PR Newswire/Les Echos/ PRESS RELEASE August 5, 2013 GDF SUEZ signs a strategic-partnership agreement with MARUBENI in Portugal GDF SUEZ has signed a strategic-partnership agreement with the Japanese company MARUBENI Corporation with the sale of a 50% stake in its portfolio of thermal and renewable power generation assets in Portugal, representing total installed capacity of 3,300 MW(1). GDF SUEZ will keep a 50% share in the joint venture established by the agreement and along with its new partner will continue to operate and take care of the operational maintenance of the assets. The portfolio is made up of a balanced set of coal- and gas-fired thermal power plants with a capacity of 2,400 MW and renewable assets (mainly wind) with a capacity of 900 MW. This agreement in Portugal further expands the partnership between GDF SUEZ and MARUBENI following the success of previous cooperation and investment in Asia and the Persian Gulf and extends its scope to Europe, with a shared development strategy focusing in particular on renewable energies. Vice-Chairman and President of GDF SUEZ, Jean-François Cirelli said, "I welcome the agreement that has been signed with Marubeni, which is a major partner of GDF SUEZ. It sees us launching a first long -term partnership with MARUBENI in Europe and enables the Group to consolidate its presence on the Portuguese market and pursue its ambition to develop its renewable energy activities in Europe." This partnership also fits into the Group's transformation strategy and will result in a reduction of around EUR600 million of GDF SUEZ's consolidated net debt as of closing and EUR300 million in 2014, after equity consolidation of the joint venture in the Group's accounts(2). Including the full impact of the operation, the progress achieved in the portfolio optimization program will reach almost EUR4 billion out of a EUR11 billion target for 2013-2014. The transaction should be completed in Q3 2013, subject to customary conditions precedent. (1) at 100% (2) From the date of closing until 31 December 2013, the joint venture will be proportionally consolidated in the accounts of the Group. It will be equity consolidated as of 1 January 2014, given the adoption of the new IFRS 11 (Partnerships) standard. This will lead to an additional impact on the net debt of EUR-300 million.

craigslist DNS OutageNovember 24, 2014
At approximately 5pm PST Sunday evening the craigslist domain name service (DNS) records maintained at one of our domain registrars were compromised, diverting users to various non-craigslist sites.
This issue has been corrected at the source, but many internet service providers (ISPs) cached the false DNS information for several hours, and some may still have incorrect information.
If you are unable to reach the craigslist site, please ask your network provider or tech staff to flush all *.craigslist.org and *.craigslist.com entries (A,CNAME,SOA) from their DNS servers.
Our letter to Elliot Kaye, Chairman CPSCNovember 21, 2014
November 21, 2014
Elliot Kaye
Consumer Product Safety Commission
4330 East West Hwy
Bethesda, MD 20814
Dear Chairman Kaye:
I saw your ABC interview, and let me say first that we agree 100% on the product recall process; it's broken, and it absolutely must be fixed.
You rightly lamented to ABC that for a typical recall, 95% of the recalled items are still in the hands of consumers 5 years after the recall notice. ABC noted in its report that hundreds of new recalls, involving many millions of products, are required each year. These figures are utterly shocking.
Imagine our dismay when you and ABC "came out shooting" at craigslist. Last we knew from your representatives, earlier this year, we were taking all appropriate steps to reduce the number of free classified ads for recall items by craigslist users.
Contrary to an assertion you made on ABC, we do not earn any revenue from these free classifieds, and it seems you may have been misinformed as to both our business model and what is involved in moderating free user classified, as opposed to the online retailers to whom you compared us.
I invite you to sit down with me here in San Francisco, to discuss how craigslist can further assist the CPSC in addressing product recalls. I will clear my calendar and make support staff available for meeting with you and relevant CPSC staffers. Since you, personally, have been the one leading the criticism, I trust you agree it will be time well spent for you as CPSC chairman, and I as craigslist CEO, to meet in person.
As added incentive for you to make the trip to the Bay Area (although I imagine you are out here regularly in any event), we also have some practical ideas for curtailing the hundreds of times each year you are left trying to "unring the bell" after millions of faulty products have already been sold to consumers.
Finally, Craig Newmark has been the victim of completely undeserved criticism by you and ABC, despite our informing ABC – weeks BEFORE they ambushed him – that he has not been involved with managing craigslist for over a decade and is not a spokesperson for the business he founded. This is commonplace at Internet companies. Craig is a dedicated philanthropist, and was unjustly defamed by "Recall Roulette."
I look forward to meeting you.
Jim Buckmaster
CEO, craigslist
Hit PieceNovember 20, 2014
We've learned ABC will soon air a misleading story, "Recall Roulette" that mischaracterizes our efforts to prevent free classified ads for recalled sale items by craigslist users, and falsely accuses us of not cooperating with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
Ignoring email and phone calls from craigslist with our side of this "story", ABC News chose instead to ambush our largely-retired founder, Craig Newmark, outside his home on November 11.
This is not responsible journalism. Here is an email from our Director of Government Relations, sent to Brian Ross at ABC on November 4, complete with a follow-up call to make sure he understood it:
Your request for an interview with Craig Newmark was forwarded to me.
Craig has not been involved in management at craigslist for many years, and has no role in government relations. He has never spoken to the CPSC about craigslist policy to my knowledge, and I have been managing goverment relations for craigslist for several years.
On the other hand, I did have a conversation with CPSC folks this spring, including Ray Aragon, Marc Schoem, and Dennis Blasius.
You should know that craigslist (1) prohibits the sale of recalled items; (2) notifies its users that posting recalled items for sale is prohibited; (3) deploys automated systems to help prevent posting of recalled items (4) provides a system whereby users can flag recalled items for removal; and (5) removes recalled items that come to its attention.
Based on what I learned in conversation with CPSC personnel, craigslist has further minimized the posting of recalled items by craigslist users. A very positive result, and one that the CPSC seemed to appreciate.
We have not heard from the CPSC since the conclusion of these productive talks 6 months ago. As always, our door remains open.
This email, and our calls to ABC (not to mention craigslist's progress on recall items in collaboration with CPSC) fell on deaf ears. If you're doing a hit piece, you don't want facts getting in the way.
Recall Roulette? More like Journalistic Ethics Roulette.

Although the Act does not expressly prohibit pre-employment inquiries based on an applicant's race, color, religion, sex, age, disability or national origin, such questions usually bear no demonstrable relationship to a job applicant's abilities or qualifications and, consequently, serve no lawful purpose.

Lemon-Chervil Risotto
- Active Time 35m
- Total Time 35m
Serves 4
The sprightly lemon-licorice flavor of fresh chervil accentuates the lemon zest in the risotto to make a very refreshing side dish that is especially good with fish.
- 2 3/4 cups water
- 2 cups chicken broth
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 shallot, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups arborio rice
- 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh chervil, plus sprigs for garnish
- Zest of 1/2 lemon
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Bring the water and chicken broth to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to low; cover and keep the broth hot.
Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute until just tender, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir until the rice begins to turn opaque, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add 1 cup simmering broth. Cook until the liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining hot broth 1 cup at a time, allowing broth to be absorbed before adding more and stirring frequently until the rice is just tender and the mixture is creamy, about 20 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, chopped chervil, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and lemon zest. Season the risotto to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with chervil sprigs and serve.

Why The NSA Can't Be Trusted to Run U.S. Cybersecurity Programs
Posted By aaron On July 31, 2012 @ 12:34 pm In Big Brother,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled
Electronic Frontier Foundation
July 31, 2012
This week, the Senate will be voting on a slew of amendments to the newest version of the Senate's cybersecurity bill. Senators John McCain and Kay Bailey Hutchison have proposed several amendments that would hand the reins of our nation's cybersecurity systems to the National Security Agency (NSA). All of the cybersecurity bills that have been proposed would provide avenues for companies to collect sensitive information on users and pass that data to the government. Trying to strike the balance between individual privacy and facilitating communication about threats is a challenge, but one thing is certain: the NSA has proven it can't be trusted with that responsibility. The NSA's dark history of repeated privacy violations, flouting of domestic law, and resistance to transparency makes it clear that the nation's cybersecurity should not be in its hands.
In case you need a refresher, here's an overview of why handing cybersecurity to the NSA would be a terrible idea:
Executive Order 12333 signed by President Reagan in 1981 (and amended a few times since1), largely prohibits the NSA from spying on domestic activities:
no foreign intelligence collection by such elements [of the Intelligence Community] may be undertaken for the purpose of acquiring information concerning the domestic activities of United States persons.
If amended, the Cybersecurity Act would allow the NSA to gain information related to "cybersecurity threat indicators," which would allow it to collect vast quantities of data that could include personally identifiable information of U.S. persons on American soil. Law enforcement and civilian agencies are tasked with investigating and overseeing domestic safety. The NSA, on the other hand, is an unaccountable military intelligence agency that is supposed to focus on foreign signals intelligence—and it's frankly dangerous to expand the NSA's access to information about domestic communications.
In the 1960's, a Congressional investigation, led by four-term Senator Frank Church, found that the NSA had engaged in widespread and warrantless spying on Americans citizens. Church was so stunned at what he found, he remarked that the National Security Agency's "capability at any time could be turned around on the American people, and no American would have any privacy left, such is the capability to monitor everything." (emphasis added) The investigation led to the passage of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which provided stronger privacy protections for Americans' communications—that is, until it was weakened by the USA-PATRIOT Act and other reactions to 9/11.
In 2005, the New York Times revealed that the NSA set up a massive warrantless wiretapping program shortly after 9/11, in violation of the Fourth Amendment and several federal laws. This was later confirmed by virtually every major media organization in the country. It led to Congressional investigations and several ongoing lawsuits, including EFF's. Congress passed the FISA Amendments Act to grant telecom companies retroactive immunity for participating in illegal spying and severely weaken privacy safeguards for Americans communicating overseas.Since the FISA Amendments Act (FAA) passed, the NSA has continued collecting emails of Americans. A 2009 New York Times investigation described how a "significant and systemic" practice of "overcollection" of communications resulted in the NSA's intercepting millions of purely domestic emails and phone calls between Americans. In addition, documents obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request by the ACLU, although heavily redacted, revealed "that violations [of the FAA and the Constitution] continued to occur on a regular basis through at least March 2010″— the last month anyone has public data for.
Just last week, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence—which oversees the NSA—begrudgingly acknowledged that "on at least one occasion" the secret FISA court "held that some collection… used by the government was unreasonable under the Fourth Amendment." Wired called it a "federal sidestep of a major section of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act," and it confirmed the many reports over the last few years: the NSA has violated the Constitution.
Because cybersecurity policy is inescapably tied to our online civil liberties, it's essential to maximize government transparency and accountability here. The NSA may be the worst government entity on this score. Much of the NSA's work is exempt from Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) disclosure because Congress generally shielded NSA activities from FOIA2. Even aside from specific exemption statutes, much information about NSA activities is classified on national security grounds. The NSA has also stonewalled organizations trying to bring public-interest issues to light by claiming the "state secrets" privilege in court. EFF has been involved in lawsuits challenging the NSA's warrantless surveillance program since 2006. Despite years of litigation, the government continues to maintain that the "state secrets" privilege prevents any challenge from being heard. Transparency and accountability simply are not the NSA's strong suit.
We remain unconvinced that we need any of the proposed cybersecurity bills, but we're particularly worried about attempts to deputize the NSA as the head of our cybersecurity systems. And even the NSA has admitted that it does "not want to run cyber security for the United States government."
Thankfully, new privacy changes in the cybersecurity bill heading towards the Senate floor have explicitly barred intelligence agencies like the NSA from serving as the center of information gathering for cybersecurity. We need to safeguard those protections and fend off amendments that give additional authority to the NSA. We're asking concerned individuals to use our Stop Cyber Spying tool to tweet at their Senators or use the American Library Association's simple tool to call Senators. We need to speak out in force this week to ensure that America's cybersecurity systems aren't handed to the NSA.

Videos Thru The Year--> Showmanship and Equitation
Hey everyone! :) Now that school is about over, I was able to go to my instructor and get all the videos of me throughout the year. There is showmanship, equitation patterns, and a few shots from my first show! Please critique them and my progress through the year. Thank you!
#1 (2.11.10) Trot circle using gag bit
#2 (2.16.10) Showmanship
#3 (3.3.10) Walk-Trot-Walk using gag bit
#4 (3.4.10) Showmanship
#5 (3.9.10) Equitation Pattern
#6 (3.10.10) Showmanship
#7 (4.1.10) Showmanship
#8 (4.14.10) Showmanship
#9 (4.15.10) Equitation Pattern
#10 (5.2.10) Equitation Pattern at horse show (this pattern is awful and was fully recorded)
Login | Facebook
#11 (5.2.10) Hunter Hack 2' at horse show(got 1st place! give lots of critique!!)
#12 (5.10.10) FINAL Equitation Pattern
#13 (5.12.10) FINAL Showmanship
I can't really comment as I ride primarily English, but your horse has excellent ground manners! I did notice the absense of a helmet cough cough though ;-)
All of those videos above are english type. Even the showmanship, I trained her to go in the english type halter classes.
Everyone has their own opinion on helmets. We aren't required to wear helmets doing flat work but we are for jumping. I know, I know, but it's my choice not to wear it during flatwork.
I know, I meant to say primarily Western xD My mistake! I can count the number of times I've ridden English on one hand
Its okay :)
I didn't get a chance to watch a lot of them since technically I'm supposed to be in the truck driving right now butttt I did watch the horse show ones and one equitation one and I will say that your horse looks EXTREMELY tense and what I'm seeing is a false headset.
Yeah, like I said its not our best thing ever. I got very nervous because its my first show and she can get pattern-happy so that and my nerves combined = not a very pretty picture!
As far as her false headset, I'd encourage you to do a lot of riding while thinking in your head "seat to hands. seat to hands. seat to hands." Ride her forward into the bridle, so she must come into contact, instead of allowing her to assume contact and carry her head so 'uppity' (I really can't describe that.)
Once she starts to engage her hind end and move forward with impulsion and rhythm, her front end will flow freely.
Keep up the good work :)
Thank you! I've been doing a lot of recent work of letting her out and letting her search for the bit while I keep the pace with my body. I'm not quite sure how to describe it but it seems to be working. But its like you said, she seems to memorize the pattern after the first time I work her through it! Mixing it up should help :)

Remember Me
Genesis performed The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway in its entirety over 100
times between November of 1974 and May 22, 1975. The band, especially Gabriel, wanted to
create a visual spectacle to match the ambitiousness of the music and employed masks,
costumes, pyro and photo slides - among other elements - in their theatrical presentation
of the material. Unfortunately none of the full concerts from Genesis's The Lamb Lies
Down On Broadway World Tour were professionally recorded. The closest document we have
is this "reconstruction" of the concert that utilizes fan-shot video, a soundboard
soundtrack, photos and the band's slides from the tour to recreate the January 24, 1975
performance from The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.
Let's take a look at the best available footage of Genesis performing The Lamb Lies

Gordon R. England's appointment to a top Pentagon post in 2006 came at a high price. The Senate committee overseeing his confirmation demanded that he give up lucrative stocks and options he held in companies that do business with the military.
England said he took a big hit on his taxes and lost out on more than $1 million in potential profits that year when he divested himself of interests in companies that included General Dynamics.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.Understanding the actions of other people can be difficult for those with schizophrenia. Vanderbilt University researchers have discovered that impairments in a brain area involved in perception of social stimuli may be partly responsible for this difficulty.
"Misunderstanding social situations and interactions are core deficits in schizophrenia," said Sohee Park, Gertrude Conaway Professor of Psychology and one of the co-authors on this study. "Our findings may help explain the origins of some of the delusions involving perception and thoughts experienced by those with schizophrenia."
In findings published in the journal PLoS ONE, the researchers found that a particular brain area, the posterior superior temporal sulcus or STS, appears to be implicated in this deficit.
"Using brain imaging together with perceptual testing, we found that a brain area in a neural network involved in perception of social stimuli responds abnormally in individuals with schizophrenia," said Randolph Blake, Centennial Professor of Psychology and co-author. "This brain area fails to distinguish genuine biological motion from highly distorted versions of that motion."
The study's lead author, Jejoong Kim, completed the experiments as part of his dissertation under the supervision of Park and Blake in Vanderbilt's Department ofPsychology. Kim is now conducting research in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at Seoul National University in Korea, where Blake is currently a visiting professor.
"We have found that people with schizophrenia tend to 'see' living things in randomness and this subjective experience is correlated with an increased activity in the (posterior) STS," the authors wrote. "In the case of biological motion perception, these self-generated, false impressions of meaning can have negative social consequences, in thatschizophrenia patients may misconstrue the actions or intentions of other peo

Vice President Dick Cheney thinks the recent appointment of Fox News correspondent Tony Snow as White House press secretary was a smart move. "He has a lot of friends in the media and in Washington. He'll do a great job," the Veep said while sipping his second glass of red wine and sampling the crab balls at the network's 10th-anniversary party for "Fox News Sunday."
Even the upstaged guest of honor at the Wednesday night fete at Cafe Milano, Chris Wallace, the show's moderator, couldn't resist calling the event "Tony Snow's going-away party."
The crush of guests — admitted under extremely heavy security that started a block away on either side of the restaurant — included the hosts, media heavyweights Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes, and most of the top presidential contenders for 2008: Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton, John McCain and Bill Frist. Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert and predecessor Newt Gingrich were sighted in the throng along with an impressive contingent of White House staff, including Joshua Bolten, Karl Rove, Karen Hughes and Allan Hubbard.
Georgette Mosbacher sidled up to CBS legend Mike Wallace, there to congratulate his son (who described himself as "58, and still known as the kid"). Also celebrating were Sens. Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, George Voinovich and Norm Coleman; former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay; Gen. Richard Myers; Brit Hume; Vernon Jordan and Terry McAuliffe (two of the rare Democrats there); author Naomi Wolf; Ken Duberstein; Haley Barbour; Jack Valenti; Ted Olson; and Andrea Mitchell.
"The turnout is unbelievable, beyond my wildest imagination," an ebullient Chris Wallace said of the impressive number of "Fox News Sunday" guests who showed up at the party. Better yet: being praised publicly by Mr. Murdoch, the boss of bosses, as "tough, smart and fair."
Guests dined on lamb chops, roast beef and creamy risotto, and the bar was packed three-deep. Getting from one end of the room to the other could qualify as an extreme sport. The candlelit restaurant was emptied of tables and filled instead with comfy sofas and armchairs. People smoked, drank and sometimes had to shout above the din of nattering nabobs.
A few rare and magic moments occurred (all recorded by photographers, of course) as left and right made nice for once. Mr. Jordan was seen bearhugging former Sen. Alan Simpson in one corner just before Mrs. Clinton, wearing a dark pantsuit and vintage brooch, said howdy-do to conservative talk-show host Bill O'Reilly "I'd never met him before," she said as fans circled in a mass embrace.
As the man of the hour, Mr. Snow also stood out in the swirl of celebrities. Tall and chisled, he said he was looking forward to his new gig. Asked to name the most important thing about being a presidential spokesman, he replied, "Don't lie."
One key White House player didn't miss a beat when asked what advice she had for the administration's new lightening rod. "Keep a good sense of humor," Mrs. Hughes said with a laugh. "He's going to need it."

The MSc programme is application-oriented and combines a solid technical engineering knowledge about communication technologies and converging media (mobile phones, Internet and digital TV) with innovation, creativity, market, and user perspectives.
Market, Users and Technology
The combined study of the interplay between the market, the users and the technology is a unique feature of the ICTE programme. All three areas are important. The ICTE programme thus combines ICT engineering with economics and user studies. You will get a broad insight into the new technologies and their potential and will be capable of transforming this knowledge into innovative applications, services and solutions, which target the needs of users in their daily life.
As a student you will also learn about the latest development in information, communication and media technologies, and you will learn to understand the market-related, regulatory and ethical framework for their application. An important part of this is to identify relevant user needs and understand how users interact with the technologies and perceive them as value-adding.
You will learn how to develop user-friendly concepts, applications and services with a real business potential and to analyse the use of information and communication technologies in companies and organisations, where they often play a central role for company strategies, work processes and knowledge sharing.
The programme is based on a high degree of group work - we practice Problem-Based Learning. You'll have lectures, seminars, individual work and project work in groups. Your work will be project-based. All projects must include both a technical solution to a practical problem and considerations of the organizational and economic aspects, which are necessary for the solution to be applied in practice.
All courses are taught in English.

You have to hang that wet film somewhere to dry. I got a roll of wire and a bag of wooden clothes pins. I drilled a little hole in the end on one side of the clothes pins and strung the wire through the holes so all the pins are permanently hanging on the wire. Then you just need a box of clips to weight down the bottom as the rolls dry.
You will also want a small light box if you don't already have one. And your own pair of scissors.

Mark, the store manager, was patient and helpful as we looked for a guest bedroom mattress. He listened to our concerns and offered options - even suggested some parameters for consideration. Felt he was looking to fill our needs, including financial considerations.
I bought a mattress from this place less than 4 weeks ago. After sleeping in it for two weeks I noticed that the mattress started to buckle. When I say buckle I mean that when I got out of the bed there was an inch indentation still left in the mattress. I called the store to complain and spoke to Abe who basically told me that this is what I should expect for the amount of money that I paid. I don't expect any brand new mattress to buckle after sleeping on it for just two weeks. That is totally unacceptable. They refused to refund my money but offered to swap the mattress for another one however, he was quick to advise me that I would have the same problem even if I swapped it for another one of equal value. If this place cannot sell quality mattresses at affordable prices then they should be selling them at all. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS PATHETIC PLACE. and if you're reading this review I hope you will take my advice.
We bought the high end serta mattress set and after a couple of years we couldn't stand to sleep on it. It was saying so bad it hurt our backs. They said it was covered by the warranty and we choose to go with the Stearns and foster high end set. We had to even pay more money. The same thing had happened. Within a year and a half this set was saying too. It's not like we are heavy. My husband weighs 190 lbs and I weigh 105. Apparently they sell bad quality mattress at high end prices. Don't shop there! We are not even going too deal with getting new mattress through warranty again. I want a bed that is comfortable and will hold up for several years. Losing alot of money but we will be shopping somewhere else.
This is what I submitted to the company and NEVER recieved a response from:
I just wanted someone to know of my experience with your company. On Thanksgiving weekend 2010, my husband and I went into our local store to purchase a mattress that we saw in an ad. We were told that the mattress advertised was "no good" and were talked into spending $500 more than we had anticipated for a mattress. Afraid to remove the plastic in case we wanted to return it, we slept horribly for one night on the plastic covered bed. When I called the next day to tell our salesperson that the mattress was very uncomfortable, I was told that you really can't tell how the mattress feels without removing the plastic and the hardness was just from the plastic. So, we removed the plastic and slept decently for about 6 months (couldn't return it because we had taken the plastic off). Then after 6 months, the mattress developed a large size indention in the middle of the bed. After calling and inconveniently meeting inspectors at my house in the middle of a work day, I received a letter stating that I could exchange my mattress. We returned to the location where we originally purchased the mattress only to be sent to THREE different local stores that day to find someone to help us to exchange. It was something about the computer system not letting them exchange it because we had financed it. Of course, they no longer sold our mattress. Our options were to do an even exchange for what we were told was a way less superior mattress or spend an extra $300 for a better mattress. We went with the better mattress thinking that finally our nightmare would be over. Wrong. Four months into this mattress and there are two large dips! And still is not what I would consider a comfortable mattress. One day we removed the mattress cover sold to us by your company (we were told that you strongly advise buying this mattress cover because it won't let spills stain the mattress if we should ever need to return it - another $60!) to wash it and needed to sleep on the mattress before the cover was dry, so we put the sheets on without the cover. What a great night sleep we got! That mattress cover is horrible and it took us over a year of uncomfortable sleep to figure it out! I don't care about staining the mattress without the cover because I would just assume burn the mattress than have to deal with another exchange, which is why I will not call about the two dips on our new one. Also, I purchased the "I love my pillow" from your company and after several months of sleeping on this, it is flat and uncomfortable as well. Needless to say, I am not happy. I just wanted someone to know the ordeal we have had with your company and see how you handle it before I put this exact statement on review boards.
About Mattress Warehouse and Sleep Outfitters, the founder's (Kim Knopf) and the company's motto is name brand bedding at the lowest price and great customer service. They also offer a comfort guarantee. However, they don't stand behind the quality of the products they sell. We purchased a Stearn's & Foster Governor's Palace pillow top mattress with Smart Latex. It was as comfortable as the sales representative claimed. So comfortable, we took the plastic off after 3 weeks. At 6 weeks, there were noticeable depressions 1.3 inches. We contacted customer service. Response: Sorry, you took the plastic off and the depression are not greater than Manufacture's (Sealy) specification (greater than 1.5) please contact the manufacture in 6 months. We appealed; they said they took it up with the manufacture Sealy. 3 Weeks later not a word. They say bedding is their business and no one does it better. Yes, they took several thousand dollars. However, they have left us low and lumpy with a defective product. No bed should have 1.4 inch canyons after 9 weeks. My recommendation is don't buy Stern's and Foster and buy bedding from a company that will stand behind the quality of products they sell. Saving a couple hundred bucks but ending up with a several thousand dollar washboard is not a good deal.

The state collected more than $1 billion more than expected in taxes, and a Republican lawmaker wants to put that towards the state's unpaid bills. In particular, one past-due bill – the $112-million in back wages owed to state employees, which State Senator Sam McCann of Carlinville calls the oldest bill in the state's backlog.
The backlog is estimated to stand at $5.6-billion by the end of June. The extra tax revenue is due to lawmakers underestimating what would be collected from income, sales and utility taxes in last year's budget. The Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability says that's a one-time only occurrence that shouldn't be factored into next years budget.

The collapse of politics and the advent of corporate totalitarianism mean we must rely on a class of people whose sole vocation is revolution.
Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges and political philosopher Sheldon Wolin conclude their eight-part series on American democracy and corporate capitalism with conversations about the consequences of relentless totalitarianism, the nature of participatory democracy and how to think about the possibility of revolution.
In the fourth and fifth installments of their long conversation on corporate capitalism and American democracy, Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges and political philosopher Sheldon Wolin discuss the concept of "inverted totalitarianism," Wolin's experience as a university professor and the expulsion of unorthodox academics in the postwar United States.
Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges embarks on a long, ranging discussion with political philosopher and former professor of politics at Princeton University Sheldon Wolin on the state of American democracy and the rise of corporate capitalism.
Two leading political philosophers, Sheldon Wolin and John Ralston Saul, explore the corporations' slow-motion coup d'état and the prospects of financial collapse and revolt.
Civil disobedience must be used to abolish the oil, gas and coal companies and replace a government held captive by corporations. Otherwise, we will say goodbye to life as we know it.
The abandonment of Gazans, some of the planet's most powerless people, illustrates how all who are vulnerable are now routinely sacrificed by our political elites.
Paine did for the American Revolution what we must do for our present-day revolution against the corporate state: He created a political language that exposed the realities of despotic power and demanded a rational response.
AP/Manuel Balce Ceneta
If we fail to halt the state's wholesale intrusion into our private lives, exposed by the Snowden leaks, we will find ourselves living under a ruthless totalitarian system. (At right, NSA Director Keith Alexander.)

The American public is suffering from an education deficit; a growing dearth of critical thinking which generates the ideology of the big lie—the myth that the free-market system is the only mechanism available to safeguard democracy and ensure human freedom.
Peter Lang Publishing
It is difficult to imagine how a society in which a financial elite and megacorporations control almost every aspect of politics could possibly be mistaken for a democracy.

Art-in-Motion, a newly-announced partnership of Imagining America, Open Hand Theater, and Syracuse Stage, is an experimental, hands-on project that will include conversations and performances centered on activating the arts and stimulating urban redevelopment in Syracuse.
Art-in-Motion includes four conversations bringing visiting scholars and artists together with Syracuse residents to discuss the impact of art connecting and strengthening communities. The centerpiece of Art-in-Motion is a communal practical art project whereby residents will create giant puppets and theatrical scenes reflecting their neighborhood identities, culminating in a citywide street performance with the finished puppets in mid-September.
Visiting scholars
The conversations kick off Wednesday, March 3 at the Warehouse in downtown Syracuse with an 8:30 a.m. breakfast talk featuring renowned multi-media artist Barnaby Evans, creator of the famous WaterFire installation in Providence, RI, that includes 100 bonfires on the city's three downtown rivers. Evans will discuss the relevance of WaterFire-which has attracted over ten million visitors, bringing life to downtown Providence-in context of Syracuse's ongoing revitalization efforts.
The Art-in-Motion partners hope to bring together an audience comprised of people from different sectors of Central New York-including business, higher education, the arts, and government, and from across the city's diverse neighborhoods. "The visiting scholars and artists will extend our understanding of cultural participation in development as relevant to both local and national initiatives across the US," says Jan Cohen-Cruz, IA director and University Professor at Syracuse University.
Funding for the four conversations leading up to the final performance comes from a New York Council for the Humanities (NYCH) grant. Funding for the final collaborative performance comes from a Chancellor Leadership Project grant, initiated by SU President and Chancellor Nancy Cantor.
Citywide performance in September
The arts conversations will culminate in Art-in-Motion: A Citywide Performance, a large-scale street show starring Syracuse residents, staff from Open Hand Theater and Syracuse Stage, and SU students, in collaboration with SU's Office of the University Arts Presenter. Open Hand Theater's Geoff Navias and Syracuse Stage's Lauren Unbekant will work with different city neighborhoods over the next few months, developing and creating the puppet and theatrical scenes. SU students through the College of Visual and Performing Arts Drama Department's Art in Action Class will assist and participate while learning about the community.
For more on the first conversation or to RSVP, email email@example.com or call 443-8590. For more on the featured artist, visit Barnaby Evans website at: waterfire.org/about-waterfire/welcome

OSU football: Receiver Charlie Moore is the spring finale's big surprise
He blew those numbers away with one spring Saturday.
And he blew away the fans, several of whom sought Moore out for autographs and photos on the field when it was all over.
Just the way he envisioned it?
"I wish I could say that," Moore said. "I just woke up this morning. It was a good day. I came out here, just wanted to have fun with the guys. It turned out to be a good scrimmage."
Another surprise: Moore can really run, evident on his first touchdown, a 59-yard catch and romp that saw him run away from several defensive backs for the score.
"The really good thing, I didn't realize, he had that much speed," Dunn said. "When he took that and ran away from a couple of our guys … that's a 6-2 guy who can really run, too. That was the nice thing for us.
"There really hasn't been a live situation — I've seen him catch posts down the field, I've seen him run by guys — but to see him catch something short and take it 50, 60 — that's big."
Finding receivers was a key quest of the spring for the Cowboys, who lose Blackmon, Josh Cooper and Colton Chelf. Dunn said he was pleased with the developments, particularly the play of Moore.
There's still work to be done, with Moore still viewed as a backup to Tracy Moore and Isaiah Anderson on the outside. But in the Cowboys' offense, there's plenty of room and reps in the rotation. And the two Moores give OSU a pair of big targets, with each at 6-2 and approaching 210 pounds.
Tracy enjoyed a strong game, too, catching four passes for 82 yards and two scores.
That tandem seems to be striking quite a relationship, too.
Before his first real media session, Charlie was summoned by Tracy for a photo with him and his family.
"They're starting to call us 'salt and pepper,'" Charlie said. "That's been our spring nickname.
"If you noticed, every time we'd score, we'd go over and wipe the 'Moore' off our jersey. It's our little deal."

The Cleveland Spine Review is one of more than 30 courses of a similar theme, throughout the United States, that will be supported by Misonix during the year.
As reported recently by Isador H. Lieberman, M.D., MBA, FRCSC and orthopedic surgeon at the Scoliosis & Spine Tumor Center, Texas Back Institute and Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Plano, TX, "The BoneScalpel is a safe and effective bone cutting device that can be used to facilitate osteotomies in a variety of spine surgeries. This device may obviate the need for and risk of high speed burrs and oscillating saws during spine surgery. It's a very versatile and safe device, with multiple applications to carve and craft bone."
The BoneScalpel is a tissue specific osteotomy device capable of safely making precise cuts through bone and hard tissue while largely preserving delicate soft tissue structures. It offers the convenience and speed of a power instrument without the danger associated with rotary sharps. To date, reported uses of the product in spine surgery include laminectomy, laminotomy, laminoplasty, corpectomy, spinal deformity, foraminotomy, facetectomy and other procedures performed by orthopedic and neuro surgeons.
"We are very pleased to continue to demonstrate our commitment to clinician education by participating in this unique event that brings together spine surgeons and affiliated personnel from around the United States and certain foreign countries," said Michael A. McManus, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Misonix. "Being able to exhibit and demonstrate our state-of-the-art technology at this prestigious course exemplifies our determination to provide products to the medical community that can directly impact patient outcomes."

Victoria Beckham stays sumptuous at NY fashion week10 september 2012, 18:54
With her smiling and supportive soccer star husband David Beckham in the front row, Beckham eschewed the edginess of many of this season's looks by sticking to the feminine lines that she does best.
"We focused on texture this year more than on color," she told AFP backstage after her show at the New York public library, pointing out the use of chiffon and graphic lace.
One of the surprises was the footwear: not just strappy high-heel boots, but also flat sandals, created by Manolo Blahnik.
Beckham, who first showed in New York in 2008 when her collection was made up of just 10 pieces, was especially proud of her more tailored looks and the daring yet smart lingerie under sheer silk.
"I pushed it a little bit further," she said.
"I was also really excited to bring trousers this season, with seaming details... I want women to feel good, to feel empowered and confident," she explained.
"The collection is versatile, modern, and there is an ease about it," added Beckham, as her husband proudly cradled their year-old daughter Harper in his arms nearby. "There isn't a thing out there that I wouldn't wear myself."
Beckham prudently chose to show in an early time slot Sunday, getting a jump on a raft of big-name designers and labels including Diane von Furstenberg, Tommy Hilfiger, DKNY and Thakoon Panichgul.
Also showing Sunday was Tracy Reese, riding a wave of publicity after First Lady Michelle Obama picked one of her dresses to wear for her speech at the Democratic National Convention.
