Split Second - Indian Paintings - Brooklyn Museum
Ages: All
200 Eastern Parkway - 718-638-5000
Prospect Heights, NY 11238
Description: Split Second invites the Brooklyn Museum's online community to participate in a project that will result in a small installation of Indian paintings from the Museum's permanent collection. Taking its inspiration from the critically acclaimed book Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, by Malcolm Gladwell, this online experiment and resulting installation will explore how our initial reaction to a work of art is affected by what we know, what we're asked, and what we're told about the object in question. Split Second begins with a three-part activity that explores the Museum's collection of Indian paintings; participation is open to anyone with an Internet connection. The first stage explores split-second reactions: in a timed trial, participants will be asked to select which painting they prefer from a randomly generated pair of images. Next, participants will be asked to write in their own words about a painting before rating its appeal on a scale. In the third phase, participants will be asked to rate a work of art after being given unlimited time to view it alongside a typical interpretive text. Each part of the exercise aims to examine how a different type of information—or a lack thereof—might affect a person's reaction to a work of art. Split Second culminates with an installation on the Museum's second floor, opening July 13, 2011. Visitors will be able to view a small selection of the paintings that generated the most controversial and dynamic responses during the evaluation process, accompanied by a visualization and analysis of the data collected. The Brooklyn Museum's collection of Indian paintings ranks among the top ten in the United States, representing the artistic traditions of many different regions, with examples dating from the fifteenth century to the nineteenth. Many of the works in this project have not been on view for several years, owing to their light sensitivity. The installation offers a rare opportunity to see these paintings in person and consider them in a new light. Split Second: Indian Paintings is organized by Shelley Bernstein, Chief of Technology, in consultation with Joan Cummins, Lisa and Bernard Selz Curator of Asian Art, Brooklyn Museum.

I drove down to JCR last week and picked up Mira's Stage 2 rear bumper. Some of the finish grinding is a little uneven, but a little time with a grinder and sander should correct that pretty easily. Overall, it's a pretty nice piece (especially for the sale price at which I bought it), and will work very well for her XJ. We just need to give it a quick coat of primer to keep it from surface-rusting prior to install; it may be a great job for Mira over the upcoming long Thanksgiving weekend.
I also picked up a set of like-new Rubicon front coil springs (and misc. other parts) on craigslist. They have been listed for several months, but were grossly overpriced. After several price drops, they became a very good deal, and I got them. There were several other OEM Rubicon suspension parts included (sway bar links, etc.), along with a TJ bottle jack/handle, which we'll also use for Mira's XJ.
I'm hoping the Rubicon springs give us an additional 1/2" - 1" of lift in the front (combined with 2" Teraflex BB spacers).
We also broke even on one of the '94 XJ 2-dr. parts rig, so it's just a matter of pulling a few last misc. parts, and breaking out the sawzall to cut it up and take it in for scrap. Mira (and her little sister) should enjoy helping with the demolition/sawing, too.
More to come after Thanksgiving weekend (the next solid block of time that I'll have my girls).
Everything I have read on these springs says you might get a 1" drop out of them. If that happens I do have a set of up country springs I'll sell ya. They're just sitting around because I stepped up to a 3" coil.

Royal wedding: ten questions
I am writing this from Heathrow, on the way back the Washington to give my 5th Mellon lecture on Sunday. I did take a peek at a bit of the wedding coverage before I left. Let me say straight away:
If these are two young people wanting to tie the knot, then I wish them all the best.. and what follows is not mean to be mean spirited or churlish. Good luck to them.
And anyway thanks to them, I got to Heathrow in record time (1 hour and 10 minutes from Cambridge... as against close to 2 hours).
All the same... there are some of the puzzles I am left with after the tv nuptials
1) How come the great and the good of this country don't appear to know the words of "Jerusalem" without looking at their hymn sheets, and even then dont seem to be quite certain of how the words fit the tune..?
2) Who WERE the two grey nuns sitting next to the bride and groom right up at the chancel end of the Abbey?
3) Did anyone advise William that (as the daughter pointed out) the red uniform made a TERRIBLE match for his complexion on telly, at least. (More on silly uniforms below)
4) What were the ex-royals doing there, as if they had never lost their thrones? The king of Yugoslavia? Of Greece (didnt actually spot him, but I THINK he was on the guest list)? I can just about get my head around kings and queens, but not ones that have been thrown out. ("No king without a country" would be my rule for such aoccasion, and then you might be able to find a pew for Blair and Brown?)
5) Can the Church of England really go on with this terrible sexism? Good on her, Kate didn't promise tp obey ( I seem to remember that Fergie did.. am I wrong?). But there is still that terrible stuff about "what man gives away this woman..?'
6) Did Harry actually look a bit uncomfortable when the lovely Pippa put his arm into his? Twitter is full of the new romance, but I thought Harry was a slightly embarrassed "real gent" ...
7) What WERE those collars on the Ruritanian uniforms worn by the main players? (The husband calls them "Gaddaffi Costumes"?). Are they concealing braces.. in Prince Philip's case, maybe they are. (And why were even the page-boys in para military uniforms?)
8) Why did Cameron bottle out and not just turn up 'normal'; it pains me to say it, but Sam Cam looked about the best of the whole congregation -- and YIPPEE no hat.
9) How many of the people we saw on the front rows were actually plain clothed police... with machine guns under their frocks, and a special budget for hats to 'blend in'? Like the hatted woman in the front of the car taking Kate and Dad to the Abbey.
10) Quite how many of the audience (aka congregation) were from British ethnic minority communities?? Sure there were a range of foreign ambassadors and "heads of state" who were not white and blonde.. but of the rest?? I have just done a "conversation" with David Lammy in the Guardian about access to Oxbridge (should appear on Saturday: be kind) ... but looking at this, I though that "access to the Abbey" was a pressing issue too.
Maybe my puzzlement is partly my error. I chose to watch on BBC 1 on my laptop, but Ed Stourton on Radio 4 would no doubt have answered these questions.. especially the nuns. All further answers gratefully received.

Put Your Files In Free Storage?
The World Wide Web has become an amazing cornucopia of free goodies. While giving products away may be a dubious business proposition, we consumers may as well enjoy it while it lasts.
The latest free service to blossom is online storage, with companies offering 20 megabytes or more of space on their servers. Twenty MB isn't a lot of space, and it would cost only 30 cents to get that much more on your computer, so it doesn't seem like a great deal. But you can do things with online storage that you can't with a regular hard drive. You can share files with friends or colleagues or easily get access to files from home, work, or on the road. My main reservation concerns the security and privacy of information stored online.
At its best, moving files to Web storage should be as simple as dealing with files on your computer. For starters, the file has to be there when you want it, and this requires an always-on connection to the Internet, the kind you get with a cable modem or digital subscriber line (DSL) phone hookup. But seamless Web storage also demands tight integration between the service and your computer's software.
I found two services that pull this off well: iDisk for the Macintosh and Driveway Corp.'s Driveway for Windows. Apple's iDisk is part of a suite of Web-based services, including free home pages and e-mail, recently launched by the computer maker. All require the use of Mac OS 9.
Once you sign up for a 20-MB iDisk, it appears as an icon on your desktop, just like any other drive. As long as you are connected to the Internet, you can drag files to and from it just as if it were a drive on your machine or a local-area network. You can also create a public folder that anyone can read and copy files from but not write to. Apple is considering making additional space available for a fee, but it hasn't committed to doing so.
If you're a Windows person, Driveway offers a similar service for anyone using Internet Explorer 5.0. Driveway gives you 25 MB free, with the opportunity to purchase more storage--or earn more by getting acquaintances to sign up. Once you've set Driveway up, you can get your files by clicking the Web Folders icon created by Internet Explorer. And if you use Microsoft Office 2000, you can load files from and save them to Driveway from Word or other Office applications. If you're working from a computer that doesn't have your Web Folders set up, you can get to your Driveway files, albeit less conveniently, using any browser to reach a password-protected page. You can also set up a shared folder that is accessible to designated users.
Two other online storage services I looked at were much less compelling. iDrive offers 50 MB of file storage plus "unlimited" space for saving copies of Web pages. It also offers software for collecting Web pages, sharing them with friends, and synchronizing file contents between your desktop and online folders. But compared with better integrated services, the fact that you can get to your files only through a Web browser makes iDrive less attractive.
INTRUSIVE. FreeDrive was so unappealing that I didn't even bother signing up. Not only did the registration procedure ask a number of personal questions with no assurance that the information would be kept private, the terms of service require that I accept ads and promotional e-mail from sponsors. With better alternatives available, it's easy just to say no.
The services promise to keep your private files confidential, but they don't offer much more than their word as assurance--along with the usual legal disclaimers warning that they may not be able to keep their word. There's no evidence that files are encrypted, either on the server or in transit, and a simple password doesn't offer much protection. So I wouldn't use these services to store anything you wouldn't want your competitors, your children, or a total stranger to see.
That's a serious limitation, but Web storage is still a handy way to share files and keep online copies of important, but not sensitive, files. With better security and stronger privacy, it could become a very useful tool.

Travel just west of Paso Robles, and you will find Paderewski Vineyard: 67 acres of undulating, steep, limestone rich hillsides within 350 rural, spring-fed acres. In the early 1900's, this vineyard was cherished and farmed by world-renowned pianist, polish diplomat, and vintner, Ignacy Jan Paderewski. Fast forward a century, and this property stood forgotten and fallow. Lucky for us, in 2004, we became the stewards of this amazing piece of property. With a specific vision and mission to bring this historic vineyard back to life, the Epoch story began.
Home to intense soils that bare little resemblance to typical California soils, this vineyard is filled with lean, rocky, and calcareous soils. After carefully pairing the hillsides with their respective wine grape variety, the vineyard is planted to Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Petite Sirah, Tempranillo, Zinfandel, Grenache Blanc, and Picpoul Blanc. These vines are mostly grafted onto Phylloxera resistant Native American rootstock with the exception of a few blocks of Syrah and Grenache vines planted on their own rootstock.
Creating a patchwork of vines, the vineyard's clone selections were carefully chosen to create the perfect match between soil and vine. In addition, the vineyard blocks were meticulously laid out based on their unique exposures, soil attributes, and mesoclimates. Today, you are able to taste the synergy created by the methodical planting decisions made in 2004, as each block is happily producing fruit specific to their exact location.
Just like our soils, our climate here is intense. The Paso Robles wine region benefits from the largest diurnal temperature swing of any region in California. Daily, temperatures can vary as much as 50 degrees Fahrenheit, creating the ideal environment for achieving that perfect acidity in ripening wine grapes. At Paderewski Vineyard, each warm afternoon is greeted with cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean sweeping east through the Templeton Gap, allowing our vines to take full advantage of Paso's unique temperatures.
It is obvious to us why Ignacy Jan Paderewski sought out this exact location to plant his roots – both personally and for his vines. The breathtaking views, the soil composition, the climate, and the community are unlike any other wine region in the world. We are beyond humbled to have call this property our own, and will continue to honor Paderewski's legacy by cherishing these 350 acres and carrying out the vision we share for this land.

They are cowards and turncoats who seek to work within a system that is morally bankrupt.

Turkish football clubs are set to found a corporation to organize top-flight football, embracing the English Premier League model according to Turkish newspaper Hurriyet .
According to the plan, Turkey's Super League will be administrated the way England's lucrative top-flight football organization is managed. A corporation would be founded by the Union of Clubs, the entity formed by the chairmen of 18 top-flight teams.
The key to the sustainability of this project is "transparency," according to İbrahim Altınsay, sports pundit and former Beşiktaş board member.
"The Premier League plan could be adapted to Turkish football, and it could be lucrative and entertaining," Altınsay told CNNTürk television channel. "But that company should be transparent, it should be open to being supervised, and it should be lucrative."
The organization scheme was presented to Youth and Sports Minister Suat Kılıç at a meeting on Dec. 25 by former Galatasaray vice president Mehmet Helvacı.
"The organization of the Super League is held by the Turkish Football Federation and the Union of Clubs has no function," Helvacı told the Turkish Newspaper. "In the new structure, there will be a corporation and all the clubs will be stakeholders of this private company. All the benefits would be distributed to the stakeholders. Teams relegated from the Super League would sell their stakes to the ones who are promoted."
The plan is inspired by the English Premier League, which became the world's most lucrative national football competition thanks to its business plan.
The Turkish Super League hopes "to increase its broadcast rights" with the new plan, the daily reported. In 2010, Digiturk bought the broadcasting rights of the Super League for four years, with a yearly $321 million deal.
The plan aims to boost the income in football and help Turkish football clubs, the overwhelming majority of which are struggling under heavy debts.
In the English Premier League, clubs share 50 percent of the total broadcasting income equally. A quarter is distributed to the clubs based on the number of games shown live on television, and the remaining 25 percent is distributed depending on their seasonal performances in the competition. Unlike the English Football Association (FA), "the Turkish Football Federation will get 10 percent of the broadcasting rights."
However, it is reported that in organizing the game, the federation will continue to oversee the league and the appointment of the referees with its sub-commissions.

1954 Ford Coupe Transmission problem
Hi all, I'm new to the website and have already found tons of great information about my car. I just bought it, 54 Ford with
a 233 Straight 6 with a 3 speed manual transmission (3 on the tree). I was told that the engine and trans are original. Here is the problem.
Since i've had it, 2 days the car has run okay. The 2nd gear
kind of whines (kinda like the old manual shift school buses). Anyways, now to shift into any gear, you have to force it (aka grinding gears) Once it is in gear, I can hear a taping and something inside the bell housing rotating (fly-wheel?). As soon as you let out of the clutch, (only while in gear) the tapping goes away and the car will move. I haven't tried to shift gears since this has happened. I filled the transmission fluid level, it was very low, I replaced the fluid, can some tell me the correct fluid to use in these old transmissions? I know nothing about transmissions so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Neal McVickers
Providence, RI
Use 90wt. gear oil in the trans.
Your shifting problem sounds like throwout bearing/clutch linkage related more than transmission.
The whine in second gear sounds like trans bearing problem.
Your shifting problem sounds like throwout bearing/clutch
linkage related more than transmission.
The whine in second gear sounds like trans bearing problem.
Thank you so much for the info frisco, Could you or anyone help lead me in the correct direction?
Is there a rule of thumb when adjusting the clutch linkage? I'm
assuming that when the clutch is pressed it needs to draw more
of the linkage open? Do i have to adjust all ranges, or only in
first ?
The whine goes away if there is a load on the transmission(ie
going up a hill). I usually try not to use 2nd very long. But this
whine, does it warrant me to look at getting the problem fixed
as soon as I can?
Thank you!!
Neal McVickers
Providence, RI
Adjust the clutch linkage so that you have 3/4-1" freeplay at the clutch pedal.
It doesn't matter what gear you are in when adjusting the linkage. You may have worn out linkage which should be visible. The throwout bearing may need to be replaced. This involves sliding the trans back or removing the trans to get to the throwout bearing. Depending on the miles on the complete clutch assembly; you might consider replacing the throwout bearing and the clutch disc & the pressure plate. Have the flywheel resurfaced as well. The pilot bushing (bronze bushing pressed into the end of the crank that the end of the trans mainshaft locates in) may also need replacing. Check all the linkage for wear and replace what is required.
I adjusted the knocking out
I adjusted the knocking out of the clutch and also the whine in second gear, but I still have to force/grind it into first gear. The car shifts fine from second to third. Is there s syro to put the transmission into 1st? I know i have to still drop the transmission, but i'm just wondering if i need to get it rebuilt or just replace the clutch,and/or throw-out bearing, pad.. Thanks for all that have responded.

A reporter recently asked Ann Romney if she and her husband would vacation abroad as much as 'the Obamas' if Mitt is elected president. "I doubt that," she replied, "Our vacations and our happiness come from being with our children and grandchildren." It was an odd question on the reporter's part considering that while Michelle Obama and the girls took a controversial trip to Spain, President Obama has not vacationed abroad since taking office.
Ann Romney added that as for vacation spots, her family has its "own places for that." Indeed: Here is just one, a Spanish-style beachfront home in La Jolla. But the house will not remain this way for long, according to renovation plans reported earlier this year that would drastically increase the size of the house. Those plans call for a four-car garage with car elevator, a water feature and outdoor shower, and a new 3,600 square-foot basement. If the plans are carried out, the house will more than triple into a mansion size of about 11,000 square feet.

Caitlyn Metz said she left her apartment for two hours on an errand to the store and when she returned home and she found her 23-month-old son unresponsive in bed.
The next day, on Feb. 8, 2009, Keegan Andrew Metz was dead, succumbing to horrific injuries that included severe trauma to the forehead and evidence of sodomy. Based on medical evidence and other investigation findings, Metz and her husband, former Spc. Joshua Ryan Starner, await trial in Clarksville, Tenn., charged with murder and rape. No further details were available, nor was an explanation about why Keegan's mother was also charged with rape and murder.
Starner enlisted in July 2006 and served in Iraq from September 2007 to October 2008. An 11C indirect fire infantryman, he was assigned to 1st Battalion, 187th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell. He was discharged in May 2010.
Mishandling an Xbox
Eight-year-old RJ will probably have to be fed through a tube for the rest of his life because his mother's boyfriend, Sgt. Rocky Donadio, beat him so badly that doctors had to remove part of his pancreas and intestines.
Donadio beat him after the boy accidentally deleted Donadio's Xbox "Grand Theft Auto" profile. Donadio is serving a 75-year sentence on related charges for the 2009 assault at Fort Sill, Okla.
He was charged in August 2010, nine months after his girlfriend's son RJ was hospitalized with serious permanent injuries. It took the jury 30 minutes to convict Donadio.
He was discharged after his conviction and busted to E-1.
RJ's mother, Misty Stobaugh was also charged and convicted of abusing RJ. She will be released from prison this summer, according to Oklahoma corrections department records.
Donadio's last assignment was with 2nd Battalion, 5th Artillery Regiment, 75th Fires Brigade at Fort Sill. He was a radio operator-maintainer who was deployed for a year in Iraq from November 2005 to November 2006. He was awarded three Army Achievement Medals, three Good Conduct Medals and an Army Commendation Medal.
Crying too much
Kevin Randal Hill, 32, is serving a 144-month prison sentence for the brutal beating of his 5-month-old daughter while his wife was away from home for a field exercise in January 2011. He was at home after a recent medical discharge, but was living on Fort Sill with his wife, Casey Barnett Ruiz, an active-duty soldier.
In a written confession, Hill admitted beating Liyah when she would not stop crying, then slammed the baby onto a couch and pushed his weight onto her, causing her to stop breathing.
"I went to the field and came back and she was on her deathbed," said Ruiz, a diesel mechanic who has since remarried and remains at Fort Sill.
Liyah, now almost 3, survived but is severely disabled.
"She can't walk, she can't talk," Ruiz told Army Times. "She can't crawl, she's wheelchair-bound."
Ruiz said her daughter has a 15-year life expectancy.
Hill joined the Army in 2002 and served until March 2010 when he was discharged for a non-combat-related injury. He was a food service specialist who did two tours in Afghanistan and five months in Iraq.
At sentencing, Hill's defense presented testimony and evidence that Hill suffered from post-traumatic stress, a claim his former wife vehemently disputes.
"He was never diagnosed with PTSD before this happened," she said.
Hill was also ordered to pay more than $1.2 million into a fund to cover the baby's lifetime medical care, though his ex-wife said she doesn't expect to see any of that money.
Because Liyah's condition makes it impossible for Ruiz to deploy, she said she is being kicked out of the Army.
"The Army is forcing me to choose between Liyah and the Army, and I'd choose her before the Army every day," she said.
Planning for life after the Army, Ruiz is taking nursing classes four nights a week, getting home at 9 p.m. to relieve her mother, who cares for Liyah.
"We're trying to get a fundraiser together to buy her a handicap van," she said, adding that the vehicle will cost between $50,000 and $70,000.
Hill has been discharged. While he was in the Army, Hill received four Army Commendation Medals, three Army Achievement Medals and two Good Conduct Medals.
The torture of Malik
The Comanche County, Okla., assistant district attorney told the jury that 1st Lt. Lancey D. Ray "tortured" his 10-year-old stepson, Malik Ray. On the day Malikdied, Ray had been disciplining him most of the day because he wanted a different lunch than Ray offered. He forced Malik to stand outside in freezing temperatures and stand at attention for extended periods of time and beat him with a belt. Malik did not survive the ordeal.
Ray is serving life behind bars for the first-degree murder of Malik. Malik's mother, Denise Ray, was later charged with enabling child abuse because she allegedly hit the child with a board so hard that she broke it. Her trial date has not been set.
Lancey Ray, 40, entered the Army in 1997, rising to the rank of sergeant before going to Officer Candidate School and earning his commission in 2009. He was a field artillery officer when he was discharged after his conviction. He deployed to Iraq from March 2006 to April 2007, Army records show. He earned three Army Commendations Medals, two Army Achievement Medals and three Good Conduct Medals.
Fatally failing Talia
Spc. Naeem Williams obtained custody of his daugther in December 2004. Seven months later, she was dead and he was in jail, charged with first-degree murder and facing the death penalty. The infantryman is scheduled to go to trial in January for allegedly beating 5-year-old Talia Williams to death. Talia's stepmother, Delilah Williams, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and is awaiting sentencing. She is expected to testify against Spc. Williams.
Talia's mother, Tarshia Williams, who lives in South Carolina, has sued the Army for its failure to protect Talia from her family despite significant evidence that Talia was being abused during her seven months at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii.
Her lawsuit contends many in the Army failed to intervene or ask questions that might have saved her daughter's life.
The Army tried to have the case thrown out, but senior U.S. District Judge Alan C. Kay ruled in April 2010 that her case could go forward. In a 42-page opinion Kay quoted then-Maj. Gen. Benjamin Mixon, saying "the death of Talia Williams followed a series of missed opportunities to potentially prevent the death of the child." Mixon was commander of the 25th Infantry Division at the time and noted that he directed an investigation of the case, which indicated the [Family Advocacy Program Manager] was negligent in her duty to report suspected child abuse."
According to court records, Schofield military police were called July 16, 2005, to Talia's home, where she was unresponsive and had no pulse. She was pronounced dead at Wahiawa General Hospital that day.
"EMS discovered bruises on Talia's arms, chest, knees and thighs, as well as a small laceration on her back," court records said.
In a sworn statement in court documents, Spc. Williams "confessed to striking Talia on numerous occasions beginning on March 15 in order to 'discipline' Talia, including on July 16, causing her death."
Delilah Williams told agents that on the day Talia died, Spc. Williams spanked Talia with his belt for wetting herself. Later in the afternoon, Spc. Williams went to check on Talia and learned that she had wet herself again.
"Naeem Williams yelled at Talia to get in the shower and he hit her in the hallway," the document says. "Talia fell from the blow. Naeem Williams then picked up Talia, put her in the bathtub and poured water on her. She did not regain consciousness."
Talia's room had no mattress, no blankets and no furniture as they had all been removed by her parents "as a form of punishment," the document says. The complaint says that "blood spatters could be seen throughout the Williams residence." Talia's room had "blood splatters on the walls … caused by Naeem Williams 'whipping' Talia with his belt on Talia's back 'bursting open' the scars."
According to the court records, Williams frequently duct-taped Talia to a bunk bed post, covering her eyes and mouth with duct tape — "so she couldn't scream" or see — and then he whipped her with a belt "for more an hour at a time." At times, Williams and his wife withheld food from Talia for days at a time and sometimes they made her "squat like a duck" as a "disciplinary intervention." The court record indicates that this treatment went on for months.
But the Army had plenty of warning that Talia was in danger.
According to the court records, five months earlier, in February, Criminal Investigative Command agent Michael Parker was notified by MPs that employees at the Schofield Barracks Child Development Center saidthat marks on Talia's body made them suspect she was a victim of child abuse. When the development center employee asked Talia about the marks, she said they were "bug bites, her mother hit her, her father hit her and spider bites as well," according to court documents.
CID agents asked the development center employees to take Talia to the acute care center at Schofield Barracks to be examined by a doctor. The doctor, identified in court records as Dr. Mark Schmalz, examined Talia and concluded it was not child abuse.
"I can't say with 100 percent certainty, but about 99, 98 to 99 percent certainty that it was not abuse," he is quoted as telling the CID agent in charge. Schmalz has not responded to Army Times' request for comment.
While Schmalz was examining Talia, CID says it did a background check on Williams and his wife and found nothing suspicious. Based upon the doctor's opinion, and the lack of suspicious information in the background checks, CID did not inform Hawaii Child Protective Services — as called for in an agreement between the Army and the state of Hawaii. After the doctor's conclusion and the results of the background check on Naeem and Delilah Williams, CID handed Talia back to her parents.
But according to court records, the Williams household had been the subject of several domestic violence reports in January and February 2005. And in June — a month before Talia was killed — MPs received a call from a neighbor reporting that there was a child screaming in the Williams home. The MPs responded and found Talia "upstairs in a room, naked and mute, standing near feces on the floor" with scratches on her face, according to court records. Her father told the MPs she was scratched by a friend. The MPs took no action and left Talia in the home.
The death of Harmone'e
Pfc. Roderick L. Elam Jr., 21, was convicted in January of causing the brain and liver injuries that led to the 2011 death of 2-month-old Harmone'e Elam.
Elam was an automated logistics specialist assigned to Fort Carson, Colo. He was sentenced to 32 years in prison, according to the court records.
Elam's wife, Lakeria Shazarea Grant, 21, also is charged with child abuse resulting in death, accused of failing to act upon her daughter's medical needs. She faces an August trial, according to the Colorado court records.
Police allege that she and her husband waited until Harmone'e stopped breathing before calling 911.
Under questioning by police, Elam eventually admitted to the use of force against the girl, including squeezing her abdomen between his legs and hitting her on the back of the head. He also claimed the child knocked her head on a bathtub soap tray, The (Colorado Springs) Gazette reported.
Elam entered the Army in June 2010 and was assigned to Fort Carson in January 2011. He was discharged in September 2012.
A convicted molester
Spc. Joseph Allsop, 29, was sentenced in February 2012 to two life sentences for the sexual assault and murder of his 5-month-old daughter Jade at Fort Hood, Texas.
Allsop wasn't a suspect in Jade's death until he was accused — and confessed to — molesting a boy, a 7-year-old family member.
The coroner had ruled that Jade's 2005 death was due to "undetermined causes." But the molestation confession led investigators to learn that when Allsop was 14, he was convicted of molesting a 9-year-old boy in Oregon, according to Shaina Allsop. She said he was supposed to be a registered sex offender.
When Shaina Allsop learned of her husband's sordid history, she urged investigators to reopen the unexplained death of Jade.
Jade Allsop was home with her dad when she stopped breathing and was rushed to the hospital. She was revived once in the ambulance, but died soon thereafter.
Allsop soon wrote a 12-page confession, admitting to molesting Jade, the 7-year-old relative and several other children. When the police confronted Allsop about Jade's death, his wife said, he admitted that he sexually suffocated her.
Because of the Oregon molestation, Joseph Allsop was a convicted sex offender when he enlisted in 2002. The routine Army background check did not uncover Allsop's juvenile record. Army Recruiting Command officials point out that many states seal juvenile records to those screening recruits.
The Army relies on face-to-face questioning by recruiters who ask, four times, "Do you have or have you ever had any law violations?" In many cases, according to a recruiting command spokesman, "an applicant who has had violations as a juvenile has no record that recruiters can access. And if he answers the recruiter's question by responding that he has never had any law violations, there is no way for a recruiter to know otherwise."
Allsop was subjected to a second background check when he re-entered the Army in April 2007. Again, the juvenile record apparently was not discovered.
In a June 4 congressional hearing on sexual assaults, Army Chief of Staff Gen. Ray Odierno acknowledged that the Army's background checks are imperfect.
"Background checks are done," Odierno said, "but the ability to identify sexual offenders is certainly not 100 percent right now. We have to do better job of doing that."
90 days for 2-time abuser
Spc. Daniel Sheffield pleaded guilty in January 2012 to child abuse resulting in serious bodily injury. He entered the plea during an appearance before Colorado Springs District Judge Thomas Kennedy, according to The Gazette.
Sheffield, 26, was arrested in July 2011, accused of throwing a bottle at his 8-month-old son, fracturing the baby's skull. He was sentenced in March 2012 to 90 days in jail and five years of intensive supervision.
A 91B wheeled vehicle mechanic assigned to the 43rd Combat Support Sustainment Brigade, 4th Infantry Division, Sheffield called a Colorado Springs police detective in July 2011 to confess he lied to investigators twice in the past day about his son's injuries, The Gazette reported.
Sheffield and his wife took their son to Evans Army Community Hospital, where doctors diagnosed him with a skull fracture and subdural hematoma, police said, according to The Gazette.
The child was transferred to Memorial Hospital and was released the next afternoon, according to Brian Newsome, the hospital's spokesman.
Sheffield first told police that he found two large plastic toys in the infant's playpen, and implied his
5-year-old son dropped them on his brother.
A few hours later, though, he told investigators that he was dancing with the child in his arms when he lost his balance, hitting the 8-month-old's head on the dining room table.
Sheffield said he concocted the first story to keep his children from being taken away by social services workers since he had a history of child abuse.
Two years earlier, in November 2009, Sheffield was arrested and charged with misdemeanor child abuse after leaving bruises on his son, according to court records. He pleaded guilty in January 2010, according to court records and was given a two-year deferred sentence, as well as 48 hours of community service. He was allowed to stay in the Army, and served a year in Afghanistan. He was discharged in February 2012.
The major and his wife
A federal grand jury in New Jersey indicted an Army major and his wife charging them with 17 counts of abusing their three foster children over five years.
According to the indictment, Maj. John E. Jackson and his wife, Carolyn Jackson, employed "disciplinary and child-rearing techniques that were neglectful and cruel on the Jackson foster/adoptive children."
The techniques named in the indictment include physically assaulting the adoptive children and their own three biological children.
They abused the adoptive children, the indictment says, by not allowing them to drink water, forcing one to "consume food that caused them pain and suffering such as red pepper flakes, hot sauce and/or raw onion … [and to] ingest excessive sodium, or sodium-laden substances."
The indictment says the Jacksons ordered their biological children to make sure the thirsty adoptive children did not drink from the toilet.
Prosecutors said the children suffered broken bones from the beatings and the couple didn't allow the children to get medical attention.
Jackson is a field artillery officer assigned to Program Executive Office Ammunition at Picatinny Arsenal, N.J. He and his wife were ordered to have no contact with children.
They have pleaded not guilty to the charges.
A trial has not yet been scheduled.
The starvation of Marcus
When Pvt. Connell Williams moved to Fort Sill from Fort Gordon, Ga., in August 2009, he left his wife and two children — both daughters — with their mother.
Williams was soon joined by his girlfriend, Candice Holloway, and her two children, 10-year-old Marcus and 8-year-old Karisma.
Williams applied for on-post housing, telling Fort Sill authorities that Holloway was his wife and the boy and girl were his children.
In the on-post house where Marcus lived, Williams and Holloway withheld food from Marcus and were routinely "beating him about the head and shoulders with a plastic bat, striking on the bottom of his feet with drum sticks … pouring ice cold water on" him "when he was disrespectful or would steal food," according to court documents.
The court seized a video of Marcus being brutalized by Williams. "Connell made him put on his full 50-60 pounds of gear and march around the living room," according to Sanford Coats, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Oklahoma.
According to the indictment charging Williams with first-degree murder, Marcus was systematically starved and tortured by Williams.
When Marcus, getting only 500 calories a day, tried to steal food, he was beaten. He died of starvation on May 5, 2011. He weighed 44 pounds.
Coats initially sought the death penalty for Pvt. Williams. But he pleaded guilty in February and was sentenced to life behind bars. The next month, he was dishonorably discharged. Holloway was sentenced to 30 years in prison.
The plea was entered after two days of trial, causing the presiding judge to say he was forced to "respectfully disagree" with the decision to accept a plea from Williams.
Despite Marcus' deteriorating condition, neighbors did not seem to notice or question why neither he nor his sister attended school. Although Candace Holloway had no military ID, she moved freely around the post.
According to sources familiar with the case, Pvt. Williams presented his marriage license when applying for housing for his "family."
He had two daughters yet he registered a boy and girl. No one checked the records.
The Army launched a 15-6 into the incident but stopped the investigation at the request of federal authorities.
Fort Sill officials refused to answer questions about the case.■

Feature Album - September 24 - 28
September 28, 2012 , 10:27 AM by Jo Printz
For a young, four-piece band that have only been around a year or so, The Ruben's debut self-titled album is surprisingly assured. Possibly because they recorded it in New York with veteran US producer David Kahne (New Order, Regina Spektor, The Strokes) and really crafted their lush, soulful sound well.
Unearthed by triplej in 2011, this indie group of three bothers (Sam, Elliot and Zaac Margin) and a mate (Scott Baldwin) have sky-rocketed from Menangle, NSW to Manhattan in a very short time but they seem to have kept their focus, and it's depth becomes clear with every spin of the album.
There are moments of brilliance…the strings in The Best We've Got, the organ in My Gun, the soaring vocals in Never Be the Same and hand claps in Lay It Down; but for the most part it's just great, solid, brooding, bluesy pop.
The writing is simple but paints intimate pictures of genuine emotion, passion, love and loss. A favourite lyric comes from Be Gone – 'be gone, be proper gone, I'll find a better you someday'.
The week we featured this album it shot to number three on the ARIA charts. It's definitely worthy of the attention.
Can't wait to see what they do next.

Ecosystem-based Adaptation
Operationalizing Ecosystem Based Adaptation in the Greater Mekong Sub-Region
To respond to this gap, the World Bank, in partnership with the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), and in the context of the broader World Bank Netherland Partnership Program (BNPP), supported the development of a generic operational framework for considering and assessing EbA responses. This framework was piloted in two countries (Lao PDR and Vietnam), and produced several valuable pieces of work that are aimed at supporting the development of EbA responses and mainstreaming of EbA in policy and planning.
The development of the generic framework and associated products comes at an opportune time when international policy negotiators and national decision makers are taking steps to integrate and mainstream EbA in their policy and on-the-ground work. Interest in EbA is rapidly increasing and the approach is now considered an important aspect of "climate-smart" development.

Boom a rang diner is absolutely awesome! The burgers rival Hardens in Owasso. I'd still give Hardens the edge, but by a very narrow margin. There is NO better breakfast in town!! I had never been to a boomarang diner before. However, since discovering it here in Owasso, and having been to the one in Claremore, I can say without reservation, I have had some of the BEST food and consistent service in my life!! Boom a rang is in my top 5 short list of places to eat in the entire Tulsa and surrounding areas. Never dissappointed and my family and I are picky!ReplyDelete

Oh, well hello there...hope you are greeted with a bit of sunshine today, or a few clouds if you are in need of a break from the heat like we are here. Pulled back the curtains today, laying out my lists and getting to work. Working on something vintage and layered to share for tomorrow from Riddersholm, but first...a little something posted on the Chic Tags blog yesterday.
A few new die cuts from Papertrey Ink matched perfectly with the sentiment tag from Chic Tags. Cut out a small heart from the vintage valentine tags and pinned it to the white chipboard cloud. Something cheery. Don't forget to enter my giveaway HERE by next Tuesday...when I will be at the airport pacing the floor until my little ones and mom arrive! So excited to have them home and will have my crafty, best cook in the world mother here for a couple of weeks....yeah.
Have a great day...

I have a girlfriend who son doesn't work and brings his girlfriend in the house and stays the night. I think he is disrespectful to his mother and she does not help the situation by letting her son's girlfriend stay over. What do I do as the boyfriend?
When we date a woman; or get into a relationship with her, we are 'taking up' the whole package.
You should not start a relationship with a woman if you have any issues with her or her arrangements.
I know it's harsh to say but mothers love their children unconditionally. No matter what happens she will be always behind her son.
At 19 it is still ok to be at home with her. At this age he has his personal life and having a girlfriend is normal.
He is an adult and there is nothing wrong or strange they are sleeping together.
The problem can be if he stays with her mom for too long. He should be actively seeking work and moving out.
A good arrangement would be if gets a work and his mom to ask him to pay rental. After 6 months or so she can tell him he's got another half a year to move out on his own.
She would save the rental money and gave it back to him once he is moving.
That will give him a good start.
If he's got a girlfriend it should be in their interest to have privacy and home of their own.
You need to discuss this with your partner and take necessary steps. Slowly, so everybody is happy.
Your girlfriend wouldn't want to have her son there when he is 25.
Love is not about allowing doing anything what he wants to.
Her son needs to learn to be self sufficient. However, 19 is too early for many boys.
Talk about it; mother should give him (let's say) two year plan to do something about his situation.
Work wise, there is no apology for not working. He should actively seek it and do something in his life.
You have no option but wait till the situation clears.
The problem is not in sleeping with his girlfriend. It is about not working. Once you solve the problem with work then he can go on his own.
Second option is to find another woman.
Life is not simple.

Luke, a 16 year old male from the Internet asks on February 24, 2000,A question about tri-coil atomic fusion/fision... If one used positive and negative ionized plasma, would these have enough attraction to tear apart an atom? If so, would one use the same tactic to put an atom back together, by attracting the parts of the atom to create a whole atom?
viewed 13675 times
By itself, the energy contained in a plasma (which by definition includes electrons and ionized atoms) is not enough to cause fission or fusion. However, if you add energy to the plasma, such as by heating it, you can get nuclei to fuse together. This is how magnetic-confinement (Tokamak) fusion reactors work, such as the proposed ITER reactor that the global fusion community wants to build. In this case the plasma is not a "requirement", but rather a "result" of the fact that you need to heat your fuel to many millions of degrees -- at which point a completely ionized plasma is all that exists.
On a related note, you can get atoms to split by hitting them with other atoms, but again you generally need to add energy to the reaction, such as with an accelerator. Alternatively, a nuclear reactor can do it without adding energy, by taking advantage of the neutral charge of neutrons (no energy is needed to get them close to other atoms), and the relatively large inherent energy they bring to a nucleus that absorbs them.
In short, whether or not a material is ionized plays no part in the process of fusing or fissioning atoms. Ionization involves energy of the electrons (typically in the electron-Volt range), while the breaking up or fusing of nuclei involves energy of the nucleus itself, which is millions of times greater.

I know I'm supposed to start here talking about Bearcats basketball, their win over the Fighting Camels last night and some of the fine perspective given my Mick Cronin after the game.
I can't. I just can't. That's because I woke up this morning researching the schedule of a Division III team out of Iowa. I'm mesmerized by what Grinnell College's Jack Taylor did last night. He scored 138 points in a win against Faith Baptist. He hit 27 3-pointers! He shot 52 of 108 from the field!
Not shockingly, zero assists.
At some point one of his teammates had to have been wide open under the basket for a layup yelling at him, throwing his headband, right? They did win 179-104. I want to see these guys play. Unfortunately the closest they come to here is about a six-hour drive. Almost still feels worth it.
I think Kobe is regretting supporting the Mike D'Antoni hire right now. A few LA losses and he'll be coming out in support of the Grinnell coach any day now.
OK, let's eat ...
--- Last night I wrote about Sean Kilpatrick, Cashmere Wright and JaQuon Parker, both how well they are playing and a mini-investigation into if there needs to be a fourth scorer to emerge.
Basically, the answers I got during the investigation from Mick was not really. As long as this team is posting 92 points per game he doesn't care who scores. He'll tell you as much.
"I don't care who scores," Cronin said.
Sure, having another weapon would be great, but as long as the other positions contribute occasionally there's no reason to care how many shots those three are taking. They are too good to care.
Granted, these numbers are relative this early in the season, but for perspective, SK (102) and Cash (252) both rank in the top 260 nationally in overall offensive rating, according to KenPom. If you look at estimated field goal percentage, which takes into account added weight for 3-pointers, SK ranks 23rd in the country right now. Yeah, you want that guy taking your shots.
They also both rank in the 150 nationally for percentage of shots taken when on the floor -- they both are around 31 percent. Nobody else under Mick Cronin ever topped 28.5 percent -- that counts Deonta Vaughn in his "only option on the floor" prime of 2007.
The Bearcats have taken 263 shots this season. Cash, SK, Park have taken 129 of them. That's 49 percent.
The key for Mick is shot selection. That was part of the problem in the first half, when settling too much for contested jumpers the opportunity to cut and dish were lost. Once SK did that more in the second half the whole court opened up for everyone -- including Kilpatrick.
--- While I'm at it, part of last night's story involved me jumping around the different nicknames we've heard for these three. Tommy G has been pushing the Three Amigos. Dan Hoard suggested the Cincinnati Three-Way to be true to the Cincy chili roots.
There is the standard Big Three that rolls off the tongue nicely. Or possibly we go into their hip-hop pop culture and instead of Trey Songz, go with Trey Problemz? Trey Day? 3 Chainz?
Clearly, we need your help! Vote in the poll or please, please, send in your ideas and we'll run your email suggestions next week when we hash this thing out once and for all.
--- Now that we've covered that, wanted to mention that Cheikh Mbodj is currently blocking 20.3% of the shots he sees, which is an absurd number. It ranks third in the nation right now. Sure, it's early. But the guy is protecting everything at the rim.
Speaking of protecting the rim -- Kilpatrick with a disrespectful block last night hitting the SC Top 10.
--- Wanted to hop in on a few things Mick said regarding this weekend's Vegas tournament. UC plays Iowa State Friday at 6:30 ET and then the winner/loser of UNLV/Oregon on Saturday.
All three are quality programs right now. Campbell played both UC and Iowa State and coach Robbie Laing favored the Bearcats.
"Cincinnati is much more physical," he said. "I don't want to give bulletin board material to Iowa State. Cincinnati sat on top of us tonight defensively, we didn't see that at Iowa State. Cincinnati smothered us. We couldn't reverse the ball; they forced us into one-on-one play. Cincinnati is too long for us to convert one-on-one baskets, Iowa State didn't have that problem. Offensively, Cincinnati is a little tighter and executed awfully well. ... I think Cincinnati is ranked where they ought to be in comparison to Iowa State. They're a little bit further ahead right now."
So, there's that. The concept of playing No. 18 UNLV in the championships seems to be the matchup everyone desires -- but Oregon is no slouch, either. My guess, at least three of these four teams are in the Dance, if not all four. They haven't played many great opponents, but all four teams are a combined 14-0.
While coming away with a championship from the tournament would be nice and a decent measuring stick, Cronin will tell you how little it actually means. One of my favorite quotes of the season here:
"If you win them both, they say you're great and we're not great," he said. "If you lose them both, they're going to say you stink and you don't stink. If you win one and lose one, they're going to say you're just OK. And none of it means anything because it's November. It's just the truth."
That said, these players have been sitting around watching Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina, Duke, etc, play these major TV games. They are itching to jump in the action.
"I'm expecting teams to actually come at us," Cash said. "We have a bulls-eye on our back and people are talking about us being a ranked team so people are going to come out there and give us their best game. We just have to come out there and stay focused for 40 minutes, play good defense and not let down."
--- Great to see Mike DeCourcy and Lance McAlister on press row last night. By some crazy coincidence I'd never really met Lance before. Still not sure how that's possible considering the circles we both run it, but it was great to sit next to him and chat during the game. He is a walking iPad advertisement. He's showing off all the great ways that thing can be used.
--- Also last night, filed under hilarious things seen: As Athletic Director Whit Babcock was making the rounds down press row during the game talking to a few of us, he was leaning over to talk to the sitting scribes courtside but as a tall guy it's hard to bend down far enough not to block a bit of the view of those behind him. A particularly frustrated older gentlemen in the front row basically said, AD or no AD, I'm using my cane to make sure you get the message I'd like you to move. So poke away he did. Hey, those aren't cheap seats -- and Whit happily obliged by slinking out of the way.
On to some randomness ...
--- Scarlett Johnansson likes journalists -- what?!? When did this happen and why was I not informed?
--- I guess these types of things happen all the time in Thailand, but a cabbie found $900k in his ride.
--- If your mall decides to repel Santa from the ceiling on a rope, let's be honest, that rope getting stuck in his beard three stories up is what everyone watching is hoping for.
--- The 15 best dogs in pop culture. Really thought Comet from Full House had more pull.
--- As always, big weekend for movies after Thanksgiving -- Lincoln and Flight on my docket, in that order.
--- Really, trying to come up with the SK, Cash, Park nickname feels like this Wiz Khalifa song is the perfect fit for today: "Nameless." Maybe that could be their nickname? Would be very next level.

Expansion / Contraction 2x4 whitewood studs on brick
3 Attachment(s)
Home was built in the 1860s.
Old material removed: Plaster, lath and 1 5/8" x2 1/8" wood studs that ran from the bottom of each ceiling joist (ceiling joists are pocketed into 1st course of brick) to subfloor were removed from a 2nd floor room. The 1 5/8 x 2 1/8s were also fastened to the brick wall with nails into wood blocks (brick shaped) that are built into the brick wall. Attic is located above the 2nd floor.
New material installed and proposed:
2x4 framing with header, faced fiberglass insulation, drywall (possibly vapor barrier between brick wall and studs?)
The thought behind the removal was to install a 2x4 wall that could be insulated with faced roll insulation for better temperature control within the room.
1) Will the expansion and contraction of the 2x4s create stress on the brick wall? (brick is 2 course). The house is located in a Northern climate with no air conditioning in the summer, so humidity fluctuates significantly over the year.
2) Should the 2x4 studs be affixed to the wood blocks in the brick wall? Did this give support to the brick wall or was it intended to give additional rigidity to the 1 5/8 x 2 1/8 studs that the lath was attached to?
3) Any suggestions on reducing the impact on the brick wall from expansion/contraction of the 2x4 studs?
Open to removing and redoing wall if needed. Looking for thoughts on how best to achieve insulated wall without damaging the brick.
Pic1: full wall; Pic2: close up of wall; Pic 3: closeup of wood block built into wall.

Strange framing detail. Why would attach the studs to the brick like that? There's no need for it.
Thanks for the response, I agree... I only fastened the 2x4s to the wood bricks as the original 1 5/8 x 2 1/8s were fastened to the wood bricks using nails. Not sure of the original purpose.... I had not seen this before and was hoping someone had experience with a similar setup.

Typically it IS a lifetime gig because when a Pope is elected he's already long of tooth.I wonder why the Pope is bailing. I thought that was a lifetime gig.
At 79 in 2005, Benedict XVI was the oldest pope ever elected.
But I have to hand it to Popa Benny, it takes a great deal of humility to step down from a position like that and admit you aren't a able to run the race like it needs to be run.
You gotta think highly of the guy.
But don't worry, The Catholic Church won't miss a step in helping humanity and we will have a new Pope by Easter.
We've been doing this for thousands of years.
Look for the white puff of smoke from St.Peters,....there's yer sign.

Diet to burn fat
I'm currently in my phase 2 of P90x2 and trying my best to follow the diet to the best of my ability.
Right now, I'm eating ~45% carbs, 25% Protein and 30% Fat daily intake with ~2600 calories
I know I need to be around 20% fat in order to start reducing, but it seems like it's damn impossible. I realize that going out with co-workers and eating lunch (even with it being "healthy" and "light" meals) is killing me.
I'm 6' 1", 177 lbs, 21 yrs old and 15.8% body fat. How much more body fat do I need to shed until I can start seeing an results in abs? I realize that abs are made in the kitchen, but I've really been careful of what I eat and when.
Everything else is starting to form together, but the belly is still there...and frustrating.
Much appreciated.

Chocolate Mousse
Because bittersweet chocolate is high in pure chocolate (at least 35 percent cocoa solids), it's best used when a deep chocolate flavor is called for. It's also a great eating chocolate. Semisweet chocolate, which has more sugar and fewer cocoa solids than bittersweet, can often be substituted in recipes without significantly affecting the flavor or texture.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 6
Photography: Minh + Wass
Source: Everyday Food, December 2003
- 4 large egg yolks
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a medium saucepan, whisk together egg yolks, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 3/4 cup heavy cream. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until mixture coats back of spoon, 3 to 4 minutes (do not boil). Remove from heat; whisk in melted chocolate and vanilla. Strain into a bowl; chill until cool.
With an electric mixer, beat remaining 1 1/4 cups heavy cream with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar until stiff peaks form. Stir 1/3 of whipped cream into cooled custard mixture, then gently fold in the rest with a rubber spatula.
Spoon into serving dishes; chill, covered, at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.

The striker came off the bench to net twice in the final six minutes of a pulsating - and at times ill-tempered clash at the Madejski Stadium - as the visitors paid the price for the early sending-off of defender Zac Thompson.
Playing his first match since January 31, the youngster was sent off by referee Darren Drysdale after just 12 minutes, leaving Leeds to absorb wave after wave of Reading attacks.
Ian Harte's teasing cross evaded everyone before striking a post after 20 minutes while Alex Pearce saw his header cleared en route to goal after the break.
Leeds had their chances to win it late on, with Ross McCormack and Robert Snodgrass going close without success.
Le Fondre thought he had put his side ahead with eight minutes remaining, only to be denied by an offside flag, but he made the most of his next two chances to fire the Royals to the division's summit.
An already feisty atmosphere in front of a near full house intensified early on with the dismissal of Thompson for a wild lunge on Jobi McAnuff.
Reading immediately seized the initiative and the visitors were fortunate to survive a scare in the 20th minute when Harte's vicious cross thumped against keeper Andy Lonergan's left-hand post.
Leeds could easily have been reduced to nine men two minutes later when Danny Pugh's terrible challenge on Jem Karacan went unpunished.
Despite their one-man advantage, the hosts failed to create a chance of any major significance for the remainder of the opening period.
And Leeds looked sharper in the second period with Robert Snodgrass forcing a good save from Adam Federici.
But Reading responded well and Pearce nodded Harte's set-piece onto the roof of the net after 60 minutes.
Leeds were more than happy to soak up the pressure, and their appetite to hit on the break almost paid dividends when McCormack's 20-yard effort rebounded to safety off an upright.
McCormack then teed up Snodgrass 12 yards out but Federici produced a good save, before the former Cardiff man's thunderous free-kick brought a fumble out of the Australian stopper.
At the other end, Pearce's goalbound header was cleared off the line while Le Fondre followed up McAnuff's deflected effort to slide home - only for his celebrations to be cut short by an offside flag.
But with seven minutes remaining, Reading finally found a way through.
Jimmy Kebe's deep cross to the back post was met by Hal Robson-Kanu who sent a delicate header back across goal for Le Fondre to chest home.
Two minutes later Le Fondre completed the job. Again the required finish came from less than two yards out, but the former Rotherham man was on hand to knock in Jason Roberts' cross-shot and spark mass delirium amongst the home supporters.
In the late kick-off,
Kevin Nolan capitalised on an unfortunate ricochet to flick the ball past David Button from close range with only seven minutes on the clock following a corner.
The Tykes were the architects of their own downfall as the visitors were afforded far too much time on the ball throughout.
And it was that lack of pressure on the ball that allowed Nicky Maynard the time and space to pick his spot from outside the box following a neat passing move with a little over twenty minutes gone.
The Hammers, in contrast, put the home side under almost constant pressure.
And that intense pressure - this time applied by Maynard - forced Button into a loose clearance, which Mark Noble collected and from an acute angle chipped over a retreating Barnsley defence to give the visitors a three goal advantage at the interval.
Barnsley made more of a fist of the opening exchanges of the second period but if there were any doubts as to the destination of the points they were firmly extinguished when former Barnsley man Ricardo Vaz Te tapped in from close range after a good run and shot from George McCartney.
The scoreline would have had an extra gloss if Maynard had managed to add to his tally, but first the crossbar and then the assistant referee's flag were to deny the former Bristol City man.
It was to matter little however as the Hammers will go into Monday's crunch clash with Birmingham in buoyant mood after a very professional performance.
The first was a strike of some quality, picking up the ball near the halfway line before slaloming past a number of flailing Watford challenges and then toe-poking past Tomasz Kuszczak in the home goal.
