Hail to the Queen!
The celebration of Queen Elizabeth II's 60 years on the British throne kicked off in royal fashion Saturday, Reuters reported.
Her Majesty, 86, arrived at the Epsom Derby in southern England to watch one of the racing calendar's richest events.
U.S. & World
She was accompanied by her granddaughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, People magazine reported.
Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, Tweeted about her daughters' appearance.
"So proud of my of my beautiful daughters and how special to be at the Epsom Derby supporting their Granny what an amazing Grandmother the Queen is," wrote Ferguson, according to People.
Wearing a royal blue coat, a matching hat and a while silk dress with floral detail, the Queen was cheered on by tens of thousands of well-wishers, People reported.
The Derby launched four days of nationwide Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
Welsh opera singer Katherine Jenkins led the the 130,000 strong crowd in singing "God Save The Queen."
"I would have stood there in the pouring rain to have sung that, it was such an honor," said Jenkins, who was accompanied by the Band of the Royal Marines, Reuters reported.
"This is definitely a day I will never forget. There's such a sense of celebration in the air, everybody's really proud and happy and, I think, inspired by this."

Jesse Jackson, Jr. and wife to enter guilty pleas
Jesse Jackson, Jr.'s fall continues.
By Freddie Allen
WASHINGTON, D.C. (NNPA) – The swift political and personal descent of former Congressman Jesse L. Jackson, Jr. has accelerated with criminal information documents being filed accusing him of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, and making false statements in connection with allegations that he diverted approximately $750,000 in campaign funds for personal use.
His attorney has said that the oldest son of civil rights icon Jesse Jackson has been cooperating with federal authorities and will plead guilty to the charges. No sentencing date has been set but Jackson could face up to five years in prison, a $250,000 fine and forfeiture of items he purchased illegally. Because of his cooperation, prosecutors are expected to recommend that Jackson serve between 46 and 57 months in prison and receive a fine in the range of $10,000 to $100,000.
Jackson recently resigned his seat in Congress, citing health issues as well as the on-going federal probe. Jackson's wife Sandi, who recently gave up her seat as a Chicago alder-man, was charged with one count of filing false tax returns and could face three years in prison and a $100,000 fine.
In a statement issued through his attorney Friday, the former Congressman from Chicago said:
"Over the course of my life I have come to realize that none of us are immune from our share of shortcomings and human frailties. Still I offer no excuses for my conduct and I fully accept my responsibility for the improper decisions and mistakes I have made. To that end I want to offer my sincerest apologies to my family, my friends and all of my supporters for my errors in judgment and while my journey is not yet complete, it is my hope that I am remembered for the things that I did right."
Criminal information documents do not represent the initiation of formal charges, but are usually filed only with the consent of the defendant who essentially agrees with the information filed in federal court.
The information papers filed Friday in Washington, D.C. allege that Jackson "used credit cards issued to the Campaign to make purchases for personal expenses and directed that funds from the Campaign be used to pay the credit card bills for these purchases."
The items Jackson is believed to have purchased illegally range from $9,587.64 in children's furniture shipped from New Jersey to Jackson's home in Washington to memorabilia associated with celebrities.
Between August 2007 and September 2008, Jackson spent $10,105 on Bruce Lee memorabilia and more than $11,000 acquiring items associated with slain civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. In 2009, Jackson Jr. turned his eye to the King of Pop, collecting more than $26,000 in items owned by the "Smooth Criminal" singer, including $4,600 on a Michael Jackson fedora in 2010.
He also paid $5,000 for a football signed by American presidents and more than $2,000 each on Malcolm X and Jimi Hendrix memorabilia. Jackson's most lavish purchase was a $43,000 gold-plated Rolex watch that he purchased for himself, according to the criminal information documents.
The documents also allege that Jackson blew $5,000 in campaign funds on a shopping spree at Edwards Lowell Furrier and Fur Shop in Beverly Hills, Calif. on a mink cashmere cape, a black and red cashmere cape, a mink reversible parka and a black fox reversible coat.
After winning a re-election bid for his House seat with 71 percent of the vote in November 2012, Jackson resigned following months of speculation and on-again off-again treatment at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. for mental and physical health issues. Jackson's doctors revealed that he suffered from bipolar disorder.
U.S. Representative Danny Davis (D-Ill.) raised Jackson's mental illness as a clue to Jackson's illegal spending spree.
"I think things probably just got out of hand for them and they got involved in making decisions that just didn't make a lot of good sense," Davis said in an interview with the Associated Press.
According to the National Institutes of Mental Health (NIMH):
"People with bipolar disorder experience unusually intense emotional states that occur in distinct periods called 'mood episodes.' An overly joyful or overexcited state is called a manic episode, and an extremely sad or hopeless state is called a depressive episode. Sometimes, a mood episode includes symptoms of both mania and depression.
"Bipolar disorder is characterized by mood changes like feelings of euphoria and behavioral changes including restlessness, lack of sleep and "behaving impulsively and taking part in a lot of pleasurable, high-risk behaviors, such as spending sprees, impulsive sex, and impulsive business investments."
According to NIMH, "People who suffer depressive episodes associated with bipolar disorder may experience mood changes like feelings of emptiness and apathy towards pleasurable activities. Behavioral changes include: "feeling tired or 'slowed down,' having problems concentrating, remembering and making decisions and changes in eating, sleeping or other habits."
Congressman Davis said, "It's hard to rationalize it. Not all elected officials in Illinois are corrupt or building any kind of political dynasty or trying to develop political power. Most individuals elected to public office are citizens who want to make the most effective use of themselves and make this world a better place in which to live."
Jackson's fall from grace marks a tragic end to a political career that appeared to have no limits. His name was floated for every political office from of Chicago to the president of the United States. After he was investigated in a fundraising scheme involving incarcerated former Gov. Rod Blagojevich attempt to sell President Obama's old Senate seat in 2008, Jackson's star never recovered, though he was never charged with any related crimes.
Jesse Jackson became the second consecutive Congressman to resign while representing the Second District of Illinois, which covers parts of the South Side and south suburbs. In 1994, Mel Reynolds resigned and served time in prison for having sex with a 16-year-old campaign worker. Jackson won the special election in 1995 to replace him.
Jackson's father had planned to attend a speech by President Obama in Chicago on Friday, but skipped the event to be with his family and son in Washington when the criminal information was filed.
The elder Jackson said, "We express our love for him as a family."

The Filibuster
Frankfurt, KY
What a coincidence, dear reader Henry! For just the other day I was telling my crestfallen and oft flustered colleague, Mr. Allen Krause, that the only surefire way to take over the world is to get a bunch of followers to trust in some cliche, universal proverbs with some fairy tales thrown in for fun. And hot dog if you didn't just poke me to share!
First, allow me to correct you on the title. Mr. Lung is my pop's name. This here lil book is called The Holy-Cow Canon of Jeff. It is presented in three parts, or books as you shall see.
The Book of Baseball
Respect. Not sayin' you have to love the hell out of baseball like I do, but you gotta at least respect it. You must recognize the fact that those of us who worship the game and revere the diamond as our sanctuary tend to be wiser, more patient, and definitely more prone to bouts of combustible love rooted in our collective ability to cherish the good and to quickly forget all that is bad.
From The Book of Baseball, Chapter 28, Verse 5:
"Smith corks one into right, down the line! It may go . . . Go crazy, folks, go crazy!"
The Book of Womenz
Basically, the moral of this book (the largest of the three, naturally), is to always admire and respect beauty — whatever that means to you. For me, that means Erin Andrews' choice wardrobe selection, Kim Kardashian's bangin' bum, Jenna Fischer's girl-next-door allure, Allison Stokke's athletically gifted physique and Lucy Liu's dominatrix potential. (If it's menz you're into, then simply substitute "menz" for "womenz". If it's non-humans you're into, then I can't help you, but maybe these folks can).
From The Book of Womenz, Chapter 43, Verse 12-14:
"The girls is all jockin' at the other end of the bar, havin' drinks with some no-name chump, when they know that I'm the star. So I got up and strolled over to the other side of the cantina, I asked the guy 'Why you so fly?', he said 'Funky Cold Medina'." (via Deacon Loc)
The Book of the Golden Rule
Just like in modern day Christianity, you can skip the other books of this canon if you want and just focus on this last and most important one. It's fairly simple and you heard it in kindergarten (maybe you haven't learned it yet) but you've definitely heard it: Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
Got it? Don't want someone to beat you up and take your money? Then don't beat people up and take their money. Don't want strangers dictating to you what you should and shouldn't believe? Then don't dictate to strangers what they should and shouldn't believe. Like living in peace without bombs being dropped on your house? Then live in peace and don't friggin' drop bombs on other people's houses!!!
It's really that easy!
There's only one verse in this book, so let me repeat it, The Book of the Golden Rule, Chapter 1, Verse 1:
Thank you and good night.
Also, the above chapter and verse can be ignored when it comes to Chicago sCrUBS bashing, which is vehemently encouraged and allowed.
Hate me 'cuz I'm makin' moves, just don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.

rdnetto sends in this clip from TorrentFreak. To pursue these plans the Pirate Party needs to win 4% of the seats in Parliament in an election coming up in September. "After their former hosting provider received an injunction telling it to stop providing bandwidth to The Pirate Bay, the worlds most resilient BitTorrent site switched to a new ISP. That host, the Swedish Pirate Party, made a stand on principle. Now they aim to take things further by running the site from inside the Swedish Parliament. ... The party has announced today that they intend to use part of the Swedish Constitution to further these goals, specifically Parliamentary Immunity from prosecution or lawsuit for things done as part of their political mandate. They intend to push the non-commercial sharing part of their manifesto, by running The Pirate Bay from inside the Parliament, by Members of Parliament."

The bicycle is the noblest invention of mankind.
– William Saroyan
It would not be at all strange if history came to the conclusion that the
perfection of the bicycle was the greatest event of the nineteenth century.
The first real grip I ever got on things
Was when I learned the art of pedaling
– Seamus Heaney
Whenever I see an adult on a bicycle, I have hope for the human race.
– H.G. Wells
A bicycle does get you there and more… And there is always the thin edge of danger to
keep you alert and comfortably apprehensive. Dogs become dogs
again and snap at your raincoat; potholes become personal.
And getting there is all the fun.
– Bill Emerson, On Bicycling, Saturday Evening Post, 1967
The Bicycle
Wheels carry me from
Youth to middle to old age
Never complaining
– K. Earle
Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of riding a bike.
– John F. Kennedy
The bicycle is the most civilized conveyance known to man.
Other forms of transport grow daily more nightmarish.
Only the bicycle remains pure in heart.
– Iris Murdoch
I feel that I am entitled to my share of lightheartedness and there is
nothing wrong with enjoying one's self simply, like a boy.
– Leo Tolstoy, Responding to criticism for learning to ride a bicycle at age 67
Oldest West African mud mosque, Djenne, Mali
Longmen Caves, Henan Province, Louyang, China
Life is like riding a bicycle.
To keep your balance you must keep moving.
– Albert Einstein
I began to feel that myself plus the bicycle equaled myself plus the world,
upon whose spinning wheel we must all learn to ride, or fall into the sluiceways of
oblivion and despair. That which made me succeed with the bicycle was precisely
what had gained me a measure of success in life —
it was the hardihood of spirit that led me to begin, the persistence of will that held me to my task,
and the patience that was willing to begin again when the last stroke had failed.
– Frances E. Willard

The annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) was held in Las Vegas as planned, with more than 3,000 exhibiting companies participating. Among them, ECOVACS ROBOTICS, one of the top leading companies of in-home service robots, was there to showcase its latest products to the world. ECOVACS ROBOTICS presented its new DEEBOT Series 9 model – DR 95, and received positive feedback from the audiences, who were impressed with the product's features and convenient user experience.
ECOVACS ROBOTICS' DR95 stands out from other robotic vacuum cleaners due to its proprietary SMART NAVI™ technology and advance planning. With the advanced SMART NAVI™ technology, DR95 is able to scan the room prior to cleaning it, in order to create a visual map. Each room is tagged with a different color and consumers can view the map through a mobile application, allowing them to control the robot remotely and to know which areas DR95 has already cleaned. This feature, along with advance planning which allows users to schedule the robot's cleaning time in advance, provide more convenience to users who may want a specific area cleaned, on a specific time and day.
Furthermore, ECOVACS ROBOTICS demonstrated other new products in CES 2016 such as the versatile DM85 vacuum cleaner and the new window cleaning robot W850 with a high-pressure fan for more stability. The founder of ECOVACS ROBOTICS, Mr. Qian Dongqi, said that 'Remote interaction, automation and user-orientation are what consumers are looking for in home service robots. ECOVACS ROBOTICS will keep on developing user-centric products that will change how people view traditional cleaning, in an effort to help them drastically improve their lives." The company's vision is to create useful and fun products that will allow people to have a more convenient and enjoyable life, as encouraged by the company's motto to "Live Smart. Enjoy Life".

New report recommends overhaul of FAA's hiring and scheduling procedures.
Air traffic controllers at the Federal Aviation Administration work shifts that cause fatigue and poor performance on the job, according to a new report.
The National Research Council detailed a litany of concerns with FAA's staffing and scheduling processes, noting some policies create safety concerns. The researchers suggested the agency modify the way it makes staffing decisions to ensure it has enough employees to meet its needs.
Many air traffic controllers take five eight-hour shifts over the course of four days, as it allows them to subsequently take 80 hours off. To work that much in such a confined timeframe, however, often leads to "sleep deficit." The effect is multiplied as this schedule requires controllers to work their final shift late at night, in what is known as the midnight shift.
"This combination of acute sleep loss and work during the biological night increases the risk for fatigue and for associated errors and accidents," the NRC said.
Researchers called the practice "questionable," and said they were "astonished" it was still allowed. FAA has established a "fatigue risk management system," but budget cuts have reduced its effectiveness. The report recommended the agency work with the National Air Traffic Controllers Association to implement a new schedule that better accounts for fatigue.
Part of the issue stems from a lack of guidance from the FAA headquarters, the report said. Each facility is left to develop its own schedule "independently of FAA's staff planning process." Staffing levels and schedules, therefore, may not reflect best strategies for fatigue management or cost effectiveness.
The report also found FAA is not utilizing all the data it has at its disposal to measure potential shortfalls. Researchers found "no systematic or proactive mechanisms within FAA to analyze data relative to staffing levels." In addition to using existing information, agency management should involve air traffic controllers in conversations to assess their concerns, the report said.
"The FAA faces many challenges in identifying the level of controller staffing needed to ensure safe and cost-effective services nationally and at its 315 facilities, starting with the lack of definitive methods for relating staffing levels to safety," said Amy Pritchett, chair of the committee tasked with researching the report. "The committee's recommendations aim to enable controller staffing decisions that are consistent; that are driven by proper science and data analysis; and that will address relationships between ensuring safety, meeting the operational needs of the aviation community, and demonstrating cost-effectiveness."
Pritchett added FAA's concerns are exacerbated by an upcoming wave of retirements at the agency. More than one in five air traffic controllers were eligible to retire at the end of fiscal 2012, and it generally takes years to train a new hire.

Anyone who lives, visits or works in London uses transport. Together we made 31 million journeys on the Transport for London network each day in 2016. We walk, drive, take minicabs and cycle around our city too.
Cycling has increased greatly over last years -the Santander Cycling Scheme alone recorded 10.3 million journeys in 2017.
But often, busy tubes and trains, congested roads, delayed busses and a lack of cycling lanes can sour our journeys. How do we provide a fairer, more accessible and more environmentally-friendly travel network?
In March 2018, the Mayor published his Transport Strategy: "This strategy document details how we aim to change the transport mix across London, providing viable and attractive alternatives that will allow Londoners to reduce their dependence on cars."

THE HOARSE WHISPERER By Jenny Ortuoste for Manila Standard-Today, 21 September 2011, Wednesday
Humble Riches Can Be Proud
Emerging superfilly Humble Riches has reason to be proud after acing the 4th leg of the Philippine Racing Commission Juvenile Stakes series held last Saturday at the San Lazaro Leisure Park.
Under the guidance of jockey Val Dilema, Humble Riches won the 1,500-meter event by many lengths, clocking 1:34.2 with quarters of 17.8/24/24.8/27.6.
Mika Mika Mika put up a good fight but had to settle for second place, followed by Spring Collection and Alpha Alleanza for the final two prize-money places.
Humble Riches won the second and third leg of the series, breaking the record for 1,200 meters during the latter with a speedy 1.11.6 and winning by six lengths over Alpha Alleanza.
Jockey Antonio Alcasid Jr. has a story to tell about Humble Riches. He says according to trainer Ruben Tupas, when they began training that filly early this year, she reared when being led into the trailer that was to take her from the ranch down to the racecourse.
She hit her head on the trailer ceiling and was knocked unconscious, a condition that often leads to death.
The trainer and grooms revived Humble Riches by splashing water on her. She came round, staggered to her feet, was trucked to the track, and from then on showed that freakish speed.
Her time has been consistently better than the boys'. In the counterpart Colts stakes held last Sunday, Golden Empire fought hard for the victory, winning by three lengths wire-to-wire but only posting splits of 18.4/24.4/25/27.8 for a total 1:35.6 for the same distance. That's over a second-and-a-half slower than Humble Riches' time – in horseracing, that's an eon.
Patron was second, Stolen Time third, Yes Yes Yes fourth.
The mile Philracom Juvenile Championship is set for December 11 also at SLLP. Will the 2YO crown go to Humble Riches? This is one event no racegoer should miss.
This early, I'm betting my shirt (and entire wardrobe, including shoes and handbags) on this superfilly.
* * * * *
Speaking of December 11, it's also the date of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office's Presidential Gold Cup, the most important race on the calendar.
Meanwhile, the PCSO Draw and Races Department recently announced the declared runners for its October 16 Special Maiden Race at SLLP (in order of post position drawn):
Herminio Esguerra's Purple Ribbon, to be ridden by jockey Fernando Raquel Jr.; Ruben Dimacuha's Make My Day (jockey Mark Alvarez); Raymund Puyat's Flo Jo (Christopher Garganta); Honorato Neri's Fort Alamo (Antonio Alcasid Jr.); Doroteo Pangilinan's Madam Theresa (Virgilio Camañero Jr.); and Dominic Francisco's Shegar (Jordan Cordova).
* * * * *
In world racing, horses are gearing up for the November 5 Breeders' Cup at Churchill Downs, Kentucky, USA. Handlers of Stay Thirsty and Uncle Mo want to see the two compete in the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic.
Uncle Mo was the 2010 2YO champion. He'll be running in the $200,000 Kelso Stakes mile (G2).
Stay Thirsty won the Jim Dandy and Travers stakes races, and will be entered in the $750,000 Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont on October 1. ***

The Golconda fort was first built by Kakatiya as part of their western defenses. It was built in 945 CE-970 CE on the lines of the Kondapalli fort. The city and fortress are built on a granite hill that is 120 meters (400 ft) high and is surrounded by massive crenelated ramparts. The fort was rebuilt and strengthened by Pratapa Rudra of Kakatiya dynasty. The fort was further strengthened by Musunuri Nayaks who overthrew the Tughlak army occupying Warangal. The fort was ceded by the Musunuri chief, Kapaya Nayaka to the Bahmanis as part of the treaty in 1364 AD. The fort became the capital of a major province in the Sultanate and after its collapse the capital of the Qutb Shahi kings. The fort finally fell into ruins after a siege and its fall to Mughal emperor Aurangazeb in 1687 AD. After the collapse of the Bahmani Sultanat, Golkonda rose to prominence as the seat of the Qutb Shahi dynasty around 1507. Over a period of 62 years the mud fort was expanded by the first three Qutb Shahi kings into a massive fort of granite, extending around 5 km in circumference.

The church was built under the stewardship of the Methodist Christian, the Reverend Charles Walker Posnett, who was driven by the motto My best for my Lord. Charles Posnett had arrived in Secunderabad in 1895, and after first ministering among British soldiers at Trimullghery, had launched into the villages and had reached Medak village in 1896. In those days there was no railway to Medak (the journey of 60 miles (97 km) from Hyderabad had to be done on horseback - and Posnett could do it in a day) and in the whole Medak area there were hardly two hundred Christians, who were using a small tiled house as their place of worship. As the number of Christians increased, Charles Posnett raised a moderate structure in the Mission Compound in the shape of a church, but thought it unworthy, and early in 1914 laid the foundations of the present cathedral church, on 1,000 acres (4.0 km2) of land in Ghusnabad area. When the people of Medak district were suffering from famine between 1919 and 1921, Charles Posnett helped them by employing them in the construction of the church instead of running a free kitchen. Construction went on for 10 years. Charles Posnett consecrated the church in 1924, thanking God for mitigating the sufferings of the people.

Warangal Fort, in the present-day Indian state of Telangana, appears to have existed since at least the 13th century CE. Although precise dating of its construction and subsequent enhancements are uncertain, historians and archaeologists generally accept that an earlier brick-walled structure was replaced with stone by Ganapatideva, who died in 1262, and that his successors – Rudramadevi and Prataparudra – added to its height and added gateways, square bastions and additional circular earthern walls prior to the latter's death in 1323. This places the construction towards the end of the Kakatiya period. There were later modifications between the 15th and 17th centuries, comprising principally the addition of barbicans to the four gates in the stone wall and the creation of gates in the outer earthern wall. Remnants of the structure can be seen today near to the town of Warangal, which was the Kakatiya capital. The Archaeological Survey of India has listed the remains as a Monument of National Importance.

A string of disappointing economic data capped by last week's jobs report is prompting even some of the more optimistic economists to question the durability of the U.S. recovery.
While analysts such as Stephen Stanley of Pierpoint Securities LLC and Michael Feroli of JPMorgan Chase & Co. still see growth strengthening in the months ahead, they voiced concern that the lull in the economy may prove prolonged, leaving it more vulnerable to external shocks or policy missteps.
"We'll do better in the second half," said Feroli, chief U.S. economist for JPMorgan in New York and a former member of the Federal Reserve's forecasting team. "That said, the concern is that there's enough weakness that could feed on itself."
Policy makers have limited leeway to respond to the accumulating signs of slowdown. The Fed is completing its purchase of $600 billion of Treasury securities this month, leaving it with a $2.77 trillion balance sheet that some central bankers fret is already too big.
The record $1.6 trillion federal budget deficit that the White House projects this year has left President Barack Obama with little room to use fiscal policy to spur the economy, especially with Republican lawmakers calling for cuts in spending, rather than more investment.
"Our economy is not creating enough jobs, and Democrats' binge of taxing, spending, borrowing and over-regulating is a big part of the reason why," John Boehner, speaker of the House of Representatives and a Republican from Ohio, said in a statement on June 3.
Jobless Rate Climbs
Payrolls grew at the slowest pace in eight months in May and the unemployment rate unexpectedly climbed to 9.1 percent from 9 percent in April, Labor Department figures released on June 3 showed. The 54,000 rise in jobs followed a 232,000 gain in April and was below the 165,000 median increase forecast by economists in a Bloomberg News survey.
The jobs numbers followed a series of economic statistics suggesting that the economy is decelerating. Manufacturing grew at its slowest pace in more than in year in May, according to Institute for Supply Management data released last week. Consumer spending, which accounts for 70 percent of the economy, rose less than forecast in April as households felt the pinch of grocery and energy costs, a Commerce Department report showed.
Stanley, who is chief economist at Pierpoint in Stamford, Connecticut, said he is betting that the softness in the economy will prove to be temporary, the result of a surge in gasoline prices that has since subsided and supply disruptions from the March earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Like Feroli, though, he is becoming more concerned.
Animal Spirits
"I'm starting to get worried," Stanley said. The economy's "animal spirits are fragile."
Investor concern over the economy sent stocks down. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 97.29 points, or 0.8 percent, to 12,151.26 in New York on June 3, extending a fifth straight weekly loss, its longest slump since 2004. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dropped 1 percent to 1,300.16. Treasuries rose, pushing yields on two-year notes down three basis points to 0.43 percent, the lowest this year.
Feroli and Stanley started the year more optimistic than many of their peers. The economy was forecast to expand 3.1 percent in 2011, according to the median estimate of economists in a Bloomberg News survey published Jan. 13. At the time, Stanley's projection was 3.8 percent, while Feroli predicted 3.3 percent growth. Stanley has since cut his forecast to 2.9 percent while Feroli has lowered his to 2.4 percent.
Not Alone
The two are not alone in shaving their forecasts. Joe LaVorgna, chief U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. in New York, projected growth of 3.3 percent for 2011 at the start of the year, on a fourth-quarter over fourth-quarter basis, and has reduced that to 3.1 percent.
Dean Maki, chief U.S. economist at Barclays Capital Inc., has trimmed his 2011 forecast to 2.5 percent, down from a 3.1 percent estimate at the beginning of the year.
Economists aren't the only ones with reason to worry: the latest jobs numbers pose a challenge to President Obama, whose re-election prospects hinge on pushing the jobless rate lower.
"The danger is that if we continue to take two steps forward, two steps back, people are going to continue to suffer a high level of economic anxiety," said Bill Carrick, a Democratic strategist. "There's no way that can be good politically for the president."
Austan Goolsbee, Obama's chief economist, said the jobs report represents a "little bump" in the road to recovery and that the broader trends are "substantially more positive" than when Obama took office in January 2009.
Facing Headwinds
"We should never read too much into any one month's report," Goolsbee, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said in a June 3 interview on Bloomberg Television. "No doubt we face some headwinds."
The slow pace of the recovery doesn't come as surprise to Kenneth Rogoff, a former International Monetary Fund chief economist who is now a professor at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. History shows that it takes time for economies to recover from financial crises like the one that hit the U.S.

SXSWedu 2017 Panel
Hosted by Absolute: Empower K-12 staff, parents and community by learning best-practices for digital citizenship, including device safety and security, cyberbullying and Internet crime. Learn how to promote a healthy environment for students and faculty, including education on device safety and scenarios where they may be at risk; and how to work with local law enforcement to protect devices and data. Harold Reaves, Level V Certified in Homeland Security, shares best practices to protect student-assigned mobile devices and risks regarding social media and the Internet; and education consultant and former IT director can provide real-life scenarios, lessons and best-practices.
Empower (Educate) K12 Staff, Parents, and Community
Students don't think much about safety and security. Parents may think a lot about it but don't necessarily know what to do.
Communities expect we manage devices paid for by their tax money well. There's also an expectation that we protect students when we give them access to devices and send devices home with them. Helping parents have a role and responsibility in this is important.
Use your website and other communication tools to help educate parents with videos and other modes of information.
Show that your organization understands their responsibility by making it a community collaboration to help keep students safe.
Educating community members who are not tech savvy can trickle down and help everyone.
Digital Citizenship
Schools and districts often have curriculum for digital citizenship, but it is just as often not implemented because it's not tested.
Students are connected to devices 24/7. They rarely unplug.
Digital citizenship cannot be taught one time in drive-by lessons. It has to be continually taught, retaught, and revisited.
Do students know they should keep their devices out of sight when they aren't using them to protect them?
Work With Local Law Enforcement to Protect Devices and Data
When doing a big new tech rollout, get local law enforcement involved from the beginning. They can consult with you on how safe your site is where you are storing the devices. Also it's good to establish the communication with them ahead of time in case technology should disappear later.
Publicize to the community the security measures you have in place on district devices. This lets them know you are being a good steward of the resources and also may help deter theft.
Protect Student-Assigned Mobile Devices
Teach students how to treat them properly: carry them, store them, etc.
Data Risks
Are we teaching data backup? What happens if a child drops and breaks their device. Teach good data stewardship.
Find Partners to Help You With Awareness Programs
Pro-active training strengthens the reputation of your program and builds public confidence. Districts can demonstrate they have taken measures.
Absolute has developed a curriculum for mobile device safety training.
What do you thing is the most common security issue facing students and teachers today?
Device security.
Putting out too much info on the internet. Lack of awareness of how this could endanger them.
Not thinking about how much personal information they are giving over to apps and extensions when they install them. (Think of all the access an extension might ask for when you install it in your browser. Do we ever even read that?)

For 50 years, the Magic Castle in Hollywood has cast its spell on both Angelenos and visitors alike. Perched high the bustle of Hollywood in the shadow of the Hills, the 104-year-old Victorian mansion evokes an era long gone.
But it wasn't always a hideaway for purveyors of prestidigitation.
First built in 1909 by banker Rollin B. Lane, the mansion was a private residence until the 1940s when both Mr. and Mrs. Lane passed away. The home then sat vacant until it was purchased by Thomas Glover in 1955.
The idea to create a place in Los Angeles for magicians and illusionists to practice and share trade secrets had been a dream of attorney and magician William Larsen Sr. He died in 1953, never having realized his dream. However, his sons Milt and Bill Jr. finally honored their father's wish when, in 1961, they approached Glover to ask if he'd be interested in going into business together. Thus, the Magic Castle was created.
And it's a good thing, too. Glover's original intentions for the property were a lot less magical.
"The original idea was to tear down the mansion and actually create a parking structure for his restaurant on top of the hill, Yamashiro," said Magic Castle general manager Joe Furlow. "In 1961, on a Texas handshake, they began the deal that lead to our opening on Jan. 2, 1963."
From the moment you enter the building, you're transported to a Disneyland-esque world where pianos are played by ghosts named Irma, and only a secret code word will grant you entry. A strict dress code prohibits casual dress; men must wear a jacket and tie, and women must don dresses, skirts or sharp pantsuits. Visitors can only attend the private club if invited by members of the Academy of Magical Arts, which has added to the allure of the mansion over the years.
The structure was threatened in October 2011 when a fire destroyed much of the third story of the mansion. The club had to close for some time for clean-up and rebuilding.
"With our great membership and a lot of blood, sweat and tears we were able to reopen our building on Jan. 13, 2012," said Furlow. "Ever since then it has been exciting. We're up double digits in business, people are excited to come back, we have made a lot of modifications to the old building given to the fire, it gave us a chance to update a lot of our electrical and plumbing."
Many of the club's 5,000 members are recognizable names, including actor Neil Patrick Harris, who serves as the president of the Academy of Magical Arts.
"We've had a couple VIPs come to town. Johnny Thompson and his wife Pam, we had Norm Nielsen, and we had obviously Siegfried from Siegfried and Roy," said Furlow. "We had a couple video tributes by Penn and Teller as well as David Copperfield, Lance Burton. There have been a lot of great magicians over the years that have performed here."
Furlow's favorite trick:
"I like card tricks. Our chairman of the Board of Trustees is a gentleman by the name of John Armstrong, and John's slight of hand is some of the best I've ever seen. He was actually in our Palace of Mystery just last week and did a trick just with a rubber band, and the rubber band trick was something that just blew my mind."

The shower was held at my dear friend Elizabeth's home, and guess what? It was her birthday! She is so gracious and beautiful. Her home and yard is amazing, and she was so generous to share it with all of us on her special day. She has six kids of her own and six (almost seven) grandkids. We have been friends for about 15 years and I consider her a great blessing in my life.
I brushed some watered-down white paint on it and filled it with all sorts of produce from the farmer's market, (lettuce, cabbage, artichokes, kale, swiss chard, green onions, and cilantro) as well as fresh flowers in all shades of pink. There was minor chaos going on in the kitchen as we were setting up, but let's focus on the massive arrangement that came in at under $15.
Working in Elizabeth's gorgeous kitchen made it all a little more bearable. Just look at it!
Because I am helping Erica with her nursery, I knew exactly what I wanted to make her. I wanted to duplicate the huge canvas we made for {Kelsey's Room Makeover}, but with a quote perfect for the baby's room. I thought that finding a big canvas would be difficult, until I went to a garage sale a few weeks ago and brought this lover home with me for $10! It's really huge. Just over 4' x 5'.
I was really sad to discover that whatever medium the original artist used to texture the flowers on her canvas must have been an idential twin sister to cement. It was NOT going to sand off, so I was super bummed because I knew there was no way I could paint any sort of lettering over it. Just as desperation was setting in, I turned it around to discover it's beautiful, smooth, and untouched backside.
I set to work removing the wood cross braces on each corner, and then started the long process of filling staple and nail holes, as well as putting wood filler in each corner seam. After that was all dry and sanded, I started painting the frame and posted a little teaser on instagram.
I realized there was a sizable gap around the whole frame where some of the big staples were very obvious. So, I got a tube of caulk out and took care of that issue in about 30 seconds.
I have to thank my girl Jaci for all the amazing pictures from the shower. She has become quite the photographer and has been managing her own business for a couple years now. She saved her money and bought her own camera a few years ago, and has been in high demand from friends and family ever since. If you want to see some young talent, follow HER on instagram @jacimarie2. I'm so proud of her and the amazing and talented girl she is. She is almost 18 and I can't imagine what my life would be like without her. That's why I'm encouraging her to stay close for her first year of college.
Congratulations to my sister Erica and brother-in-law Brett. They are going to make amazing parents. Their sweet addition will make 20 grandchildren on my side, so they have been the fun Aunt and Uncle who have babysat, entertained, and played with all the kids for the last six years.

I'll admit right now that I read alot more discussions than I comment on, but after getting to know alot of you people i'm starting to see that a vast numer of us were all religious at one point.
Now I was never raised in a religious environment. My mom had a religious boyfriend for ten years..well he was religious but in that hillbilly no-questions-asked kinda way, he never went to church or anything. But other than that my family has no interest in god and the only time they talked about it was when they were telling someone else to stop talking about it. So i've always been really lucky in that sense. I remember asking my mom when I was a kid if I was religious and she told me I could decide that on my own when I was old enough. I've always appreciated the family I was born into and this is definitely one of the reasons.
So why am I telling you all this? Mostly cause it results in me not knowing shit about what its like to believe in god. I've always had alot of pride in my anti-supernatural opinions, but sometimes I think i've missed alot by not knowing it in the first place. Does it make me less of a god hater cause i'm ignorant to him? Sometimes I think true athiesm comes from having experienced it and realizing it's bullshit...
...and if so what does it make me? Every once in a while I think i'm missing something about god cause so many people have fallen for it. But the idea always seemed so stupid to me, even when I was really young.
-I must point out that my family also has this thing where NOTHING is worth being emotional over, so that might have something to do with it...but still. What is it about god that I dont get? Whaddid I miss?
am I thinking too hard about this?
did I burn my samosa's while getting carried away writing this?
.....yes :(

Lukas Smith has posted about the release of MDB2 2.1.0, the latest version of his blend of the PEAR MDB2 package and the PEAR DB package.
I decided to go with a bump of the minor version for the next release of MDB2 because there are a number significant changes and additions. One of the big changes is dropping array_key_exists() whereever possible.
Aside from that the two main features are custom datatypes and query rewriting via the debugging infrastructure. The custom datatypes were already explained in a previous blog post, so I will not go into detail on them again here. However the debugging infrastructure is probably one of the things people were not aware of before. Now its obviously even more powerful.
He includes code to demonstrate the powerful debugger that's been implemented. He also mentions two other people that have come on board to help with some of the development on the project - Justin working on the Oracle driver and Nathan on the SQL Server/PostgreSQL driver.

My copy of "Connections" — the Journal of the Quebec Family History Society (QFHS) — arrived last week. The 28 page journal has a picture of the world-famous Quebec City hotel, the Chateau Frontenac, on the front page. Taken in 1943, it is an impressive invitation to the index on the inside of the journal.
One of the articles includes "New Kid On The Block: St. James United Church" (Robert N. Wilkins, p.6), a piece about a Methodist church hidden from view in Montreal by shops built in front of it! Now on public view once more, it was one of the largest churches of the Methodist faith built in the world. It seats 2,000 people!
In this church in 1906, Booker T. Washington gave a speech on anti-slaverly. Another time, Harriet Beecher Stowe gave a similar speech on that topic, too.
At the end of page 3 is "Researching Your Family Lineage in France" in which the QFHS is offering to "... carry out detailed family searches of your French-Canadian Family Lineage(s) from Quebec to France".
They will do detailed searches for $50.00 per search and a search will take, on average three to four hours to complete - an average of $15 - $20 per hour. Where else can you find research, that experience, yet done with a knowledge only available at the QFHS?
One other article to note is their two-part series on "The Land Register of Quebec: Part I - The System" by Sharon Callaghan (p. 17) in which she says " ... that there is now an on-line, searchable database in which you can trace the history of any property in Quebec".
Part II of the article will appear in the fall issue of "Connections". She will take you on a tour of the website, and will review the search venue at <www.mrnf.gouv.qc.ca/english/home.jsp>.
There are also two articles on Montreal: "The City of Old" and "Phoebe David (1736/37-1785)" on pages 20 and 21. These should not be missed, as they provide great reading.
If you have never thought about joining QFHS, maybe it's time to consider doing so. I have been aware of Derek Hopkins and the gang since 1994, and they have done wonders with the English part of Quebec family history.
To see what else is avaible, go to their website at <www.qfhs.ca>, or send them a note at <email@example.com>.

Star Wars characters Han Solo and Boba Fett are to get their own standalone movies as part of Disney's new series of films in the long-running space saga, according to Entertainment Weekly.
Disney confirmed on Wednesday that it will make a number of spinoff films to sit alongside its previously announced sequel trilogy. Ain't It Cool News reported earlier in the week that the first standalone project will centre on Jedi master Yoda, and Entertainment Weekly now claims to have the inside track on two other characters in line for their own outings.
The Han Solo film will reportedly portray a younger version of the sardonic space smuggler, and will be set in the period between 2005 prequel movie Revenge of the Sith and the film that introduced the character, 1977's Star Wars. The timing would require a new actor for the lead, though Entertainment Weekly suggests original star Harrison Ford might appear in a framing device, and believes the film will not be based on Scoundrels, the recent Star Wars novel by Timothy Zahn, which saw Solo setting up an Ocean's 11-type heist in an effort to steal a gangster's fortune.
The film about Boba Fett, who appeared in 1980's The Empire Strikes Back and 1983's Return of the Jedi, would be set during the timeline of the original trilogy. Casting should not be an issue, since the character never removed his helmet in those films: Disney could in theory cast Temuera Morrison, who played Fett's clone-father Jango in the prequel films. Joe Johnston, who worked with Disney recently on the Marvel superhero movie Captain America, has in the past expressed an interest in directing a Boba Fett movie. The director has some attachment to the character, having designed his armour more than three decades ago while a young LucasFilm effects artist.
With both films set during the original trilogy, other popular characters such as Darth Vader or Jabba the Hutt could appear.
Star Trek's JJ Abrams was last month revealed as the director who will take on Star Wars Episode VII following Disney's $4.05bn purchase of all rights to the series in October. The new film is set to arrive in cinemas in 2015, with plans to release sequels every two to three years after that. Toy Story 3 writer Michael Arndt is overseeing the screenplay for the debut installment, while Disney has revealed that The Empire Strikes Back's Lawrence Kasdan and Sherlock Holmes' Simon Kinberg will write two of the standalone films.
The stars of the original trilogy, Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) and Ford (Han Solo), have all been tipped to return to the series.

State briefs from around Illinois
FREE ANTIBIOTICS, TEEN RUNS OVER FRIEND, HOGS OPENER SOLD OUT, STAPH INFECTION CASES and more.
Schnuck's offers free antibiotics
SPRINGFIELD – Joining a trend set by Wal-Mart and its competitors, Schnucks pharmacies this week began filling free prescriptions for seven different generic antibiotics.
"It just made a lot of sense for who we are as a company and our strategy for our stores," Bob Mueller, director of pharmacy for the St. Louis-based Schnucks supermarket chain, said Monday.
The chain's pharmacies at its stores in Springfield, Peoria, Bloomington, Champaign, Urbana and Rockford began offering the free prescription drugs on Monday as "phase two" of the company's plan to better compete in a "Wal-Mart world," Mueller said.
Analysts say Wal-Mart, the world's largest retailer, has become the nation's largest retailer of groceries.
Mueller said the first phase of Schnucks' efforts to boost its competitive position began several months ago, when Schnucks permanently reduced the price of 10,000 items - everything from canned goods to cereals and breads.
For an indefinite period, Schnucks Pharmacies will fill free prescriptions for 54 different versions of the oral antibiotic drugs amoxicillin, ampicillin, ciprofloxacin, doxycycline, erythromycin, penicillin and trimeth/sulfa.
Prescriptions for up to 21 days will be filled for free through the program, which also will cover refills.
Drugs in the program represent one-third of all antibiotics - brand-name and generic - dispensed by the 99 Schnucks pharmacies in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Wisconsin, Iowa, Tennessee and Mississippi, Mueller said.
Ex-minister pleads not guilty to child porn charge
PEORIA - A former minister and substitute teacher pleaded not guilty in federal court on Monday to producing child porn.
James Curtis Love, 37, was indicted earlier this month in U.S. District Court in Peoria on two counts of production of child pornography. If convicted, Love faces 15 to 30 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000 and lifetime supervised release.
Love was arrested in May and charged in McLean County with four counts of aggravated battery and four counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. He is accused of sedating teen boys and taking lewd photographs of them while they slept.
He was ordered held at the McLean County Jail pending his Dec. 17 trial date before U.S. District Judge Michael Mihm. A Dec. 10 trial has been set in the state case.
Authorities say that when Love was arrested, officials seized several computers from his home and at least one image of child pornography.
Before his arrest, Love was a minister at Mount Pisgah Baptist Church in Bloomington. He also worked at State Farm and as a substitute teacher in Bloomington and Normal.
Tazewell teen allegedly ran over friend; faces charge
PEKIN - A Washington teenager faces a reckless driving charge for allegedly running over his friend, who police say was riding on the hood of the car.
Alexander Dix, 17, of 1118 Dallas Road told police he was driving in the 1500 block of Woodbine in Washington on Oct. 16 when he saw several friends of his in the street.
That's when one of them, Jake Reatherford, 16, of Washington jumped on the hood of Dix's car, asking Dix to drive, police said.
Dix said he was driving between 15 and 20 mph when he became nervous because Reatherford was pounding on the windshield and hood.
Dix hit the brakes, causing Reatherford to fall from the hood, but the vehicle continued moving forward, running over Reatherford.
Reatherford was admitted to OSF Saint Francis Medial Center in Peoria with a broken pelvis and internal injuries, but hospital officials said he has since been released.
Dix faces a single count of reckless driving. He is scheduled to return to Tazewell County Court on Nov. 30.
Belvidere man gets prison time for '05 reckless homicide
BELVIDERE - A Belvidere man was sentenced to three and a half years in prison for a 2005 reckless homicide.
Scott E. Mains, 32, pleaded guilty to the charges Sept. 13. He was sentenced Monday by Judge J. Todd Kennedy.
The case dates back to Sept. 2, 2005, when Mains admitted to consuming about five alcoholic drinks at the Hideaway in Garden Prairie before getting behind the wheel of his motorcycle and piloting it down the small community's train tracks, according to Lise Lombardo, assistant state's attorney who handled the case.
Mains struck and killed Harold Winter, 62, who was walking along the tracks near his home.
Mains then fled the scene. Winter was later found by a group of ATV riders.
State trooper sex-abuse trial delayed again
ROCKFORD - The molestation trial of a former Illinois State trooper and Winnebago County Courthouse security guard has been postponed again, the second time in the past month.
William Heintz, 67, is charged with aggravated criminal sexual abuse for allegedly fondling the breast of a female relative between 13 and 17 years old. The abuse is said to have occurred Nov. 24, 2006.
Heintz was supposed to go to trial earlier this month, but jury selection was stopped midway after attorneys in the case asked for more time to assess new information. A new trial date was set for Oct. 29.
In the latest postponement, Heintz's attorneys argued Monday that certain testimony not be allowed at trial. Judge John Truitt denied the request, but both parties asked for more time to prepare for trial.
A jury trial now is set for Jan. 7. The case will be back in court Nov. 28 for status.

Banner mine project gains state permit
BANNER — A permit to mine coal in a 643-acre site outside Banner is an important step in "the rebirth of an industry deeply rooted in the heritage of Fulton County," the Canton engineer who handled the permit paperwork said this week.
Capital Resources Development Co. of Chicago first applied for a state permit to mine a 643-acre site just outside Banner six years ago. Company officials got word Friday that they'll get one.
"As long as they pay their fees and produce their bond, we will issue them the permit," said Illinois Department of Natural Resources spokesman Chris McCloud.
However, Joyce Blumenshine of the Heart of Illinois Sierra Club called the decision to issue a permit "an insult to the importance" of Banner Marsh and Rice Lake, two state fish and wildlife areas near the mining site.
"A 300-foot buffer is hardly adequate to protect those areas," she said. "Hunters and fishermen should be very concerned about this."
Banner Village Board President Ken Fuller, a vocal opponent of the mine, declined to comment on the permit Monday.
The company first applied for a mining permit at the site in 2001. Local residents objected, saying they feared mining operations could damage sewer lines and harm wildlife in the area. Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn backed the objectors, holding a rally across from the proposed mining site to gather support for denial of the permit.
Greg Arnett, an engineer with Capital Resources, estimates 30 to 40 mining jobs will be created at the site, where he said 1.6 million tons of coal can be removed over 10 years.
Two cases of staph infection report
LASALLE — Two cases of staph infection have been confirmed at LaSalle-Peru High School.
In a statement, School Superintendent Craig Carter said two students had contracted methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, commonly known as MRSA.
MRSA, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health, is resistant to mainstream antibiotics and at times can be deadly. It is treatable with early detection and good medical care.
The department recently received increasing reports of outbreaks. Such outbreaks have occurred among athletes, especially in sports such as football and wrestling, whose participants are prone to skin abrasions.
"To prevent the spread at school, we have begun to 'superclean' locker/athletic rooms and equipment that might be shared," Carter said.
School officials would not disclose the ages or sex of the two students but said they have received treatment.
Progress on Beardstown river project possible
BEARDSTOWN — It's taken years of wrangling, but Beardstown appears to be on the verge of fulfilling the most basic requirement of being a "river town" — regaining permanent access to the Illinois River.
A federal spending bill awaiting the president's signature would restore the connection between the Cass County town's marina and the Illinois River's main navigational channel.
Muscooten Bay and the marina in Beardstown have suffered from siltation ever since the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, at the direction of Congress, altered the path of the Sangamon River beginning in the 1930s. The Sangamon, which flows into the Illinois River upstream from Beardstown, was rerouted to prevent flooding of nearby farmland.
The 2007 Water Resources Development Act, if authorized, would reverse much of the work on the Sangamon River and remove silt that has mired the marina. U.S. Rep. Ray LaHood, R-Peoria, calls the bill "veto proof." If it is vetoed, the bill's overwhelming approval in both houses of Congress would make overriding the veto an easy endeavor.
"We've been fighting for over 15 years to get this corrected," said Beardstown Mayor Bob Walters. "We've got to come up with a long-term solution."
The city and the Corps had worked out temporary fixes in the recent past, including dredging a link between the silt-filled marina and river channel a few years ago. But that area became unnavigable within six months.
Couple arrested for underage drinking party
SPRINGFIELD – A Springfield couple was arrested Saturday night for contributing to the delinquency of minors after police allegedly found 32 underage drinkers at a party at their home.
Thomas F. Winkler, 51, and Janet L. Rockford, 42, both of the 2200 block of West Jefferson Street were taken to Sangamon County Jail.
Springfield police went to their home about 11 p.m after receiving a complaint about a fight there. When officers arrived they found a teenager lying in the roadway in front of the home, though a police report on the incident did not indicate if the teen was injured.
Officers began investigating and allegedly found six to eight teenagers around a bonfire in the backyard, where they also found numerous empty beer cans, police said. Teenagers also were found inside the home.
The Winklers allegedly told police their daughter was having a party but they were unaware there was underage drinking going on. The police report on the incident was forwarded to the state's attorney's office for possible underage drinking charges against the teenagers.
