From the UK's Guardian this morning:
Christopher Monckton berates a group of young activists for interrupting a meeting of climate sceptics in Copenhagen, calling them 'Nazis' and 'Hitler Youth'
Christopher Monckton berates a group of young activists for interrupting a meeting of climate sceptics in Copenhagen, calling them 'Nazis' and 'Hitler Youth'
When Christopher Monckton, the hereditary third Viscount Monckton of Brenchley, attended an Americans for Prosperity meeting in Copenhagen on Wednesday night that was interrupted by chanting youth delegates, he was reportedly furious. But no one expected him to go back and berate them.
Yesterday he ambushed a small group of students from the non-profit SustainUS inside the Bella centre. One of them texted her friends for help. Several arrived, including Ben Wessel, a 20-year-old activist from Middlebury College, Vermont.
Monckton then repeatedly called them "Nazis" and "Hitler Youth". When Wessel told him that his family were Jewish, Monckton carried on.
"I was so surprised," Wessel said today. "I hoped to have a more civil conversation with the man. It's fine that we have differences, but it's not okay to pull out such hateful language."
Check out the full article here: Viscount Monckton calls young climate activists 'Hitler Youth'
took guts to face up to Hitlers brownshirts
I don't think these state sponsored eco nuts are as dangerous, not evil, just wrong.
Real Nazis hate climate science!
Ironically enough, Britain's nearest thing to a genuine Nazi politician is in Copenhagen at this very moment - Nick Griffin of the British National Party. And strangely - or not so strangely - his views on climate science exactly coincide with those of Lord Monckton ('fraudulent ststistics', climate change 'being used to impose an anti-human utopia', etc.).
Nick Griffin also has a crimiinal conviction for inciting race hatred and is on record as saying "I am well aware that the orthodox opinion is that six million Jews were gassed and cremated and turned into lampshades. Orthodox opinion also once held that the world is flat."
BNP websites are enthusiastically quoting Monckton - see http://thegreenarrow.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=vidclip&action=display&thread=8730&page=1
Copenhagen is really bringing the creepy-crawlies out of the woodwork, and it's a truly ugly spectacle.

hahahaha desmog hates monckton
Dr. Monckton is riding high right now my friends. Dr. Monckton was awarded the Nobel Laureate for finding an error in the 2001 IPCC report and the desmoggers cried. Dr. Monckton, still tippin' with the paint drippin'!
Are you nutts?
Please find, ande cite, an authoratative source for that information.

Only in the potty peer's

It's kind of like his mythical membership in the House of Lords.
False claim of Nobel Laureate by Christopher Monckton
Re: "Dr. Monckton was awarded the Nobel Laureate for finding an error in the 2001 IPCC report"
This is funny. Monckton or his supporters think he got a Nobel.
There's no mention of this Nobel on Wikipedia page:
There's no mention of Chris Monckton at the Nobel website.
By all means, provide proof of this Nobel!! Ha ha! He can't prove his "Nobel" and he sure can't prove his outlandish claims on global warming!

"swivel-eyed maniac"
Well, Moncton hasn't joined the BNP which seems his natural habitat. He has just announced that he is joining the UK Independence Party, a party described by Monbiot as "the last refuge of a marvellous collection of cranks and fabulists".
Monbiot also quoted a description of Moncton by a scribe of the (conservative and anti-environmental) British weekly The Spectator: "swivel-eyed maniac". Bull's eye.
I am so glad I did not vote for any of their foot-soldiers this year.
Now that you mention it . . .
I have noticed a striking resemblence to the late, great Marty Feldman …
I am also beginning to think that if we just stand back and give him room, this loose cannon might just roll right off the deck and into the (ever-rising) sea! As a friend said lately, this guy has shot himself in the foot so many times it's amazing he can stand at all. Fern
Weaver solved the problem
I am impressed by McIntyre, he jokes that Professor Weaver figured there was a teleconnection between the KGB and oil companies, and stole his computer. The actual heist was done by none other than Macavity of CATS fame:
Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
He's broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity …

Lord Monckton
certainly diminishes himself in my eyes by continuing on this tactic, but their is no traction or lasting damage as the analogy fits. Denying opposing parties basic democratic rights by shouting them down during meetings, going around calling people "deniers" and trying to force the AGW opinion down everyones throats without debate is certainly not democratic. Combines with the enormous scientific deception Monckton has every grounds to make this comparison but he should refrain from doing so.
I want to see the Lord Monckton who uses Reason and Logic to bludgen his opponents, not bring hiself down to their level by hurling insults. The AGW is on the ropes and its weak points are a bogus scientific consensus, junk science and no evidence of warming. Time for monkcton to stop attacking the people and to start hitting the issue again. That is his strong suit. Their is no need for climate skeptics to reduce themselves to the religious zealots who shout "denier".

Good Luck
"I want to see the Lord Monckton who uses Reason and Logic to bludgen his opponents."
Let us know when you see him.
Americans for Prosperity use same tactics
I'm not a big fan, personally, of shouting people down and interrupting meetings. But I make an exception in this case as the exact same tactic has been promoted by the group hosting the meeting that was interrupted.
Americans for Prosperity is funded by fossil fuel companies and others and promoted harassment, interruption and heckling at Congressional Town Hall meetings in the US in fall, 2009.
Americans For Prosperity Is "Deeply Involved" In Protests. As reported by the Boston Globe, "Conservative activist groups are deeply involved. A leading example is Americans for Prosperity, whose sister foundation is chaired by David H. Koch - a billionaire whose family made a fortune in oil production and whom Forbes magazine in March ranked as the world's 19th richest person - and which also coordinated the 'tea parties' in April protesting Obama's 'irresponsible' economic policies. The groups are running millions of dollars of television ads and have sent a bus across America to stir up sentiment against revamping healthcare. Its website lists town hall meetings planned by Democratic lawmakers to help activists find a venue for protest."
- Boston Globe
There was a more detailed account of AFP distributing a guide to disrupting Town Hall meetings.
The aristocrat Monckton should also criticize Americans for Prosperity or he should STFU.
And his allegations are false.
Another example of AFP using this tactic
'Last night, Rep. Steve Kagen (D-WI) and Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-OH) were apparently the latest victims of this strategy. Kagen, whose town hall was targeted by the Wisconsin chapter of Americans for Prosperity, was "repeatedly disrupted" by "incomprehensible" shrieks and shouts from angry conservatives. '

Sadly yes
Sadly, it has been effective for the teabaggers, to some extent. The Republican Party is really catering to them. The health care bill has been compromised and climate action has been delayed. Big business has been served.
Maybe next time the kids should hold up signs showing the Viscount's lies. Surround him with these signs.
What do you suggest they do?
RickJames replied on Permalink
group thuggery
I suggest that everyone be allowed to have their meeting without fear of being shut down by protest. It won't happen because of the self righteous groups out there who place themselves above everyone else.
The world won't change though. Group thuggery is indeed effective.

So, let me get this straight, a reporter is marched off by armed guards for asking a difficult question in a Pro AGW press conference and yet a gang of moronic chanting "climate activists" (neo-Nazi Thugs) can invade a private meeting and disrupt it and nobody does anything to get rid of them? This is a very very scary world we are inhabiting.
RickJames replied on Permalink
critical mass
that's a good point. Monckton has been an easy target from desmog, but there is more to the story.
We've seen this before. You can't ask questions as a single dissenting reporter in a news conference but you can shut down dialogue completely as a protest group. Thuggery works.
nothing especially just about it. It reminds me of the critical mass bike rides. If you get enough thugs on bikes, you can shut down the streets for hours with no consequence.

When reporters turn rogue
Schneider was right to stop answering their questions as it is well known that 'Climatgate' has turned into 'Vapourgate' - nothing for the deniers to grasp firmly. Although that has not stopped Monckton dissembling about Trenberth's statements in private - a direct and mischievous reference to the leaked emails. Monckton should be slapped with a libel suite on that alone, he cannot be that stupid not to know that the real meaning of Trenberth's 'decline' allusion has been made clear and is no 'smoking gun'.
You may not know that Schnieder was once mischievously misquoted by another 'reporter' a few years back and realised how he would likely be mistreated once again.
Besides this was a book launch and not an open session for any questions.
As for 'Not Evil - Just Wrong' - should have a similar classification as 'Expelled', I have a hunch that you may be familiar with that baloney, i.e. taken with a large pinch of salt (or reality).
the stink of fraud is starting to waft to the White House
Ultimately they are responsible for the running of government agencies. When the GISS data base is fraudulently "adjusted" to create an illusion of "we are in the ten warmest years", then the White House is on the hook.

You're slow on the uptake:
- the emails were stolen
- the emails were selectively released
- deniers don't know what was withheld.
- deniers don't have the full picture.
- deniers insist this is the end of the global warming debate
OTOH, deniers tell us to reject thousands of scientists around the world who have reached the same conclusion: that human-induced global warming is happening.
Oh, and the deniers have nothing critic to say whatsoever about the actual thievery that took place. They apparently no problem with larceny - by their side.

The Precautionary Principle Run Amock
"For starters, very few, if any, scientists contend that the beginning of the Industrial Revolution sparked a nearly instantaneous rise in temperatures. The rise in temperatures that most of the CRU scientists and most mainstream scientists consider to be non-normal is the one that began in 1975 and ended in 1998.
This is an important point, because although we did in fact start warming in approximately the year 1800, meaningful rises in co2 would not occur for nearly a century and a half. Why did we begin warming in 1800? One answer is that it was time for the pendulum to swing back toward warm after the 550-year period known as the Little Ice Age. Internal dynamics and possibly solar variability likely brought our ocean-atmosphere system both into and out of the LIA.
The arguments about what falls within "normal," temperature-wise and climate-wise, will continue for some time, largely because of reasonable disputes concerning tree-ring analysis. The tree-ring analysis that Michael Mann, Keith Briffa, Goddard Institute for Space Studies, and the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia all depend on to show the Modern Warm Period as troublingly pronounced is fraught with issues. Tree rings simply cannot be read with the omniscience they would require to provide a true record of temperature. Why not? Because individual trees growth is affected by too many variables: changing soil composition, changing numbers, of competitor trees in a stand, changing precipitation, changing levels of cloud, nearby volcanic eruptions (especially pertinent in Siberia from which many of the most significant tree-ring studies are drawn). This is only a partial list!"

Be Very Cautious of the Precautionary Principle
RickJames replied on Permalink
Acting on agw concerns "just in case" makes sense to me on one condition. That is: that precaution moves us to fully develop advanced nuclear in India, China and all stable countries that have limited nuclear facilities now.
If burning fossil fuels must be arrested, we must go to nuclear in a very big way along with added in renewables like solar baseload and wind and wave.
If we aren't willing to fully develop advanced nuclear in stable countries where some nuclear exists now, then we aren't serious about climate. If that is the case it's all just a power grab and should be cut off at the knees.

Precautionary Principle
A particularly apt juxtaposition, posting a precautionary principle piece on a Monckton thread. Monckton himself being known well known for his truly visionary application of the precautionary principle;
"…. there is only one way to stop AIDS. That is to screen the entire population regularly and to quarantine all carriers of the disease for life. Every member of the population should be blood-tested every month … all those found to be infected with the virus, even if only as carriers, should be isolated compulsorily, immediately, and permanently.

Siberian tree data is not
Siberian tree data is not scientifically sound and I can show this. I'll work from JR's excellent list and then add one more.
Changing soil composition, hello haven't you guys herd of plate teutonics? Periodically all the old soil gets buried under the ocean.
Changing numbers of competitor trees, again, obvious, lumberjacks come in and cut down the old trees.
Changing precipitation, I disagree with this one you can tell if it is raining because the trees are wet.
Changing levels of cloud, again true how can you tell if it is cloudy by looking at a tree?
Nearby volcanic eruptions, Siberia is in the frozen north which is a hellish place of fire and brimstone.
But most importantly most of the trees in siberia have been dead for a century. During the October resolution a communist B52 crashed and the atom bomb it was carrying exploded killing all the trees. http://astro.wsu.edu/worthey/astro/html/im-meteor/tunguska.html This happened at Tunguska and nearly destroyed NY and Washington.
They just keep making stuff up

As wrong as Monckton is, he still manages to control the debate
As much as I hate to say it, the youth in this video do not come out on top. Monckton manages to totally control the interaction. Climate activists desperately need to practice debating people like this. Too often they come across as poorly informed, overly emotional and reactive.
There is an easy answer to Monckton's claim that temperatures have declined in the last 15 years. Why didn't they immediately counter with hard numbers about GHG levels in the atmosphere? Even a simple statement about how very short-term cooling is not evidence against long-term warming would have sufficed to take some of the wind out of his argument.
If there is one thing I agree with Monckton on, shouting down a meeting is not the best tactic. They would have been better off staging a silent stand-in holding simple, legible signs which provide hard evidence of GHG levels, long-term warming, the true cost of action (1-3% of global GDP vs the 5% we just spent to bail out the banking industry), who funds people like Monckton and Lomborg, etc.
Remember, this is about winning over the people watching these videos, not converting Monckton.
Perhaps somebody could make an edit of this video with overlays of the real facts as Monckton spouts off? It would help viewers discern.

What's your definition of "long-term" and "short-term"? Years please. How many more years of cooling would it take then to be considered significant long term?
Ashley Webster replied on Permalink
How many more years...
I think a better question would be: how many more years of worldwide glacier retreat will it take before you reconsider your "skepticism"?
JR Wakefield replied on Permalink
glacier retreat will it take before you reconsider your "skeptic
I would have to compare it to the geological record and see if the current retreating of the 50 measured glaciers (out of 3000) are indeed melting beyond normal variation. But it seems no one here can show us they are melting beyond normal variation.
You still did not answer the question.
Oh, and BTW
Himalayan glaciers melting deadline 'a mistake'
Seems the IPCC doesn't always get its information from peer reviewed papers.
I would have to compare it to the geological record and see...
Of course glacier and polar ice is being lost beyond normal variation because no other factors other than the current isotopically distinct elevated CO2 levels can account for the temperature rises, rises which are around 4 degree C above normal at polar latitudes.
If you bothered to study sources cited you would learn this.
'Himalayan glaciers melting deadline 'a mistake'
Ah! Another straw you grasp.
Try looking at this page for other views on this:
and at one of the replicated links
you will find this:
Himalayan Blunder: The Perils Of
Denying Glacier Melting
'Neverthless, the simple reason why there is no "conclusive evidence" to show that the Himalayan glaciers are melting is because India had repeatedly turned down requests from the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), for an exhaustive study of the Himalayan glaciers
The Indian government, which treats glacier studies only for defence purposes, did not see any major threat from the melting of glaciers and the formation of the newly created lakes. Perhaps India is waiting for another disaster to strike before it acknowledges the threat. Jairam Ramesh should realise that deflecting attention from the urgent need to do something more meaningful for protecting the Himalayan glaciers will be disastrous for the country's environment and food security.
I draw your attention to a Himalayan disaster in waiting. This is based on a detailed report prepared by ICIMOD sometimes back.
It happened on Aug 4, 1985. Dig Tsho glacial lake, situated close to the Mt Everest region at a height of 4,365 metres above sea level, suddenly burst. Within the next four hours, estimates show that nearly 8 million cubic metres of water had drained from the lake. The torrent moved forward rather slowly down-valley as a huge 'black' mass of water full of debris. The surge waters from what is called as 'Glacial Lake Outburst Floods' (GLOF), completely destroyed whatever came its way.
Within the next few hours, the GLOF had completely destroyed civil structures of Namche (Thame) Small Hydel Project (estimated cost of US $ 1.5 million), swept 14 bridges, long stretches of roads, trails, cultivated land and took a heavy toll of human and animal life.'
All these 'elephants' charging across the globe and you still don't get it.
Unless you do some more widespread reading, based upon honest and open-minded enquiry, there is little point in discussing with you further.
If you behaved like this during an accredited course you would soon find yourself looking for other options. Media Studies perhaps.

Have you actually read these papers?
Good for you for at least trying to use science to back up your position, but you grossly misinterpret these essays. I have now read them all except the last one and none actually back up your argument that there is "nothing happening with the glaciers that is beyond normal variation."
The first essay you cite (Chaujar, 2009) deals exclusively with dating the advance and retreat of the Himalayan glaciers. It says absolutely nothing about whether the current retreat is natural or human induced. To use this paper as evidence that glacial retreat is a natural process is reading more into it than the author is actually saying.
The second essay by Fowler and Archer (2006) is the one that makes me laugh the hardest and question if you have actually read it. Let me quote from it:
"High northern latitudes have been particularly affected, with reconstructions of mean surface temperature over the past two millennia suggesting that the late twentieth century warmth is unprecedented (Mann and Jones 2003) and attributed to the anthropogenic forcing of climate (Thorne et al. 2003)." … "However, there are suggestions that the western Himalaya region is showing a different response to global warming…"
This essay is basically agreeing that climate change is being caused by humans and pointing out that changes in temperature patterns are asymmetrical and differ from region to region.
The third essay by Kononov, Ananicheva and Willis (2005) is much like the first in that it attempts to reconstruct the growth and decline of the Polar Ural glacier without making any comment on whether the recent observed shrinkage is human or natural. Again, you read more into it that it actually says.
There is no doubt that the world has undergone warming and cooling periods but that alone does not prove that the current warming trend is natural. People die from natural causes all the time but you cannot then say that all deaths are natural. Your argument also fails to take into account the simple fact that greenhouse gases (which are proven to trap heat) are at levels unprecedented for at least 800,000 years.

Former TB hospital now attracts ghost hunters
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A Kentucky hospital that was once the last stop for thousands of tuberculosis patients is now a destination for ghost hunters who insist the massive building is haunted.
The Waverly Hills Sanatorium was home to thousands of sickly patients from the time it opened in the 1920s to its closing in 1961.
The building is full of creaky doors, decaying rooms and an underground tunnel that was used to haul away the dead.
Owner Charlie Mattingly says paranormal enthusiasts come from around the world to tour or even spend the night inside the drafty old building. He says many who visited report spooky encounters.
The Louisville site has been featured on several ghost- and Halloween-themed television shows and is well-known nationwide.

Is someone really suggesting that a QB capable of winning a SB HAS to be had at the top of the 1st, never the bottom or the middle?
No sir. I'm not saying a SB winner can't come from any part of the draft, etc. I'm saying Weeden isn't good enough win SB, by the time you have a team capable of helping him he'll be retired and living in Boca and there were plenty of options between Colt and Weeden that wouldn't have cost what Weeden cost. People act like choice was either Colt or Weeden and that's an effing lie.
Last time-
Team is more watchable
TRich is good back who will be more than that when healthy
Weeden wasn't worth #22 and TRich not worth trading 3 picks to move up a spot.
Keep deficit spending or doing stupid shit and it costs you. It doesn't cost you less just because the shit you had before was really shitty.
You guys are starting to remind me of Buckeye honks.
Could you elaborate on these other options from the offseason? Flynn? Kolb? If that's what you're referring to, then I'll take Weeds.
Shee-it, I've been asking him to do that since the draft.
And it's still pointless today to specify. You want better than Colt? Go down any roster, go through the draft with not only Luck, RG3, Tannehill, Weeden, Osweiler, Wilson, Cousins, et al. Go anywhere you want. Flynn woulda been better, Matt Moore woulda been better, guys like Mallet, McElroy, Carr, Alex Smith, Orton, Hanie, Clemens, etc.
All of them placeholders at worst, better than or no worse than Colt, none of them likely to cost anything close to 22 in the draft, some with potential. Free agents, trade opps, younger than or same age as Weeden.
All of whom would likely get you 3-5 wins just like Weeden will have at the end of the season.
Now, if you want to tell me that there was absolutely no one available other than Weeden at #22 I guess we'll have to part ways.
What's always conveniently forgotten is I'm fine with giving him next year because, as I also said, he needs it and he's earned it, but you're going to lose all credibility with me (which matters not, I understand) if you tell me Weeden at #22 was their only choice and that no one else out there gives you what that 29-yr old does.
Dime-a-dozen when we look back in ten years. Better than Colt though. Yee Haa!
Yet I'll be rooting for him hard on Sunday like everyone else.
Holy shit, that's your list? For one, post-Redskins trade, Luck & RGII were not options. Tsnnehill? Sweet Jesus. Kirk "Sparty" Cousins? Sure, better than Colt, but by how much? Osweiler? Brock Bleeping Osweiler? No, I'd rather take Colt (actually, I'd prefer waterboarding, but still). You're right on Wilson, but other than Carroll, who saw him as a starter? Caleb Hanie sucks at life. Kellen Clemens hasn't been relevant in 3-4 yrs. David Carr is a trainwwreck. McElroy can't jump Jesus Tebow for crap's sake. Tannehill beat out Moore. Fine on Flynn, but what's the point? Slightly better arm than Colt? Etc.

On Oct. 22, service members were introduced to the sport of indoor archery. Previous sessions have included sitting volleyball, low ropes course and judo.
Participants included members from the Mid-America Chapter of the Paralyzed Veterans of America, the Oklahoma City Veterans Affairs Medical Center, and the Warriors Transition Unit from Fort Sill in Lawton.
Service members involved with Adventure Therapy have a wide range of injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, back and knee injuries, and post-traumatic brain disorders.
"We are pleased to partner with these organizations in order to provide this much needed service," said Katrina Shaklee, Director of Sport Performance at the UCO Wellness Center. "These men and women have expressed a desire to go beyond ordinary types of rehabilitation therapy and we are hoping to fill that void and demonstrate that there are many opportunities awaiting our wounded warriors."
UCO Adventure Therapy started in September 2008 and was made possible by the U.S. Olympic Committee's Olympic Opportunity grant program. UCO received a $25,000 to create a community-based Paralympic program for injured service members.
UCO was one of 24 organizations that received the Olympic Opportunity grant.The U.S. Olympic Committee received 120 applications for the coveted grant.
"The U.S. Olympic Committee is proud to support community-based initiatives that help individuals with disabilities live healthy, active lives," said Charlie Huebner, U.S. Olympic Committee Chief of Paralympics. "We are so pleased that the Olympic Opportunity Fund will help The University of Central Oklahoma's Adventure Therapy program offer even more sports and physical activity opportunities to severely injured service members right in their own community."
UCO's Adventure Therapy has opened doors for injured Oklahoma service members. As an introduction to Paralympic sport, the goal is to raise interest in those who come to a session.
"The service members really started to get into it with the instructors on the techniques of the sports," said Elliot Blake, Coordinator for Sitting Volleyball at the UCO Wellness Center and organizer for Adventure Therapy. "Our participants are thankful for the opportunity to experience the Olympic and Paralympic sports, and some are curious on the level of effort necessary to become an 'elite' athlete."
The next Adventure Therapy session will introduce the participants to fencing. The session is tentatively scheduled for November 5 at Redlands Fencing in Oklahoma City. Other upcoming sessions include soccer on December 3 and rowing on December 17.
For more information on Adventure Therapy, contact Elliot Blake at (405) 974-3158.

Topic: Temporarily block acces to certain pages
Can anyone suggest a simple way of temporarily blocking access to a set of controllers within my application?
For example, I have a number of controllers in a sub directory foo if I wanted to temporarily divert access from these controllers could I do it using routes.rb?
How can I redirect all attempts to access controllers under foo (i.e. foo/bar) to home?
map.connect 'foo', :controller => 'home'
This works if I try and access http://server.com/foo but not if I try and access http://server.com/foo/bar.
Or this a better way of doing this without playing with routes.rb?

Tuesday, February 21, 2012 - Pictures by Badmintonphoto (archive)
The United States have qualified for the Thomas Cup and Uber Cup Finals in Wuhan, China from May 20-27, after winning the Pan-Am qualifiers on Sunday.
Five teams competed in the Uber Cup qualifiers with the teams playing each other once in a round robin format.
America and Canada entered Sunday's final match against each other with perfect records after beating Brazil, Barbados and Puerto Rico 5-0 respectively.
As such, their encounter was a final of sorts and the teams didn't disappoint with some great action on the courts before the United States carved out a narrow 3-2 victory to earn their ticket to China.
It was their strength in the doubles which gave the US the advantage as Eva Lee-Paula Lynn Obanana (above), and Jamie Subandhi-Rena Wang defeated Alex Bruce-Michelle Li 21-17, 19-21, 23-21, and Joycelyn Ko-Grace Gao 21-6, 21-8, respectively, as the Americans overcame a 2-1 deficit.
Earlier, Li (left), continued her brilliant singles form in the tournament when she defeated Rena Wang 21-19, 22-20, in the first singles to give Canada the lead.
Iris Wang made the score 1-1 when she defeated Ko 22-20, 21-14, before Christina Tsai overcame a first game loss to beat Subandhi 17-21, 21-15, 21-9, as Canada regained the lead.
That set the stage for a grandstand finish which ended in the American's favour.
Eight teams took part in the Thomas Cup and they were separated into two groups of four with the Americans and Guatemala reaching the final.
The Americans started the match determined to make up for their 3-2 loss to the same opponents in the group stage, but didn't get off to a good start in the opening singles.
Kevin Cordon (right), who made his name as a giant killer after defeating China's Chen Long in last year's World Championships, maintained his unbeaten run in the tournament when he defeated Sattawat Pongnairat 22-20, 21-14 to give Guatemala the perfect start.
The Americans, however, came roaring back and Howard Shu, Howard Bach-Pongnairat and Nicholas Jinadasa won the next three ties to give the United States the ticket to China.
Shu beat Rodolfo Ramirez 21-14, 21-14, in the second singles before Bach-Pongnairat gave the Americans the lead with a 21-12, 21-5, victory over Anibal Marroquin-Jonathan Solis.
Jinadasa then defeated Heymard Humblers 21-6, 19-21, 21-19, to clinch the tie.

Biggest question with BMW cars these days is can you live with run-flat tires?
Kent Christensen
One of the features that always attracted me to BMWs was their line of 6-cyl engines, because of the smoothness and velvety feel at the throttle.
I am no fan of small displacement 4-cyl engines. It doesn't matter to me, whether their hp and torque output is equal or greater of that of the 6es they replace.
4-cylinders feel rough, nervous and unrefined. In general, you have to operate them at a higher rpm to get the same performance.
If fuel mileage is very important to you, the turbo-charged, direct injection 4s are a good choice. But then again, why not go for a Toyota Prius?

We currently have a 128i with the inline 6. We test drove a 328i a few weeks ago with the inline 4. I thought the inline 4 was great engine. I could not feel any difference by the seat of my pants. Both cars continue to push you into your seat the more you press on the gas. We are considering moving to the 328, mainly for the change in MPG, but the reports coming out are that the combined MPG on the new 4 is 28 MPG and our card currently gets about 23, so don't know if we are willing to only gain 5 MPG for cost of a "new" car. There will have to some other factor, need more room etc. I wouldn't really worry about the engine. If we do buy one, it will be a service loaner from our local dealer. They sell them with about 2-3K on the clock for substantial savings. Add in the CPO warranty and you get a new car covered up to 100K miles and you don't take the initial depreciation hit. Our 1 was a loaner and it has been problem free.

The new turbo/4 is a premium only gas engine and has higher compression than past cars so may not like fudging over to 87 fuel. A Prius is not going to happen for me. I'm also looking @ the XC60 AWD Volvo
In the past I ran 87 in many BMW & Audi cars through 2008 models-the new BMW 4 cyl turbos are not the same situation.I talked to a couple of current techs & they said mid grade is the minimum to avoid problems with that engine. I never experienced a fuel related issue with the 6cyl cars on 87. OTOH, my 2003 R1150R runs great on 87. I am leaning now toward a wait to see what the near future,say next 2 years brings in cars.
The "ill effects" you'll experience if you do indeed use regular are reduced igntion advance and consequently reduced power and fuel economy. It's false economy for sure. The whole notion of trust the dealer and don't trust the manufacturer is completely and utterly foolish.

The M-I-L bought a 2013 328i last week. She came over on Saturday and I got my first look inside and under the hood.
I can't stand that video display erupting out of the top of the dash. That thing couldn't look more after-market/less integrated into the dash. Put a flat-screen computer monitor on the dash of your existing car and you'll get a feel for the size of the video display panel on the 3-series dash.
Then I peeked under the hood, expecting to see the famous BMW straight-six. I had no idea BMW cages were using a turbocharged four. I had to count spark plug leads to convince myself it wasn't a straight six.
I lost interest in further explorations after making that discovery. Twin-turbo V8 in the M3? Sure thing! Turbo straight six? No problem!
Turbo straight-four? No thanks.

How wide is the rolling width?Randy
jet, if you chain drive your rollers, aren't they going to both be turning cw/ccw thus defeating the purpose of a sheeter??? don't you want gear to gear?
I have the chain drive figured out for dough sheeter #1. I want to make DS #2 be a gear drive type. Can someone figure out how they keep the gears meshed together when they adjust the opening of the rollers ? I can't figure it out. Thanks.
i edited my original upload. re-check. i was in a rush off to work and goofed it
Wow Norma, those are perfect examples of implementations that are reasonably easy to repurpose as a dough sheeters.Good find.Dave
Thanks Norma for being kind enough to put those pictures up. The candy crimpers do have an adjustment for the thickness of the candy. But probably much less of an adjustment than we would all want for a dough sheeter ( to go from ball thickness down to cracker thin). I have no experience with that type of sprocket, but I will see how deep of a sprocket I can get in that style. Thanks again.
You know, I wonder if they have to be tied together. I think I would give it a go just driving the bottom one and let the top roll free.Randy

Duster has a little bit of everything: a Stearman Kaydet, a tenacious lady crop duster, World War II baddies, and Texas. But before you can order a copy, it needs some financial help.
The 215-page book takes place in the closing days of World War II. A widowed housewife-turned-crop-duster struggles to rescue her daughter from a band of war criminals who crash near her small Texas farm.
Duster's writers and artists have put the project on Kickstarter, which is an online funding platform for creative projects. In other words, they're looking for people who would like to back the book–become "early adopters"–and help fund the creation of the art that they want to see. The campaign launched June 18 and needs to raise $26,000. As of today, 277 backers had kicked in a total of $18,433. The campaign closes on July 24. You can download a free 40-page preview of the book, including the first part of the air battle between Joanna Kent in her Stearman Kaydet and a Luftwaffe Junkers Ju-290. If you choose to back the project, the creators are offering a number of incentives (not unlike the public television pledge drives) based on the amount you contribute.
Duster's writers are Micah Wright, creator of the Wildstorm Comics series Stormwatch: Team Achilles; and Jay Lender, writer and director of animated television shows SpongeBob SquarePants and Phineas and Ferb. The artists are Jok Coglitore (rough layouts) and Cristian Mallea (pencils and inks).
Since you don't come across a lady crop duster very often in fiction, I asked Wright whether he's a pilot. He's not, but the character of Joanna Kent is loosely based on his grandmother, who was a cotton farmer's wife in West Texas during World War II. "The pilot aspect of Jo was inspired by real-life aviation pioneers like Jackie Cochran and Nancy Harkness Love, the two commanders of the Women Airforce Service Pilots," he said. "Although this isn't a story about the WASP, Jo was definitely informed by the struggles those real female pilots went through in a very rigidly gender-defined world."—By Jill W. Tallman

Possible free agent target: Brad Boyes
The Capitals top-6 forwards are in need of reinforcements. With Alex Semin set to become an UFA and depending on if the Caps have Brooks Laich penciled in as a 2W or 3C next season, the Caps currently have as few as 4-top 6 forwards on their roster right now (Ovechkin, Backstrom, Brouwer, and newly acquired Mike Ribeiro). These kind of players don't come cheap, via trade or free agency. With a particularly thin free-agent market this year, the price for top-6 forwards is likely to be even more inflated than usual. The Caps have smartly not locked themselves into any crippling free agency deals with such players in recent memory, and it wouldn't be smart to start now. That being said, George McPhee would be smart to look for a player with top-6 potential but who has certain questions marks that will keep the money and term of the deal within reason. On the free agent market this year, a player that fits that mold is Brad Boyes.
Over the course of the 2007-08 and 2008-09 seasons, Boyes played in all 164 games and totaled 76 goals and 62 assists (a 0.84 PPG average). However, in the 3 seasons since then, Boyes has totaled just 38 goals and 91 assists in 210 games (a 0.61 PPG average). Boyes was particularly mediocre this season in Buffalo when he totaled 8 goals and 15 assists in 65 games. So why should the Caps take a look at Boyes?
At 29, Boyes is unlikely to again reach the numbers of 4 years ago, but he is plenty young enough to still be a productive player when put in the right situation. Last season, Boyes played just 13:10 per game and spent time on the Sabres 4th line. While some may see a player whose production has fallen off a cliff, I see a player with a lot to prove who could be had on a cheap one year deal. He likely will be signed to a low-risk/potential high value type deal. Another positive is that Boyes, while primarily a winger, can play center when called upon.
There are reasons to hesitate signing Boyes and there are certainly valid concerns that his days as a top-6 forward are behind him. However, in a day and age when many free agent contracts get bloated to regrettable levels, taking a flyer on Boyes, if he is under the radar, may be worth the risk for the Caps.

I think it's difficult to aim for a "perfect" copy of a NY pizza using home equipment and ingredients. Professional pizza dough mixes have things like dough conditioners and things like that. But even if we can get something close to a genuine NY pizza, that's good enough for me
I've tried various dough conditioners, dough relaxers, etc., and all of them have a negative impact on the flavor of the dough (IMHO).

Winter 2001
Volume 5 Number 2
Academy of
PTS professor Jack Stewart welcomed the Academy of Evangelism in Theological Education
meeting this fall in Princeton by invoking the Seminary's history: "You can hear the overtones of the
patriarchs of 1812. You can hear Archibald Alexander, Samuel Miller, and Charles Hodge. You can hear the pain of the rift in the early twentieth century. But if you listen more deeply still, you'll hear a contemporary seminary. It's a place where the founders hoped learning and piety would be together and never be separated."
Speaking for Peace at the U.N. in
Drum rolls broke the usual solemnity of the United Nations Assembly Hall when hundreds of the world's religious and spiritual leaders opened the
U.N. Millennium Summit last August. Among the robed delegates filing into the hall was Abuna
Paulos, wearing the white robes and jeweled pectoral crosses signifying his office as patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.

Prophet of the American Church
Historian John Piper met Robert E. Speer in the 1960s when Piper was writing a book about the American churches during World War II. Now forty years later Piper has written the first comprehensive biography of the churchman he considers "one of the most
remarkable personalities in the history of Christianity in America."
Poetry That Sings
Michael Hegeman, PTS lecturer and Ph.D. candidate in homiletics and composer-in-residence with the
Lauda! Chamber Singers, recently composed a three-movement piece dealing with requiem texts for a concert of sacred music at the First Presbyterian Church in Pitman, New Jersey. He is also a sort of unofficial composer-in-residence for PTS.
Building Bridges
The Princeton Theological Seminary Institute for Youth Ministry has been awarded a grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. for a three-year project titled
Bridges: Linking Theological Education to the Practice of Youth
Ministry. The project is designed to develop strategies of support and education for those making the transition from seminary to professional ministry.

Catherine Cook Davis, a 1985 PTS M.Div. graduate, is the new director of student relations in the Office of Student Affairs.
Endowing Theological Education for Women
In every part of the world, the number of women involved in theological education is growing. Yet, according to PTS alumna Nyambura Njoroge (1992 Ph.D.), financial limitations prevent many dedicated and qualified women from southern hemisphere countries and from Central and Eastern Europe from receiving the education they need to be leaders in the church.
Life and Death
Last September 250 Christians, Jews, and Muslims gathered at Princeton's Nassau Presbyterian Church to attend Dilemmas on the Death Penalty, a conference sponsored by Interfaith Communities. Among them was Sister Helen
Prejean, author of the book Dead Man Walking, later turned into a box office hit movie of the same name.

The environmental impacts of carrying out these energy plans have not yet been fully considered.the cost of coal. In adverse weather conditions, shipment becomes a precarious obstacle. When a 2008 blizzard blanketed southeastern China in snow and shut down major rail lines, the lights went off in several southeastern cities to which coal shipments were delayed. When last summer's severe drought grounded barge traffic on the lower Yangtze, the largest utility company in downstream Shanghai announced that nearby factories would face rotating blackouts (despite its sheen of modernity, even mainland China's wealthiest city is not immune to power failure).
What is becoming apparent, in China and elsewhere, is that energy and water must be planned for together.penchant for protest in other countries), is currently working on a report to map the availability of water in west China against the anticipated usage of new coal industry.

Jim Cramer: Remember the Upside of Market Fear
Editor's Note: This article was originally published on Real Money on Dec. 4. To see Jim Cramer's latest commentary as it's published, sign up for a free trial of Real Money .
Beware of things that are important until they are not. Last year at this time, we were gripped with the possibility of major defaults on sovereign debt. We were concerned that Spain and Italy, gigantic bond markets, couldn't pay their bills. Every day we would come in and be victimized by the ever-increasing borrowing costs. We knew they had the ability to bring down the whole world with their profligacy and their insistence on not raising taxes to pay for their social welfare states.
Turns out that at that very moment that we were saying they could bring the whole world down, we should have been buying them. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that came and went because the fears far outran the risks. The Europeans offered sensible plans. Responsible governments stepped up to increase taxes and cut benefits -- see, Washington, it can be done -- while at the same time the European Central Bank was able to forge a compromise that backstopped the banks. Many raised debt, too.
It was an all-around tour de force that made the worries look a little ridiculous in retrospect. It is not often you get a double in bonds. But you could have, and given that you could borrow the money to invest in them at very low prices, it may very well have been the single best investment of the 21st century to date.
Now we are gripped with a similar hysteria about our own country, one that is strictly, like Europe's, political. We can reach an agreement, but, more important for stock purposes, we need to be on the lookout for companies that are being obliterated before our eyes by worries about the cliff.
I want to give you a concrete example. Not that long ago, at the bottom in Spain this summer, Banco Santander (SAN) traded at $4.80. The company was perceived to be the biggest loser from the coming Spanish default.
That turned out to be an amazing trade, as the stock has now traveled to $7.70, and I think it goes higher.
You want an analog? For the Action Alerts PLUS charitable trust, we have been buying KeyCorp (KEY), a major Midwest lender that has been pummeled pretty much daily by the fiscal-cliff discussion . Just a few short months ago, it was at $9 and change on the strength of better-than-expected earnings.
Since the cliff discussion, though, it has been sliding down a little almost every day. It is now under $8. At a certain point, this stock is going to have its Santander moment. I can tell from the trading of it that it's not going to happen yet. There are sellers everywhere, and the only thing they have going for them is fear of jumping off the cliff, but the "only" is all that matters.

The project looks at the treatment of children in the justice systems of the European Union (EU), which is an important issue of concern for EU institutions and Member States. The research will identify forms of child participation in criminal and civil judicial proceedings, as well as collect promising practices, in 10 EU Member States. The research will mainly be based on interviews with professionals and children involved in such proceedings.
Practices of child participation in justice proceedings vary considerably across EU Member States. There are gaps in relation to clear, consistent standards and guidelines on how and when children should be involved. In 2011, the European Commission highlighted in the EU Agenda for the Rights of the Child that promoting child-friendly justice is at the centre of its actions. Therefore, in close cooperation with the Commission, FRA is engaging in research to examine practices and procedures of child participation in justice proceedings which should conform to the Council of Europe's guidelines on child-friendly justice.
FRA's EU-wide network of national focal points, FRANET, is carrying out the fieldwork for this qualitative research in Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Poland, Romania, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Interviews were carried out with adults who work with children in 2012. These included legal professionals such as judges, prosecutors, court staff, legal counsellors, lawyers, and law enforcement officials. Staff of social service providers, NGOs, psychologists and social workers were also interviewed. In 2013 and 2014, interviews with children have been conducted in order to learn from their experiences of being involved in judicial proceedings, as witnesses, victims or party to the proceedings. The focus was on cases of domestic violence, sexual abuse, neglect, and custody conflicts in divorce proceedings.
FRA social scientists and legal experts are carrying out the data analysis. The analysis is being complemented by desk research. The main findings will be presented in a comparative report on child participation in justice proceedings in selected Member States.
