Don't Pay For Make Work; Make Work Pay
If you want to understand why I'm happy to write for TAC, just read Ron Unz's brief for a dramatic rise in the minimum wage. He's been making this argument in these pages for some time now, and I hope he continues to beat this particular drum.
I hope so for reasons of principle and for practical reasons. In principle, any kind of "one-nation" conservatism has to care about inequality as such, and particularly about the weakness of labor's bargaining power in most of contemporary America. Right-wing individualism is often conflated with a conservative approach to governance in contemporary American politics, but that conflation is a profound error. As a practical matter, I'm convinced that wage stagnation is the deep reason for the financial crisis. The Bush-era answer to stagnating wages was cheaper credit. That papered over the problem for a while, but it teed America up for a terrible crash. (Harper's Canada, having dodged that crisis, may be heading for a similar crisis of their own now.) Avoiding a repeat requires fixing the structural drivers of widening inequality, and particularly means raising wages at the low end of the scale. In that context, a legislated rise in the minimum wage should absolutely be on the table for discussion.
That doesn't mean I don't see potential problems with Unz's argument. Ultimately, the only way a hike in the minimum wage "works" is if it creates incentives to increase labor productivity. In the absence of such incentives, it may be rational for an individual employer maximally to exploit his bargaining-power advantage even if it's to the detriment of the economic collectivity. That's the way things work in slave economies, and it's the way Marx assumed capitalism would evolve.
A mandated increase in wages could produce those incentives in various ways. If it led to an overall rise in prices, that could drive out competitors who followed a model of competing entirely on price, and skimping on quality. Or industries could respond by increasing automation, which would reduce head-count but would increase productivity per worker-hour. Or some jobs could move overseas – which could also increase efficiency, particularly if those were jobs that would otherwise be filled by low-skilled immigrants. That would also improve efficiency if it costs less to move capital than to move labor. All else being equal, those effects would increase unemployment in the short term while improving economic performance over the longer term – but under current conditions, where overall demand is low, an increase in the minimum wage would amount to redistribution to those most-likely to consume, which would mean an increase in demand, so I'm not sure you wouldn't actually see a net drop in unemployment overall.
But some sectors will find it harder to increase productivity than others – or will have weaker incentives to do so. One sector that could be particularly problematic is health-care. From orderlies to receptionists to janitors to home health-care aids, there are an awful lot of low-wage employees in the health-care sector. But so much of health-care spending is socialized that the incentives to innovate in response to a mandated rise in wages are not as operative. The initial impact of a hike in the minimum wage would likely be a spike in health-care inflation, which would, given the way Medicare and Medicaid work, lead to an immediate spike in Federal spending, and an increase in the structural deficit.
That's not necessarily an argument not to raise the minimum wage – but it's an argument that a hike in the minimum wage would be more effective if combined with efforts to improve productivity in the sector, which, given how enmeshed the government already is, will require government initiatives.
And that's an argument that can be generalized beyond health-care. Although America has relatively weak unions, and a highly mobile labor force, we don't exactly have a hands-off policy toward business regulation. Indeed, as we have gotten more tax-phobic, we've become more and more inclined to achieve our social goals through regulation of the private sector, and through a "socialism in one contract" approach by those unions that are relatively strong (such as public-sector unions). Regulatory reform could work hand-in-hand with a hike in the minimum wage: the latter providing the incentive to innovate to maintain profitability, the former increasing the scope of opportunity to do so.
These kinds of reforms are going to be particularly important to the small-business sector. Large businesses are going to be in a better position than small ones to rationalize their operations in response to a significant change in labor costs, both because they are likely to have more flexibility in financing during the transition and simply because they will have more moving parts to play with. A hike in the minimum wage would disproportionately impact small businesses. It would make sense to couple it with a pro-labor reform that would disproportionately benefit small businesses – such as a permanent cut in the employer portion of the payroll tax (offset by an increase in taxes on consumption, such as a VAT or carbon tax).
Moving to another part of Unz's argument, Unz points out a number of problems with the traditional "more education" prescription for solving the problem of stagnating wages. And he's right that a rise in wages for relatively low-skilled labor would reduce incentives to marginal students to go to a four-year college, which would help relieve some of the upward pressure on education costs. But a rise in the minimum wage will also produce incentives for businesses to reduce the use of unskilled labor, which will produce higher demand for opportunities to rise from "unskilled" to "semi-skilled." This is the sort of thing that community colleges focus on, and expanding the number of slots for associates degrees would be valuable. But it would also be valuable to push back against credentialism at this level as well, to open up space to acquire – and demonstrate – useful skills without having to participate in a formal degree program. There should be more scope to demonstrate specific competencies simply by passing a test, and then let a thousand test-prep flowers bloom.
My larger point is this. Wage stagnation is a serious economic and social problem with far-reaching consequences. You don't get to say "I don't care about that problem" because your ideology doesn't have a ready-made answer. That applies to free-market-oriented conservatives and client-service-oriented neo-liberals alike, because solving the problem is going to require solutions from the "left" and "right" side of the policy box, and these solutions may be more complementary than contradictory. Using government power to increase the negotiating leverage of labor in the market is more likely to increase wages without taking those gains back through inflation if business owners have more freedom to respond creatively to an increase in labor costs. Giving business more freedom to respond creatively to an increase in labor costs is more likely to result in gains to labor, rather than just increased rents for capital and the businesses that service capital, if the government acts to increase labor's negotiating leverage in the market.

India's Defense Deals Now Face Delay
The Finmeccanica bribery issue comes at a time when India is on the cusp of finalizing a contract with Dassault Aviation of France to purchase 126 Rafale fighter jets in a deal estimated at more than $10 billion. The acquisition of the Rafale jets is part of an Indian Air Force plan to buy up to 400 planes and helicopters until 2022, air force's chief, N.A.K. Browne, said last week.
The Indian Army is also in the process of acquiring new tanks, artillery guns, missile batteries and machine guns, while the Navy is upgrading its fleet with new frigates and submarines.
India's defense sector has been plagued by bribery allegations. The most intense was the Bofors scandal in the 1980s, involving the purchase of Swedish-made artillery guns, which was widely seen as the reason for the electoral defeat of then-Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi of the Congress party in 1989.
Nidhi Goyal, Director, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Pvt. Ltd. said the arrest of the Finmeccanica chief executive will likely delay the ongoing acquisition of weapons in India as the government probes the allegations.
"Definitely, there will be questions in Parliament and there will be more reviews of defense deals. Deals will now take more time," Ms. Goyal said by phone. She said the Finmeccanica episode will affect Indian and foreign defense companies as it will "lead to a further slowdown" in the awarding of defense contracts in India.
Delays will likely rankle the armed forces, which have been urging the government to increase defense spending to modernize the country's Soviet-era equipment as neighbors China and Pakistan also upgrade their military capabilities.
A slowdown in defense purchases will also affect aerospace and defense companies worldwide who are betting on India's plans to spend tens of billions of dollars each year to buy new military equipment. Already, last week, India's defense minister A. K. Antony said the defense budget for the ending March 31 has been cut due to a slowdown in the Indian economy.
Mr. Antony didn't disclose the size of the cut but said that purchases of vital military equipment such as fighter jets won't be affected by the decision.
New Delhi has earmarked 1.93 trillion rupees ($35.7 billion) for defense for the year to the end of March. India will become the fourth-largest defense spender in the world by 2020, behind the U.S., China and Russia, surpassing France, Japan and the U.K., consultant IHS Jane's said last week.
It predicted that India's defense spending will reach $65.4 billion in 2020 despite the budget cuts announced by the defense minister.
"India continues to be a major market for the international defense industry, with major investments in all three services and its strategic missile forces," said James Hardy, Asia-Pacific editor at IHS Jane's.

Cathy Hardin Announces Candidacy to be Miller County's New Tax Collector
Cathy Hardin, Republican, long-time Miller County resident and current administrative assistant to Warden Jerry Campbell at the Arkansas Community Corrections Center, is running for the office of Miller County Tax Collector.
Cathy was born in Texarkana Arkansas, and graduated from Fouke High School in 1980 and she was a student at Texarkana College.
Cathy's father, Jimmy Hardin, was a longtime Miller County Justice of the Peace and that helped steer her in the direction of public service from a young age.
Hardin made the announcement along with an introduction to her personal life to those that may not be familiar with her service. The announcement was made on the new Facebook Page for her campaign - Cathy Hardin For Miller County Tax Collector -On that page she posted,
I announced today my intention to seek the office of Miller County Tax Collector.
After working for former sheriff H. L. Phillips at the Miller County Sheriff's Department I developed a strong interest in public service. In my capacity as administrative assistant for Sheriff Phillips I was responsible for the management of all funds collected, deposited and distributed to or from the sheriff's department, Arkansas Highway Patrol, Arkansas State Police, Arkansas Game and Fish Commission and the Miller County Correctional Facility.
While living in Camden, AR I was the Chief Probation Officer for the District Court of Ouachita County and the City of Camden for Judge Phil Foster. I was responsible for the collection of all money owed to the city and county for partial payments, fines and probation fees. In addition to Probation Officer I also wrote grants for the city.
I am a licensed real estate agent with Texarkana's Legacy Group which provides me with knowledge of the county's property tax procedures. I am a member of the Texarkana, Arkansas and National Real Estate Association.
I believe my experience in the management of money and my dealings with auditors and reporting agencies gives me unique qualifications for the job of tax collector. This coupled with the satisfaction I have gained serving the people of Miller County are my primary reasons for seeking this position.
I am currently employed by the Arkansas Community Corrections as the administrative assistant to Warden Jerry Campbell.
I am married to Joe Ammann, a professional cutting horse trainer and competitor. I am the mother of three adult children, two of whom still reside in Miller County, my oldest is my daughter, a training officer for Arkansas Community Corrections Texarkana, a son that just completed a tour with the United States Air Force and is currently a reserve, and my youngest son is a volunteer fire fighter. I am the step-mom to three grown children and a grandmother to a beautiful granddaughter. Joe and I attend the Circle J Cowboy Church.
My father, Jimmy Hardin, served as Justice of the Peace for Miller County in District 10, for a number of years. His influence as a parent and that of Sheriff Phillips helped me to see the importance of community involvement and commitment to public service."
Her resume is impeccable, and she seems to be more than qualified for the position and this will make a very interesting election. The primary is election is set for May.

Find fun eggnog facts, along with a recipe for the holiday season
Did you know that the "nog" in eggnog may come from "noggin," a small, carved wooden cup used in the Middle Ages.
That's the story, anyway. Chances are if you're an eggnog lover, you don't give a suit of armor where the name came from, just as long as there is plenty of the good stuff on hand.
Smith Dairy in Orrville, Ohio, has created a luscious dessert using their popular beverage. Their eggnog is ultra-pasteurized for an extended shelf life, and is packaged in a quart container with a re-sealable pour spout.
While sipping your eggnog and writing your grocery list for the Holiday Eggnog Bundt Cake with Cranberry-Pecan Filling, enjoy these eggnog factoids.
- The exact origins of eggnog are unknown, but scholars believe that it was a popular drink in medieval England, possibly beginning as a hot milk beverage called posset, common in Europe at the time.
- Milk and eggs were too expensive for most English and European commoners, so eggnog was a drink primarily for the aristocracy until the 17th century, when it made its way to America. There the ingredients were abundant enough for nearly everyone to afford.
- By the mid-19th century, eggnog had become the beverage of choice for winter social occasions, especially Christmas and New Year's Eve, and it remains so today.
Visit smithdairy.com to see more eggnog recipes.
Smith's Holiday Eggnog Bundt Cake with Cranberry-Pecan Filling
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 cup Smith's eggnog
2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup canned whole berry cranberry sauce
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons Smith's eggnog
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour an 8-cup bundt pan. Prepare filling and set aside: Combine 1 cup canned whole berry cranberry sauce (using as many of the whole berries as possible), 1/2 cup pecans and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg.
Prepare cake batter: Combine softened butter, sugar and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add eggnog and blend.
Sift together the dry ingredients and mix into the eggnog mixture. Beat at medium speed for 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl often to be sure all the ingredients are well-mixed.
Pour about half the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Drop the filling by spoonfuls into the batter, taking care not to let the filling touch the pan so that the cake will bake around the filling and the filling will not show through. Top with the remaining cake batter.
Bake for about 40 minutes or until toothpick (or uncooked piece of
spaghetti) comes out clean. Let cool for about 20 minutes and remove from the pan. Let the cake cool completely before adding the glaze. Makes 12 servings.

THE Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne has removed a leading Australian priest who sexually preyed on a disabled and vulnerable woman.
In an embarrassing backflip, the Melbourne Archdiocese has removed Father Tom Knowles from one of the nation's busiest churches just weeks after reinstating him.
The move comes after revelations in Fairfax Media last month that a confidential church inquiry had found he had an improper sexual relationship with disabled woman Jennifer Herrick over a 14-year period in New South Wales.
As a result of this inquiry, Father Knowles was put on administrative leave for 16 months but was returned to active ministry in January this year.
His reinstatement was criticised last month by Ms Herrick and victims' groups, especially in light of the confidential letter sent by the church to Ms Herrick acknowledging ''the harm that can be caused to vulnerable people in such a case.''
Last month, senior church official Father Graeme Duro defended Father Knowles' return to active ministry at St Francis' Church in Melbourne's CBD, stating that the priest had taken ''responsibility for his actions and it is appropriate for him to return to public ministry''.
But in the last fortnight, other senior church officials intervened in the case to have Father Knowles removed.
Church documents obtained by Fairfax Media this week reveal that Melbourne Archbishop Denis Hart has formally withdrawn Father Knowles ''faculties to engage in any public ministry within the jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of Melbourne''. Archbishop Hart is believed to have received letters from concerned Catholic parishioners after Father Knowles' reinstatement was made public.
Ms Herrick said on Saturday that, while she ''believed it was just'' that Father Knowles had been stood down, she was ''still incredulous'' that she had not been told about it immediately by the church. She was only informed after seeking confirmation from Church authorities after hearing a rumour about his removal.
Ms Herrick was 19 years old and suffering from bilateral congenital hip dysplasia - which caused her to walk with an highly abnormal gait - when Father Knowles, who was her family priest, began cultivating a relationship with her and her extended family.
Three years later, the priest initiated sexual intercourse with Ms Herrick, who had not had sex before. The sexual relationship continued for 14 years and Ms Herrick later described it to church investigators as abusive and exploitative conduct.
She said last month that the sex was often hurried, due to the need for secrecy, at times aggressive and often painful, due to factors related to her disability.
Psychologists say a relationship between a priest - who, in the Catholic Church, are meant to be celibate - and a parishioner may be compared to a doctor who has sex with a vulnerable patient.
Father Duro said that it was the responsibility of the bishop to grant ''faculties'' to a priest to undertake public ministry within his diocese. These faculties lapse when a priest is transferred to another diocese, he said. ''Archbishop Hart was overseas when I formally communicated to him in early January the decision to return Father Knowles to ministry,'' Father Duro said.
''On the return of the Archbishop, I met with him and he advised me of his decision to remove the faculties from Father Knowles from public ministry. The Archbishop acted having received my letter and taken note of the actions of Father Knowles that resulted in the complaint being made against him. There is no present intention for Father Knowles to engage in public ministry.''
Ms Herrick made it clear that she only made the case public when, after 18 months of dealing with church authorities, the church's Towards Healing process did not bring about a just end to the matter.
Ms Herrick has received no payment for media contact regarding this issue.
She hopes other women will have the courage to tell their own stories.

Ely Lodge rebuilt
In the Introduction to the Ely Papers (a vast conglomeration of documents held in The National Archives UK) it is commented, perhaps unfairly, that apart from the Irish properties having become impoverished, there was also an obligation to pay 3 000 pounds a year to the 4th Marquis's widow (i.e. Lady Caroline Anne) who lived until 1917, 'the third Ely widow to saddle the estates with a jointure over an unusually long period of time'.
It seems right that Caroline should have been provided for in her husband's will: he died at the early age of forty, an event nobody could have foreseen. It would be interesting to see the schedules giving details of the 4th Marquis's marriage settlement dated 1875. At the time of his accession, his income was 30 000 pounds a year (with 'great accumulations'). By the date of his death this had practically disappeared. By the twentieth century the succeeding generations lived in other parts of the country and no longer bothered much with the Irish estates.
A quiet street in Winchmore Hill
Caroline in due course set up her own establishment at Eversley Park*, Winchmore Hill, Southgate, where we find her aged 56 in 1901, described as 'Peeress' with 'Means' and head of a household comprising her sister-in-law, Ada, aged 39, and 7 servants including a Butler, Cook-Housekeeper, a Lady's Maid (from Paris), two Housemaids, a Kitchen Maid and a Footman.

Full disclosure that, to some of you, may sound a bit more like a disclaimer : I'm embarrassed to admit this, but… I am writing this after having seen the movie in theatres twice. I rarely do that for any film that isn't something like Star Wars, or a superhero movie, or any number of films that benefit greatly from the sensory stimulus of a theatre experience. Love, Simon, a romcom about teenagers, is hardly in the same category. So why, then, did I pay good money for a second theatrical viewing, including concessions, to see this run-of-the-mill film about teenagers when I didn't even do the same for Lady Bird, another film about a teenager that was among my personal picks for one of the best films of 2017?

Every woman's labor and delivery experience is unique. Still, understanding what's typical can help you know what to expect as your due date approaches.
Labor and delivery generally follows a pattern — the cervix softening and opening; the amniotic sac rupturing; the contractions getting stronger and closer together. Sometimes, however, labor and delivery takes surprising twists and turns. You might reconsider your wishes about pain medication, or you might need an unexpected C-section.
However your labor and delivery unfolds, remember that your health and your baby's health are what's most important. Discuss your labor and delivery preferences with your health care provider, including options for pain medication and thoughts about episiotomy and other procedures. Then look forward to welcoming your baby into the world.
After months of anticipation and the rigors of labor and delivery, your attention shifts to caring for your new baby — but you also need to take care of yourself. Postpartum care might involve managing vaginal tears or a C-section wound, sore breasts, leaking milk, urination problems, and hair loss.
And postpartum care isn't limited to your physical health. Postpartum care also includes your mental well-being, such as managing mood swings, irritability, sadness and anxiety.
For the smoothest recovery, share any concerns you might have about postpartum care with your health care provider. Chances are, what you're feeling or wondering about is entirely normal. Count on your health care provider for assurance as you handle postpartum care and adjust to life with a newborn.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Erik Murphy tied a career-high with 24 points just days after dealing with an illness, and No. 10 Florida beat 22nd-ranked Wisconsin 74-56 on Wednesday night.
Murphy made all 10 of his shots, including two 3-pointers, as the short-handed Gators enjoyed a double-digit lead most of the night. He also had seven rebounds.
Mike Rosario added 15 points, four rebounds and four assists for Florida (2-0), and Kenny Boynton chipped in 10.
Sam Dekker and Jared Berggren had 11 points apiece for Wisconsin (1-1).
The Gators, playing without point guard Scottie Wilbekin (suspension) and forward Casey Prather (concussion), essentially won the game with fast starts in both halves. Florida scored the first nine points of the game and the first seven after intermission.
Murphy was involved in both runs.

Filmmaker Oliver Stone will be in Baltimore Thursday, screening his new documentary and fielding questions about it.
"Oliver Stone's Untold History of the United States," a series that re-examines American foreign policy, is now airing on Showtime. Stone was lured to Baltimore because the documentary's key researcher is University of Baltimore historian Eric Singer.
The 10-part documentary that delves into everything from the Cold War to the fall of Communism, to Vietnam and terrorism, is getting a lot of buzz in history circles -- even actor John Cusack, who saw it the other day, called it "really excellent," tweeting: "Stone's new doc series is measured powerful and serious - if not the untold at least the largely ignored history of crucial periods."
Singer has been doing research for Stone's project almost exclusively for the last five years, "in the trenches," as he puts it. He says the end result is a "very rich historical record," that challenges assumptions and shines a light on lesser-known aspects of some of history's greatest dramas.
"We look at 'what might have been'," Singer says.
Singer got involved in the project through his former professor, American University historian Peter Kuznick, who is Stone's partner in the project that includes the documentary and a companion book. The idea was born after September 11 but really got rolling in 2007 when Showtime committed to it.
After years of working for Stone, Singer calls him brilliant and misunderstood. He believes "Untold History," will help the filmmaker erase his reputation as a conspiracy theorist, which took root after he released "JFK."
"The conspiracy theorist aura is completely fallacious," Singer says. "What he is is a historian and his trying to uncover the truth."
After 300 people in six hours claimed seats to see Stone, University of Baltimore officials decided to move the screening to the Charles Theatre.
The event begins at 1 p.m. at the Charles Theatre. They'll show an episode that looks at the decision to drop the atomic bomb. A panel discussion and question and answer session will follow. To get in, people must RSVP.
The panel will include Stone, his partner on the project, American University historian Peter Kuznick, U.S. State Department historian Adam Howard, and John Prados, a senior research fellow at the National Security Archive. Singer will moderate.

Critter Control of Fort Lauderdale

We would like to commend MATT P ..... THE UNDISPUTED RACCOON WHISPERER! We were plagued with a mother raccoon and FIVE
youngsters (about 7 months old). Matt set a couple of traps initially and caught the mother overnight. He then set two more traps and caught two of the siblings. He returned the following day to find them all in a huddle, albeit some inside and some outside the cages. We watched (from a safe distance) as he quickly raced across the boulders and tall landscaping after the remaining 3 young ones and actually caught each of them independently with a net. Amazing! The fact that he trapped three and chased after, and caught, the remaining three with his hands was quite a feat! HATS OFF TO YOU MATT FOR A JOB WELL DONE!!!! Thank you for your skill, expertise and professionalism. We appreciate you!

From the lady Kristi who picks up the phone to Eddie who evaluates the situation and decides a plan to Tim (a
superhero) who sets, catches and removes your problem critters to Jose and team who seal up the house and repair - this is a first- rate operation. Eddie was knowledgeable , professional and thorough. I am especially squeamish and Tim immediately put me at ease- I felt confident in his knowledge and expertise. He was immaculate, detailed , prompt - the consummate professional. These guys deserve their success- I wouldn't think of calling anyone else.

From the first phone call and the initial consultation I knew we partnered with the right group. Prompt and continuous
communication makes Critter Control tops in our book. Matt P. of Critter Control was determined to help us in finding and removing the Raccoons that made our attic their home. Living in So. Florida for over 35 years gives me a great appreciation of the brutal heat we endure, but nothing compares to the drive and will that Matt had while enduring several trips in our attic crawl space in his quest to find and evict our unwanted guests. Just wanted to send a special thanks to Matt and all of the team that made our experience with Critter Control successful.

Critter Control was the BEST option for my attic remediation. From the beginning inspection done by Eddie, to the crew
that actually did the insulation removal, sanitizing, and placing new insulation, these gentlemen were pros. They took detailed photos showing the damage done and any openings that a rodent can enter, so you knew exactly what needed to be done and there were no surprises. You have before and after photos to compare. You'll see all the entry points sealed and vents covered with a wired mesh. Critter control did a phenomenal job. To further add to their professionalism, the lights in one of my bathrooms were no longer working after they blew in the new insulation. Definitely an accident, probably pulled a wire or something, but the manager Steve gave me a call and scheduled an electrician to come out right away and fix it. I have to say that this has been the best customer service I have ever experienced. It was a pleasure doing business with Critter Control, and I would highly recommend them! A+

I was having issues with roof rats in my attic. I live in Parkland and being all the way out west, I was told that the
only way to stop the rats from coming in, is to have the attic sealed. I didn't want to spend the money, but after falling from the attic and shattering my ankle, by trying to do it myself. I found critter control who was in my neighborhood in Heron Bay. I was truly impressed by the prompt response of Critter Control. The salesman Steve was very knowledgeable and reassured me that they will get the job done. The technician Jimmy was very helpful, and he was here 3 times a week, and gave me a lot of information about rodents and other pests. Finally the permanent closure of all the openings was completed and crew chief Jose was excellent. Jose called the day before and let me know what time he will be here and was on time. Jose explained everything that his crew was going to do. After the job was completed, Jose showed me before and after pictures as well as video. I believe you get what you pay for, and Critter Control has been excellent in everything they have done for me. All the staff has been very receptive and very professional. If you have any issues with rodents, call Critter Control, they are the professionals.

I cannot praise this company enough - its management, its employees, its quality, reliability and integrity. From bees
to rodents to raccoons, the Critter Control team knew exactly how to make my home safe again. The team from start to finish - Eddie, Edgar, Steve, Ryan and Jimmy - are experts at what they do and put me at ease immediately with their extensive knowledge and trustworthiness in my home. They run their company like a family and treat customers the same. I sleep so much better at night now and will never move into another home without having Critter Control come out first to secure it from unwanted "roommates".

UCI Opens Disciplinary Proceedings Against FFC, Jean Pitallier and Eric Boyer
UCI Press Service
The International Cycling Union (UCI) decided today to initiate disciplinary proceedings against the French Cycling Federation (FFC) and its President, Mr Jean Pitallier, on the grounds that they colluded in effecting the withdrawal of Paris-Nice from the regulatory framework of the UCI, when there was no reason why the race should not have been held under the aegis of the UCI as an event on the international calendar. By so doing, the FFC and Mr J. Pitallier betrayed their obligations of loyalty towards the UCI and the entire cycling community.
Further to the comments recently made about the UCI ProTour by Mr Eric Boyer, President of the International Association of Professional Cycling Groups (AIGCP), the UCI wrote today to Mr Boyer asking for his resignation from the UCI ProTour Council.
The UCI has also decided to open disciplinary proceedings against Mr Boyer. The grounds for the complaint are that he encouraged members of the AIGCP to contravene the UCI rules by asking them to take part in Paris-Nice when the event is not on the UCI calendar, which means that member teams of the AIGCP are not entitled to take part in the race.

Bob Glauber's NFL insider: NFL insists New Jersey Super Bowl will not be deterred by weather
With memories of last week's blizzard still fresh, concerns arose about what might happen if a similar storm hit the New York area around the time of next year's Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium.
But ask the man who was in charge of running more than half the Super Bowls ever played, and he has two words for anyone anxious about what might happen: "Relax, OK?"
Jim Steeg, the NFL's senior vice president of special events from 1979-2005, believes the game will be played with minimal complications. And even if weather issues arise, the league and local government agencies will handle potential problems.
In other words, the show will go on.
"In New York and New Jersey, the one thing you've got is the ability to clear everything in the event of a storm," Steeg said. "After [last week's] storm, it took a day and everything was back to normal."
And even if it snows on game day, Steeg believes the area will be prepared to provide safe travel for fans to and from the game.
"You've got all the equipment there, all the resources to bring to bear, and a lot of mass transportation," said Steeg, who became the Chargers' chief operating officer after leaving the NFL. He is now a sports business consultant in San Diego. "I don't think there will be a problem."
The NFL has contingency plans -- including changing the date of the -- game, currently Feb. 2 -- in the event of a snowstorm.
"If we have to make adjustments, we will," NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said. "We have had contingency plans for the previous 47 Super Bowls."
The contingency plans might not be limited to just snow.
"We are now working on a plan in the event an asteroid hits," McCarthy quipped, referring to an asteroid that flew just 17,000 miles past the earth Friday, and to a meteorite that hit the atmosphere near Chelyabinsk, Russia.
Steeg said past experiences with bad weather -- even in cities that normally aren't hit with ice and snow -- have prepared the NFL for the worst. The one variable that's different is next year's game will be the first in an outdoor stadium in a northern city.
But weather issues have surfaced before. A snow and ice storm hit the Dallas area before Super Bowl XLV in 2011. An ice storm shut down Atlanta in the days leading up to Super Bowl XXXIV in 2000. And freezing temperatures and a nasty traffic jam caused by then-vice president George H.W. Bush's motorcade before Super Bowl XVI in Pontiac, Mich., in 1982 caused significant problems. One of the 49ers' buses, with coach Bill Walsh and quarterback Joe Montana aboard, was stuck half a mile from the Silverdome and was late for warm-ups.
"The joke was I guess we knew if the 49ers won the toss, they were going to kick off, because the defense was there, but the offense wasn't," Steeg said.
Despite being a meticulous planner, Walsh appeared unfazed.
"Coach Walsh was pretty loose on the bus," Montana said in an interview several years later. "[Walsh] said, 'I've got the radio on, and we're leading 7-0. The trainer's calling the plays."
The 49ers went on to win their first of three Super Bowl titles under Walsh, beating the Bengals, 26-21.
Gleason's inspiring story continues
Former Saints safety Steve Gleason, diagnosed in 2011 with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), will participate in the fourth annual Rock 'n' Roll New Orleans Half Marathon on Feb. 24. Gleason, 34, will be pushed in his wheelchair by his brother-in-law, Vinnie Varisco.
"For a guy who can no longer walk and has trouble speaking, Steve is the last guy you would expect to participate in the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon in New Orleans," said Clare Durrett, spokeswoman for Team Gleason, an organization dedicated to raising awareness and funds for ALS research. "But, always inspiring, Steve is continuing to push the limits of what he can do through innovation and support. Having his brother-in-law push him in the half-marathon is just another example of how he continues to truly live despite seemingly insurmountable adversity. Steve says 'awesome ain't easy,' but sometimes, he makes it seem that way."
Quick hits
It was a little more than three years ago that Packers cornerback Charles Woodson beat out Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis for Defensive Player of the Year. Now Woodson, 36, has been released by the Packers, and Revis, who turns 28 in July, might be traded.
Former second-round pick Titus Young has now been released twice in two weeks. After being claimed off waivers by the Rams, coach Jeff Fisher decided to part ways with the wide receiver. Young frequently clashed with Lions coaches and once had a fight with teammate Louis Delmas.
That the Browns are considering a trade of quarterback Brandon Weeden is no surprise. Consider: newly hired vice president of player personnel Michael Lombardi, while serving as an NFL Network analyst last year, called the first-round selection of Weeden a "panicked disaster."

On May 28, 2014, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court published two opinions about whether juries could hear from experts. In Commonwealth v. Walker, the Court said an expert could tell the jury about the traps and weaknesses involved in eyewitness witness testimony. But in Commonwealth v. Alicia, the Court said an expert could not tell the jury about problems with the truthfulness of confessions. Each opinion featured a different 4-2 vote among six of the Court's Justices.
This juxtaposition seems so bizarre that the press in our state has noticed. How does one court, on one day, publish two opinions on virtually the same issue, and end up facing in two completely opposite directions?
The explanation that jumps out from the opinions is the recognition of research and science. In the Walker majority opinion, Justice Debra Todd discusses how much scientific work on eyewitness testimony has taken place in the last twenty years, since the Court last examined the issue. In those decades, she says, "advances in scientific study have strongly suggested that eyewitnesses are apt to erroneously identify a person…when certain factors are present, " and she cites the 2011 opinion of the New Jersey Supreme Court in New Jersey v. Henderson, widely regarded as one of the leading cases on the subject. The scientific consensus is strong: "it is beyond serious contention that the statistical evidence on eyewitness inaccuracy is substantial…" Over the course of the last thirty years, forty-four states have recognized this scientific work and decided that trial courts may allow experts to testify about the problems of eyewitness identification. Ten of the eleven U.S. Courts of Appeals have done so as well. (False eyewitness identifications have occurred in almost seventy-five percent of all DNA-based reversals of wrongful convictions.) Thus Justice Todd and the other Justices in the majority in Walker said that Pennsylvania must recognize the evidence that science has brought to bear.
In contrast, what does the Alicia opinion say about the science on the interrogation of suspects, and how various interrogation techniques may lead to false confessions? (False confessions have occurred in about twenty-five percent of all DNA-based reversals of wrongful convictions.) Considerable scientific consensus exists on these issues as well; the leading scientists who work on the issue of false confessions published a standard-setting white paper, "Police-Induced Confessions: Risk Factors and Recommendation" for the journal Law and Human Behavior five years ago. Somehow, this scientific work never even comes up in the Alicia opinion. It is as if the research on false identifications simply does not exist.
Chief Justice Ronald Castille is at least consistent in these two cases: he wants no experts in court on either eyewitness identifications or confessions, so he dissented in Walker and joined the majority in Alicia. Castille's dissenting opinion in the Walker case gives us some insight into the thinking of those who want none of this science before the jury. In his dissent, Chief Justice Castille scorns the very idea that there could be real scientific work on these subjects. Indeed, he puts the words science or scientific in derisive quotation marks eight times in just the first three pages of his opinion. While he admits that "a properly trained chemist can usually reliably explain the chemical composition of a substance," science about human beings cannot claim any reliability: "studies of human beings, human nature, human perception, and human recollection inevitably have a heavy dose of subjectivity." Justice Castille's position betrays a strong misunderstanding of what science is, and of the process of doing scientific work and of using the scientific method to test a hypothesis. The real question is not whether we are dealing with so called "hard science" — work done with beakers and bunsen burners. Rather, the question is whether the work is done reliably and rigorously, according to the scientific method, and in accord with principles and protocols that protect against human biases in the laboratory. So for now, juries in Pennsylvania will have to do without the best scientific knowledge on why we might have false confessions.
But, even more important, the issue of whether experts can testify on these subjects is not a new one; courts in most jurisdictions resolved this issue years ago. Instead, every institution that forms part of our criminal justice system in PA should be focused on prevention: establishing protocols for police to follow that will keep dangerous mistakes eyewitness testimony and interrogation from happening in the future. The research is there; the best practices are known. Nevertheless, we remain stuck in the past, arguing about expert witnesses.

Cobra 8510 Immobiliser Fob Programming
August 9, 2016 Electronics, Kit Car, Mazda
I recently picked up a 1995 Maxda MX5 ready to strip down to use as the donor vehicle for an MEV Exocet kit car project I want to build.
The car only came with one key and one immobiliser fob and I didn't want to risk losing the only one so I decided to look into getting an additional fob.
Initially it was looking like I would need a PIN number or take it to a specialist to get a new fob provided and coded to the car but after a short while I found some instructions online to do this yourself.
All you need is a working fob (which I had) and a new fob, which I managed to find for £15.00 on ebay. Then it is a case of following the instructions:
– Disable the immobiliser with your current, working fob.
– Switch your ignition on and off three times and then back on within seven seconds
– TheRead More

On the morning of Tuesday, 10 December, Israeli forces entered the Palestinian town of Al-Jiftlik in the Jordan Valley and demolished a family house and two agricultural structures.
The bulldozer, accompanied by Israeli military jeeps and a military ambulance arrived at the village at around 6:30 in the morning before commencing the demolition.
The home that was demolished had initially been built around seven years ago. The Israelis had issued a demolition order on the structure saying it was illegally built in a closed military zone.
Immediately after the Israeli army razed the structures, villagers, accompanied by staff from local NGOs and international activists, began to rebuild.
The rebuilding began with the agricultural structures that housed much of the village's livestock, the primary source of income for the community and for the family who lost their home.
After the completion of the livestock shelters, the villagers say they will begin to rebuild the family's home.
"They are rebuilding their animal structure before they rebuild their own house because this is their life," Fathy Khdirat of Jordan Valley Solidarity explained.
"They earn their income from the cattle. If they lose their cattle they will lose their future."
According to Khdirat, this is the third time this particular house has been demolished in the past month. And it is not the only home that has been destroyed; Israeli forces razed an adjacent house earlier this month.
According to villagers, there was a court injunction issued against the demolition of this particular house. It is unsure however if this injunction still stood at the time the demolition took place.
There are 18 people in these two families who have been affected. They will remain homeless, within the care of others in the village, until their houses are rebuilt. However there is no certainty that such structures will not be demolished again.
"How can we talk about a viable Palestinian state if the Palestinians are not protected in their state? If they can't imagine that they can build a house and it will be safe from the Israeli bulldozer," Khdirat went on to explain.
The same morning, Israeli forces also demolished two steel agricultural structures in the Palestinian village of Fasayil, to the South of Al-Jiftlik.
This incident similarly comes merely days after another series of demolitions within the immediate area in the Jordan Valley. Last week there were demolitions in the nearby village of Al Auja, where four family homes were destroyed along with several other structures.
Since the beginning of the year, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), over 558 Palestinian homes in the West Bank and East Jerusalem have been destroyed by Israeli Forces.
Al-Jiftlik is one of the largest and oldest Palestinian villages in the Jordan valley. It is located in what is known as Area C of the West Bank, the 60% of the West Bank which falls under full Israeli military and civil control.
Al-Jiftlik's land encompasses around 185,000 dunams, all of which is under full Israeli administrative control. Palestinian building and land management is illegal within this territory unless authorized by the Israeli civil administration; however, building permits are rarely, if ever, granted to Palestinians.
However, since the beginning of the occupation in 1967, seven Israeli settlements have been constructed, resulting in the loss of approximately 7,000 dunams of land belonging to residents of Al Jiftlik. Additional land has been confiscated due to the creation of many Israeli military bases situated throughout the area.
Around 90% of the Jordan Valley is currently under full Israeli administrative control. Since the beginning of the occupation in 1967, the Palestinian population has dwindled from nearly 320,000 to about 60,000, around 70% of of which resides in the city of Jericho.
According to a report by UNOCHA, building permits within Area C are very rarely issued by the civil administration. Between January 2000 and September 2007, 94% of of building permit applications made by Palestinians were refused.

Soon after Hugh Hefner's 21-year-old son was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence, the 2011 Playmate of the Year sought a restraining order against him Monday.
According to Lt. Jari Faulkner, 20-year-old Claire Sinclair — apparently Marston Hefner's on-again, off-again girlfriend — sought the order against him from Pasadena police.
Marston Hefner was arrested Sunday about 10 p.m. at his Pasadena home in the 100 block of West Del Mar Boulevard, said Lt. Rick Aversano, a watch commander with the Pasadena Police Department.
Local news from across Southern California
Marston Hefner has since been released on $20,000 bail, Aversano said.
Pasadena police would not identify the alleged victim, although Marston Hefner reportedly shared the home with Sinclair.
"We responded to a fight between boyfriend and girlfriend," Aversano said. "After checking the victim, officers confirmed minor injuries to the victim consistent with a recent assault, but the victim was not (hospitalized)."

Daniel Drake arrived in pioneer Cincinnati, a city of 750 people, at the age of fifteen. He trained as a physician and founded the Medical College of Ohio in Cincinnati, the oldest medical college west of the Allegheny Mountains which merged with the University of Cincinnati in 1896. A trailblazer in frontier medical care, Drake wrote about the natural habitat and diseases of the area and established early hospitals and infirmaries in Ohio. Drake believed in a great future for the city, and his 1815 book Picture of Cincinnati earned him a national reputation and encouraged more Ohio settlement.

|Fire Fighting
|Written by Matt Ryan
When a large scale fire breaks out there are several advantages to beginning rainmaking operations in the area:
More land has been affected by wildfires in recent years than at anytime in the last 50 years. Due to increasing climate change in large areas and excessive fuels throughout our forest systems, this trend is more likely to continue than not.
In fact, major forest fires are impossible to put out under the conditions that led to them beginning in the first place. Excessive dryness, low humidity, winds, create a fire too large to extinguish and efforts then are only focused on containment, if possible, and protection of homes and property, if possible. But until the conditions that existed when the fire started change, there's not much more fire-fighters can do.
First off, because the weather is dynamic and the atmosphere is producing many different states at once – low pressure here, high pressure there, cool moist air masses in one, hot dry in another – it is possible to draw a flow of cooler, moister air into a region from another region. This causes a noticeable increase in humidity and a decrease in temperatures – both welcomed greatly by firefighters – usually within a 24 hour period.
If the winds are harsh and erratic, even wide containment of the fire is difficult. As the flow of cooler, moister air from the other region arrives, the winds generally lie down and become more steady in their direction – again, greatly welcomed in fire fighting.
The October, 2007 Southern California fires
A striking, and tragic, example of what could be done, but isn't, took place this year when fires began in the Southern California area on October 20. Extremely dry conditions throughout the region due to prolonged drought coupled with record level Santa Ana winds blowing out of the Great Basin desert to the east, created the "Perfect Storm" fire conditions and over the next three days fires spread, grew and eventually burned down massive amounts of personal property and large areas of land.

Christian Bible and book publisher Thomas Nelson announced that it has pulled a book by noted conservative historian David Barton on Founding Father Thomas Jefferson for what it claimed were factual issues with the text. According to the Nashville Tennessean newspaper, Barton's book, The Jefferson Lies, "claims to expose liberal myths about Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence and the nation's third president."
The publisher began getting cold feet about the book when some historical scholars challenged its factual authenticity, and "a group of ministers from Cincinnati called on Nelson to cancel the book," reported the Tennessean.
Casey Francis Harrell, Thomas Nelson's director of corporate communications for Thomas Nelson, said that after reviewing a number of complaints about the book, the publisher decided to cancel publication. "Because of these deficiencies, we decided that it was in the best interest of our readers to cease its publication and distribution," said Harrell.
When Thomas Nelson first published The Jefferson Lies, it promoted the book as Barton's attempt to counter revisionist history and tell the truth about Jefferson. "History books routinely teach that Jefferson was an anti-Christian secularist, rewriting the Bible to his liking, fathering a child with one of his slaves, and little more than another racist, bigoted colonist — but none of those claims are actually true," declared a Thomas Nelson press release about the book.
One of Barton's chief antagonists appears to be Dr. Warren Throckmorton, a psychology professor at Grove City College in Pennsylvania, who is more recognizable as a onetime proponent of reparative therapy for homosexuals, but who took time enough to publish a book attacking Barton's take on Jefferson. Throckmorton claimed to have closely checked Barton's work on Jefferson and found that what he wrote didn't match the available research. "We checked all the footnotes [from Barton's book] and we found they didn't support what he wrote," Throckmorton told the Tennessean.
As just one example, "Throckmorton said Barton claims Jefferson was an investor in an early American printing of the Bible, when it turned out that Jefferson only bought one copy," reported the Tennessean. "He also claimed that Barton downplayed Jefferson's views on slavery. Throckmorton said that Barton wrote that Jefferson owned more than 200 slaves but said that Virginia laws banned him from freeing those slaves. 'That's not true,' said Throckmorton. 'Jefferson freed two slaves, one in 1794 and one in 1796. So you can't say he didn't free slaves, because he did free two slaves.'"
According to the Tennessean, Barton "said he has documents to back up all the claims in his book. For example, he said that the laws in Jefferson's times fined any owners who freed slaves and that Jefferson would have freed his slaves if he could have. He said Throckmorton doesn't understand how complex the laws about freeing slaves were. 'This is one of the cases where he is just nuts,' he said."
Throckmorton also challenges Barton's claim that Jefferson helped to print an early Bible published in America, claiming that the founder purchased only one copy. On his website, Wallbuilders.com, Barton answers that claim, noting that not only did Jefferson publicly attach his name as a personal endorsement of the publication of the John Thompson Bible, "the largest Bible ever published in America to that time," but he also noted that "the Thompson Bible was one of many examples I provided to demonstrate occasions where Jefferson helped promote/fund/print the traditional unedited Bible."
The group of Cincinnati ministers who took exception to Barton's book included black ministers who were offended about the author's defense of Jefferson over the issue of slavery. The Rev. Damon Lynch, pastor of the mostly black New Jerusalem Baptist Church in Cincinnati, voiced the predominant complaint when he argued that The Jefferson Lies "glosses over Jefferson's real record on slaveholding, and minimizes Jefferson's racist views." Added Chris Beard, a pastor at Cincinnati's First Christian Assembly of God church: "We are protesting as concerned believers in the evangelical Christian community, who believe that many are being misled by David Barton's teachings."
Not only did the ministers condemn the book, but threatened that they would have stopped purchasing Thomas Nelson books and Bibles had the publisher not bowed to their demands to pull the Barton title. "We love Thomas Nelson," Lynch said. "My library is filled with Thomas Nelson books and I didn't want to stop doing business with them."
According to World Magazine, other historical scholars have expressed concerns over Barton's work as well. "Glenn Moots of Northwood University wrote that Barton in The Jefferson Lies is so eager to portray Jefferson as sympathetic to Christianity that he misses or omits obvious signs that Jefferson stood outside 'orthodox, creedal, confessional Christianity,'" reported the magazine. "A second professor, Glenn Sunshine of Central Connecticut State University, said that Barton's characterization of Jefferson's religious views is 'unsupportable.'"
And after evaluating Barton's popular video America's Godly Heritage, Gregg Frazer of the Master's College in California questioned a number of Barton's claims, such as that 52 of the 55 delegates to America's constitutional convention were "orthodox, evangelical Christians" — a number Barton claimed he got from author M.E. Bradford's book A Worthy Company, according to World Magazine.
According to World Magazine, among Barton's staunch champions are Mike Huckabee, Newt Gingrich, Michele Bachmann, and other neo-conservative leaders. Barton "questions how many of his new critics have actually read his work, especially The Jefferson Lies," World reported. "Barton concedes that Jefferson doubted some traditional Christian doctrines, but argues that these doubts did not emerge until the last couple of decades of his life. He says that all of his books, including his latest, are fully documented with footnotes, and that critics who look at the original sources he is using often change their minds."
