitrust investigation into allegations that Google had abused a dominant market position. This followed a number of complaints. We have looked at those complaints and at others we received since the opening. And we have conducted a large-scale market investigation. Today I want to update you on the state of play of this on-going case.
But before I tell you more about the preliminary conclusions I have reached, let me first stress one important point. I believe that these fast-moving markets would particularly benefit from a quick resolution of the competition issues identified. Restoring competition swiftly to the benefit of users at an early stage is always preferable to lengthy proceedings, although these sometimes become indispensable to competition enforcement.
In this case, Google Inc. has repeatedly expressed to me its willingness to discuss any concerns that the Commission might have without having to engage in adversarial proceedings. This is why I am today giving Google an opportunity to offer remedies to address the concerns we have already identified.
Our investigation has led us to identify four concerns where Google business practices may be considered as abuses of dominance.
First, in its general search results on the web, Google displays links to its own vertical search services. Vertical search services are specialised search engines which focus on specific topics, such as for example restaurants, news or products. Alongside its general search service, Google also operates several vertical search services of this kind in competition with other players.
In its general search results, Google displays links to its own vertical search services differently than it does for links to competitors. We are concerned that this may result in preferential treatment compared to those of competing services, which may be hurt as a consequence.
Our second concern relates to the way Google copies content from competing vertical search services and uses it in its own offerings. Google may be copying original material from the websites of its competitors such as user reviews and using that material on its own sites without their prior authorisation. In this way they are appropriating the benefits of the investments of competitors. We are worried that this could reduce competitors' incentives to invest in the creation of original content for the benefit of internet users. This practice may impact for instance travel sites or sites providing restaurant guides.
Our third concern relates to agreements between Google and partners on the websites of which Google delivers search advertisements. Search advertisements are advertisements that are displayed alongside search results when a user types a query in a website's search box. The agreements result in de facto exclusivity requiring them to obtain all or most of their requirements of search advertisements from Google, thus shutting out competing providers of search advertising intermediation services. This potentially impacts advertising services purchased for example by online stores, online magazines or broadcasters.
Our fourth concern relates to restrictions that Google puts to the portability of online search advertising campaigns from its platform AdWords to the platforms of competitors. AdWords is Google's auction-based advertising platform on which advertisers can bid for the placement of search ads on search result pages provided by Google. We are concerned that Google imposes contractual restrictions on software developers which prevent them from offering tools that allow the seamless transfer of search advertising campaigns across AdWords and other platforms for search advertising.
I have just sent a letter to Eric Schmidt setting out these four points. In this letter, I offer Google the possibility to come up in a matter of weeks with first proposals of remedies to address each of these points.
If Google comes up with an outline of remedies which are capable of addressing our concerns, I will instruct my staff to initiate the discussions in order to finalise a remedies package. This would allow to solve our concerns by means of a commitment decision – pursuant to Article 9 of the EU Antitrust Regulation - instead of having to pursue formal proceedings with a Statement of objections and to adopt a decision imposing fines and remedies.
This type of process was followed in numerous instances in recent years, for instance in several energy cases (such as the EON electricity case in 2008 and the EON gas case in 2010) or more recently in the IBM case (2011).
Complainants and interested third parties will be duly associated to that process. Any final proposal by Google will be market-tested before it is made legally binding by the Commission.
Should this process fail to deliver a satisfactory set of remedies, the on-going formal proceedings will of course continue, including the possible sending of a Statement of Objections.
I hope that Google seizes this opportunity to swiftly resolve our concerns, for the benefit of competition and innovation in the sector.
This process is without prejudice to the continued investigation of other issues that have been raised with the Commission.

SHSU's Online Programs Receive National Rankings
Jan. 9, 2014
SHSU Media Contact: Julia May
Story By: Elliott Cochran
For the third consecutive year, Sam Houston State University has earned national recognition in U.S. News & World Report's annual rankings of online education programs.
Of the four programs SHSU submitted for review in the 2014 report, three of SHSU's online programs received a ranking in the top 20 percent in the nation and one program garnered a national ranking in the top 10.
The overall rankings placed SHSU No. 7 among "Best Online Graduate Computer Information Technology Programs" and No. 1 in the "Student Engagement" indicator for the category.
SHSU also received national ranking as No. 20 among "Best Online Graduate Education Programs," No. 41 among "Best Online Bachelor's Programs," and No. 43 among "Best Online Graduate Business Programs."
The rankings effectively placed SHSU in the top 10 percent in "Best Online Graduate Education Programs," top 19 percent in "Best Online Graduate Business Programs," and top 15 percent in "Best Online Bachelor's Programs."
"SHSU Online is fortunate to work with our esteemed faculty, and we are dedicated to providing students with quality and convenient online learning options," said Bill Angrove, associate vice president for distance learning.
"We view the results from the 2014 U.S. News & World Report rankings as evidence that we are succeeding in our goals, and we will continue to work hard to further improve our services and assistance to students."
In "Student Services and Technology," an indicator used to determine schools' overall rankings, SHSU ranked as high as No. 4, and no lower than No. 25, among all schools.
U.S. News & World Report rates the incorporation of "Student Services and Technology" indicator through the use of both diverse online learning technologies that allow greater flexibility for students to take classes and labs from a distance and a strong support structure providing learning assistance, career guidance, and financial aid resources comparable to campus-based programs.
SHSU Online's service plays a key role in the university's placement regarding the "Student Services and Technology" indicator by providing student support and highly accessible technologies and services and strong support to its students, according to Angrove.
Moreover, in "Student Engagement," the primary indicator encompassing 30 percent of the school's score, in addition to SHSU's No. 1 national ranking in "Best Online Graduate Computer Information Technology Programs," the university earned a No. 21 national ranking in "Best Online Graduate Education Programs" and No. 28 national ranking in "Best Online Graduate Business Programs."
U.S. News & World Report rates the "Student Engagement" indicator as programs that promote quality participation in courses and allow students opportunities to both readily interact with their instructors and fellow classmates similarly to a campus-based setting and to complete their degrees in a reasonable amount of time.
In addition to three online undergraduate degree programs, SHSU offers 24 graduate degree programs, including one doctoral program and one special program for members of the U.S. military, as well as 22 online certificate programs.

Boston University suspended a fraternity Monday for hosting an off-campus house party last weekend where a student who later died was found unconscious.
About 46 members of Sigma Alpha Mu attended the party on Wadsworth Street in Allston Friday night, where Anthony Barksdale II, a 19-year-old engineering student from New Hampshire, was found unconscious about midnight.
Barksdale was pronounced dead about three hours after being rushed to the hospital.
Officials say the cause of his death has not been determined.
University administrators said they have learned from officials with the national fraternity that the party involved underage drinking and that one student left "severely intoxicated." Kenneth Elmore, the dean of students, said the party was evidently thrown to welcome six new members into the fraternity, including Barksdale.
"We believe the party was a 'meet-and-greet' type of function," Elmore said. The national chapter has also suspended the fraternity, administrators said.
Elmore, who described the student's death as an "unimaginable tragedy," said he did not know details about the party, whether initiation rituals were involved, or how long Barksdale was there. Barksdale lived in a dorm on campus.
Administrators will interview students as part of an independent investigation into Barksdale's death.
"We still don't know the circumstances," said Colin Riley, a university spokesman.
The student's death marks the latest in a series of troubling incidents involving Greek organizations, including an alleged hazing last spring that led to criminal charges.
Elmore said administrators have had frequent conversations with fraternity leaders, including those at Sigma Alpha Mu, about the dangers of excessive drinking. The university has instituted training programs that help students recognize when peers may be in danger, he added.
"We have been pushing hard on this conversation on alcohol abuse throughout the year," he said. "That's why it is so disappointing."
Law enforcement investigators are awaiting toxicology results to determine whether drugs or alcohol played a role in Barksdale's death. A preliminary autopsy conducted Monday found no signs of physical violence, according to the Suffolk district attorney's office, which is investigating.
Barksdale, a freshman, graduated from Souhegan High School in Amherst, N.H., last year, where he earned awards in basketball and academics. Dick Miller, the school's athletic director, said those who knew Barksdale are devastated.
In an e-mail sent Saturday, BU president Robert Brown wrote that "the thoughts and prayers of all of us go out to the family and friends who are experiencing this heartbreaking loss."
"As of this writing, we do not know what led to Anthony's untimely death," he wrote. "University officials responsible for public safety will work with Boston public officials to understand what may have led to this terrible loss."
The suspension marks another sanction against university fraternities, which have come under scrutiny for alleged hazing over the past year. In October, the university suspended Sigma Chi fraternity while it investigated allegations that members participated in hazing, the third time in eight months that students in Greek organizations faced such allegations.
Last spring, the university suspended the BU chapter of Sigma Delta Tau after an incident where underage females were reportedly forced or encouraged to drink. In April, more than a dozen members of the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity were accused of covering five victims in honey, hot sauce, coffee grounds, and fish sauce.
"All five were shivering and had horrified and fearful looks on their faces,'' police officers wrote in a report.
When the students were asked if they were OK, one shook his head no. Police later saw that the students had welts on their backs.
Most charges in that case were reduced or dropped.

As Republicans stubbornly refuse to raise taxes and the sequester grips Washington, former President Bill Clinton said Republicans need to openly state how their proposals, specifically tax cuts, would realistically work for the benefit of the American economy.
In an interview for CNBC Meets, the 42nd president said the crucial issue in politics is always how. "Whatever you decide to do and however much money you have or don't, how do you propose to do it?" the president told CNBC's Tania Bryer. "Suppose you're a Republican. You think the only important thing to do is to cut taxes. Well, not all tax cuts are equal and there's a lot of evidence about what works and what doesn't."
He said Republicans need to propose how exactly their belief in continuing tax cuts will aid the American recovery. Ever since the Republicans took control of the House in January 2011 following their significant victories in the Midterms, Washington has frequently been in deadlock during successive budget talks.
This year, the Obama administration and the Republican-controlled Congress have, once again, reached a budget stalemate that has led to the so-called sequester, a series of major spending cuts which imposes savings of $85 billion in 2013 alone.
With many Democrats wanting the Republicans to finally let go of the tax cuts introduced under George W Bush in 2001 and extended by President Obama at the end of 2010, Clinton argued that tax cuts do not affect people equally - a hallmark of his administration.
(Read More: Bill Clinton: We Could Have Saved 300,000 Lives in Rwanda)
House budget committee chairman Paul Ryan's latest budget proposals called for a lowering of income taxes.
The comments are in line with Clinton's interview with CNBC's Maria Bartiromo in June last year when he said Obama should extend the Bush tax cuts temporarily and wait to negotiate a proper solution after the November election. That time is now.
When asked what his greatest accomplishment as president was, Clinton responded: "We produced a prosperity that was broadly shared,something that hadn't happened before or since. A hundred times as many people moved out of poverty in my eight years as president as in the previous twelve years, including president Reagan's eight years." Clinton stressed that incomes rose among the poorest as well as the richest in more or less the same percentages during his administration, whereas during the Reagan and Bush years, the richest Americans have benefited the most.
Clinton continued that his administration proved government could have a positive role in American society, a notion that has been increasingly attacked by Republicans since the onset of the financial crisis.
The full interview with President Bill Clinton can be seen on CNBC Meets tonight.

CBS will add the new comedy "¡ROB!" to its Thursday night line-up at midseason, the network announced Monday.
But what's with the strange punctuation, you ask? Rob Schneider stars as a lifelong bachelor who just married into a tight-knit Mexican-American family—and that's how add an excitement to a TV show title in Spanish. (It's not working, CBS. ¡I am not excited by this announcement!)
"¡ROB!" premieres Jan. 12 and also stars Cheech Marin, Claudia Bassols, Diana Maria Riva, Eugenio Derbez and Lupe Ontiveros.
"¡ROB!" fills the spot where the much-moved-but-unkillable "Rules of Engagement" resided. CBS says "Rules" will return later in the season.
The reality series "Undercover Boss" returns to Sundays for its third season beginning Jan. 15. "The Amazing Race" will be back for yet another season at some point, but the network did not give a date.
CBS Thursday, effective Jan. 12
7 p.m.: "The Big Bang Theory"
7:30 p.m.: "¡ROB!" (series premiere)
8 p.m.: "Perons of Interest"
9 p.m. "The Mentalist"
CBS Sunday, effective Jan. 15
6 p.m.: "60 Minutes"
7 p.m.: "Undercover Boss" (Season 3 premiere)

Storm that spawned tornadoes in South causes wild, weird weather in New England
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) � With a storm front passing through, northern New England has experienced wacky weather with fog, heavy rain, record warmth, ice jams and gusts topping 70 mph. And it'll all be capped with a return to cooler weather.
Across the region, heavy wind gusts on Thursday knocked out electricity for more than 70,000 homes and businesses, mostly in Maine, while warm temperatures and heavy rainfall caused ice jams on several rivers, threatening communities including Montpelier, Vt., with flash flooding.
Several ski areas shut down because of rain, or strong winds, or both.
In Maine, the wind gusted to 63 mph in Bath, ripping part of the roof off the Maine Maritime Museum. Offshore, it hit 60 mph at New Hampshire's Isles of Shoals and 74 mph at Maine's Matinicus Rock.

Budget cuts are temporarily keeping the grass in the medians of the county-owned Bluffton and Buckwalter parkways from being cut.
A landscape maintenance company was let go in a cost-savings move on May 12, and county officials are working out details and getting the equipment needed for an in-house takeover, county officials said Wednesday.
The county had a one-year, $141,000 maintenance contract with Brickman Group, of Hilton Head Island, that expired Aug. 21, 2010. After that, until May 12, the county employed Brickman on a month-to-month basis, said Eddie Bellamy, Public Works director.
County Administrator Gary Kubic said the change under way is one of many the county must look at as its revenue shrinks from declining property values and the constricted economy.
He said the revenue "decline is so severe that we will be making decisions regarding public safety. Landscaping is a nice thing to have, but it doesn't rise to the priority level of public safety. That's what the choices are coming down to."
Kubic said the county's tax revenue slide is projected to get worse. "We started a year ago at $104 million in the general fund; we're going to end this year somewhere around $96 million," he said. "We're projecting by 2014, post-reassessment, there's a good possibility the general fund could fall as low as $88 million."
The value of the tax rate mill will drop when reassessment lowers property values, making revenue fall even more unless the tax rate goes up.
Each mill today raises $1.7 million. By 2014, it's projected 1 mill will generate $1.5 million. That $200,000 drop, multiplied by the county's tax rate of about 40 mills, would come to an $8 million loss, Kubic said.
"Grass cutting is important, but it is just an indicator of what is taking place. And when you have constricted economy, choices are made ….
"Is grass cutting more important than a library? Is a library more important than an ambulance? Is an ambulance more important than full-service law enforcement from the sheriff's department? These are decisions we didn't have to make (previously) because we had growth and appreciation of property value …"
Kubic also is directing a look at changing to low-maintenance landscaping.
"Decisions were made to plant grass in the medians because it was cheaper, so much of the money was dedicated to the asphalt and not to the landscape," he said.
"I want to bring in a team that maybe in phases can extend low lying vegetation, so I can replace the grass with the creeper crawler stuff."
Kubic said he sent two arborists in the planning department to the Bluffton Parkway, and pink markers on trees are signs they were there.
"What we're doing is we're evaluating the vegetation because a lot of it is diseased. A lot of it has not been fertilized. A lot of pieces need to be replaced. …
"What people have to do is be patient until I can gear up and get started. We have a plan …," he said.
All of Buckwalter Parkway is within Bluffton town limits. Bluffton Parkway is within town limits from S.C. 170 to just west of the roundabout where it intersects Bluffton Road (S.C. 46). From there to Burnt Church Road, it is in the unincorporated county jurisdiction.
"Bluffton and Buckwalter parkway are both county roads; they're county maintained roads, and the level of maintenance we're trying to provide on those two roads is basically what's called municipal-level maintenance. That is the only county roads, anywhere in the county, that we have tried to provide that level of maintenance," Bellamy said.
"We canceled the (maintenance) contract, and as I understand it we canceled because of budgetary considerations," he said.
Now, the maintenance is to be handled by facilities management department's grounds keeping division, which cares for county parks, he said.
Details on the plan were not immediately available. Robert McFee, engineering and infrastructure director over both divisions, was out of the office and could not be reached for comment Wednesday afternoon.
But Bluffton Town Manager Anthony Barrett said the town was told mowing will resume on Friday.
"We were sent notice of the contract cancelation in the spring. As the county worked through their budget, we were told that the maintenance of the medians would be assumed by county forces.
"The county Director of Facilities Management Mark Roseneau has been in touch with our Facilities Director Tammy Malone on a number of occasions about the procurement of equipment and manpower. Late today, Ms. Malone reported to me that Mr. Roseneau had contacted her and told her county crews will begin mowing operations on the parkways on Friday, July 1," Barrett said by email Wednesday.
Barrett said the town has received complaints about poor maintenance, "and I have requested a schedule and level of service from County Administrator Kubic. Until notified differently, the town government assumes the county will maintain the medians," Barrett said.
He added the rights of way were dedicated to the county, and, "We do not maintain other jurisdictions right of ways."
Barrett said the town has had no problems with state Department of Transportation maintenance of state roads in town limits.
Malone said town officials are referring complainers to the county. "Most people don't really care who's in charge. They just want it cut," she said.
Dry weather had slowed growth, but "with the thundershowers we've had the last couple of days, the grass has really taken off," she said.
Bellamy said he administered the Brickman Group maintenance contract, and "They were doing a hell of a good job."
In addition to maintaining the medians' vegetation, Brickman was responsible for mowing the area between the road and multiuse pathways, and from the pathways to the nearest ditch, Bellamy said.
Kubic said that particularly on Bluffton Parkway, maintenance using mechanical equipment is tricky because "there are areas where the median is very narrow and there are a lot of trees."
"… we bid it out and we were very satisfied, and I am very particular about manicuring what I consider to be the gateways that have a lot of travelers ….
"I live here and want to be proud of the community," Kubic said. "It's an economic development incentive, as well. If we're bragging about how this place is exceptional, you don't want it to look terrible; you want it to look pristine. But that takes money."
Since the contractor had to be let go to save money, the county is ordering new equipment and developing an in-house program that will include less frequent mowing than with the private contractor, Kubic said.
For now, "We just don't have the right kind of equipment to do it quickly and efficiently," he said.
"I just wrote an email to (County Council Chairman) Weston Newton where I say what we need to do is consider this an opportunity to look at a comprehensive plan for maintenance of our gateways," Kubic said. "And because some of the roads are owned by the state, some of the roads are owned by the county, some of the roads go through municipalities and some of the roads have major retailers on them., what we want to do is see if we can devise a way to get more people involved and raise the money to do the job …."
