TGS 2009: Jones Gets a Massage
While waiting for Teti to arrive, I had a day to occupy by myself here in Shinjuku. I decided to sleep, eat, drink lots of water, read, monkey with my computer, play some GeoDefense Swarm on my iPhone, and generally attempt to recover from the 10 cruel and unusual hours I spent yesterday crunched and cramped into that coach seat on my JAL flight from Vancouver to Narita.
I'm single, as the entire world knows by now. Without a wife, S.O., or girlfriend, I have no one to answer to these days (except my two cats: The Chief and Bee). I can do what I want and not have to fuss about any messy guilt or hurt feelings on the far side of it. I believe it's a universal law that if you're single, and your hotel room telephone has a MASSAGE button on it, one must press said button and see what happens.
So I pressed it. Ring. Riiiiinnnng.
A nice-sounding Japanese girl answered on the other end. Her English was terrible, but she understood what I was asking for: I wanted a one hour massage.
I've had my share of massages in my day, so I know how they usually work. I wrapped one of my hotel room's postage-stamp sized towels around my waist, then put on the hotel's complimentary paper-thin robe that made my skin immediately start to itch. This felt like an appropriate outfit for an in-room massage. I also cued up Leonard Cohen at a very low volume on my MacBook, as I imagine the silence during a massage would be oppressive.
I waited.
I really don't like massages all that much. What I do like--TMI ahead, RED ALERT--is having my back scratched for a little while. That's it. I'm telling you, scratch my back just once, ladies, and do a decent enough job of it, and I'll follow you around and do your bidding for the rest of my days. It's that simple.
While waiting for massage person to arrive, I naturally tried to calculate the sleaze factor involved here. According to the little card in my room, massages begin daily at noon; and the last massage is at 3:00 a.m. Who offers massages until 3 a.m.? That did seem a bit sleazy to me. I sat in my room, nervously looking at the clock (my massage therapist was due at 1 p.m.) and pacing in my robe. I thought, Maybe she will be a cute Japanese girl. She would scratch my back with her long finger nails and say things to me that I couldn't understand--I love the sound of Japanese being spoken, even though I don't understand a word of it--and maybe she would like me a little, and I would like her, and she wouldn't steal any of my valuables (I had put my PSP and my new camera in the in-room safe, just in case) and she would give me a chaste kiss at the end of my back-scratch/massage, and later on I would meet her out for some udon and sake.
I have a very active imagination.
One o'clock, the doorbell rings (all hotel rooms in Tokyo have doorbells, FYI). I open the door to find a 4-foot-tall 50-year-old homunculous of a woman wearing a double-breasted white lab coat thing that makes her appear as if she'd only seconds earlier powered down a bunsen burner.
The woman speaks no English. None. I start to remove my robe. She panics. She blushes and turns away. She clearly wants me to keep my robe on. OK, OK, I get it. Suddenly my Leonard Cohen tracks playing in the background sound sleazy and suggestive.
Understatement of the day: This is not going well.
I'm nervous. The woman is nervous. She motions for me to lie down on the bed on my side. I try to relax, try to breath. She is poking at me, hurrying from limb to limb, working quickly. It feels like squirrells are crawling over me. In seven minutes, she is basically done with the entire massage.
I imagine this is what it would probably be like to get a massage from my Accountant: rushed and mechanical and cold and somewhat resentful.
With 53 minutes remaining of our time together, she proceeds to repeat what she has already done a second time. And when she is done with that, she repeats it again a third time. I try to breath through it all--inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale--wondering if I should go ahead and make her leave. But then parts of the seven-minute routine are actually kind of therapeutic, so I let her continue.
She then decides that she wants me to do something different, but because of the language barrier, she has no choice but to act out what she wants. She lies down next to me in my tiny hotel room bed, stomach down, head on pillow. I notice that she has her shoes off at this point. She is wearing black socks. This is awkward. I make an "Ah-ha!" sound, which I'm certain must transcend all languages, and I get into the position she has asked. She works her hands into a hard little hammer shapes and begins pounding me on top of the head. She wails away. It hurts a little, but it also feels good. Then she uses her hammer hands to pound away at my back. Again, it hurts, but some of it feels good, so I endure. I notice at this point that she has a smell about her; she smells like dried wax and hot dogs. Then, with her shoes off, she begins to walk on my legs. She's surprisingly light. Her weight barely registers.
Once the time is mercifully up, she climbs down and puts on her shoes. It's hard to tell who is more relieved, her or me. I sign a slip of paper confirming that I just received a one hour massage for 6,300 yen (about $60). After she's gone, I look into the bathroom mirror and start laughing. Man, sometimes, what the goddamn shit hell.
Moral of the story: Just because your hotel room phone has a MASSAGE button does not mean that one should always press it.
Ah, just look at me; one day here and already I'm learning things.

A Solid Quarter and a Solid Pipeline, but Still Waiting on the Stock Price
Harsh is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
If there's one game publisher that's capable of putting up strong numbers on a regular basis, it's Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ: ATVI). The company recently released its second quarter results, soon after rival Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: EA) released its own report.
Electronic Arts saw its top line shrink and loss widen from the year-ago period, but nevertheless it beat on bottom line and reported a lower than expected loss. However, the stock jumped almost 6% as management put some weight behind it in the form of a $500 million buyback.
In contrast, Activision's quarter was a better one, but the stock stayed true to its doggedness and trended on the negative side in pre-market trading as World of Warcraft subscribers dwindled and the company provided a glum outlook for the current quarter.
However, things aren't as ugly as one might think, and Activision Blizzard is still a better bet than Electronic Arts. Mr. Market might punish a stock for the smallest of mistakes, but we need to go beyond this myopia and look at a stock from a long-term perspective.
The quarter – wow, but no WoW
Revenue jumped an astounding 51% from last year to $1,054 million (non-GAAP), crushing both the company's and the Street's expectations handsomely, while non-GAAP earnings doubled to 20 cents a share. But investors were looking eagerly at how World of Warcraft fared in the quarter, and they didn't like what they saw. Subscriber count went down 1.1 million (or 11%) sequentially, which is quite a hit considering it makes almost 30% of Activision Blizzard's revenue.
Another army of Orcs is on the way
But, there's nothing that can't be fixed and Activision Blizzard has a fix for the World of Warcraft pain on the way. The company is slated to launch World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria, the next expansion pack of the franchise, on September 25. This would probably infuse some life into the seven-year-old game and attract those players who went away back into Activision Blizzard's fold. And as Mists of Pandaria would be launched pretty late in the quarter, Activision Blizzard might lose some more subscribers in the current quarter before the expansion pack arrives, which might be one of the reasons of the poor outlook.
Beyond Warcraft's World
However, we need to focus on other aspects as well, especially the game which drove the company's revenue north. Diablo III, launched by Activision Blizzard in May has been selling like hot pies. The game achieved the title of "fastest selling PC game ever" and sold over 10 million copies in the quarter. Also, the company's three games, namely Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Diablo III occupied the top three slots in North America and Europe in terms of copies sold in the first half of the year. Moreover, Activision Blizzard expects Diablo III's terrific performance to continue in the second half of the year.
In addition, the company has a number of catalysts that are expected to drive its top line higher. Apart from Mists of Pandaria, the company is set to launch Skylanders Giants and Call of Duty: Black Ops II later this year. The previous iterations of both these games have met with astounding success and might do the same going forward. The Call of Duty franchise needs no introduction and has been an outrageous success for the company.
CoD in China
Also, Activision Blizzard had made another intelligent move last month. It introduced Call of Duty Online in China in association with Tencent. Tencent operates CrossFire, the most successful online game in the country. As a result, it seems that Activision's decision to go with Tencent was a masterstroke instead of NetEase (NASDAQ: NTES), which operates World of Warcraft in the country. Tencent is a far bigger player than NetEase in the online gaming market in China, which lends further credence to Activision's decision. Online gaming in China has been growing at a very fast rate and is expected to be as worth more than $9 billion in the next two years. Hence, the launch of CoD Online in China is certainly a good move on Activision Blizzard's part.
Beyond the hurdles
But then, there might be a few concerns regarding Activision Blizzard. You might think that its lowly forecast for the current quarter signals towards more declines in WoW subscribers. But as I told you earlier, once the next expansion pack is released, the game would probably paint a better picture towards the back-end of the year.
Also, Activision Blizzard is known quite well for low-balling when it comes to the guidance. It had guided below the Street's expectations for the second quarter as well but blew past expectations.
Next, the cloud of uncertainty regarding what Vivendi, which holds a 61% stake in Activision Blizzard, might do with its shares in the company. An open-market sale would weigh heavy on the stock but I believe setting up a defensive position would be a better idea than shying away from the stock.
The stock price curse
Activision Blizzard has been in terrific form this year, trouncing the Street in both quarters reported so far. Its pipeline for the remainder of the year is pretty strong and the foray of CoD in China is another positive. However, the stock has a history of displaying dog-like characteristics and I believe too much focus on World of Warcraft numbers and the Vivendi episode has led to a poor stock price performance this year.
But, Activision is undoubtedly the best in its league as far as stock price performance is concerned so far this year, and that too with a dividend yield of 1.5%. You could have done worse by picking a stock like Electronic Arts, Zynga or Take-Two Interactive that are deeply into the red. This is one of the reasons why I'm initiating an outperform CAPS call on Activision Blizzard and hope that the stock's performance catches up with its strong numbers.

June 4, 1999
The purpose of this statement from the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) is to offer insight on the need for increased appropriations to support the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Founded in 1911, our membership currently numbers over 32,000 dedicated safety professionals. Included in this membership are Certified Safety Professionals, Professional Engineers, ergonomists, academicians, fire protection engineers, system safety experts, industrial hygienists, physicians, occupational nurses, and an impressive collection of other disciplines, skills, and backgrounds. We pride ourselves on our dedication to excellence, expertise, and commitment to the protection of people, property, and environment on a world-wide basis.
ASSE supports federal safety and health agencies such as OSHA, MSHA, NIOSH, CSB, and EPA. We believe these organizations help maintain a national focus on the importance of occupational safety and health.
We point to the following key points of consideration for OSHA/MSHA appropriations:
OSHA is presently looking at a proposed 10% budget increase of $35 million. Most of this funding has apparently been earmarked to add 119 positions for compliance assistance, enforcement, and alternative dispute resolution programs.
ASSE also maintains that OSHA appropriate $500,000 for the following issues:
ASSE has concern with the apparent expansion of OSHA compliance assistance services. In the 2/3/99 issue of the BNA Safety and Health Reporter, there is a statement which reads as follows:
An additional 67 staff positions are budgeted for the program, and they would allow the agency to place a technical specialist "within reach of every American business" Jeffress said.
While we encourage compliance assistance, ASSE is opposed to what we perceive to be movement toward expansion of complimentary safety and health consultation services. ASSE maintains the following:
Future Issues for the OSHA Safety Standards Directorate
The Society maintains that the OSHA Safety Standards Directorate is not being funded to reach its key objective - the reduction of traumatic fatalities and injuries. The following are areas which should specifically receive additional support:
The Safety Standards Directorate needs additional funding to support ongoing efforts for using data to guide policy making decisions. Professional judgment is required during the standards development process, however, there needs to more focused attention on significant hazards which can be reduced in an efficient/effective manner. The Safety Standards Directorate needs to explore how data can be used to drive more effective/efficient safety standards.
Finally, ASSE opposes any rider on OSHA which would prohibit the Agency from pursuing a standard addressing cumulative trauma disorder/ergonomics. ASSE believes there is adequate science supporting the development of a standard. While we agree that there should be ongoing research, the pursuit of such a standard should not be delayed.
MSHA is currently being planned for a total budget of $227 million which is $13 million higher than FY 1999 funding levels. ASSE also believes that increased appropriations should go to the following areas since these programs will impact the country in a beneficial manner:
ASSE also recommends encouragement of professional certification for safety and health mining professionals employed by MSHA. Professional certification requires adequate education, experience, ongoing training, and being able to pass a series of rigorous examinations. Supporting private sector certification is of benefit to the country. Appropriations should be used to hold workshops on the need for certification, reimburse MSHA employees for exam and registration fees, and the purchasing of study materials. ASSE estimates that the cost of professional certification for one professional is $1,500.
We point to the following key points of consideration for NIOSH appropriations:
ASSE strongly recommends the following:
We point out that the Safety Research division currently receives approximately $13 million per year in appropriations. The recommended increases would bring the total to approximately $20 million. ASSE maintains that the safety of the American workforce and improving this country's to ability to compete on a national level warrants additional investment.
After reviewing the proposed administration budget numbers for the CSB we put forth the following position:
The administration's proposed budget for the CSB is far below the expectations of this country's safety professionals, and we are very concerned this shortfall is a serious obstacle in preventing injuries, illnesses, and fatalities due to chemical incidents and releases. The Administration budget request of $7.5 million for the Chemical Safety Board does not say much to the public sector's commitment in maintaining a national focus on the importance of occupational safety and health. We call on you to ensure that this new agency is funded in a manner which allows the CSB to meet its key objectives which are based on congressional mandates. Under the current budget scenario we see this as not possible, thus, leaving the American worker and general public open to potentially serious or catastrophic harm.
We point to the following key points of consideration for CSB appropriations:
We point out that the CSB operated with $4 million for nine (9) months in 1997 and $6.5 million in 1998. The administration's current budget request is $7.5 million for CSB, which is woefully inadequate for the agency to achieve its basic chemical safety goals. Our request is that your committee appropriate an additional $5 million to increase the CSB budget for a total of $12.5 million. This increase will enable the United States to guide occupational safety and health investigations and research involving chemicals over the next decade and enhance worker protection in an efficient/effective manner.
ASSE supports the Environmental Protection Agency since it helps maintain a national focus on the importance of occupational safety and health. In fact, ASSE member surveys indicate that next to OSHA, EPA is the agency our members believe has the most impact on safety and health in the workplace. We acknowledge that many of the activities conducted by EPA do not necessarily relate directly to our members professional functions, there are EPA programs which have direct on workplace safety, (e.g.: Risk Management). Of specific interest is the fact that while this country has some of the toughest environmental protection laws in the world, our economy is very strong, (this year an $80 billion surplus expected).
ASSE is encouraged by proactive EPA initiatives which enhance occupational safety and health. Some of these initiatives include:
Of specific interest is the fact that EPA appears to be committed to working with the private sector on cooperative initiatives to enhance safety and health. We see this as a win-win strategy for EPA, enhancement of safety and health, and an improved environment for the American people. ASSE supports increased appropriations to the following areas:
ASSE also recommends encouragement of professional certification for safety and health professionals employed by EPA. Professional certification requires adequate education, experience, ongoing training, and being able to pass a series of rigorous examinations. Supporting private sector certification is of benefit to the country. Appropriations should be used to hold workshops on the need for certification, reimburse EPA employees for exam and registration fees, and the purchasing of study materials. ASSE estimates that the cost of professional certification for one professional is $1,500.
We thank you for your attention to this matter. If the Society can be of any further assistance on this matter please feel free to contact the Society at 847/699-2929.

Fuet is a long, slender all-pork sausage originating in Cataluña. Enjoy slices of this fully cured sausage with a good crusty bread. It is also tasty hot off the grill and adds great flavor to stews and soups.
Our fuet is made using free-range pork and Spanish spices. It is flavored with garlic and black pepper and differs from chorizo, in that it contains no smoky Pimentón de La Vera paprika.
The Pyrenees mountain towns of Osuna and Vic are especially known for excellent examples of these sausages. Unlike the Butifarra, another in the family of Catalan sausages, fuet is dry cured, like salami. You will receive two fuets in each package -- they are a little under 1 inch in diameter.
Pork, salt, nonfat dry milk, dextrose, citric acid, spices, garlic, sodium erythorbate, and sodium nitrite.

KABUL, Afghanistan (UPI) — A person dressed as an Afghan police officer killed two International Security Assistance Force members in southern Afghanistan Tuesday, officials said.
The matter is being investigated, the ISAF said in a release.
ISAF did not provide other information about the incident nor the identities of the victims. It is ISAF policy to defer to relevant national authorities for victim identification.
The ISAF also said Afghan and coalition forces arrested a Taliban leader in Helmand province Tuesday, Khaama Press reported.
The arrested leader was believed to have been providing tactical information to senior Taliban leaders and help moving roadside bombs to terrorist cell members.
Coalitions and Afghan forces also arrested a Taliban weapons and IED facilitator in Kandahar province Tuesday, the ISAF said. The detainee is suspected of smuggling weapons throughout the province and obtaining bombmaking materials.

This course will examine various historical and contemporary aspects of American social and cultural life with an emphasis on diversity and an examination of the intersection of race, class, gender, sexuality, religion, ability and other identifiers.
GS 490 Women in Islam (Rebecca Williams)
This course will examine the role of women in Islamic religion and society, beginning with the Qur'ān and the reports by and about the women associated with the Prophet Muḥammad – both of which are used as models for current debates on the subject – but focusing on the challenges Muslim women face
GS 490/PHL 490 Feminism & Gender Theory (Kristina Busse)
This course provides an overview of feminist theory from the late eighteenth century to the present. The course not only introduces famous feminist figures, texts, and themes, but also situates these texts in their cultural context, thus offering a comprehensive overview of the feminist debates of the last 200 years.
GS 492/REL 492 Black Women and Religion (Betty Trout-Kelly)
This course examines Black women's contributions in the religious arena including but not limited to Black liberation theology, leadership, and historical and contemporary social and religious issues in America.
AIS 320 Cultural Diversity (Jenny Manders)
An interdisciplinary exploration of issues related to interactions between diverse groups in teams, communities, and organizations. Reviews research from a variety of disciplines, introduces the history and law of equal opportunity in the U.S., and examines the costs and benefits of diversity. Topics include prejudice, stereotyping, affirmative action, barriers to mobility, discrimination, marginalization, mentoring, cooperative teamwork, and international issues.
ARH 480 Women & Art (Elizabeth Rivenbark)
A study of women throughout art history as both the subject and the creator of art
CJ 390 Sexual Violence (Sarah Koon-Magnin)
This course focuses on sexual violence. Although this course focuses on this phenomenon primarily in the United States, sexual violence as a broader global construct will also be discussed. This course will incorporate perspectives from several disciplines including criminal justice, gender studies, psychology, and sociology. Credit cannot be received for both GS 490 and CJ 390 Sexual Violence.
EH 478 Studies in Film: Dialectics of the Eye (Becky McLaughlin)
Film is a visual medium, and thus one of the chief concerns of this class will be to explore the role the eye plays in Western culture, particularly vis-à-vis gender roles, sexual identity, memory, and imagination. One of the aims of this class will be to get acquainted with our "I" (what has traditionally been called the "self" but what most contemporary film theory refers to as the "subject") by getting acquainted with our eye. This will entail an effort to think more reflectively about how and why we see what we see; to understand how sight manipulates and is manipulated by the world in which it operates; and to develop a critical and self-aware eye. If our more grandiose aim is to understand looking as a cultural practice, our more modest but no less important aim is to learn how to "read" movies. Of course, these two aims are clearly dialectical, for in reading movies we read our culture. Important Note from Dr. McLaughlin Concerning the Filmic Content of this Class: We will (I use the emphatic purposely, here) be watching films that are disturbingly sexual and frequently violent in their content. If you are uncomfortable watching and discussing films that show explicit sex (not simply heterosexual but homosexual), nudity (male as well as female), and violence (men hurting women, women hurting men, and men hurting men), you will probably be very uncomfortable in this class, and thus you should learn to live with your discomfort or avoid signing up for the class altogether.
GRN 290 Gender & Aging (Susan Nelson)
This course examines the dynamics of gender and aging within society from an interdisciplinary perspective.
PSC 340 Race, Gender & Politics (Corina Schulze)
This course is designed to provide students with a critical examination of race and gender in the political system. From the founding to the present, politics and government reflect ideological judgments about who gets what, when, and how. As such, government has legitimized only certain individuals as political actors, certain identities as politically relevant, certain relationships as important, and certain practices as the means by which one might change political status. This course looks at the interlinked social processes that make gender and race in the United States. How have social relations like colonization,slavery, civil rights, and migration shaped social institutions like the courts, media, education, and health care? How have people fought back against gender and racial subordination? We examine particular historical contexts and contemporary issues to answer these questions. Thus, the entire course asks you to reflect on the ethics of building a society that is free of racial and gender discrimination. In doing, so we come to realize that concepts of race and gender change over time and that people do not experience their racial and gender identities apart from each other. Furthermore, one's race and gender also send out messages about one's sexuality and economic class.
SY 200 Social Factors in Sexual Behavior (Marc Matre, Harvey Joanning)
An analysis of social patterns in sexual behavior including theories of sexuality and gender, gender similarities and differences in sexual behavior, sexual orientation, sexual violence, teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.
SY 220 Marriage & The Family (Gloria Palileo, Sara McAfee)
The organization, function, and present status of the family, primarily in the United States. Problems of mate selection, marital adjustment, and parent-child relations treated on the basis of recent and current social change.

Two suspects have been arrested in an attempted robbery in Phoenix that left a man and woman with gunshot wounds.
Phoenix police say 24-year-old Dwayne Phelps was taken into custody Thursday on suspicion of attempted armed robbery and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. 21-year-old Jasmine Shanead Greer is being held on suspicion of conspiracy to commit armed robbery.
Police say 32-year-old Jerold Garrison was riding his bike April 18 when he saw someone trying to rob a woman.
Garrison was shot in the neck as he tried to help the 21-year-old woman, who suffered a minor gunshot wound during the attack.
"We never ever encourage our citizens to step into situations like that and then themselves become victims, but in the same breath none of us really know what we're going to do in that type of a situation, and Mr. Garrison saw that there was someone in distress and felt he had to do something to stop that," said Phoenix Police Officer James Holmes.
Police say Greer offered to sell the woman a vehicle and made arrangements to meet the victim. Police also say Phelps is related to Greer.

Texting while driving: It can wait.
That was the message geared toward students in Russellville on Thursday.
AT&T and the Russellville Police Department partnered to bring the It Can Wait campaign to high school students.
Thursday, students got the chance to text and drive an air simulator to show how dangerous it can be.
Officials with AT&T also showed students a video presentation about people who have lost their lives or been seriously injured while texting and driving.
"Most importantly, we are here with the simple goal of savings lives," said Griffin Hagler with the AT&T It Can Wait campaign. "If we can impact students here today, teachers or anyone else who hears our message to not text and drive, just wait until they're not driving. That's what we're hoping to do."
AT&T said more than 1-million people have taken their pledge across the country to not text and drive.

Herman Cain's campaign, now ended, should be remembered as a civil rights breakthrough
Herman Cain has announced that he is "suspending" his presidential campaign. One suspects that it is "suspended" in the same way that a dead parrot is suspended from mortality. It is no more, it is bereft of life. "I am at peace with my God," said Mr Cain. "Rest in peace", the Lord might have replied.
This is a sad day for Herman Cain but also a sad day for America. Whether the accusations against him (including a 13-year affair) are true or not, it's tragic that they prevented him from at least competing in Iowa. All those millions of dollars and hours of activism have been wasted. Republican voters have been denied an alternative option to the establishment candidates who now dominate the race. Some will consider that Gingrich v Romney is no choice at all, that we're back to politics as usual. A lot of kids are going to be disillusioned, a lot of people are not going to bother to vote.
But Cain quits the race with his head held high. Over 18 months, he has energised the Right, attracted many independents to the GOP and floated some good ideas. His 9-9-9 flat tax plan was a little goofy around the edges, but it forced the other candidates to talk about tax reform. In economics, Cain has done wonders for the Republicans by forcing them to consider maverick solutions to sluggish growth. He has helped them to rediscover their inner populist.
Most importantly, Cain smashed the myth that the Republican Party is a "whites only" party. Before now, there were two assumptions that defined racial party politics in America: (1) African-Americans never vote Republican and (2) those that do are insane. The only serious black presidential candidate before Herman Cain was Alan Keyes, and his bizarre pronouncements on religion and sexuality suggested that this orthodoxy was basically sound. So the mainstream media perpetuated the gross racial stereotype that conservatism is the gospel of fat-bellied racist white Republicans and a handful of self-loathing blacks. It became a self-fulfilling prophecy: millions of deeply conservative African-Americans stuck with the Democrats, despite Obama's shocking economic record.
Cain dispelled that myth by being eloquent, gifted, passionate, credible … and a Republican! He was the real deal: a poor boy from the segregated South who got to the top without the patronage of white liberals. His conservatism wasn't wonky like it can be among minority Republicans (sorry Dr Keyes). It flowed from his faith and ethnic heritage – it was locked in the cadence of his voice, which sang with sweet righteousness on the great matters of the day. Like an old time preacher, he scolded the work shy, damned the bureaucrats and predicted a better, flatter-taxed day to come. He was simultaneously the embodiment of hundreds of years of African-American cultural heritage and a new kind of post-racial candidate. In short, his ethnic background moulded his peculiar vision of life – but his skin colour didn't matter a damn to the thousands of white conservatives who supported him.
At his announcement, Cain was introduced by the niece of Dr Martin Luther King Jr. Her presence was appropriate considering what Cain has achieved. By being a serious Republican presidential candidate, Cain broke the aesthetic link between party affiliation and colour. He has, hopefully, opened the black vote up to competition between the Democrats and the Republicans – the last phase of fully integrating African-Americans into the two party system. That is how Herman Cain's candidacy should be remembered: as another step along the long road to civil rights and equality in America.

Getting a flu shot has been a priority for some.
"I'm pretty good at following my kids' doctor's directions, so when she tells us we should get them vaccinated we do," said Michelle Drab.
Some get the shot to stay healthy.
"I have plenty of friends who are doctors and work in infection control, so they all suggest getting it, so I got it. It's better than being sick," said Carlee Beveridge.
For others, it is a necessity.
"I have a chronic auto immune disease so if I don't get my flu shot and I get the flu, it would be worse than a healthy person, it would be a life risk for me," said Penni Zuercher.
A map from the CDC shows a regional outbreak of the flu. Google flu tracker lists Tampa with a moderate-high outbreak. Doctors have determined the strain of flu is H1N1, known as "Swine Flu."
"We are certainly more busy right now; we are seeing a lot of folks with cough cold flu," said Dr. Jeremy Tharp.
Tharp, who is with MedExpress, says he stays busy with all the flu shots.
"It really does decrease the risk of getting the flu, and even in folks who get the flu, it tends to decrease the severity of the infection," he said.
Shands Hospital at the University of Florida has been the epicenter of the flu epidemic.
Just two days ago, we learned 12 people are dead from the flu, and 150 have been hospitalized in the North Florida hospital.
Doctors there have been studying the virus. They say it's nowhere near a
pandemic, but it is serious for different reasons.
"It seems to suggest not so much that there is a lot of flu out there, but the flu that is out there tends to be a little bit nastier," said Dr. Glenn Morris.
Doctors say the flu appears to be slowing down but suggest people prepare themselves with a flu shot.
"It looks like our numbers are coming down. We seem to be leveling off, but giving what is going on with the rest of the country and what we're hearing out of Gainesville, I still think we should be very concerned, and it's not too late to get that shot," recommends FOX 13's Dr. Joette Giovinco.

Out-of-the-box Thinking
We created a name with the ideal fit for a line extension of a popular automobile.
Nissan developed the second generation of the Cube, a popular automobile brand in the Japanese market, in 2002 and turned to Interbrand Japan for a name to fit the line extension. The new car featured an expanded wheelbase and enough interior space to comfortably seat seven passengers.
Interbrand's international team of verbal identity specialists in Tokyo mapped a set of creative criteria to aid in the generation of names that would realize Nissan's desire for an organic extension of the Cube brand name, as well as reflect the new car's unique position as the smallest MPV with an added third-row seat roomy enough for adults.
The Tokyo team created upwards of 2000 names, shortlisted them based on identical and negative screening processes and input from Interbrand's global network of naming professionals, and presented a final list of 40 candidates to Nissan. The winner was Cube3 (pronounced Cube Cubic), a direct conceptual reference to the three rows of seats, and a fitting stretch of the Cube brand. The new name is not only a fitting extension of the Cube brand in Japan, but suitable for international markets. The Cube3 is slated for a 2009 launch in the United States.

The North Carolina House has approved a Republican-backed regulatory reform package that relaxes rules for landfills and trucks hauling trash, makes it harder for local governments to enact environmental ordinances and fires the state Environmental Management Commission.
The bill passed Friday in the waning hours of the legislative session includes 68 pages of wide-ranging provisions. They include requiring all hotels to install carbon monoxide detectors in each room, following three poisoning deaths in the same Boone motel room.
Another provision would prevent cities and counties from requiring contractors to pay more than minimum wage or provide employees sick leave to get government business. Durham has had so-called living wage requirements for its contractors since 1998.
The bill now heads to the desk of GOP Gov. Pat McCrory.

LAS VEGAS -- Parents across the country are concerned for their children's safety after the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting that killed 20 children and six adults in Newtown, Conn., last month.
Clark County School District police said they have been ahead of the curve for decades when it comes to protecting students.
They said the department has been a step ahead of most of the country when it comes to protecting schools, but more can be done.
According to district police, it is a fully functioning police department with a crime scene investigation unit, dispatch center and mobile command center.
"This actually serves as our back-up dispatch center," school district police Sgt. Mike Blackeye said. "So (if) something happens to the building, we have evacuation plans to revert to operate the entire department from this vehicle."
The department began with only 25 officers. Over the years that number has grown to about 160, including a chief of police, two captains, five lieutenants, and 17 sergeants.

Breaking Bad is now over, but that doesn't mean that everyone is willing to let go just yet. For one tennis announcer, that meant finding a way to include multiple Breaking Bad references during a 90-minute tennis match between Serena Williams and former Miss Rory McIlroy, Caroline Wozniacki.
The announcer, Kevin Skinner, wasn't too shy or subtle with most of his references, but there were a few that he found a way to sneak in that may have flown under the radar.
Among the references made by Skinner were "have an A1 day," "I am the one who knocks," a shout out to Saul Goodman and even a little homage to Hector Salamanca.
As a huge fan of the Breaking Bad series, it was easy to appreciate the effort.
If you want to check out the references from Skinner, check out the video below:
A few of the references were a little too much and a little forced, but it was still some quality announcing and commentary.
It's not easy to make tennis commentary exciting and entertaining, but this was as close as it can get. Anytime you can show Heisenberg some love, you get an A+ in my book.

reviews & comments (43)
Excellent and so easy! This is a great meal for a large group since it can be prepared ahead and grilled at the last minute.
I only made the yogurt sauce (i.e., I did not stuff the tenderloin with minced chipotles). It was still quite flavorful and my family enjoyed it.
Loved this recipe! And really easy to make. Tasted great together with a simple Spanish rice and homemade guacamole (I would make the guacamole more neutral in taste to balance out the spiciness of the pork tenderloin dish).
I made this recipe last night and recieved a standing ovation! Excellent summer meal that is incredibly easy to make. I did change up a few things that helped to knock it out of the park. 1.) I added Manchengo cheese to the inside of the porklion. Big thick chunks that melted wonderfully over the chipotle peppers. 2.) I wrapped the entire thing in bacon!!! Everything tastes better with bacon.
I made this as written and it was delicious. Don't forget the guacamole - it's spicy. I served it with sauteed peppers and onions and Spanish Rice. Delicious!
Found this to be easy and extremely tasty. Key lime pie goes great to follow -- for a cool down.
This turned out very well. I really like it as did my guests. Served it with a light green salad (citrusy dressing) and black beans (with fresh cilantro) and rice. So simple. Do be careful NOT to over cook. Used the leftover pork to make fried rice (spicy and good) and added asian 5 spice powder. Unusual and good!
im not sure why everyone left comments regarding the heat of this dish, i didnt think it was overly hot at all! ill admit i was a little skeptical at first, since im not really a fan of chipotle to begin with. i was planning on subbing in jalapeno, but at the last minute, i decided to try this recipe out as is. im glad i did because its really changed my opinion of the chipotle pepper. will DEFINITELY be making this again! (i actually have some sauce and peppers left over and am going to use it on some chicken tonight!)
This was great! You must have the guacamole, as it really balances the heat of the peppers. Don't bother with store bought guacamole - the real thing is so quick & easy! I made mine while the tenderloin was sitting for 15 minutes & stuck in the freezer for quick chilling. I used the January 1998 recipe from Gourmet. Highly recommend this recipe!
Really good. Next time, however, I will bank the coals and use more indirect heat as the first side really blackened up quickly with direct heat. The yogurt cumin seed sauce is so good. I am going to try it on other things. This recipe is so easy and fast -- it is a great work/school night dinner as well as equally good for guests.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Loved the way our invitations came out! It was really nice to have a collage of pictures surrounding the invite. It was a nice personal touch of our special moments together. The font/color/picture quality were all great! It's smaller then it seems but it's still perfect!"
"I loved this design and the fact that the middle color was totally customizable. I also sent in a request to have the border color changed, but didn't know if it was possible. When I received my proof, it was EXACTLY the way I wanted it. Love the product and how easy it was to make it personally customized."
"We were so impressed with the quality of our engagement party invitations! We received them so quickly and they were beautiful! Not one hiccup or problem. We will definately come here first for our save the dates and wedding invitations! 5 STAR!!!"
"I was so excited to be able to change the color of this design to help meet the theme of the party I was throwing. Paper was excellent quality and love the square design and envelopes that do not require additional postage. Will definitely order from this company again!"
"Once again our Wedding Paper Diva product was point on. This print is soft, light, and brings plenty of color to set your tone. With that said, don't forget to try different color filters on the flowers. We went with warm and rich orange petrels to match our fall wedding!"

That's why the 2012/2013 season training program has five training phases. The phases are designed around the UEFA Champions League season. And this means keeping up the good work even during winter break:
Phase one: Pre-season conditioning
Phase two: Group stage prep.
Phase three: Winter stage
Phase four: Knock out stage prep.
Phase five: Finals stage prep.
Each of these UEFA Champions League phases will feature José Mourinho's personally prescribed combination of drills. The drills will include different levels of strength, condition and speed to stretch or sustain your game exactly when needed.
The 2012/2013 season training program kicks off on September 1, 2012 on micoach.com/uclgroup
adidas believes that exclusive miCoach programs like this one will help bring a new generation of talent further, faster. Stats are evidence of how more focused training works. So, look sharp, get your gear and let's see you and the new generation of future champions on miCoach. Watch out though.

Shoppers may become combatants in tablet wars
With demand for the devices expected to outpace inventories, consumers could be left empty-handed.
If you think the looming tablet wars are only for tablet makers, think again.
Yes, Microsoft's (MSFT) Surface, Apple's (AAPL) iPad, Amazon's (AMZN) Kindle Fire and the recently added Tabeao from Toys R Us -- which is owned by Vornado Realty Trust (VNO) -- are all competing for attention as the holiday shopping season rolls around.
But when consumers finally make it to the many retailers selling these hot gadgets, they may find themselves duking it out, as inventories of the increasingly popular tablets may not keep up with the seasonal demand.
Consulting firm BDO recently released a survey showing that only 25% of retail CFOs are increasing the amount of merchandise they purchase for the holidays, leaving many parents concerned that they won't be able to fulfill their children's Christmas wishes.
And while retailers do want to please their customers, upping inventory too much could prompt stores to make big post-holiday price cuts, which would carve into their bottom line.
Instead, stores are trying other tactics. Toys R Us is soothing shoppers' worries by letting them "reserve" around 65 of the hottest gadgets, including its new tablet and the Leapfrog 2 tablet, anytime before Halloween, USA Today reports.
Other stores, like Wal-Mart (WMT) and Sears Holdings' (SHLD) Kmart, offer layaway -- sometimes without any fees -- as well.
In the end, retailers still want shoppers clamoring for their products. In fact, the expected tablet demand could help this holiday season be the cherry on top of an already improving sector.
Plus, while the period between Black Friday and Christmas is always a bright spot for retailers, this season it's even brighter. The period is a whopping 32 days, giving shoppers two extra weekends to shop and hopefully spend more.
If consumers are tempted to wait until the last minute, thanks to all that extra time, though, they might just find empty shelves instead of the cool new tablet computer they were hoping to snag.
As of this writing, Alyssa Oursler did not own a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - The heavily-favored Wisconsin Badgers survived a 4th quarter rally by Northern Iowa to win the 2012 season opener at Camp Randall Saturday 26-21.
Montee Ball rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown in the victory, while transfer quarterback Danny O'Brien connected on 19-of-23 passes for 219 yards and two scores.
The Panthers came into the game as one of the best teams in the nation among FCS schools and they showed the big Wisconsin crowd why.
It took the big hand of junior defensive lineman Ethan Hemer tipping a 4th down pass to clinch the win. Northern Iowa was facing a 4th-and-1 in Badger territory at the time.
The Panthers rallied behind their own quarterback, Sawyer Kollmorgen, who passed for 265 yards.
They had trailed 26-7 when Kollmorgen hit wideout David Johnson on 4th quarter scoring passes of 55 and 31 yards. Northern Iowa was at the Badger 41 when Kollmorgen's passed was knocked away.
Jared Abbrederis caught six passes for the Badgers, good for 84 yards and two scores.
The Badgers defense did stop Northern Iowa's ground game cold, holding the visitors to 41 yards rushing. The Panthers hadn't moved the ball past the midfield stripe until less than four-and-a-half minutes remained in the 4th quarter.
The 12th-ranked Badgers travel to Oregon State for a late afternoon non-conference game next Saturday.

Macs as desktops and servers are increasing their penetration in business, even in enterprises. Power users like Mac OS X's interface, bundled apps, and desktop and notebook hardware build quality. Application developers, marketers, and engineers appreciate the tool sets. Datacenter managers approve of Apple's Xserve reliability and versatility as a virtualization platform. But it's not all roses. IT managers, who ultimately must serve these communities' legitimate needs, are faced with some Mac-specific challenges.
The key to successful Mac management in the enterprise is recognition of its unique capabilities and knowing when not to treat it as just another Windows box.
[ Learn what's driving Macs into businesses. | Find out how to make Macs work as part of your business's IT infrastructure. ]
Fortunately, as the Mac has doubled its enterprise presence over the last two years, it's added new management options as well. Much of that growth occurred with Apple's Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard OS, but a good deal of the credit goes to third-party tool vendors.
Your management perspective informs your Mac management strategy
Your best bet for handling Macs depends on your enterprise management perspective. Most organizations fall into one of three: strictly controlling, flexible based on user capability, and application-centric rather than platform-centric. There's a Mac management strategy for each option.
A Windows-centric management philosophy often aims to control every desktop and server at a very fine-grained level, using Windows Group Policy Objects and unified management console. The Mac can play in this arena, but only with third-party tools.
Windows' strict management posture comes from the need to tightly enforce patch management and security policies to prevent virus and other intrusions, for which Windows has a famously large attack surface. The scope of vulnerability for Macs is demonstrably much smaller, and thus Macs don't necessarily require the same detailed control. (However, the Mac does have its own security issues that you should understand.) Many organizations can take a looser approach to management for their Macs.

The Cobb Board of Education has called a special meeting for next week to discuss the proposed SPLOST IV construction and maintenance project list.
The meeting is scheduled from 10 a.m. to noon Monday in the board room of the Cobb County School District central office, 514 Glover St., Marietta.
The board met last week to go over a revised "notebook" (see attached PDF) totalling $717 million in proposed projects that Cobb may be voting on early next year.
At the end of that meeting, board member Alison Bartlett asked for another public meeting to continue finalizing the project list. The board is expected to vote later this month on whether to call for a referendum, which is likely for March 2013.
Among the major revisions is a $3 million permanent classroom addition to replace a temporary annex at Kincaid Elementary School in Northeast Cobb. Included in the original project list is nearly $12 million for a replacement gym at Lassiter High School.
The current SPLOST III collection period ends at the end of 2013. If the one-cent sales tax is extended by voters, the SPLOST IV funds will be collected from Jan. 1, 2013 through Dec. 31, 2018.
Would you vote to continue the SPLOST? Tell us in the comments.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - American Family Insurance of Madison is gearing up for thousands of damage claims connected with massive hail storms from Tuesday in Iowa and Nebraska.
The company sent a catastrophe team to help its local employees deal with damage claims. The storms dumped baseball-sized hail.
American Family alone expects up to 4,000 vehicle damage claims, and 4,500 property claims from the hail. The storms also dumped up to four inches of rain.
Wisconsin has had its share of severe storms, too, during the past couple weeks. One storm in southeast Wisconsin had baseball-sized hail a few days ago.
3.75 inches of rain fell in parts of western Wisconsin Sunday and Monday.

If your New Year's resolution is to lose weight, you know it's going to be a challenge. We all know someone who is a weight loss success story. At FOX 5, that someone is David Ealy. Ealy says after the birth of his son Ellis seven years ago, he started thinking about how his own father had struggled with his weight. He wished his dad had been able to turn things around. That's when he decided he needed to get healthy; for his son, for his wife and for himself.As a satellite coordinator at FOX 5, phone calls, and sometimes stress, are part of the job for Ealy. And for many years, so was food."Anything. Something, just something. But it was all free, even if you weren't hungry, you would eat," said Ealy. As Ealy grew up, he watched his father struggle with his weight. He lost his dad to an aneurysm when he was 16."It was hard for him to get around, even though he could run a little bit. He couldn't run like I could," Ealy said. "I'm 42 now, and he was 43 when he died. That scared me, I said, will I be 43 years old? If I don't hurry up and get myself together, will I be 43 years old and gone? You know."A photo snapped in 2005 with old school rapper Dougie Fresh was David's wakeup call. He remembers staring at it, at himself."I just remember that was the moment that I said, 'I'm done,'" said Ealy. "I said I'm 35. I have a son that's about to be one. And I said, in five years, he's going to want to play football. And I'm not going to be able to hang with him," said Ealy. That day, Ealy cut out the sodas he relied on for energy at work. He stopped taking the elevator to get downstairs to the tape storage room, and taking the stairs instead. And he started rethinking what, and how much, he was eating."I would never say, "I am on a diet." I just changed the way I eat. Because you start saying "diet" and people are like, Oh, I'm on a diet! I didn't say I couldn't eat it, I just didn't," said Ealy. For six months he didn't get on a scale."Because I felt like if I saw it, I'd be like, Okay, let me go back to eating, I'm good -- the regular way that I eat," Ealy said. People started noticing he was slimming down. He lost 10 pounds, then 20, then 30, and then more. He dropped from a size 50 pants to a 40."One of the first experiences I remember was going into the clothing store and not going to the big persons' section. When I tried on the clothes there, and realized that those clothes were actually too big for me. I get chills even thinking about that moment. Even now on my arm. Because it was like, wow. Oh my goodness," explained Ealy.Recently a friend sent David a picture, comparing the old David with the new David. The picture shows how far he's come in his fight to lose weight. Ellis is now eight, and David, 110 pounds lighter, can play with him and be the dad he wants to. "Like I tell anybody, if I can do it, anybody can do it. Because let me tell you, I love food. I just had to get it done. And I can tell you right now, in 2013, I'm very happy I did it," said Ealy.Ealy says his best advice if you want to lose weight, is just do it and stick with it. And on those days you don't feel like going to the gym, just go. He tries to exercise at least four days a week, and the payoff is he feels better than he has in years.
