Oct. 29, 2012, 3:43 AMHurricane Sandy has caused the grounding of over 6,800 commercial flights so far. The cancellations are likely to hurt Q4 earnings, says consultant R.W.

In addition to authorizing a spending bill, the Senate has also passed a measure that would give the transportation secretary the authority to stop U.S. airlines from complying with an EU scheme to cut carriers' carbon emissions. The bill, which now has to be reconciled with a House measure, ups the pressure on the UN's aviation organization to formulate a global alternative to the EU law.| Sep. 23, 2012, 3:54 AM | 2 Comments
Aug. 28, 2012, 5:25 AMAs fuel costs rise and airlines cut capacity, they've increased their international partnerships and joint ventures on specific routes, and become "metal neutral." That means it's less important to carriers whether a passenger flies on their planes or on a partner's, as they're sharing the money and co-ordinating schedules. | Aug. 28, 2012, 5:25 AM

Should the tight regulation on foreign ownership of U.S. airlines be reconsidered? That's the question posed by industry watcher George Hobica as he can't help but notice the bubbly profits and efficiencies the beer industry kicks up with foreign ownership the norm.

Dealmaking will probably be less frenetic at this week's Farnborough Airshow than in previous years and at Paris in 2011.

The global airline industry will likely post a second consecutive year of net profit declines, says the IATA, as the impact of the eurozone debt crisis offsets the boost from lower oil prices, stronger-than-expected growth in passenger traffic and an improved freight market. The expected industry net profit of $3B is less than half the $7.9B of 2011, and a far cry from 2010's $15.8B.| Jun. 11, 2012, 4:34 AM | 1 Comment

The global airline industry is nowhere near a recovery, and profitability will remain under pressure amid high oil prices, IATA exec Tony Tyler says.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
The abortion clinic was under siege, surrounded. It looked like a scene from a B cowboy-and-Indian movie because it had been constructed about three miles out of the village and back a good five hundred yards from the highway. It resembled a wagon train, isolated, vulnerable, under attack.
There was a nicely maintained lawn in front of it, a small parking lot behind the wood building, and behind that was a field and woods. The building itself looked nothing like a medical structure. It seemed more like someone's home, a two-story Colonial revival with a simple entry porch, the whole building in a soft, Wedgwood blue, the windows with curtains and flower boxes. There were two wide redwood chairs and a small redwood settee on the front lawn.
It was at least a half mile to the next structure in any direction. The clinic had been deliberately placed where there would be a sense of privacy. The patients who came didn't feel under surveillance. Not until today, that is. Today the clinic was under attack.
Upwards of fifty members of the militant Shepherds of God surrounded the building and moved in a circle. They wore no special uniforms. Most of them looked like ordinary people, housewives, gentlemen. A few of the men even wore shirts and ties. Some of them waved welded iron crosses, a number of them ominously sharpened at all ends. About a dozen beat on tin drums. Most of the women carried dolls streaked with blood. All chanted, "Murder, murder, murder."
Dr. Carla Williams stood inside the front entrance, facing the closed front doors like the palace guard, her arms folded over her bosom. Her two patients, both women in their early twenties, hovered behind her in the lobby. Millie Whittaker, the fifty-two-year-old receptionist, was on the telephone, screaming hysterically at the state police dispatcher. Two nurses lingered in the examination-room doorway. All eyes were on Dr. Williams.
One of those porcelain dolls streaked with blood came through the front window and shattered on the tile floor, the shards of glass falling in and around it. Everyone except Dr. Williams screamed.
"Bastards," she muttered. She was thirty-eight, divorced, the mother of two girls, one ten, the other twelve. Despite her five feet six inches of height and 128 pounds, she presented a formidable appearance: determined, unmoved, resourcefully independent. She had become one of the area's most well known advocates of women's rights, appearing at many panel discussions and debates, and often as the guest speaker at dinners. She took on all opponents without discrimination: priests, rabbis, archconservatives, wishy-washy politicians.
Without warning the fanatical right-to-lifers had descended on her clinic. Usually a demonstration like this came only after bitter charges made in the media, well publicized so they would get more media coverage and attract an audience of sympathizers.
This morning, however, their cars just suddenly lined the highway and it appeared that more were coming. Carla saw them as moralistic locusts, religious demagogues who would have their way or else.
Suddenly a storm of rocks penetrated every window in the clinic.
"Back away!" Carla shouted.
Her two patients rushed out of the lobby and into the corridor, screaming. The nurses guided them to safer quarters.
"Where are the police?" Carla shouted.
"On their way," Millie cried. She lowered herself as a rock bounced off the counter.
"Murder, murder, murder..."
The circle was tightening. Their chanting grew louder. More rocks were thrown. It had the effect of an earthquake shaking the very foundations of the building.
"They can't do this to me," Carla muttered. "This is America."
She had defeated a womanizing, degenerate of a husband in court despite his high-priced legal representation; she had built a lucrative practice, and she was successfully raising two children while maintaining an active medical career. A bunch of religious fanatics would not make her back away another inch. She had faced down these people many times before; she would do it again.
With a surge of courage, she seized the doorknob.
"Doctor Williams!" one of the nurses called.
"Stay back," she said. Carla stepped out on the small porch and the maddening circle slowed its tightening and shrinking. Rocks pelted the sides of the building and some kicked out the jagged pieces of glass that lingered in window frames, but even that came to an end in the face of this unexpected appearance.
"How dare you do this?" Carla screamed at the distorted faces of rage that faced her. They all looked like they wore the same mask. "There are people in here with families, just like the rest of you, and you are terrifying them and harming them. Where's your Christianity? You are violating laws, destroying property."
Some of the crowd wilted, but others simply stared. Carla walked down the steps and paused on the sidewalk to glare back at the protesters.
"I want you all off my property this moment, do you hear? Get off!"
She waved her fist at them.
"Move away!"
No one moved. Then the chanting started again, low at first, but building and building in volume and intensity: "Murder, murder, murder..."
Another rock was thrown and then another pounded the side of the building. One hit the porch floor.
Deep down in her gut, Carla felt a surge of fear that she hadn't felt since she was a little girl who had found herself alone on a dark night. All that was primeval in her being, her instinctive alarms, rang. Her organs cringed, her heart contracted, and her blood pounded and rushed from her head.
She was going to turn, back up, wait for the police, but without warning, seeming coming from the ground itself, one of those sharpened crosses flew into her chest, cracking the bone like brittle candy and slicing her heart in two. The last thing she heard was the distant, far-too-late sound of sirens before crumpling to the walkway, lowering the flag of life on her thirty-eight years, her medical education, her love for her children, her promising future.
Someone shouted, "Death to Satan!" and the crowd cheered.
Undaunted, they stood their ground and continued to chant, "Murder, murder, murder..." as the police began to arrive and rush from their vehicles: a cavalry that had come far too late to save this wagon train.

The Must-Have Book for Parents,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Organizing the Disorganized Child: Simple Strategies to Succeed in School (Paperback)
Organizing the Disorganized Child is one of the best books I read in 2009. It is written clearly and simply with excellent organizing ideas. This book is so detailed in its descriptions (and photos) that I recommend it to teachers whenever I speak with them about creating a consistent classroom culture. I highly recommend this book to every family of kids and tweens, not just families who feel disorganized. It's an important contribution to the parenting literature and will be enjoyed by teachers, parents and even intelligent kids who wish to better understand their organizing style.

Voters in Mequon's 8th Aldermanic District returned longtime alderwoman Pam Adams to the Common Council. Adams, first elected in 1994, had 491 votes to challenger Nancy Anderson's 401 votes.
Reached at a small election night party at her home, Adams said she is very happy.
"I appreciate the support of the district and will continue to represent their interest in furthering Mequon's future," she said.
Adams has not faced any opposition in 12 years but said she campaigned hard.
"I did a lot of door to door and I find that very inspiring," she said.

Original article URL: http://bridgemi.com/2012/04/guest-column-parolable-lifers-are-safe-to-release-expensive-to-keep/
10 April 2012
By Paul D. Reingold/University of Michigan Law School
In the public debate over how to save money in corrections, one group is consistently overlooked — the roughly 850 "parolable lifers" who are eligible for release. Paroling just half of them could save about $16 million a year.
And the risk to the public would be almost zero.
In Michigan, serious offenses short of first-degree murder are punishable by parolable life or a term of years — whichever the sentencing judge chooses. By statute, parolable lifers have to serve a minimum of either 10 or 15 years, depending on when they committed the crime.
As a practical matter, for decades lifers who behaved well in prison would be released in about 15 years. Judges, Michigan Department of Corrections administrators and parole board members expected lifers to be evaluated just like people who committed similar crimes, but received sentences of 15-30 or 20-40 years. As Frank Buchko, a parole board member from 1962-1974, said: "The fact that someone was a lifer … had no bearing on the case. The only question was whether or not the person would be a threat to society if released."
Parole policies changed dramatically in 1992, after the board changed from civil service to political appointees. From 1992 to 2005, the board followed the mantra that "life means life." It released almost no lifers.
Michigan parole rates 1990-2011
Then its policies loosened up some. Since mid-2005, the board has released 101 parolable lifers (not counting lifers imprisoned for drug crimes). Of the 101 paroled, just two have been returned to prison for technical violations, and one has been returned for committing retail fraud. This recidivism rate of 3 percent is consistent with the historical data.
Parole-eligible lifers tend to share a number of characteristics.
They are much older than the average prisoner. Although nearly 100 were younger than 18 when they committed their offenses, and more than 200 were under 21, their median age is now around 55. The 700 or so who became eligible for parole after 10 years (because of the date when they committed their crime) have now served, on average, about 30 years.
The parolable lifers are not "the worst of the worst." Although their crimes were serious, many were situational. About half the lifers are serving their first prison term. Most have excellent institutional records. The fact that they have served far longer than thousands of people who committed comparable offenses, but who were given term-of-years sentences, is often not what their sentencing judges intended.
It appears that the parole board has once again lost interest in releasing more than a handful of non-drug parolable lifers. From April 2011 – March 2012, it has chosen to proceed in just nine cases.
The board's lack of urgency is not the only hurdle parolable lifers face. Since 1992, the board only has to review lifers every five years. No interview is required: a single board member can peruse the file and indicate "no interest" in proceeding.
When the board does decide to proceed, the sentencing judge or that judge's successor can stop the process with a written objection. The judge does not have to state any reason for objecting and the decision cannot be appealed. In the last five years, 39 lifers have had their paroles vetoed — 38 by successor judges who had no involvement in the original case.
The parolable lifers are a unique population that has been whipsawed by changes in policy, practice, and personnel. No matter how much they have earned a second chance, constant turnover on the parole board makes it difficult for them to get consistent consideration. As they age and develop health issues, they are becoming increasingly costly to house. Each decision to continue a lifer for five years costs taxpayers about $200,000. Fairness, good sense, and economics all suggest that paroling more lifers is a sound strategy for reducing prison spending

"Risk is Zero"……..grandiose statement that would have to be proven 'after the fact'. I can't quite get my arms around it.
Totally agree with you. However, that is not a statement that I saw in the article. Is from another source?
I would like to see the recommendations of Prof. Reingold be given serious consideration by the State of Michigan.
This is a reasonable proposal but it does not include the rest of the discussion. What would become of the person after release? In today's economy what is the chance that someone age 55 or older with a prison record and no prior work experience can hope to find a job? He would not be eligible for social security or have any retirement savings. What about health coverage? Do we just toss a parolee onto the street or do we invest in support so that he can build a life?
Justice would be served by improving the parole process, but let's not count on saving lots of money.

Not Good...Not Good at all. Total Disappointment. The back is very thick, increasing the bulk of the phone such that it cannot be carried in the pocket. Plus is a dust magnet, and makes it all the more difficult to hold. I'd say avoid at all cost. Takes away from the comfort and usability of the phone.

Topic: Septic Systems
Title: Native plants for septic field
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:We have a new Septic tank and field and I want to plant native seeds on the field instead of grass. Are there particular packages of seed that I can purchase or what else would you recommend?
ANSWER:If only it were that easy-buy a couple packages of seeds, sprinkle them around, and up pops a wildflower meadow. Unfortunately, that's not the way it works. Read our How-To Article "Meadow Gardening". It really explains the process far better than we could. Then, go to this list of Suppliers for the Austin area, find one convenient to you, and they will be able to help you with the plants you need, seeds, etc. In fact, since you live in Austin, you could come to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center Spring Plant Sale this weekend, April 12 and 13, shop for plants, talk to gardeners who can help you, and even visit the Native Plant Society of Texas tent for seeds and more plants.

Thanks Fred!! You found the perfect ski hill for so many January days in Vermont. In fact, I've been out on quite a few days when, if it weren't for the fact that Bromley was spinning lifts, I wouldn't be skiing in Vermont. I'm not really a fair weather skier but, I have to tell you that it is nothing short of delicious to look over at Stratton and think, "man, I envy nobody over there," on a particularly nasty day. If I happened to have 2 or 3 kids and was unencumbered by the daily grind, I'd have to put Bromley up against Smuggs as a potential home base. Only reason to pick Smuggs is for far sicker turns for Daddy. With 1300' and not so broad shoulders, Bromley isn't going to have you reaching for your heart meds while planning your next 10 turns. That being said, skiers of any ability won't be disappointed here. Try something like Sunder, staying left and getting into Avalanche Glade or, perhaps, staying far skier's right on either Stargazer or Havoc for some pretty interesting turns. Anyone not requiring air between boots and snow will be thrilled here. Walk into the lodge, rub your hands near the massive stone hearth, see the smiles on faces from ages 4-84, have a PBR upstairs in honor of Fred Pabst (they really have a pretty good beer selection) and know that enjoying the winter at places like this with each other is a huge part of why we click in in the first place.

Variety reports:
Mandalay Independent Pictures has acquired screen rights to "Salvation Boulevard," the upcoming mystery novel by Larry Beinhart. George Ratliff will write the script and direct. . . .
"Salvation Boulevard," to be published in the fall by Nation Books, has a satirical bent targeting organized religion.
The story revolves around a private detective who investigates the killing of a professor. The exercise proves to be a clash of faiths: The detective is a born-again Christian, the dead man an atheist, the accused killer an Islamic foreign student and the D.A. is Jewish.
"The book uses a mystery to examine the religious process, the mega-churches and how they manipulate minds," said Mandalay prexy Cathy Schulman. "It is tricky terrain, but George is a filmmaker with a distinguishable voice.
Beinhart previously wrote "American Hero," which was adapted into the 1997 Hollywood-D.C. satire "Wag the Dog."
Ratliff, who directed the thriller "Joshua," covered the hard-line faith biz in the docu "Hell House." . . .
Whoo-ee. I liked Hell House (2001) well enough, but I have not seen Joshua (2007), so I haven't a clue what to expect.

Fixed-Price - Entry Level ($) - Est. Budget: $150 - PostedSkills: Adobe InDesign Creative & Talent Mobile UI Design
I am working at PlacePass (https://www.placepass.com/), and we are interested in mocking up a first UI/UX version of our mobile app. Initially, we are only looking to have a single page done (our launch page), and then we will explore continuing to the rest of the app if everything goes well. The end result should be an Adobe InDesign file (INDD). We want someone to be creative and design something that is clean and fitting with the style/spirit of our website; this will potentially require many iterations. We will require you to sign an NDA before I send along the wireframe sketch.

Understanding the Messages of Your Body
by Jean-Pierre Barral, DO
Written for the General Public.
Click here to purchase this insightful book.
We are all born with certain parts of our bodies that are less healthy than others, and as the stresses and traumas of life accumulate, these areas become what Jean-Pierre Barral calls our bodies' "weakest link." This is especially the case with our internal organs.
In this book, Barral discusses each organ and its complex relationship with the rest of the body, explaining how pain can originate with an emotional upset that creates distress in an organ, or how a physically damaged organ can cause emotional problems.

A report on ITV's premium-rate interactive services has identified "serious editorial issues" with a £7.8 million reimbursement package to be launched.
Auditing firm Deloitte has examined all programs in which the viewing public had the chance to participate in over the last two years, after serious allegations arose of viewers being misled.
ITV chairman Sir Michael Grade ordered the review after problems with premium rate phone-in services emerged, including viewers reportedly being charged for competitions in which they had no chance of winning due to their geographical locations, as well as allegations that contests remained open even when a winner had already been selected.
Commenting on today's findings, Sir Michael confirmed that a "comprehensive scheme" would be launched to reimburse affected customers, with unclaimed amounts donated to charity.
"I am also on the record as saying that I take a zero tolerance stance," he continued, "and that means not tolerating a culture that condones audiences being deliberately misled, or not getting the service they have been offered. In some instances there has been disciplinary action, but I don't intend to take a couple of token scalps in expiation. That would not solve the problem.
"As I've said, those involved thought they were working to make the best programmes. The effective solution is to change the culture, to change the systems, to understand the importance of trust."
He added: "Let me say finally, on behalf of ITV, that we deeply regret what has happened and how sorry we are for breaking trust with our viewers."
The report found "serious editorial issues" in Soapstar Superstar 2007, Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway 2005 and 2006 and Ant and Dec's Gameshow Marathon 2005, and technical problems with interactive voting on The X-Factor, among others.
Sir Michael cancelled all premium rate phone-ins, interactive votes and competitions in March, while Deloitte carried out its investigation.
Though phone voting eventually returned to most programmes, quiz channel ITV Play has been abandoned after call volumes declined dramatically.

There are some ActiveX controls we use that only work in IE so for those specific applications I have to open the links in IE but for the rest of the link I open them all in Firefox, so I have set my default browser to Firefox and when I receive a link like that I copy paste its URL in IE and open it there, Now I was wondering if there is a small free application that can help with that? for example when I right click on a link - in an email- I can select to either open it in IE or FF
Use IE tab extension for Firefox. You can click on the link, it will open in ff, but then you can just click on the ie tab button to switch to ie. If you have an often-visited URL that needs to be open in IE all the time, you can set that up in IE tab's preferences.
[edit] There is also a small application called Browser Selector, which you could try. I have never used it so use at your own risk
You can use Avant Browser Ultimate 2012 with Gecko and WebKit core.
It is very useful and more stable.

Genetics, epigenetics and exposomics: novel methods to study gene-by-environment interactions
Estoril, Portugal - December 02-03, 2015
Download the Scientific Programme
The contribution of genetic factors to development of asthma and COPD is very complex and interactions between different genes, or between genes and the environment, complicate inferences even further. The number of studies incorporating gene-environment interactions is increasing and it becomes more and more clear that genetics do not explain all the inheritance associated with asthma and COPD and that environmental exposures such as cigarette smoking and air pollution can affect the susceptibility and severity of airways disease.
From epidemiologists to mathematicians and from clinicians to environmental experts, this event gathered experts from around the world who explored the following three topics in-depth:

Product Description
Product Description
Royal Purple's API-licensed Synthetic Motor Oil combines premium base oils with proprietary additive technologies to create high performance motor oils that optimize engine performance. Royal Purple's API-licensed motor oil delivers superior protection and improves performance in gasoline and diesel engines. Royal Purple's API-licensed SN motor oil meets ILSAC GF-5 and Dexos1 performance requirements.
No special procedures are necessary when upgrading to Royal Purple. Royal Purple recommends waiting until the manufacturer's first scheduled oil change in new gasoline and diesel engines before upgrading to Royal Purple.
Royal Purple motor oil is compatible with synthetic and conventional motor oils.
Performance Advantages
- Better wear protection--Enhanced additive technology prevents metal-to-metal contact beyond both Dexos1 and ILSAC GF-5 specs.
- Increased fuel efficiency--A low coefficient of friction results in optimized fuel efficiency (the fuel economy of Royal Purple's 5W-30 meets the fuel economy requirements of a 5W-20 oil).
- Better protection of the expensive catalytic emission system--Patented ZDDP additives optimize emissions catalyst system life.
- Improved compatibility with fuels containing ethanol--Patented additive technology prevents the white sludge and lubrication starvation that can occur with 20% or higher ethanol fuel.
- Superior corrosion protection--No rust observed in standard industry testing.
Available in Multi-Grade and Monograde Oil Viscosities
Royal Purple API-licensed motor oil is available in both multi-grade and monograde oil viscosities, each of which meets API-licensed warranty requirements for gasoline engines:
Multi-grade Oils
- 20W-50Monograde Oils
Fully Compatible with Other Motor Oils
Royal Purple lubricants are fully compatible with mineral or synthetic oils. No special procedures are necessary when switching to Royal Purple.
Royal Purple and New Vehicles
Royal Purple currently offers many viscosity grades of API-licensed motor oils. To allow for proper break-in of the engine, Royal Purple recommends waiting until the manufacturer's first scheduled oil change or a minimum of 2,000 miles in new gasoline engines. Allow 8,000 to 10,000 miles before using Royal Purple in diesel engines.
Can Royal Purple Motor Oil Be Used In Older Engines?
Yes. Mileage and/or age is not a factor when used in a mechanically sound engine. In high-mileage applications, it's recommended running a minimum of two short (3,000 mile/5,000Km) intervals before extending the oil drain intervals. This will enable Royal Purple's high solvency to remove existing deposits gradually; such deposits can restrict oil flow, if excessive, as well as reduce the oil service life significantly.
Will Switching to Synthetic Oil Cause My Engine To Leak?
Properly formulated synthetic oils will generally not cause an engine oil leak. Synthetic oils possess a higher degree of natural solvency, which can clean and remove deposits left by previous oils. The removal of extensive oil deposits can expose marginal or damaged oil seals, which may then leak. If an engine currently has excessive oil consumption (i.e. greater than 1 quart/1,000 miles) the recommended course of action is to solve the oil consumption problem before switching to a synthetic.

A lot of reviews here talk about the product itself, and I think they have hammered the point that RP is one of the best synthetics that you can buy, up there with oils like Redline. I purchased my '10 RX8 in May 2010 with 16 miles on the clock and have been babying her ever since. After a few goes at conventional oil to break in the engine, I switched over to the RP after some great suggestions by the rx8 community. In doing so I took care to be very meticulous about my oil changes, performing them every 3000 miles, and saving samples to send to Blackstone labs just to make sure that the oil was doing a good job and that my engine was healthy. I ran the RP 5w30 in the winter, and then ran their 10w40 in the summer and had absolutely no problems. Once I changed out my first interval of the 10w40, I sent the samples over to BSL (~$40 total to sample both) to check the results. Although the numbers were above average, the Viscosity numbers were a tad low .... not alarmingly low, but I expected them to be stable considering that this is a premium oil. The guys over at BSL assured me that this was completely normal, and because my car only has 10k miles on it now, it could just be residuals from breakin/conventional oil use/some 5w30 that stayed in the sump when i put the 10w40. In any case, I sent my reports over to the folks at RP just to have them take a look-see. Within a few hours I got back a reply from the RP team pretty much confirming what the guys over at BSL said. Along with that, they stated that they wanted to continue monitoring my use just to be 100% sure that their assumptions are correct. They sent me free sample kits and told me to send them some samples when I do an oil change again.Read more ›
I have an 2008 F150 that has the notorious hot idle Cam Phaser tick. I tried many oils/weights to try to get rid of this, but finally tried RP 10w40 and it has silenced my cam phasers (the thinner weights of RP reduced it, but did not get rid of it).
In my other vehicles, I use 5W20 (winter) or 10w30 (summer) and it has made each one run very quietly and smoothly. I even think I may be getting better fuel economy.
While all synthetics are good, what sets RP apart form the others is it's Synerlec additive. This additive is a very tenacious, slippery additive that reduces friction and almost significantly reduces wear. If you look on YouTube at the Timken machine tests with RP, you can see demonstration of just how good this additive is. While the Timken machine is not the end all, be all, test for oils, it does demonstrate just how good RP is in extreme pressure situations when the oil film is cut through due to engine stress.
With a great additive pack and real Group IV (PAE) base oil (most synthetics today use a cheaper Group III base oil with only a few exceptions) this oil protects extremely well and keeps your engine very clean - not to mention with it's 12 Total Base Number (TBN), it has enough acid neutralizers to be a long drain oil up to 10k miles (my maximum), although others have pushed much further.
If you decide to try, make sure to follow the instructions and do two short Oil Change Intervals (OCIs) of about 3000 miles before extending the OCIs - this will let RP clean up your motor and get it's Synerlec well imbedded into the metal surfaces of your engine.Read more ›
