Snow arrives, 1-4 inches expected; Winter Weather Advisory in effect
Break out the shovels and sleds. Snow has arrived and has already
covered yards and some side roads.
In addition, the winter weather has prompted reduced speeds on parts of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and is also causing flight delays at Philadelphia International Airport.
Airport spokeswoman Stacy Jackson said shortly before noon that the airport is seeing delays of a little over an hour, mostly on arriving flights.
Turnpike officials have imposed a 45 mph speed limit on almost 300 miles of the turnpike from the Ohio line to the Morgantown Interchange due to snowfall.
The 45 mph speed limit restriction is now in place on nearly 300 miles of the turnpike from milepost 0 to milepost 298.
No truck or trailer restrictions have been imposed at this point.
Drivers are being urged to stay a safe distance behind snowplows and plow trains.
But don't panic - or rush the supermarket for bread, milk and eggs. This isn't going to be a big storm. At least that's the forecast.
The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday. They are calling for anywhere from 2-4 inches of snow across the region. Continued...
Here's their forecast:
Snow accumulations 2 to 4 inches, with a chance that rain could mix in across the far southern and eastern portions of the region, which would cut down on the accumulations.
Snow will spread over the region near daybreak in Northeastern Maryland and northern Delaware, then hit the I-95 corridor through the Philadelphia region by mid- to late-morning.
Motorists should expect snow-covered roadways and reduced visibility
Temperatures will be in the mid-30s.
A Winter Weather Advisory for snow means that periods of snow will likely cause trouble traveling. Motorists should expect snow-covered roads and limited visibility. Bridges and overpasses are likely to be slick.
The storm is developing in Texas and will track just south of our area Saturday. With cold air already in place, plus a southern track like that, it adds up to likely snow over much of our area.
But the storm is not expected to strengthen too much, or bring up enough moisture, to make it a major storm but it should still leave at least a couple of inches of snow on much of the region.
Snow should start around daybreak Saturday, or even a bit earlier in western counties. With temperatures below freezing, the snow will stick on untreated surfaces. The snow should continue through much of the day, keeping temperatures in the mid-30s at best.
The snow is expected to be heaviest between 9 a.m. and noon but should continue throughout the day. Some melting could occur when the snow gets lighter. Continued...
Most of the area is expected to get 2 to 4 inches of snow, and that includes the Philadelphia area, and even counties just south of there. Enough rain should mix in farther south to limit any accumulation.
The storm will move out Saturday evening, with increasing winds and colder air moving in for Sunday. Then, the new year starts of cold - even for January.

Hard News: Must-have Mayoralty

Yes - the academic and profile in courage for standing up to the bully-boy libel action of David Irving. My only excuse is that it's Friday afternoon, and my brain is already powering down until the RSC's Seagull on Sunday. Without Ian McKellen, but never mind: Chekhov, one of the great theatre companies in the English-speaking world, damn fine seats. Must not bitch.
Yes I did, and it is funny - but would be much more amusing if I didn't think we've only just begun, especially i f there's still a double digit poll gap going into the Christmas recess. Then, I suspect, you can expect 2008 to be a year that will make the 2005 campaign and the later spasm of cross-party panty sniffing look genteel by comparison. I really, really want to be proven wrong.
Must not bitch
Wellington was hopelessly spoiled - they cancelled the non-Ian Seagull for and extra Ian Lear.
I keep thinking I should write them up even after all this time. Anyway, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
You might enjoy this article, Craig. it's a conversation with Deborah Lipstadt and a couple of other people, on Holocaust denial.
*swoon* I would so turn straight for that woman... and what a delightfully eloquent and thoughtful symposium - not least for the mutually respectful and civil tone when differences arose. Thanks for the link, Deborah.

Unless you're just doing it because you're bored, he's not actually worth arguing with, because when confronted with his own fabrication or foolishness, he simply convinces himself of the next thing.
My experience was that he doesn't argue at all. He just makes personal attacks. That's in his works and his responses to criticism.
The only thing of interest about the views of Wishart is that they are somehow published in glossy form without running a loss. It seems like business model is that Investigate is really a circular and it sells advertising. It could probably sell a lot more if it didn't include whack views every second page, but it's Wishart's soapbox and he's allowed to pay opportunity costs to stand on it.
Heh, Danyl, it looks like Ian's rewritten the entire book just in the comments field. I'm tempted to find out why he thinks moral relativism has brought the West down, but I know it's just a teaser with no substance the way 100% of the articles I've ever wasted 5 minutes of my life in the doctor's waiting room reading have turned out to be. He'll have a specialist definition of moral relativism which will probably turn out to be equivalent with socialism, which is in turn equivalent with Nazism, which is in turn equivalent to Islam, and run by queers.
"Tamihere's support coming, as you might expect, from angry conservatives." I read through all the comments and couldn't see any support from "angry conservatives".

What if I'm both bored and masochistic?

Ryan, you are! But trolling Wishart is very tempting, I can see that.

Yup, although I draw the line on them disagreeing about the value of using rationality and courtesy.

Why Don't We Abolish Irregular Verbs and Nouns?
My 4-year old daughter haven't learned about irregular verbs and nouns yet, so she often uses the regular versions like "hided", "breaked", "mouses", "fishes", etc.. Obviously kids learn the rules and try to consistently apply them instead of learning the usage of every word case by case. So, they face the same exact frustration that ESL students do, which was a bit of a surprise to me. I thought kids learn in a more empirical, case-by-case manner, rather than relying on logical patterns.
This lead me to look up the history of irregular verbs and nouns. If native speakers of English have a hard time learning it at first, how did irregular verbs and nouns come into existence in the first place? It's as if some sadistic English teacher invented them so that he would have more things to test his students on.
I found this entry on Wikipedia about Indo-European ablaut which explains the history of it. Not being a linguist, I didn't quite get some of the things explained there, but I understood that the irregular verbs and nouns came from different linguistic systems within which they were perfectly regular. In other words, the English language has incorporated different systems of inflection, and now we are stuck with them.
But I feel that this is something that we could all agree to change, just as the whole world (except for the Americans) decided at one point to adopt the metric system. We just have to deal with the grammar Nazis cringe and squirm uncontrollably for several years until they get over it. We would have one less thing we have to study at school, and the same time and effort can be used to learn something more meaningful and useful.
@Dyske ... "Actually, this shouldn't be so hard to do if the president of the US wanted to do this. He could for instance make the regular versions of the irregular verbs officially acceptable among all governmental communication." ... Actually this has been tried by presidents from Teddy Roosevelt to Ronald Reagan (and probably others) yet most people still use through, though, and although instead of thru, tho, and altho. Congress even forbade Teddy from using gov't funds to implement his reforms.
FWIW, I've been using thru, tho, and altho for over 30 years and people still send me corrections!

language development is a complex process, I don't believe there exists any one way to change the cumbersome aspects of language - irregular verbs/nouns as examples. But it points to the multitudes of possibilities that languages offers, and as languages reflection, and dialectic with action and thought. The cumbersome historical routes specific words, and even structures - follow from the equally rich histories of ways humans can organize their social, cultural existence - including its philosophical/ logical ideas. Bumpy languages - and English is one - reflect bumpy histories etc. I think the pluralizing rule could logically go either way - and that is because logically there is no contradiction, simply two methods used to get to the same symbol.

I like irregular verbs. They add color and diversity. And some words have both a regular and irregular form, which are NOT perfectly equivalent. I just left a post about pled versus pleaded before I came to this post. If the moderators put it up, take a look. If you like expressive writing, the more words in your toolkit the better, but they have to be reasonably common, easily recognised, so arcane words are not that helpful. Because of the history of English, the irregular verbs are the most common.

I must admit I had a good laugh when I read it. I really do pity American/English poor kids who only have to "learn" (actually this is acquisition, rather than learning, if they are exposed to the language at a very young age, and no worries it is not as painful as depicted in the article) just a couple of irregularities in the English language. Plenty of non-native English speakers managed to study it (in school, not by exposure!) along with their mother tongue - most of the time more sophisticated and elaborate in structure of the grammar.
As a native speaker of Polish (where a verb is not only in a different form for each person of plural and singular but also depends on the case applied - 7 of them!!!) I am happy to claim all Polish speaking adults manage to decline perfectly and have no post trauma. Rather quite opposite - it gives us extra ability and ease in learning other languages.
Please, don't be afraid to use your grey cells, don't worry, your brain is capable of much more ;)

Do you really want it?

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU rather than German which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five year phase-in plan that would be known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of the "k". This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have 1 less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like "fotograf" 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be ekspekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent "e"s in the language is disgraseful, and they should go away.
By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.
After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi to understand ech ozer. Ze drem vil finali kum tru! And zen world!

Some English verbs have become irregular when they didn't used to be irregular... many verbs, for instance "sing/sang/sung", developed from the Proto-Indo-European system of regular ablaut. "sneak/snuck" and "dive/dove" are also relatively new developments.

Hi Porsche,
I may have. Could you elaborate on that? Am I correct in saying that there were multiple systems of inflection? If so, are you saying that these multiple systems of inflection were part of the one and the only linguistic system? In other words, they didn't come from different linguistic systems.
But then, I guess this becomes a question of what constitutes a "linguistic system".

Dyske, I think you may have misunderstood an important point from the very link you posted: "...I understood that the irregular verbs and nouns came from different linguistic systems within which they were perfectly regular..." Actually, no. they didn't come from different systems. They came from our system. They have always been a part of English as long as there has been English and before. Irregular verbs are the way they are because they are the oldest verb forms from our "original" proto-language. It's no accident the the most common and utile verbs are also the ones that are irregular (i.e., to be, to go, to have, to do, etc.). It's their very familiarity and commonality that allows them to retain their irregular forms through the generations.

Actually, this shouldn't be so hard to do if the president of the US wanted to do this. He could for instance make the regular versions of the irregular verbs officially acceptable among all governmental communication. In other words, both versions would be considered correct in the eyes of the government. There is no need to force anyone to use the regular versions either. We just have to wait a few generations, because the public schools and parents will stop correcting our children. Like my own daughter, all the children will use the regular versions naturally. I would imagine that in a few generations, the regular versions will be more common because they will come naturally.

You remind me of the spelling reform initiated by people like Webster, Bernard Shaw, and others. They tried and tried to change the spelling of English claiming that there is no one to one correspondence between sound and spelling in English. But they were not successful, well may be Webster was a little bit successful in changing some spellings that lead to the change between American and British English.
I think it is not only "grammar Nazis" would object to the change but ordinary people as well. You can not change something people are so well accustomed to.

Wars have been fought over this. When I studied Spanish with other students all from different countries we were given the assignment to talk about the roots of our native languages. From other classmates I learned a about German, Japanese, French, Portuguese, etc. But for my part, I had no knowledge. A few searches via Google and after reading articles in wikipedia and other places, I learned a bit about the history of English. Basically English started in the days of the Saxons when the UK was settled by a bunch of tribes. Then in 1066, the Normans invaded England and for 400 years only the lower classes continued to speak English. The upper classes and official language were a form of French.
So blame the French!

I was going to leave what would probably become an increasingly nonsensical bluster of why this idea challenges base assumptions I have about language, but it turned out this smart guy has already explained it in great detail. In short, language isn't arbitrary, so you can't just make a rule and thus it's so.

Spring is here, the gloves are off, the boots are back in storage, and I'm ready to face a new season. That means it's time to throw my beauty routine into high gear.
First order of business: Get rid of unwanted facial hair. When I mentioned this to my friends at Olay, they slipped me their fab Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo. In two easy steps—and eight minutes—the fuzz was gone!
I first applied a layer of Skin Guarding Balm to protect and condition the skin. Then came the Hair Removal Cream, which didn't cause burning, irritation, or reddening, unlike some of the harsher products I've used. My sensitive skin was happy—and my face felt smooth, soothed, and moisturized.
Next stop: Tackle my dry winter skin and give those crow's feet a run for their money. When the Olay folks suggested I try their Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream Fragrance-Free, I just about jumped for joy. I'd been hearing about America's #1 selling anti-aging moisturizer* for years but had to bypass it, because my skin is scent sensitive. Now I, too, can finally enjoy Olay's best-selling moisturizer.
I fell in love with its luxurious formula, which contains an amino-peptide complex that helps regenerate cells at the skin's surface and retain moisture. The cream also fortifies at an intracellular level with hylauronic acid—which sounds scary, but it's actually a naturally occurring, anti-aging substance. Finally, glycerin helps restore volume and fullness to the skin.
Not that I needed further convincing, but my Olay pals shared these cool study results with me about Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream Fragrance-Free:
- It significantly smoothed skin's surface after only 24 hours of treatment, with effects progressively increasing at two and four weeks
- It hydrated better than many luxury creams costing up to $500 in a single-use lab-hydration test versus 15 luxury creams
I'm sold—and ready to get my smooth on this spring!
*Based on unit sales of Micro-Sculpting Cream outlets during 12 months ending May 2011.

Would anyone like to start a monthly Raw Food Potluck in CT with me? I am aware that there are Raw Foodists who meet in Trumbull, CT with a Raw Food Coach/Teacher and when I looked at their calendar it doesn't look like they meet monthly. And I'm aware of the Alchemy Juice Bar in Hartford. I'm friends with the owners. But, they don't have monthly Raw Potlucks either.
I live in the Greater Hartford Area and am willing to travel. I thought we could meet in different counties every month if that would help, or depending on the interest, we could just keep it in the Greater Hartford Area. I'm open to the possibilities.
I just can't believe I'm the only Raw Foodist in this area!!!! Let's make delicious dishes to share and support eachother in this Raw Life.

Our Truth, Our Voice
$470 million
MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif.—California Pizza Kitchen Inc. and Golden Gate Capital today announced the completion of the previously announced acquisition of the Los Angeles-based restaurant chain for $18.50 per share in cash, or about $470 million.
On May 24, the companies announced that CPK and some affiliates of Golden Gate Capital Opportunity Fund had signed a merger agreement.
California Pizza Kitchen was founded in 1985. Of the chain's 265 restaurants, 205 are company-owned and 60 operate under franchise or license agreements.
Here's a look at African American people and issues making headlines throughout the country.
Alabama Freeman A. Hrabowski, president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, will address the annual African American Business Council luncheon on June 28. Hrabowski, who is chairman of President Barack Obama's Advisory Commission on Education Excellence for African Americans, has a national reputation for his work studying the performance of minority students in math and science. Hrabowski, named one of the 10 best college presidents in the country by Time magazine, was a child leader in the Civil Rights Movement in Birmingham in the 1960s.
Arkansas The Liberty Counsel filed a motion and a brief in United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas seeking to intervene on behalf of a Concepts of Life crisis pregnancy center to defend against a suit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Center for Reproductive Rights. The groups seek to impose a permanent injunction before the Human Heartbeat Protection Act goes into effect July 18. Liberty Counsel also filed a brief opposing the ACLU's request for an injunction. The "Heartbeat" bill states that when a woman seeks an abortion at or after the 12th week, doctors must test for a fetal heartbeat before an abortion is performed and inform the pregnant mother that the child in her womb has a heartbeat. If a heartbeat is detected, a woman cannot have an abortion, except in cases of rape, incest, and if a mother's life is in danger. "As we promised when the legislation was introduced, Liberty Counsel will defend this law without reservation for the people of Arkansas, born and pre-born," said Matt Staver, founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel. "No right is more foundational than the right to life. Without life, all other rights are irrelevant," concluded Staver.

The best band on the bill (my opinion ghostland and railroad come in second) got a tent set in 2010 and it was amazing!!! Anyone else think this will happen? Let's talk UMPHREYS
Umphrey's is certainly a must see for me. I'm guessing they will do something like '10. One on the main stage and another in revival. At least one late night.
Tree Love & the Apple Sauce
Idk why they've never been at the top of my list, but after watching a few youtube videos, I've changed my mind. Kickin myself for not seeing them when I had the chance, but super excited to see them this year
What did you like about the late night tent set? Was the set particularly good? I prefer the mainstage for UM. The tent stages get pretty crowded and I'd prefer to be out under the stars, but the music doesn't sound as good outside of the tent.
Id have to throw in that the light show is better on the main stage. But Im getting my Umph fix the weekend before @ Summercamp so whatever happens at Waka is just a bonus to me. But for Waka, the later the set, the better IMO
I don't suffer from insanity. In fact, I rather enjoy it.
Well in 2010 their tent set was pretty intense...

Ya you could kinda tell the tent show was a little more intense. I just hope theres isnt any sound problems like last year.
I was swinging an air ax during the tent show two years ago. Quite well I might add

Optimizing Your Cisco Envir.: Driving Innovation in IT's Era of the New Normal
Hide details
Peter Waterhouse, CA Technologies; Jim Frey, Enterprise Management Associates: Mark Balch, Cisco
To increase agility, drive workforce productivity and better support customers', business is demanding the delivery of new innovative applications, including collaboration, video, VDI and everything cloud. All this, however, must be achieved with flat budgets and without introducing additional risk. This is the "New Normal" for IT.
To reduce data center costs and speed service delivery, organizations are adopting converged infrastructure platforms like Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), while readying the network with the capabilities and capacity needed to deliver dynamic services. Doing this effectively not only requires performance visibility to maintain uptime, but also better insights into where new technology infrastructure will be most effective for the business.
On June 6th, together with Enterprise Management Associates, we'll discuss the transformative trends and technologies shaping IT and business today. We'll also show how CA Technologies and Cisco are working together to help our customers accelerate innovation by cost effectively ensuring quality-of-service and an optimum customer experience – especially for new applications hosted in unified datacenter and delivered across a truly borderless network. During this session you'll gain valuable insights into how organizations can:
• Leverage Cisco UCS platforms to better support the delivery of new virtualized cloud services the business is demanding
• Maintain and exceed service levels, manage performance and ensure Cisco UCS compute power is there when the business needs it
• Proactively manage the performance of tier 1 applications, virtualized services and infrastructure to increase ROI and accelerate time-to-value of Cisco investments
• Deliver real-time visibility and historical analysis into bandwidth consumption and application response times to drive business performance improvements
• Provide extensible, value-added services including voice and video quality-of-experience management

Why Your Cloud Provider Security Logo Doesn't Mean a Thing
Dennis Hurst, Application Security, HP Fortify; Ryan English, Global Director, HP Fortify on Demand Team
May 16 2013
49 mins
As more applications have moved to the cloud, the industry has seen a proliferation of application security issues. In 2012, several cloud service providers were breached as a direct result of application security vulnerabilities. Before you choose a cloud service provider, make sure that it answers the series of security questions created by the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). CSA has created a checklist of industry-accepted ways to document what security controls exist in IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS offerings – creating more transparency for enterprises. The speakers will walk attendees through this blueprint, helping them to become more adept at identifying service provider security readiness. They'll also discuss some of the most common application vulnerabilities, including unencrypted passwords, SQL Injection, and those that impact poorly architected mobile apps.

Julie Craig, EMA & Melissa Sargeant, CA Technologies
"Supporting these applications requires skills we don't have."
"Our applications are unstable."
"We had ten people on a 32-hour conference call."
"We can't get less than 30-second response time."
Surprisingly, these comments weren't dug out of a vault from interviews conducted with IT directors 5, 7 or more years ago. These concerns, these revenue impacting struggles were published in an Enterprise Management Associates (EMA™) research study conducted about APM in the IT Enterprise in November 2012.
Why is ensuring optimal application performance still so elusive?
Today's IT organizations are discovering that managing modern, complex applications is an expensive, time-consuming and often frustrating proposition.
Furthermore, it is only when customer expectations aren't met that IT is on the front lines, yet, this EMA report finds that calls from users is still the most common way IT is alerted that applications aren't performing as expected.
Join the author of this study, Julie Craig, along with CA Technologies Jason Meserve as they discuss the research results and dig further into the conclusions in her paper, "The Impact of Application Performance and Availability on your Business – and Your Customers".

Jens Dollenbacher, Principal Consultant, Service Virtualization, CA Technologies
Die steigende Komplexität und permanente Veränderungen bei heutigen Anwendungen verhindern häufig die besten Ansätze der IT Teams Agilität zu erreichen. Service Virtualization beseitigt die Einschränkungen bei der Entwicklung verteilter Anwendungen und deren Testphase, wie z.B. Zugang zu Datenbanken, 3rd Pary und ERP-Systemen, Mainframes, und vieles mehr.
Jens Dollenbacher erklärt unter Verwendung realer Beispiele, wie On-Demand Virtual Service Environment (VSE) teure produktionsähnliche Testumgebungen ersetzen kann. Diese VSEs eliminieren die üblichen Abhängigkeiten zwischen service-orientierten Anwendungen und externen Serviceprovidern, die agile Softwareentwicklung verhindern, indem sie es ermöglichen gleichzeitig an mehreren Releases zu arbeiten und leistungsfähigere Anwendungen schneller und günstiger bereitstellen können.

• Right size virtual and physical infrastructures according to workloads
• Size and plan virtualization projects, platform upgrades or cloud migrations
• Leverage a hardware model library to compare alternative infrastructures including Cisco, VCE, vBlock, Dell, HP, IBM and more.
Greater Business Value Through Capacity Management
Dec 3 2012
45 mins
CA Technologies
IT organizations are increasingly being called upon to cost-effectively deliver reliable support for the entire catalog of business services, or risk outsourcing to a managed service provider. Previously, IT architects would use historical trends to predict capacity requirements and simply over-provision to account for any peaks caused by seasonality, error, or extraneous influences like Mergers & Acquisitions. Over-provisioning, combined with poor lifecycle management of new resources provisioned in the datacenter, has led to capacity utilization and inefficiency issues.
While historical data is great for understanding past issues and current state of the environment, the performance of servers, hosts and clusters is not linear; at some level of saturation, the performance of that infrastructure will quickly start to degrade. The impact is that business services dependent on that infrastructure suffer, and users experience longer response times, unavailable applications and unacceptable performance. Lack of predictability and uncertainty has caused many IT organizations to suffer "VM Stall," meaning they have been unable to advance to a strategic deployment of virtualization and achieve expected levels of consolidation. IT must understand the impact of change on the infrastructure to ensure performance. Without that insight IT is unwilling to take that risk.
To proactively plan for capacity in order to support mission critical business services, IT must assess historical data captured by eHealth and couple it with predictive analytics. This allows you to efficiently manage what the actual capacity utilization of that business service is and what it will be as the workload grows, the infrastructure virtualizes, or other changes are introduced. Given this predictive capability, IT could effectively foresee capacity issues in the future to assess alternatives and provision the right infrastructure when needed.
Resource center to help IT professionals optimize IT performance
The ever-increasing complexity of the technology landscape, coupled with stagnant or decreasing budgets, has many organizations looking for ways to manage complexity, improve cycle times and reduce service delivery costs.
To close the gap between flat budgets and the growing demand for IT operations to support new business services, IT departments are starting to move from a technology-centric to a service-centric model to think and act more holistically about how they relate to the business.
This resource center offers information and real world examples of how organizations can transform IT to simplify and optimize service quality and reduce delivery costs to ultimately drive innovation and growth for the business.
