What does this mean, I wonder?
RODE HIM LIKE A ONE-HUMP CAMEL -- ".(State Auditor George) Adkins made a reputation pursuing state spending in former Gov. Julian Carroll's administration. 'We rode poor old Gov. Carroll like a one-humped camel,' (Michael Wayne) Gayhart said, chuckling. 'I don't mean that in a bad way, but we looked at every dirty little thing.'." Gayhart is a candidate for auditor in this year's election.

COLUMBIA - People who breeze around in golf carts may someday be permitted to do so at night, provided they have working headlights and rear lights on their vehicle.
Rep. Bill Herbkersman, R-Bluffton, introduced H. 3594 in February, which would change state law to allow state-permitted, insured golf cart operators to drive in the dark.
Current South Carolina law says that someone driving a golf cart may take the vehicle up to 4 miles away from their home or from the entrance to a gated community and only on a secondary highway or street where the posted speed limit is 35 mph or less.
The law also gives free rein to residents of islands that have no bridge access to the mainland, such as Daufuskie Island.
Last year Herbkersman pushed to achieve a doubling from 2 miles to 4 miles for golf cart operators to travel. This month Bluffton Republican Weston Newton added his name as a co-sponsor to the new proposal to extend golf cart use past daylight hours.
A related change, introduced in January by an Upstate lawmaker, is also in the works.
Rep. Bill Whitmire, R-Walhalla, introduced H. 3353, which would give a golf cart's less genteel cousin, the all-terrain vehicle, the same room to roam as a golf cart.

After hitting the ratings jackpot with its adaptation of Stephen King's weighty tome Under the Dome, CBS just announced that the summer series will be back for season 2 in 2014, and, as an added incentive for fans to tune in, the network has managed to strike a deal with King that would see the prolific author step in and script the season premiere.
Although only halfway through its first season, Under the Dome has proven to be a ratings winner; averaging around 13.84 million viewers every week with more added once on-demand and DVR figures wind up being tallied. In addition, the series has also become a huge hit for Amazon Prime Instant Video, which provides subscribers access to new episodes four days after they initially air. According to Amazon, the show "has been watched by more customers than any other series on the service."
Naturally, the high ratings – especially for a summer series – and the positive response from the Amazon streaming outlet has CBS committed to stretching the series' storyline for as long as the audience continues to check in on the trapped residents of Chester's Mill. After the pilot episode nabbed incredibly high numbers, executive producer Brian K. Vaughan spoke about how the series would eventually have to move away from a direct adaptation of the novel, in order to accommodate the story requirements of what is now ostensibly and ongoing series.
Aside from wondering how the series' narrative will progress as the episode count climbs, the question now becomes: With the announcement that the series will definitely continue into season 2, will viewers who are fans of the novel continue to stick around, knowing that the end may be years in the making and may not resemble the novel's conclusion at all?
Despite the daunting task of finding enough story to fill another season (or seasons) of Under the Dome within the claustrophobic confines of Chester's Mill, and running the risk of alienating fans of the novel by transitioning to a more loose interpretation of the text, CBS remains confident that they have a winner on their hands and are willing to bet that nabbing King to script the season 2 premiere will translate to an endorsement of the series by its creator.
According to CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler:

Here's the AAA's explanation of why they oppose SB910, the bill which would require a 3-foot passing gap when motor vehicles pass cyclists.
Thank you for your inquiry relative to AAA's position on SB 910. Our official position is not a straight oppose, it is an 'oppose unless amended'. We don't take issue with the 3 foot distance rule when it can be safely accomplished. The problem is how to address situations when a 3 foot distance cannot be maintained or met.
Current language in the bill would require the vehicle to slow to 15 mph of the speed of the bicycle to pass. But this is problematic for several reasons, as pointed out in the bill analysis, the link for which you provided. Law enforcement has issues with this approach as well because it can cause a drastic decrease in speed differentials between the vehicle passing the bicycle and other vehicles on the road depending on the posted speed limit. Not only can this cause rear-end collisions, and create a more dangerous situation for the cyclists. It is the differences in speed that is the number one cause of car crashes. Another suggested approach is to require the car to enter into the opposite lane of traffic (cross a double line) in order to give the cyclists the 3 foot distance. This is something being explored as well as a number of other ideas.
While we can all agree on the concept and goal SB 910, crafting workable legislation usually requires addressing a number of details and issues that arise throughout the process as the concept is flushed out and enforceability is addressed. The author of the bill, Senator Lowenthal, is committed to working with all interested parties, including law enforcement, AAA and the bicycle coalition sponsors of the bill to find the most appropriate and safest way to address situations when the general rule to allow a 3 foot distance cannot be met due to road design. We have to determine what the law should be in those circumstances and there is some disagreement on that level. Thank you again for allowing us to explain our position on the bill.
Paula LaBrie
Legislative Counsel
AAA Northern California, Nevada & Utah
Office (916) 443-2577
I generally agree with the letter of Paula's points. However, the mention of "enforceability" is troublesome. As I've already pointed out here, no law is going to be perfectly enforceable, so to hold this bill to a standard of unambiguous enforceability is overly restrictive.
Additionally, the comment that the sponsors of the bill need to "find the most appropriate and safest way to address situations when the general rule to allow a 3 foot distance cannot be met due to road design" is just plain scary. I have the solution to this problem: if the roadway does not allow a pass with a three foot margin then the roadway does not allow a safe pass and the driver must wait until it is safe to pass. The bill is premised on the assertion passing with less than a 3-foot margin is inherently unsafe, at least when the vehicle is going at least a certain speed (for example 15 mph). Therefore making exceptions to a 3-foot passing margin based on the context of road design is equivalent to making exception to a safe passing requirement, and there is no exception made to the safe passing requirement. This bill changes nothing unless you think passing with less than a 3-foot margin can be done safely.
So I wish the question would be put to anyone taking positions against the bill: "do you think passing with less than a 3 foot buffer can be safe?" Unless the answer is yes, spoken with a straight face, there is no longer any margin for debate.

Ontario Provincial Police are warning motorists to stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary due to a savage ice storm that slammed southern Ontario with ice pellets and freezing rain on Sunday, knocking off power to over 40,000 people.
Provincial police said there were roughly 750 crashes on highways surrounding Toronto on Saturday, and there had been nearly 700 more by early Sunday afternoon.
"We would prefer the highways to be empty and are encouraging all non-essential travel to be postponed," said Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Sgt. Kerry Schmidt in an update Sunday morning.
"If you don't need to drive, stay off the road."
READ MORE: 'Potentially historic' ice storm arrives in southern Ontario; closures, crashes reported
Schmidt said OPP have responded to well over 1200 overall collisions since the storm began on Saturday. The QEW westbound was closed at Ford Drive due to a jackknifed tractor trailer earlier in the day Sunday. There was also a report of another jackknifed tractor trailer in the London area around the same time. Fortunately, no crashes have resulted in any major injuries.
Rain, freezing rain and ice pellets continued to fall overnight and into Sunday across southern and central Ontario as a massive, slow-moving storm system moves across the region.
WATCH: Mike Arsenault is tracking a major ice storm that has ravaged southern Ontario throughout the weekend, saying that some southern parts are transitioning from freezing rain to rain over night.
The system is affecting an area from Windsor, Ont. to Quebec, and from North Bay, Ont. to Lake Ontario.
Environment Canada has issued rain and freezing rain warnings across the GTA.
Hydro One said that more than 42,000 customers were without power as of early Sunday evening, mainly in southwestern Ontario. They said extra crews were working to address the outages, saying that fallen trees and broken poles were causing most of the issues.
Toronto Hydro spokesperson Tori Gass told Global News that they have not received any weather related outages in the city as of yet. Gass said that almost three times the amount of crews are out compared to a normal weekend. They have also staffed additional people in the control and call centre as well.
WATCH: A camera caught a dog sprinting out of the way as a large branch broke off a tree, narrowly missing the dog as an ice storm punished southern Ontario.
Toronto's downtown Billy Bishop airport cancelled all departing flights and received only one arrival all day on Sunday, while more than 600 flights were cancelled at the larger Pearson International Airport. Dozens of flights were also cancelled or delayed at Ottawa International Airport.
Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) spokesperson Hayley Waldman told 640 Toronto that subway service, streetcars and buses are moving the "best they can due to the inclement weather." She said additional streetcars have been added to routes along the downtown core to "avoid any icy buildup on the overheads."
Waldman said that all streetcars on route 512 on St. Clair have been replaced by buses. Those streetcars are being used as additional cars on other routes.
"We actually transitioned not specifically because it was especially treacherous, but just because it is a route that's easy for crews to get to in the event of an issue," she said. "We use those additional streetcars from that route on some of our more south routes because the additional volume of streetcars helps us prevent ice buildup on the overhead streetcar wires.
WATCH: An unseasonal ice storm has caused unsafe road conditions in the GTA. As Erica Vella reports, Toronto Mayor John Tory is asking people to stay home, unless they absolutely have to.
Additionally, sliders have been added to "roughly" every fifth car, Waldman said, which help with the buildup of ice as well. The TTC also has extra crews out on the roads and extra customer service representatives at the "more popular hubs" around the city.
"Any problems that arise, we are ready to tackle them. Safety is our number one priority, we're just going to keep moving the best we can and make sure we get all of our customers to their final destinations," she said.
Global News meteorologist Anthony Farnell said the storm will continue on throughout the day, with the ice pellets changing back to freezing rain by late morning or early afternoon.
"Ice buildup on trees and power lines will be most significant cross the Niagara Escarpment region and through the west of the GTA."
WATCH: Fire fighters worked to free a tractor trailer truck that went off the road on Highway 6 in Hamilton on Sunday.
Environment Canada issued a wind warning for the city of Toronto late Sunday afternoon, saying wind gusts up to 100 kilometres an hour could occur along the Lakeshore.
High winds could "cause damage to buildings, such as to roof shingles and windows. High winds may toss loose objects or cause tree branches to break," the statement read.
Farnell said thunderstorms are also likely in the forecast later Sunday night once the ice pellets and freezing rain turn into "heavy rain."
WATCH: Toronto Mayor John Tory tells residents to stay home and if they have to go out to use public transit.
Global News meteorologist Ross Hull said Environment Canada has issued rainfall warnings for "the GTA stretching east and toward the southwest that call for 25-plus millimetres of rain," but for those areas that see thunderstorms, they could possibly see 45 to 50 millimetres.
Transportation Services General Manager Barbara Gray told reporters on Sunday that the city has deployed 80 salters onto its streets, 30 of which are plow-enabled.
"We've just got done plowing the DVP, making sure the catch basins stay clear so that when we have flooding and additional rain that happens tonight and into tomorrow, that those catch basins do their job," Gray said, adding the city has both contracted and in-house staff working on a rotation on a 24-hour basis.

WATCH: Plowing roads could cause flooding if Toronto gets heavy rains: Tory
"If you plow all that slush and ice pellets onto the side of the road, it dramatically increases the chances we would have a real flooding problem if we have heavy rains later on," Mayor John Tory said at the news conference.
"No one would thank us if we plowed every millimetre of snow off the streets and ended up causing a catastrophic flooding problem tomorrow morning," he said.
On top of expressways and roadways, Gray said plows, salters and sidewalk crews are working on clearing bus stops, as well as high-pedestrian traffic areas and bikes lanes.
Tory also echoed Schmidt's earlier words and encouraged residents to stay home and off the roads.
"If people could stay off the roads today, that would be best," he said. "It would just be helpful if people wouldn't be on the roads today."
Meanwhile, a main concern is Monday when "the big melt" will be underway, Farnell said. With temperatures getting warmer, the meteorologist said he is concerned about river flooding, as well as street flooding with sewers and drains clogged with ice and snow.
The Toronto and Regional Conservation Authority is also warning that some creeks and rivers could flood by late Sunday due to the heavy rain.
Farnell warns motorist to give themselves plenty of time to get to work Monday morning.

Driver is NOT a GTA Clone
Sorry to tell you guys, but Driver was the first 3D Action Driving game (Driver) and the first 3D Action On-Foot Driving game (Driver 2). People who say Driver is a GTA Clone are just jealous that Driver was the first one to get you out of the car. And Driv3r wasn't a GTA Clone either, sure they made fun of Tommy Vercetti, but damn, of course they did! They mocked a PS1 on-foot action game! What else would you expect? /rant
-CarLuver69 21:15, August 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Everyone already knew that. But Driv3r began focusing more on the (terrible) out of car action after GTA III hit the big time. Parallel Lines reinforced that, moreso than 3.
Driver actually is a GTA Clone. Grand Theft Auto 1 (and its series of the same name) was created in 1997, Driver was made in 1999, which was the same year that Grand Theft Auto 2 was created. Also, Driv3r only began focusing more on the (terrible) out of car action after GTA III hit the big time (ie. got extremely popular). ALso, GTA III could have (and would have) switched to a 3D game without the interference of Driver. But since technology advances, GTA III could have been released as a 3D game without the influence of the Driver series. Also, judging by the similar gameplay, similar genre and similar features, it is obvious that Driver is a GTA Clone.--MrLanceVanceDance 04:16, 7 May 2011 (BST)
Is This Page Really Necessary?
The term 'GTA Clone' is the stupidest thing i have ever herd, what if we had only one racing game, one first person shooter, etc. If the term has to be used, how come none of these are?
- Uncharted: Tomb Raider Clone.
- Medal of Honor/Battlefield: Call of Duty Clones.
- Forza: Gran Turismo Clone.
- Rockband: Guitar Hero Clone.
- Project Gotham Racing: Need for Speed Clone.
- Medal of Honor and Battlefield both predate Call of Duty, MoH by four years (first release 1999) and the BF by one year (first release 2002), while the first CoD was released in 2003. All three of these franchises could also be considered Doom clones, which in turn could be considered a Castle Wolfenstein clone. Tomb Raider could be considered a Prince of Persia clone, while Prince of Persia could be considered a Pitfall clone. Grand Tourismo, Forza, Project Gotham, and Need For Speed could all be considered Ridge Racer clones. Guitar Hero and Rock Band are, in a round-about way, clones of Dance Dance Revolution. The list is virtually endless.
- GTA, on the other hand, is the first game series I know of to coin the sandbox-style gameplay we know of today that many "GTA clones" conform to. Ghost Leader (talk|edits) 07:38, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
I think we need a different type of page. I think we need a comparison between the various GTA-style games, stating the differences, similarities, features etc. Anyone think that's better than this page? gboyers talk 17:43, 9 December 2011 (UTC) As you can see the list goes on. Some of these games are better, including the so called 'GTA Clones'.
- Take a look at Wikipedia's page. That article was rated good so there are a lot of information that can be placed under this name.--spaceeinstein 10:01, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
Well i'm proven wrong, but you have to admit, it is ridiculous Baseballhater (talk) 05:08, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
You gotta think, if a person is on a website called "Grand Theft Wiki", I'm pretty sure they know the difference between an actual GTA game and a "Clone" like Saints Row. So the "Comparison" idea is probably the better option. Alejandro (talk) 21:57, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
- I personally think it should be changed to reflect the in-game refences. The True Crime Street Cleaners is obviously Rockstar having a go at GTA clones. GamerAddict7796 (talk) 10:01, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

HARTSVILLE, S.C. – Amber Lau led the Cobras to a 73-63 victory over Conference Carolinas foe King University on Saturday (Jan. 26) with 24-points. With the win the Cobras improve to 11-7 on the year, and 7-5 in league play.
Defense was the story in the first half, as the Cobras held the Tornado to just 13-points for the first 14-minutes of the game. King (9-7, 5-7) was able to net eight more points in the final six minutes of the first half, but it was Coker who took a 32-21 advantage into the break.
The offensive surge continued into the second half for the Cobras, as Coker kept a secure 10-point lead for most of the final 20-minutes.
Eleven different players scored for Coker as the team collected their third highest scoring game of the season. Along with Lau, her twin sister Autumn scored 10-points and snatched down nine rebounds. Kelley Godbout also had nine rebounds, tying Autumn for the team high.
Coker will hit the road to face Belmont Abbey on Thursday (Jan. 31), in a Conference Carolinas match. The game is set for a 5:30 p.m. start time.
McDonalds Player of the Game: Amber Lau.

I am having an online discussion with a born-again "follower of Christ" lady who says that the fact that I have so many Christians in my life challenging my atheism means that the Lord is courting me. My response has been that I think it is because I am an outspoken atheist and the issue is very important to me, so I tend to give Christians around me reason to talk to me about it.
What should I say to her about why this issue is so important to me without her twisting it around so that it seems I am just confused and seeking Jesus but don't know it?
BTW, I think she thinks she is helping me to find Jesus, but she's not. I am basically studying her. the problem is that I can see how people can be taken in by her message.
Views: 1299
True That^^^
I wonder if I said, "OK, I'm convinced." if that would satisfy her? I already know the answer though. She'd try to advise me on how to build my faith (ie allow myself to be brainwashed.)
I won't say that though. : )
Oh, I could fake it very easily, cause I know exactly what to say, and how to say it, since I was in it for my pre-teen years - and heavily. I even worked a "Prayer Line" when I was in seventh grade, right before I realized it was all BS, and I was lying to myself to fit in.
And I bet, if you thought about it, you could too - not that you'd want to. Be who you are, proudly, and unabashedly.
BTW, I responded to this (it's on page 5) before I read the responses. I like to do that when I first respond, because that way my response isn't influenced.
I did wonder for a long time, though - if there was a heaven, would all the people I (supposedly) "saved" on the phone get in, if I weren't a xian? I knew there was no such place, but it was a fun exercise to try to figure out. ;)
Yes I could, but not for long. I am glad I don't have to.
Tell her that you are concerned about religion for the same reason that a doctor is concerned about cancer.
Nice analogy.
Good ideas. These "followers of Christ" are a special breed of believers. They stay away from the word Christian because of the bad rap Christianity has. Isn't that ironic?
What this lady wants to do is engage me in a debate and convert me. I know it is an exercise in futility to debate her point by point because she is so far over the top. I'll give her this though, she's smart and she knows her stuff. I can see how she could convince someone who isn't knowledgeable or is on the fence. I'm not on the fence though, and she's smart but not quite smart enough to get me to buy what's she's peddling.
Did you know that many of the followers of him believed the second coming would arrive within their lifetime and nearly 2,000 years later, people are still waiting? Hello! I don't think he's coming!
If you choose some point(s) like this to hit her up on, be sure to be armed with all relevant facts. Memorize the context, the words, and what book/chapter/verse they are found in. Know what excuses apologists have made and why they are wrong, so you can discard her replies with ease, such that she realizes she can't defend the biblical passage. Also, know what ancient christian members believed in regards to that topic, what controversies existed, what if anything did the bishops or apologists of the time have to say, etc... and be able to name some names and/or dates.
For that particular false prophecy, this video series if very useful:
Yes! That ought to bring her brain to a screeching halt.
Her brain isn't going that fast in the first place, the halt wouldn't be screeching it would be more of a slow coast until it tips over
Now I've got that song in my head!
Nah, the die-hards as so brainwashed that nothing challenges their Suspension of Disbelief. She will simply dismiss your counters as "the devil trying to lead her away from the lord!"
But it doesn't hurt to try ;)

Shale is a game changer for America. Shale is already creating a significant amount of economic growth and improving our energy security, and there is potential for much more. Through education and action, the Energy Institute is giving voice to U.S. businesses and industries that believe in promoting production of natural gas and oil from shale formations to boost our economy, create jobs and secure America's energy future.
America's New Energy Future:
The Unconventional Oil and Gas Revolution and the US Economy
To help quantify the impact of shale, the Energy Institute teamed up with the respected global research firm IHS and other organizations to conduct a comprehensive three-part study. America's New Energy Future: The Unconventional Oil and Gas Revolution shows that shale will create millions of jobs and trillions in investments over the coming decades. Phase I of the study, released in October 2012, quantifies the national impacts of shale, while Phase II, released in December 2012, details the state by state job and revenue impacts. In September 2013, we released Phase III, which goes even further by looking at the impact on manufacturing and other "downstream" activities.

I too am amazed at the ability of coursera to take nearly $80m of venture capital and make $4m income (*not* profit) after 4 years. If you give me $80m I could beat that level of return.
- Donald Clark said...
I'm an investor and at this rate of compound growth, it looks good. PS JISC has spent a great deal more than $80m and never got off the mark ;)
- David K said...
Same Jisc that saves the sector £256m a year? Or were you talking about an ability to cost learners more money by charging for bits of paper... because there you have me.
- Donald Clark said...
Oh yeah? Same JISC that got reorganised, had budgets cut and was seen to be bloated and wasteful. I read the Wison Review.
- Ram said...
Nothing new here. Stanford already offers such a signature track, with video courses and a quiz for the last, what, 5 years? They make millions in revenue, and Coursera decided to canibalize that. The difference here is what happens to the money. At Stanford it all goes back to need based fellowships. At coursera, it goes to the pocket of investors.
- Donald Clark said...
Big difference I think. Coursera is hitting millions of learners with a huge range of courses. They offer courses from a guge range of institutions, as do other non-US providers, such as Futurelearn. I'm not so sure that my money being spent on rich US students is such a great idea anyway. In any case, I'm an investor and businessman and see no problem with the innovation from the private sector playing a part here. MOOCs would not have happened without such capital.

A man who arranged to sell his iPhone 5 via Craigslist was left phoneless and cashless after the would-be buyer grabbed the phone and ran, police said.
On Tuesday at 7 p.m., the man was meeting the buyer in the parking lot of the 99 Cents Only store on West Victory Boulevard, said Burbank Police Sgt. Darin Ryburn.
When the suspect approached the man, he asked to see the phone. As the victim took out the iPhone, the suspect grabbed it and fled northbound on Brighton Street.
The suspect was described as black, roughly 19 years old with brown hair and brown eyes. He was wearing jeans and a black flannel jacket, Ryburn said.
"That's why people should be real careful when selling items, whether it be [through] an ad in the paper or Craigslist," Ryburn said. "Have people with you to ensure your safety."

DIY: How to Make Greek Yogurt at Home
Get the Recipe
As a cruise down the dairy aisle will quickly attest, Americans are infatuated with Greek yogurt. (Whether or not what's on offer is actually Greek yogurt, Greek-style yogurt, or "just garbage that tastes nothing like what I ate that one summer in Santorini" is a debate we shall leave aside for this post.) If you're on this particularly trendy dairy bandwagon, those little lunch-packable six-ounce cups priced around $1.49 a pop can claim a serious chunk of your grocery budget and represent a distressing volume of packaging in your trash can.
Producing yogurt at home may not be quite as simple as making ice cubes, but it's not much more complicated than measuring liquid into containers and letting it reach or hold certain temperatures. Ultimately, if you can stir and read a thermometer, you have all the skill needed to culture your own.
That being said, there are myriad ways to get from milk to yogurt and your results will vary depending on a number factors, so a certain period of trial may be needed until you land on the taste you like and the process you find most efficient.
Things to Consider
What type of milk will you use? You can use whole, reduced fat, or even skim milk (you can also culture non-dairy milks such as almond or soy), though the taste and thickness of the resulting yogurts will differ. Some people mix in a portion of dry milk before culturing to further thicken their yogurt, but I have never found this to improve the texture; if anything, it seems to add an unpleasant grittiness no matter how well I think I have dissolved it.
What type of starter will you use? You can purchase freeze-dried yogurt starters or use a few tablespoons of a plain store-bought yogurt. If you decide on the latter, select one with a taste you like and check the label to make sure it contains live and active cultures before purchasing. I've had good experiences with both methods.
How long will you let it incubate and how will you keep it warm enough (but not too warm!) during this time? You need to keep the milk and starter mixture at a temperature of around 110°F for about six hours (it needs to get to a custard consistency; additional time will increase the tartness of the yogurt). Methods for doing this range from a simple thermos to a special appliance specific to yogurt making. Many cooks seem to like wrapping their pot with a towel (sometimes placed in a warmed oven, sometimes with the oven light left on), but that is too high-variable for me. For those with an oven that can be set to very low temperatures, you can get stricter consistency but then you have to accept the energy loss. After trying several of these options, I've settled on the "hot water in a cooler" method I first read about here. I have found it to be both simple and reliable.
How much whey will you strain out? I let my yogurt strain for two hours, which resulted in six cups of thick yogurt comparable to commercial brands and two cups of whey.
The Verdict
There are commercial Greek yogurt brands for sale on supermarket shelves laced with thickeners and other add-ins, but there are also options available which contain only milk and live cultures, so making your own to avoid such things is not strictly necessary. Taste, depending on what you're after, may be a consideration for you, but really it seems that the cost savings is the biggest issue in the DIY vs. buy final analysis.
Having grab-and-go portions of yogurt is important in our household, so once the yogurt was strained, I packaged it into 1/2-pint mason jars (though I stopped short of cutting little rounds of parchment to place on top, à la Fage). Even if homemade yogurt is made with an admittedly pricey local dairy's milk (1/2 gallon for $4 at the Baltimore farmers market, for example) it's still cheaper to make it: If you include the purchase of a starter cup of the most expensive Greek yogurt ($1.49), that amount produces six cups of strained Greek yogurt for $5.49 vs $8.94 for six slightly smaller individual store-bought six-ounce cups of Fage.
The savings increase dramatically from here, even if you purchase commercial yogurt in the largest portion possible. A gallon of organic whole milk at the grocery retails locally for $5.69, non-organic for $2.99. Based on my calculations, that means the per-ounce price breaks down like this.
- Fage: $0.17/ounce
- House brand Greek yogurt (no additives): $0.13/ounce
- Farmers market milk: $0.08/ounce
- House brand milk, organic: $0.06/ounce
- House brand milk, non-organic: $0.03/ounce
I did not include the cost of the starter here, since once you get going, you will only need to replace the starter if yours begins to weaken. You'll need to factor in the cost of your own labor and energy usage over and above these figures when evaluating your options.

Lightly raced Maleeh ran like a seasoned professional in his second start, saving ground on the turn and angling off the rail to launch his stretch run en route to a 2 ¾-length win in Saturday's $100,000 Fred "Cappy" Capossela, a six-furlong sprint for 3-year-olds at Aqueduct Racetrack.
Breaking from the rail, Maleeh raced behind a wall of opponents in fifth through an opening quarter-mile in 22.92 seconds as Whiskey Romeo and odds-on Clawback battled for early supremacy. Eddie Castro put Maleeh to a drive at the quarter pole, then took him outside Whiskey Romeo and Clawback with three-sixteenths to travel.
With clear running room, Maleeh shot past the leaders and ran away to a decisive score. Tenango, a 57-1 long shot, overcame a tardy start to nab second by a head from Clawback.
"I stuck behind the speed – third, fourth, close to the pace," said Castro. "My horse drifted a little inside, I had to check. When he ran the first time, he did the same thing. In the stretch, I hit him left-handed and he came with a nice kick. He's impressive, a really nice horse."
Off as the 5-1 fourth choice, Maleeh paid $13.40 for a $2 win wager. He completed the distance in 1:10.43.
"I was a little worried about the rail [post], watching the races all day today," said Art Magnuson, assistant to winning trainer Kiaran McLaughlin. "He stepped it up. It was a tough race, and you don't know until you try. We were in a very good spot. I was only worried about how much horse [Eddie Castro] had under him, but I liked where we were."
Maleeh employed a similar running style in his only other start, stalking the pace and running down the pacesetter late to take a maiden special weight by a half-length on January 6 at Aqueduct.
Owned by Shadwell Stable, Maleeh is by Indian Charlie and out of top sprinter Gold Mover. The bay colt was bred in Virginia by Edward P. Evans.

text: December 2, 2008 - Sen. Martinez Faced Tough Re-Election Fight, November 18 Quinnipiac University Poll Showed Word format Florida U.S. Sen. Mel Martinez had a lukewarm 42 - 33 percent approval rating in a Quinnipiac University poll released November 18. Only 36 percent of voters said he deserves another term, while 38 percent said no and 26 percent said they are not sure. If the election were today, 36 percent said they would vote for Martinez while 40 percent would support his unnamed Democratic opponent and 24 percent were undecided, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll found. "Sen. Martinez would have faced a difficult re-election fight. When fewer than 50 percent of voters say an incumbent deserves re-election, that generally assures a competitive race," said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. "Martinez' re-election numbers were in the 30s and although there are almost two years before the 2010 voting, he would have started off with a serious uphill fight." From November 11 - 16, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,361 Florida voters with a margin of error of +/- 2.7 percentage points. The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public opinion surveys in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio and the nation as a public service and for research.

The starting point for developing a web service to use WSIT is a Java class file annotated with the javax.jws.WebService annotation. The WebService annotation defines the class as a web service endpoint. The following Java code shows a web service. The IDE will create most of this Java code for you.
package org.me.calculator; import javax.jws.WebService; import javax.jws.WebMethod; import javax.jws.WebParam; @WebService() public class Calculator { @WebMethod(action="sample_operation") public String operation(@WebParam(name="param_name") String param) { // implement the web service operation here return param; } @WebMethod(action="add") public int add(@WebParam(name = "i") int i, @WebParam(name = "j") int j) { int k = i + j; return k; } }
Notice that this web service performs a very simple operation. It takes two integers, adds them, and returns the result.
Perform the following steps to use the IDE to create this web service.
Click the Runtime tab in the left pane and verify that GlassFish is listed in the left pane. If it is not listed, register it by following the steps in Registering GlassFish with the IDE.
Choose File->New Project, select Web Application from the Web category, and click Next.
Assign the project a name that is representative of services that will be provided by the web service (for example, CalculatorApplication), set the Project Location to the location of the Sun application server, and click Finish.
When you create the web service project, be sure to define a Project Location that does not include spaces in the directory name. Spaces in the directory might cause the web service and web service clients to fail to build and deploy properly. To avoid this problem, Sun recommends that you create a directory, for example C:\work, and put your project there.
Right-click the CalculatorApplication node and choose New->Web Service.
Type the web service name (CalculatorWS) and the package name (org.me.calculator) in the Web Service Name and the Package fields respectively.
Select Create an Empty Web Service and click Finish.
The IDE then creates a skeleton CalculatorWS.java file for the web service that includes an empty WebService class with annotation @Webservice.
Right-click within the body of the class and choose Web Service->Add Operation.
In the upper part of the Add Operation dialog box, type add in Name and choose int from the Return Type drop-down list.
In the lower part of the Add Operation dialog box, click Add and create a parameter of type int named i. Click OK. Click Add again and create a parameter of type int called j. Click OK and close the Enter Method Parameter dialog box.
Click OK at the bottom of the Add Operation dialog box.
Notice that the add method has been added to the Source Editor:
@WebMethod public int add(@WebParam(name = "i") int i, @WebParam(name = "j") int j) { // TODO implement operation return 0; }
Change the add method to the following (changes are in bold):
@WebMethod(action="add") public int add(@WebParam(name = "i") int i, @WebParam(name = "j") int j) { int k = i + j; return k; }
To ensure interoperability with Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) clients, you must specify the action element of @WebMethod in your endpoint implementation classes. WCF clients will incorrectly generate an empty string for the Action header if you do not specify the action element.
Save the CalculatorWS.java file.

The Buffalo Bills are expected to be without their best defensive back when mandatory minicamp starts Tuesday. Franchise player Jairus Byrd won't show unless he has a contract, a source informed of the negotiations told NFL.com's Ian Rapoport.
This is not a holdout. By rule, Byrd cannot practice until he signs the franchise tender or renegotiates a long-term contract. There's "nothing happening on that front at this time," Rapoport's source explained.
Byrd and offensive tackle Ryan Clady of the Denver Broncos are the only two players yet to sign from among the eight who were hit with the franchise tag this offseason. The NFL contract website Spotrac.com places Byrd's value at $45 million over five years.
Bills fans have another month before Byrd's contract stalemate should become a major concern. The deadline for franchise players to sign extensions is July 15. If the sides don't have a contract in place by then, Byrd might skip training camp as his leverage slips away.
UPDATE: Clady told KDSP-FM on Monday that he will not be at Broncos minicamp, but he "more than likely" will show up for training camp.

Palate: Stewed pears, oak, liquorice, a bit dry and dusty with some pepper and nutmeg spice.
Finish: Medium length, straw, pears, liquorice. Drying.
General comment: This is a solid, easy to drink grain whisky. The nose is the highlight.
That looks like an older bottle. The current ones have an age statement of 12 years - not sure if that makes any difference?
Are you talking about this type of bottle?
The picture in this recent post looks like it is the smaller 180ml bottle. I was referring to the same sized 180ml bottle, but with a newer label and has a 12 year age statement. I will take a picture of it later and upload it for you.
Sorry for the crappy cell phone picture. I believe it is the newer bottle for the former key malt series. Woody and Mellow
Yes, I think this whisky is actually a bottling which Nonjatta mentions here:
If it Ok, I will post the link to that comments thread too.
Here is higher resolution picture of a couple of the key malt bottles, including the Coffey Grain.
That fantastic! realy! these website is way better then everything I ever saw.

It had names with dates and said 'In Paradise'. The duration was anywhere between 3 months to 6 years, so I was sure that it was like a memory mark or visitors dairy, like the ones typically seen in popular spots. Instead of assuming or just wondering, I chatted up with a cleaner (ignoring the killer stare from my crazy half!), he confirmed that the resort does this as a token of appreciation for their long-stay guests!

Don Rickles and Johnny Carson
We remember watching the Tonight Show, (Years Ago) when Johnny Carson and Don Rickles were having another one of their Fantastic Shows Together. Johnny and Don were chatting about a movie that Don Rickles had made named "Wasting Away Again In Kutcharitaville". It was a Super Terrific Show to say the least, both of them started talking about Kutchie Pelaez and his World Famous Restaurant called Kutchie's Key West Kutcharitaville Cafe. About his Famous Goody Goody Cheese Burgers in Paradise and how he had been serving them since the early 1970's. That's when Johnny Carson started telling Don about the famous key lime pies that Kutchie bakes. Don then preceded to tell Johnny that he too was "Addicted To Kutchie's Famous Key Lime Pies". That's when Ed McMahon hit Rickles from behind with a key lime pie, all over his bald head. Johnny, must have been planing it from the beginning, he sure set Rickles-up to take the hit. Oh my gosh, that show was just hilarious, it had all of us rolling in the floor for hours. They just don't make TV like that anymore. Those three were always great together. Don, Johnny and Ed. Any-Who, could anyone here please tell me just when that "Kutcharitaville Movie" came-out? Was it in the 70's or was it in the 80's? We just can't seem to find any information about it. It's like it just Disappeared, like Johnny and Ed did. Thank God, we still have Don Rickles. We remember the days back when we spent many of our days "Wasting Away Again In Kutcharitaville".

Whalers stun No. 3 Middletown on game-ending FG
New London — And when it was over, Garrett Burdick, the kid kicker, cried.
Duane Maranda, the coach who believes, cried.
Assistant coach Tommie Major, in that volcanic Tommie Major voice, kept yelling, "how bout them Whalers!" to anyone who'd listen.
How bout 'em, indeed.
New London 23, third-ranked Middletown 21. One of the enduring games, even in the estimable lore and legend of Cannamela Field.
And it ended on the last play Friday night when Burdick, New London High School's freshman kicker, made a 22-yard field goal as time expired, touching off delirium in the stands and on the sidelines.
The Whalers (6-2) didn't merely upset the state's No. 3 team, they overcame deficits of 14-0 and 21-7 in the process.
"To come where we've come from," Maranda said, alluding to his team's 1-2 start and fighting back tears after the game, "I think has made us stronger."
The game was a microcosm of the season. Not so great at the beginning. Pretty darn terrific right now.
The game-winning drive began on defense, a stout defense it turned out, that held Middletown's offense to seven points in the final three periods.
The Blue Dragons (8-1) had a third and two near midfield with four minutes remaining. Middletown quarterback Dario Highsmith, who already had eclipsed 100 rushing yards and scored three touchdowns, barely made the line of scrimmage, inhaled by New London defensive end Hunter Roman.
Following a Middletown punt, New London quarterback Danny Maranda hit Jelani Lucas with completions of 29 and 33 yards. The 33-yarder came after Middletown's Jordan Baker and Taqi Bilal collided, leaving Lucas the smallest window.
"Honestly," Lucas said, "I have no idea how I caught that."
The Whalers moved inside the 10 and ran the clock to 2.2 seconds remaining.
And here came Burdick, not long after his extra point bid to tie the game had been blocked. Freshman kicker. Freshman holder, too, Melquann Gomez.
"Everyone was saying 'erase it and move on to the next one, the next one is the one,'" Burdick said. "I guess they knew it."
Burdick's kick came from the left hash with Middletown defenders looming from both ends.
"I was very nervous. I really was just so scared," Burdick said. "Only being a freshman, I didn't really know what I was doing out there. I'm proud of myself that I made it."
Duane Maranda felt the passions of a season — and parts of his life — share the path of the ball through the uprights.
"I saw Dick Beams, I wish he was here for this," Maranda said of his late mentor and former assistant coach. "The adversity. What the outsiders say. But most of all, it was seeing Jose Garcia, Niko Ramos, Orrin Parke, Dante Alston, Ahshon Harkness, all the seniors that have had a tough road and haven't been able to experience wins like this on this field."
Danny Maranda hit Garcia with a 17-yard touchdown pass to cut into Middletown's early 14-0 lead and Ramos ran 61 yards for a score in the third period, taking a direct snap.
"I don't think I'll ever forget this night," Duane Maranda said, hugging various family members on the field after the game. "I'm so proud of our kids."

Check for dull blades on your mower. Dull blades rip and tear the grass instead of cutting it. If your grass tips are turning yellow and brown in the days after a cutting, you were probably cutting with dull blades. This further stresses heat and drought punished grass, and it makes for a not-so-pretty lawn.

Conserving Lands and Prosperity:
Seeking a Proper Balance Between Conservation and Development in the Rocky Mountain West
The Rocky Mountain West, with its vast tracts of public lands, has long been valued for the natural resources that provide fuel, building materials and other commodities and generate jobs and revenue for communities, states and schools. Public lands have also been prized for hunting and fishing opportunities and are increasingly seen as a magnet for tourists, retirees, businesses and professionals in search of a high quality of life.
"Conserving Lands and Prosperity: Seeking a Proper Balance Between Conservation and Development in the Rocky Mountain West" is a new report prepared for Sportsmen for Responsible Energy Development by Southwick Associates that explores the economic benefits of public lands adjacent to rural communities.
A separate document highlights Cody in northwest Wyoming, an area surrounded by public lands that owes about 10 percent of its jobs to direct spending on fishing, hunting and wildlife viewing.
The reports address the need for responsible development to conserve the Rocky Mountain West's renewable riches – watersheds, viable wildlife and fish populations, clean air – and ensure a secure economic future for the region.Next: Seeking a Proper Balance on our Public Lands

A Surreal Night with Arianna Huffington
The Huffington Post's tech reporter attended a wild Los Angeles party with Arianna and woke up without all his belongings; MySpace made a reporter feel dirty and Choire Sicha got not-quite-solicited advice on his vagina. The Twitterati were bewildered.
Huffington Post tech editor Jose Antonio Vargas was recently hired from the Washington Post and is still getting used to his new, glamorous LA lifestyle. He capped a wild night by apparently losing his BlackBerry to a Twittering thief.
Erica Smith os the St. Louis Post-Dispatch will compromise certain standards in pursuit of a good story.
Actor Rainn Wilson tweets his viral mash-up ideas in real time.
The Wall Street Journal's Alan Murray reported on an altogether different sort of analyst estimate.

To the editor:
During our most recent flooding events I was contacted by many people in Levy County who were asking for help with recovery. After meeting with numerous individuals and homeowner groups I was able to bring local organizations together to help some of our residents. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Central Florida Community Action Agency, Inglis /Yankeetown Lion's Club, Master's Hand Food Pantry and Daystar for their contributions. All were able, in their own ways, to improve the lives of those in need and help them through difficult times.
Also, I would like to thank our county personnel, particularly Bruce Greenlee, Director of the Levy County Road Dept. and his staff, and Mark Johnson, Director of Emergency Management, for their help. I heard nothing but appreciation from our residents with regard to the response time and professional demeanor of our county employees.
One comment I heard over and over from residents was "please don't forget us when the flooding is gone". I promised I would not and that I would investigate any options available to permanently alleviate flooding in the future.
Although not a new program, the Florida Division of Emergency Management is offering new options for flood mitigation assistance for Florida residents and they may be helpful to some property owners. Assistance comes in the form of loans and grants, with some grants being 100% and others requiring a property owner contribution. Programs offer many things, including but not limited to, residence elevation out of the flood waters and property purchase. It can be a complicated program; however, a representative from the agency is available to help Levy County residents navigate the process. To see if you qualify or if a program would offer the assistance you need please contact Mr. Kirkland Spraggins at 850-413-9951 or email at email@example.com . Mr. Spraggins is our area representative. He is extremely knowledgeable about the state programs and understands our particular flooding issues.
As always, if I can be of further assistance, I am available by email at email@example.com or phone at 352 447-5285.
Marsha Drew
Levy County Commissioner, District 3

Can a mobile phone motivate you to exercise? Does instant feedback on petrol use change how people drive? Do online rating systems inspire people to behave better online? This symposium will focus on how digital technology can motivate and influence people (or agents). It will bring together researchers, designers, and developers interested in computers designed to change attitudes and behaviors in positive ways. In a persuasive communication, a source tries to influence a receiver?s attitudes or behaviours through the use of messages. Each of these three components (the source, the receiver, and the messages) affects the effectiveness of persuasion. In addition, the type of communication (the way the message is delivered) can impact a message?s effectiveness. This symposium will bring together researchers working on all these aspects of persuasion, from persuasive argumentation to persuasive user interfaces. Persuasive technology has a great practical potential, for instance to improve health (encouraging a reduction in alcohol intake, smoking cessation, an increase in exercise, more healthy eating, and adherence to medical treatment) and to move towards sustainable living (encouraging a reduction in energy consumption, recycling, and use of public transport). There is a growing interest within the research community into persuasive technology, as shown by the emergence of the new Persuasive conference series (in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, 2006; Stanford, US, 2007; Oulu, Finland, 2008; Claremont, US, 2009 persuasive2009.net), as well as the successful series of workshops on Computational Models of Natural Argument (www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~floriana/CMNA7/), which is an area overlapping with persuasion. This symposium follows on from the succesful Persuasive Technology Symposium held at the previous AISB (www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/~jmasthof/Persuasive/). In 2008, we brought together researchers from distinct subfields of Computing Science (namely persuasive technology and argumentation). Now, we would like to extend this further to include Psychologists. Initial contact with this community has been established at the "Designing digital interventions to help overcome addictive behaviours" workshop in Windsor earlier this year. The symposium will take place on two consecutive days. In addition to presentation by participants, there will be discussions in smaller groups on topics determined beforehand. We are also hoping to have one or two invited speakers. TOPICS OF INTEREST Submissions are invited on all aspects of Persuasive Technology. This includes, but is not limited to: - Behaviour intervention methods - Persuasive argumentation - Generating persuasive arguments (identifying discourse goals, choosing argument structure, content selection) - Ontologies for persuasion - Persuasive discourse processing: understanding what users say in terms of argumentation schemes - Computational models of argumentation - Rhetoric and affect: the role of emotions, personalities, etc. in models of argumentation. - Enhancing receiver involvement - User modeling - Modeling receiver involvement - Modeling receiver position - Modeling personality and affective state for persuasion - Effect of cultural differences on persuasion - Persuasive User Interfaces - Use of (multiple) Embodied Conversational Agents for persuasion - Communication settings (e.g. direct versus indirect communication) - Timing of persuasive messages/ when to interrupt the user - Effective presentation of arguments - Online dispute resolution - Mobile persuasion, persuasive images, persuasive video, persuasive games - Peripheral routes of persuasion - Humor in persuasion - Enhancing source credibility - Building trust using natural language - Models of on-line trust/credibility - Effects of Source appearance, source similarity - Alternative ways of persuasion - Using the influence of peers to persuade - Persuasion through incentives and punishment - Evaluation methods for persuasive technology and behaviour intervention - Ethics of persuasive technology - Applications of persuasive technology and behaviour intervention, like in healthcare, education, e-commerce, politics SUBMISSIONS Please submit your papers in PDF format via email to both symposium organisors. We invite both long papers of up to 6 pages on substantial research results, and short papers of up to 2 pages on more polemic, work-in-progress, burning issue or system description topics. Accepted papers will be published in the AISB proceedings, with an ISBN number. Authors of papers must sign a non-exclusive copyright declaration which gives AISB the right to publish the paper, but does not prevent the author from also publishing it in other venues after. We are investigating the possiblity of publishing the best papers in a special issue of a journal. Paper formatting instructions are provided on the AISB09 website (www.aisb.org.uk/convention/aisb09/downloads.php).

A new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention looks at whether spraying yards with pesticides reduces the risk of contracting a tick-borne disease.
The study indicates that tick–borne illness and tick encounters among those residing at properties treated with pesticide were not reduced. Cary's Rick Ostfeld offers an interpretation of the results.

I figured now would be as good of time as any to start an NBA thread, even though we're days from having the season cut maybe in half, and perhaps weeks from having it canceled. Some thoughts:
David Stern is I think showing himself to be a failure as a commissioner. While the commissioner is employed by the owners, he represents the sport as whole. His failure to get sides talking, offer enough olive branches, mediate, negotiate, and too frequently take a hard line against players is coming back to bite him in the rear, and fast. In the NFL people said Roger Goddell was in over his head, but in the end he did nearly all the right things, didn't miss a game, got a 10-year deal, and everyone is fairly happy, with the general consensus the owners maybe got a little bit better deal, but not too much at the expense of the players. Nary a scratch on the league. The whole event a distant memory, with a cloudless sky in front of them.
No such chance for Stern. Maybe little left to salvage, with the "who cares" meter ranking at an all-time high for the NBA, and fans happy to accept the NCAA, and NHL growing in popularity. There's now talk of cities suing the NBA due to lost revenue, with Memphis leading the pack. Though I do think if the NBA can sign, and soon, it will come back in time, the damages will be, are becoming, immense.
And just today, the bombshell courtesy of Bryant Gumbel, comparing Stern to a "plantation overseer" which went way over the top, and probably showed himself to be more of a tool or fool than Stern, and a comment that hurt the players just as well I would think. At the same time, I feel as though Gumbal was expressing the frustration a lot of people feel as no solution seems in sight.
What a disaster.

Select a license model
If you select a license type that requires user payment, then you must associate a license model with your app. License models define how users access your app with respect to a license key.
Apps running on the BlackBerry 10 OS use a static license model, regardless of the selection made for license model in the vendor portal.
There are four kinds of license model: Static, Single, Dynamic, and Pool.
- Static: Users do not need a license key to run the app.
- Single: You must provide a single license key that all users can use to run the app. You specify the license key in the License Key field when you add a new app on the vendor portal.
- Dynamic: You must provide an address for a website that generates license keys. After a user purchases the app, the server for the BlackBerry World storefront connects to the website, retrieves the license key that the predetermined algorithm generated, and provides the user with the license key. If you select a Dynamic license model when adding a new app on the vendor portal, an HTTP URL field appears that lets you specify the web address for a license key. For more information about dynamic licensing, visit http://us.blackberry.com/developers/appworld/Dynamic_License_Flow.pdf.
- Pool: You must upload a
.txt file that contains unique license keys (one key on each line). BlackBerry World distributes a unique license key to each user that purchases
the app. When you add a new app on the vendor portal and select the Pool license
model, an Upload License File button appears so that you can upload your .txt
Your .txt file must contain at least 100 unique license keys. If the number of license keys drops to 50 or fewer, BlackBerry World sends you an email message requesting that you add more license keys. If the number of license keys drops to ten or fewer, BlackBerry World cancels the distribution of your app and sends you an email message requesting that you add more license keys.

Undistributed middle
For more information, see the Wikipedia article:
The Undistributed middle is a fallacy similar to to Equivocation, except that instead of conflating definitions, two different things are equated due to a common middle ground that is misused. The argument is assuming that the set of Object-A that has the middle ground intersects with the set of Object-B that has the same middle ground.
- Example 1
- All cats use air.
- All gasoline engines use air.
- Therefore, all cats are gasoline engines.
- Example 2
- Science uses the word Theory.
- Creationism uses the word Theory.
- Thus, Creationism is science.
- Example 3
- All fish live in water.
- All whales live in water.
- Therefore, all whales are fish (They're not - they're mammals)
