Weather Journal: More Blustery Winds
By Brian Kahn
Buds are starting to show on the trees, but Tuesday's cold weather won't make them open anytime soon. The high in Central Park on Tuesday was only 42 degrees. Winds gusting to 26 mph made it feel closer to 35 degrees. Mostly sunny skies only slightly mitigated the blustery conditions that likely left many a New Yorker's ears red.
Wednesday looks to be more of the same. High pressure hangs over the region for the second day in a row. A northwest flow continues to bring cold air south of the Canadian border, depressing temperatures 10 to 15 degrees below normal. Expect highs to again struggle to reach the mid-40s for most of Greater New York.
There will be a brief reprieve from the winds overnight before they ramp back up Wednesday morning. Gusts up to 35 mph are possible in the late afternoon, especially out on eastern Long Island and along the coast.
On the bright side, mostly sunny conditions will again reign. That still won't be enough to convince buds to burst or New Yorkers to shed their winter coats.
Nation's Top Climate Scientist Retires
Dr. James Hansen, head of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, announced his retirement Monday night. Hansen has spent more than 40 years working for NASA. His initial work looked at Venus, but since the mid-1970s, Hansen's main area of focus has been the Earth's climate and human's interaction with it. His testimony to Congress in 1988 about climate change in 1988 raised the profile of the issue, and his subsequent research sounded the alarm about what he's deemed "the Faustian bargain" of increasing greenhouse gas emissions at the risk of dangerously altering the Earth's climate.
Hansen has been outspoken about the U.S. government's inaction at curbing greenhouse gas emissions and has engaged in civil disobedience against new coal plants and the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, which would ship tar sands from Canada to ports in the U.S. In stepping down, he will spend more time pursuing legal actions that challenge federal and state regulations, or lack thereof, regarding carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas. More activism might also be in the cards for Hansen who said in an interview yesterday, "At my age, I am not worried about having an arrest record."
Weather Journal's Greater New York forecast roundup for Tuesday:
- WSJ Headquarters in Manhattan:
- Actual High: 43; High feels like: 33
- Actual Low: 30; Low feels like: 26
- Weather: Blustery with mostly sunny skies
- Brooklyn: 45/31
- Queens: 46/33

I am trying to replace the theme with a responsive one on my site, The Biker's Garage. I am wanting to retain much look as much as possible, and this "nav" issue ruins it.
At the moment the theme is in my MAMP development area, so I cannot provide a link.
Thanks very much for any help you can offer.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Indiana signee Troy Williams scored 21 points on 9-for-13 shooting and recorded four assists and five rebounds to lead the Black Team to a 124-113 win over the White Team at the Derby Festival Classic Friday night at Freedom Hall.
Williams knocked down a pair of 3-pointers, but also threw down several thunderous dunks, wowing a reported crowd of 10,205. The star swingman from the Virginia powerhouse Oak Hill Academy did all of that damage in just 18 minutes of action.
"It's the 40th year, so it's nice to go down in history getting this trophy," Williams said. "It's just a great feeling."
Williams was one of five Indiana signees on the Black Team. Warren Central forward Devin Davis had 14 points on 7-for-8 shooting and recorded eight rebounds. Center Luke Fischer from Germantown (Wis.) High School had 12 points, six rebounds and three steals. Cathedral swingman Collin Hartman had seven points and four rebounds. He hit a 3-pointer but was 2-for-7 from the field. Guard Stanford Robinson had six points on 3-for-9 shooting but also had four assists.
Syracuse commitment Tyler Ennis added 20 points for the Black team and Hamilton Southeastern swingman Zak Irvin, Indiana's Mr. Basketball and a Michigan signee, had 13 points. Jarrell Martin, a Louisiana State signee, and Kansas signee Connor Frankamp scored 20 points each for the White team.

If these IU freshmen stay together, they should be scary good in a few years.
Again, you can only take so much away from these types of games. But seeing the talent and athleticism our guys display– if only in flashes in limited court time– you can't help but get excited.
IU is due for a couple big ten titles + big ten tournament titles + a pre-season tournament title or two and a couple NCAA championships…..and a few 30 plus win seasons in the next 5 to 7 years; otherwise everything is just fluff and underachievement for the whole program!
Dustin or Jeremy, I remember you said something a while back about recruits only being able to play in two All-Star type games and that's why Noah wasn't participating in this one (having played in both the McD's and Jordan Brand contests.) Am I correct in assuming they don't count the annual IN-KY all-star series since it's not a national event?
I could be wrong, but if last year's IU recruiting class was "the answer," this year's class looks like "the solution." Plenty of reasons to be excited about this group and what they can accomplish at IU. If everyone stays healthy, think next year's team may surprise a lot of the "experts."
I'd also like to make a prediction right here. Collin Hartman will not have any problem finding girls that will date him during his time at IU.
I told you guys by March next year's team will be better than this year's team. We now have the athletic ballas that CTC envisioned for the program to become elite. I can see Robinson and Williams working on their outside shot all summer to put us over the top.
Dustin recently made the dumbest post of all time with Lunardi's bracketology but you'll see it's dumb because he'll have had us seeded too low.
Pretty sure last years class was dubbed "Yogi and some other people" it was a catchy label and I saw many tshirts made and numerous twitters
The only "expert" next year's team is likely to surprise: Podunker.
watched the Nike Hoops Challenge ..World vs USA. Dante Exum was outstanding; I hope CTC pursues this young man hard.He was the only 2014 grad playing for either team against the USA-signees. he must be 6 ft 6 now and should be a 5 star combo guard small forward ..a troy williams type player
Never claimed to be an expert, just a Hoosier fan. Obviously, the troll that wrote #9 is neither.
Aruss, the more I learn about the guys in this class, the more I agree with your optimism. Next year, the issue for these freshman won't be talent, it will be physical endurance. The Big Ten is a physical grind, no matter how well conditioned a freshman is. Even if they avoid major injuries, the freshman's physical and mental stamina is going to be challenged. But hopefully, the depth Crean now enjoys will allow the team to survive the learning curve associated with the college game with enough energy leftover to make a run in March.
Po – wouldn't be surprised to see an arc similar to Michigan's this season… Good start, rocky middle, and good end… Their team this year is actually very similar to ours next season.
Very good soph PG (Burke – Yogi)
Upperclassman wing scorer (Hardaway – Sheehey)
Some returning size with potential (Horford/Morgan – Perea/Hollowell)
A bunch of very talented freshmen (Stauskas/Rice/McGary/LeVert/Albrecht/Beifeldt – Willams/Davis/Vonleh/Robinson/Fischer/Hartman)
It will be intersting to see how it pans out. According to this model the entire key is Yogi… I can't wait to see the strides he makes now that its his team.
As the point guard I can certainly see how the team can be described as "Yogi's team". As far as the emotional leader of the team, this team will be Will Sheehey's team. I see that as a good thing. Will has the killer instinct. He's willing to step on the throat when the game is in the balance. He'll never back down. Some complain about his demeanor, but not me.
Will is a warrior.
Let's just hope yogi doesn't transfer along with Remy. I've heard crazier things happening.
Where do you get this garbage? Yogi would have to sit out a year, & Crean gave him the keys to the kingdom from day 1. Not to mention, the older he gets the more freedom he'll get. Yogi isn't going anywhere. I was at this game and Williams is a starter from day 1. He's that good.
Harvard who's yo daddy?
Flipping through the channels and catching a little of the NBA playoffs, I realized who Sheehey reminds me of. With his super aggressiveness to the point of bordering on out of control and slashing style he reminds me of Manu Ginobelli of San Antonio. If he could learn to handle the ball like him, Will would definitely have a career in the NBA.
And I agree, if this team takes on Will's work ethic and demeanor we are looking at a final four run with this talent.
Aruss, I like your comparison to Ginobli, but Sheehey developing ball control is a huge "IF." At present, he cannot be trusted to dribble more than a few feet without handing the ball to the defender. Are "handles" something that can be developed/improved upon at this stage in a player's trajectory?
Chet, a hearty BRAVO for post #13. WS most certainly can improve his "handle" this off season. Regardless of what MT says he is not that far away now.
I was never a fan of Will's (or anybody's) showboating histrionics, but I'm beginning to come around. I got the impression he was somewhat muzzled after the Purdue game, and it seemed to have an effect on his intensity. We never want our guys to lose that "edge," whatever that means. So as long as our bravado doesn't translate into an all-out orangutan show, I can learn to live with a little bit of theatre.
A player can develop and maintain an "edge" without doing anything that allows others to question one's sportsmanship. Being a senior leader next season, and presumably a starter, Sheehey will be required to modify some of his on-court behavior.
So when Crean puts this on his Twitter page, it's rather deceiving when looking at the horrendous perimeter shooting numbers during the tournament.
I hope WS next season is much more like he was before he and TC had the post PUke game chat.
My guess is that we will see WS's behavior change as a result of responsibilities as a senior leader and a starter. I'm hoping he has a great year that allows him to play at the next level.
Crean believes Sheehey will make a great head coach some day.
Another sign of the Establishment…We win two NCAA tournament games and the only score posted at the top of Scoop is the loss to Syracuse.
Is there plenty of room to display the wins over James Madison(Dustin's alma mater) and Temple? Answer: Yes
Was there always more than one final score posted during the regular season? Answer: Yes
And why did Scoop turn our trip to DC into the "Going Home" Victor Oladipo story? Was it to possibly create a polarization within the team and make it more about one player than the Hoosiers unselfish mission to get to a Final Four? Answer: Yes
There is so much more to be seen in that one lonely score posted on the Scoop header…So, so, so much more.

This is Box Number 3. From the point that you found Box number 2 from here return to the path that you have been walking on at Salem Lake keep walking up a small hill that curves to the left. As you walk listen to the birds. My children and I love to come here during the early Spring and Summer. Cross underneath a set of power line. Keep walking past trees that are laying in the water. Continue on the path past a small hollow stump that is on your right (it is a short hollow stump).
Go up a small hill and to your right, you'll see a "V" shaped tree that has a limb through it. Here are rocks that you can go and sit on and be near the water and rest awhile. To your left you'll see where someone has had a small campfire. Stand infront of that area, and look straight ahead and you'll see another "V" shaped tree with a rock infront of it. Walk to that tree and turn left, the lake then is going to be on your right. Walk about 29 steps, look to you left and then walk 11 steps up a hill towards the rock next to the road. Under several logs and near a rock is what you have been seeking.
From here if you are interested in looking for BOX NUMBER FOUR pull up the name of the box called, "Keep on Canoeing".
Please let me know when you find the box.
P.S> Please read below information, you might find it beneficial...
This is the first box in a series of four.
The series starts out and goes as follows: BOX 1 - "Where Trees Grow and Kids Climb", BOX 2 - "Watermelon and Ants", BOX 3 - "Keep the Campfires Burning", and then BOX 4 -"Keep on Canoeing".

Barry, now we know Glyphosate is being applied to the Lanphere Dunes,
seems that it is worth a mention, as in what the hell is going on with
HSU and why the sheer cowardice in reporting?
I have had three distinct encounters, each of which has been life-changing.
Well, I have left my comments at length. But your NCJ posting of comments system... After I posted... Your system posted my comments with a bright yellow frame border line... And a tag sign on top said, "Hold for 5 minutes to edit or delete".
What's up? I posted some very vital important sources for community edification about big global crisis with GMO everything!
I hope my comments content is NOT deleted!
Does your comments posting system ONLY allow a maximum of so many characters?
It did not state any limits before or after my pressing POST.
I will send this my 2nd comments post and seen what happens.
Hi Barry! GMO everything is monopoly monster madness mergers mounting...yes it is only getting way worse with GMO super weeds crisis global crisis new mega new GMO super poison
Pesticides to try and control super weeds by GMO... All the SCI-FI horror shows of wacko weird fake foods products are pumping out of GMO labs faster than you can have massive nightmares about fake foods full of poisons... New editions and renditions churning. This is not going away anytime soon.
The worst of the worst world order secret global corporate gov pacts from hell, the TPP - TRANS PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP pact from hell is hostile coup by over 666 mega multinational corporations buying our national, state, county and city legal sovereignty from WA, DC criminals politicos willing to sell USA and our planet Earth out and destroy everything for pennies on the $billions and $trillions for their owners profiteers MONSANTO and others.
Many millions of people around the world and 90% of USA citizens oppose GMOs. USA is part of 7 massive events been held, GLOBAL MARCHES AGAINST MONSANTO...and all the nations where GAFTA and NATT filthy dirty trade deals with MONSANTO corp invading INDIA taking over lands and farms and wiping out the local healthy heirloom organic crops the indigenous farmers have been successfully growing for centuries. This ever unfolding heart wrenching story of horrors of India's farmers wiped out SOOO stolen lives. Over 300,000 farmers have committed suicides because their ability to farm traditionally has been stolen! This is just one of the horror stories from other nations! This is the GLOBAL nightmare come out of Clinton's GAFTA NATT sick deals for HRC's big cronies client and campaign manager MONSANTO corp owns HRC since a young bitch lawyer! MSM does not cover the GLOBAL MARCHES AGAINST MONSANTO with mega millions of people so strong and articulate and boldly courageous! USA gov is sabotaging our common will and good and driving our standards into the darkest dumpster. Traitors.
We are getting screwed while RUSSIA bans all GMO and Russian AG is heirloom certified organic
With happy pollinators of all kinds. 70 nations either outright BAN GMOS or require GMO full disclosures on labels. 70 nations OUTSIDE the USA.
Much evidence for 20 years that over 90% of us USA citizens demand TRUTH on labels, every ingredient. What do we get? Nothing. We have demanded full disclosures of BIG CHEM poison PETRO fertilizers, fungicides, herbicides, pesticides. The vast majority of USA citizens are on record for TOTAL BANS on EVERYTHING GMO. We want to be honest articulate adults DAMM it and claim the best standards in the world, not the worst which is what WA, DC 90% whores for the 1% poison PETRO corporations BIG AG BIZ committing crimes against humanity, the rights of heirloom organic nature and all living things.
This GMO issue just keeps on expanding with USA big gov who DO NOT CARE!
We do not get to vote. the deep secret global gov, by, for and of the corporations. We really must engage with our leaders globally and in USA for in depth full circle community awareness of this war on our health and safety that has polluted our planet egregiously so that killer Roundup ingredient, glyphosate is everywhere and part of climate crisis and it all rolls down into our sick oceans.
Good comparison is our fake corrupt democracy for decades bursting broken big time reality TV casino circus crimes on steroids, fixed, rigged, tampered, manipulated, illegal, immoral, most obscenely overpriced ripoff poison 2016 presidential frauds elections in human history... What we got is the two most untrustworthy unpopular candidates ever. Like Julian Assange said who he would choose, said something went viral, "the choice is between cholera and syphilis. No choice!"
Please expand way beyond MSM gov news! Many wonderful USA alternative true news reporting, movies, books, foundations, forensic testing for purity and potentcy,
1. Health Ranger Mike Adams and www.naturalnews.com... Check out all the articles and searches, GMO madness.
2. www.drmercola.com
3. ELIZABETH KUCINICH Foundation in WA, DC is the core of truth and light regards horrors of GMOs. Many leaders connected in our movement do explain this very evil complicated issue.
And is major source of information regards Regenerative AG transition of crops and pasture lands to Heirloom Certified Organic... The Problems AND the solutions! We are the walkers and talkers in the NEW EARTH uniting to transform our collective consciousness from empire based to earth based. Stop watching MSM and computer games and Help bring this foundation's light into our Humboldt community now!
4. Get the documentary movie "CONSUMED" award winning...
This is a conflict between real and fake.
Please make this a BIG cover story soon! I am glad our county was able to say no on a ballot to GMO, but we should be very wary about the corporations scamming to make GMO marijuana
working away in their mad scientist labs on all kinds of ways... Will GMO marijuana be way bigger than real heirloom marijuana?... Like GMO Salmon is on steroids. There are no doubt all kinds of weird seeds strains invading Humboldt with thousands upon thousands of illegal super grows by big greed heads for recreational MJ without any of our Medicinal Marijuana local heirloom organic strict standards. We are AG and we are being invaded. MONSANTO wants to own every seed strain on earth and they buy up every good old heirloom organic seeds companies they can buy for decades. They take all the seeds and put them in their vaults and hide them so GMO patented corporate owned seeds/plants that cannot reproduce fertile seeds..
And that brings us to the wild subject of real and fake seeds in our human dilemma. OY VAY my garden home is under SEIGE!
UPDATE: Prez signed into law July 29.

The Von Ehrics
Robert Jason Vandygriff has led some form of The Von Ehrics for more than a decade now. In that time, the band has released four full-length efforts, the most recent being Two Foot Stomp. Despite various line-up changes over the years, Vandygriff's solid songwriting has helped the band's albums remain remarkably consistent.
And this latest one includes something of a new development: Two Foot Stomp is actually the first Von Ehrics album not written and recorded on tour, allowing the band more time to concentrate on each and every cut. One wonders whether or not a ragged punkabilly outfit like the Von Ehrics really needs extra time to flush things out, but the results on this new effort are pretty convincing.
While 2009's Crustacean featured a slightly more acoustic bent, nearly everything on Stomp is a full-on roar. Beginning with "Last of the Working Slobs" and finishing with "Texas (When I Die)," the Von Ehrics rarely take their collective foot off the gas pedal on this one. Sounding like The Replacements in their prime, mixed with the old-school cow-punk of The Gun Club, Vandygriff and his buddies show no signs of slowing down or letting up as they stake their claim to being the best punk band, cow- or otherwise, in Dallas.

Most of Kingsborough Community College Instructors are unqualified to teach and do not have interest in teaching. The reason they come to Kingsborough Community College is because they could not make it in the real world. These instructors are really not interested in student's success nor do they care if students graduate or not. Instructors at Kingsborough look at their students as criminals and always have a suspicion the students are up to something. There are plenty of students in Kingsborough who really want to study but the negative environment induced by Instructors is unbearable for learning. In fact Kingsborough Community College has 38,000 students attending and only 120 a year graduate; that is .135 %. Imagine all this financial aid money going to instructors that do not produce graduates. That is a Financial Aid Fraude.

Internet access around Fiji is spotty. You can usually get access (whether you're on your own laptop or on a shared computer) in the major cities—Suva, Lautoka, and Nadi—which all have a number of Internet cafés, and most accommodation (from backpackers to resorts) have access. In these areas, access is cheap; usually about 10¢ per minute. Outside of the cities, especially in the outer islands, access is more difficult to come by and you'll pay for the privilege; the fees nearly double the price of that in urban areas.
For travelers carrying their own laptop, it makes sense to create a dial-up account with a service provider like Connect or Unwired Fiji.
Connect (www.connect.com.fj.)
Cybercafes (www.cybercafes.com.)
Unwired Fiji (www.unwired.com.fj.)
The good news is that you can now make a direct-dial telephone call from virtually any point on earth. The bad news? You can't always do so cheaply. Calling from a hotel is almost always the most expensive option; hotels usually add huge surcharges to all calls, particularly international ones. In some countries you can phone from call centers or even the post office. Calling cards usually keep costs to a minimum, but only if you purchase them locally. And then there are mobile phones, which are sometimes more prevalent—particularly in the developing world—than land lines; as expensive as mobile phone calls can be, they are still usually a much cheaper option than calling from your hotel.
Fiji's country code is 679.
Calling Within Fiji
The best option for making phone calls in Fiji is to use a phone card and dial direct, as it's usually the cheapest and the most reliable. Phones are available in most hotels and resorts. Local calls are usually free, and you can use a phone card for the international calls. Public phones are scattered throughout the city, but they're rarely in working order. In the outer islands, satellite and cable systems provide some phone access, but it's spotty at best, and calls tend to be more expensive than calling from the major cities.
Calling Outside Fiji
When calling from Fiji, put 00 before the number. International directory assistance in Fiji is 022.
Calling Cards
The cheapest way to phone home is by using a phone card to dial direct. You can buy phone cards at post offices, news agents, dairies, and some pharmacies and petrol stations.
Mobile Phones
If you have a multiband phone (some countries use frequencies different from those used in the United States) and your service provider uses the world-standard GSM network (as do T-Mobile, Cingular, and Verizon), you can probably use your phone abroad. Roaming fees can be steep, however: 99¢ a minute is considered reasonable. And overseas you normally pay the toll charges for incoming calls. It's almost always cheaper to send a text message than to make a call, since text messages have a very low set fee (often less than 5¢).
If you just want to make local calls, consider buying a new SIM card (note that your provider may have to unlock your phone for you to use a different SIM card) and a prepaid service plan in the destination. You'll then have a local number and can make local calls at local rates. If your trip is extensive, you could also simply buy a new cell phone in your destination, as the initial cost will be offset over time.
If you travel internationally frequently, save one of your old mobile phones or buy a cheap one on the Internet; ask your cell phone company to unlock it for you, and take it with you as a travel phone, buying a new SIM card with pay-as-you-go service in each destination.
Vodafone is the primary mobile phone company in Fiji; Mobal and Planet Fone also have coverage. You can rent a phone for approximately $5 per day. Check out the Web site for more information. If you bring your own mobile phone, ask your company about rates in Fiji as you may end up paying international rates for local calls.

Sense-for-sense translation
|This article may be in need of reorganization to comply with Wikipedia's layout guidelines. (June 2012) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|Part of a series on
|Related topics
Sense-for-sense translation is the oldest norm for translating. It fundamentally means translating the meaning of each whole sentence before moving on to the next, and stands in normative opposition to word-for-word translation (also known as literal translation), which means translating the meaning of each lexical item in sequence.
The coiner of the term "sense-for-sense" was Jerome in his "Letter to Pammachius", where he said that, "except of course in the case of Holy Scripture, where even the syntax contains a mystery," he translates non verbum e verbo sed sensum de sensu: not word for word but sense for sense.[1]
However, arguably Jerome is here not inventing the concept of sense-for-sense translation, which most scholars believe was invented by Cicero in De Oratore ("On the Orator"), when he said that in translating from Greek to Latin "I did not think I ought to count them out to the reader like coins, but to pay them by weight, as it were."[2]
And he is certainly not even coining the term "word-for-word," but borrowing it from Cicero as well, or possibly from Horace, who warned the writer interested in retelling ancient tales in an original way Nec verbo verbum curabit reddere / fidus interpretes: "not to try to render them word for word [like some] faithful translator."[3]
Some have read that passage in Horace differently:
- Boethius in 510 CE and Johannes Scotus Eriugena in the mid-9th century read it to mean that translating literally is "the fault/blame of the faithful interpreter/translator," and fear that they have incurred it; Burgundio of Pisa in the 1170s and Sir Richard Sherburne in 1702 recognize that Horace is advising not translators but original writers, but still assume that he is calling all translation literal; and John Denham in 1656 and André Lefevere in 1992 take Horace to be warning translators against translating literally.[4]
Similar concepts[edit]
In his 1680 preface to his translation of Ovid's Epistles, John Dryden borrowed the ancient terms metaphrase for word-for-word translation and paraphrase for sense-for-sense translation. He takes the opposition from Quintilian's 95 CE Institutio Oratoria ("Institutes of Oratory"); Quintilian himself borrowed the former term from Philo Judaeus in his 20 BCE De vita Mosis ("The Life of Moses").[5]
Dryden's third term is imitation, by which he means something like what Horace counseled: making a traditional story your own by not translating it faithfully (either word-for-word or sense-for-sense). Not all commentators are so careful with these terms, however. Many have drawn a simple binary opposition between "free" translation and "literal" or "direct" or "close" translation, meaning by the former something that vaguely covers the entire range from sense-for-sense translation to free imitation and by the latter something like word-for-word translation.
Eugene A. Nida's terms dynamic and formal equivalence have also been taken to mean essentially the same thing as sense-for-sense and word-for-word translation, and Nida did often seem to use them this way; but his original definition of dynamic equivalence was rhetorical. The idea was that the translator should translate so that the effect of the translation on the target reader is roughly the same as the effect of the source text once was on the source reader.
Lawrence Venuti's concept of domestication or "fluency," too, is intended to capture something like the ancient notion of sense-for-sense translation; like Nida's distinction between dynamic and formal equivalence, however, Venuti's distinction is fundamentally rhetorical in nature, focused not on the formal structure of syntax ("segmentation") but on the relationship between the translator and the target readership. Like Friedrich Schleiermacher's distinction between "bringing the author to the reader" (domestication) and "taking the reader to the author" (foreignization),[6] from which Venuti derived it, the distinction between domestication and foreignization is a hermeneutical one aimed at an ethics and politics of translation, and thus quite far from the linguistic formalism that characterizes segmentational approaches to sense-for-sense and word-for-word translation. But there is also a strong sense in which domestication is a geohermeneutical rethinking of sense-for-sense translation, based on the recognition that the ancient preference for sense-for-sense translating is grounded not in pure formalism but in a specific generalized hermeneutic of "natural language" and easy accessibility for target readers who don't want to work too hard, and have no inclination to rethink their world.
So foundational is the distinction between sense-for-sense and word-for-word translation to two millennia of thinking about translation, numerous authors have invented new terms for them that do not actually add anything to the distinction. A case in point is Peter Newmark's distinction between "semantic equivalence" (word-for-word translation) and "communicative equivalence" (sense-for-sense translation).
The technical term for the approach to translation that distinguishes between sense-for-sense and word-for-word translation is "segmentation": the two methods are essentially different ways of segmenting the source text for translation, into individual words or phrases, clauses, sentences, and larger textual units.
In rare cases, sense-for-sense translation overlaps with word-for-word translation. For example, when the German sentence Johan ist nicht zu Hause is translated as Johan is not at home, that target text is an "idiomatic translation"[7] of the whole sentence that also renders word for word:
- Johan
- ist = is
- nicht = not
- zu = at
- Hause = home
It could also be argued, of course, that zu Hause is literally "to house," and that translating it "at home" effectively renders the two words not as two words but as a coherent idiom. This reading would undermine the claim that the translation "Johan is not at home" is both word-for-word and sense-for-sense: "at home" would be a sense-for-sense but not word-for-word rendering.
Cases in which a sense-for-sense is identical to a word-for-word translation are extremely rare because different languages almost invariably structure sentences differently (use different syntagmata or word orders). To reproduce some close approximation of the meaning of a whole sentence in another language, therefore, one must almost always change the word order to reflect the idiomatic syntagmata of the target language.
The fact that most translators and translation commentators have preferred sense-for-sense over word-for-word translation reflects the common assumption that the purpose of all translation is to communicate the meaning of the source text in a way that will be easily accessible to the target reader. Proponents of various literalisms (including foreignisms) dispute that generalization.

Felipe Massa is sure that he is no longer driving for his Formula 1 future at Ferrari, after delivering a podium finish in Japan last weekend.
The Brazilian finished in the top three of a grand prix for the first time in three years at Suzuka, with a result that will have boosted his chances of remaining at the Italian outfit next year.
And although no final decision has been taken by Ferrari chiefs about who will line-up alongside Fernando Alonso next year, Massa reckons that he has done enough now to prove he is worthy of a fresh contract at the Maranello outfit.
When asked whether he believed the podium finish in Japan was a boost for his career, Massa said: "I think it was very important for me actually.
"I am here to try and achieve results. I never raced to be just on the track, to just drive a car that I like to drive. I never raced for that. I raced to achieve the results, and I was always able to achieve in the categories that I did.
"So I think that is what gives me happiness, because when you stay a long time without the results you are not happy.
"I think it [the podium] was very, very important for me, more than anything - important for the future, important for all the way you work, the way the team is happy. So I think for sure it was very important for everything."
He added: "I don't think the result of this race will be important for my future, it is nothing to do with that – I am 100% sure. I think I am really in the right direction now."

The following has been adapted from
original text by Robin M. Sellers in
Seabird Populations of Britain and Ireland (with
permission from A&C Black, London).
Historically, great cormorants have been regarded as primarily
coastal birds in Britain and Ireland, but during the last 40 years
there has been a gradual shift of wintering quarters inland, to the
extent that almost every lowland lake and river has some. In
England, the number nesting inland in trees has increased from just
151 pairs at one colony in 1986 to 1,334 pairs at 35 colonies
in 1999-2002. This growth of inland colonies has been fuelled by
the immigration of the sub-species P. c. sinensis from
continental Europe. P. c. carbo nests predominantly on the
coast and constitutes most of the UK population, which accounts for
13% of the world population that is restricted to the northern
Atlantic coasts.
Great cormorant is currently identified as a conservation
priority in the following:

*AON = Apparently Occupied
The UK population figure (rounded to the nearest hundred) was
derived from data in Mitchell, P.I., Newton, S.F.,
Ratcliffe, N. and
Dunn, T.E. (eds.) 2004. Seabird Populations of Britain
and Ireland. Poyser, London.
This was also the source of figures for the Biogeographic and World
Note: The UK population figure above includes data from both
inland and coastal colonies hence differs from that tabled
Great cormorants build large conspicuous nests with coastal
colonies normally situated on stacks, rocky islets, cliffs or rocky
promontories. Many colonies persist at the same location for long
periods, but others come and go or suddenly shift location – the
presence of a colony in one year is no guarantee that there will be
one there the following year. This introduces uncertainty in
population size when counts from a number of years have to be
combined, as was the case during all three national censuses. To
limit this problem, an effort was made during Seabird 2000 to
reduce the number of years over which counts were obtained.
However, the timing of breeding by different pairs of great
cormorants within the same colony is not always synchronous
resulting in no guarantee that a single count of the nests will
reflect precisely the true number of breeding attempts.
Seabird 2000, like previous censuses, conducted a single
count at an optimum time within a given year (1 May-25
June), so population estimates are comparable although the
absolute size of the breeding population is probably

The Seabird
2000 census provides the most comprehensive recent
assessment of the distribution and abundance of breeding seabirds.
Numbers of great cormorant found in different regions,
and a map showing the location and size of colonies, is
provided on the Seabird 2000 great
cormorant results page (PDF, 2.0 mb).
interactive map is available on the NBN Gateway, where you can
filter to display only the Seabird 2000 data. For more
recent, but less comprehensive, coverage view the distribution on
the NBN with all available contributing datasets.
The locations sampled during the annual
Seabird Monitoring Programme provide some information on
distribution and are accessible via the Seabird Monitoring Programme
online database.
With reference to the regional
accounts below please note the following.
Breeding abundance:
graphs of abundance index with 95% CLs are only shown for a region
where the trend produced has been deemed accurate (see
methods of analysis). Where a trend was thought to be
inaccurate, graphs of abundance at major colonies in a
region may be shown instead, particularly if such colonies
hold greater than 10% of the regional population,
are monitored frequently and may thus help illustrate regional
population fluctuations outwith national censuses.
Occasionally, too few data have been collected regionally to
produce either of these.
Productivity: graphs
of productivity are only shown if analysis of breeding
success data produced a significant result for regional and/or
year effects (again see
methods of analysis). If results were not significant,
then a regional mean productivity value is given.
However, on some occasions too few data are
available from which to provide a meaningful average.
Furthermore, for 11 species where the quality of monitoring data
available was considered high, population viability analysis
was undertaken at the UK level and the results of this are
also reported.
Figure 1: Trend in UK
abundance index (solid line) of great cormorant 1986-2014 with 95%
confidence limits (dotted lines). Based on SMP data; view
the methods
of analysis (PDF 158 kb).
The abundance index for cormorant (which
includes inland and coastal breeders) increased between 1986 and
1995 but has mostly been in decline since then, apart from a short
period of increase between 2000 and 2004. The index in 2014 lies
close to that recorded at the start of the SMP. Prior to this,
census results indicate that the coastal population increased
slightly between 1969-70 (6,100 pairs) and 1985-88 (6,600
In the UK, inland breeding cormorants are
largely confined to England and increased markedly during the 1990s
(helped in part by immigration of birds from continental Europe of
subspecies P. c. sinensis). At the last census, in
1999-2002, inland breeders in the UK comprised about 18% of the
total breeding population (c. 1,646 of 8,884 AON). There
is pronounced regional variation in the trends of abundance in
great cormorant. Populations in northern Scotland have
declined severely. In England, inland colonies at least have
increased with 2,362 pairs nesting in 20124. In Wales, numbers have
been more stable. Increases in abundance up to 1995
are likely to have been facilitated by increased legal protection
instigated under the Wildlife and Countryside Act
1981. Factors responsible for recent declines are
likely to include increased mortality from licensed and unlicensed
shooting1 2, as well as possible changes
in food availability.
Great cormorants at colonies in the United
Kingdom fledged approximately 1.83 chicks per nest per
year between 1991 (no breeding success data were
submitted before this year) and 2014; there was no
statistically significant variation over time.
However, analysis of the SMP
dataset found the average breeding success in the great
cormorant to be 1.89 between 1986 and 2008 but
was declining at a rate of 0.027 chicks per nest per
year3. This equates to
a decline in breeding success of 47% between 1986 and 2008.
The quality of the dataset meant a change greater than
5% over 25 years would be detected with confidence. Although
breeding success has shown a significant decline over this time
period, because the number of nests monitored each year fluctuated
widely from 48 in 1989 to 1,095 in 2002, this trend may not be
representative of the population as a whole. If this level of
average breeding success was maintained, population viability
analysis (using available life history information such as
population size, clutch size, age at first breeding and
survival rates of different age classes) suggests a large
population increase, greater than 200%, may be expected over
the next two decades. For the population to decline by 25% over 25
years, breeding success would have to fall to 0.70 chicks per nest
per year.
Operation Seafarer
Seabird Colony Register
Seabird 2000
Population estimate (AON*)
* AON = Apparently Occupied Nests
Between Operation Seafarer and the Seabird Colony Register the
great cormorant population declined by 13% although numbers had
subsequently recovered by Seabird 2000, increasing by 21% since the
previous census. Although the SMP annual sample is not thought
to be representative of the Scottish population (e.g. the derived
trend from SMP data indicates a decline between SCR and Seabird
2000 in contrast to the above table) the number of breeding pairs
has probably declined since the last national census. For
example, compared with data collected during Seabird
2000, 32 colonies counted in 2013 held 715 AON
(cf.1,167 AON) and 20 colonies counted in 2014 held 539
AON (cf.927 AON), 38% and 42% fewer, respectively,
suggesting numbers have fallen. However, cormorant colonies
can move location quite quickly so apparent declines at
those monitored regularly may be due to birds moving
to nest elsewhere. These new colonies may not be detected
during routine monitoring by the SMP but will be detected by
national censuses, when geographical coverage is complete.
Great cormorants at Scottish colonies on
average fledged approximately 1.83 chicks per nest per
year between 1991 (no breeding success data were
submitted before this) and 2014; there was no statistically
significant variation over time.
Figure 1: Trend in abundance index (solid line)
of great cormorant in England, 1986-2014 with 95% confidence
limits (dotted lines). Based on SMP data; view the methods
of analysis (PDF 158 kb).
National census data indicate that numbers at coastal
colonies in England have increased between 1969-70 and
1998-2002. In conjunction with this, inland breeding cormorants (in
the UK largely confined to England) increased markedly during
the 1990s, helped in part by immigration of birds from continental
Europe of the subspecies P. c. sinensis. During Seabird
2000, the inland breeding population totalled 1,581 AON -
slightly more than recorded on the coast. In 2012, this
inland population was estimated at 2,362 pairs breeding at 48
sites4. Figure 1 shows
how abundance at colonies (both coastal and inland) has increased
since 1986. The trend climbs until 2003, after which there is some
fluctuation, although index values remain high compared to the 1986
baseline. This contrasts markedly with the UK trend which has been
falling during the last decade due to declines recorded in
Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The productivity of great cormorants
at colonies in England showed no statistically significant
variation over time; approximately 1.63 chicks were fledged
per pair per year between 1986 and 2014.

limits (dotted lines; drawing of upper limit restricted to preserve
detail in the abundance index). Based on SMP data; view
the methods
of analysis (PDF 158 kb).
National census data, together with the trend calculated from
colonies sampled by the SMP, indicate that great cormorant
abundance in Wales has remained fairly stable since 1969-70, albeit
with some fluctuation. The trend peaks in 1989 and 1994
with troughs in 1991, 1999 and 2002. Although the index has
declined in recent years it suggests numbers may still
be on a par with that recorded during the Seabird Colony
Register and Seabird 2000. Few inland colonies exist in
Wales; no updated information is available for
Figure 2: Trend in
productivity (no. of chicks fledged per pair) of great cormorant in
Wales, 1986-2014. Based on SMP data; view the methods
of analysis (PDF 158 kb).
Collection of productivity data at colonies in Wales has been
sporadic, especially in the first half of the recording period,
such that no clear trend is evident. However, there
appears to have been a decline in the number of chicks fledged each
year; the cause of this is unknown. No data were collected in 2012
or 2013.
Figure 1: Abundance of great cormorant at
Strangford Lough (Co. Down), 1986-2014.
In Northern Ireland, there are only six known great
cormorant colonies. These held 663 AON during Seabird
2000, which was 10% fewer than that recorded during the SCR
Census (736 AON) but six-times more than recorded by Operation
Seafarer (108 AON). However, as recently as 2010, just three
colonies (Strangford (Co. Down), Sheep and Little Skerries(both Co.
Antrim)) held 755 AON - almost 14% higher than during Seabird
2000. At Strangford Lough, the most frequently surveyed
colony (and also one of the largest colonies in the
country), numbers increased substantially post Seabird 2000
from 125 AON to a peak of 490 AON in 2005 (Figure 1),
although numbers have since declined; 309 AON were
recorded in 2014. Over the same period numbers on Sheep
Island have fallen from 380 to 95 AON. Two other colonies monitored
in 2014, Gobbins (Co. Antrim, 6 AON) and Little Skerries (91
AON), also appear to be in decline (peak counts of 46 AON in
1992 at Gobbins and 163 AON in 2010 at Little Skerries). No recent
data have been received from the other extant colonies in
County Down at Burial Island (67 AON in 2009) or North Rock (72 AON
in 1997). In summary, four of six known colonies held 501 AON
in 2014, but all are apparently in decline. Thus, it
would seem likely that the Northern Ireland cormorant
population is currently lower than during the last
national census unless numbers at Burial Island and North Rock
have remained stable.
Data submitted to the SMP on the productivity of great
cormorants in Northern Ireland are sparse; thus, no
meaningful average productivity value can be given.
Great cormorant numbers in the Republic of Ireland more than
doubled between Operation Seafarer and the Seabird Colony Register
to 3,981 pairs. Seabird 2000 found numbers had been relatively
stable since the SCR, having increased by fewer than 100 pairs.
Data are received from very few colonies each year, with no
data collected in 2014, but the three largest colonies during
Seabird 2000 (Lambay, Ireland's Eye and St. Patrick's Island, all
Co. Dublin) were all counted in 2009 and 2010,
and respectively held totals of 1,706 and 1,385 pairs in
these years (cf. 1,539 pairs in 1999). The current
status of the national population is, however, largely unknown as
cormorant colonies may move between years, and therefore
increases at some colonies may be offset by decreases
elsewhere. Only three colonies of smaller stature (each
holding less than 200 AON) have been counted since 2010 so add
little to our knowledge of current trends.
Data submitted to the SMP on the productivity of great
cormorants in the Republic of Ireland are sparse; thus,
no meaningful average productivity value can be given.
Note: Inland colonies were not counted during the two earlier
national censuses, so, to enable direct comparison, the
Seabird 2000 figure refers to the coastal population only.
For the whole of Ireland combined, national censuses
show an increase between Operation Seafarer and the Seabird
Colony Register, but numbers between the SCR and Seabird 2000 were
similar. Since then, data from a few of the largest
colonies suggest numbers have been stable in the
interim. For example, in Northern Ireland, four of six known
colonies held 509 AON in 2014, but numbers at all are
apparently declining. In the Republic of Ireland, no
data was collected in 2014. However, the three largest colonies
known during Seabird 2000, Lambay, Ireland's Eye and St. Patrick's
Island, were all counted in 2009 and 2010 and held totals
of 1,706 and 1,385 pairs in these years respectively
(cf. 1,539 pairs in 1999). Cormorant colonies
may move between years, therefore decreases at some
colonies may be offset by increases elsewhere, so
without comprehensive coverage the true status of
the All-Ireland population is uncertain.
Data submitted from colonies in Northern Ireland and the
Republic of Ireland are sparse. Thus, no meaningful average
productivity value can be given for All-Ireland.
Great cormorant numbers on the Isle of Man almost trebled
between Operation Seafarer and the Seabird Colony Register to 102
pairs. By the time of Seabird 2000 a further increase had occurred
with numbers rising to 134 pairs. All colonies were surveyed
in 2008 and 2011 when totals of 232 and 206 pairs were
counted, respectively. The 2011 data indicate an increase
of 54% since 1999 when all colonies were counted for Seabird
2000. In 2014, only nine (of a potential 16 colonies) were
surveyed, seven of which were empty (and have been for a number of
years now) with the other two holding 45 AON, although little
information can be deduced from this as to the current trend as
some major colonies were not visited.
Data submitted to the SMP on the productivity of great
cormorants in the Isle of Man are sparse; thus, no meaningful
average productivity value can be given.
National census data indicate numbers of great cormorants have
doubled on the Channel Islands since Operation Seafarer in 1969/70.
However, this increase occurred before the 1985-88 census as
numbers recorded during the Seabird Colony Register and
Seabird 2000 were virtually identical. No colonies have been
counted since the 1998-2002 census.
No systematic data on the productivity of great
cormorants on the Channel Islands have been submitted
to the SMP.

Police say woman died of accidental gunshot in Salisbury Mills
SALISBURY MILLS — A woman died Friday after she was accidentally shot in Salisbury Mills while handling her boyfriend's pistol, state police said.
Kristi Babcock, 30, was holding a gun belonging to Christian Benson at 141 Sycamore St. when it fired. Police are still investigating and anyone with information can call the state police barracks in Montgomery at 457-1388.
