What coaching a new driver and developing an analytics culture have in common
By Kimberly Nevala, Best Practices, SAS
Big data has created a renewed interest and focus on analytics. But the best analytic tools are moot if they sit idle or are applied in a way that does not improve business outcomes. Companies struggling to bring analytics from the backroom to the board room must take a broader view.
What has become apparent is that analytic prowess is as much, if not more, a function of mindset and approach as access to tools and data. Very often, visionaries and experienced experts underestimate the effort, time and perseverance required to help others make the turn. I was reminded of the fundamental sticking point during a recent inaugural foray into the realm of driving instruction.
My 15-year-old niece asked me to take her driving. After observing my ride-along with her recently licensed sister, she determined I had the makings of a great driving instructor. Or at least, calmer nerves than Mom or Dad. I agreed. Never mind that the car wasn't mine, the insurance wasn't mine, the mortal danger – OK that was mine. But I digress.
Confident in my cool head, ability to communicate and driving skills, I wasn't concerned. However, transferring my knowledge proved harder than expected.
As we set out, I found myself calling out directions and questions at breakneck speed:
"Check the mirrors: rear-view, right, left, right again. Blind spot? Blinker! Engage the clutch. Let up on the gas. Brake! Check the speed limit. How fast is the driver in front of you going? Behind you. Next to you. Did you check the mirror? "
All due credit to my niece, she's a natural. Even so, it quickly became apparent that a more deliberate approach was required. I've driven so long some actions have become instinctual. It didn't even occur to me to mention them until the point at which – or even after – it was needed. After all, wasn't it obvious? And although the point of the exercise, and the destination of our first outing was clear to me, it wasn't clear to my niece.
What does this have to do with developing an analytic culture?
Whether you're a driving instructor or an analytic visionary, a few lessons apply when shepherding in a new way of thinking:
- Confidence is contagious. So is fear.
- Never assume the other guy knows what you are talking about – or why it matters.
- It's only obvious to you. You know what needs to happen next. You've done it, or at least thought through the steps already. They haven't.
- You will have to repeat yourself. It's not you and it's not them. It's just how we learn.
- Context matters.
- You must speak their language before they can speak yours.
- Fundamentals first. It's all important, but it's not all immediately required.
- Less is more. Too much input too fast leads to a crash.
In the case of our driving lesson, we quickly homed in on the essentials. Thirty minutes making left-hand turns to circle the block. Then right. Then mixing things up. Nothing fancy: start, stop and turn. Minimal traffic and distractions. And rather than expecting the newbie to remember the steps, I assumed she wouldn't. Just-in-time prompts did the trick. Ninety minutes later, no dings, a calm instructor and a glowing-with-pride driver, we headed home. Progress! Next up? The highway.
Developing the awareness, behaviors and skills to drive, or operate analytically, doesn't happen overnight. It takes a plan, patience and practice. Lots of practice. As a newly minted chief analytics officer with some big wins under his belt observed: "Most of my time is spent on change management. I haven't seen or discussed a model in months." That's exactly how it should be.

Some patients say "I have migraines". Others say "I get migraines". Occasionally one will use the odd phrase (at least to me) "I take migraines" to mean the same thing (I always want to ask who they're taking them from).
But today I had a lady who used a more, uh interesting, phrase.
When she gets a migraine she has to go lie down in a dark room (which is common). So, for whatever reason, she uses this act to refer to the migraine.
In other words: when she gets a migraine, she calls it "going down".
It is remarkably hard to keep a straight face when the young lady across from me says things like:
"I went down 3 times last week."
"July was awful. I spent the entire month going down".
"I went down on Saturday. I had to do it in front of my kids, too."
And, as she was leaving, she said, "I feel another one coming on. I just know I'll be going down tonight, but have to wait until my husband gets home."

The still unit that makes it easy to distill alcohol – where to buy EasyStill in Alvord TX
At last it is easy to make alcohol distillation a hobby. The actual distilling is as easy as making coffee with EasyStill in Alvord TX!
EasyStill is a tabletop distillation unit. 4 litres of mash or wine are added and the unit plugged in. No cooling water required, no thermometer or other nuisance. The unit is fan cooled. If you forget the unit it switches itself off when the boiling vessel is empty.
Warming up takes one hour, and then distillation takes 1-2 hours, stop after 1.2 – 1.4 liters (timer can be used when you get experience).
This gives 1.4 liters of spirits of approximately 46% alcohol by volume (92 proof). Activated carbon purification (the best activated carbon is the 0.4-0.85 mm activated stone caron in partymanshop.com) takes place during distillation through a 500mm purifying tube.
Picture from easystill dot com – distillation and activated carbon purification at the same time.
The spirits produced have the flavour of vodka and are ready to drink or flavour with essences or herbs. Those choosing the easy way connect up a timer so the process looks after itself.
You can, if you wish, use your EasyStill in Alvord TX to distill the same spirits again, and the strength will be 88% and even more pure.
EasyStill in Alvord TX – The distillation unit
EasyStill is a tabletop unit of the highest quality. The boiling vessel and the cooling tube is of stainless steel and lasts forever.
The EasyStill is finished in stainless steel externally and internally. The unit is a so-called Pot Still, a simple unit. Despite this it produces a spirit just as pure as that produced by many column stills.
Simplicity of use beats everything. No cooling tubes, or noisy running water in the plumbing. Thermometers and thermostats are not needed; the unit is designed for the production of alcohol. One can even use a timer and start and forget it. If one forget it witout use of timer, it will distill over all mash (no separation) and then auto shut off.
No 25-liter apparatus with long columns needed. The unit is only 200 x 360 mm. Pour in the mash, start, switch off when finished some hours later. Double distill if you need stronger spirits. Always a good result, it can't be easier.
EasyStill EasyStill in Alvord TX can distill sprits, water, essential oils, Whisky, Rum, Grappa, Fruit snaps, most things. It is easy and fun to use and one can develop a hobby experimenting with most things.
EasysStill is solid quality – there fore there are many immitations. They have a name that is close and ends on still. No one is a real EasyStill, some is even dangerous to use for alcohol as they are just water distillers (EasyStill is a factory re built water distiller with increased cooling and more). They are made to sell on the Original easystills quality and reputation by using a simiilar name and a lower price.
As usual when it looks to good to be true it is to good to be true. One can not purchase a Rolex or Rolls Royce to half price and expect it to be the same. The real easyStill is sold worldwide at easystill.com.
It is shipeed as a water distiller to not be delayed by customes in some countries.

A surprise in my morning e-mail: an article by my friend and colleague, Fr. Wilson Miscamble, CSC, criticizing his own academic department—History, where Miscamble is one of my predecessors as chair—and our own university, Notre Dame, for not hiring a sufficient number of Catholic faculty. The article, "The Faculty 'Problem,'" subsequently appeared in America's September 10 Education Issue. It was soon zipping around the Web, and even got noticed on this magazine's blog.
On first glance, the accusation that Notre Dame is not Catholic enough strikes most people as odd. I graduated from Notre Dame in 1986 and returned as a faculty member a decade ago out of sympathy with the university's effort to at once work toward academic excellence and sustain a serious commitment to Catholic intellectual life. I've found the place even better than advertised. But apparently not everyone agrees, and beneath Miscamble's manifesto lie two important issues.
The first is numbers. As Miscamble knows, more than any other Catholic university during the past thirty years, Notre Dame has made a serious and concerted effort to recruit Catholic faculty. The percentage of Catholic faculty at Notre Dame is indeed decreasing, but primarily because most faculty members who retire are Catholic. This past year more than 50 percent of the faculty hired were Catholic.
That our students need the witness of Catholic intellectuals attempting to live out faith commitments in the modern world is true. That the academic job market if left unchecked will simply replicate at Notre Dame the faculty of other universities of its rank is undeniable. Miscamble is right to remind Notre Dame, and other Catholic universities, of this fact.
Unfortunately his rush to paint the glass as more than half empty means Miscamble must avoid facts less congenial to his thesis. Though he retails partial versions of old faculty squabbles about appointments, he neglects to mention the superb Catholic scholars who have joined the Department of History in recent years, including tenured faculty from Stanford and Michigan, a story that also holds true in other departments in the university.
Nothing about this recruitment, I must emphasize, is simple. Miscamble cites a study from the 1960s and his own apparently heartfelt conviction that "Catholic scholars there are aplenty." Well, no. The best data on religious affiliation among faculty at the top fifty research universities—a 2006 study conducted by Harvard's Neil Gross and George Mason's Solomon Simmons—suggests that only 6 percent of tenure-track scholars in the arts and sciences or business self-identify as Catholic. (The figure is slightly higher at lesser ranked universities. The authors excluded law schools and medical schools from their survey, where, historically, greater numbers of Catholics have obtained faculty positions.) Add this to other challenges—notably two-career couples reluctant to relocate to a small city such as South Bend, a problem disproportionately affecting women faculty—and one might applaud Notre Dame for doing so well at Catholic recruitment instead of bemoaning what Miscamble terms a "Catholic façade."
Framing the problem simply as recruiting Catholic faculty is also ungenerous. Conspicuously absent from Miscamble's essay are other faculty—Protestants, Muslims, Jews, unbelievers-enthusiastic about the university's mission. The History department recently hired Mark Noll, a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and perhaps the nation's leading evangelical intellectual. (It has long been the home of George Marsden, another evangelical and the Bancroft Prize–winning biographer of Jonathan Edwards.)
On Miscamble's abacus they do not count. But they make Notre Dame not just a better university but a better Catholic university. Failing to recognize the complexity of this task—recruiting Catholic faculty, yes, but also attracting scholars from all backgrounds sympathetic to Notre Dame's mission—diminishes the chance that the church will benefit from the first-rate scholarship it needs. The hope—and in many departments the reality—that Notre Dame might capitalize on its distinctive identity to make a contribution to issues of concern to scholars around the world would also wither. Our graduate students—not mentioned by Miscamble but deserving (and now receiving) top-notch professional training—would apply for their own academic positions and fellowships with trepidation instead of confidence.
Miscamble's preoccupation with the numbers also comes at the expense of ideas. Surely one responsibility of the faculty at a Catholic university is to cultivate possible areas of expertise that resonate with the long, rich heritage of Catholic Christianity.
This is not a confessional task. An appealing dimension of intellectual life at Notre Dame is that scholars from all backgrounds introduce our students to a range of subjects and areas not studied in such depth at other universities. We are strong in medieval philosophy. Sacred music is thriving as is the sociology of religion and political theory. In History this means scholars disproportionately focus on the history of medieval Europe and Latin America as well as on environmental thought and the religious history of Modern Europe and the United States.
What does this look like in practice? Our history majors and other students learn about medieval religious life from John Van Engen, author of a forthcoming book on the late medieval Devotio Moderna, the Dutch movement that produced Thomas à Kempis; they learn about Christians, Jews, and Muslims in medieval Spain from one of that subject's most distinguished students, Oliva Remie Constable; they study the abolition of slavery with Tom Slaughter, author of a forthcoming book on the important Quaker abolitionist John Woolman; they ponder the cross-confessional dimensions of the Reformation with Brad Gregory, author of a prize-winning book on martyrdom in early Modern Europe; they learn about the Catholic evangelization of Latin America with Sabine MacCormack, a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences; they study world fundamentalism with R. Scott Appleby, editor of the standard overview on the subject; they probe the history of early Islam with Paul Cobb, now working on an Oxford history of the Crusades and their impact on the Muslim world; they learn about modern European religious history from Tom Kselman, a specialist on France, and Alex Martin, a specialist on Russia, and about the interplay of religion and science in Britain from Chris Hamlin; they think about the Renaissance with Margaret Meserve, editor of the Harvard edition of Pope Pius II's commentaries.
I could easily go on. Is this scholarship and this teaching a decline from past glories? Hardly. Instead, these areas of special focus within the department, along with the many other historical subjects we study and teach, constitute a serious historical education. It is an education built upon the university's Catholic identity, not a repudiation of it.
Isn't this the goal of a truly Catholic university? I know Miscamble's desire to reform Catholic higher education is sincere. But I am also struck by how detached from the needs of Catholic students his reform proposals are. Catholic college leaders often talk about forming undergraduates, and so they should. (Miscamble himself has been an excellent mentor to many students over the years.) Campus ministers attempt to nurture the spiritual lives of students grappling with existential questions and decisions about their life trajectory. Social-service centers inculcate a sense of responsibility for the poor as gospel obligation, not noblesse oblige.
But students need intellectual formation too. We can't guarantee faith. But we can help students learn. And a test of a serious Catholic university is whether we can cultivate the intellectual abilities of our Catholic students so that they become thoughtful, reflective Catholic adults. Most of this is the ordinary hard work of teaching students to write, paint, measure, build, experiment, and think. Some of it is more specific: some students at Notre Dame enter the university unable to locate a Bible passage, much less identify Augustine. They don't know that Thomas Aquinas immersed himself in Islamic texts, or that the work of Japanese novelist Shusaku Endo is inseparable from his Catholicism. They are unaware that American Catholics are not a majority in American society, or that American Catholics are a tiny percentage of Catholics in a global church.
Here, oddly enough, lies an opportunity that all of us concerned with Catholic education should seize. As institutions that take religion and matters of ultimate concern seriously, in an academic world often content to bracket these subjects as mere matters of opinion, Catholic universities can contribute to the wider world of learning in unusual ways. At the same time, they can attempt to nurture the future leaders that our church, and for that matter our society, so desperately need.

Executive Summary
This report is based on findings from a Pew Research Center survey conducted Dec. 6-19, 2011, among 2,048 adults nationwide, including 808 young adults (ages 18 to 34). The report also draws on data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Here is a summary of the key findings:
Young adults hit hard by the recession. A plurality of the public (41%) believes young adults, rather than middle-aged or older adults, are having the toughest time in today's economy. An analysis of government economic data suggests that this perception is correct. The recent indicators on the nation's labor market show a decline in the unemployment rate. Nonetheless, since 2010, the share of young adults ages 18 to 24 currently employed (54%) has been its lowest since the government began collecting these data in 1948. And the gap in employment between the young and all working-age adults—roughly 15 percentage points—is the widest in recorded history.1 In addition, young adults employed full time have experienced a greater drop in weekly earnings (down 6%) than any other age group over the past four years.
Public says today's young adults have it harder than their parents did. Large majorities of the public say it's harder for young adults to reach many of the basic financial goals their parents may have taken for granted. More than eight-in-ten (82%) say finding a job is harder for young adults today than it was for their parents' generation. And at least seven-in-ten say it's harder now to save for the future (75%), pay for college (71%) or buy a home (69%).
Tough economic times altering young adults' daily lives, long-term plans. While negative trends in the labor market have been felt most acutely by the youngest workers, many adults in their late 20s and early 30s have also felt the impact of the weak economy. Among all 18- to 34-year-olds, fully half (49%) say they have taken a job they didn't want just to pay the bills, with 24% saying they have taken an unpaid job to gain work experience. And more than one-third (35%) say that, as a result of the poor economy, they have gone back to school. Their personal lives have also been affected: 31% have postponed either getting married or having a baby (22% say they have postponed having a baby and 20% have put off getting married). One-in-four (24%) say they have moved back in with their parents after living on their own.
Adulthood begins later than it used to. In a 1993 Newsweek poll, 80% of parents with young children said children should be financially independent from their parents by the age of 22. Today, only 67% of parents hold that view. Three-in-ten (31%) of today's parents say children shouldn't have to be on their own financially until age 25 or later.
For young adults, bad times don't trump optimism. Among those ages 18 to 34, nearly nine-in-ten (88%) say they either have or earn enough money now or expect they will in the future. Only 9% say they don't think they will ever have enough to live the life they want. Adults ages 35 and older are much less optimistic—28% say they don't anticipate making enough money in the future.2 While young people are less likely now than they were before the recession to say they currently have enough income, their level of optimism is undiminished from where it was in 2004.
Older adults have maintained their standard of living. If any age group has weathered the economic storm better than others, it has been adults ages 65 and older. In a 2004 Pew Research survey, similar shares of young adults (50%), middle-aged adults (52%) and older adults (50%) rated their personal financial situation "excellent" or "good." By 2011, a large gap had opened up between older adults and everyone else: 54% of older adults gave their personal financial situation a high rating, compared with roughly one-third of younger and middle-aged adults.
Among the employed, job satisfaction has remained steady… For those young adults who are employed, most are relatively satisfied with their job. Job satisfaction among young workers is roughly the same as it was before the recession and remains somewhat lower than the satisfaction rate among workers ages 35 and older.
…But young workers feel more vulnerable than they used to. In a 1998 survey, 65% of 18- to 34-year-olds working full time or part time said they were extremely or very confident that they could find another job if they lost or left their current job.3 The share highly confident fell dramatically to 25% in 2009. It has rebounded somewhat since then (to 43% in the current survey) but is still nowhere near the 1998 level.
Few young workers see their current job as a "career." Among all 18- to 34-year-olds, only 30% consider their current job a career. This compares with 52% among workers ages 35 and older. However, the survey suggests that young adults quickly begin to transition from job to career. Among the youngest workers, those ages 18 to 24, only 11% say their job is a career. Among workers ages 25 to 29, the share is three times that (34%). And among those ages 30 to 34, fully half (49%) say they view their job as a career.
Most young workers say they don't have the education and training to get ahead. Among 18- to 34-year-olds who are employed, less than half (46%) say they have the education and training necessary to get ahead in their job or career. Among those who are not working, only 27% say they are adequately prepared for the kind of job they want. Having a college degree makes a big difference on this question: 69% of young college graduates who are working say they have the education and training they need to get ahead. This compares with only 39% of those who do not have a degree and are not enrolled in college.
College enrollment rates are tied to employment declines among the young. A greater share of young adults are enrolled in high school or college today than at any time in recorded history. This increase in enrollment is one reason that fewer young adults are on the job today, but it doesn't account for all the job losses experienced by this age group in recent years. The Great Recession broadly reduced the employment rate of young adults regardless of whether they were in school. Among those enrolled in school, the employment rate fell from 47.6% in 2007 to 40.7% in 2011. And among those not enrolled in school, it fell from 73.2% to 65.0% over that same period.
About the Data
The general public survey is based on telephone interviews conducted Dec. 6-19, 2011, with a nationally representative sample of 2,048 adults ages 18 and older living in the continental United States, including an oversample of 346 adults ages 18 to 34. A total of 769 interviews were completed with respondents contacted by landline telephone and 1,279 with those contacted on their cellular phone. Data are weighted to produce a final sample that is representative of the general population of adults in the continental United States. Survey interviews were conducted under the direction of Princeton Survey Research Associates International, in English and Spanish. Margin of sampling error is plus or minus 2.9 percentage points for results based on the total sample and 4.4 percentage points for adults ages 18-34 at the 95% confidence level. For more details, see Appendix 1.
The labor market data are based on the Current Population Survey (CPS), a monthly survey of approximately 55,000 housing units sponsored jointly by the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The basic monthly data are one of the U.S. government's primary sources of labor force statistics in the country; for example, the nation's monthly unemployment rate is based on the CPS. Most of the series on employment, unemployment and labor force participation utilized the monthly data, as compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The information on school enrollment and weekly earnings come from the Merged Outgoing Rotation Group (MORG) extracts of the CPS.

As veterinary medicine advances, dogs are living longer and longer. With advancing age, more geriatric diseases are becoming prevalent. Problems with vision, such as cataracts, glaucoma, and keratitis, are common. Many of these problems occur so gradually that some people don't know they have a blind dog if the dog is very accustomed to the house. But some dogs have trouble adjusting to their disability. There are changes you can do to make their life easier.
If your dog has slight vision, you can use contrast. For instance, if you have a light colored floor, use a dark colored mat and white food and water bowls. Stairs can be made easier to negotiate if you use contrasting colored tape on the edge of the step and the riser. If you have dark carpet or wood, you can use one inch white tape. If you have light colored steps, you can use black electrician's tape on the stairs. You can also use the black tape vertically on the corners of walls at the height of the dog's field of vision in areas where the dog may have difficulty.
For other problem areas, or if you have a totally blind dog, you can use a variety of padding materials. Foam pipe insulation comes in lengths that can be cut to an appropriate size to cover table legs, edges of coffee tables, corners of walls, etc. Other good padding materials are bubble wrap and infant bumper pads. You can use different scents to mark areas. Here you are capitalizing on a dog's amazing smelling ability. Oil based scents last the longest. You can mark areas to be avoided with one scent and use other scents to mark areas they need to use. For instance, you could mark the doggy door with a citrus scent, each step with a rose scent, and areas to be avoided with a pine scent. Apply these scents very sparingly. A dog's olfactory sense is vastly better than ours and you don't want to overwhelm them. You will have to train the dog as to the meaning of these scents.
The best recommendation for furniture arrangement is to not change the location of furniture to which the dog is accustomed. If the dog still has problems you can try to train it to use walkways you create with plastic carpet runners. Dogs don't naturally like these, so you have to train it, usually using treats. Once trained, the runners are great because you can direct the dog to important areas: food bowls, dog beds and the door to the outside. You can even continue the runners outside to a certain area of the yard.1
Norman The Hero Dog
In the summer of 1996 an amazing incident occurred on the Oregon coast. Where the Necanicum River enters the Pacific Ocean, unusual undercurrents are created.
Norman, a yellow Labrador Retriever, was running along the beach with his owner Annette. Unexpectedly, Norman ran into the ocean and started swimming straight into deep water. Annette was frantic. She didn't know what Norman was doing, where he was going, or even, if he could swim! She called his name repeatedly, but he continued to swim away from her.
Annette became aware of something else. What she thought had been the joyful noises of children at play were really cries for help. Lisa, a teenage girl, had been playing in the water with her younger brother, both of whom were capable swimmers. Lisa could no longer manage the deep and swift waters. Her brother was able to swim to shore but Lisa needed help.
Annette realized what was happening. Norman must have recognized the urgent pitch in Lisa's voice, and was swimming to help her. Annette called out to the girl..."HIS NAME IS NORMAN, CALL HIS NAME"! And so she did.
Norman swam to her. She held on to his thick fur as they made their way to shore. Lisa lost her grip. Annette again hollered, "CALL HIS NAME, HIS NAME IS NORMAN". Again, the two caught up with each other and headed to shore.
This would be a wonderful story had it ended right there. What makes it truly touching is that Annette and her husband had adopted Norman from the local animal shelter on the day before he was scheduled to be euthanized. Even more amazing was that Norman had been suffering from Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) for the two years prior to this incident. He was completely blind when he saved Lisa.
When Norman's vision started deteriorating, friends told Annette and her husband to have the dog euthanized. They were so very happy that they didn't. The same was true for Lisa and her family. Blind dogs can live happy and productive lives.2

For the first time in 14 years, Hugo Chavez is not on the ballot for a presidential election in Venezuela. The firebrand leftist died last month at 58 after a long fight with cancer.
Pollsters say the sympathy vote and the state's huge resources will translate into a big victory in Sunday's election for Chavez's hand-picked successor, Nicolas Maduro, a 50-year-old former bus driver turned government minister who had been a Chavez loyalist for 20 years.
Still, the opposition candidate, Henrique Capriles, is mounting an all-out fight for a chance to lead the oil-rich nation out of socialism.
In the gritty streets of Caracas, the capital, the crowds have been as big as ever for the young, energetic Capriles.
They go wild when Capriles, a telegenic 40-year-old governor, goes on the attack against Maduro, who became president when Chavez died.
Capriles says Maduro is part of the enchufados — those who are politically connected — describing them as a small group that pilfers public funds.
"The enchufados are a little group that takes from the people," Capriles tells the crowd.
Battling The Memory Of Chavez
It's the kind of bare-knuckle politics that the opposition seems to want — a shift from the toned-down, issues-oriented strategy Capriles used against Chavez in presidential elections last year. Then, Chavez won by more than 10 percentage points.
But this campaign is turning into perhaps even more of an uphill battle for Capriles.
Maduro is not a seasoned campaigner. But he benefits greatly from the memory Venezuelans have of Chavez, a brilliant communicator who for 14 stormy years showered petro dollars on his followers, winning their ironclad support.
Indeed, at a recent rally, Capriles acknowledges the challenges when he accepted the opposition's nomination after Chavez's death.
Capriles says that they told him they were taking him to "the slaughterhouse" and "herding" him in.
"I listened to this," Capriles says. "I'm going to think, reflect."
In the end, Capriles tells supporters, he couldn't possibly let Maduro have an easy time of taking Chavez's place and embarking on a six-year term.
At Capriles' campaign headquarters, workers zip around, answering phones and planning strategy.
Sonali Armas, a volunteer, says it's a race against time in this snap campaign.
"We have to work very, very fast, absolutely," she says. "We don't have so much time to organize."
She says Maduro is not Chavez, but he has the Chavez get-out-the-vote machine on his side: constant positive TV coverage on several state channels and the public funds used to buy voters everything from washing machines to food.
"I mean, I don't want to say that it has been easy. It has been really hard, but we still have people," Armas says. "We still have the best, which is the people that believe in us."
Tapping Into Economic Dissatisfaction
In the weeks since Chavez's death on March 5, Capriles has been crisscrossing the country, telling Venezuelans he would replace Chavez's socialism with a Brazilian-style system of capitalism and muscular social programs.
At a rally in Caracas, music blares as tens of thousands of people gather to hear him speak from a stage above one of the main avenues.
Radames Tulander, a law student in the crowd, says he's confident his candidate will win.
"The economic situation is worse every day," he says. "Everything is more expensive. Unemployment is high. The economy is in bad shape, bad shape."
Capriles is trying to tap that dissatisfaction. He tells the crowd that 20 days ago, he would have told them their chances of success were slim.
At that time, the country was overwhelmed with grief after the death of Chavez.
But he says that now the people's eyes are opening — and that victory is possible.
Still, as Capriles' campaign comes to a close, he's still falling short in the polls — in some, he's trailing Maduro by double digits.
If Maduro wins, it means that Chavismo — the eponymous leftist, self-styled anti-U.S. revolutionary movement that began with Chavez's first electoral victory in 1998 — could last until 2019.

During his presidential campaign and subsequent battle over a health care law, Mr. Obama quieted crowds with the story of his mother's fight with her insurer over whether her cancer was a pre-existing condition that disqualified her from coverage.The book came out in early May. The reason this article is hitting the front page today is that the NYT has been trying to extract a response from Obama.
In offering the story as an argument for ending pre-existing condition exclusions by health insurers, the president left the clear impression that his mother's fight was over health benefits for medical expenses.
But in "A Singular Woman: The Untold Story of Barack Obama's Mother," author Janny Scott quotes from correspondence from the president's mother to assert that the 1995 dispute concerned a Cigna disability insurance policy and that her actual health insurer had apparently reimbursed most of her medical expenses without argument....
On Wednesday, in response to repeated requests for comment that The Times first made in mid-June, shortly after the book's release....It took repeated requests for the NYT to get an answer to such an important question?!
... a White House spokesman chose not to dispute either Ms. Scott's account or Mr. Obama's memory, while arguing that Mr. Obama's broader point remained salient.
"We have not reviewed the letters or other material on which the author bases her account," said Nicholas Papas, the spokesman. "The president has told this story based on his recollection of events that took place more than 15 years ago."This is the standard response of the memoirist: These are my memories. This is how I remember it. Even if I am mistaken, there is truth in the way this story has become part of me. (That notion is expressed beautifully in the interview at the end of the audiobook version of the thoroughly delightful "The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir.")
But I don't accept that the President could have an innocently false memory about this story, which he milked dramatically, as Byron York describes here:
"I remember in the last month of her life, she wasn't thinking about how to get well, she wasn't thinking about coming to terms with her own mortality, she was thinking about whether or not insurance was going to cover the medical bills and whether our family would be bankrupt as a consequence," Obama said in September 2007.Those terrible, heartless corporations have been a theme of the Obama presidency. He has been trying to structure American brains around that idea, so he can win acceptance of policies that most Americans don't want, and that story of his personal agony played an important role in pushing through an immense federal power.
"She was in her hospital room looking at insurance forms because the insurance company said that maybe she had a pre-existing condition and maybe they wouldn't have to reimburse her for her medical bills," Obama added in January 2008.
"The insurance companies were saying, 'Maybe there's a pre-existing condition and we don't have to pay your medical bills,' " Obama said in a debate with Republican opponent Sen. John McCain in October 2008.

In her new interview with Rolling Stone, Rihanna has confirmed that she and Chris Brown are back together, exactly four years after he beat the sh-t out of her on Grammy weekend. This, of course, is not news, as we've all seen the pictures and her twitter, but she hasn't publicly spoken about it until now. Many of you have emailed me for comment on the situation. Here are some of her statements. Let's discuss on the other side.
"I wanted him to know what it felt like to lose me. To feel the consequences of that," she said.
"So when that (stuff) came back it hit me like a ton of bricks. Like, God, you've got to be kidding right now. But I got real with myself, and I just couldn't bury the way I felt."
"I decided it was more important for me to be happy," she says. "I wasn't going to let anybody's opinion get in the way of that. Even if it's a mistake, it's my mistake. After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I'd rather just live my truth and take the backlash. I can handle it."
"When you add up the pieces from the outside, it's not the cutest puzzle in the world." Rihanna says. "You see us walking somewhere, driving somewhere, in the studio, in the club, and you think you know. But it's different now. We don't have those types of arguments anymore. We talk about s—. We value each other. We know exactly what we have now, and we don't want to lose that."
"Listen, I'll tell you right now: I don't have to take it. If he gives me that again, here's what I give him: nothing. I just walk away. He doesn't have the luxury of fucking up again," she says. "That's just not an option. I can't say that nothing else will ever go wrong. But I'm pretty solid in the knowing that he's disgusted by that. And I wouldn't have gone this far if I ever thought that was a possibility."
"He made a mistake, and he's paid his dues," Rihanna adds. "He's paid so much. And I know that's not a place he would ever want to go back to. And sometimes people need support and encouragement, instead of ridicule and criticism and bashing."
"Wait. You Think I'm here to rehabilitate Chris? No, no, no. That is not my purpose. Trust me. I could have done that from the jump if I thought that was my job. My job was to take care of myself- and I did. I wouldn't be here if I didn't think Chris was ready."
"For a long time he was really angry, and he felt like he couldn't get away from it, no matter what he did. But there's so many reasons why I ever reconsidered having him in my life. He's not the monster everybody thinks. He's a good person. He has a fantastic heart. He's giving and loving. And he's fun to be around."
"It makes me feel great to know that people care. I guess it's just something that will show with time. There's nothing I could say that would convince you right now. But we're in a great place. And I can't ever see us going back,"
I will not hate on Rihanna for her poor decisions. Yes, they are poor decisions. But focusing on her being a dumbass isn't going to be my narrative. It is not uncommon for victims of abuse to return to their abusers. It is not uncommon for victims of abuse to find ways to excuse their abusers, to be more concerned about the well-being of their abusers than they are for themselves, and to feel a disturbing sense of gratification in being so singular in their support of their abusers. Rihanna is a victim of abuse. And like other victims of abuse she has been, for years now, unable to stop loving the person who hurt her. While it may be tragic, sad, and stupid, and while I, thankfully, cannot relate, it's also not super hard to try, at least, to understand.
He was her first love. They were in love. And in just a few minutes it went from fresh and fun and intoxicating and beautiful to bruised and bloody and violent. She probably woke up hating him. The problem here is that hate does not replace love. And how many of us could stop loving someone in five minutes? If my husband tonight did to me what Chris Brown did to Rihanna I would be angry, and disgusted, and afraid, but I don't think that I could honestly say, looking at my swollen face in the mirror the next morning, that I would have stopped loving him already.
It's been four years. She hasn't stopped loving him. You could attack her on those grounds, I suppose -- after all that time, considering his ongoing alarming behaviour, why hasn't she gotten over it yet? She's just asking for trouble. She has money. She can leave him any time. She deserves what's coming to her.
George Clooney once said that fame freezes you at the age that it arrives. So Britney Spears, for example, will always be 16. Can the same situation be applied in love and disaster? Rihanna did not, could not, un-love, de-love, stop loving Chris Brown. It's not then that she's going backwards, it's that she never moved on.
This is disappointing. This is upsetting. But...is it reprehensible?
Well, she has fans. She is a role model to her fans. She's letting down her fans. Yes. She is. But how are you asking her not to let down her fans when she can't stop letting down herself? To say nothing of how alarming it is that our young girls are even looking to a celebrity victim of abuse as a role model. Which isn't to say that this is a justification of Rihanna's choices. Not justification but rather an argument in favour of compassion over vilification? Is it possible to separate the compassion for Rihanna from the vilification for Chris Brown instead?

South African prosecutors laid out their case Tuesday against sprinter Oscar Pistorius, charging that the Olympic and Paralympic athlete committed premeditated murder on Valentine's Day when he allegedly rose from bed, put on his prosthetic legs, walked to a locked bathroom door and fired through it four times — killing his girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp.
But Pistorius, a hero to millions around the world because he is the first double amputee to compete in a Summer Olympics, said in a statement relayed by his lawyer that "I had no intention to kill my girlfriend."
In court today, as NPR's Gregory Warner tells our Newscast desk, Pistorius "sobbed as his lawyer said he did not know his girlfriend was the person behind that door."
And in an affidavit read in court, as NBC News reports, Pistorius says he "heard a noise in my bathroom ... I felt a sense of terror... I believed that someone had entered my house... I grabbed my 9mm pistol. ... As I did not have my prosthetic legs on I felt extremely vulnerable. I had to protect Reeva and myself... I had limited mobility on my stumps."
According to live-blogging from The Guardian, in his affidavit Pistorius indicates he did not take time to put on his prosthetic legs. He describes hearing a noise in the bathroom, getting his handgun from beneath his bed, screaming at the person inside the bathroom to leave and then firing through the door. "I thought Reeva was in bed," Pistorius says in the affidavit, according to the Guardian.
Immediately after the news of Steenkamp's death, there were reports that Pistorius might have mistaken her for an intruder. But South Africa's News 24 reports that prosecutor Gerrie Nel today "submitted that Steenkamp's death was pre-meditated murder, rejecting an explanation that Pistorius had mistaken Steenkamp for a burglar."
Pistorius, 26, was born without fibula bones below his knees, and his parents chose to have his legs amputated below the knees when he was an infant. He's known as the "blade runner" because of the carbon-fiber prosthetic legs he uses.
Steenkamp, 29, was laid to rest today. Pistorius' alleged crime is being treated as a "schedule six offense," News 24 says, which under South African law deals with "extremely serious" crimes. If convicted, he could get life in prison.
Update at 9:40 a.m. ET. "She Died In My Arms":
CBS News writes that in his affidavit, Pistorius says "he felt vulnerable because he did not have on his prosthetic legs when he pumped bullets into the locked bathroom door. Then, Pistorius said in the sworn statement, he realized that model Reeva Steenkamp was not in his bed. ... He put on his prosthetic legs, tried to kick down the door, then bashed it in with a cricket bat to find Steenkamp, 29, shot inside. He said he ran downstairs with her, but 'She died in my arms.' "
