It's been over three years since I mused about a rare flat decade in U.S. stocks.
Since then, millions of Baby Boomers have retired, and…. stocks are up 50%…
Apparently, demographic realignments are no still match for the dynamism of the modern American corporate machine and its ability to turn invested dollars into innovative dividends. My pessimistic musings based on ten years of evidence are looking increasingly naive compared to the roaring hundred-year-based optimisms of Mr. Money Moustache and jlcollinsnh. Maybe this time, it's… not different?
The unemployment rate has been dropping. Pundits like to point to the labor-participation rate or the employment-participation rate and argue about how much can be blamed on retiring Baby Boomers and how much it matters. There seems to be a significant chunk of people quietly hiding under the rug of Social Security disability (if you haven't seen the excellent This American Life podcast). The less well-known fund is set to run dry at the end of 2016, leading to all sorts of interesting political game theory.
Some people seem to assume that falling employment rates are a problem. The labor participation rate is the lowest SINCE 1977!! With every drop, the year goes back and sounds more ominous. Yet every time, I think, well how did the country survive 1977 anyway? We went through several decades with a lower proportion of people employed than today.
What changed between then and now? Participation rates went up as lots of women started working and now goes down as Baby Boomers retire while living longer. So we've essentially traded a world where men worked to support their wives for a world where men and women both work to support their grandparents. The biggest difference, of course, is that the support is channeled through the government at mismatched levels, essentially relying on foreign investors to give those grandparents better support.
Some seem to see the downfall of America and its self-sufficient legacy in the growing numbers of non-workers. If we include children under 16, surely the number of productively employed people supporting the rest of the country is less than 50%. Yet there does not seem to be any fundamental problem with that proportion. We used to do it all the time, and we were far less productive then.

VOLUME 3 DUE FOR PUBLICATION IN MARCH 2013The Papers of Francis Bernard, Governor of Colonial Massachusetts, 1760-69: Volume 3 (1766-67). Edited
by Colin Nicolson. 6 vols. Boston: The Colonial Society of
Massachusetts; distributed by the Univ. of Virginia Press, 2013. ISBN 978-0-9852543-1-5.As governor of colonial Massachusetts between
1760 and 1769, Francis Bernard's main task was to shore up British imperialism during
the first period of sustained American opposition to the authority of the
King-in-Parliament. The documentary record of the middle years (1766 and 1767)
of Bernard's troubled administration reveals a governor at odds with his American
charges and discomfited by the knowledge that his British masters did not appreciate his predicament.That he succeeded in persuading ministers of the
weakness of imperial power had enormous ramifications for British-colonial
In Bernard's correspondence of 1766 and 1767
historians will find explanations about two major causes of the Revolution. The
first is why British policymakers were prepared to take a firmer line with the
Americans and send British Regulars to Boston in 1768. The second is why many
Americans convinced themselves that the British government was predisposed to
ignore their aspirations and grievances. The
Bernard Papers assists historians in negotiating these processes, whilst
providing hard evidence of how British imperialism was itself negotiable in the
decade before the War of Independence.
Volume 2, published 2012, details American opposition to the British Stamp Act during 1764 and 1765. It can be purchased from online stores or ordered direct from the distributors the University Press of Virginia, P.O. Box 400318, Charlottesville, VA 22904-4318, 1-800-831-3406, email@example.com.
The Papers of Francis Bernard, Governor of Colonial Massachusetts, 1760-69: Volume 2 (1764-65). Edited by Colin Nicolson. 6 vols. Boston: The Colonial Society of Massachusetts; distributed by the Univ. of Virginia Press, 2012. ISBN-13: 978-0979466298
. . . The Stamp Act controversy was the beginning of a ten-year contest which radicalized the American colonists, leading them to question and then to challenge imperial authority. This is the process that we may label the Imperial Crisis, for at its zenith in 1775, it brought forth a revolutionary movement. An essential ingredient in that transformation, which has often been ignored, was the role of British imperial officials like Francis Bernard in alienating the colonists. Most other governors crumbled in the face of overwhelming resistance to the Stamp Act, but Bernard did not retreat gracefully, and fought and berated the colonial radicals most every step of the way. Bernard's story is worth retelling, not only for its own sake but for it what it reveals about the lives and times of Britons and Americans caught up in one of History's true turning points . . .

In today's Seattle P-I, my colleague Dan Raley wrote a moving obituary on former Huskies defensive back Dick Sprague, who died earlier this week.
Some other Huskies-related links to get you through the weekend:
* Scout.com recently posted some "fun statistics" from the 2007 Pac-10 season. Not really sure what's fun about the Huskies' stats other than maybe laughing at the other team making penalties. 😉
* CBS SportsLine's Matt Hayes ranks the five most overrated teams. No, no, no… the Huskies aren't in there. Obviously. But one of the Huskies' foes is.
* Unrelated to the Huskies, but possibly of intererst due to the search for a new athletic director, Notre Dame's Kevin White is leaving South Bend to take the post at Duke.

Mom's Night Inn, A Weekend of Connecting
When Andrea Marwah asked me to speak at the Illinois Hands & Voices Mom's Night Inn this year, I happily agreed. The Mom's Night Inn weekend was like coming home all over again. When I founded the non-profit organization back in 2003, we launched the annual Mom's Night Inn, modeled after a similar retreat at Colorado Hands & Voices. Every year, the retreat continues to be a weekend of connection among the moms of deaf and hard of hearing children. Andrea Marwah, the current president, has expanded the Mom's Night Inn in central Illinois as well. There is still time to register for that: Mom's Night Inn Central.
This year's theme was "Celebrating Their Gifts, Unleashing Your Child's Potential" and the title of my presentation. I shared my own journey of growing up hard of hearing, becoming deaf, and discovering the gifts that resulted from a paradigm shift in my perceptions. I read an excerpt from Lee Woodruff's book, "Perfectly Imperfect," where she describes her deaf daughter as one with a different ability. If you have not read her book, grab it. Lee is an amazing writer and her book will grip your heart. She has a new one coming out in September, 2012.
Massages, crafts, discussions and chocolate, those are some of things the moms get to experience during the retreat. Woven into those moments are the connections– the experience of sharing your personal journey with another mom. It doesn't matter where you are on the journey, or the choices you've made or the choices you are exploring– there's the common bond of raising deaf and hard of hearing kids. It's a wonderful feeling to share the journey together.
On Sunday, we had a panel of deaf and hard of hearing kids, from elementary to college age. Ben Lachman also sat on the panel and shared his experience as a young adult and businessman. Their experiences were as unique as their fingerprints. As I sat there and watched each person share a glimpse of their journey, I'm reminded once again why so many of us across the Hands & Voices world volunteer our time with families: because every kid counts.

Jefferson sets record
Amie Jefferson is just a sophomore but the 5-foot-9 forward from Albany (Colonie High) already holds the career blocks record for the Sage College women's basketball team.
Jefferson had two blocks in a 47-41 victory over Bard last Friday in Albany. She now has a two-year total of 66 to break the old mark (65) set by Kelly Murphy (1999-2002). She leads the Gators in blocked shots (14) and assists (32) and is second in scoring (8.1) and rebounding (6.2).
Sage opened the season 0-5, but has won four straight thanks to the play of Jefferson, sophomore Megan Bowman of Saranac, sophomore Lea McClain of Schenectady (Mohonasen High), senior Carly Vallee of East Greenbush (Catholic High), junior Erica Houle of Latham (Shaker High) and freshman Sara Tironi of Cambridge (Cambridge High).
Bowman leads the balanced squad in scoring (8.6) and gets help from Jefferson, McClain (7.8), Tironi (7.4), Valley (5.8) and Houle (5.2). Tironi was named Skyline Conference Rookie of the Week after three double-figure games, including a double-double of 13 points and 14 rebounds in a victory over Elmira.
Records for Degnan
The Cobleskill women's swim team was beaten 183-88 by Cazenovia last Saturday but the Fighting Tigers got a great effort from freshman Rachael Degnan.
Degnan, from Guilderland (Guilderland High), set program records in the 400-yard individual medley (5 minutes, 11.1 seconds) and the 1,650 freestyle (20:04.08). She won the 400 IM and finished second in the 1,650. She also won the 200 butterfly (2:46.37).
Degnan captured the 500 free (6:02.77) and the 1,000 free (12:06.43) and finished second in the 100 butterfly (1:05.97) to help the Fighting Tigers in a meet against Gallaudet and Wells a week earlier. And she was named North Eastern Athletic Conference Female Swimmer of the Week (Oct. 28) after winning the 100 fly, 200 IM and the 1,000 freestyle in a 145-63 season-opening victory over Bard.
Reyes leads the way
The Hudson Valley men's basketball team is off to an 8-4 start and freshman Jose Reyes of Clifton Park (Shenendehowa) is doing a standout job for the Vikings.
Reyes, a 5-9 guard, is averaging a team-high 16.2 points and has 51 assists, 30 rebounds and 26 steals. He had 24 points in an 82-80 victory over Dutchess CC and 21 points in a 71-40 triumph over Jefferson CC.
Sophomore Jeremy Taylor of Catskill (Catskill High) is averaging 9.7 points and 6.4 rebounds and had 18 points in the Jefferson victory. Others helping the Vikings as starters or off the bench are sophomore Jeffrey Kruzinski of Schenectady (Mohonasen) and freshmen Giacomo Giglio of Glenmont (Catholic High), Nate Krimsky of Berne (Berne-Knox-Westerlo) and Nate Monson of Cohoes (Cohoes High).
Honors for Madden
Union senior Shayla Madden of Niskayuna (Colonie High) was named to the All-Tournament team and the Liberty League honor roll for her efforts in the recent St. John Fisher Tournament in Rochester. She scored 26 points in the two games, Union losing 67-55 to the host team in the title game.
The 5-6 guard and co-captain is averaging 12.1 points per game and has hit 13 of 40 from 3-point range. She's also averaging 5.0 rebounds and has 16 assists and nine steals.
Union is 5-3 overall and 2-0 in the Liberty after a big 63-51 league victory over William Smith last Saturday. Madden led the way with a game-high 18 points and nine rebounds.
The Dutchwomen play host to Utica in a nonleague game Tuesday in Schenectady.
Keefe helps RPI
Junior Nick Keefe of Rensselaer (Columbia High) has seen action in all eight games off the bench for the 5-3 RPI men's basketball team.
Keefe is averaging 7.3 points and 3.0 rebounds and has eight steals, five assists and three blocks. He had 12 points in a 105-75 victory over St. Joseph's (Vt.) and 10 points in a 92-87 triumph over Mass Liberal Arts to help the Engineers capture the Tri-State Shootout recently in Troy.
RPI returns to action on Saturday, Dec. 30, at Middlebury in Middlebury, Vt.
Sullivan is solid
Sophomore Taylor Sullivan is having a steady season with the Albany Pharmacy women's basketball team.
The 5-9 guard from Troy (Hoosic Valley) is averaging 9.0 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.4 assists a game for the 7-1 Panthers. She scored 14 points in a 69-64 victory over SUNYIT, 13 points in a 55-44 triumph over SUNY-Canton and six points and a season-high 15 rebounds, five assists and two steals in a 47-34 victory over Alfred.

Brauer rules pool for Saint Rose
Caitlin Brauer had a big weekend in the pool for the College of Saint Rose women's swim team.
Brauer, from Clifton Park (Shenendehowa), took three firsts and a second at the four-team Pace University Invitational last Friday and Saturday in Pleasantville.
The senior captured the 500 freestyle (5 minutes, 16.94 seconds), the 1,650 free (18:20.63) and the 400 individual medley (4:42.64). She finished second in the 200 IM (2:14.69).

Brown's on a roll
Steven Brown, a 6-foot-8 center from Watervliet (Shaker High), had 20 points and 17 rebounds in Albany Pharmacy's 85-82 victory over Green Mountain and 19 points, 13 rebounds and five blocks in a 79-69 triumph over SUNY-Adirondack. On the season, Brown is averaging 13.7 points and 10.5 rebounds a game. The rebounding figure is third best in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association. He also has a team-high 17 blocks.
Trio helping RPI
The RPI women's basketball team is off to a 5-2 start and three area players are seeing plenty of minutes with the Engineers. They are juniors Zysnia Osepa of Melrose (Tamarac), Kelly Piotrowski of Schenectady (Schalmont) and sophomore Bailei Tetrault of Cohoes (Cohoes High). Piotrowski (5.4 ppg and 3.4 rpg) and Tetrault (6.4 ppg and 3.4 rpg) are starters while Osepa (4.3 ppg, eight assists and eight steals), comes off the bench. Osepa had 10 points in a 66-53 victory over Bates in the consolation game of the Williams Tournament last Saturday in Williamstown, Mass. RPI sophomore Amanda Lynch of Middletown had 12 points and was named to the all-tournament team.
Frasier seeing double
The Hudson Valley women's basketball team has played eight games and sophomore Rashelle Frasier has had double-doubles in all of them.
Frasier, a 5-10 forward from Schenectady (Schenectady High), is averaging 17.8 points and 15.5 rebounds for the 2-6 Vikings. She had 25 points in a 77-60 loss to Finger Lakes CC and then came back with two big games — 23 points and a career-high 26 rebounds in a 60-41 victory over North Country and 23 points and 20 rebounds in a 59-53 loss to Cayuga CC.
Frasier was named Region III Player of the Week for her efforts against North Country and Cayuga.
Engineers finish second
The RPI men's and women's swim teams both finished behind Rochester in the Liberty League Swimming Championships last Saturday in Rochester. Helping the Engineers men were freshman David Connor of Troy (Tamarac High), freshman David Gardiner of Malta (Ballston Spa) and sophomore Adam Kalish of Clifton Park (Shenendehowa). Connor finished third in the 200 breaststroke (2:15.46) and seventh in the 100 breaststroke (1:02.04). Gardiner finished third in the 200 backstroke (2:01.61), fifth in the 100 backstroke (55.44) and eighth in the 200 IM (2:02.76).

Use this procedure to change the private hostname of a non-voting node after installation has been completed.
Private host names are assigned during initial cluster installation. The private hostname takes the form clusternode< nodeid>-priv, for example: clusternode3-priv . Change a private hostname only if the name is already in use in the domain.
Do not attempt to assign IP addresses to new private hostnames. The clustering software assigns them.
The phys-schost# prompt reflects a global-cluster prompt. Perform this procedure on a global cluster.
This procedure provides the long forms of the Sun Cluster commands. Most commands also have short forms. Except for the long and short forms of the command names, the commands are identical. For a list of the commands and their short forms, see Appendix B, Sun Cluster Object-Oriented Commands.
On all nodes in the global cluster, disable any data service resources or other applications that might cache private host names.
phys-schost# clresource disable resource1, resource2
Include the following in the applications you disable.
HA-DNS and HA-NFS services, if configured
Any application that has been custom-configured to use the private hostname
Any application that is being used by clients over the private interconnect
For information about using the clresource command, see the clresource(1CL) man page and the Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS.
Run the clsetup(1CL) utility to change the private hostname of the appropriate non-voting node on the global cluster.
phys-schost# clsetup
You need to perform this step only from one of the nodes in the cluster.
When selecting a new private hostname, ensure that the name is unique to the cluster.
Type the number that corresponds to the option for private hostnames and press the Return key.
Type the number that corresponds to the option for adding a zone private hostname and press the Return key.
No default exists for a non-voting node of a global cluster's private hostname. You need to provide a hostname.
Type the number that corresponds to the option for changing a zone private hostname.
Answer the questions when prompted. You are asked for the name of the non-voting node whose private hostname is being changed (clusternode< nodeid>-priv), and the new private hostname.
Flush the name service cache.
Perform this step on each node in the cluster. Flushing prevents the cluster applications and data services from trying to access the old private hostname.
phys-schost# nscd -i hosts
Enable all data service resources and other applications that were disabled in Step 1.

A crocheted wedding dress for Barbie!
On a whim I joined a knit or crochet "along" on Ravelry. The theme is "Barbie wedding" and the idea is to start in May, but true to form I never waited for the official start. Truth is I've never been much for group participation like that and I always end up doing my own thing. I already had the pattern and the 10/2 tencel in my stash so I got started. It took longer than I expected, but less than a week.
I love the little details, all the way from a beaded and beribboned headdress with pale pink veil down to a tulle crinoline and cute little beaded garter. Great fun. I may have to do this again some day.
It's a bit too delicate for my 3 year old granddaughter, Kaylen, right now so I think I'll get a doll stand and put it on display in my craft room until she and her little sister are old enough to handle it with care.

Football loses another true legend...
The term 'football legend' is used way too often these days, I, and many others, have said this time and time again over the years - however England, Europe and the world has today lost one of the true great characters, personalities and legend of the game with the sad news that Sir Bobby Robson has passed away at the age of 76 after finally losing a long battle with cancer.
Sir Bobby was 'what I knew about England' as a youngster growing up, he was the England manager when my interest in football really look off and despite often appearing confused, something that caused no end of amusement to the viewing public, the guy was as sharp as they came and knew football, the world over, inside out!
You only have to look at Newcastle now, is it any coincidence that their decline started after they parted company with the man?
A true footballing legend in every sense, successful wherever he had been throughout Europe - he did the business in Portugal, Holland and Spain after he had done this in England before taking on the top job.
It was a really emotional night a couple of years back when he received his award at the sports personality of the year - you could see his own emotion, as you could everyone else's in the arena that night. In typical Sir Bobby fashion he rambled on, but everyone was drawn to everything that he said.
When Pompey won the FA cup, it was Sir Bobby that was the guest of honour that day - then, as had been the case for so long before hand, he looked old an frail yet he still performed his duties and you could see the respect he commanded from everyone.
One of my all time great memories of any football, well to be fair a lot of them came from world cup Italia 90 where we made the semi finals before the now regular penalty shootout exit, was the one where the then England manager was caught on camera doing a little jig on the sidelines - fantastic stuff!
Sir Bobby had always been a fighter, he never gave in, but finally he has lost his final battle. Thankfully though it is said that he passed away peacefully - anyone that loves football must have loved Sir Bobby, he will be sadly missed but never forgotten. Our thoughts are with his family, maybe he rest in piece...
RIP Sir Bobby, a man fitting of the title.

* Banks register with National Futures Association
* Royal Dutch Shell, other big energy traders don't register
* Firms will register as they hit $8 bln threshold
By Douwe Miedema
WASHINGTON, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Asian and European banks registered as U.S. swap dealers this week, joining Wall Street rivals in complying with new rules that aim to shed light on the opaque $650 trillion derivatives market.
Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank, Societe Generale, BNP Paribas and Nomura were among the swap dealers listed in the registry of the National Futures Association (NFA), a U.S. regulator.
But large energy traders such as Royal Dutch Shell, Cargill and Glencore were conspicuously absent from the list, a sign of how the market is dominated by investment banks that largely serve speculators.
In 2009, the world's largest countries agreed to clamp down on the unregulated swaps market, which has been blamed as a major contributor to the global financial crisis.
Regulators such as the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission are setting tighter standards for trading and data reporting, among a host of other measures.
Swaps can be used to protect against the financial effects of a change in interest rates, currency rates, the risk of default, or commodity or energy prices, but are now largely used purely for financial gains, or speculation.
A small group of companies that use swaps for genuine hedging purposes of physical assets such as commodities, or use them to hedge financial liabilities in their daily business practice, is exempt from the CFTC's rules.
But any other trader hitting a volume of more than $8 billion in swaps in the past 12 months needed to register as of Dec. 31, according to the CFTC's rules.
"The public ... will benefit as swap dealers now will be subject to common-sense standards ... that will help lower risk to the rest of the economy," CFTC chairman Gary Gensler said in a press release.
Energy traders may join the list once they meet the $8 billion threshold, or not at all if they don't trade swaps in sufficient quantity. A spokeswoman for Shell, for instance, said the company would register if and when it hit the $8 billion mark.
Energy traders' swaps dealing business is often largely done on behalf of clients, making them direct competitors to the largest investment banks.
JPMorgan, Citibank, Bank of America and Goldman Sachs are the U.S. banks among the more than 60 names mentioned in the NFA's registry.
The list marks the first line-up of swaps dealers active in the United States, even if the names of the domestic banks were roughly known through data from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, another regulator.
The number of dealers is set to grow in the coming months, as more will meet the $8 billion threshold, with each last day of the month marking a deadline.
Swaps are currently traded in bilateral deals over the phone, but that will need to change under new global rules, such as the U.S. Dodd-Frank overhaul of Wall Street.
Trading will need to take place on regulated platforms - similar to stock exchanges - and clearing houses will stand in between buyers and sellers to mitigate the risk of counterparty default and prevent market crashes.
Registration is a first deadline to be met in the Dodd-Frank rule-writing, which is done in large part by the CFTC - whose powers have been vastly expanded to include swaps oversight - and by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Real-time reporting of swap dealing also started at the beginning of the new year, the CFTC said, and data would become publicly available through data warehouses.
The NFA, which has been made responsible for registration by the CFTC, said it had been working overtime to meet the deadline, expanding its staff in the past two years and responding to thousands of queries from registrants.

Sony Developing 3D Screen-Sharing Technology For Two Players 174
Stoobalou writes "Sony has recently published patent applications which will allow two-player 3D gaming on a single screen. The new technology could spell an end to split-screen gaming, but is unlikely to see the light of day for a few years at least. Sony's method would allow player one to see frames one and three whilst player two would see frames two and four. Current technology requires a display with a 120 Hz refresh rate so it seems likely that we'll have to wait for 240Hz screen technology to become commonplace before two-player 3D becomes a reality. PDF versions of the two applications are available."

Hello everyone,
I am a college freshman and I will be going to belize this august. I am going with friends and family for the first half, presumably near Caye Caulker, but the second half (wich works out to be about 6 days) I will have to myself (everyone else is leaving early).
Here is my question:
What is something FUN, ADVENTUROUS and AWESOME that I can do in that time? I am fine with just about anything. I LOVE nature, I will probably be scuba diving the first week of the trip, and I really like the idea of backpacking. Money isn't a limitation, but the cheaper the better.
I wouldn't mind going off the beaten path either.

Previous research in behavioural and cognitive neuroscience demonstrates a close link between the brain systems for language, action and perception.
Previous research in behavioural and cognitive neuroscience demonstrates a close link between the brain systems for language, action and perception. These parallel developments in behavioural and computational neuroscience, as well as in cognitive robotics and in neuromorphic engineering constitute a timely opportunity to synergistically integrate the interdisciplinary methods and approaches from these fields with the aim of furthering the scientific and technological progress in language processing in natural and artificial cognitive systems. The project proposes the interdisciplinary integration of new brain imaging experiments, of neuro-anatomical computational and neuromorphic studies, and of humanoid robotics experiments in order to characterise the brain mechanisms supporting language learning in an embodied and pragmatic (situated) context, and to design and test novel brain-inspired neural technologies for action and language learning experiments with interactive intelligent systems such as humanoid robots. This integrative approach is supported by the establishment of a highly interdisciplinary project team with an international track record in behavioural neuroscience of language (Pulvermüller), computational neuroscience (Wennekers, Garagnani), neuromorphic engineering (Furber) and cognitive and neuro-robotics (Cangelosi).

With 4 minutes and 22 seconds elapsed in the second period of the Capitals' 5-2 loss to Dallas on Tuesday night, defenseman John Erskine was given a two-minute minor penalty for boarding.
Erskine, who happened to be playing in his 400th career NHL game, received the penalty after he checked Stars defenseman Trevor Daley into the end boards behind the Washington net.
Daley appeared to fall just as Erskine hit him and the Dallas defenseman's head appeared to take the brunt of the initial contact, which is a benchmark for hits that receive supplementary discipline from the NHL. Daley was slow to get up but ultimately finished the game.
At this point, it's uncertain if Erskine will face any punishment from the league or have a disciplinary hearing with Brendan Shanahan, the league's Vice President of player safety. Erskine said that he didn't intend to injure Daley on the play.
"I went to go hit him," Erskine said, adding that he hadn't seen a replay of the hit. "I went to go hit him, I know the guy so I wasn't going in intending to do a head shot or anything. It was accidental, we'll see what happens."

LONDON -- British police said Thursday they were searching for the husband of a woman whose dismembered corpse was found in a kitchen freezer at the couple's home.
London's Metropolitan Police said the body of Korean-born Tae Hui Dalton, 36, was found late Tuesday, and they wanted to talk with her husband, Paul Dalton, 33.
Dalton's parents discovered the remains when they went to the home searching for him, said Detective Chief Inspector Nick Ephgrave.
"During the search they opened the chest freezer in the kitchen and found a series of packages. They looked and realized what they had discovered was a dismembered body.
"I can only speculate how that must have felt but it was clearly a very shocking event," Ephgrave said.

All the usual attention to detail that this author provides and a deeper more thought provoking story line has made this my favourite audiobook of the year.
"Should be on a Psychology reading list"
It was basically a story spun around Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Unfortunately the plot was weak and overall it wasn't very good.
I will listen to more by Gerald Seymour and put this down to a bad day at the typewriter.
Narrator was fine
"Not good."
Not one narrated John O'Mahoney.

Lately, I've been asked quite often by callers if it is "okay" to apologize to someone for a wrongdoing even years after the offense. I can understand why that question might be asked. It can feel a bit embarrassing to have to face someone and face up to what you've done. It is worrisome that they might not be gracious about your apology. It is possible that they might "lay into you." It may be that they say "You caused me so much grief and pain that I can't forgive you." They might not even be willing to talk to you. Or, they might say, with tears, "Thank you. That means a lot to me."
It IS a big risk to take. But the most valued things in life do come with a big risk attached. That's part of what gives them value.
You must remember, however, that whatever their response might be, you are doing the apology not to wipe the slate clean (damage is damage, and some never goes away), but because true repentance requires that you do what it takes to repair the damage. That includes the sincere…sincere…apology. None of that "if you were hurt, then I'm sorry" nonsense. That is pure annoyance!
So, if you truly have remorse (and are not just trying to manipulate someone into a situation which benefits you), then apologize…anytime…and tolerate their first and maybe second unpleasant reaction.
Seeds take time to germinate, and coping with an apology means the whole thing is brought up again in their minds. Be patient and understanding. While they may never forgive you, know that you still did the right thing.

CMU professor Steve Fienberg has a nice recent interview at Statistics Views.
He brings up great nuggets of stats history, including insights into the history and challenges of Big Data. I also want to read his recommended books, especially Fisher's Design of Experiments and Raiffa & Schlaifer'sApplied Statistical Decision Theory. But my favorite part was about involving intro stats students in data collection:
One of the things I've been able to do is teach a freshman seminar every once in a while. In 1990, I did it as a class in a very ad hoc way and then again in 2000, and again in 2010, I taught small freshman seminars on the census. Those were the census years, so I would bring real data into the classroom which we would discuss. One of the nice things about working on those seminars is that, because I personally knew many of the Census Directors, I was able to bring many of them to class as my guests. It was great fun and it really changes how students think about what they do. In 1990, we signed all students up as census enumerators and they did a shelter and homeless night and had to come back and describe their experiences and share them. That doesn't sound like it should belong in a stat class but I can take you around here at JSM and introduce you to people who were in those classes and they've become statisticians!
What a great teaching idea 🙂 It reminds me of discussions in an anthropology class I took, where we learned about participant observation and communities of practice. Instead of just standing in a lecture hall talking about statistics, we'd do well to expose students to real-life statistical work "in the field"—not just analysis, but data collection too. I still feel strongly that data collection/generation is the heart of statistics (while data analysis is just icing on the cake), and Steve's seminar is a great way to hammer that home.

Gigs and Recording in Italy - Fall 2017
I'll be heading to Italy again this Fall for to do some recording of flute with singer Bobby Soul in Genoa. Hopefully a few gigs with same. Then around September 28 for a countless hours improvisation jam session by the man who started it all Chris Boulet. Hopefully we will be including producer Ronan Chris Murphy for this one as he will be in the area teaching a seminar. It will also be Chris' birthday so this one should be extra fun. More info as it comes in. Meanwhile, if you are in the Austin area we are still doing our improv shows and jams Jazz OUTside at Kenny Dorham's Backyard every fourth Thursday of the month. I think September or October will the the last for this years series. weather permitting.

Rock Cats Announce 2013 Coaching Staff
November 29, 2012 - Eastern League (EL) - New Britain Rock Cats News Release
New Britain, CT- The New Britain Rock Cats Baseball Club, the Double-A Eastern League Affiliate of the Minnesota Twins, has announced its coaching staff for the 2013 season. Jeff Smith will return for his fourth season as manager at New Britain and Stu Cliburn will return for his 12th season as pitching coach of the Rock Cats. Former Rock Cats outfielder Chad Allen (1997-1998) was named the club's new hitting coach. This will be Allen's first season as a coach in the Twins' system.
Smith, 38, will begin his fourth season as field manager of the Rock Cats. Last season, he helped produce five players that spent time at New Britain before getting promoted to the Major Leagues and 13 players have reached Minnesota since he took over for the Rock Cats in 2010. The Rock Cats have been in the Eastern League Pennant race during the past two seasons, going 147-137 over that span. The Naples, Florida native was named the 15th manager in New Britain franchise history on October 21, 2009, becoming the first Rock Cats former player to return to the Hardware City to manage. Smith played for the Rock Cats between 1997 and 2002 and still holds the franchise record for RBI in a single game (7). This will be his 8th season as a manager in the Twins system. Smith played 9 years in the minor leagues in the Twins, Red Sox and Rangers organizations after getting drafted in the 20th round in 1995 out of Stetson University (FL).
Cliburn returns for his 12th season as Rock Cats Pitching Coach and his 5th straight year at New Britain. He served as pitching coach on John Russell and Stan Cliburn's staff between 1999-2005 before coaching in the International League at Triple-A Rochester from 2006-2008. Cliburn has helped develop many of the pitchers for the Minnesota Twins staff as well as Major League All-Stars. Stu pitched for the California Angels from 1984-1988 and was named Angels Rookie of the Year by the Baseball Writers Association of Southern California after going 9-3 with a 2.09 ERA in 1995.
Allen joins the Rock Cats for his first season as hitting coach after playing for the club in 1997 and 1998. This will also be Allen's first season as a coach in the Twins organization. The Duncanville, Texas native played parts of seven seasons in the Major Leagues with the Twins, Indians, Marlins and Rangers between 1999 and 2005. He was a big part of the Rock Cats Northern Division Championship Club in 1998 as New Britain's starting left-fielder.

Pizza Hut Sales Unexpectedly Fall (YUM)
Published 3:58 pm, Wednesday, July 16, 2014
Yum Brands reported Q2 earnings of $0.73 per share, on revenue of $3.2 billion in line with expectations.
Yum saw China comparable store sales up 15%, beating expectations for an 11.4% rise.
Pizza Hut comp sales were down 3%, missing expectations for 0.1% growth.
Taco Bell comp sales were up 2%, missing expectations for 3.6% growth.
"Yum! Brands is well on its way to delivering full-year EPS growth of at least 20%, with second-quarter EPS growth of 30%," CEO David Novak said in a press release. "Operating profit grew 188% in China driven by strong sales and margin performance. Just as important, I'm confident we are building momentum behind major initiatives around the world that will sustain double-digit EPS growth in 2015 and beyond."
Yum derives a large part of its revenue from China, so investors watch for clues on the health of the Chinese consumer.
We've heard some discouraging commentary from American retailers in recent weeks.
"I think the economy is still in a recovery," Jonathan Blum, chief public affairs officer for Yum told Business Insider. He pointed out that sales were positive at Taco Bell and less positive at Pizza Hut and reiterated that "the economy is still in a recovery mode."
The stock is down 3% after hours.

There are not many "peaceful" revolutions in the history of mankind, especially during the last decades of our modern history. Even if we think to join these two words — "revolution" and "peaceful" — it does sound a bit unusual.
This is the reason why I chose to write about this example of a totally atypical revolution, which happened recently in Iceland. In my opinion, the Icelandic Revolution is an example of the fact that a revolution doesn't have to be violent and bloody but peaceful and civilized and with a positive approach things can be changed in order to improve the status quo and to create a better standard of living.
There were also other movements also called "peaceful," as it is a new paradigm, but still…nothing like Iceland.
One of the characteristics that made this revolution so atypical is its duration. It all started in 2008, when the main bank of Iceland was nationalized, the currency of Iceland devalued and the stock market halted. The country was in bankruptcy. During 2008 – 2009 as a result of the citizen's protests and demonstrations, both the prime minster and the whole government resigned. New elections were held. In spite of these changes, Iceland remained in a bad economic situation.

Eddie Burns Learns To Love Doing It DIY
By Ted Hope
Michael Tully of HammerToNail has a really great interview with Edward Burns on his path from small to medium to sorta big and then back again. It's filled with the kind of insights that can only be offered by those that have been there — and are willing to be truly honest, with both themselves and us.
I remember when we were at Tribeca, and John Sloss, who I'm sure you know, has this new venture called FilmBuff, who is our distribution partner with this film. And he gave me an argument, but not so much for VOD. Maybe five years ago, I had this movie called Looking For Kitty. And the movie got one tiny, tiny distribution offer from THINKFilm. It was one of those no advance partnerships, and we had made the movie for a quarter of a million dollars. John said, "Look, you're gonna sell the movie for nothing and they're gonna own it, just so you can satisfy that part of your ego that wants the film to be released theatrically." He goes, "If you were to just go straight to DVD, you could make your money back. And maybe make some more money." At the time—this was maybe '04 or '05—my ego wouldn't allow me to do it. So, we sell the film to THINKFilm, get no money, we're supposed to have a partnership, and we've never seen a red cent from it. Years later, when we're presented with the same kind of offer for Purple Violets, now iTunes is up and the iTunes movie site is in their infancy. And we thought, "Look at how bands are delivering their music directly to their fans. Maybe there's a way for us to try and do that with the film." And we did. I don't have the numbers exactly right but I think it was like a nine-month exclusive window for iTunes. And we did surprisingly good business there.
Flash forward three years later to Nice Guy Johnny. Two different things happened. We knew what we could make at iTunes even if we didn't have the kind of "stars" and well-known faces that we had in Purple Violets, which certainly helped. So we said, "Let's just think the lowest possible number we can do on iTunes. If we're even gonna entertain theatrical, someone needs to beat that number." But we never even got there, because John then said to me, "Remember back to Looking For Kitty. This is the moment. We can sell your film for theatrical distribution, and you're gonna open up on four screens in New York and LA, like you did with Looking For Kitty, and we'll keep our fingers crossed that if this company has enough money to market the thing, we might make an impression, and you can expand to the next level of a platform release. If we do well there, maybe, maybe you can go on and expand fully." He said, "Or, you can release your film onto VOD and be in 46 million living rooms, in that moment when you're doing all of your press." I heard that, and I was like, maybe if I was a young guy and this was my first film, I don't know that I would be willing to forego theatrical, because you do fantasize about having your movie play in theaters. I don't want to say "I've been there, done that," but most times I've ended up disappointed with how the films were handled theatrically. As my producing partner says, "There's nothing special about a specialized film release." We just thought, we'll take our film and we'll do the most aggressive film festival tour we've ever done. And that'll satisfy the need to see it in theaters, sit in the back row with an audience, hear the laughter, and get the thrill of theatrical out of that. But financially, it just made absolutely no sense to try and sell the film to an audience theatrically. And those were all of the things that played into embracing this model.
THANK YOU EDDIE. There's a whole lot more of it on HammerToNail. Check it out.Tweet

Intuitives & teachings: Ram Dass, on dying consciously
Baba Ram Dass keeps weaving in & out of my life, ever since I found Be Here Now when I was at university, at a lecture/teaching in Eugene, Oregon in the years just before his stroke, and lately, as I've been around folks who are facing death & dying. His approach offers a place to build what's needed to face the end which we all can count on.
Here are thoughts from his blog:
My view has evolved to seeing death — the moment of death — as a ceremony. If people are sitting with you to help as you are going through this dying ceremony, help them to see you as the soul you truly are, not as your ego. If they identify you as your ego, during the last part of this ceremony they will cling to you and pull you back instead of facilitating your transformation.
Sadhana, either a specific practice or your overall spiritual transformation, begins with you as an ego and evolves into your being a soul, who you really are. The ego is identified with the incarnation, which stops at the moment of death.
The soul, on the other hand, has experienced many deaths. If you've done your sadhana fully, there will be no fear of death, and dying is just another moment.
If you are to die consciously, there's no time like the present to prepare. Here is a brief checklist of some of the ways to approach your own death:
• Live your life consciously and fully. Learn to identify with and be present in your soul, not your ego.
• Fill your heart with love. Turn your mind toward God, guru, Truth.
• Continue with all of your spiritual practices: meditation, mantra, kirtan, all forms of devotion.
• Be there for the death of your parents, loved ones, or beloved animals. Know that the presence of your loved ones will remain when you are quiet and bring them into your consciousness.
• Read about the deaths of great saints, lamas, and yogis like Ramana Maharshi.
• If there is pain at the time of death, try to remain as conscious as possible. Medication for pain offers some solace but dulls your awareness.
• To be peaceful at the time of your death, seek peace inside today.
Death is another moment. If you're not peaceful today, you probably won't be peaceful tomorrow. Sudden death is, in many ways, more difficult to work with spiritually than a gradual passing.
If we are aware that death can happen at any moment, we start to work on ourselves more constantly, paying attention to the moment-to-moment content of our minds. If you practice being here now, being fully in the moment during your life, if you are living in that space, then the moment of death is just another moment.
– Ram Dass, excerpt from Polishing the Mirror: How to Live from your Spiritual Heart.

The New York state regional Class AA girls' basketball game today between Albany High and Cicero-North Syracuse, scheduled to air on Time Warner digital (Ch. 1), did not go on the air until 28 seconds remained in the game.
"We experienced a transmission error that prevented the correct game from being shown," a Time Warner spokeswoman said. "We greatly apologize and will have the game on demand by Monday (1003) and plan to re-air it in full midweek on TWCS."
The spokeswoman said the time of the re-air will be determined Monday. Albany lost the game, 51-49.

1. What can I expect in the first session?
When you arrive, please let Emma or Rachel know that you have arrived and have a seat in our waiting room. Feel free to ask for your therapist by their first name - we're not all that formal around here. We have coffee, tea and water available for you when you arrive. On weekends and evenings, the elevators are locked and the security guard will send you up to see us.
At your appointment time, your therapist will greet you and invite you into a confidential consulting room. We have deliberately opened our office in a shared office setting to enhance your confidentiality - nobody will know if you're there to see a therapist, accountant or a lawyer!
In this first assessment session, your therapist will invite you to share your story and will want to learn more about your hopes for therapy, any symptoms you are currently experiencing as well as wanting to know more about your personal strengths and any stresses in your life. If you feel comfortable with your therapist and would like to proceed with more sessions, you and your therapist will then decide how often you will meet and what you will work on together. When you leave, you can let your therapist know if you would be more comfortable leaving through the side entrance so you do not have to walk through the waiting room on your way out.
2. Do you have weekend and evening appointments available?
Yes we do. Check our online appointment scheduler for times that work best for you.
3. What do you charge for therapy?
Our team of highly trained, and experienced psychologists has been carefully chosen to help you. And we will be direct here – if you want low-cost counselling, we are not your option. Our rates run between $200 and $240 for each 50-minute session depending on which therapist you choose. If you have questions about the fees or our therapists, please feel free to contact our clinic director at 604-259-0627. If you have an extended health plan through your work, please check to see if you can be reimbursed for part of the cost of your therapy sessions. Depending on the plan from that your employer has purchased from Blue Cross or Manulife (or similar insurers), you may receive $500-1000 towards the cost of your therapy. You may also claim your remaining session fees as a medical expense on your tax return.
4. I've tried therapy before and it wasn't helpful? Can you guarantee that it will work this time?
If you have tried therapy before, your therapist at Vancouver Anxiety and Stress Centre will look at what you will be able to do differently this time to increase your chances of success. Many therapists say that they do cognitive therapy - but do not follow the guidelines for treatment. A cognitive therapist should review your progress each week, teach you skills such as challenging your thoughts, assign practice exercises to be reviewed at the next session and ask you for feedback at the end of each session about whether the work you did together was helpful. Research has shown that structuring the session in this way ensures that you are most likely to benefit from the skills you will learn in session. While we can never guarantee success, if you work hard in between sessions, give your therapist feedback about what is and is not working, you will increase your chances of having a positive experience this time.
5. Do you treat children and teens?
Yes, we can accommodate a limited number of child & teen patients, but please phone us at 604-259-0627 to ensure that we match you with the right therapist. As a rule we recommend that you contact Dunbar Psychological Services where they have a comprehensive clinic offering both psychiatric and psychological services designed to meet the needs of pediatric patients.
6. Do you do medical-legal assessments?
No. As a rule we do not accept patients with ongoing ICBC or legal claims. The lengthy reports and needing to be available for court keeps us from what we really love doing - helping people overcome their anxiety. We don't like cancelling appointments to go to court or having to create a long waitlist because the medical legal paperwork is piling up. It's important work but not our thing. The good news is that this is Dr. Theo DeGagne's area of expertise and he would be happy to help you if you have a court date in your future.
7. How do I get started?
Please phone us at 604-259-0627 or click here to schedule an appointment today.

hatred and borderline insanity; how Linoge can stand to keep going through this I don't know, but it's nice to know what the nutcases are saying.
By the way, if you need any further reason to tell the UN to kiss our collective ass, here you go.
"As High Commissioner for Human Rights, I call for an immediate investigation," she said.
"Justice must be done for the victim. It's not just this individual case. It calls into question the delivery of justice in all situations like this."
You'll note that the High Commissioner, with no investigation at all, KNOWS who the 'victim' is...
And the Telegraph is properly following The Narrative:
Neighbourhood watch captain George Zimmerman, a white Hispanic, fatally shot 17-year-old Martin inside a gated community in the Florida town of Sanford on February 26.
The deceased is black, so HAVE to have that 'white' in there.
Ms Pillay expressed shock that Zimmerman was not arrested right away, and expressed concern about Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law, which allows the use of deadly force in situations where there is a belief of a threat.
Ms Pillay, he WAS arrested, you moron; it was decided at the time that there wasn't sufficient evidence to charge him with a crime(as if things like that matter to you).
If the previous isn't enough to damage your calm,
"The law should operate equally in respect of all violations. I will be awaiting an investigation and prosecution and trial and of course reparations for the victims concerned," Ms Pillay said.
Ah, the UN mindset: she's already decided Zimmerman should be tried and convicted. And him going to jail isn't enough, oh no, she wants REPARATIONS for the 'victims'...
Screw the UN, and screw you, Pillay.

Blue helmets make great aim points.
Is the UN still supporting child rape by their "Peacekeeper" forces?

Elizabeth Berkley is going to be a mom!
The actress – best known for "Saved by the Bell" and "Showgirls" – is expecting her first child with husband Greg Lauren, an artist and clothing designer.
"In life there are moments you cherish forever and this is one of them," the 39-year-old actress wrote on Twitter. "Greg and I are so excited to be expecting our 1st child this summer."
Adding, "We couldn't be more grateful and overjoyed… My heart is full."
The couple wed in 2003 in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
