The Internet and the Democratization of Stuff
Prominent industry figures embroiled in controversy. Message-board investigations. Broken standards.
No, not martial arts. Wine. We might as well be talking about the same thing, however. That utilitarian, libertarian utopia prophesied by the earliest Internet pioneers seems to be real--not as earth-shattering as expected, but revolutionary nonetheless. Niches like wine, politics, craft beer, martial arts, and journalism are going through tempestuous changes due to the internet's inherent crowd-sourcing effects.
If this doesn't remind you of Bullshido.net, you need to lurk a little more:
Parker initially claimed that the allegations concerning his colleagues were "totally fictitious" and were being peddled by "extremists." But as more details poured out on Dr. Vino's blog, he grudgingly acknowledged that, yes, mistakes had been made. (To see Parker's comments, check out post Nos. 11, 40, 71, and 117 on this thread.) This Internet rumpus soon found its way into the mainstream media; in late May, the Wall Street Journal ran a piece about the Miller affair. Parker, in a letter to the editor that he posted on his Web site (it never ran in the paper), asserted that he had dealt with the matter in a "forthright, transparent, and public manner." This didn't exactly square with what the commenters on his board had observed, and when some of them had the temerity to say as much, they were treated to a whiff of grapeshot: Some of them had posts deleted, and at least one longtime participant had his posting privileges revoked entirely. (Another, recently established, discussion board, Wineberserkers.com, quickly became a meeting point for the purged and disaffected. If you want to read some of the dissident literature, click here and here and scroll down.)
When people say we at Bullshido.net don't do anything, we now have a story arc to point to. We host video of martial-arts criminals in order to find them. We expose fake judo black belts. We promote good training practices.
But the common thread running through all of this--all our work, as well as our parallel selves on wine-critic sites--is that the Internet, by bringing together those with a common interest that is below some threshold of in-person popularity, is shining a light into the chasm between what people say and what they do.
Anyway, I thought it was interesting.What a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable. -Xenophon's Socrates

It's simply the ease and speed at which information can be obtained, and as a corrollary how quickly data can be fact-checked. A great (or bad) side effect is that it's often very hard to bury anything, such as damning forum posts or anything along those lines, as data is enumerated, archived, and propagated very quickly. Witness the Bobby Joe Blythe investigation, and how quickly copies of the evidence videos were made and spread around.

Did this part remind anyone else of kata demos being used as proof?
Last year, Jay Miller awarded a 96-point rating to the 2005 Sierra Carche. It was the first-ever vintage of this wine, produced in the Jumilla region of Spain by the same British company that makes the Fat Bastard line of wines. On the basis of Miller's gushing review, a number of point-chasing Parkerites raced out to buy the '05 Sierra Carche—and many were shocked by what they tasted. It was egregiously bad and had nothing in common with the wine Miller had described. One unhappy buyer e-mailed Miller to ask about the discrepancy and took the unusual step of sending him one of the bottles he had purchased in the hope that Miller could somehow account for the divergence of opinion. Miller never got around to opening the bottle, a fact that became known when other participants on Parker's board began to pipe up about their own dissatisfaction with Sierra Carche. Sure enough, when Miller finally uncorked the wine, he found that it was indeed terrible.What a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable. -Xenophon's Socrates

After following the kerfuffles in the blogosphere and here over the last two weeks, I think the one tried and true adage continues to apply -- it is less about the underlying issue and more about the cover-up/reaction. Controversies gain legs only through the cover-up. Honesty up front -- or even a sincere "I am not ready to comment on this but will investigate and get back to you" go a long way toward immediately squelching controversy. What I, along with others, noticed about Jay's response were that they were immediately defensive and evasive. If he had done something wrong, apologize and fix it. If he had not done anything wrong, explain why. If he was not in a position to comment at that moment because he needed to run his response by RMP first, then say that. Instead, it sort of ballooned unnecessarily.
The real issue is that in the case of, say, a Bullshidoka or these wine critic junkets, is that there is ongoing behavior that doesn't fit community standards. Behavior that undermines the community itself.What a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable. -Xenophon's Socrates

I can see your point , but , In the MABS threads i,ve seen where the subject actually shows up the reaction/attempted cover up (Morton & Brinn spring to mind) tend to dictate the direction of the thread , the more lies tried and uncovered the harsher the treatment.

Texas game wardens regularly encounter thieves, most often poachers – people stealing the property of the people of the State of Texas by illegally taking fish or game or other wildlife resources.
But they come across a lot of other criminals stealing different property.
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department wardens regularly find people in possession of stolen ATVs, motor vehicles, and heavy equipment.
The agency even devotes a small unit of specially-trained wardens to its Marine Theft Unit which investigates the amazingly common theft of boats and motors and the theft associated with scams involving boat titling and registration.
But this week's report of recent cases and incidents worked by TPWD wardens includes a type of theft not normally seen by wardens but far too commonly encountered in urban areas: metal theft.
With the price of scrap metal increasing, it seems thieves aren't limiting themselves to stripping wiring and pipe from homes under construction or stealing air conditioning units from churches and businesses and homes.
Increasingly, metal thieves are hitting farms and ranches and other rural property. I've heard of thieves stealing deer stands and stripping wiring from hunting lease cabins to sell as scrap.
But I hadn't heard of them stealing. . . well, let the field report tell the tale.
Here's this week's short list of woodland and water weirdness:
Hunt County Game Wardens Dale Waters and Gary Miller were contacted by a Fannin County rancher on March 22 regarding someone stealing his steel water troughs by pulling them to his fence and dragging them through.
Earlier, Warden Waters had seen a pickup carrying a large trough in the area of the scrap yard in Greenville.
Warden Waters advised the rancher, who then went to the scrap yard and found his stolen trough.
Case pending in Fannin County for theft.
Wharton County Game Warden Chris Bird was patrolling Lake Texana on March 20 when he contacted two fishermen.
The two men stated that they had purchased fishing licenses but had left them at home.
Obviously, the two didn't know wardens can easily check a computerized listing of purchasers of fishing and hunting licenses to verify if and even when a person purchased a license.
After checking current licenses through the agency's communications network, warden Bird advised both subjects that neither of them had purchased a fishing license in the past two years.
Citations issued; cases pending.
The same day, March 20, Wharton County Game Warden Chris Bird was dispatched to a call from a citizen complaining that a large dead fish had been hanging in a neighbor's tree for more than a week.
When Warden Bird arrived at the location, a man was standing under a tree cutting down an empty rope.
Bird asked the man if he had caught any fish and if they were on his property.
The man denied having any fish even, though the smell of dead fish was extraordinary.
After a brief search of the surrounding yard, Bird located two rotting black drum, both of which measuring more than 40 inches. (Black drum measuring more than 30 inches must be released.)
Subject received citations for possession of oversized black drum and failure to keep fish in edible condition.
Cases pending.
Zapata County Game Wardens Roy Martinez, Jerry Norris, Shane Bailey and Starr County Game Warden Brandon West responded to a search-and-rescue call on Falcon Lake.
Fishermen had reported via cell phone that their boat had stalled and was taking on water in windy, rough conditions.
The caller also reported another boater was attempting to help when his boat also began taking on water.
Wardens quickly made their way to the area where the stranded boaters were located.
After careful assessment of the situation, the wardens decided it would be best to rescue the fishermen from the disabled boats, transfer them to the warden's boat and leave the disabled boats behind.
Once the fishermen were safe aboard the warden's boat, they were questioned on events leading to their call for help.
They stated that their boat began to take on water when they were caught in high waves generated by windy conditions.
The fishermen were safely returned to the boat ramp and advised by wardens to take wind conditions into consideration before their next fishing trip.
The fishermen expressed gratitude for the help and advice.
Game Warden Jerry Ash caught two males trespassing at Lake Monticello at the hot water discharge on the Luminant Monticello Power Plant property on March 20.
The subjects had already caught 35 catfish before Ash interrupted their fishing trip.
While Warden Ash was issuing citations for criminal trespass, a boat came around the corner and quickly entered the restricted area.
Ash issued a citation to the operator of the boat for boating in a restricted area.
Victoria County Game Wardens Travis Haug and Jon Kocian were patrolling the Victoria Barge Canal on March 20 when they encountered three adult males and one juvenile male on the bank adjacent to fishing poles.
Upon inquiring about who was fishing with the poles, wardens were told only the juvenile was fishing.
While wardens were interviewing the subjects, one of the adults asked another for keys to the group's car.
When the other subject was removing his car keys from his pocket, a plastic bag dropped in front of Haug and Kocian.
The subject was arrested and taken to the Victoria County Jail for possession of cocaine.

This opposing left edge is used. Since it's not mentioned (as you say), it's clearly ignored, according to the current spec. This means that, according to the current spec (and the test results you described), the use of the left edge when positioning right floats in IE, Safari, and Opera 9.26 (but not 9.5) is a bug. That said, I can see the value in changing the definition to prevent having overflow in a direction the user cannot reach by scrolling. However, given how long the current rules have been in place, I think it's too late to change this. These rules have been quite clear since CSS1 (see http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS1-961217#floating-elements , and note the December 1996 date). > Please see this test case (this case also applies to the body element). > > http://css-class.com/test/css/overflow/float-container-margin-overflow.htm > > > Resize the browser window until the green element floated left is > being hidden in the overflow container.

This clipping I > have spoken about in my list messages. I think the Gecko 1.8 behavior (having space for the padding past the overflow) is probably preferable for authors, although as far as I can tell the spec requires the Gecko 1.9 behavior (since the padding box lives inside the border box and its size is not influenced by the overflow). It might be worth considering changing the spec here, but looking at this issue requires looking at testcases that don't trigger a whole bunch of other differences in behavior. -David -- L.

Send Recycled Greeting Cards to Charities
Although this article isn't about travel I thought it was something that might interest readers.
I always hate to throw away all the beautiful Christmas cards and other greeting cards that arrive throughout the year. With the holidays upon us, here's a way to donate those used cards and they'll get a new life and won't go into the trash.
For more than 40 years, St. Judes Ranch for Children has provided a safe, nurturing home and therapeutic residential treatment services to more than 1,000 children in Nevada and Texas. St. Jude's Ranch is making a difference by creating new lives with new skills for abused, abandoned and neglected children of all races and faiths.
Here's the information from their website about the recycled greeting card program. https://www.stjudesranch.org/contribute/recycled-card-program/
Operated by Kids' Corp., a program for the children at St. Judes Ranch to learn entrepreneurship skills, the children participate in making the new cards by removing the front and attaching a new back. The result is a beautiful new card made by the children and volunteers. The benefits are two-fold: customers receive "green" holiday cards for use and the children receive payment for their work and learn the benefits and importance of "going green".
The ongoing support for the Recycled Card Program has been overwhelming! The Program grew and soon we were receiving over one million cards. We have since redesigned the process to more efficiently manage the increased production from the increased volume and we welcome your submissions!
To Purchase Cards:
Cards are sold in packets of 10 for $10.00 and are available in the following categories:
General Christmas Cards
Religious Christmas Cards
Easter Cards
Birthday Cards
Thank You Cards
All Occasion General Greeting Cards
Orders may be placed by any of the methods below:
By Phone:
By US Mail:
Send your request and donation to:
St. Judes Ranch for Children
ATTN: Donor Office
P.O. Box 60100
Boulder City, NV 89006-0100
To Donate Cards:
We welcome your donation and ask that you please review the below tips before sending your donation. Currently, we have found the least expensive way to mail large quantities of card donations is through the USPS in a Flat Rate Box which holds up to 70 pounds (available at the Post Office).
Card Donating Tips:
All types of greeting cards, including Christmas are used.
Only the card front can be used (please check to be sure the back side is clear of any writing, etc.)
We can not accept Hallmark, Disney or American Greeting cards.
5" x 7" size or smaller is preferred.
Mail donations to :
St. Jude's Ranch for Children
Recycled Card Program
100 St. Jude's Street
Boulder City, NV 89005
NOTE: We currently have an increased need for both Birthday and Thank You card submissions.

What is Dark Fantasy?
Some people might be a little iffy on the differences between fantasy groupings. And, indeed, many books cross over. My book is a Dark Fantasy, but it's also Magical Realism and has touches of Paranormal. So what does it take to be a Dark Fantasy book? The consensus is that Dark Fantasy has scary, horror or thriller type elements but is primarily a Fantasy book rather than Horror.
But I'd like to make a different distinction because I love a few authors and take pointers from a few authors, when writing my own books, who are not even considered Dark Fantasy, necessarily: like Poe and Hawthorn (primarily short stories). They're work is spooky, so people tend to put them with horror or American greats. Those categories aren't bad, but I also thought them very Fantastical. They play with elements of what should be and what isn't. But mostly, they are scary because of they are uncanny, psychologically upsetting. And I think that a book which is a Fantasy that attempts an uncanny feel, that plays with many people's nightmares or psychological hang-ups in a unsettling way, that book is Dark Fantasy. Which is why Neil Gaiman is considered Dark Fantasy, one of my favorites, actually.
Monochrome is settled in a Contemporary time. It is not Epic or High Fantasy, but it has elements of magical, world creation, and, most importantly, darkness. It is a dark world physically, but it is also a dark world in feel. It's a place representative of depression, and so is terrifying and hopeless. That's why I am representing my work as Dark Fantasy, today, and I why I have joined Virtual Fantasy Con Dark Tuesday. So, please join us if you are fan of things dark and fantastical. Even if you're not, we are still interested in hearing from you and converting you. Mwahahahaha. Stop by our booths, giveaways and cosplay and have fun.

H.M Jones is the author of B.R.A.G Medallion Honor book Monochrome, being republished by Gravity, the Attempting to Define poetry series, and the soon to be released Masters of Time Anthology.

| Encarnación Fuentes or Carney as he's known by family and friends became interested in music with the arrival of the Beatles to the United States. While in junior high, he and some neighborhood friends decided to form a band and thus began his journey into music. It was about this time that he also began to feel an interest for songwriting, penning an English tune entitled "And Suddenly". His band at the time was called Sweet Rain and this song along with a flip side cover of James Taylor's "Fire and Rain", were recorded on the ARV record label which was the international label for the Falcon Record Company of McAllen. His song received a small amount of airplay on the local English rock radio station, KRIO.It wasn't until 1971 when he was asked to audition for the famous Tejano group "Los Fabulosos Cuatro" that his interest for songwriting truly developed. That year, Los Fabulosos Cuatro recorded one of the most popular albums of their musical body of work entitled "Como Ayer". In this album Carney wrote and arranged a total of 4 songs which includes "Lágrimas", "Divorciada Del Amor", "Solo Pido Tu Regreso" and "Tema de Los Fabulosos". He continued to write for subsequent projects by Los Fabulosos Cuatro and penned songs like "Adiós Mi Juan", "Que Ya Te Vas" (also recorded by Laura Canales and later Adalberto), "No Que No" and others. His most notable work and most covered song to this date is a song entitled "Buscando Estrellitas de Amor". This song was originally recorded by famed Mexican artist Josué in the 1970's. Later in this same decade it was covered by Carlos Guzmán in mariachi style, Country Roland in a billigual country version entitled "Searchin' for Stars", René y René in a Spanish pop version and finally by the famous Mexican group Liberación in a cumbia version. With the group Liberación this song became a big hit in the Mexican market and according to comments made by it's leader to Carney, it launched their career.Artists that have recorded songs by Carney include: Los Fabulosos Cuatro, Laura Canales, Adalberto, René y René, Carlos Guzmán, Country Roland Band, Flaco García y Los Valentinos, Liberación, Josué and most recently The Latin Breed.
Carney likes and will continue to stretch his writing wings into other genres. A good example of this can be found in his latest songs that were recorded by legendary Tejano band The Latin Breed for their last album release "Retro". In this album two of Carney's songs were selected, songs that show his ability to write in different styles. The first single release on this album is "Yo Sere Feliz" which is a tranditional Tejano style song. As the lead single for this album release, this song received strong airplay across the Tejano radio airwaves. The second song penned by Carney and selected for this project is a song entitled "Provocas En Mi". With this song, Carney demonstrates his ability to write in the Latin rock style.
Additionally, Carney has written several commercial jingles for a major Hispanic advertising agency headquartered in New York with field offices in Houston. These jingles were featured on both radio and television advertising throughout the Houston market. Lastly, having a Bachelor's degree in Spanish with a minor in music has given him the expertise to provide translation services to songwriters that need their songs interpreted in either language (English or Spanish).
Carney continues to write and hopes to become more involved in the music industry and any other industry that requires any type of musical works. He states, "I'm a songwriter and I'm well assimilated in both the English and Spanish cultures and as such, feel that I have the ability to write for whatever the project demands in either language". Currently he is busy writing for a reunion album project for Los Fabulosos Cuatro this coming year.

Six-cylinder engines tend to get little respect as performance engines when V-8s enter the picture as viable alternatives, yet a dedicated few still carry the six-cylinder performance torch, including the builder of this 1967 Ford Mustang for sale on Hemmings.com. While it needs paint and an interior, the pony has already been treated to a number of drivetrain upgrades, including a built 200-cu.in. straight-six and a five-speed manual transmission. From the seller's description:
200 cid, 1,500 miles on overhaul. Bored .060 over, moderate performance cam, Weber progressive 2 bbl, Hooker exhaust, Jet Hot Coatings, Mallory Unilite, over size valves, 1.6 ratio rockers, balanced and blue printed. Six blade flex fan with shroud. Tremtec T-5 transmission, power front disc brakes. Driver seat pan moved 2″ back. SCAT reclining high back bucket seats, 3 point seat belt kit for front seats. New 70 series tires, performance alignment. New gas tank. LED sequential turn signal/brake lights. Needs paint and interior.
See more Ford Mustangs for sale on Hemmings.com.
I never like to criticize peoples choices in engine modification. There's so much I don't know why people make those choices, got the parts free? The 200 c.i. engine, I feel, was designed for utilitarian duty, not that I haven't seen some RUNNIN' 6 cylinders, just not this type. The intake manifold is horribly inefficient ( log type) and is part of the cylinder head, not much one can do with that. Years ago, I had a friend that had a '67 Mustang with a 6 cylinder, and sunk a ton of money trying to make it run, and never got close to V-8 power, and it's such an easy swap. Perhaps that money could have gone into the restoration of the entire car, because a base is Mustang is kind of rare, as most did have V-8's.
True, once it's modified it's still modified even if it has the original engine type in it. Either way you've lost the "keep it original" guys.
….I'm sure the seller won't take your remarks as criticism, Howard………he's had his fun in the relatively mild build process, and now just wants to move on. Actually a 6cyl/5spd daily driver makes some sense in 2014, and he is offering one of the least expensive of the whopping 764 Mustangs for sale just in Hemmings. Pretty straightforward ad, good luck to him.
On the other hand, from a novice buyer's point of view, here's some unasked for advice………just enjoy this car for what it is……parts are cheap and available, but anything more than some door cards and a half decent respray will put you upside down in a heartbeat……you'll be old and gray before this one is ever considered a collectible, but as a driver it will probably outlast your grandkids (who, unfortunately, will sell it because they can't figure out that 3rd pedal).
Agree with other posters. Slap a MAACO "ambassador" paint job on it, Put NOS or junk yard door panels on it. Drive and enjoy! Rock solid mechanics, good gas mileage, and everyone will give you a "thumbs up" when they see it. No down side here!
Great to see vintage inline 6s being given some respect today, no matter how plebeian or inauspicious their beginnings. And honestly, does the world really need another V8 Mustang? I'd have to have a stock interior and exterior, though.
Swapping to a v8 in these cars is easy to do, badly. Factory v8 cars included a lot of upgrades that are not cost-effective for an owner-driver. There is a lot of speed equipment for the six from Classic Inlines, including an aluminum head with vastly improved flow.
If I were to ever buy a '65 – '70 Mustang, I would get a 6-cylinder model & restore it to original. Then, I would have printed up a bunch of cards that say, "It AIN'T for sale!" to hand out to anyone who asked. Hopped-up Mustangs are all over the place. The unmolested 6-cylinder models are getting scarcer all the time.
Inline sixes are cool. It's nice to have something a little different. This would be a great economical daily driver with the 5 speed I'm sure. Lot's of great info on working with these over at fordsix.com.
I recall a '65-66 mustang at the strip in the late '70's. it had the six in it,was built for modified eliminator so it had multiple carb's on it and a narrowed rear with big tire's and it looked funny with the hood scoop off to the side. it ran well to.
It is not an easy swap to an 8, as some have pointed out. The suspension starting with the four lug rims will not long handle a V8.
I would love to have one bone stock though with the L6.


text: So in wordpress when you make a blog post you can add tags, while pages don't have a tag area. My question is do tags actually matter to modern day crawlers? I'm writing a new site from scratch and wondering if I should incorporate keyword tags into each page the way wordpress does? Or should I just emphasize the keywords I want to target throughout the text of the article? Also I'm trying to merge 2 sites into 1, but I have multiple target audiences, so I'm not sure if I should rank the domain for all of the audiences, or rank difference categories of sub pages for each individual audience.... Basically I have a site where I post programming projects I'm working on, a blog where I make posts to show progress, and another site with a portfolio. The audiences are all over, potentially I want future employers to find my portfolio, I want children app store customers to find my apps/games (each game/project has it's own page, as well as a category of blog posts to follow development), I want people interested in making games/programming/modeling to read my tutorial section, blogs, etc. My programming projects thus far are half a dozen android games in various stages of completion, some php scripts, a software tool(pre renders 3d models and creates 2d animated sprite sheets/atlases), some javascripts, and other random stuff. The domain I got is just the name of my "studio", which I want to house my projects, but the subpages for each app will be what's linked to from google play, then my tutorials would be targeting people trying to make similar stuff.... How do you guys do it?

The car is a 2005 chevy equinox and I have gotten the oil changed every 3000 (w/ in 300miles) religiously. The oil light did not come on and the temperature was in normal range.

Phillies Sweep Braves in Thirteen Innings, End Braves' Wild Card HopesSaturday, October 1st, 2011
The Phillies gave Joe Blanton, and pretty much the rest of their bullpen, as well as lefthander Cole Hamels, as workout in Wednesday's regular season finale, a meaningless match-up with the Atlanta Braves. The Phils and Braves traded single runs in the first inning as Blanton again started the game going two innings. Hamels went three innings and gave up a 2 run homer to Braves 2nd baseman Dan Uggla who slammed a 2 out third inning homer to put the Braves up 3-1. The Braves got 3 hits in the third, one of the singles wiped out on a steal attempt. Hamels then settled down giving up a leadoff single in the fourth before retiring the last six hitters he faced in a row. Meanwhile, Tim Hudson cruised through six innings with the Brave holding their 3-1 lead.
The Phils finally got to Hudson in the seventh and ninth innings as leftfielder Raul Ibanez slammed a 1 out seventh inning double and came around to score on shortstop Jack Wilson's fielding miscue on catcher Carlos Ruiz's grounder. That chased Hudson and began a parade of seven Braves' relievers over the next seven innings. The Phils tied the game in the ninth against Braves closer Craig Kimbrel after loading the bases with1 out on a single and 2 walks. 2nd baseman Chase Utley's sacrifice fly drove in the tying run as Kimbrel, going for his 47th save, was charged with his 8th blown save and wore goat's ears. 7 Phil relievers followed Hamels into the game and young September call-up Justin De Fratus was credited with his 1st MLB win while David Herndon notched his 1st save in the Braves thirteenth after rightfielder Hunter Pence came up clutch with runners on 1st and 3rd base with 2 out in the thirteenth lining an RBI single to rightfield for the winning run as the Phillies swept the Braves in thirteen Innings by 4-3 to end the Braves' wild card hopes.
For the Phils, the win was their 102 of the season, an all-time franchise record. Charlie Manuel (646-488) passed Gene Mauch to become the Phils' all-time winningest manager.
AP's game recap for Yahoo sports provides notes on Wednesday's game.
With the Atlanta Braves being swept by the Phils and folding after holding a huge NL Wild Card lead, coupled with St. Louis Cardinals' shutout routing of Houston, the Cardinals are now the NL Wild Card team as the division playoffs begin with the Phils facing the Cards in a best of 5 game series for one of the berths to play for the NL pennant.
The Phillies, Cardinals NL divisional playoffs begin on Saturday as ace Roy Halladay is opposed by Kyle Lohse in the opener of a best of 5 series to decide one of the berths for the NLCS.

Scituate turbine finished despite obstacles
Pat Greenhouse/ Globe Staff
- Scituate's wind turbine is a beacon of perseverance
- Related Photo Gallery Scituate residents signs their turbine (1/21/12)
Were working on developing a website where people can look at production and real time data. I had a conversation earlier today, we may even make an iPhone app available to people who want to look at it on their phones, Shah said. But those are all things planned down the line, he said. The first focus right now is getting the turbine running, which we will do in the next couple of weeks, and we will work on public interfaces after that.
The hub and blade assembly of the Scituate wind turbine was lifted into place.
The hub and blade assembly of the Scituate wind turbine was lifted into place.
Yet as much as the town is rejoicing over the assembly of the turbine -- a beacon of perseverance along Scituates shores -- for some, the best moment is yet to come.For me, the best is the day they turn this on, the day they do their final testing and commission, Whalen said. Once you hear that, see the blades pitch and start to turn, hear the breakers kick in and the power start up, thats the moment I like the best.

One day there was a little pea in Ancient Greece that fell off the dinner table and rolled! It rolled to no end, until... it was called to by an autumn leaf.
The autumn leaf said " Little pea, little pea where are you rolling in from and where is it you are going," the autumn leaf asked.
"I have come from the dinner table of a gardener in Greece, but I know not where I am going," the little pea replied.
The autumn leaf looked very intrigued by the little pea for he had never seen anything like it.
"I have no friends at all, and i long for a certain little pea to be my friend," the autumn leaf told the little pea, trying to persuade him to stay with him. So, the little pea did.
But, eventually the little pea and the autumn leaf died, side by side.

(27 quotes found)
"This is neo-creationism, trying to avoid the legal morass of trying to teach creationism overtly and slip it in through the backdoor."
"The stakes are high. If Kansas gets away with it ... I anticipate that in every state where science standards are up for revision, we are going to be fighting another battle."
"People don't show up here (at the courtroom) because they believe evolution is bad science. They show up because they believe that if they accept evolution, then they are abandoning their religious beliefs. They see it as an either/or proposition: Either evolution happened, or God loves you."
"When they say 'teach the controversy' — their ringing phrase — they want us to pretend to students that scientists are arguing whether evolution took place. This argument is not taking place."
"Evolution makes biology make sense. And if you don't teach your students the evolutionary core of biology, you're making it harder for them."
"I never say that evolution is a fact. Evolution is a theory. It's much more important than a fact, because theories explain things."
"But no one is using irreducible complexity as a research strategy, and with very good reason ... because it's completely fruitless."
"It is already clear that the new slogan for the ID movement is going to be 'Teach the Controversy!' -- even though there is no scientific controversy over the validity of evolution in biology."

WASHINGTON - Senate Republicans are having trouble getting a majority to support drilling in an Arctic wildlife refuge, although the administration hopes Iraq's call for an oil embargo may rally lawmakers to the pro-drilling side.
If support doesn't pick up, some Republican senators have considered abandoning a Senate vote on drilling in the refuge, arguing that a poor showing in the Senate could jeopardize getting the measure into a final energy bill during negotiations later this year with the House.
The House energy legislation, approved last summer, already includes opening the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska to oil companies. But Senate Democrats have vowed to block an attempt to put a similar measure into the Senate bill and Republicans are far short of the 60 votes needed to overcome a Democratic-led filibuster.
A Senate vote on ANWR drilling had been expected as part of a broader energy bill this week, but now the prospects are uncertain, said several congressional sources, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Sen. Frank Murkowski, R-Alaska, made clear through a spokesman Monday that he still intends to press the case in the Senate and is preparing an amendment to the energy bill that would open the refuge in northeastern Alaska to oil development.
President Bush, meanwhile, sought to generate support for drilling in the refuge, telling labor and business leaders at the White House on Monday that the oil there "is needed more than ever" in light of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's announcement that he will suspend oil exports for 30 days.
"He's going to try to cut off energy supply to affect the United States. I mean, what more reason do we need than to have good energy policy in the United States to diversify away from somebody like him?" Bush said.
Bush's energy secretary, Spencer Abraham, struck a similar tone, saying: "This week more than any other we have the proof that the need for legislation to permit the United States to produce more oil at home and reduce our dependence on foreign sources of supply."
Senate opponents to drilling argue that oil would not flow from ANWR for a decade and even then do little to curb oil imports that are expected to continue to grow in the years ahead. A recent Energy Department study concluded imports would decline only slightly over what they would otherwise be if the refuge's oil were made available.
At peak production, ANWR would supply about 1.9 million barrels a day, according to the Interior Department estimates. The United States today uses 19 million barrels a day, 57 percent of that from imports.
Republican attempts to sway senators to support drilling have gotten nowhere close to the 60 votes needed to break a Democratic-led filibuster, according to sources on the pro-drilling side.
At least six Republicans have gone on record opposing drilling in the refuge and so far only four Democrats have publicly said they favor oil and gas development there. Some pro-drilling senators worry they won't get a majority.
To try to get wider support, some Republican senators privately have suggested scaling back lease sales to only the northwestern third of the 1.5-million-acre ANWR coastal plain. Geologists believe 80 percent of the oil may be located in that one-third area.
On Monday, the Interior Department produced an analysis that concluded that if oil development were limited to the northwestern one-third of the plain, there would be minimal impact on the calving activities of Porcupine caribou, one of the issues most concerning to environmentalists.
The new analysis was ordered after a government study, examining 12 years of research, concluded that caribou and other wildlife on the coastal plain were at risk and might be adversely affected by oil development.

Because of these expectations, the analyst says: "We are reducing AT&T's 2011 wireless subscriber additions from 6 million to 2 million (most of these new additions may be lower value connected devices such as eReaders instead of higher value long-term wireless customers), since we believe that Verizon could obtain Apple's approval to sell and provide wireless service for the iPhone as early as mid-2011."
While the numbers seem sensationalist, they could be a possibility. AT&T does have some measures in place to prevent such an "exodus," however. The company just raised its ETF (early termination fees) to $350 for smartphones, meaning leaving for another carrier could be a pricey transaction. Additionally, family-talk and business-discounted plans are hard to switch to new carriers with, and AT&T says about 80 percent of its customers have those types of plans.
Finally, there are still plenty of consumers out there that prefer the ease of a SIM card to CDMA activations.

Armed men killed three Lebanese soldiers near the Syria border overnight, an official said Tuesday, in the deadliest such attack since the start of the Syrian revolt more than two years ago.
"Three soldiers were killed by armed men while they were in a four-wheel drive vehicle east of Arsal," the security official told AFP, referring to a town in northeastern Lebanon where most residents support the Syrian uprising.
No army spokesman was available for comment and there were no more details immediately available.
Since the start of the rebellion in Syria against President Bashar al-Assad's regime more than two years ago there have been outbreaks of deadly violence on the Lebanese border.
Lebanon is sharply divided over the war in Syria and violence and the majority Sunni Muslim village of Arsal is a particular flashpoint as refugees from the uprising and fighters hostile to the Assad regime traverse the border.
Three mortar shells fired from Syria on Monday killed at least one woman near the eastern Lebanese town of Hermel, a bastion of the Hezbollah movement, a security official told AFP.
Since the start of the Syria conflict in March 2011, a number of rockets and mortar shells have struck Lebanese territory.
On two occasions, the rebel Free Syrian Army claimed responsibility for the attacks in response to Hezbollah's involvement in their fight to oust the Assad regime.

 Do you have some specific reason for this? IMG is an inline element and as such can appear anywhere, even in the middle  of a line or the end of a paragraph. So by not enclosing IMG in another element, you automatically include it in a preceding unclosed element, such as a paragraph. If an author (not you, obviously) wants an image to appear flush right following a specific word in a paragraph, that's doable. The same option is needed for a table, which in many ways is more akin to an image than a paragraph. In real life it's doable with both NSN and MSIE, yet it is proscribed by the HTML spec.

JimmyJane is a design oriented company that sells all kinds of erotic delights and its designs are always quite eye-catching as well. Their new design is a very innocent looking white chest called the Aficionado. But do not be fooled by its simple looks. It contains a treasure trove of pleasure. If you are still confused then let me just put it on the table for you.
The Aficionado contains three small vibrators, a body lariat, a silk and suede blindfold, candles, massage stones, and many more kinky articles. What is so special about these articles is the luxe treatment giving to them. The three vibrators are covered in precious metals and ringed with small diamonds. One of them, called Little Steel Tonight is made from satin-finished steel circled with 28 round-cut black diamonds.
If that is not enough, it is also decorated with a handwritten chorus from Dave Stewart's song and is attached to a leather cord threaded through the cap with a customized guitar pick. I am sure it has already made your imagination go wild. Would make a great gift for your special someone. But it's price tag of $10,000 might just make your pockets substantially lighter.

June 13, 2014
EUGENE, Ore. (GopherSports.com) – Wally Ellenson scored his second-straight outdoor First Team All-America honor on Friday night with a second-place finish in the men's high jump at the 2014 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships at Hayward Field.
Dominique Howard also picked up Second Team All-America honors for the Gophers on Friday in the men's discus, finishing ninth.
"We've had a great run so far this week at the NCAA championships, and Wally and Dom certainly brought their A game for us today," Minnesota Director of Men's Track & Field and Cross Country Steve Plasencia said. "We're thrilled for them and proud of them. You can't ask for much better than what our guys have given us this week."
Ellenson cleared 2.25 meters (7-04.50 ft.) to set a new personal record on Friday and improve his finish from last year's national championships (tied eighth). Ellenson was one of only two competitors to clear the 2.25 mark along with Bryan McBride of Arizona State. McBride went on to win the national championship at 2.28 meters (7-05.75 ft.).
The Rice Lake, Wis., native's second-place finish ties for the best NCAA outdoor high jump finish ever at Minnesota with Staffan Strand (1999 and 1997) and Tim Heikkila (1971) while his mark ties Stand and Matt Fisher for sixth all-time at Minnesota. Only Strand, the school record holder at 2.31 meters (7-07 ft.) among three other top jumps for the Maroon & Gold, and Mike Vukovich have jumped higher for the Gophers.
Making his first career appearance at the NCAA outdoor championships, Howard finished ninth in the discus competition with a throw of 58.60 meters (192-03 ft.).
Howard earned his first career All-America honor with the showing while the performance made the Ames, Iowa native the first Gophers All-American discus thrower since Karl Erickson finished fourth in 2006.
The Gophers have now listed All-Americans in all four events in which they have completed competition with Ellenson and Howard joining Zach Siegmeier (fifth in the pole vault, 5.50 meters) and Jon Lehman (10th in the hammer, 64.27 meters). Minnesota closes out the 2014 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships on Saturday with John Simons competing in the men's 1,500 meter finals (4:18 p.m. CT).

Expert witnesses are fairly common commodities for professions such medicine, construction, banking, IT, and hundreds of others. A Google search for "expert witness" turns up hundreds of pages. Most listings are brokers seeking paid registrations from experts on the one end and customers, usually law firms, on the other. The broker then matches the laws firm's need with the expertise obtainable.
Amongst the many hundreds of brokers and expertise specialties available, almost nowhere will you find an expert witness in purchasing. This reality is another reflection of the reality of our profession. Although purchasing is the most efficient generator of profitability in all of business, it lacks the high profile luster of sales, marketing, and finance, to name but a few.
The American Purchasing Society is the best source on the web to find the most highly qualified experts in the profession. One broker recently found and hired me through the Society. His law firm client needed me to examine the discovery documents, write a report and testify on purchasing practice, ethics, UCC obligations of buyer and seller, freight terms, and related supply chain matters.
Law firms expect experts to have earned professional designations such as Certified Purchasing Professional (CPP), Certified Professional Purchasing Consultant (CPPC), and Certified Professional Purchasing Manager (CPPM). The ability and history of testifying, an understanding of the mechanics of legal process and law suits, experience in arbitration or other Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) are all helpful. Some law firms will prepare and train witnesses in testimony etiquette using video taped mock depositions.
They also need the expert's Curriculum Vitae (CV), a summary of academic and professional history and achievements. Here is what I list for areas of Expertise on mine.
- Purchasing
- Purchasing Policies and Procedures
- Green Purchasing
- Negotiation
- Supply Chain Management
- Professional Practice in Purchasing
Your brief bio should include publications in which you have been cited, your published works, related experience, and other useful skills. Mine has the following: Veteran business pro, Certified Purchasing Professional (CPP) and Certified Professional Purchasing Consultant (CPPC) providing training and consulting in purchasing and negotiation for public and private clients, extensive foreign trade credentials, Author of "You're the Buyer – You Negotiate It" and "Green Purchasing and Sustainability", foreign language fluency in French and Italian, strategic partner to the American Purchasing Society, member National Speakers Association.

Brewing coffee at home is an excellent way to save money and cut down on your carbon footprint.
Some problems of going out for coffee include…
- Insane prices: $2-$5+ for a cup of coffee (yikes).
- Gas use: You need to drive to get coffee out (unless you walk).
- Time use: You'll have to waste time getting to the coffee shop.
- Lack of choices: Want Fair trade, organic or vegan milk for your coffee? You may get it at your local coffee shop, but you also may not. It can depend on where you go, plus, even if you find your ideal coffee choices, they'll be marked up in price.
- Waste issues: If you frequent go-to coffee shops, hopefully you take along a reusable mug. However, even the best of us forget our mugs at time, meaning we have to take a disposable cup.
It's easy and less expensive to brew your coffee at home – but your coffee maker matters…
Coffee makers at home can add up when it comes to household electricity consumption. The 2005 Energy Information Administration's Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS) estimated that coffee makers may account for 0.5% of residential electricity consumption. One European study showed that coffee machines may account for as much as 4% of the electricity consumption of households, but that depended on the device and usage.
With the above in mind, if you're looking to keep your home-brewing more efficient and eco-friendly, you should first choose a decent coffee maker. Coffee makers are not officially labeled by Energy Star yet, but Energy Star does have a report available that discusses features of a good coffee maker. Some of their tips include:
- Don't leave the coffee pot warming plate on for long periods. Ideally get a model that turns off automatically or one with a timer you can set. Energy Star notes that coffee makers with an auto-power down feature, "After 60 minutes and 30 minutes following brewing completion has the potential for 14% and nearly 23% energy savings, respectively."
- Single-serve and espresso machines consume the greatest amount of electricity according to the report, due to their ability to maintain water temperature in ready-to-use mode. That said, consider a boring ol' regular coffee maker instead.
- Get a coffee maker with a double-wall insulated, stainless steel carafe, which keeps your coffee steamy hot without a warming plate at all. This is the sort of coffee pot I have and it works really well, keeping my coffee hot for hours after the maker turns off and I unplug it.
The Energy Star report notes that if just 25% of folks replaced their less efficient coffee makers with more efficient models, the national annual energy savings would be about 124,000 MWh – that's a figure that would reduce annual CO2 emissions by approximately 190 million lbs. Pretty significant for a little ol' coffee maker.
Other eco-friendly home brewing tips:
Buy the best coffee maker you can afford – especially if you use it a lot. Tossing a broken coffee maker is very wasteful. When you are done with your coffee maker or it dies, recycle it. You can find a place to recycle even dead pots at Earth 911. If there's no recycling center near you, contact Seattle Coffee Gear because you may be able to ship your coffee maker to them and they'll recycle it.
Unplug your coffee maker when it's not in use.
Always use a reusable coffee filter. They're cheap, last forever and save a ton of paper. I've had two reusable coffee filters over the last 15 years or so and I make about 2 pots of coffee a day. Can you imagine if I was using paper filters? That would be a HUGE pile of paper and cardboard.
If you can swing it, buy organic, Fair Trade coffee. I know it's more expensive but one thing you can do to cut down on price is to ask for coffee as a gift. I usually get coffee for all the holidays because I make sure people know it's the one thing I LOVE. If you can't always afford organic, be sure to buy as much coffee as you can at once, to cut down on packaging OR purchase beans in bulk, using a small reusable produce bag.
Get OCD about water use – meaning, don't set your coffee pot under the faucet, then walk away.

It is earlier this year, so make sure you compare plans and make a decision before the enrollment period expires. If you are looking for a Prescription Drug Plan, Humana could be right for you.
Humana offers prescription drug programs, known as PDP, that are stand alone policies. They are to designed to let you add cover to your Medicare Coverage. You could also add it to your Medicare Supplement Plan. A variety of plans exist when you explore the official site www.humanasavings.com. The different PDP plans are offered with different premiums. Therefore, you should be able to find a monthly premium that works with your particular budget. If you choose not to enroll online, you can use their toll free number to learn more about available programs and to enroll seven days a week. The hours are from 8 am to 8 pm. A medicare part d plan, could provide you the security and savings you need if you have health issues that are not covered by original medicare.
Humana is a company that is a trusted source for quality insurance products and reliable information. I feel confident that this is the right program for my parents who are senior citizens. They have worked hard to get to this point in their life and they deserve protection and security. Help the senior citizens in your life feel the sense of security that Medicare Part D and Prescription Drug Plans can offer. Humana Medicare at www.humanasavings.com is an easy to use site that provides a means by which to enroll online. It's simple and expeditious. Knowing your prescriptions will help make the process progress more smoothly. So gather those up before entering your zip code. But if you don't have them handy, you can just skip to the available plans in your area.
In my area, the HumanaChoice PPO, the Humana Gold Choice PFFS, and the Humana Gold Plus HMO are all options. Many are surprised to learn that some programs don't cost a thing. I was one of them. My parents were interested in Humana Gold Plus and in their area they were able to get it for free. You might be eligible too. See the details on Humana's all plans page now. Don't get caught without a plan. If you don't choose Humana, choose one you like anyway. It is a solid investment in your well being.

Wi-Fi Booster
Here's my latest 5 minute Wi-Fi booster hardware project.
I had some aluminum flashing laying around in the garage, and I had read about the beer can wi-fi booster and it seemed like a piece of the flashing could do the same thing and would be an even larger reflective surface than the beer can. Thus was born:
All I had to do was cut off a piece of the flashing (it is thin enough that ordinary scissors work) and flatten it a bit. It is curved enough to stand on its own on the shelf next to the access point/router.
The router is on one side of the house and everything that wants wireless is on the other, so the reflector is pointing toward the other side of the house, and the results are quite astounding. I get a signal that is almost twice as strong as I used to get over on the other side of the house. With a 802.11n connection I've transferred a 3.5 GB iso image in 3 minutes and a few seconds. That always took far longer before the reflector.

A former television news anchor is joining the senior administration team at Iolani School.
Kim Gennaula will be the school's new executive director of advancement starting this fall, school officials announced Monday. She will head all fundraising, alumni and parent relations programs, and campaign and stewardship initiatives.
"The appointment is the culmination of a focused search to carefully select a final candidate with a deep understanding of Hawaii's unique culture and Iolani's vision for the future," Head of School Timothy Cottrell said in the announcement. "Kim's decision to join Iolani was largely based on her desire to be closer to her family while also building upon the good work that her children's school continues to do for the community," Head of School Timothy Cottrell said in the announcement."
Gennaula currently serves as president and CEO of Aloha United Way, and was previously philanthropy director at Kapiolani Medical Center for Women and Children.

I got armbarred in pretty short order, which I think I could have avoided, but was waiting for the ref to stand us back up.
We started off working for grips, and I felt great... He didn't feel particularly strong, or fast, or crafty. He left his lead leg wide open for a pick/tap or kata guruma, so I shot in for it, and he spun around to avoid falling. With him out-of-place, I bellied out, and was waiting for the ref to stand it up. He then began to dig for an arm, which took him some time, and peeled me over for an armbar. I defended it for quite some time... At least 30 seconds, if not longer, and he was not able to extend the arm. I continued to wait, as I did not feel in trouble, and I figured the newaza clock had to be getting close. He eventually extended the arm and got the tap.
I should have just actively defended the lock, but it is usually the case that it would have been stopped when I bellied out, or after he was not able to extend the arm for so long. Next time I know not to rely on the ref. Lesson learned.
