Explainer: 10 wonders in a winter wonderland
Thoughts of winter often drift to the perennial question: Is it really true that no two snowflakes are alike? The answer depends on how alike "alike" is, and the definition of a snowflake, according to Kenneth Libbrect, a physicist at the California Institute of Technology who studies ice crystals. At the molecular scale, there are so many ways molecules of water can combine to form a typical snow crystal that the chance of two being the same is close to zero, he says. At the optical microscope level, it's quite possible that two simple hexagonal crystals will appear identical. But at the level of larger, complex snowflakes — many, many crystals stuck together — the possibility of finding two that are alike is once again about nil, Libbrecht says.

The stars come out on cold, dark nights
Looking for the way to an astronomer's soul? Skip the hot summer night and head straight for the dark, icy glare of winter. That's because cold air is thin on moisture, giving the sky a crystal clarity that's untenable in summer's steamy atmosphere. Bundle up and step outside to be treated to prominent displays of the winter constellations such as Orion the Hunter, which includes three bright stars that form an unmistakable line known as Orion's Belt. Or head to Northern Canada, get cozy, and catch the northern lights, shown here.
Time indoors + kids = the flu
Got a fever, aches, pains, a sore throat and a dry cough? It must be flu season. Incidence of the sickness peaks from December to March because people spend more time indoors, which eases transmission of the virus from person to person. The virus is most commonly spread in droplets that are sent airborne by the coughs and sneezes of infected people. Recent research indicates that kids, such as the one pictured here, are key flu spreaders. That may be because they spend hours each day huddled together in crowded classrooms — and, as parents know, don't always cover their mouths when they sneeze or cough. In an effort to combat the virus, scientists now recommend that all kids, from 6 months to 18 years of age, get a flu shot.
Frigid air spawns mother-of-pearl clouds
Some of the most frigid temperatures on the planet spawn some of nature's coolest, and rarest, clouds. The nacreous clouds, sometimes called mother-of-pearl clouds for their iridescent appearance similar to the interior of mollusk shells, occur only at high polar latitudes and temperatures of less than minus 176 degrees Fahrenheit. Also known as polar stratospheric clouds, they form in the lower stratosphere — between six and nine miles high. Their iridescence stems from predawn or post-sunset light that passes through water ice crystals. This picture of nacreous clouds was taken from Australia's meteorological base in Antarctica. The clouds are also occasionally spotted in high-latitude Scandinavian countries, Northern Canada and Alaska.
Mount Washington: Worst weather in the world
The weather observatory atop Mount Washington in New Hampshire bills itself as the "Home of the World's Worst Weather." The 6,288-foot-tall, wind-scraped peak sits at the confluence of three major storm tracks. Wet, gusty, icy, foggy and generally miserable conditions are the norm. In fact, it holds a record for the highest recorded gust: 231 miles per hour, set in 1934. A team of meteorologists thrive on the nastiness, monitoring the conditions around the clock all year long. They also conduct scientific research such as monitoring cosmic radiation and ozone and studying air pollutants and climate variability.
Nor'easter: The science of the East's winter storms
Between October and April each year, the East Coast is all but guaranteed at least one bout of torrential rain, coastal flooding or a blizzard that results from a meteorological phenomenon called a nor'easter. It occurs when a northward-creeping low-pressure system in the Gulf Stream collides near the North Carolina coast with a high-pressure system of frigid, dry arctic air carried south by the jet stream. The systems' winds combine and form a potent front that travels along a northeastern track, dropping rain and snow on the mid-Atlantic states and New England. In this picture, a person walks along the New York waterfront in the midst of a powerful nor'easter.
El Nino and La Nina influence winter weather
Ever wonder why some winters are exceptionally brutal and others are awkwardly delightful? Over the past decade or so, scientists have made great strides toward answering the question with detailed studies of a phenomenon known as the El Nino/Southern Oscillation cycle. The term refers to periodic warming (El Nino) and cooling (La Nina) of the tropical Pacific Ocean, which affects weather patterns around the world. In the U.S., for example, El Nino winters feature a strong jet stream and storm track across the southern portion of the country, whereas the jet stream in La Nina years is wavelike, bringing stormier than normal conditions to the northern states. This sea surface temperature map, based on data from a NASA satellite, shows a bulge of warm water off the west coast of South America during 1997's El Nino.
Groundhogs, weather prediction and hibernation
Every year on Feb. 2, thousands of people descend on Punxsutawney, Pa., to find out if a groundhog named Phil sees his shadow. If he does, bundle up for six more weeks of cold winter weather. If he doesn't, spring is around the corner. At least that's what Groundhog Day lore dictates. Scientists put little faith in the groundhog's prognostication skill — a Canadian study shows he's right about 37 percent of the time, just above chance levels. But hibernating groundhog cousins called marmots do sometimes emerge early from their burrows. A Colorado State University professor says this has more to do with an overload of fatty acids than with shadows in February, however.
Wet winters bring life to Death Valley
About once every 100 years, powerful winter storms pound Southern California and drench the usually arid region known as Death Valley, one of the hottest and driest places on Earth. When it happens, as it did in 2005, thick or waxy coated seeds sprout, carpeting the desert with wildflowers. The flowers, in turn, attract caterpillars, which act as a lure for birds and small rodents. Snakes and foxes follow suit. The thriving food chain lasts for a few months and then shrivels under the summer heat. Dropped seeds lie in wait for the next wet winter.
Ice shelf, glaciers erode in winter
Between May and July 2008, which is winter in the Southern Hemisphere, the Wilkins Ice Shelf in Antarctica all but disintegrated. Scientists thought the deep freeze of winter would temporarily halt the ice shelf's demise. In July, an enormous ice tunnel that periodically forms on the famous Perito Moreno glacier in Argentina collapsed in front of a few off-season tourists. Scientists said both events fit into a picture of a warming world, attributed to a buildup of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere.

Public lecture explores the rise of China as a global power
September 20, 2013
A free, public lecture Oct. 16 hosted by Loyola University New Orleans will explore the rise of China as one of the world's largest national economies. Jeffrey Wasserstrom, Ph.D., of the University of California Irvine will detail the history behind the latest news headlines involving the country during the lecture, "China in Motion: A Cultural Historian's View of a Fast-Changing Land."
The event is set for 7 p.m. in Miller Hall, room 114 located on Loyola's main campus. Sponsored by the Loyola Department of History and the Biever Guest Lecture Series, the event is also held in conjunction with Tulane University's "Rise of China" lecture series.
Wasserstrom is a leading scholar of modern China and the editor of the prestigious Journal of Asian Studies. He regularly blogs for The Huffington Post and is the author of "China in the 21st Century: What Everyone Needs to Know." He also contributes commentaries and reviews to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Time and Newsweek.
According to Loyola history professor Rian Thum, Ph.D., China's global rise is not simply chatter about a faraway land. It's something of great importance to everyone, including Loyola students.
"China's influence today largely rests on the promise of even greater power in the future. It is a promise that Loyola students should take seriously, because their lives are likely to be greatly affected by interactions with China in the coming decades," Thum said. "The job market they enter, the colleagues they work with, the prices they pay for everyday goods, the Internet and apps they use, the fashions they wear, the music they listen to, the international political system they live in, the strength of the U.S. economy—all of these things are intimately bound to the fate of China."

In art heists, reality rarely matches imagination
As police in the Netherlands carefully study the security camera video of the massive art heist that netted thieves millions of dollars worth of works from the grand masters, speculation has already started about who was behind the daring operation and where the paintings might end up.
There is a habit, driven by books and movies like "The Thomas Crowne Affair" with Pierce Brosnan, or "Entrapment" with Sean Connery, to imagine that the world's art thieves are a tiny, global network of handsome, cultured, rogues clad in black turtlenecks dangling from the ends of ropes descending from skylights. We picture their buyers as a wildly rich coinsurers or corrupt Russian oligarchs who live in a shadowy world of super collectors with hidden galleries behind metal doors in the basements of their mountaintop castles.
"Actually, the world's greatest art thieves tend to be great burglars and terrible businessmen," said Robert Whitman, a retired FBI agent who worked undercover to buy back some of the greatest art treasures ever stolen. "Great thieves because they take on a very challenging environment to steal from and do it very well. Terrible businessmen because they have usually focused on the object they want to steal and how to do that. They think they will find the black market for it after they get it. It's only later they figure out that black market doesn't exist."}
To sell a piece of stolen art to the limited world of people who could afford to pay even a quarter of its worth, three basic things are required, says Whitman: "Authentication, provenance, and some proof of legal ownership." It's that last one that seems to trip up the thieves.
So what happens to the stolen masterpieces? Usually, one of three, painfully disappointing things:
One, they find a buyer who can pay real money for a real masterpiece. That is almost always an undercover agent like Whitman posing as a buyer.
Two, they try and "help" return the work to the insurance carrier for a "reward." Some countries like Great Britain now bar such deals. The UK passed a law in 2001 saying that no reward could be paid for the return of a stolen artwork without it also including an arrest. But still, Chris Marinello, director of The Art Loss Register in London, says he frequently gets calls from people in possession of stolen works who say, "we know where the paintings are, and we want this much money."
The third scenario for thieves is just to hide the stolen piece in the back of their garage until they get arrested for some other crime. "That's when we see them try to use it as a 'get out of jail free card,'" said Whitman. The thief may tell the prosecutors, "I know a guy, who knows a guy, who might be able to find that missing Rembrandt." In almost every case, that guy is the suspect they already have in handcuffs. The options aren't promising, and Marinello says the value of a stolen painting will plummet as a result. "They are worthless ... nobody is going to touch these paintings."
It seems a far cry from Robert Wagner's debonair character in the 1960s TV series "It Takes A Thief." Wagner played Alexander Mundy, a sophisticated playboy who had financed his lifestyle by a string of high-end thefts of art and jewels before taking on an undercover role for the government.
My first encounter with real-world cat burglars burst the bubble fairly quickly. In the 1970s, I was assigned to track down some of the real-life characters from the famous "Star of India" theft from New York's Museum of Natural History. The daring burglars broke in during the pre-dawn hours of Oct. 29, 1964. The largest star sapphire in the world was swiped from an alarmed glass case along with its companion gems including the "Liberty Diamond", even as the museum was patrolled by a team of security officers and maintenance workers, none of whom saw a thing.
Jack (Murph the Surf) Murphy, a handsome surfer and cat burglar from Miami who seemed to fit the image of the sophisticated thief, was the mastermind. He and a partner, Allan Kuhn, had rappelled down a rope into the Gem Room, using a glass cutter to enter the case and a squeegee to sweep the gems out the hole. The theft would seem to have reflected the glamor and intrigue of movie heists like in "The Pink Panther."
The realities were rather dull. As I would learn from John McNally, the NYPD detective who investigated the daring burglary, they didn't bypass the alarm. The battery hidden under the midnight blue velvet in the glass case had been dead for months. Murphy and Kuhn had been talking about the thefts for weeks, but actually carried it out that night on a whim because they were drunk. Their lookout, Roger Clark, posted outside with a walkie-talkie couldn't raise them on the radio, so he simply went home.
"Murph the Surf" did less than three years for the heist because of a secret deal cut with prosecutors that lead to them "finding" the "Star of India" and the stolen gems in a storage locker at a Miami bus station. Only the "Libert Diamond" remains missing. Murph went on to murder two women in the Everglades, play violin in the prison band, became a born-again Christian and now runs an organization that evangelizes to newly released inmates at halfway houses in Florida.
My next encounter with art crime came when working on a story on art theft in New York in the early 80s. Alan Gore, then the director of security for New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art and I worked on a caper to recover three missing sculptures by the French artist Gitou Knoop. Alan Gore posed as the buyer, I took on the role of the 20th century sculpture curator for The Met.
The mysterious seller of the missing sculpted heads, using the name "Sonny," had actually contacted the wrong museum. He meant to reach out to the Museum of Modern Art, but got the Met instead. We met in a hotel room in Westchester County and I pretended to expertly examine the heads as a backup team from the Greenburgh, N.Y. police and video cameras watched us through a double mirror. Sonny turned out to be the son of a mob-connected loan shark who had received the missing objects as collateral for a loan from a guy who had once been one of Frank Sinatra's accountants. For me, as a kid who'd grown up on "The Pink Panther," it was all pretty low-rent.
Even so, there are still mysteries that seem to strike us with the trappings of sophisticated robbers and well laid plans.
There was the 1990 gunpoint heist by faux cops at Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. The fake cops overpowered security guards and walked out with three Rembrandts, five Degas, a Manet and a Vermeer worth a combined $300 million. Even the $5 million reward offer has not brought a single piece to light.
In 2010, burglars in black broke a padlock and smashed a window at the National Museum of Modern Art in Paris to make off with paintings by Picasso, Matisse and other great artists. Like so many museum thefts, the thieves seemed to have the advantage of knowing that the alarm wasn't working in that section of the museum and the cameras seemed to be pointing the other way.
"In 80 to 90 percent of high end art theft, we see indicators of inside help," said retired FBI art theft expert Whitman.
The burglars made off with such works as "Dove with Green Peas" by Pablo Picasso (painted in 1911), "Pastoral" by Henri Matisse (1906), "Olive Tree near l'Estaque" by Georges Braque (1906), "Woman with Fan" by Amedeo Modigliani (1919) and "Still Life with Candlestick" by Fernand Leger (1922).
In 2010, in a daring raid that seemed to be something out of the film "The Italian Job." a small, armed team of masked robbers ran into the waterfront Swedish National Museum with a machine gun and robbed the cream of the museum's collection. They made their getaway by leaping into a speedboat and roaring off through the harbor. But like most of the cases, the men turned out to be a loose band of common criminals. Eight conspirators were found guilty and all three paintings - two Renoirs and a Rembrandt - were recovered.
But it is still unlikely that most of the great works that are still missing from the $6 billion art theft business have ever made it out of a garage or crawl space where they are stashed. The two great myths of the field seem to be the romantic image we have of the thieves and their romantic image that they can ever sell their bounty.

When it comes to job losses in this recession, March may end up being the cruelest month.
"It almost can't get any worse," says economist David Jones of DMJ Advisors.
Friday's jobs report showed that a wide range of employers eliminated a total of 663,000 jobs last month, pushing the unemployment rate to 8.5 percent, the highest since late 1983.
Though the numbers were largely in line with forecasts, they provided fresh evidence of the toll the recession has inflicted on America's workers and companies.
Still, at this relatively late stage in the year-plus long recession, economists are looking past Friday's report and to brighter days.
"I don't see how we can sustain job losses this severe, never mind intensify them," says Ken Goldstein, who follows labor and consumer trends for The Conference Board. "I don't see why or how business can sustain it."
Such thinking is evident in the unusually quick ascent in the jobless rate—from 4.4 percent in March 2007 to 8.5 percent in March. Economists expect a high of 9 to 9.5 percent this year. By comparison, during the 1973-1975 and 1980-1982 periods, the rate didn't quite double (4.6-9.0 percent, 5.6-10.8 percent.)
By most, though not all, measures, this recession has been the hardest on the labor market in the post-WWII period.

The economy has lost more than 5.1 million jobs from the peak employment level of 2007. Over 3.2 percent of the workforce has been eliminated, which is more than during the brutal Rust Belt recession of 1980-1982.
Goldstein speculates that businesses have been slashing jobs to preserve capital because of an inability to borrow amid a severe credit crunch, but those conditions are in the process of easing.
For that and several other reasons, as well as historical patterns, economists are forecasting improvement in the labor market along with the broader economy.
"Job losses tend to be very bad at the end of a recession," says Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi's chief financial economist Christopher Rupkey.
Rupkey notes that in 1991 and 2001 recessions, job losses peaked two months before the recessions technically ended. Interestingly enough, some economists are now calling for an end to this recession in April or May.
Economist Robert Brusca of FAO Economics points to a corresponding metric. Weekly initial jobless claims typically peak eight weeks before a recession ends. That points to a May ending.
"The change in claims over past weeks has been slowing," notes Brusca. "There's a good chance this is a signal we're close to a peak."
Jones says the bottom is near based on the pact that the depth of job losses tend to coincide with the biggest decline in GDP during any given recession and in this case that will be the first quarter. (The first government report on Q1 GDP won't be out until April 19; Jones is forecasting a drop of 6.7 percent vs. the 6.3 peercent one of the fourth quarter of 2008.)
Jones sees job losses "stabilizing" around 650,000 in the short term, but others—Brusca and Goldstein—are more optimistic.
"I am still convinced that by June we'll be down to 200,000," says Goldstein, who nevertheless expects the economy to shed jobs through the end of the year.
Brusca says the jobless rate is likely to peak in the next few months, not later in the year, as most expect.

"We've cut people at such a rapid rate, a lot of these people are going to go back to work pretty quickly," he explains. "You're going to get jobs put back on the book faster, with stronger growth much faster than people are expecting."
Brusca and Rupkey say job growth is much more likely to register a healthy bounce back as it did following the 70s and 80s recessions, than continue the long declines that marked the post-recessionary periods of 1991 and 2001, known as a "jobless recovery."
Complete Economics Coverage
Here's where timing and fundamentals converge.
Consumer spending has been bouncing back for a couple months, while the auto sector has just begun to show signs of life.
Government stimulus measures are also kicking in the form of tax cuts (about $8 a week for most wage earners) and lower mortgage rates which consumers are using to refinance their homes and thus translate savings on monthly payments into disposable income.
"If this spending leads to a pick up in revenue for corporations, it is something that could mitigate further job losses," says Rupkey, somewhat cautiously. There may even be a psychological effect, say economists.
Optimists might point to layoff data from outplacement company Challenger, Gray & Christmas released Wednesday. Scheduled job losses fell 19.3 percent in March to 150,411, the lowest since October, right after the sudden collapse of Lehman Brothers.
Even economists who are skeptical about any big sudden improvement in underlying labor trends say the worst is here or at least near.
"We will soon see a stemming of the losses," says Heidi Shierholz, an economist at the Economic Policy Institute. "I'm hopeful we'll see a much quicker bounce back than in 2001."

Why Yahoo is Backing Away from RSS — Has anyone noticed that Yahoo's love affair with RSS seems to be withering? In 2004 and 2005 Yahoo was all over feeds.

Australia arrests U.S. man tied to Viktor Bout
NEW YORK An associate of a notorious Russian arms dealer was arrested in Australia and charged with conspiring to buy planes so that weapons could be transported to the world's bloodiest conflicts, a U.S. prosecutor announced Thursday.
Syrian-born American Richard Ammar Chichakli was arrested Wednesday at the request of U.S. authorities on charges that he conspired with Russian arms merchant Viktor Bout and others to try to buy the planes from two U.S. companies.
His arrest was first confirmed by the Australian Fairfax Media news organization, which reported Thursday that he was arrested in Melbourne after applying for a post in the government Protective Service Office, a law enforcement agency. The news service reported that he said nothing during a Thursday hearing at the Melbourne Magistrates Court.
A lawyer for Chichakli told officials that his client had identified himself as Jehad Almustafa. Chichakli was held pending the processing of a U.S. extradition request.
Victoria state police spokeswoman Jessica Rosewarne confirmed Chichakli was caught after applying for the government post.
"He was identified as a person of interest through routine background checks as part of the application process," she said. "He had not been offered employment with Victoria police or started any training."
U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, the chief federal prosecutor in New York, said Chichakli "consorted with the world's most notorious arms trafficker in the purchase of aircraft that would be used to transport weapons to some of the world's bloodiest conflict zones, in violation of international sanctions."
Michele M. Leonhart, administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration, said the international law enforcement community has long recognized Chichakli as a key criminal facilitator in Bout's global weapons trafficking regime.
"His arrest means the world is safer and more secure," she said in a release.
Bout is a former Soviet air officer dubbed the Merchant of Death because of his 1990s-era notoriety for running a fleet of aging Soviet-era cargo planes to conflict-ridden hotspots in Africa. He also inspired the arms dealer character played by Nicolas Cage in the 2005 film "Lord of War."
Bout, convicted of conspiracy relating to the support of a Colombian terrorist organization, was sentenced in Manhattan last year to 25 years in prison but maintained he was a legitimate businessman.
An indictment against Chichakli in U.S. District Court in Manhattan and other court documents accuse Chichakli of working as a close associate of Bout since at least the mid-1990s to assemble a fleet of cargo planes capable of shipping weapons and military equipment to various parts of the world, including Africa, South America and the Middle East.
Prosecutors say the arms have helped fuel conflicts and support regimes in Afghanistan, Angola, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone and Sudan.
Over the years, Chichakli has weaved a colorful biography of his past but often repudiated his comments under the glare of law enforcement scrutiny.
He has claimed to have befriended a young Osama bin Laden during college days at Riyadh University in Saudi Arabia. He also claimed a stint in the U.S. Army, replete with intelligence training and service in the first Gulf War. And he talked openly of his work for Bout but also minimized his connections.
In a 2010 interview with The Associated Press in Moscow, Chichakli said that the U.S. conspiracy charges against Bout were "lies" and voiced fears that if he went on trial in New York the proceedings would be tainted.
"The U.S. made up this case for one simple reason," he said at the time. "To get to Viktor Bout."
Chichakli said then that he had "never done business with Viktor Bout."
The indictment accuses Chichakli and Bout of violating sanctions by arranging to buy two Boeing aircraft from U.S. companies in 2007. It says they electronically transferred more than $1.7 million through banks in New York and into bank accounts in the U.S., though the money was blocked by the U.S. Department of the Treasury before it reached the aviation companies' accounts.
The Treasury Department had imposed an asset freeze against Chichakli in April 2005 as part of larger financial sanctions aimed at the Bout network's dealings with the dictatorial regime of Liberian President Charles Taylor. The department called Chichakli, who once ran a small conglomerate of Texas-based businesses from a Dallas suburb, "Bout's U.S.-based chief financial officer."
Federal agents raided Chichakli's offices within hours of the sanctions, and the accountant quickly fled the U.S., flying to Cairo and then Moscow using frequent flier miles to help avoid arrest.
Rejoining Bout in Moscow, Chichakli sued to overturn the sanctions against him, challenging Treasury's jurisdiction, but a federal judge ruled in favor of the government in 2008.
If convicted, Chichakli could face up to 20 years in prison on each of nine counts, including conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, money laundering conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy and wire fraud.

Most companies are built around the idea of selling. But for TOMS, giving is equally important. For each product the company sells, it gives to a person in need — One for One. Since the company was founded in 2006, sales and giving activities have skyrocketed. To maintain personal connections with consumers as it continues to grow, TOMS uses Salesforce. "TOMS was built on a movement, a sense of community and caring for people in need. We grew fast and it became increasingly difficult to keep deep connections with customers beyond a grassroots level," said Hilda Fontana, Global Vice President, Digital Technologies. "We turned to Salesforce because we want to build even stronger and longer lasting relationships with customers, and connect our employees." The company started by implementing Service Cloud to help call centers in the U.S. and Europe manage phone calls and inquiries on social media. "We aren't measuring ourselves by the traditional service metrics of call volume or resolution times," explained Fontana. "We care about customer happiness, satisfaction, and long term relationships." Service Cloud helps agents see full views of customers — including their social media profiles.
"We turned to Salesforce because we want to build even stronger and longer lasting relationships with customers."
It's not just consumers that are important to TOMS. The company also needs to stay connected with its giving partners including organizations that deliver donated shoes or eye services to those in need. The company plans to add partners to its Salesforce implementation and bring every aspect of its business together. "Salesforce will give us a view of every facet of our customer interactions. It's key to continuing to grow and nurture all of our relationships and deliver on our movement and mission," said Fontana.
Ask about Salesforce products, pricing, implementation, or anything else. Our highly trained reps are standing by, ready to help.

Although it may not be as popular as the vibrant tourist's compound of Kuta and Legian or the thrilling waves of the island's south coast among tourists, Denpasar, the capital city of the Island-Province of Bali holds its own charm as a place where modernity and Balinese distinct culture blend flawlessly as a whole. The city also acts as the major hub that connects the many tourists' destinations within Bali Island. Denpasar is also the site where the Bali Arts Festival is held annually.
Designated as Bali 's capital city since 1958, replacing the former capital of Singaraja in the north, the city of Denpasar has since then grown rapidly in population and economy. Around its major square are the office of the Governor, the Bali Museum, and Bali 's first hotel, the Bali Hotel, where Hollywood filmstars Charlie Chaplin and Barbara Hutton once stayed. Also around here are major banks. While other government offices can be found at Renon.
The Puputan Square itsef is a historic landmark in Bali 's heroic history. In 1906, when Dutch forces landed on Sanur and moved to the city, the King of Badung, his Queen, children and the entire court wearing all white clothing and armed only with the keris, fiercely confronted the oncoming bullets. The royal house was entirely wiped out, except for one young prince, whose descendent was later installed as the Cokorda or King of Pemecutan.
As historic reminder of this phenomenal stance, the huge Bajra Sandhi Monument was erected at the Puputan Margarana Square, right in the heart of the city. The monument is most significant for its commemoration of the various puputans (suicidal fight to the death) of the Balinese in the struggle against Dutch colonialism: in 1908 the Raja of Klungkung together with his court also prefered death rather than surrender and shame. Inside the monument, visitors will find dioramas and other valuable collections depicting the history of the Balinese struggle against colonialism
The provincial adminsitration's seat of Bali , Denpasar is bristling with temples, palaces, and at the eastern part is the popular lay back beach of Sanur. Although is a center for government and businesses, the city does not cramped itself with lines of tall buildings or modern architectures. Instead, many of the government offices, banks, businesses offices, shopping malls, and others retain the distinct personality of Balinese culture.
Denpasar is by far the largest city in Bali but still manages to retain a small town ambience despite heavy traffic congestion on its roads. The city is generally made up of tightly knit villages complete with historic Hindu temples surrounded by communal family compounds. It offers the most accessible way to see real, uncompromising Balinese life. Denpasar is also Bali 's best spot for shopping and features everything from lively street markets, vast department stores and more than its fair share of trendy boutiques. Expect the cheapest prices in Bali for almost everything as most stores cater to locals.
The capital city offers the best way to explore the island complete insight through the Bali Provincial Museum (Museum Negeri Provinsi Bali ) or simply known as Bali Museum. As Bali 's flagship museum, it offers an informative introduction to almost all things in Bali through a vast array of cultural and historic artifacts from across the island. It is housed in four traditional pavilions set around a walled compound, right in the heart of town. Weaponry, utensils, precious jewelry, Balinese textiles, religious artifacts, traditional costumes and masks, and several artworks are among some of the collection displayed in the museum.
Located in the eastern suburbs, the Taman Werdhi Budaya or Bali Art's Center is Bali 's foremost cultural centre. It comprises a large exhibition space, art museum, concert hall and amphitheatre and an adjoining school for the performing arts. There are permanent displays of Balinese art covering all styles made famous in nearby Ubud, woodcarvings and traditional costumes. Visitors can experience dance and music performances in two open-air amphitheaters with modern lighting. Dances are also regularly staged for the public, including works integrating modern Balinese choreography. The unique Kecak performance staged every night at 6.30 pm to 7.30 pm.
As any place in Bali , Denpasar is also decorated with many Hindu Temples. Among some of the renowned temples in Denpasar are the Pura Agung Jagatnata (adjacent to the Bali Museum), Pura Maospahit, and Puri Pemecutan.

You don't have to wait to spend your power points and your PL automatically increases when you power point total reaches the minimum for that PL; you don't have to "spend" power points to increase your PL.

Note On Digital Photos
By 2007/2008, as I inched my way annalistically/incrementally to the age of 65 and as my last particular photo album was becoming filled to its maximum intake, people in my world were beginning to send digital photos, enough to begin to fill this and future photograph albums to overflowing. Those who could afford it, and who had the interest, in the first years of this new millennium, had begun to make videos of their family/personal lives; still others had telephones with visual images of the person they were talking to. There were large screen TVs, computer monitors, CDs, mini-discs, indeed, a cornucopia of new technology that was making the old world of the photograph in an album, the idea of keeping even the digital photo in an album, somewhat passe even declasse.1
Time would tell just how I would respond to this change, this diversification, this amplification, in the technology of photography that had insensibly altered the rationale for the very existence of the old photo album. Photo albums had been delighting the eye, had been part of my memorabilia, for well nigh 60 years. As I write these words, fifteen months short of my 65th birthday, I have decided to continue to put digitals photo in this and future albums on the same basis as those photos from cameras that I and my family have been doing since early in the 20th century.-Ron Price, 18 April 2008.
(1one rarely sees this word, declasse--acute accent on the last e--in literature these days, but it seems applicable here; it means lowered in social significance, relevance and standing.)

While Jennifer Nettles prepares for the birth of her first child, Sugarland's Kristian Bush continues to perform. And he just sold out two solo performances over the Thanksgiving weekend in Georgia. A third show has now been added for Monday, Nov. 26.
The shows, dubbed Kristian Bush and Friends, will feature special guests Ellis Paul, Canaan Smith, and Patrick Davis, and take place at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, Georgia.
Eddie's Attic, where Kristian got his start, has hosted solo shows by Bush the previous two Thanksgiving holiday weekends, but due to demand, the first time a third show has been added.
Check out footage of Kristian performing "Genevieve" live at Eddie's Attic during his Thanksgiving 2011 solo show:

Let's face it, gentle readers, if I am going to be corrected -- something that happens to all of us from time to time -- it really helps to be corrected by one of the best in the business. I am referring to Pamela Constable of the foreign desk at The Washington Post. To understand the context for my correction, let's start with the following reference in my post that ran with the headline, "Chen Guangcheng, generic human-rights activist," which focused on the fact that Chen is more than a generic activist who is backed by a generic "activist network."
I stand by that emphasis in the piece. However, I also wrote:
This generic activist, you see, is actually a pro-life activist, the kind of Christian activist who sees China's often brutal one-child policy as a violation of human rights as well as religious liberty. The abortion angle in this story has begun to show up in some mainstream media reports. ...
That's close, but not accurate. It appears that we can strike the word "Christian."
However, before we move on let me note that a reader who is active in human-rights issues wrote in with some interesting information related to this issue. He pointed GetReligion readers toward an article in the Far Eastern Economic Review -- headline, "Faith and Law In China" (.pdf) -- which argues that the "weiquan movement" for human rights, in which Chen is a highly visible leader, includes many Chinese Christians and draws much of its support from Christian groups and networks.
It is also true that Chen's most public supporter, Bob Fu, is a Christian pastor and leader in a Christian network that is at the forefront of support for the blind Chinese activist. I mentioned Fu and his network in my post, because of an op-ed piece he wrote for the Post.
Now, Constable has headed down to West Texas in order to contribute a timely news feature about Fu that contains tons of information shedding light on the work of pro-Chen activists. Right up top readers learn:
In the past 72 hours, Fu has become an international media figure at the center of the most sensational human rights crisis in China in a decade. It erupted when blind lawyer and dissident Chen Guangcheng fled house arrest and took refuge in the U.S. Embassy in Beijing -- just as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was arriving this week for critical and wide-ranging talks with Chinese officials.
Fu, who helped engineer Chen's escape and describes himself as Chen's "ambassador," has since been besieged with media calls, rumors and tips in half a dozen languages. At 6 a.m. Wednesday, American officials called Fu from Beijing to inform him that Chen had made a deal with Chinese authorities -- a deal that appeared to quickly unravel. Now, Fu is rushing to Washington to testify on Capitol Hill about Chen's unfolding case.
"Bob is our hero, but before this we were mostly below the radar. Now everyone in the world is trying to reach him," said Celia Harris, the white-haired secretary at China Aid. Like many local supporters, she is a member of the large Christian community church in Midland that helped Fu settle when he fled China in 1997. He is now a pastor there as well as the founder and director of China Aid.
As you would expect from a reporter who has long dug into the religion angles of her stories, Constable quickly notes the role of faith in the very familiar outline of Fu's life and work. He became a Christian after the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989, was arrested in 1996 while teaching in secret Bible schools and fled to the United States when his wife failed to obtain a pregnancy permit (and thus faced a forced abortion).
This brings us to a crucial piece of information, which I assume comes directly from Fu, a highly authoritative source on such matters.
Fu was born in the same rural province as Chen, who is not Christian but who has long been a passionate and outspoken opponent of Beijing's policy of forced sterilizations and abortions. The issue is at the heart of U.S. religious groups' criticism of China.
"I always felt a natural connection with Chen," said Fu, speaking in short snatches between a barrage of phone calls late Tuesday. The queries intensified as midnight approached and rumors swirled across the Internet that Chen was about to make a deal. "I chose a peaceful life in the United States, but he believed the system in China could change, and he wanted to stay and be part of it, even after suffering so much. He believes that a million ants can move a hill. He is a symbol of courage for all of us."
By all means, read on. It's good to know that Fu, like Chen, is not a simplistic China basher. He is skeptical, yet also hopeful. At the moment, however, he greatly fears for the safety of Chen, his family and the network of Chinese activist -- Christians and others -- who have risked so much to help Chen.
As the tense negotiations continue, here is a key element for which to watch in future coverage. Chinese authorities tend to define "religious freedom" in terms of what happens in churches. Clearly, the religious opponents of the one-child policies have a much broader view, one in which religious freedom is part of a larger package of human rights that must be defended.
Often, the kinds of people who work in the U.S. State Department (and not just in the current administration) tend to view this stance as rather idealistic, if not naive.
Stay tuned. Meanwhile, my thanks to Constable and the Post for her fine story.

NTSB Recommends Ban On Texting [VIDEO]
A story released today says that the National Transportation Safety Board is recommending that states ban the use of cell phones and all other electronic devices while driving. There would be an exception to this ban in only emergency situations.
The NTSB doesn't have authority to impose regulations, but its recommendations do carry significant weight with state lawmakers.
The boards recommendations come ofter determining that the collision in a deadly highway accident in Missouri in 2010 was caused by a 19 year old driver who had sent or received eleven text messages in the eleven minutes prior to the accident. That driver and a fifteen year old student on a school bus were killed in the accident.
Check out this video from the Today Show where they show video of accidents being caused by people texting while driving. Would you be in favor of this becoming a state law in Texas?

Castle, Sweet Castle
Built for German nobility, these homes offer promise of a fairy-tale life—but can cost a king's ransom
Natural, hand-cut stone construction, 14-foot vaulted ceilings, expansive gardens. And your very own drawbridge.
It seems the thing of fairy tales—owning a private castle. And in Germany, there are plenty of them to be had. Germany's long history as a number of fractured principalities, each with its own noble residences, has left the country with more than 5,000 castles. About 20 to 40 of those come onto the market each year. At the same time, Germany has a relatively stable economy where real-estate values have continued...

Pipeline of Future Finance Leaders Running Dry: Global Survey
Finance executives at large companies are increasingly concerned about their ability to recruit, retain and develop talent in their finance organizations. According to Deloitte's 2013 Global Finance Talent Survey, 39% of finance executives state that today they are either "barely able" or "unable" to meet the demand for the talent required to run their organizations. Looking forward, 33% forecast the same problem in three years' time.
The recent survey, which polled 312 CFOs and other executives in finance departments in large companies globally, also found that finance leaders are concerned about identifying their future replacement within their organizations, with many suggesting that the leadership pipeline is poor. Only 40% of finance leaders reported finding highly skilled finance leaders internally in the last three years, with the problem particularly acute in Asia and Europe. These findings are consistent with the most recent Deloitte CFO Signals™ survey in which 23% of CFOs view talent availability as a top impediment to growth. And in previous surveys, finding and retaining finance talent has been a persistent concern among CFOs.
The concern over securing and developing talent reflects the evolving role of the modern finance organization, in which executives are expected to be strategists and partner with leaders of other parts of the business to drive growth. The critical role of talent in this equation is reflected by the 34% of respondents who state that talent management is now their top concern in their overall finance strategy. Of the remainder, almost all describe talent as "somewhat important" to their finance strategy.
"The requirements of the modern finance organization have shifted. Finance should now serve as more than just a steward of a company's resources and also help chart a path to growth in partnership with other parts of the business," notes Rich Rorem, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and Finance Transformation leader for the Americas. "Business leaders are looking to their finance organization for a deeper, more hands-on, collaborative approach," he says. "While CFOs and other finance executives understand this, many of them lead finance organizations that simply weren't built for that purpose."
"Finance organizations haven't historically hired talent or built themselves to meet this demand for partnering with other areas of the company to drive growth. Consequently, there is a significant talent gap developing, which CFOs are now trying to address," Mr. Rorem adds.
The majority of finance executives (72%) state that they have a strategy in place to recruit and develop the talent they need. However, according to the survey findings, in many cases talent development is not aligned with the future talent needs required in finance organizations. For example, finance executives list the ability to communicate effectively with senior management as the number one requirement for career progression in the finance organization.
Additionally, the opportunity to learn and deploy this skill ranks only fifth in availability in finance organizations.
Barriers to Recruiting and Retaining Finance Talent
The main barriers to recruiting talent to finance organizations often come from the notion that finance cannot offer sufficient career development or rewards. Finance executives list the top three barriers to successful recruitment as the belief that there are insufficient opportunities for development and career advancement; that potential strong recruits continue to be lured by managerial or non-finance positions instead; and the fact that compensation and benefits are not competitive.
"The perception of a career in the finance organization is out of step with the modern reality," says Tina Witney, director, Deloitte Consulting LLP and U.S. Human Capital leader, Finance Transformation. "High-priority roles in finance such as financial planning and analysis require an in-depth understanding of the business, strong relationships with peers across the company and many other capabilities not associated with the traditional finance skill set." According to Ms. Witney, the breadth of skills that are needed in finance is one of the reasons why finance leaders are increasingly recruiting internally from business strategy, operations, marketing analysis and other areas.
"Nevertheless, the outdated view of the finance function clearly remains given the problems in recruiting and retaining talent," Ms. Witney adds. "Finance is still seen by external recruits as a scorekeeper's role, rather than a true partner in developing and executing business strategy. Finance executives—who ranked the marketing of a career in finance only eighth out of nine components for their talent strategy—should address this quickly."
Additional Findings from the Global Finance Talent Survey
Financial planning and analysis skills in-demand—38% of finance executives list financial planning and analysis as an area where they have difficulty identifying qualified, high-potential talent, the most of any skill area. Internal control and audit (31%) and tax (28%) rank second and third.
Partnering, strategic planning key today—Finance executives rank communicating with senior management; partnering with business units; participation in strategic planning; leading special projects; and leading/participating in financial systems implementation as the top five essential experiences needed for career progression in finance today. (See the article, Frank Calderoni, EVP and CFO, Cisco Systems: Evolving Finance into a Strategic Partner, for his perspective on transforming Cisco's finance organization to better align with the business strategy, provide greater support for decision-making and shift finance's role to that of a strategic business partner.)
Increase in internal recruitment channels—There has been a sharp increase in recruiting finance talent via internal job boards, demonstrating the wider net finance executives are casting internally. Nearly half (47%) of finance executives state that they are now recruiting via this method, an increase from 31% in 2007.
Increase in external recruitment channels—There has also been an increase in recruiting finance talent via a range of external tactics. The use of search firms has increased from 45% in 2007 to 51% today, while campus recruiting has increased to 34% from 27% in 2007. Nearly one-third (32%) of finance executives state that they use online job boards and social media for recruitment.
