Winter Journal
Paul Auster
Faber & Faber, $29.99
Sixty-four hardly seems that old now, but for Paul Auster, sitting down to write through a bitter New York winter, it feels like a threshold crossed. He has arrived at the beginning of life's last act. So, 30 years after he wrote his first memoir - and first book - The Invention of Solitude, the novelist embarks on a second unconventional self-portrait, one that will be a kind of reckoning, of the past and of the person he has been: "You would like to know who you are."
Who Auster is turns out to have little to do with his career as a celebrated novelist, and nothing to do with nostalgia.
One thing the years have taught him is that "the Now and the Then are essentially the same". Searching for more intimate truths, Winter Journal is a candid and sensuous flow of memory fragments linked to the traces life has left on Auster's body.
His scars and hacking cough are like index entries that send him flipping back to the physical sensations of boyhood, with its neighbourhood baseball games and broken bones, to student hovels, the discovery of sex, marriages, travels and revelations. But it's all framed by an awareness of approaching old age. The book's last line, "You have entered the winter of your life'', circles back to tap the shoulder of the first: "You think it will never happen to you."
This associative reverie is more artfully constructed than it first appears. It's not by chance, for instance, that the account of the death of Auster's mother in 2002 occupies the book's physical, as well as emotional, centre. The Invention of Solitude described the murder of Auster's grandfather by his grandmother, and the aftershock of his father's death.
Death is a recurring preoccupation here, too, from the childhood memory of the boy who "was struck and killed by lightning, the boy whose dead body you sat next to and watched over for the next hour in a rain-drenched meadow", to the looming mortality of friends that is increasingly top of mind. "So many of them are gone already - but just wait for the deluge that is coming."
It's odd, this second-person address, even if it's a classic Auster complication: you're not sure if you're being spoken to, or merely witnessing an author haranguing himself in the mirror. When Auster's listing all the places he's lived, or all the tins of soup he's consumed, it's tempting to leave him to it. But, more often, the technique feels like an invitation to a trance-like intimacy in which you can relive Auster's past as if it were your own.
It doesn't take much persuading. There's Auster's sheer storytelling skill for a start, his renowned right hook. But it's his hard honesty and refusal to look away from the ugly and frightening that makes Winter Journal such a powerful, and sometimes quite beautiful, book. It may be winter, but there's warmth here, too, in the pleasure Auster takes in the richness of ordinary experience and his gratitude for how much of it there has been.

Playful dog won't play with new rescue dog... :( :(
Well, I guess these things happen, but it's so heartbreaking and I am hoping there is something that can help. I need some advice please.
The short version: I adopted a rescue dog 2 days ago and he seems to be resource guarding and not vibing with my playful dog. The worst part is that my playful dog is now a bbit sullen, depressed, and drops toys and defers to this dog. Playtime and toys are my dog's bread and butter. He will instantly play with me, my beagle, the dogs at the park, but he will drop the toy with the new rescue dog. This is the first time I am seeing this. I got them to share a tug toy if I hold onto it, but if I stop, so does my dog. They seem indifferent and not at all buddies...more details below.
The long version: I have 2 rescue dogs, one is a wise and happy Beagle who recently became blind due to her diabetes. The other is a super playful, extremely social Spitz/Sheltie. Well, my Beagle is older and slowing down, but still enjoying her golden years. She cant keep up with my Sheltie and he is crazy for a buddy. So, we thought if my beagle approved/responded well to another dog, it would be time to get a my Sheltie a playtime buddy.
A local rescue had a pom mix who looked really happy. He is maybe a 1 year old, roaming the streets, they neutered him, and put him in a foster/doggy daycare. I think he was in foster/daycare for a week?
On Friday, 2 days ago, they brought him over and it was love at first sight for us, he was so cuddly, loves to snuggle. My blind beagle didn't growl or mind this guy at all. They were great! He seemed OK with my Sheltie too. They even ran around the yard together. I don't know what happened after that, but we adopted this pup and within hours, he bonded to us and not our Sheltie. My Sheltie tried to kiss him, but he would turn away or get up and leave. Then my Sheltie did not want to touch any of the toys that the pom picked up. I guess my Sheltie could read his signals/cues.
Well, he was right because next thing you know, this dog is resource guarding everything- toys, food, chews. It's sad because this dog is a cutie and he is so good with us and my Beagle likes him, but he is starting to cause changes in my Sheltie's personality. There are no fights, but no real positive vibes either. My Sheltie will pick up a toy and play with it, then the pom approaches, takes it, and lays with it enjoying it until I take it. My Sheltie will not want to play with this toy again unless I take it and make a huge deal of how fun it will be. My Sheltie will resume playing with me, but he will instantly walk away when the other dog bites the toy. I was able to get them to play tug of war when I hold the tug too, but once I stop, so does my Sheltie. This is sad. Then, the pom brings the toy over to me to play with him. So...He and my Sheltie are pretty indifferent to each other. They get along, but they are not playmates and I suspect it has to do with the signal cues and behavior that this guy is showing. We brought him to the dog park an he just kept to himself.
I dont think he had any temperment testing, he is worse with food. Way worse. Instead of being aggressive with my dogs, I dont give him the opportunity. I feed everyone meals separately and he is a bit aggressive to me. He has responded well to me taking away his after-dinner bully stick and getting it back when he sits/waits. He had made great strides with that in just a day. This guy is emaciated and looks like he was starved. I don't think he was fed well in foster care either, but he was treated for parasites so maybe that has something to do with it. I can work with food aggression.. I was able to deal with my beagle and teach her, but it's not easy. The rescue is skirting the issues and recommending that I walk the dogs together 5 times per day and squirt his bum with water, then his body during the problems. Yea....no.
I guess these problems are probably related to my Sheltie not being into him? Please help, I want to work with this guy, but I dont know if he is the right buddy for my Sheltie even if he is the right buddy for me. So hard, my family loves him and has bonded with him. I mean, he snuggles and cuddles, loves to play catch, etc. etc. I love him.
Is there anything I can do to get them to enjoy toys together???? This is my Sheltie's bread and butter. He loves playtime. So, seeing him do this is hard for me since this was a buddy for him. I could deal with everything else and I can really work on the food aggression, but the vibes with the toys is sad. M
One big burning question.... maybe I could foster a happy, playful high energy dog and see if that can help change the dynamic with the toys??? I dont know what to do here. I was looking for a high energy dog to compliment my Sheltie....but I didnt get that and my Sheltie seems depressed. So thankful for any help!

Welcome, thank you for rescuing your pups. Now I am by no means an expert in any of this. When I brought home a second rescue dog I had no issues with the two of them. Lucky me. That said, my young pup always took the toys away from our 3 year old dog, always!! The older dog just allowed it. It stayed that way for life. Halo owned all the toys, Shadow had none. It worked for them, but Shadow was the alpha dog without question.
How old is your Sheltie? To be honest I think two days is a very short time and it may take much longer than that to have the dogs bond. Your Sheltie is probably still hoping the new dog will go away. I know one of our members here said her two dogs took months to bond and then they were inseperable.
I think it's very important for you to involve your Sheltie as much as possible. You want to make sure the Sheltie still feels like the alpha dog.
I'm sure other will be around to give you great advice, but I really think it may just take a bit longer. Is the rescue willing to take the Pom back if you decide it won't work out. I hope so. Good luck to you, patience.
Poms are super smart and FULL of personality! They can be forceful, opinionated and feisty, in addition to affectionate and playful. This little guy was starving - of course he might have some resource guarding issues with food and even toys. He hasn't had anyone take the time to teach him how to live in a group in harmony.
Your Sheltie is highly sensitive and the littlest snark from the Pom and he is keeping himself in check so he doesn't get snapped at again by the Pom. The Pom is now in charge of the Sheltie and the Sheltie is minding his manners according to the Poms rules. Yes, it is not fun to watch because you know your Sheltie would much rather be his normal relaxed self.
So think of it as your adopted a teenage child who is trying to claim the home from your own children by pushing and shoving, stealing their things, getting nasty at meals. Would you permit it and hope it changes? or would you step right up and make it clear that this is YOUR home and you set the rules and you will not tolerate bad manners. You aren't ousting the new family member, you are giving them every opportunity to learn to get along. If the new member argues or doesn't comply then you might have to make your point more often and more clearly until he gets the picture. Trust me Poms are super smart and really do want to please.
You would do well to start some basic obedience drills. Sit, down, stay, leave it, release. These basics give you a means of communication so you can guide him through his decisions.
Then set him up for the very situations he has trouble with. Put him on the leash so you have a means of control and communication while you are teaching. Teach him to sit and wait patiently for his meal. He needs to look to you and be calm before he gets released to his food. It is also good to stand in front of him with his food bowl and when he makes eye contact you can lower the bowl to him. Keep your hands on it. After he gets a bite or two then say 'enough' and lift the bowl straight up and out of range. When he gets calm and looks at you then repeat. Do this until the food is gone. He needs to understand that you control the food, he will get his fair share, but he must have manners. This will evolve to having the bowl on the ground and you are able to step in and pick it up at any time without him getting worried. The leash is there to stop him in case he goes to protect the food.
Then you have to move on to teaching him not to covet things from other dogs. The basic message is that all things belong to you and he gets them when he has good manners and he is never permitted to snark at other dogs for anything.
We have games that you can play to teach all of this and are happy to help.
Be sure you have lots of toys out so if he covets most of them your other dog still has plenty. And you less are likely to have issues if there are more toys than they need, so it is tough to get freaky about 30 toys instead of just one or two.
Please feel free to call (7 days/wk - 9am -pm Colorado time), as it will be easier to chat then to write a small book.
Just so you know we don't do 'treat based' training nor do we use devices. We are all about love, trust and respect taught through a big vocabulary and great drills.
Love Them & Lead Them,

Dog Training the Way Nature Intended
Tenderfood I sure wish you lived here in BC!
I would wait until the dog is at a healthy weight before you start doing work on the RG. At this point, when he's still starving, I think it's a little unrealistic to try to make significant behavioral changes, and they may diminish anyway when he reaches a healthy weight. Training cannot mitigate illness, and right now I think you should treat him as a sick animal.
I think practicing self-control exercises is a good idea, but it's going to take a few weeks for the dogs to sort themselves out, and for you to start seeing this little guy's true personality. I think it's totally understandable for an animal who was living on the streets and starving that has suddenly been given all of this safety and abundance to be possessive of it. It may be a product of the situation, not really who he fundamentally is.
Make time for all of the dogs individually for training, play, and affection. Make sure your sheltie has a chill-out space where they can get away from the new addition. While you are in training, I would also remove temptation and not let the dogs have access to any objects the pom will guard without supervision. That way, when you want to start your counter-conditioning program, you will have total control of the situation and not set the pom up to fail by letting him repeat the behavior unchecked.
In case you haven't found it in your travels, this is one of the best books on RG out there.
Good advice!
Just be sure that these bad behaviors are NOT being reinforced and learned as behaviors that work.
Yes, he is not himself as long as he is skinny - but you aren't starving him anymore. He is going to get fed a good amount of food, so good manners still apply.
Love Them & Lead Them,

At 85, Johnnie Mae Young will become the oldest living female to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this Saturday. However, do not expect her to slow down anytime soon.
Recently, SLAM! Wrestling caught up with Young via telephone from her home in Columbia, South Carolina to discuss her career and upcoming induction. Young exuded a youthful vigor and enthusiasm when discussing the business she has been a part of for so many years.
"It's the greatest thing on earth to me," said a heartfelt Young, already a member of the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame (Class of 2004). "It's the highest spot in my life. I'm so happy about it. There's no better honor I could ever receive than from WWE because they are the greatest.
"I live to wrestle for the fans because they keep me going," continued Young. "I'm 85 years old, and I still plan on wrestling when I'm a hundred. I look forward to seeing all of the fans. When I look out from the ring and see the fans cheering, hollering, booing, whatever; it's always exciting to me."
Young was born on March 12, 1923 in Sand Springs, Oklahoma. She was an amateur wrestler for her high school wrestling team thanks in part to her sibling.
"My brother and I went to school together, and he was on the boys' amateur wrestling team," explained Young. "He taught me all of the amateur wrestling holds so I was a good wrestler. When we went to school, he would go down the street and say, 'I bet my sister could whip you.' So, I was wrestling all of my life."
Her introduction into the wide world of professional wrestling was somewhat brash, yet effective to say the least when she made an open challenge against the world women's champion.
"When they brought Mildred Burke to Tulsa to wrestle a girl by the name of Gladys 'Kill 'Em' Gillem, I caught a streetcar and went over and challenged Mildred Burke because she was the world's champion," recalled Young. "Billy Wolfe and Sam Avey, the promoter, told me, 'You can't wrestle the champion, there's no way.' The next day Billy Wolfe brought a girl by the name of Elvira Snodgrass and Gladys 'Kill 'Em' Gillem over to my high school.
"In the gym, I shot with Gladys and beat her within seconds," continued Young. "Then, I shot with Elvira, and I beat her in seconds. Billy Wolfe then said, 'Well, I might make a girl wrestler out of you.' He smartened me up and said you gotta go with the flow."
Being a female wrestler was not exactly an easy road to travel especially considering the lack of acceptance from her male counterparts.
"Back during the time I started wrestling, they didn't like to see girls in the ring," recalled Young. "Ed 'Strangler' Lewis told me, 'Women belong in the kitchen and not in the ring. I don't like women wrestling but if there ever was someone born to be a wrestler, you're it.' That's the greatest compliment I ever received because that was what I was born to do. That's the only thing I breathe and think about. I go to sleep thinking about wrestling, I love the business."
As mentioned in the March 6 edition of Jim Ross' Superstar of the Week blog, Young was wrestling in Memphis on December 7, 1941 when she heard Pearl Harbor had been bombed by Japanese aircraft, which led to the United States officially entering World War II.
Young would go on to hold the U.S. Women's Championship and grappled around the globe for a number of promoters while breaking down barriers for women's wrestling.
"I was one of the first girls in Canada," stated Young. "Mildred Burke and I were the first girls to work in Canada for Stu Hart. Mildred Burke and I opened up Canada for girl wrestling. That's been back around 1941 or 1942. I don't remember the exact date because it's been so many years ago, but we worked for Stu Hart, in Montreal, and all over Canada."
When it comes to promoters, however, Young is no stranger to working for the McMahon family. "I was the first girl to wrestle for Vince McMahon Sr. when he bought out Washington, D.C. and Joe Turner's Arena," said Young. "He and Toots Mondt promoted wrestling at the Turner Arena. I was the first girl over there to wrestle for him. At that time, Lillian Ellison started booking girls. Of course, I taught Lil to wrestle. Vince asked me, 'What do you think about about Lillian Ellison and the girls?' I said, 'Vince, I think it would be the greatest thing in the world for you to get her and her girls.' Of course, Lillian would go on to become known as The Fabulous Moolah."
Young also shared her thoughts with SLAM! Wrestling about how the business has changed over the decades. "When I first started, we wrestled two out of three falls matches and to small crowds. It's no comparison to what they do today. I enjoy it more and make more money than I ever did in my life. I thank Vince McMahon for that because he is the one that has brought wrestling to this level. I like showmanship. There's not as much wrestling as there used to be, but it's showmanship and they have to have ability to be in there. I'm just blessed to still be a part of this business because I was in it when it was really rough and tough."
"Lillian will be there with me although she will not be there in person, her spirit will be right beside me because her and I have always been friends, honey," explained Young. "I know that she would be happy for me to be there, and she will be right there cheering me on saying, 'Okay, do it, John!' Her and I made a pact two or three years ago that we would both be wrestling when we were a hundred years old. I am going to carry it out."
Just how serious is she about wrestling more matches? "We have a ring here, and I was just out in the ring a while ago doing a little exercise. I want to make sure I am in good shape in case I'm called to wrestle. Stephanie McMahon has promised me that when [her daughter] Aurora Rose is 17, she will challenge me for a match. I said that's the greatest thing I ever heard."

Grammy Best Dressed Part 2: Nicole Kidman
Holy f-ck this dress. Few could do justice to this dress. My shorty dumpy ass would sh-t all over this dress, a total waste. Gran can. And Gran did. I almost wonder why she didn't save it for the Oscars. Or maybe she's planning something much better? See I say this and I jinx it.
Last night, it was the best Nicole Kidman's looked in a long time. Maybe it's ever since she admitted to the Botox. Maybe it's like we all feel when we finally come clean about a lie we've been holding and suddenly, life seems so much less…toxic? I know it was like this when I was younger and lied to my ma. About who I played with at the park. About how I spent my money. About what happened to the 20 in her purse. She'd let me go with my dishonesty knowing that eventually, and it wouldn't take long, I'd confess myself because she ingrained in me a hidden fear of the consequences of lying that I still carry around. Psychological warfare parenting is so underrated. You combine that with superstition and, well, suffice to say it worked on me.
I think maybe Nicole's third lip is deflating too. She's f-cked around with it for so long though it takes a while for that sh-t to let go of its bulge. Not sure if it'll ever be the same.
Last night's showing was impressive. And she was so f-cking cute singing along to Teenage Dream, right? Calculated or not, this is the side of Nicole Kidman I wouldn't mind seeing more of. Click here to watch.

|New Clinical Trial First to Evaluate Effectiveness of CRT-P in Symptomatic Heart Failure Patients with Mild-to-Moderate Structural Heart Disease
Medtronic-Sponsored Study Aims to Support Worldwide Indication Expansion for CRT-P in a Significantly Underserved Heart Failure Patient Population
MINNEAPOLIS – Jan. 10, 2013 – Medtronic, Inc. (NYSE: MDT) today announced the first patient enrollment in MIRACLE EF, a global clinical trial that will evaluate the effectiveness of cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers (CRT-Ps) in delaying the progression of heart failure in symptomatic patients with mildly reduced heart pumping function. This large study will be the first to evaluate CRT-P in a widely underserved patient group – those who have a slightly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in the range of 36 to 50 percent, which means that their hearts work somewhat more efficiently than heart failure patients who are currently indicated for implanted device therapy because of their lower LVEF.
The CRT-P devices used in MIRACLE EF are not approved by the FDA for the patient population being studied. Edward Schloss, M.D., FACC, performed the first implant at The Christ Hospital's Lindner Research Center in Cincinnati; primary investigator for the site is Greg Egnaczyk, M.D., Ph.D., FACC.
"Previous studies have proven the real-world therapeutic benefits of CRT in treating mildly to severely symptomatic heart failure patients with moderately to severely reduced cardiac pumping capacity and electrical dyssynchrony," said Professor Cecilia Linde, M.D., Ph.D., of Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, and worldwide principal investigator in the trial. "Through this large global study we hope to further our research on the overall effectiveness of CRT-P by showing its benefit in treating patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure symptoms, but with milder impairment of heart pumping capacity than previously studied."
Approximately 275 centers throughout the world, in regions including the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan and developing markets, will enroll up to 2,300 patients who will receive a Medtronic Consulta® CRT-P in this prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled trial. Patients will be followed for at least two years or until close of the study. Medtronic anticipates the trial will take four to five years to complete. The effectiveness of CRT-P in this patient population will be assessed using a composite endpoint of time to first event, defined as all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization.
"We are hopeful that, when completed, MIRACLE EF will influence clinical practice guidelines regarding the use of advanced cardiac resynchronization devices and potentially lead to another expanded indication for Medtronic CRT devices," said David Steinhaus, M.D., vice president and general manager, Heart Failure, and medical director for the Cardiac Rhythm Disease Management business at Medtronic. "We look forward to the positive implications these findings could have on heart failure patients whose disease is less pronounced, yet who still experience symptoms and need advanced therapeutic solutions."
In collaboration with leading clinicians, researchers and scientists, Medtronic offers the broadest range of innovative medical technology for the interventional and surgical treatment of cardiovascular disease and cardiac arrhythmias. The company strives to offer products and services that deliver clinical and economic value to healthcare consumers and providers worldwide.

Stayed at the Gables over Presidents Day Weekend for some of the best skiing we've seen in years. The Gables was the perfect setting with a fire each night in both the sitting room and one in the stove as well. We were able to walk to two restaurants in town and understand that the one located right next door is expanding to include a full bar come summertime, can't wait! as the food there is superb. Alecia and Christina are so helpful and charming. Our room was spacious and comfortable and it is terrific that there is both wifi and tvs in the rooms not that you really need them, but its nice to know they are there. Overall, this is the best kept secret of all as its not a busy place and the innkeepers remember you from visit to visit.

Spent a quiet weekend in November at the Gables which was already decorated for Christmas. It really got us in a festive spirit. We actually went ahead to the local tree farm and harvested a tree for ourselves to take home. Spent two memorable evenings chatting with Christina and Alecia in front of the fire sipping complimentary wine and getting to know local history. We'll be back when the snow flies!

We spent a relaxing summer weekend with Christina and Alecia in the White Mountains. They were excellent hostesses with thorough knowledge of the area including the restaurants, which ones needed reservations, which ones took credit cards, which ones were cash only, etc. Also, they were terrific tour guides. We booked the least expensive room available which has the bathroom outside the room which we were a little bit hesitant to do as we had never done this before, but we didn't mind it at all! The room was very comfortable, and the mattress was terrific, we slept like rocks. We were able to peek into two of the other larger rooms before we left, and they were lovely as well, so next visit we may upgrade to something else, but we wouldn't hesitate to take this room again either. It was also nice to have the option of both the ceiling fan and the air conditioning should we have needed it, but the ceiling fan was sufficient, and we had a nice time sitting on the porch as this particular room has a balcony overlooking the pool area. Our only regret was that we weren't able to arrive in time to eat dinner Friday night and attend the live concert at the Colonial Theater which is located right across the street from the bed and breakfast, from the sounds that were coming from it they were having a rocking good time! Maybe on our next visit we will be able to skip work and make it a three day weekend. Good times!

My husband and I stayed one night in the Water Lily Room at the Gables. We appreciated how beautiful the house was and how clean the room and bathroom was. If you are looking for a place to stay where you're not bothered much by the innkeeper, this is the place. We did not have much interaction except for letting us into the house and at breakfast, and we were a little put off when the innkeeper was relieved we eat eggs since we noted we were vegetarian. The room's AC helped keep it decently comfortable, but the second floor was very warm, which was uncomfortable for a summer day.The breakfast was enjoyable, but nothing outstanding. Although there is a pool, it was very unclear to us if we could use it and was never mentioned when we were let into the home. In fact, hardly anything was shared with us except that breakfast was at 9:00. Breakfast was the only time we really had any conversation with the innkeepers, and it wasn't until the end of breakfast that they opened up.

We were pleasantly surprised to find this gem in the White Mountains with an in-ground heated pool. The water temperature was a comfortable 86 degrees and we spent an enjoyable afternoon lounging in the summer sun. We know the season is short up here to enjoy the pool, but it is open from Memorial Day till after Labor Day as Christina and Alecia have solar panels and a solar blanket keeping this delightful resource warm. The bed and breakfast itself was superb as well, with terrific hospitality and a hearty country breakfast. You can't beat the location for walking to the Village restaurants!

We stayed at the Gables for a quiet, romantic weekend away from home and were pleasantly surprised by all that Christina and Alecia had to offer. From the moment we arrived they were knowledgeable about the area and helped us to make plans for dinner both nights. Breakfast was a pleasant surprise as we had a different choice each morning which was delicious and nice as my husband and I have differing tastes in breakfast foods. We can't wait to come back when it is a little warmer outside and take advantage of the lovely heated pool. The room was very comfortable and we can't say enough about this truly great find in the White Mountains.

text: Tried and True Marketing April 4, 2012 06:41 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Fran Howard AgWeb Contributing Writer Email Tips to take the emotion out of marketing Raw emotions—typically fear and greed—can interfere with the principles of marketing. Volatility worsens the situation. To help smooth out the ups and downs, keep the following tips in mind when marketing this year's crop. Remain Flexible. Today's attractive prices offer corn and soybean growers an opportunity to lock in a floor for their expected 2012 production. But they need to remain as flexible as possible between now and harvest so they can take advantage of any potential upside, says Brian Basting of Advance Trading in Bloomington, Ill. Purchasing put options as part of an overall mix when pricing this year's crop is a great strategy. Put options can be used in combination with other strategies, including forward sales or hedge-to-arrive contracts. For example, a producer might want to utilize a hedge-to-arrive contract on 20% to 30% and put options on the remaining 70% to 80% of anticipated production. The exact mix of strategies will depend on a producer's risk tolerance. Understand Your Risk. Once you know your risk, learn how to underwrite or sell options to gather in the premiums, says Jim Bower of Bower Trading in Lafayette, Ind. This strategy has offered his highest percentage of winning trades by far, he adds. At current price levels, producers can be more aggressive because they have cash inventory on hand. Prepare for Shockers. Be ready to be "shocked" by a report. Have some type of risk management in place prior to the release of a major crop report—especially one that follows an extended price move, either up or down, suggests Ashley Gulke Leavitt of Gulke Group, Chicago. June's quarterly stocks and planted acreage reports have historically signaled the top in markets. Likewise, this past December's World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report was the beginning of the market turnaround. It is often more important to note how a market closes on the day a major report is released than what's in the report itself. This year's remaining WASDE reports will be released on April 10, May 10, June 12, July 11, Aug. 10, Sept. 12, Oct. 11, Nov. 9 and Dec. 11. Additional stocks reports will be released on June 29 and Sept. 28. Pay Attention to Price Spreads. Watch the May–July corn price spread, says Gregg Hunt of Archer Financial Services, Chicago. When the May contract is priced higher than the July contract—which is called an inverted market, indicating tight supplies—it's a very bullish sign. When the spread inverts, hold off sales. The function of the spread is to go higher to draw out cash movement. When the May contract dips below the July price, the market has done its job and that's a signal that producers should sell their crop. The last time the May corn contract was priced higher than July—about 20¢ higher—was in 1996, when rationing kept the U.S. from running out of corn. Stick to a Plan. With volatile markets, producers tend to get oversold. Even though prices look good now, there's a chance they could run quite a bit higher if the market senses extreme weather conditions during the U.S. growing season, which could be a painful experience for a producer who is oversold, says Kevin Van Trump of Farm Direction, Kansas City. Have a marketing plan and stick to it. Completing between 30% to 50% of that plan by the time the season starts is prudent advice. Back to news

Bangkok Hospital Group launched a project to integrate and centralize its electronic medical records with IBM Power Systems in an effort to improve services by providing the most convenient and effective care. The new system will manage and interconnect the medical records to other hospitals in the network, offering patients a "one-stop" registration, along with quicker and more convenient services.
In addition to improved efficiency in patient records and tracking, the group of hospitals will also upgrade its financial and business management system with IBM Cognos TM1, which provides intelligent financial analytics capabilities. The software will connect hospital data and analyze statistics to help executives make precise investment decisions that will truly meet patients' needs.
Dr. Chatree Duangnet, Chief Executive Officer of Bangkok Hospital Medical Center, stated: "Throughout our 37 years of operation we have sought to provide medical services that match the highest international standards, employing the most appropriate and up-to-date practices and technology in all fields of medicine. With IBM, we are able to offer an effective treatment analysis faster than before, and with more convenient services. The systematic and integrated data system will be of great benefit for medical research, paving the way for Bangkok Hospital Group to set a new standard of Smarter Healthcare in Thailand."
Veerasak Kritsanapraphan, Chief Information Executive, Bangkok Hospital Group, added: "The IT development projects with IBM greatly benefits both patients and doctors. From now on patients of Bangkok Hospital and 17 other centres in the group can experience a single, hassle-free registration process, while doctors can instantly track patient medical history. To support our business expansion, we also adopted IBM software to help the hospital improve its financial performance management with 'what-if' modelling capabilities for more effective business planning. This technology will help executives meet clients' needs and bring greater returns."
According to Thanwa Laohasiriwong, Country General Manager, IBM Thailand Co. Ltd., "Bangkok Hospital Group is a great example of an organisation applying IT systems for service excellence and effective management. In a business which is all about making people feel confident of the treatment they are receiving, our technology and innovation, together with our highly experienced and skillful support team will help Bangkok Hospital Group achieving its future business goals."
IBM works with clients around the world to create smarter health care systems. This includes better integrated data so doctors, patients and insurers can share information seamlessly and efficiently; moving away from paper records in order to reduce medical errors and improve efficiencies; and applying advanced analytics to vast amounts of data to improve medical research, diagnosis and treatment.
Bangkok Hospital Group, under the management of Bangkok Dusit Vejchakarn Public Company Limited, has been a major private hospital group operating under "Bangkok Hospital" name since 1972. The group provides full medical services to Thai and international patients from 17 centres throughout the country including Bangkok Hospital, Samitivej Hospital and Bangkok Nursing Home (BNH). The group has invested in IT development projects and has received the ISO 9002 & 9001:2000 accreditation and Hospital Accreditation by the Ministry of Public Health of Thailand.
Bangkok Hospital itself has been granted the accreditation for international quality health care services and management system, quality and safety control, high standard management and Disease-Specific Care Certifications from the Joint Commission International (JCI), the world's largest accreditor of health care organisations in the United States. The group also received the accreditation from the Telemedicine for the Mobile Society (TEMOS), the network for quality in medical care in Germany. Bangkok Hospital Group has invested in the medical care through multi-disciplinary teams of highly trained specialists and high technology diagnostic and treatment facilities. With the continuous development, the group is ranked as the top medical service provider in Southeast Asia.

I hope Rachael Ray is sitting down when she picks up this issue of The National Enquirer. The tab is claiming (I know, I know ... ) that her husband, John Cusimano, is a frequent visitor to a Manhattan swingers' club. And I don't mean a club where they have swings, if you catch my meaning.
The source claims that Mr. Ray has been in the club at least six times -- each time without his wife -- even after they were married. Ewww.
The club, called Checkmate, is apparently a place for "youngish, attractive, vibrant, hip, fit, and well-dressed" men and women to, um, well, do whatever these types do when they're in a club with beds that can accommodate multiple people. Did I say Ewww already?
The source says that after John was finished "romping" with the lassies, he'd stop by the club's buffet and pick up a few bagels. So maybe he was just hungry?
Rachael's publicist told The Daily Mail that the star doesn't comment on stories from the The National Enquirer. Really? You wouldn't comment on a story like this. Not even to say, "Hells no"?
If this is even remotely true, then I think a lot of people are just going to assume that Rachael must know about her husband's extracurricular activities. Trust me when I say that spouses can lead secret double lives and you can easily be none the wiser. I know this from my own ex, who was secretly gay. And I know this from watching Who the Bleep Did I Marry? Ever seen that show? Shudder.
Look, it's impossible to follow around someone 24/7. Plus, celebrity chef Rachael is a hard-working gal. She's got other stuff to do. We'd all like to think our spouse will give off clear as day "signs" that they're up to no good, but this is just a polite fiction we comfort ourselves with, not wanting to believe it could happen to us.
If any of this is true, and Rachael was clueless, I truly feel for her. She's been married eight years and must have assumed that she knew her husband well.
Have you ever been fooled by a spouse? Do you believe this rumor?

is OpenGL and MPW possible with the standard OpenGL SK, and how easy would it be to set-up (would it just be a case of additional search paths?)

I used MPW and opengl together for a long time and never had much problems. It's just a matter of including the right headers and linking against the opengl libs.
GLUT on the other hand was a pain to get working so I never really bothered.

Billing and Salvesen Win 11 of 12 Races
BOSTON, Mass. – The No. 1 Yale women's sailing team won the President's Trophy by a comfortable 49-point margin this weekend. Boston University hosted the 17-school regatta on the Charles River in strong and shifty winds. 12 races were completed in both A and B division.
The Bulldogs were led to victory by senior skipper Emily Billing and junior crew Amanda Salvesen who won B division by 48 points. This duo managed to win all but one of their 12 races, a feat which is nearly unheard of in collegiate sailing. It is even more impressive when considering the fact that the wind came from very unstable directions on both days.
Saturday saw "a fluky northwesterly breeze ranging from 10 to 20 knots with gusts above 20," according to the official regatta report. Sunday's racing started in "a moderate, but shifty, southerly" and finished in winds gusting over 20 knots again.
Billing attributed their success to being able to anticipate what the wind was going to do next "since it was shifting all over the course." "Knowing what the next shift was and what gate mark to round" were very important, she said.
Senior skipper Claire Dennis and freshman crew Charlotte Belling also helped the Bulldogs to run away with the regatta win by finishing first in A division. They finished first or second in half of their races and only finished outside of the top five three times.
After struggling a little in unsteady winds last weekend, the Bulldogs must be satisfied with how tremendously they improved that part of their game this weekend.
There is just one more regatta for the Yale women's sailing team between now and the New England Championships. Next weekend they will race on the Thames River in New London, Conn., another commonly shifty venue and on the weekend after that they will race for a berth at the 2013 ICSA Women's National Championship.

The world's human population is expected to top seven billion by April 2012. Of all the burdens this growing population places on the planet's resources, none is more critical than the pressure on the world's fresh water supplies. Just 2.5 percent of Earth's water is fresh water, and much of that is frozen and unavailable to terrestrial life.
Developing solutions to the problem of meeting the growing need for clean water that are socially acceptable, economically viable and environmentally sustainable is the focus of the new interdisciplinary graduate program in water science and policy at the University of Delaware, which welcomes its first students this fall.
The new program will offer a master of science degree and doctoral degrees with either a water science or a water policy concentration. The curriculum draws on courses from four colleges at UD: the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, the College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment, the College of Engineering, and the College of Arts and Sciences.
Students in the University-wide program will be advised by any of the 30 or so faculty affiliated with the program. The program will be housed in College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and will be directed by Shreeram Inamdar, associate professor of watershed hydrology.
"We have a really top-notch cadre of faculty representing many disciplines, including hydrology, geology, geography, ecology, climatology, microbiology, plant and soil sciences, environmental chemistry, engineering, resource economics and public policy," Inamdar said. "We may approach the problem of water from different perspectives, but we share a common goal of better understanding, protecting and managing our precious water resources. The beauty of this program is it provides students greater flexibility in shaping their curriculum and greater opportunities to collaborate with faculty from diverse disciplines and departments."
The new program was initiated under the auspices of the Delaware Environmental Institute (DENIN), where staff members Jeanette Miller and Amy Broadhurst helped to coordinate the diverse group of interested faculty and the necessary paperwork and approval process to launch the program.
A new website has been created to provide prospective students with information about the program. According to Inamdar, there are two new research assistantships available immediately to students in the program whose adviser has a primary appointment in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
"Students who graduate from this program will be able to pursue exciting career opportunities in academia, governmental and nongovernmental agencies, close to home or around the world," said Inamdar. "The demand for clean, healthy water is going to be very high in the coming century, and so will the demand for our graduates' expertise."

I Really Don't Care What This Guy Thinks
Hi Joe!
So heres the total, deal my best friend and I are in different school and different time zones. This is not an issue, the issue is whenever we chat, wheter its AIM or on the phone, he ALWAYS tells me what his friend James thinks about what I am doing/say/whatever. and I really don't care what this guy thinks cause its never important. I've told him many times I don't care what James has to say. how do i get him to shut about it.
Hi Chris!
It is obvious that your friend and this James character are dating. Stop being so judgemental. Let their relationship blossom, despite whether or not they'll be able to get married.
Thanks for writing. This was Joe College saying, "At least you won't have to rent a tux."

"A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand"
June 4, 2010 by Judy Trull
So I thought today I would bake some cookies that I had baked last year that had another one of my favorite ingredients…candied ginger. Of course, and maybe some of you can relate to this, I couldn't and still can't find that particular recipe. You would think I would learn to put them into some sort of binder, my favorite recipes that is, but alas no. However I digress. So I googled Oatmeal Ginger cookies and after some perusing, came up with a recipe that I thought would suffice, and I got to work. This recipe is just my version of several that I saw on the web, however I added a few things I thought would really take these cookies to a higher plain.

David Petraeus told Congress Friday in closed hearings that the CIA believed from the start that the September 11 attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi were by terrorists. That leaves one VIP who's still missing from Congressional scrutiny: Hillary Clinton. GOP Congressman Peter King said Mr. Petraeus's testimony differed from what the former CIA director told Congress immediately after the attacks. Mr. King, also said Mr. Petraeus said that the CIA's original talking points on the attacks were edited. The altered version became the basis for U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice's misleading and now infamous comments blaming the attacks on a YouTube video. Both that discrepancy and the issue of the altered talking points need further digging, especially if Ms. Rice is nominated to be the next Secretary of State. But Mr. Petraeus wasn't responsible for lax consulate security or the U.S. policy that led to the Libya debacle. That's Mrs. Clinton's bailiwick. Last month in interviews from deepest Peru. the Secretary of State said "I take responsibility" for Benghazi. UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05796884 Date: 01/07/2016 Except she hasn't. She was conveniently out of the country for this week's House Foreign Affairs hearing, and Senate Foreign Relations Chairman John Kerry refuses to hold any hearings on Benghazi. His loyalty may get him a cabinet job, while Carl Levin's Armed Services Committee also pretends nothing much happened in Libya. The targets of the attacks and its first victims were diplomats. Chris Stevens died of smoke inhalation in the blaze, becoming the first American ambassador killed in the line of duty in over 30 years. A junior colleague also died. These men were Mrs. Clinton's "responsibility." Several hours after the assault on the consulate, members of the jihadist militia Ansar al-Shari.ah turned on the CIA compound about a mile away, killing two of Mr. Petraeus's men. In Congressional hearings last month, career State officials admitted that threat warnings from Benghazi were overlooked and requests for better security turned down. They said Foggy Bottom misjudged the ability of a weak Libyan state to protect them. It's not clear how high up the chain these concerns went, but over to you, Mrs. Clinton. For over a week after the attacks. the Administration blamed the YouTube video. Mrs. Clinton didn't push this misleading narrative in public as enthusiastically as Ms. Rice. Still, she bought into it. The father of Tyrone Woods, a CIA contractor who was killed in Benghazi, told media outlets last month that Mrs. Clinton tried to comfort him by promising that the U.S.-based maker of the video would be "prosecuted and arrested"—though terrorists killed his son. Beyond the Benghazi attacks is the larger issue of the Administration's Libya policy, a failure that Mrs. Clinton should also answer for. At the start of the Libya uprising, Washington hid behind the U.N. Security Council to resist calls for intervention. Mrs. Clinton's department then made the mistake of agreeing to a U.N. arms embargo on both the Gadhafi regime and the rebels. This blunder forced the rebels to look elsewhere for weapons and cash, particularly Gulf states like Qatar that favored Islamist militias. As Gadhafi's forces were about to overrun Benghazi in March, the Arab League, Britain and France called for military intervention. Only after the Security Council gave the green light—when Russia abstained—did NATO launch air strikes. Anterican cruise missiles and bombers led the way, but President Obama the U.S. out of a leadership combat role. The U.S. also waited until July to recognize the Benghazi rebel opposition as "the legitimate governing authority," after Luxembourg and 25 other countries had already done so. The war lasted until October, much longer than necessary. UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05796884 Date: 01/07/2016 American disengagement continued after Gadhafi fell. Though rich in oil, Libya's well-intentioned new leaders needed advice and encouragement to build a functioning state. The most pressing need was to rein in the anti- Gadhafi militias and stand up a national army. But the U.S. was reluctant to follow up with aid or know-how. (See our December 24, 201.1 editorial, "MIA on the Shores of Tripoli.") Qatar and the United Arab Emirates stepped in with money and weapons, again favoring Islamist groups. The Libyan people nonetheless voted in elections this summer for secular, pro-Western leaders. Yet the government has limited powers and lacks a proper army. The militias have stepped into the vacuum, while al Qaeda-style training camps proliferate in the hills around Benghazi. * * * This abdication is the backdrop to what happened on September 11. The large CIA outpost in Benghazi was supposed to monitor jihadists and work with State to round up thousands of mobile surface-to-air missiles in Libya. Yet it turns out that it's hard to fight terrorists on the ground with drones from remote bases. Without a functioning government or broader U.S. aid, a small Islamist militia was able to target foreign diplomats and eventually lay siege to the U.S. compound. The CIA closed its entire Benghazi shop that very morning—an abject retreat. For weeks, the Administration has tried to shift blame for Benghazi to the "intelligence community." Mr. Petraeus's fall makes him an easy scapegoat, even as Mrs. Clinton takes a valedictory lap at State and sets her sights on a 2016 Presidential run. But U.S. Libya policy has been her handiwork, and with the exception of the fall of Gadhafi it is a notable failure. Mrs. Clinton is also a main architect of U.S. policy in Syria, which continues to descend into disorder that may engulf the region. She shouldn't get a free pass from Congress.

Many good reasons given for the Marine tipping point at Tarawa all valid. I would attribute their success due to their ability to engage in small unit action uncomplicated like the Army losing attack time waiting for artillery support.I sense the Marines in even less then squad strength with two or three armed with M1's and a Bar backing up a demolitions or flamethrower did much of the fighting.Remind you also the M1 had much more rapid fire power then the Japanense rifle too.But hey write all this but those of you who were on Tarawa know more then I do.

Protein Chaperones and Protection from Neurodegenerative Diseases
Protein Chaperones and Protection from Neurodegenerative Diseases
ISBN: 978-1-118-06390-3 June 2011 444 Pages
How protein chaperones protect cells from neurodegenerative diseases
Including contributions from leading experts, Protein Chaperones and Protection from Neurodegenerative Diseases provides an in-depth exploration of how protein chaperones are involved in shielding cells from toxic aggregated or misfolded protein states that cause ALS, Parkinson's, and related diseases.
Examining how different protein chaperones ameliorate the toxicity of proteins that are known to cause neurodegenerative damage, the book addresses both research and clinical perspectives on chaperone and anti-chaperone properties. The intersection of molecular chaperones and neurodegeneration is an intensely studied area, partly because of the potential for manipulating the expression of molecular chaperones to thwart the progression of debilitating diseases, and partly because of the ever-aging global population.
Discussing the potential to harness the power of protein chaperones, and future directions for research, discovery, and therapeutics, this book is essential reading for scientists working in the fields of biochemistry, molecular medicine, pharmacology and drug discovery, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, advanced students, and anyone interested in this cutting-edge topic.

One of the most talked-about rappers of 2008, Jay Electronica built his reputation via the Internet and word of mouth, without so much as a single commercial release to his credit. Born Je'Ri Allah in 1976, he grew up in the Magnolia projects of New Orleans, where he lived until age 19. In the years that followed, he lived a nomadic lifestyle, moving back and forth between Atlanta, New York, Detroit, and Baltimore, among other cities. He adopted the Jay Electronica alias while living in Baltimore circa 2000. While in Detroit, he befriended associates of J Dilla, working closely with engineer Mike "Chav" Chavarria and collaborating with producer Denaun Porter (aka Mr. Porter). As a rapper, he distributed his recordings via the Internet, primarily his MySpace page. Among these Internet-circulated recordings, a few stood out and helped create a buzz: "Act 1," an epic homemade rap over Jon Brion's score for the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; "Bitches and Drugs," a J Dilla production; "Extra Extra," a Madlib production; and the StyleWars EP. The word of mouth didn't hurt, either, as Erykah Badu, Just Blaze, Nas, and others spoke highly of Jay Electronica in the media. Moreover, Badu reportedly made him the first signee of her Control FreaQ Records label.
Up-and-coming alternative rapper specializing in quizzical, tounge twisting rhymes.

My friend Nina wants to do Zazen tomorrow morning (July 4, 2009). So I will be at Hill Street Center at 10 AM if anyone else wants to join. Actually, I don't run the thing anymore. So I should consult with the folks who do before unilaterally deciding. But I have now spoken. So that's that! If it's just me & Nina, that's fine. But if anyone else feels like a bit of Zazen before their 4th of July picnic or whatever, please feel free to stop in.
I was a bit surprised at the response in the comments section to that article I linked to last time in which the Christian minister trashed Zen. I would never even have considered writing to the guy or even worrying very much what he had to say. I just thought the piece was amusing.
There's no proselytizing in Zen because there's no sense in trying to get anyone to convert to it. There's also no sense in trying to change the minds of the ignorant. You can put the correct information out there and hope for the best. But there's no sense in getting up in anyone's face. It just makes them harden their own position against yours. Ignorant here is the significant word because folks like that minister deliberately ignore what doesn't fit their worldview.
There's a mountain of wrong information out there about Zen, a lot of it from supposedly "respected authorities." You can't really change that. Just enjoy.
