Someone in the prop department of the Beverly Hillbillies was having fun. In another case of what could be gotten away with in the days before VCRs and DVRs, I present you with this image, taken from "Something for the Queen," which aired on October 2, 1968, the second episode of Season 7.

The Golden Age of Bad TV
You often hear the complaint that modern television is terrible, followed up by the question: "Why can't they make good programs like they used to in the old days?" Most often this lament is linked to the prevalence of reality programs. While I completely agree that there's a great deal of bad TV on the… Read more »
Lew Burdette's Home Run
Ah, the good old days of television, back before the advent of the VCR. You could get away with a lot more in the 1950s than you can now. These days, every frame of a program can be easily analyzed by anyone with a DVR or a DVD player. Mistakes are quickly spotted, and goofs… Read more »
Having been rewatching old Star Trek original series episodes as well as reading old Archie Comics lately, I was happy to come across this. This was from early 1977, so it's a little too soon to be riding the wave of the first motion picture, which was 1979. Star Trek had been making a bit… Read more »
Who Mourns for Adonais?
Next up in my examination of the original series Star Trek is the early second season episode "Who Mourns for Adonais?" Like "The Apple", this episode also explores religion, the ancient Greek religion to be exact. The story, however, isn't anti-religious in tone. Indeed, it features one of those rare times in TOS when someone… Read more »
The Apple
Lately I've been rewatching the original Star Trek television series, and I've come to a conclusion. I'm no longer able to watch anything without analyzing it to death. That's one of the bad things that taking cultural studies in grad school does to you. Once you're exposed to theory, your life is over. You can't… Read more »

Baroness Warnock: "The demented have a 'duty to die'"
The veteran Government adviser said pensioners in mental decline are "wasting people's lives" because of the care they require and should be allowed to opt for euthanasia even if they are not in pain.
She insisted there was "nothing wrong" with people being helped to die for the sake of their loved ones or society.
The 84-year-old added that she hoped people will soon be "licensed to put others down" if they are unable to look after themselves.
Lady Warnock said: "If you're demented, you're wasting people's lives – your family's lives – and you're wasting the resources of the National Health Service.
"I'm absolutely, fully in agreement with the argument that if pain is insufferable, then someone should be given help to die, but I feel there's a wider argument that if somebody absolutely, desperately wants to die because they're a burden to their family, or the state, then I think they too should be allowed to die.
"Actually I've just written an article called 'A Duty to Die?' for a Norwegian periodical. I wrote it really suggesting that there's nothing wrong with feeling you ought to do so for the sake of others as well as yourself."
She went on: "If you've an advance directive, appointing someone else to act on your behalf, if you become incapacitated, then I think there is a hope that your advocate may say that you would not wish to live in this condition so please try to help her die.
"I think that's the way the future will go, putting it rather brutally, you'd be licensing people to put others down."

A Death in a Dutch Family
5.30pm: Dad is bent over the toilet bowl with a brush in his hand and a scowl on his face. I walk up to him. "Shall I give you a hand?" Dad begins to snigger, abandoning any attempt to make sense of the situation. We stand shoulder to shoulder with our backs to Mum, who paces around the landing with a newly fitted catheter in her hand.
The catheter has been put in by nurse Marianne to enable our GP, who will be with us in half an hour, to give Mum a lethal injection. But instead of having a moment of peace with us, as Marianne suggested, Mum demands that we clean the toilets. Both upstairs and downstairs.
My brother, Maarten, is sitting on the edge of the bath, staring out of the bathroom window.
"Imagine," he mutters. "Her last hour, spent like this."
This is the Netherlands, where voluntary euthanasia is permitted, as well as physician-assisted suicide. This is the day my mother has chosen to die, and the toilets need to be spotless.
The mundane stories of everyday euthanasia,those that don't usually make it into the papers are often the most disturbing. The blockquote above doesn't adequately express the essense of this story. For those who haven't seen the grim, desparate and ultimately tragic side of this debate, I encourage you to read the whole article. It does an excellent job of pointing out that those who choose assisted suicide are more often than not motivated not by pain, butdepression and fear. What is needed is not a quicker death, but hope.

Listen to Slant's 25 Best Singles of 2016
So many of the highlights and lowlights of the year in singles were, for better or worse, attuned to what feels like a worldwide drift toward maintaining one's own financial and psychological (same diff) bottom line at the expense of anyone else's. Beyoncé, of all performers, was far from immune, though her particular brand of exceptionalism continues to dress itself up in the finery of collective consciousness raising. Far more common were the unfussy, ruthlessly entertaining likes of Fifth Harmony speaking on behalf of Melania Trumps everywhere. Or Kanye West's epic clapback against Taylor Swift, which in turn presaged his detour into the mental hospital, which we've now seen firsthand more or less counts as the first step in a presidential bid in 2020.

ED Limato, 71, may have a hard time finding a new job after being unceremoniously demoted at ICM. The ill-tempered agent had talks with CAA, which covets his clients Richard Gere, Denzel Washington and Mel Gibson – but CAA doesn't want to pay Limato's $5 million salary or hire all his staff, including two script readers, sources say. The Endeavor agency won't employ Limato either, because after Gibson's infamous anti-Semitic drunken-driving rant last year, Endeavor head Ari Emanuel called for a Hollywood boycott of the star. "Even if Ari and Ed iron out their differences, Mel won't go to Endeavor, and he is Ed's biggest client," one insider said. Maybe United Talent is interested, but it probably won't want to pay the $1 million cost (as ICM did) for Limato's geriatric pre-Oscar party. "No one came anymore, and it always turned out to be just a personal party for him and his friends," our insider said.

A Subversive Gospel:
Flannery O'Connor and the Reimagining of Beauty, Goodness, and Truth
Michael Bruner
Paperback: IVP Academic, 2017
Buy Now: [ Amazon ] [ Kindle ]
Reviewed by Peter Surran
The cover of Michael Mears Bruner's book, A Subversive Gospel: Flannery O'Connor and the Reimagining of Beauty, Goodness, and Truth, features O'Connor in her familiar spectacles and headscarf looking very subversive indeed. She looks like she's up to something and, the truth is, scholars have been debating on what that "something" is for decades.
Bruner adds to that debate by presenting a fresh key to unlocking O'Connor's writing: the work of the theologian Baron Friedrich von Hugel. The answer to the question of, "Why do we need another book about Flannery O'Connor," is that von Hugel's influence on the writer has never been thoroughly explored, at least in Bruner's estimation. In this regard, Bruner does prove his point. He points out seemingly obvious points of convergence, pun intended, with a "how-did-they-miss-this" level of certainty.

text: Podcasts; I'm not a fan. Wait, let me clarify: Podcasts for authors: I'm not a fan. They're the hot, new THANG, and it seems like everyone is jumping on the podcast bandwagon. Twitter and Facebook feeds are now overrun with writing gurus trumpeting "LISTEN TO MY PODCAST!" And if they think that's any different than an author constantly trumpeting "BUY MY BOOK!" then they're delusional. Both posts are annoying as hell.

Happy Day
It's just after 11:00 p.m. and I am winding down with a glass of whiskey after a really nice day. I haven't enjoyed a whiskey in awhile since I had a cold and my sense of taste was gone ... not gonna waste it, if I can't taste it! But today is my birthday, so I poured a glass. I was so pleased today to get phone calls from my brother Gary, my sister Debra, son Neil and daughter Jennifer. Of course I also chatted with Tyler and Nathan. Victoria sent me a really nice e-mail. And I got dozens of nice notes on Facebook, including one from Christine, Ronald's daughter. She said my brother Ron is still is still "in the FOB right now" and not able to get to a phone. Ron is in Afghanistan and the FOB is a forward operating base, which means it's basically a few tents, a few tanks and a latrine. But I know he would call if he could. He always does. But it has been such a nice day. When I think of all the nice people I know, I realize I am blessed. : )
2 comments:
Hope i'm still in your nice people catagory....lol. I don't get to see you often, but it was nice running into, especially on your special day. Prefer not to say my name, but you know who it is...lol.
Ofr course I know who it is, and yes, you'll always be special for so many good reasons. Thanks for the hug! And by the way, nice jeans! ;)

20 Tips to Choose an ERP System in Singapore
Enterprise Resource Planning software is an suite of software modules that allow businesses to integrate the main functions of their business. Interlinking modules might include HR management, inventory control, billing, shipping, and so on. By integrating the main components of your business into a single system, businesses can automate many back office functions and more easily identify opportunities for efficiencies.
ERP software in Singapore is gaining traction as companies (both enterprise and small business) look to drive increase profit margins in their businesses. ERP is especially well-received in Singapore because the local government brings the upfront cost of ERP implementation to nearly S$0 with grants like PIC and ICV, available to businesses who make meaningful investments in productivity improvements.
If you are a small business in Singapore then getting a government subsidized ERP system seems like an easy decision, but which system is best? An Enterprise Resource Planning system is a long term commitment and changing systems isn't always easy or affordable – you need to get it right the first time.
To answer how small businesses should choose an ERP system, we connected with 5 ERP experts. Combined they have decades of experience in ERP implementation, and they were generous to share some thoughts for this article. Please note, responses are edited for length, so any confusion or mistakes falls on us!.
The main take-away from the experts is that businesses need to be clear on what they do, and how they do it, before they decide which ERP systems to evaluate.
5 Experts Show How To Choose an ERP System
Dimitris Athanasiadis – Director Business Development, Megaventory
1: It's a good idea to make a list of your requirements and compare them against what the software out there has to offer.
2: Good usability is often ignored or glossed over even though it can make all the difference when choosing ERP.
3: It's important that you've spent time on which ever solution you select, and time enough to ensure it's user-friendly so that employees will actually make the most use of it. That's the only method for your business to benefit from the investment and see a significant productivity boost down the road.
Mor Sagmon – CEO, Excellench Technologies
4: Consider your business growth beyond "today". Visualize you're a large enterprise and see how the ERP solution scales with your business.
5: Consider how the ERP solution adapts to changing markets and regulations. Ask whether best practices have been built into the solution over time by leaders in your industry.
6: Make sure migrating to other solutions is easily and intentionally supported and offered. The data must remain yours. You need to be able to download all data in a standard format whenever you need it, and not get locked-in to the specific vendor who has your valuable data behind their walls.
7: For smaller companies, think like a well-established business. Be open to change processes you're used to and implement processes that will last for long time. Avoid customization for your specific needs as much as possible. If the software doesn't seem to work like you do – re-visit how you do it, before you attempt to change the software, it will probably benefit your business in the long run.
Sharoon Thomas – CEO, Fulfil.IO
8: Prepare a list of the top 20 issues that everyone in the company thinks are the highest priority issues they would want their ERP system to solve. Now evaluate the systems on the basis of these 20 issues.
9: Ask the sales person to explain their approach to solving your top 20 problems. This is where you would be able to differentiate between vendors who understand your business with the ones who don't.
10: Even if a product is good, a poor execution and on-boarding leads to failure. Ask about the on-boarding process. Is the vendor handling you off to an implementation partner? Do they understand your top 20 problems?
11: Free trials are useless for complex products like ERP systems. If you are a growing business, it is not worth your time to evaluate a vanilla version of an ERP. Evaluating the ERP system with a few test records is also unlikely to show you potential issues when in actual use.
12: Talk to existing customers of the software and ask for references. See if businesses similar to you in revenue and business model have found success in using the product.
Gene Hammons – Practice Director, Vaco
13: Choosing an ERP system starts internally. Formally mapping transaction flows or just white boarding business processes will help you focus on your internal needs.
14: Determine what transaction costs can be realistically improved upon to drive savings. What are the savings year one through year three? Is there potential for revenue enhancement? Answers to these questions will help determine a realistic budget for your ERP investment.
15: Your budget narrows the ERP choices, and the evaluation hinges on your specific requirements and your agenda alone. Examine ERP packages to find the ones that have strengths where your greatest potential efficiency gains are.
16: Don't forget secondary considerations – you might pay a little more for a program you won't outgrow in 5 years to save the time, expense and effort of not upgrading ERP until year seven.
Brian Kappus – CEO, CloudLink ERP Solutions
17: A good system has got to be manageable without adding people.
18: Choose an ERP system that is scalable so you don't have to switch systems as you grow your business.
19: Look for a cloud-based ERP system so you can access it from wherever you have an Internet connection.
20: As fast as software and technology is changing today, focus on SaaS (Software as a Service) software.

I just heard a clunk outside
I thought nothing of it as there is a cat who is in the habit of jumping from one window sill to another. Then there was a louder one and a bloke landed on the window from the garages next door and looked in. When he saw me he ran out in to the garden. I'm hoping it was one of the innumerable occupants of the shared house next door who'd forgotten their keys but I think I might see if I can get the burglar alarm fixed.
would shit me up. but then its really underpopulated (for the UK) here.
We have been robbed twice before
a few years back so it wasn't that surprising if that is what it was. I'm glad I saw him if that was the case as I'd rather than then him break in and I wander down to investigate and find a bloke sizing up the hi-fi.
Cricket bat to the legs
and if necessary, then to the spine.
Spend the rest of the night plotting and conceiving booby traps.
The more ridiculous the better

Re bank account, are you sure they're not just asking you to deposit €150 in it? They will probably want you to put some money in it to begin with, just to prove you're going to use it. Also, just buy shampoo and toiletries at a supermarché - much cheaper!ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Sarah - yep I think you're right about the deposit! The man in the bank didn't explain it very well and just said I needed to hand over €150 so I had no idea about a deposit! But I'm considering setting up a student account somewhere else with a smaller deposit! Thanks for the advice :) xDelete
I've just set up an account with Banque Populaire Rives de Paris and they were pretty good - small deposit, friendly service, and €1 a month for account, card and internet banking included. Good luck!Delete

Truly, You have never been a university student if you don't know these people: List of 8 People Every University Student Must Know.
How can you be a university student if you don't know these people? Do not stay in the dark anymore while other people discuss them. Here are their names and contributions to life. List of 8 People Every University Student Must Know
Remember: Martin Luther King Junior won The 1964 Nobel Peace Prize for his role in fighting for black rights using non-combatant method.
Dr. Martin Luther King Junior
He is popularly known as MLK. He is popular for fighting for the rights of black people in the United States. But beyond America, Martin Luther King Jr. was also reputed especially after earning the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. He was also one of the greatest orators of his time. Some of his popular speeches include the 1963's 'I have a dream', 'I've been to the mountain top', 'Vietnam and beyond' and writings like the'Letter from Birmingham Prison' others. He was shot dead in 1969, at the age of 39 years. MLK is among people every campus student must know!
Malcolm X
Malcolm was one of the black American human right activist, known for his no-nonsense stand in the fight for the liberation of black people from racist attacks. He was majorly Muslim and he believed in extreme methods of dealing with the racism in America at that time. The 'X' in his name means nullity, he insisted that his African name had been taken away during slave trade. He is famed for speeches like 'Who taught you to hate the skin God Gave you?', 'The house neegro vs the field neegro', 'When one exercises intelligently directly extremism for the sake of liberty for human beings, it's no vice', and many others. He was 40 when he was assassinated in 1965. Malcolm is person every university student must know.
Note: Malcolm X contributed to the Civil Rights and Dignity of Black people in The US
Steve Biko
Steve Biko is the African definition of activism. Yeah, He was only a young university student in South Africa when he stood up against the oppressive rule of the apartheid policy. He was a mastermind of the Soweto Uprising and many more. He was ruthlessly murdered by the apartheid government police. You can get more about Steve Biko via google search . For sure, Biko is in the List of 8 People Every University Student Must Know!
Albert Einstein
Now, who does not know Him? This is the father of all inventions and intelligent quotes. Besides the Law of Relativity and E = MC2 radioactivity equations, Einstein gave several quotes and made several discoveries. During his time, the German was considered the most intelligent person in the world. After the WW2 (World Word II), he was offered to be the President of Israel, but declined. How did you even become a university student if you don't know Einstein?!
Socrates, Plato, Aristotle
If you don't know them, it's only understandable if you are a first year student and haven't seen the door to a lecture hall yet. These three Greek Philosophers are the reason art guys go to school or so I suppose. You would never have done an art course at the university or any other higher institution today without mentioning these names. They were so wise that their only equal would be probably Solomon. Catch up with a book like The Republic by Plato and you will marvel at just how, hundreds of years before Christ (about 400BC), people would reason out things like this! These are the real guys in the List of 8 People Every University Student Must Know!

Why do you need a knife Santoku in the kitchen?
No mistress can do without a knife in the kitchen. It is very important that it is sharp, comfortable and preferably not heavy. After all, it will not only save time for cooking your favorite dish, but the process of creating a culinary masterpiece will bring pleasure. So how to choose such a wonder-knife and where to find it?
About Japanese knives
Today, the world's best chefs and chefs prefer knives from Japan. And this is not surprising. After all, it is these tools that perfectly cope with their tasks: they cut, crumble and cut. And the Japanese quality has been unsurpassed for many years.
Conditionally knives from the Land of the Rising Sun can be divided into traditional Japanese (wabotyo) and European (yobotyo). European (or Western) tools are distinguished by bilateral sharpening. Traditionally, the Japanese, such as the kitchen knife "Santoku", have one-sided sharpening. This tool was designed as a modification of the French knife for cutting meat (beef). But today, Santoku is gaining in popularity with a double-sided sharpening.
It should be noted that it is the knife that is the main kitchen utensils in Japan. Every Japanese chef has his own personal tool, which he will surely take with him, going to work in another restaurant.
A bit of history
Japan in many of us is associated with samurai and magnificent sharp, like a blade, samurai knives. It is with this legendary attribute that the history of kitchen knives begins. The first such tool was created by Japanese masters-saberists in the 16th century in the city of Sakai. When tobacco was brought from Portugal to the Land of the Rising Sun, there was a need to cut it somehow. Since then, the city of Sakai is famous for its production of knives. And in our time it is here that the legendary kitchen attributes are made.
Japanese steel is very strong and durable. In addition, the Japanese in the process of creating a special technique of grinding. For what? Knife "Santoku", for example, its popularity due to this technique. So the masters retain their primal acuity, create the best, preserving the traditions.
His Majesty the Japanese knife "Santoku"
Santoku bōchō - universal kitchen cutting tool from the Land of the Rising Sun. Translated the name from Japanese as "three uses" (or "three good things"). It says that the knife perfectly copes with three basic functions: cutting, chopping, chopping.
The appearance of "Santoku" is due to the usual chief-knife, who appeared in Japan as early as the Meiji times. The chief-knife was used mainly when cutting meat or fish. After all, products that are beyond his control, simply do not exist.
In the Japanese cuisine, cereals and greens prevailed at that time. And, as a consequence, the spread in the country received a vegetable knife. It was convenient for them to shred and fine cut. You could even cut the fillets. However, with large products, cutting which required special effort, the vegetable knife could no longer cope. There was a need to create a universal cutting tool. So there was "Santoku".
Having reworked and adjusted the Western model to their needs, the Japanese created a new kitchen attribute, excellent cutting, shredding and cutting products, for which the knife "Santoku", in general, today is needed.
Santoku or chef's knife: what to choose?
At once we will notice, that today professional cooks use both these tools. Both Santoku and the traditional chef-knife occupy an honorable place in the kitchen. They perfectly cope with their tasks. However, there is some difference between them.
So, the chef's knife "Santoku" has a shortened blade length (compared to a knife-knife) (188 mm against 330 mm). But the height of the blade is higher. Also, the Japanese knife is characterized by a smooth rise of the cutting edge. He has a steeper knife (gyuto). Another difference between the tools is in the edge of the blade. At "Santoku" it is reduced down, and the traditional chef-knife has a sharp point. The Japanese knife is heavier in weight. But this can be called an advantage, because many cooks like to feel the instrument in his hand.
Why does a Santok knife need a housewife?
Women who love to cook, have long recognized Japanese knives as their main assistants. You can not do in the kitchen without Santoku, especially if you like to create something exotic. Sharp, ergonomic and perfectly retaining the original sharpening knife is rightly considered the main attribute of the housewife. "Santoku" quickly and qualitatively cut both potatoes and soft salmon. In addition, this tool is convenient to store. Unlike some cumbersome knives, "Santoku" does not require a special area reserved for it and fits in any tight locker or on a regular stand.
Housewives of the whole world who have already appreciated the Japanese quality prefer not to save on the knives. It's no secret that a quality thing can not be cheap. Japanese knives are more expensive than many others. But it's deserved. Slice vegetables into thin slices or crumble into cubes, cut beef or fish, chop the fillets to the state of minced meat - that's what the "Santoku" knife is designed for.

Numerous Oklahoma state and federal laws apply to a wide variety of criminal acts broadly classified under identity theft, and state and federal investigators and prosecutors are pouring ever increasing resources into going after individuals and companies that may or may not be connected to identity theft crimes. It is easy for otherwise law-abiding people and businesses to find themselves the targets of criminal identity theft investigations – often for allegedly facilitating another's identity theft actions – whether they were aware of criminal activity or not. Regardless of whether you are under investigation or charged as an identity thief or an accomplice (unwitting or otherwise), it is imperative to do everything you can to avoid steep criminal fines and jail sentences.
White collar defense lawyer Patrick Quillian provides comprehensive criminal defense counsel to those under investigation and/or facing state or federal criminal charges for identity theft crimes in and around Oklahoma City.
Prosecutors and investigators have sophisticated means of compiling evidence in identity theft crimes, and will often target those parties at the periphery of alleged identity theft crimes first, including retailers, financial service workers, small businesses, and even those who may themselves be victims of identity theft.
By working with the white collar criminal defense team at the office of J. Patrick Quillian, we can take charge of the situation by fully assessing and untangling the facts, defending your state and federal constitutional rights in all communications with government agents, and presenting your best defense to all identity theft allegations and charges, including:
Again, under accomplice and conspiracy laws, third parties may be prosecuted for merely assisting, encouraging, or agreeing to help another in an identity theft crime, whether they understood the action to be illegal or not. Thus, it is critical to work with an experienced criminal defense attorney at the first sign of an investigation to protect your rights and defend your interests.
If you are under suspicion for any type of identity theft, contact the office of J. Patrick Quillian, Attorney at Law, today at 405.294.4448 to schedule a free, confidential consultation to see what his criminal defense team can do for you in aggressively defending your interests in all identity theft investigations and prosecutions.

The decision to look into the relationship followed reports that Dr. Hayden Nicholson resigned as dean because of difficulty in getting the medical school's problems before the university's Board of Trustees. Dr. Nicholson said it was "gross over simplification" to say that the difficulties were the only — or main reason for his resignation. He will become an official in the Hospital Council of New York this month. Others named to the Medical Society committee include Dr. H. W. Thomas of Dermott, Dr. H. King Wade of Hot Springs, Dr. H.

Islamabad: Five more people have died in Gujranwala area of Pakistan`s Punjab province after drinking a "poisonous" cough syrup, taking the death toll to 40 in nearly two months.
Quoting sources in the Civil Hospital, Gujranwala, 80 km from the provincial capital of Lahore, the Express Tribune reported today that more than eight patients are in critical condition.
With the death of five more people, the toll has climbed to 40 in nearly two months, the report said.
The tainted Tyno cough syrup had claimed nearly 20 lives, a majority of them drug addicts, in Lahore last month, after which pharmacy stores holding stock of this medicine were sealed and some people were arrested.
All the recent victims had also reportedly consumed the same cough syrup in which `dextromethorphan` has been identified as an active ingredient.
The Gujranwala City District team, along with police, had conducted raids in medical stores throughout the city.
Around 8,765 syrup bottles had been confiscated from 96 medical stores out of a total of 224 which had been raided in the area, the report said.

Moon Dance - J.R. Rain
Samantha Moon is trying to balance her family life, her work life, and her vampire life. 6 years ago Samantha was infected by a vampire. She had to quit her job as a federal agent because going out in the sun is impossible without slathering on a bottle of sunblock.
Her husband is spending more and more time at work and not coming home. When Sam was first infected he was great, but unfortunately, he's pulling away more and more. Pretty much disgusted with his cold, scary wife. Still Sam holds on for her kids.
A client walks in and asks her to find the man that shot him 5 times in the head. With her vampire instincts it should be no problem for Sam. She finds herself in the middle of a strange case and not sure of where to turn.
I enjoyed this book. It was a fairly quick read and it had a lot of characters and a lot of side plots going on but it flowed easily and I wanted to know more. I wanted to know how Samantha got this way and what she plans to do. Unfortunately, it stopped before going into all of the details but there are more books in the series to come. I'm excited to see what's next for Samantha Moon.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Concerned the region's power problems are worsening, Western state officials pleaded for the federal government Tuesday to more aggressively police wholesale electricity prices.
The state officials, at a meeting called by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to discuss the Western power crisis, could not agree on the need for wholesale price controls, however.
Officials from California, Oregon and Washington said temporary price caps are essential to correct an electricity market out of control, while other states feared such controls would hamper power production.
"Something has to be done to tame this market," Geoffrey Brown, head of the California Public Utility Commission told the three FERC commissioners.
California, whose electricity problems have unleashed soaring power prices throughout the West, urged FERC to impose an 18-month cap on wholesale electricity costs across the West to head off what are expected to be sharp price increases this summer.
But FERC Chairman Curtis Hebert remained strongly opposed to price caps, saying they would inhibit electricity generation. And he maintained his agency is "doing everything it can to assure just and reasonabled rates."
The issue of federal price intervention has split the federal commission.
Commissioner William Massey, who for weeks has called for federal price caps, said the "passion for (free) markets must be tempered with common sense."
Massey called the Western situation a "looming disaster," and said without some price intervention, electricity costs from Arizona to Washington state will soar even higher.
The FERC's third commissioner, Linda Breathitt, who has been against price caps, said she now wants to examine the question in more detail and "seriously discuss a price implementation plan."
While eight of the 11 Western states oppose price caps, a growing number of the state officials questioned why FERC wasn't more aggressive in trying to rein in prices that have soared to 10 times what they were a year ago.
The chairman of Montana's utility commission, Gary Feland, said he opposes price controls, but wanted to know why FERC was not ordering more refunds on prices that seemed clearly unreasonable.
"Montana is taking a hell of a hit" from the electricty prices, he said. "Politically we're getting beat up."
Steve Ellenberg, a utility commissioner from Wyoming, urged the federal regulators to come up with some "reasonable measure" short of a cap that reins in wholesale prices that are out of control.
Marylin Showalter, Washington state's utility commissioner, rejected the notion that price caps would inhibit power generation any more than what the uncertainty from today's soaring prices already is doing.
"In the real world in the West the ideal market doesn't exist," she said.
The unusual meeting called by the FERC comes as a California utility decided to sell its transmission lines to avoid bankruptcy and officials in the Northwest predicted a tripling of electricity rates unless power demand is cut sharply in the coming months. See related story.
The FERC, which regulates wholesale electricity sales, asked state utility regulators from the 11 states in the Western power grid to discuss ways that the federal agency might help in easing the power crunch as the heavy summer demand periods are about to begin.
Hebert, a strong free market advocate, has argued that price controls will hinder investment in new power plants and send the wrong "price signal" to both investors and consumers who need to conserve energy.
"Price caps are unworkable, unreliable and not a solution," said Hebert, a Republican whose approach generally reflects the views of President Bush.
Only three commissioners attended the meeting because of two FERC vacancies. President Bush recently named two new commissioners, both state utility regulators, who - like Hebert - are strong supporters of electricity deregulation. The two nominees, Pat Wood of Texas and Nora Brownell of Pennsylvania, have not yet been confirmed by the Senate.

This was our 10th Anniversary trip. I can't believe we've been doing a July mountain biking trip for 10 years now. We are still finding new and better trails to ride every year in Crested Butte.
This year our new trails were Doctor's Park and the 409 and a half trail. Both were excellent downhills.
Here is the video.

Happy Monday, Friends
I caved and got myself a Happy Light this week. Here I am, tricking my brain into thinking the sun came up at 6:30. I'm fake-smiling in this picture, but I'm actually optimistic that light therapy is going to help me cope with winter anxiety this year.
Here are some links:
I like cursive writing, even though I don't really use it. I never thought of the benefits for kids who learn it in school. The Case for Cursive.
Sugar Rules This seems like a sensible approach to limiting a family's sugar consumption.
What a good idea for a gift: Housewarming Jar
75+ Pantry Dinners for a Busy Week (which is every week, right?)
Need to entertain some active kids for a few minutes? Have them learn Koo Koo Kangaroo's Dinosaur Stomp. Boo's teacher said they have the kids dance to this in class, which I imagine gets some of the wiggles out.

We started off this week with a trip to the Gold Cup final, where we watched as a bewildered neutral while the U.S. won on what felt like foreign soil by Chicago's lakefront. We then held our first battle of the ultras, as Lech Poznan's video supremacy was challenged by fellow Polish supporters of Legia Warsaw.
As usual, we navel-gazed at American soccer's progress and prospects, considering the rise of the game for the youtube generation and its popularity compared to hockey. And we saw that everyone is desperate for a peak at the U.S.'s Copa America team, even if it means going behind the back of an armed guard.
Finally, we looked at the darker side of football: the death of a fan in Argentina.
