Publishers Weekly
Lakoff, a cognitive scientist and linguist at Berkeley, believes he knows why conservatives have been so successful in recent years and how progressives like himself can beat them at their own game. This slim book presents a simple, accessible overview of his theory of "moral politics" and a call to action for Democrats mourning November's election results. Lakoff's persuasive argument focuses on two ideas: what he calls "framing," and the opposition of liberals' and conservatives' concepts of the family. Conservatives, he says, have easily framed tax cuts as "tax relief" because of widespread, preexisting views of taxes as burdensome, and liberals have had little success conveying the idea that taxes are a social responsibility. In Lakoff's view, conservatives adhere to a "strict father" model of family, in contrast to liberals' "nurturant parent" view, and he sees this difference as the key to understanding most of the two sides' clashes. His writing is clear and succinct, and he illuminates his theories through easy-to-follow examples from current politics. Although the book has been updated since the election, many of its sections were originally written long beforehand, so some comments are outdated (at one point Lakoff wonders, for example, whether George Bush's support of the gay marriage amendment will help him keep the White House). However, the process of regaining power may be a long one for Democrats, and Lakoff's insights into how to deal with conservatives and appeal to the general public are bound to light a fire under many progressives.

One of our favorite activities in Spain is to visit the local market, a lively place where you can find the freshest food anywhere. We remember a visit when we saw a woman carefully crack freshly harvested olives with a mallet, then toss them in a brine with herbs and fresh garlic.
For years we have searched for an olive that tasted this fresh, this full of flavor. First we found a supplier with a mild Verdial version that has become a customer favorite (product OL-26.) Now we offer an unpasteurized, fresh version that comes closest to that full flavored freshly-cracked taste.
The difference is in the olive and the freshness. Aloreña olives have a meaty texture and full flavor that is only enhanced by the garlic and herbs. Once the olives are marinated, the normal next step is to pasteurize them to give them a longer shelf life.
The problem with pasteurization is that heat is involved, which can sap the taste out of the olive and make it softer. These olives have never been pasteurized so that fresh, dynamic flavor and firm texture is there to be enjoyed. Just like the olives we enjoyed on that trip to Spain!
Alorena olives, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, red pepper, salt, rosemary and aromatic herbs.

About SAP HANA in Relative Terms
Curt Monash reports from his briefings with SAP:
SAP HANA has what sounds like a natural disk-based persistence strategy — logs, snapshots, and so on. SAP says that this is synchronous enough to give ACID compliance. For some hardware partners, those "disks" are actually Fusion I/O cards.
I rarely encounter such relative terms used to describe a database. Can I have a database that stores a good amount of my data at a superb speed using a bizarre cluster persistence strategy?
As a side note, according to what I'm reading around, SAP is betting a lot on HANA and sees in it the solution that will make SAP the second largest database vendor.

Galapagos wildlife captures travelers' curiosity

MIDDLE LEFT: Fur seals are plentiful in the Puerto Egas grotto that is a collapsed lava tue in the Galapagos Islands. TOP LEFT: Snorkeling from the beaches offers encounters with fish and fur seals in the Galapagos Islands. TOP RIGHT: A curious young booby checks out the camera in the Galapagos Islands. MIDDLE RIGHT: A Galapagos lava lizard peers over the top of a porous lava rock on Santa Cruz in the Galapagos Islands. BOTTOM RIGHT: The setting sun fills the sky with color over Fernandina in the Galapagos Islands. BOTTOM ACROSS: Ranch hand Josep Penafiel Pelaez looks for trails on Rancho Mariposa on Santa Cruz in the Galapagos Islands. (Mary Ellen Botter/Dallas Morning News/MCT)
They swim. They fly. They lounge. They lumber. Sometimes, they do more. Naturalist Klaus Fielsch squats beside the trail along Tower Island's cliff top. He picks up a twig, twiddling it as he tells his listeners how seabirds teach themselves to fish. They toss and catch sticks to practice speed and aim, he says.
The twig's movement catches the attention of a young Nazca booby nearby.
"What's this? A game?" the football-sized seabird seems to be thinking. It web-foots closer.
Klaus sees the approach and gently flicks the stick toward the bird.
The booby moves nearer. Big, pale eyes target the twig. An even bigger, pastel beak snatches it, and the triumphant bird turns and waddles away, playing pitch-and-catch with its prize, its flat feet slapping the bare ground.
Such interaction is rare anywhere, but odds leap in the Galapagos where wildlife, ready for its close-up, generally goes about its business as if humans aren't there. Even the eldest human watcher becomes a child of wonder in this cradle of life nuzzling the equator in the Pacific Ocean.
Although sailors with their own oceangoing boats, and backpackers going cheap, can dip into the islands, strict rules set by Galapagos National Park, which controls 97 percent of the land (a huge marine reserve surrounds it) make independent travel impractical. Most visitors choose cruise tours on which permits, certified guides and fees are arranged by the operator.
Taking the organized option, I've joined a small group of journalists aboard the 40-passenger ship Isabela II of Metropolitan Touring, an Ecuadorean company that pioneered tourism in the Galapagos more than 40 years ago. Metropolitan books its North American travelers through Dallas-based Adventure Associates. Our seven-day trip will visit six of the 13 major islands in the archipelago.
After a two-hour flight from the mainland, our passenger jet lands at the airstrip on Baltra, first built in World War II by Americans protecting the Panama Canal. Barely onto the tarmac, birders have their first sighting: a small ground finch. It's one of 13 subspecies of finches found in the Galapagos and named after Charles Darwin, whose visit in 1835 added fuel to evolutionists' theories. The bird is so near that some cameras can't focus on it.
It's our first experience with what sets the Galapagos apart from most other wildlife hot spots: proximity. You see animals thrillingly close. Many seem fearless, unmoved by the presence of humans.
"Here, you're just another critter, a fellow inhabitant of the planet," says Fielsch, expedition manager for Metropolitan Touring.
He calls the failure to flee a "neurological flaw" developed over generations by species with few natural predators in the islands and decades of protection from harm by humans. "They should fear anything they don't know," he says, but they don't.
Shuttle buses take us across hardscrabble Baltra, where Jerusalem thorn trees thrive, but not much else. Small ferries, their roofs piled with travelers' luggage, carry us over the narrow Canal de Itabaca to Santa Cruz Island, the archipelago's most inhabited.
Arid lowlands give way to cooler central highlands. Tree daisies tower, and moss drapes and sprouts on moist branches. We turn off the slender highway for a short hike on Rancho Mariposa, where tall grasses provide a banquet for wild giant tortoises. Following lanes that their roaming, grazing bulk has mashed in the vegetation, we find a domed shell with the occupant at home. Its legs are the width of small trees. Ever so slowly, a head emerges from the bony hut to give us a reptilian once-over.
A barn owl preening on a rock shelf in a semi-dark lava tube on Mariposa provides an environmental lesson. A fingernail-size feather floats down to visitors in the cave. I pick it up, admiring its beautiful design.
"You can't keep it," says Isabela II expedition leader Carlos King, who has joined us for the walk and seems to be reading my mind.
It would be an exquisite souvenir, but guides carefully guard against such things' being transported among islands. Each landfall is a unique environment, and matter from one should not be allowed to reach another and set off unnatural change.
Understanding, I reluctantly let the feather fall to the tube's floor.

Select Quantities
750ml Bottle $779.88(Reg:$797.89)
Case of 12
"The greatest Cantenac Brown I have ever tasted, the 2010 is one for the ages. Dense purple, with an extraordinary nose of sweet forest floor, blackberry jam, pen ink and graphite, this wine soars from the glass, giving it an aromatic dimension and intensity I have never seen from this estate. The tannins are present, as they are in most Cantenac Browns, but the wine's sweetness, broad, skyscraper-like mouthfeel, dense, purple color and spectacular length (close to a minute) make this a giant classic and a fabulous sleeper of the vintage that still remains under-priced, considering how great its potential may be. This is a wine for those with cold cellars and youthful DNA. It is going to need at least a decade of cellaring and should last for 20-40 years. A classic!" -Robert Parker

Gail Levine is a master mistress at being able to twist and reinvent fairy tales to make a supremely entertaining read appropriate for children. Aza exists in the same universe as "Ella Enchanted". She is an excellent singer, but far out of step with the culture's beauty standards. When she is asked/ blackmailed by the new princess (who cannot sing) to sing for her, Aza does her best. But when she is found out, keeping her head attached to her neck is going to take some doing. Somewhat based on the story of Snow White, audiences will enjoy this story of prejudice, choice and redemption. posted Aug 13, 2014 at 5:29PM

Moist Van Lipwig is a con man that has been going by the name of Albert Spangler. He's also going to be hanged by the name Albert Spangler. But when Lord Ventanari offers him the choice to run the antiquated, run-down post office civic duty (and a desire to keep breathing) compels Moist to leap at the opportunity. Of course, he didn't know that the Post office has been reduced to 2 people. And that there are letters everywhere. And Vetanari has given him a golem as a parole officer. And that the new clacks are trying to permanently disable the old post office. Will charm, a smooth tongue, and stamps be enough to save the day? Fans of Terry Pratchett will enjoy this story of the Discworld immensely, and new people will be brought into a fascinating world of magic and mayhem. posted Apr 28, 2014 at 9:26AM

Stanley Yelnats the Third is in trouble and it's all the fault of his no-good, pig-stealing great-great grandfather. He has to dig holes in the desert for "his character" for stealing shoes that fell out of the sky. Also, this story involves gypsy curses, Kissing Kate Barlow, and stinky sneakers. Confused? Any plot synopsis would be confusing, but the book itself is one of those rare, but fantastic books that combines lots of plot elements together in a way that is facsinating, unexpected, and tight. No detail is actually wasted, the characters and the story suck you right in, and the ending is emotionally satisfying. Great for children, or the child-at-heart. posted Jul 12, 2014 at 1:11PM

My favorite Sarah Dessen book! Her books are always great in that they're romantic and yet more about the character development and dealing with tough situations than romantic entanglements. In this book, middle child Annabel deals with the sudden loss of her popularity from mysterious circumstances over the summer. (Don't worry, of course she reveals it later!) She gains an enigmatic new friend, the hulking Owen, who loves music above all else. Annabel has a habit of avoiding difficult things and lies often to avoid confrontation and to make people happy (or so she tells herself). Owen, on the other hand, always tells the truth. Always. So with his help Annabel learns to overcome what happened to her over the summer that caused her to lose everything and in the end gains so much more. posted Jun 10, 2014 at 6:10PM
|Lamb : the gospel according to Biff, Christ's childhood pal /
by Moore, Christopher, 1957-
"If you have come to these pages for laughter, may you find it. If you are here to be offended, may your ire rise and your blood boil. If you seek an adventure, may this song sing you away to blissful escape. If you need to test or confirm your beliefs, may you reach comfortable conclusions. All books reveal perfection, by what they are or what they are not. May you find that which you seek, in these pages or outside them. May you find perfection, and know it by name." This is how Christopher Moore begins Lamb, foreshadowing the book ahead. It follows Levi Bar Alpheas, called Biff, as he learns and grows with Joshua bar Joseph, called the Christ. Sometimes pensive, sometimes baffling, but always hilarious, Lamb is perfect for people just looking to laugh OR looking to test their faith. posted Jan 7, 2014 at 2:00PM
|Let's pretend this never happened : (a mostly true memoir) /
by Lawson, Jenny, 1979-
This book is laugh-out loud hilarious. Who among us have never had to deal with a turkey following us to school? Who hasn't worried about scaring off a new boyfriend because your father has dropped a mountain lion in his lap? Even if you haven't had the same experiences as our author, you can still laugh and sympathize with her joys and sorrows. I highly recommend for a good, snarky time. posted Jan 24, 2014 at 4:38PM
|Moon called /
by Briggs, Patricia
I'm on the fence on this one. On the one hand, I really like the main character, Mercy Thompson. She is kind, compassionate, dedicated, smart and more importantly than some other characters I could mention in other series *cough Dresden cough* she actually knows when NOT to taunt the all-powerful vampire. Patricia Briggs accomplishes the fundamental goal of all writers- I wanted to turn the page to see what would happen next. I was invested in the characters. The stakes seemed real, and I even found myself caring about some of the tertiary characters and interested in their backstory. But, the story is a little forgettable. So of the story points (all female werewolves hate me because I can have children and they can't!) were tired and obnoxious. It wasn't so bad that I lost interest, and I am excited to read the book, but it did grate me the wrong way from time to time. Read it, and make your own decision- content warning for sexual assualt, death, and kidnapping. posted Jun 26, 2014 at 5:20PM
|Nightlife /
by Thurman, Rob.
If you like the show Supernatural, you might like this series. It has the same premise (2 brothers off on their own fighting supernatural monsters) but has its own little quirks to differentiate itself. Cal, the youngest brother, is sarcastic and angsty yet extremely loveable. His mother bred (yeah that's the best word for it, trust me) with these terrifying creatures called the Auphe so poor Cal is half monster and constantly beats himself up about it. Niko, the eldest brother, is smart, disciplined, and lethal. Together they roam New York City looking for jobs and somehow always end up in a bigger mystery. There are some great side characters as well, but I won't spoil their appearances. Definitely worth checking out, if only for Cal's hilariously snarky narration. posted Jun 13, 2014 at 9:47AM
|Size 12 is not fat : a Heather Wells mystery /
by Cabot, Meg
"The average American woman is a size 12" insists our protagonist, Heather Wells, to defend her own size. A former pop star, Heather Wells's mother rushed off with her money and her dad's in jail. She's living with her ex-fiancée's brother, and working semi-incognito at a dorm in downtown New York. Life isn't that great, but it gets a whole lot worse when someone turns up dead at her dorm. Will Heather be able to figure out who the murderer is? Smart, and relatable, you will enjoy following along with Heather Wells as she deals with the every-day bizarre. The book is always witty, and at turns laugh out loud funny and edge of the seat tense. A quick read, but well worth the time. WARNING This is book one is a series of books. You may find yourself wanting to plow through the other 5. posted Jan 4, 2014 at 12:24PM
|Soulless /
by Carriger, Gail
Fantasy, steampunk, and London all come together in this, the first book in the Parasol Protectorate. In a world of vampires and werewolves, Alexia Tarabotti is a preternatural Soulless- a being who can turn supernatural human again as long as she is touching them. When she accidentally kills a vampire, she is thrust into the middle of an investagation (for Queen and Country, of course) with gruff but handsome Lord Maccoon, who just happens to be the local werewolf Alpha. Together they run afoul of mad scientists, vampire hives, and bad fashion. Can Alexia find who's making these rogue vampires without falling a foul of fiendish fashionistas? Will Lord Maccoon and Alexia realize their love when everyone else (in book and out) realized it on page 12? And can Alexia convince her friend Ivy Hisselpenny to give up her fondness for hideous hats? Read on to discover. If you like Pythonesque humor and steampunk, this is a book for you. posted Jan 6, 2014 at 4:13PM

|Storm front /
by Butcher, Jim, 1971-
Not going to lie to you, this book is awful. It's one of Butcher's earlier works, and it shows. The story is a little clunky, the main character, Harry Dresden, is unlikeable and the rest of the characters come off as one-note. The only exceptions are Mister, Dresden's cat whom cat owners will very well recognize, and Bob, a spirit of intellect with a taste for lusty novels trapped in a skull. But if you hold on this series gets better fast. The Dresden Files series ends up being one of the most engaging works of urban fantasy of all time. A cross between a film noir PI and Merlin, Dresden fights the creatures that go bump in the night for very little pay and for a lot of heartache. Later books get fun, fast-paced, and very addicting. This book unfortunately just needs to be read to get an introduction to the world and the characters. But get past this and enjoy fireballs galore. posted Jan 9, 2014 at 9:03PM
|Sunset Boulevard [videorecording] /
Sunset Boulevard is not a book. But it is available at the library, so I feel it is worthy to add to the list. Sunset Boulevard is about Joe Gillis, a man who goes to Hollywood trying to make it as a screen-writer. We start out with some people trying to reposess his car. To escape them, he pulls into the driveway of a crumbling mansion to find the equally crumbling Norma Desmond, star of the silent films. She coerces Joe to edit a film she has written, which promises to be her grand return to film. Joe, short on cash and options, stays on. The story is both darkly comical and deeply tragic. Norma Desmond has cracked in her stardom and then her isolation. Joe struggles underneath the weight of Hollywood indifference. Great movie, classic of the time and well worth watching. posted Apr 17, 2014 at 6:49PM
|The Eyre affair : a novel /
by Fforde, Jasper.
I don't like postmodern, highly metatextual novels. The occasional lampshade* is fine, but yell at me "This is a novel! See how this is a novel!" can get grating. However, there are always exceptions, and this book marks a great exception. Follow Thursday Next, a SpecOps officer in a world that is close, but not quite, entirely unlike ours, as she maintains the intengrity of great literature and thwarts the evil Archades Hades. Hades has gotten his hands on the Prose Portal (and Thursday's aunt and uncle) and is threatning to go into novels and start killing main characters if people do not bow to his demands. Will Jane Eyre be safe? Is the Prose Portal safe in anyone's hands? And should England still be fighting Russia in the Crimera? Read to find out. Fans of literature and history will find the in-jokes hilarious. Keep a sharp watch for fun Easter eggs!** *http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LampshadeHanging **http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EasterEgg posted Apr 28, 2014 at 9:16AM
|The fault in our stars /
by Green, John, 1977-
Are you a fan of bawling your eyes out? Then this is absolutely a book for you. The Fault in our Stars follows 16-year-old Hazel Grace and her trials and tribulations as a cancer patient. She meets cute Augustus, who lost his leg to cancer, and the two fall in love. Despite being about teenagers with cancer, and it never flinches away from how much it sucks for our protaganist to have cancer, the book is surprisingly upbeat. Hazel Grace has a wry, sometimes sarcastic sense of humor and the book never feels treacly or preachy. posted Jan 29, 2014 at 7:59PM

by Adams, Douglas, 1952-2001
Arthur Dent is having a bad day. He woke up, groggy like normal, and his brain registered "yellow". A few minutes later, and a good cup of tea, and he realized that "yellow" was a bunch of bulldozers come to destroy his house to build a bypass. From that pleasant start, his life gets worse. Oh, and then then the planet gets blown up by interstellar bureaucrats called the Vogons. The first book in a five novel trilogy, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is probably the funniest thing science fiction has to offer. Offering a sharp look at the universe Adams shows us a fun-house mirror of our own little planet swirling about in an unfashionable arm of the Milky Way. Read and enjoy! posted May 17, 2014 at 4:54PM
|The Mists of Avalon /
by Bradley, Marion Zimmer.
An awesomely amazing epic book about the world of King Arthur. Mostly told from the female point of view, this takes the Arthurian tale and puts a different perspective on things. Clashes of family, religion, tradition, progress, temptation, and fate all add up to a story way better than what you remembered as a kid. And that was already a pretty good story to begin with. :) posted Jun 3, 2014 at 5:49PM
|The princess diaries /
by Cabot, Meg
This is a series I own and reread over and over again. The books are way better than the movies. If you've read the books then you know how ridiculous it is to have Julie Andrews play Grandmere. Because Grandmere is scary, not adorable. Or maybe you find her scariness adorable, I don't know. The movies are a whole other animal. And Mia even discusses the movies in the books! Anyway, I relate so much to Mia that I'm pretty sure I am her (without the princess thing) and Michael Moscovitz is pretty much my ideal guy so I gush over this series often. The geeky references, the realistic teenage drama (as opposed to a series like Gossip Girl), and the numerous wacky but loveable side characters all add up to a series that is my reading comfort food. I know it's fiction but man I swear these guys are just normal people out there somewhere and I'm on a mission to meet them. posted Jun 30, 2014 at 10:50AM

Sometimes it's less than forthright, but the machine is never wrong. Would you look? How would this change society? Could we handle it?

by Brooks, Max.
If you like books that keep you up at night, this is definitely a book you'll want to pick up. The world has been overwhelmed by a plague that causes dead bodies to re-animate and attack. Only direct shots to the head can kill them, and a single bite causes infection. Humanity barely survived, and our narrator is tasked with writing up how it happened in hopes of preventing it from happening again. Told in a semi-documentary style, our narrator travels across the globe, from China to the United States, Ecuador to the Artic, telling the tale of how the virus started and spread. The zombies are described in vivid detail but the real scare is the all-too-plausible failures of multiple governments and human beings. posted Dec 30, 2013 at 2:55PM

There are many reasons to choose to holiday to the Amalfi Coast. The beautiful beaches, amazing views, fabulous restaurants and important architectural and historical sites are just a few examples. Your holiday rental home in the Amalfi Coast will provide a home base for your adventures that has all of the comforts of home.
There is so much to do whilst on holiday to the Amalfi Coast, but many choose to spend their time relaxing on the beach and dining at one of the many wonderful nearby restaurants. If you are up for a bit of adventure, consider taking a hike. There are many good spots to do so, such as the Valley of the Mills. Whilst hiking, you will be rewarded by getting to see a picturesque waterfall as well as the remains of a paper mill from the 1700's. The Amalfi Drive is 48 km of coastal road that has oft been featured in movies. The drive provides amazing views, but its twists and turns are not for the faint of heart. Many visitors hop on a boat to visit the quiet Santa Croce Beach. Relax on the sand and enjoy the food available at the restaurants at this fabulous and secluded spot.
Whilst visiting the Amalfi Coast, there are many day trips that you can take. Consider taking a chair lift to the top of Monte Solar, the highest point in Capri, where you will be rewarded with amazing views of the entire region.
A visit to Pompeii is a must for anyone who has not visited these ancient ruins. Pompeii is part of Vesuvius National Park, Pompeii has the distinction of being a World Heritage Site.
The weather in the Amalfi Coast is what one would expect from the Mediterranean. The summers are quite warm with average high temperatures of 29 degrees. The summer is also the most popular time to visit, but some avoid the Amalfi Coast during this time to avoid both the crowds and the heat. Spring offers less crowds and more comfortable temperatures with average highs of about 14-15 degrees. There is some rainfall throughout the year, with the most falling during the winter when the average rainfall is over 125 mm per month.
Most travellers arrive by boat to the Amalfi Coast. You can fly into Naples Airport (NAP), and arrange for the rest of your journey from there. There is also ferry service available from various points, such as Capri and Salerno. These ferries are only available during part of the year, so be sure to verify that they will be in operation during your stay.

The state on Monday denied the University of South Florida's request to exhume the bodies of dead boys from a clandestine, unmarked cemetery at the Dozier School for Boys in the Panhandle town of Marianna, where troubled youths for decades were severely beaten and abused by guards.
In a letter to the USF professors leading the project, Secretary of State Ken Detzner wrote that he understood the importance of telling the story of the Dozier School.
But, "The Department of State does not have the statutory authority to fulfill your request," he wrote. "The [Bureau of Archeological Research's] existing statutory authority to grant archaeological research permits is restricted to the recovery of objects of historical or archaeological value, not human remains, absent a danger to the grave site that actually threatens the loss or damage of those remains."
Many of the graves on the campus were already lost. Crosses that marked supposed graves were placed incorrectly based on folklore. The USF team, using ground penetrating radar, found suspected grave shafts in the woods north of the cemetery. They identified nearly 50 grave shafts, 19 more than the Florida Department of Law Enforcement found during an earlier investigation. They also suspect there's a second cemetery on the campus.
"Enough is enough," said Jerry Cooper of Cape Coral, who took a lie detector test to prove he received more than 100 lashes when he was beaten at the school in the 1960s. "When you've got graves outside of the marked cemetery and you have found more than the FDLE claims that are buried in that graveyard, that's all the more reason to keep going."
The families of dead boys buried at the notorious reform school, which opened in 1900 and closed in 2011, have been fighting to have their loved ones exhumed and moved to family plots. Hundreds of former wards, now old men, have put pressure on the state to let USF unearth the remains of their peers, some of whom died under suspicious circumstances.
"This is an example of yet another attempt to cover up the truth," said Robert Straley of Clearwater, who was abused at the school in the 1960s. "This time I do not believe the people of Florida will stand for it. You cannot find this many bodies and simply walk away."
"They're liars," said Dale Landry, president of the NAACP's Tallahassee branch, of state officials. "Look at the insensitivity."
Landry said he met with Detzner in his office and recalled that the secretary of state was glad that USF wanted to lead the exhumation at Dozier, because otherwise the state itself might have to do it.
"Human remains are historic. He's playing a game of double talk," Landry said. Detzner didn't respond to a request to be interviewed.
Erin Kimmerle, the USF anthropology professor who launched the project, said she was considering other options.
Kimmerle, the local medical examiner and Attorney General Pam Bondi initially petitioned a judge in Marianna to let them exhume the remains. The judge denied the petition, but pointed out other options.
"We are meeting with the USF attorneys [Tuesday] to understand what this means and we are continuing to work with the families to determine the next steps and how to proceed," Kimmerle said. "I'll have more information after our meeting."
"At this point, it's starting to look like a classic run around," said U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson. "This is state-owned land, it's the state's responsibility and the state of Florida needs to do the right thing and not pass the buck."
Bondi's communications director said Bondi would contact USF to try to determine the next step. Bondi "has been supportive of every effort to bring closure to the families of those who died at the Dozier School for Boys," Jen Meale said.
At the last meeting of Gov. Rick Scott and the Cabinet on June 25, Detzner was present to testify on an unrelated issue and gave no indication that the USF request was in trouble.
At the meeting, Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam said: "I've got folks in my old hometown that are really focused on this. I'd love to get an update on where we stand on Dozier, and getting these families the answers they deserve."
"You said it," Bondi told Putnam. " This is our Florida history and this is on state-owned land, and we know at some point atrocities occurred, and there are families in this state who need answers."
Straley, who helped start a group called the White House Boys, so named because of the small white building where the abuse occurred, said he's determined to get answers. "Time is on their side," Straley said. "Sixty White House Boys have died since this started in 2007. This is just an attempt by them to see: Are we going to give up? The answer is, 'Hell no.' I'll never give up."

Breaking boundaries
We helped Prozac become a sensation.
When Prozac (fluoxetine) launched in 1987, it was a sensation, representing new beginnings and opportunities for those suffering from depression.
It has since achieved iconic status in popular culture.
Why? Because we realized that in order for it to succeed, we would have to tackle depression head-on, and destigmatize the condition by raising social consciousness.
We created the name, Prozac, by intentionally distancing the name from everything typically associated with anti-depressants – strong chemicals, side effects, and mood swings.
The easy and accessible language provided patients a platform to talk comfortably and openly about their condition.
As a result of its wide use, Prozac has since been entered into the Oxford English Dictionary, proving that a great brand can have context well beyond its category.

Marisa De Los Santos
Adult Fiction DE LOS
Summary: It's been six years since Pen Calloway watched Cat and Will, her best friends from college, walk out of her life. Through the birth of her daughter, the death of her father, and the vicissitudes of single motherhood, she has never stopped missing them. When, after years of silence, Cat--the bewitching, charismatic center of their group--urgently requests that the three meet at their college reunion, Pen can't refuse. But instead of a happy reconciliation, what awaits is a collision of past and present that sends Pen and Will on a journey around the world, with Pen's five-year-old daughter and Cat's hostile husband in tow. And as Pen and Will struggle to uncover the truth about Cat, they find more than they bargained for: startling truths about who they were before and who they are now.

DULUTH, MN (KDAL) - State Rep. Tom Huntley of Duluth plans to plead guilty following his Feb. 2 arrest on suspicion of drunken driving. The Duluth News Tribune reported the DFL lawmaker told the paper he was pulled over on Hwy. 6 near Deerwood for driving about eight miles per hour over the speed limit. The officer administered a breath analysis which yielded a blood-alcohol level of 0.083. The legal limit to drive in Minnesota is 0.08. Huntley told the paper he was guilty, so he plans to plead guilty, and wanted to let the people of Duluth know he is sorry for his actions.

M&A in Gamification
Jennifer is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
SAP, Salesforce and IBM technology acquisitions now embrace gamification by leveraging innovative strategies in loyalty and engagement. Mergers and Acquisitions set record highs, with most acquisitions going towards smaller companies. In 2013, gamification will be adopted as standard practice within organizations and business processes. Acquisition revenue totaled $4 billion in 2012, an 18 percent increase from the $3.4 billion earned in 2011.
2013 is still showing signs of a growing competitive market for cloud-based human resource management services. Enterprise organizations will have to adapt through expansion to lead in gamification. Investments also in this sector fell 57 percent to $853 million. Investment transaction value was led by middleware and gamification at 35 percent, mobile at 31 percent, MMO at 18 percent, followed by social, console, and advertising. The total gaming industry is expected to reach $83 billion by 2015.
Gamification and Enterprise
As gamification becomes standard process, training management, leaders, and executives requires monitoring such digital business innovations through gamification by measuring user behavior. There are many areas that can be tracked with such analysis. Enterprise objectives will be centered around engagement priorities.
IBM (NYSE: IBM) in December 2012, announced the closing of its acquisition of Kenexa for an estimated $1.3 billion. Kenexa helps clients embrace social business capabilities and connects through social networks. Kenexa is a leading provider of recruiting and talent management solutions. IBM does understand the importance of HR objectives and the business. IBM recently announced its Smarter Workforce Initiative in 2013. The campaign is to position IBM as a leading provider of HR and talent management solutions.

"By creating a smarter workforce, employees can drive innovation to bring products and services to market faster, resolve problems before they arise to improve customer service, and increase sales by building new skills -- linking the right experts to the right clients," said Alistair Rennie, general manager, social business, IBM.
Salesforce.com Inc. (NYSE: CRM) acquired Rypple in 2011. Rypple had just launched a native Android app prior to the acquisition that connects managers with employees. Rypple's helps managers improve employee performance through "social goals" and engagement. This came at a similar time when SAP had bought out SuccessFactors. Rypple was founded in 2008 with 45 employees. Its customer base includes companies such as Facebook and Spotify. Success of Salesforce and SuccessFactors will factor in its use of integrated talent management solutions versus stand alone. Salesforce has already proven significant in making cloud mainstream within the industry.

SuccessFactors' software is a cloud-based suite of tools around managing various personnel issues in a business: Performance management, goal setting, managing compensation, and even planning for succession among senior managers. Its customer base includes companies such as Advanced Micro Devices, Comcast, and BlackRock. SuccessFactors competes with the company Workday.
"For more than a decade, SuccessFactors has created and led this space," said Lars Dalgaard, founder and CEO of SuccessFactors and member of the Executive Board of SAP AG. "The biggest core-HRIS cloud deal ever done with 300,000 users. We will continue to invest more aggressively in delighting our customers and leading in this field."

2013: Investing in Gamification
The HR solutions and software market is highly competitive,, with companies that have been competing in this market for a very long time. The growth of the Global Gamification market is driven by many factors such as the market's ability to optimize in consumer engagement. Investors following gamification for enterprise companies should consider innovation areas, engagement and collaboration, organizational culture and growth expansion. With present economic conditions, investors are optimistic, but seek out value in gamification.

Kacey Musgraves spends most of her time on the road, so her ultimate weekend would be spent at home in Nashville.
Kacey tells Cosmopolitan , "I'd be getting some good workouts in, hanging out with my dog and eating delicious food."
One of those relaxing weekends at home just might inspire a new song from Kacey, and she's always prepared to jot those song ideas down. When asked what she keeps on her nightstand at home, Kacey says, "A notepad, because I'll often get random ideas right before I'm going to sleep and I'll have to write them down, otherwise they're gone forever!"
Listen for Kacey's new single, "Keep It to Yourself," to hit the airwaves soon.

Spending Time in Tuscany by Suzanne Barton
Spending Time in Tuscany
by Suzanne Barton
I was fortunate enough to attend a painting workshop in a small Tuscan area in the hills between Sienna and Florence. It was an experience I shall never forget. Instead of simply visiting the countryside as a tourist, the participants were able to submerge themselves in the culture, architecture, landscape, food and scents of Tuscany. Some of these paintings are the result of that week. I also visited Venice and Cinque Terre which are documented here as well. The other paintings are of places in Utah, etc. Paintings can be a way for the artist to record those sensations and feelings of a time or place that were most visually impressive. I hope I have achieved that here for the viewer.

From a young age, Ruchi has been passionate about translating science into tangible change that will improve the lives of others. Inspired by a trip to India at the age of 15 and the devastating impact of mosquito transmitted diseases, Ruchi Shah created a novel all-natural mosquito repellent while in high school that is effective and inexpensive, rendering it accessible to a global population. In this TEDx talk, Ruchi passionately shares her story, including the challenges of being a young scientist and the triumphs she experienced through the power of mentorship. Elaborating on the perception of science by the general public, Ruchi proposes solutions to break the stereotypes of scientists.
Ruchi Shah is a sophomore at Stony Brook University in the Scholars for Medicine (B.S./M.D.) and Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) program, majoring in biology and minoring in journalism. Ruchi's work, ranging from creating an all-natural mosquito repellent to improving cervical cancer diagnosis, was recognized by the National Young Inventor's Hall of Fame, the AXA Achievement scholarship, the Simons Fellowship, and Intel ISEF. She was featured in Forbes and USA Today, and was invited as a spotlight speaker and the youngest participant at the inaugural Forbes Women's Summit in May 2013.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Sedu Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat I...Relaxed African American Hair, Thin Hair (4a/4b)For Shampoo and Conditioner (humecto conditioner that you leave on for 15 minutes), I use Kera Care. Our hair needs moisture and having a good moisurizing shampoo helps with your results. Other good ones are Design Essentials or Mizani. A good shampoo and conditioner makes a world of difference, I found out that through trial and error. Blow dry using either a brush for more volume, or comb/pic for the flat look. A good blow dryer helps out as well. Make sure you put something on it before you blow dry, like Aveda blow dry spray or Kera Care syrum (just a quarter size) to prevent split ends and leave your hair healthy. For the temperature setting, put it on 360 IF you want it to be straight. If you are worried about heat, put it on a lower setting but it wont have the same results as 360. If your hair is more course, you may need to push it closer to 400. Be sure to put some serum on your ends!!! Flat Irons are known to chew the ends up. When youre done, I like the combination of using Biosilk Serum and Deep Brilliance Serum. With those two, your hair wont look dry and itll come out soft and silky. And the next day, keep putting a a few dabs of moisture (nothing watered down) because with that heat, it technically dries your hair (my hair is usually dry anyway) a bit but if treated with moisture, your hair should be fine.Reply to this post

Sedu Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat I...Help With Breakage And Keeping It Straight1. wash and with a shampoo and condition for either smoothing or moisturizing. Good ones are matrix sleek,neutrogena triple moisture, back to basics straightenining, Pantene sleek nshine, Redken smooth down, Redken All Soft,Infusium for frizzy hair... 2. Deep condition. Its SOOO important my hair has soo much breakage if I dont deep condition every time I wash. My favorite is Neutrogena Triple Moisture mask. 3. Towel dry and evenly distribute Redken Satinwear blowry lotion throughout your hair but dont use too much. I use about a nickel size. 4. Blow dry with a paddle or round brush. 5. lightly mist a little flat iron spray on each section of your hair but do not use too much or it will get sticky. I like matrix sleek iron spray, straight sexy hairs soya want flat hair, chi 44 iron guard, V05 miracle mist, 6. Finish with hairspray. Anything from the Straight sexy hair line is fantastic.Reply to this post

Sedu Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat I...Preventing BreakageMy Sedu works great, but at first, it really damaged my hair. I tried a lot of really expensive products, but nothing seemed to be keeping the damage at a minimum. But, my cousin recently suggested to me to try LOreal "Hot Straight" Straightening Cream (its in a pink bottle), and it works AMAZINGLY. You can find it in ANY grocery store, and it only costs about five to seven bucks. I use my Sedu every single day. The last time I cut my hair was in August. Since using the "Hot Straight" Straightening Cream, I have NO split ends. NONE. And, it leaves my hair twice as silky as it ever was with anything else.Reply to this post

The Bridgeport Sound Tigers defeated the Hartford Wolf Pack Sunday evening by a final score of 5-1. John Persson lit the lamp—and also added two assists—while Mike Halmo, Mike Cornell, Pierre-Marc Bouchard and Chris Langkow chipped in with goals of their own. Parker Milner made 31 saves for his third win of the season.
Halmo got the scoring going less than four minutes in when the Sound Tigers scored their first of two power-play goals. Ryan Strome, who had his 10-game point streak snapped Saturday night, found Halmo driving up the middle. Halmo got the puck past Hartford goaltender David LeNeveu and made it a 1-0 game.
With less than a minute to play in the first, the Wolf Pack got on the board with a power-play goal of their own. Danny Syvret had the puck at center point and blasted a slap shot through traffic to tie the score at one. That was the only puck Milner let past him all game.
Persson got his goal midway through the second period on a beautiful individual effort. He collected the puck near the blue line in the offensive zone before stickhandling around two Wolf Pack defensemen. He got to the base of the circle and fired a wrist shot that went bar-down for the goal. It was Persson's sixth of the season.
Cornell's goal came with less than two seconds to play in the middle period and gave the Sound Tigers a huge burst of momentum headed into the third period. Cornell's shot came from the top of the right circle and made it 3-1 Sound Tigers.
It remained a 3-1 game throughout most of the third period, but the Sound Tigers pulled away late with a pair of goals. Langkow sprang Bouchard on a breakaway with a backhand pass to the Wolf Pack blue line. Bouchard deked to the backhand and slipped it past LeNeveu at the 15:41 mark. In the final minute, the Sound Tigers sent the puck into the Wolf Pack end, where LeNeveu made an ill-advised attempt to corral the puck. Instead, Langkow reached it first, made a move around a diving LeNeveu, and put the puck into the open net. It was Langkow's first of the season and put a bow on a 5-1 Sound Tigers victory.
The Sound Tigers are back on the road next weekend when they play the Portland Pirates Friday and Springfield Falcons Saturday. They'll host the Syracuse Crunch at Webster Bank Arena Sunday at 5 p.m.
3rd star: Mike Cornell (BST)
2nd star: Parker Milner (BST)
1st star: John Persson (BST)
Familiar Feeling: Chris Langkow's goal was his first in the American Hockey League since Oct. 14, 2011, when he was in his first stint with the Sound Tigers. He scored his lone AHL goal of the 2011-12 season against the Adirondack Phantoms.
Fists Flying: There were four fights in Sunday's contest, including two within three seconds of each other.
Solid Backstop: Milner's 31 saves were the most he's made as an AHL goaltender in his professional career.
