Rogue Alien Planet Found With No Star! Nibiru, Planet X? 2012 HD
Poster Handle
Alien Disclosure Group
Post Content
Astronomers have discovered a potential "rogue" alien planet wandering alone just 100 light-years from Earth, suggesting that such starless worlds may be extremely common across the galaxy.
The free-floating object, called CFBDSIR2149, is likely a gas giant planet four to seven times more massive than Jupiter, scientists say in a new study unveiled today (Nov. 14). The planet cruises unbound through space relatively close to Earth (in astronomical terms; the Milky Way galaxy is 100,000 light-years wide), perhaps after being booted from its own solar system.
"If this little object is a planet that has been ejected from its native system, it conjures up the striking image of orphaned worlds, drifting in the emptiness of space," study leader Philippe Delorme, of the Institute of Planetology and Astrophysics of Grenoble in France, said in a statement.

Just as the Court is likely to issue its most controversial decisions, AFJ president Nan Aron will moderate Rights in the Balance: The Supreme Court and Social Justice. The panel will also feature Rick Jacobs, chair and founder of Courage Campagin, Pam Karlan, professor of public interest law and co-director of the Supreme Court litigation clinic at Stanford Law School, and Tom Saenz, president and general counsel of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund.
If you're planning to attend the conference, here's more of what we have in store for you this week:
–On Thursday, June 20 at 10:30 a.m., AFJ's Bolder Advocacy attorney Daren Garshelis, along with ColorOfChange.org's Kim Lehmkuhl and the California Immigrant Policy Center's Jon Rodney, will train activists on Influencing Public Policy in the Digital Age: Legal Rules and Regulations for Social Media.

And be sure to stop by our exhibit booth and say hello!
Alliance for Justice President Nan Aron was among the guests discussing the nation's second most important court, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, with Melissa Harris-Perry on MSNBC Sunday. Below, some highlights from the discussion:

Republicans seek to obstruct Obama
executive, judicial nominees
|Nan Aron
By Nan Aron
Alliance for Justice
With battles ahead over President Obama's choices for Secretary of Labor, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director and the National Labor Relations Board, and fights over the nation's second most important court likely to follow, democracy itself is on trial in the United States Senate.
If Republicans persist in preventing yes-or-no votes on President Obama's executive and judicial nominees, the only recourse will be for the majority to revisit Senate rules reform and put an end once and for all to Republican efforts to subvert the Senate's constitutional obligation to provide advice and consent.
|Richard Cordray
The first test is likely to come this week. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says he will schedule a vote on President Obama's nominee to lead the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Richard Cordray. The CFPB was created as part of the Wall Street Reform law as an agency solely devoted to protecting consumers of financial products from mortgages to credit cards. In a transparent effort to protect the very special interests that collapsed our economy and brought ruin to so many Americans, Republicans so far have refused to confirm Cordray. In fact, Republicans have said they won't confirm anyone to run the CFPB.
Republicans have been equally obstinate about the president's nominees for the National Labor Relations Board, the independent agency charged with protecting the rights of workers – and a hearing on those nominees just last week showed no thaw in that obstinacy. That's why Cordray and some of the current NLRB members had to be named through recess appointments.
But three Republican-appointed judges of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, breaking with decades of precedent, decided that the President doesn't have the power to make such recess appointments. The decision is part of a pattern in which the D.C. Circuit consistently sides with corporate interests over workers and consumers – blocking Wall Street reforms, undermining labor rights, and rolling back environmental protections.
So it's no wonder that Republicans also are trying to prevent the president from restoring balance to the D.C. Circuit, which is currently dominated by Republican appointees. The latest underhanded tactic from Republican Senators amounts to a 'pre-emptive filibuster' – an effort to eliminate three of the four vacant judgeships on the court in order to prevent President Obama from filling those seats.
|Tom Perez
But even that isn't the end of the obstruction. We are pleased that two Senate committees were able to overcome Republican stalling tactics and vote last week in favor of President Obama's highly-qualified nominees to lead the Department of Labor and the Environmental Protection Agency. The next step must be swift yes-or-no votes by the full Senate on the nominations of Tom Perez and Gina McCarthy.
Unfortunately, these two outstanding nominees' ordeals may be far from over. All of the Republicans on both committees voted no. As AFJ has pointed out before, to Senate Republicans, one of the only things as bad as a Labor Secretary who will protect working people is an Environmental Protection Agency administrator who will protect the environment.
A solid majority of voters twice has made clear that they support the approach to government taken by Barack Obama. In response, the Republican strategy boils down to rule-or-ruin. They have shown themselves prepared to paralyze government, no matter what the cost to the American people. In the days ahead, we will see if the Senate is ready to break free of this paralysis.
The previous post to this blog discusses misleading claims by Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa). Now, he's at it again. Here's AFJ's response:
Legislation sponsored by Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) to reduce the number of judges on what is widely viewed as the nation's second most important federal court is a "court-packing scheme" to keep the court in the hands of staunch conservatives, according to Alliance for Justice.
|Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa)
Claims by Grassley and others that the court's workload doesn't justify the current number of judges are "false and hypocritical," said AFJ President Nan Aron.
"There is more than one way to pack a court to suit one's ideological preferences," said Aron. "Now that they are facing increasing pressure to stop blocking President Obama's nominees, Republicans have come up with a new plan: just get rid of the vacancies."
At issue is the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The D.C. Circuit most closely oversees actions of federal regulatory agencies.
"The conservative majority on the D.C. Circuit has used its power to issue decisions undermining protections for workers, consumers, and the environment that affect all Americans," Aron said. "This activism is possible only because there are four vacancies on the court.
"When the caseload on the court was lighter than it is now, Sen. Grassley supported President George W. Bush's nominees to fill all eleven seats on the court. But now that President Obama has the opportunity to restore balance to the court, Sen. Grassley proposes to get rid of the vacancies by eliminating three of the 11 seats on the court."
Aron noted that Grassley's caseload calculations fail to take into account the extraordinary complexity of many cases heard by the D.C. Circuit.
For an explanation of the importance of the D.C. Circuit and examples of its majority's political agenda, see our briefing paper on the D.C. Circuit.
Alliance for Justice President Nan Aron issued the following statement in response to the vote today by the Senate to confirm Judge Patty Shwartz for the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
The response of Alliance for Justice can be boiled down to three words: "It's about time."
Patty Schwartz has been an outstanding magistrate judge; she is held in the highest esteem by the New Jersey bar. She never should have had to wait more than 500 days for this vote. More important, those seeking justice from the Third Circuit never should have had to wait more than 500 days for a full complement of judges.
What happened today must become the rule, not the exception. From now on, all highly-qualified nominees need to be given prompt up-or-down votes by the full Senate.

Here's the video of Nan Aron's speech at today's rally in front of the Supreme Court in support of the Voting Rights Act. Nan spoke just as oral arguments were concluding and the lawyers were leaving the Court – so she departed a bit from her prepared text (which can be found in the previous post to this Blog).
Today the Supreme Court hears oral arguments in a challenge to a crucial provision of the Voting Rights Act. AFJ is ready:
Read more about the Voting Rights Act on our website here.
One week from today, the Supreme Court hears oral arguments in a case challenging a crucial provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. That provision, known as Section 5, requires certain jurisdictions to obtain advance approval from the Justice Department or a federal court before they change voting rules or procedures.
The Voting Rights Act was, and remains, the keystone in the arch of civil rights protection for people of color. As our overview of the issues makes clear, that provision is needed now as much as ever.
On the day before the case is heard, join in a Twitter Town Hall about the Voting Rights Act.
AFJ is part of a coalition working to protect the Voting Rights Act. Those efforts include a rally in front of the Supreme Court at 9:00 AM. AFJ President Nan Aron is among the scheduled speakers. Get the details here.
Then, in the hours after the argument, check back here at Justice Watch for comprehensive analysis. Legal experts will be posting here about key issues raised by the case, including:
Guest bloggers include Prof. Franita Tolson of Florida State University, Prof. William Yeomans of American University and Prof. Bertrall Ross of the University of California Berkeley School of Law.
If the Supreme Court makes audio of the oral arguments available in time, we'll include relevant excerpts with the Blog posts.
|Caitlin Halligan
|Judge David Sentelle
In many parts of the country, vacant federal judgeships have languished without nominees for more than two years, according to a new resource from Alliance for Justice.
Much attention has been paid to what happens after someone is nominated to fill a vacancy – in particular the obstruction of nominees by Senate Republicans. But before a nomination ever reaches the Senate it goes through a complex, potentially lengthy process involving the White House and, with few exceptions, a state's two United States Senators. At every step, a nomination can be delayed. In particular, this resource highlights the little-examined role that senators play in the pre-nomination process.
"This new report shines a spotlight on this often-neglected part of the process," said AFJ President Nan Aron. "It illustrates the need for a renewed sense of urgency that should begin the moment a judgeship becomes vacant."
Aron cited examples of unconscionable delay:
"Because of a dispute between senators from California and Idaho, a seat on the 9th Circuit has been vacant for more than eight years," Aron said. "A seat on the 7th Circuit has been vacant for nearly four years. This kind of systemic failure has to end. The American people deserve better."
When it comes to seats on federal district courts, there have been delays of two years or more in sending a nominee to the Senate in five states:
"These data, including detailed maps, track the status of every federal court vacancy for which there is not yet a nominee, giving Americans the information they need to demand action," Aron said.
As part of a series on President Obama's second term, The Huffington Post commissioned a special column from Alliance for Justice President Nan Aron and Larry Cohen, president of the Communications Workers of America, on ending gridlock. Their solution: real reform of Senate rules:
Next week brings not just a new year but also a new United States Congress. Each new Congress has the right to establish its own rules. And that's why next week is the best opportunity finally to end the massive Republican obstruction of the work of the United States Senate.
In the historic 111th Congress, Sen. Mitch McConnell and the Republicans decided to create a 60-vote Senate, which meant that 60 votes were needed on absolutely everything. Which means that they filibustered every single bill, every single nomination, every single amendment, even every single motion, or at least all those for which the Senate rules allowed them to force a 60-vote supermajority. It wasn't 137 filibusters; it was far, far more.
If not, it means you missed AFJ's Conversation with Jeffrey Toobin this evening. But the video is now online at www.afj.org.
Among the other topics: What the court might do, as early as tomorrow, concerning gay rights cases, (that discussion starts about 1 hour and 9 minutes in) why the left does not care as passionately about judges and the courts as the right – and why that might be about to change – and the paradox of Barack Obama, a former constitutional law professor who put less emphasis on judges than one might expect as president.
As AFJ President Nan Aron pointed out, almost every moment of our lives is shaped by decisions of the Supreme Court.

The current term of the U.S. Supreme Court is just over two months old, and already the Court has heard arguments on affirmative action inhigher education and accepted a case challenging a key provision of the VotingRights Act. Tomorrow the Court may decide which, if any, gay rights cases it will hear.
In the Huffington Post, AFJ President Nan Aron writes about the speech Justice Samuel Alito gave at a fundraising dinner for the Federalist Society. She writes:
Although most of the press coverage of this speech has focused on Justice Alito's full-throated defense of the Citizens United decision and his rationalization of the broadest possible interpretation of the corporate personhood concept (an argument effectively dismantled by the New York Times editorial page), there was another moment in Alito's remarks that I think was more important — and scary.
Read about that moment in the full column here – and please let the Huffington Post community know what you think by posting a comment.
Alliance for Justice President Nan Aron issued the following statement on today's decision by the United States Supreme Court to hear a challenge to a key provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. At issue is a provision called "preclearance." Under this provision, places covered by the Act are barred from making changes in voting laws until the U.S. Department of Justice determines that the changes do not have either the purpose or effect of discriminating against people of color.
Today's decision by the Supreme Court to hear a challenge to a key provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 means the court will be focusing on the keystone in the arch of protection for people of color in America – the law that guarantees the right to vote.
The case will be argued before a Chief Justice, John Roberts, who has shown profound hostility to the Voting Rights Act during his legal career. While serving in the Reagan Administration, Roberts was a driving force behind Administration efforts to significantly weaken the Act. His push to weaken the law went beyond internal memos and other writings. He actively encouraged the Administration to publicly embrace and widely endorse his call for a weaker law – drafting numerous talking points, question-and-answer documents and op ed columns.
Opponents of the Voting Rights Act say it has outlived its usefulness. After nearly 50 years, they argue, all of the wrongs have been righted. But any claim that the wrongs that led to this Act are things of the past should have been dispelled by the concerted efforts during the campaign that just ended to deny poor people and people of color their right to vote through voter ID laws and other means of voter suppression.
On election night, according to a Hart Research Associates poll conducted for the AFL-CIO, there was racial inequality at the polling station. The proportion of African American and Hispanic voters who had to wait on long lines before they could vote was more than double the proportion of white voters.
When he signed the Voting Rights Act in 1965, President Lyndon Johnson declared that "This act flows from a clear and simple wrong. . . . Millions of Americans are denied the right to vote because of their color. This law will ensure them the right to vote. The wrong is one which no American, in his heart, can justify. The right is one which no American, true to our principles, can deny."
Soon, the Supreme Court will decide if America will remain true to its principles.
And see the previous post to this blog for more on the need for strong voting rights protections.
"Alliance for Justice outperforms most other charities in America," wrote Ken Berger, President and Chief Executive Officer of Charity Navigator, in a letter announcing the rating. "This 'exceptional' designation from Charity Navigator differentiates Alliance for Justice from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."
"Today, as the Supreme Court begins a new term, the court will be 'open for business," said AFJ President Nan Aron. "The term is already packed with cases with the potential to restrict corporate accountability and limit everyday Americans' civil rights and access to justice The Court's decisions this term could have harmful consequences for the ability of consumers, victims of discrimination, and others to get a fair day in court.
"But no one should be surprised," Aron said. "What we are likely to see in the term that begins today was decades in the making."
Unequal Justice chronicles a 40-year campaign by corporate special interests to put the thumb of big business on the scales of justice. The campaign has its origins in a profoundly-influential memo written in 1971 by corporate lawyer Lewis Powell, just months before he himself was named to the court by President Richard Nixon. The memo urged the business community to fight what was then a burgeoning consumer and environmental movement.
The United States Supreme Court term that starts Monday is packed with cases with the potential to restrict corporate accountability and limit everyday Americans' civil rights and access to justice. According to a report released today by the Alliance for Justice "the majority on the court is likely to live down to its full potential," says AFJ President Nan Aron.
We all know how big business has eroded the American dream by getting Congress and the executive branch to change the rules to favor corporations and the wealthy at the expense of the rest of us. But it hasn't stopped with two branches of government. Corporate special interests have spent decades working to put their thumb on the scales of justice. The campaign finance decision in Citizens United is only the most prominent example.
But it doesn't have to be this way. In a special issue of The Nation, produced in cooperation with the Alliance for Justice, AFJ President Nan Aron writes about what big business has done to the cherished American value of equal justice under law and, most important, what we can do about it:
"Liberals who came of age in the 1960s and '70s perceived the Supreme Court largely as a constructive force, devoted to protecting civil, environmental and consumer rights and liberties, and interpreting the Constitution as a living document relevant to a rapidly changing twentieth-century world. It was a Court worthy of respect, if not reverence.
That was then. The 1 Percent Court is now in session."
Nan's full article is available here.
More from this special issue of The Nation is available here.
This week, along with the spectacle of former President George W. Bush bragging on national television about authorizing torture, federal prosecutor John H. Durham allowed the statute of limitations to expire without pressing charges against C.I.A. agents and attorneys who participated in the destruction of videotapes chronicling the interrogations and mistreatment of Abu Zubaydah and Abd a-Rahim al-Nashiri.
Alliance for Justice is extremely disappointed that once again no one in the United States government is being held accountable for criminal acts undertaken as part of the Bush Administration's policy of abusing and torturing prisoners. The decision by Mr. Durham not to prosecute C.I.A. officials who destroyed evidence of detainee mistreatment is yet another example of the government officials involved in torture and other illegal conduct being given a free pass for their actions. We believe that Mr. Durham owes the country an explanation and should release a report of his findings and publicly explain the reasoning for his decision to allow C.I.A. officials off the hook.
Mr. Durham's decision is particularly disturbing in light of the admission this week by George W. Bush that he willingly authorized torture and that his actions were acceptable because a lawyer told him he could do it. Since Nuremburg, the world has understood that lawyers cannot provide immunity for crimes against humanity. We have also come to understand that the lawyers who enable such crimes themselves violate the law and can be prosecuted, whether they work for the Department of Justice or the C.I.A. Each time our government fails to face up to the crimes of its leaders, the United States slips further toward lawlessness and diminishes its hard-won ability to lead the world toward respect for the rule of law and human rights.
In light of President Bush's admissions and with abundant evidence available of egregious and criminal behavior, John Durham and the Justice Department must accelerate and intensify the investigation into the Bush Administration's illegal torture practices. It is long past time for the Obama Administration to take seriously its commitment to uphold the law of the land and bring to justice both the senior leaders who authorized torture and the lawyers who served as their enablers. To do otherwise makes a mockery of the men and women of the military, who, since George Washington, have treated prisoners humanely and of our long-professed belief that the rule of law should guide the world.

An offseason of questions is surrounding the Celtics, but early news out of free agency is looking rather good for a team that could have taken a huge step down this upcoming season. The Celtics at +2000 to win the NBA Title next season seems like good value to me and I recommend a small play as part of my free NBA picks.
The biggest questions around the Celtics were the draft and their two big free agents. They drafted two solid big men, Jared Sullinger and Fab Melo, and they have reached an agreement with Kevin Garnett to come back for another three seasons. They have also come to a verbal agreement with Jason Terry. However, now that Terry will be joining the club, it doesn't look like Ray Allen will be returning.
Now the club will look to re-sign swing men Jeff Green and Mickael Pietrus. If they can pull off both of those deals, the Celtics will be looking almost better than last season. If Green and Avery Bradley can remain healthy, this team will be a force in the East still along with Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo.
The Celtics took the Heat to seven games after being tired and injured, and with their apparent new roster taking form, they and the Chicago Bulls will be the biggest hurdles for the Heat in the Eastern Conference.

A. Field of Invention
This invention pertains to the art of methods and apparatuses regarding vehicle storage compartments and more particularly to methods and apparatuses regarding the concealment of vehicle storage compartment strikers.
B. Description of Related Art
Within the automotive industry, it is often considered aesthetically appealing to conceal mechanical parts from the view of the automobile owner. Specifically, apparatuses are known and used to conceal the striker of vehicle trunk connection mechanisms. One known apparatus is shown in
While the just described apparatus generally works well for its intended purpose, it does have limitations. One limitation is the complexity and the component cost associated with manufacturing the automobile trunk connecting mechanisms. Another limitation is the use of the metal bracket. Such metal components increase the cost associated in manufacturing the assembly, increase weight of the automobile and make assembly more complex.
Therefore, what is needed is a trunk connecting mechanism that is lighter, less complex to manufacture and minimizes costs associated with the manufacture, while maintaining the required robustness of the apparatus.
According to one embodiment of the invention, a vehicle comprises a frame, a locomotion source operatively supported to the frame that provides locomotion for the vehicle, a storage compartment assembly comprising a storage compartment operatively supported to the frame, a lid that is closeable to substantially cover the storage compartment and that is openable to provide access to the storage compartment, a compartment portion formed in either the storage compartment or the lid, the compartment portion having an opening, a connection mechanism that connects the lid to the storage compartment in a closed condition to cover at least a portion of the storage compartment, the connection mechanism comprising, a striker positioned within the opening formed in the compartment portion, a latch mechanism that latches to the striker, the latch mechanism positioned on the other of the storage compartment or the lid, a cover assembly that substantially covers the opening, the cover assembly comprising a flap that is positionable to cover at least a portion of the opening and that is positionable to provide access to the striker, a shaft about which the flap pivots, the shaft having a first end with a knurled portion and a second end, a shaft support structure that supports the shaft to the compartment portion; the shaft support structure comprising a first extension surface positioned on one side of the opening and having a first hole that receives the knurled portion of the shaft creating a press fit with the first extension, and a second extension surface positioned substantially on the opposite side of the opening and having a second hole that receives the second end of the shaft, and a spring that biases the flap to cover the opening, and when the lid is closed, it causes a portion of the latch mechanism to contact the flap and pivot the flap to provide access to the post and causes the latch mechanism to latch to the striker.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the method of constructing the cover assembly includes a flap that covers at least a portion of the opening having a first and a second support sleeve, a shaft having a first end with a knurled portion and a second end; a support structure having an extension surface having a first hole on one side of the opening and a second hole on the opposing side of the opening; and a spring, beginning by inserting the first end of the shaft into the first hole on the first side of the support structure opening, inserting the knurled end of the shaft into the first flap support eyelet, inserting the knurled end of the shaft into the second flap support eyelet, inserting the spring around the knurled end of the shaft, and inserting the knurled end of the shaft into the second hole on the opposing side of the support structure opening, fastening the knurled end of the shaft to the extension surface and securing the spring into the flap support position.
One advantage of this invention is that it streamlines construction of the assembly, as it eliminates certain parts that were required in the prior art. The elimination of components required for manufacture shortens the time required for manufacture and saving ultimately saves money.
Another advantage of this invention is the robust nature of the assembly no longer requires that certain metal components be used. Metal is still required to be used for the spring and shaft, however, all other parts are made of less costly materials. This also saves money in manufacturing costs.
Still other benefits and advantages will become apparent to those skilled in the art to which it pertains upon a reading and understanding of the following detailed specification.
The invention may take physical form in certain parts and arrangement of parts, embodiments of which will be described in detail in this specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof and wherein:
Referring now to the drawings wherein the showings are for purposes of illustrating embodiments of the invention only and not for purposes of limiting the same, and wherein like reference numerals are understood to refer to like components,
With reference now to
With reference now to
With reference again to
With reference now to
With reference now to
With further reference to
Also shown in
Again with reference to
In one embodiment, the ratio of the shaft total length STL to the width of the opening WO, STL/WO, is less than 1.5. It a more specific embodiment, the ratio STL/WO is less than 1.2. This ratio is represents one of the improvements over the prior art. In the current embodiment, the shaft 46 is supported by the exterior support ribbing 35 and the related the first and second extension surfaces 58 and 60 as opposed to the shaft being supported by metal brackets bolted to the compartment portion. This elimination of material reduces material cost, reduces manufacturing time and simplifies the design of the cover assembly 24.
With reference now to
Again referring to
Additionally, with reference to
With further reference to
Again, with reference to
Numerous embodiments have been described, hereinabove. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the above methods and apparatuses may incorporate changes and modification without departing from the general scope of this invention. It is intended to include all such modification and alterations in so far as they come within the scope of the appended claims or the equivalents thereof.

The research presented here was motivated by an interest in understanding the magnitude of sampling error in crop production unit process data developed for life cycle assessments (LCAs) of food, biofuel, and bioproduct production. More broadly, uncertainty data are placed within the context of conclusive interpretations of comparative bioproduct LCA results.
Data from the US Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Resource Management Survey were parameterized for 466 crop–state–year combinations, using 146 variables representing the previous crop, tillage and seed operations, irrigation, and applications of synthetic fertilizer, lime, nitrogen inhibitor, organic fertilizer, and pesticides. Data are described by Student's t distributions representing sampling error through the relative standard error (RSE) and are organized by the magnitude of the RSE by data point. Also, instances in which the bounds of the 95 % confidence intervals are less than zero or exceed actual limits are identified.
Results and discussion
Although the vast majority of the data have a RSE less than 100 %, values range from 0 to 1,600 %. The least precision was found in data collected between 2001 and 2002, in the production of corn and soybeans and in synthetic and pesticide applications and irrigation data. The highest precision was seen in the production of durum wheat, rice, oats, and peanuts and in data representing previous crops and till and seed technology use. Additionally, upwards of 20 % of the unit process, data had 95 % confidence intervals that are less than or exceed actual limits, such as an estimation of a negative area or a portion exceeding a total area, as a consequence of using a jackknife on subsets of data for which the weights are not calibrated explicitly and a low presence of certain practices.
High RSE values arise from the RSE representing a biased distribution, a jackknife estimate being nearly zero, or error propagation using low-precision data. As error propagates to the final unit process data, care is required when interpreting an inventory, e.g., Monte Carlo simulation should only be sampled within the appropriate bounds. At high levels of sampling error such as those described here, comparisons of LCA bioproduct results must be made with caution and must be tested to ensure mean values are different to a desired level of significance.

We are getting readjusted to our regular life here back in Massachusetts. We had a wonderful time in New Orleans. Great food, music, history, architecture and gardens. We hope we can make it down for another visit someday.
We loved the apartment, location was great and it was a lovely space to hang out at the end of the day.
What a beautiful place to stay !! Can't say enough about the care that has been taken to give you the nicest amenities but keeping the old world charm of this beautiful building. The pictures do not show you how really romantic and lovely it is !! This home is directly on Magazine street in a wonderful part of the Lower Garden District - close to the Warehouse District and The Quarter so shops, restaurants and bars are just a walk away !! We loved having our coffee every morning on the terrace and watching the "Nola flavor" go by !! With 2 bedrooms and 2 baths we will be back next time and bring another couple to stay !! Our host, Julie was amazing with info of the area and always available if needed. We would absolutely recommend this property to all !!! We will be back soon !!!
We really enjoyed this beautiful apartment and it's location. My only issue is that the living room furniture is older and not very comfortable. The rest of the apartment is beautifully appointed.
Great location. Great owners with great recommendations during your stay. Easy access to French Quarter, Aquarium, WW II museum, etc. Peaceful, Charming.... would highly recommend.
Thank You,
Susan and David
Owners very pleasant, easy to work with, and easily contacted. The apartment and area was fantastic! I would def stay there again.
What an exceptional place to stay! My family (2 adults + 1 teen) spent a week in New Orleans and fell in love with this home. It is beautifully decorated and drenches you in New Orleans charm. Excellent location with so much to see and do right outside the door. The St. Charles street car is close by and there are loads of great cafe's, restaurants and shops nearby. I can't imagine a better place to stay and Julie was fantastic to work with. Thank you for a wonderful vacation...We will be back!
We were in New Orleans for a convention. The townhouse was close enough to be convenient. We were not there most of the time, but it was easy to find, parking was good, and the accommodations were nice. Thank you

A suggestion:
You might want to make the film of the students read more like the parts with the proffesors, instead of having the students' names, a colon, what they said, and then their actions in brackets. Just a thought.

No Longer Showing.
The Measure of All Things is a new "live documentary" by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Sam Green. Meditating on fate, time, and the outer contours of the human experience, and inspired very loosely by the Guinness Book of World Records to weave together a series of portraits of record-holding people, places, and things—including the tallest man (7'-9"), the oldest living thing (a 5,000 year old Bristlecone Pine in Southern California), and the man struck by lightning the most times (seven!)—the piece will be screened with in-person narration and a live soundtrack.
November 21, 7 and 9pm performance with yMusic
November 22, 7 and 9pm performance with Brendan Canty (Fugazi), T. Griffin, and Catherine McRae
Tickets $25
Sam Green: The Measure of All Things received support from Rooftop Films, DCTV, and the National Endowment for the Arts. This presentation is supported, in part, by public funds from New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
San Francisco Giants 2010 1st round pick Gary Brown (Cal State - Fullerton) blasted a three-run home run to key a six-run 2nd inning, and the Giants went on to wallop the Cubs 17-6 in AZ Instructional League action at Fitch Park Field #3 in Mesa this afternoon.
The GOOD: Jae-Hoon Ha hit another HR over the left-centerfield fence onto 8th Street (a solo job in the 8th, his second HR in a week), Ryan Cuneo had two doubles (one of which was a two-run shot off the RF fence), and Gioskar Amaya and Oliver Zapata ripped back-to-back opposite field line-drive triples.
The BAD: Cub pitchers surrendered 17 runs on 17 hits (including three doubles and a HR), eight walks, two HBP, five wild pitches, and one balk. LHP Cam Greathouse (Cubs 2010 8th round pick out of Gulf Coast CC) started the game for the Cubs and had an especially poor outing, allowing seven runs (six ER) on six hits (including one HR) and two walks, and was only able to get two outs in the 2nd inning before being relieved.
The UGLY: Reggie Golden dropped not one but two fly balls in RF (actually one pop fly and one line drive), resulting in three unearned runs scoring. Not since Keith Moreland patrolled RF at Fitch Park has such humanity been seen.
BTW, an interesting tidbit about Reggie Golden is that he does something you usually only hear at a tennis match, and that is, he grunts (loudly) when he swings. And Reggie did hit/grunt two balls hard today, one a line-out (or "loud out", so to speak) to CF, and the other an opposite-field laser line-drive double into the RF corner.
On the injury front, SS Hak-Ju Lee was removed from the game after he was seen limping gingerly to 1st base after dropping a single into left-center, one pitch after fouling a ball off his foot.
Here is today's abridged box score (Cubs players only):
1a. Oliver Zapata, LF: 1-2 (K, 3B, RBI, R)
1b. Chris Huseby, LF: 0-2 (F-9, P-4)
2a. Hak-Ju Lee, SS: 1-2 (3-U, 1B)
2b. Marco Hernandez, PR-SS: 0-2 (E6, F-8, R)
3. Jae-Hoon Ha, CF: 2-4 (6-3, L-8, 1B, HR, RBI, 2 R)
4. Ryan Cuneo, 1B: 2-4 (P-5, F-9, 2B, 2B, 2 RBI)
5a. Chad Noble, C: 1-2 (K, 1B)
5b. Max Kwan, C: 0-2 (K, K)
6. Sergio Burruel, DH #1: 0-4 (5-3, 4-3, 4-3, F-7)
7a. Reggie Golden, RF: 1-2 (L-8, 2B, R)
7b. Xavier Batista, PH-DH #2: 0-1 (5-3, BB)
8. Willson Contreras, 3B: 2-4 (K, 6-3, 1B, 1B)
9. Delbis Arcila, DH-RF: 0-3 (3-U, 1-3, BB, L-6 DP, RBI)
10. Gioskar Amaya, 2B: 1-3 (3B, 4-3, L-4 DP, R)
1. Cam Greathouse: 1.2 IP, 6 H, 7 R (6 ER), 2 BB, 0 K, 1 WP, 1 HR, 1 GIDP, 40 pitches (24 strikes), 5/0 GO/FO
2. Ryan Hartman: 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 0 K, 1 HBP, 1 BALK, 28 pitches (14 strikes), 1/3 GO/FO
3. Hunter Ackerman: 3.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R (0 ER), 1 BB, 3 K, 2 WP, 43 pitches (28 strikes), 4/2 GO/FO
4. Brian Smith: 0.1 IP, 3 H, 5 R (3 ER), 2 BB, 1 K, 1 HBP, 1 WP, 28 pitches (14 strikes)
5. Dustin Fitzgerald: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 2 R (2 ER), 1 BB, 0 K, 1 WP, 36 pitches (19 strikes), 2/3 GO/FO
6. Starling Peralta: 1.0 IP, 3 H, 1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 1 K, 1 GIDP, 12 pitches (9 strikes)
1. RF Reggie Golden E-9 (dropped fly ball allowed batter to reach base and unearned run to score)
2. RF Reggie Golden E-9 (dropped line drive allowed batter to reach base and two unearned runs to score)
3. SS Marco Hernandez E-6 (fielding error allowed batter to reach base – eventually scored unearned run)
Chad Noble: 0-1 CS
Max Kwan: 1 PB

Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
good chance, probably give it to Bud Black myself regardless if they make the playoffs. That was some crazy voodoo they accomplished down south this season.
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
I would bet Black wins it. If he makes the playoffs it should be a slam dunk. Dusty has got a lot of bad seasons under his belt so that the voters probably will be less likely to attribute their turn around to him.
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
There's a 36 in 38 chance it'll either be Black or Reds.
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
very well done, sir !!
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
Yikes. If Golden is having troubles in RF at Fall Instructs, imagine the circus act he would provide in RF at Wrigley, arguably the toughest RF to play in all of baseball. Although it is nice to see another XBH from the 18 year old. That's also disappointing about Greathouse getting rocked. He put up some very solid numbers at Boise this year (2.93 FIP, 10.07 K/9, 2.52 W/9, 70.4 GB%). Hopefully it was just a bad day and he bounces back nicely next time out. As always, thanks again for the update, AZ Phil.
Fun Stuff
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
Venable last night
and video
Offseason date changes
- only 5 days to negotiate with your own free agents after World Series
- Arb offer day is moved up to Nov 23 from Dec 1st
- Players now have until Nov 30 to accept or not instead of Dec 7th
- Non-tender day is now Dec 2nd instead of Dec 12th
the reasons given for the changes was to extend the negotiating window so there are less FA's come Feb/March.
also apparently some stricter rules will be in place to avoid collusion and restrict negotiating through the media.
Also the Rule 5 draft may be moved up to Nov 20th, although not sure if that's been confirmed yet.
Lineup for Thurs
#Cubs lineup @ #Padres (9/30): DeWitt 2B, Castro SS, Byrd CF, Ramirez 3B, Nady 1B, Snyder RF, Soriano LF, Hill C, Gorzelanny P
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
It's kosher to play Snyder against a playoff contender, but not Welington Castillo over the inferior Koyie Hill? I hate the unwritten rules of baseball sometimes.
Re: Cub Pitching Not Too Great Today
RIP welington castillo
btw, fuku is sore so he'd probably be in RF and leading off vs. the righty if healthy.
Recent comments
Unfortunately, a pretty good summary. It looks like next year Heyward will be getting yet another batting stance adjustment.
The recent good news has been Baez. I'm afraid about the next league adjustment on him, though, which is probably right around the corner.
Bryant I don't worry about too much. Just not seeing the ball well right now. He'll turn it around. Russell's been good with men in scoring position all year and he's 22ish. He'll be fine but next year is likely to be his breakout year.
If Travis' back-to-back-to-back walks cost Hendricks the ERA title, that would really suck.
Edit: "A lifeless loss to a lousy Sox team."
This place is a real downer after a loss to the Sox.
I expect they will go 5-9 games above .500 the rest of the year. 96-98 wins will win the Division.
They should have one more 2-3 week hot streak in them.
However, several players are just "average" for the last month: Zobrist, Ross, Russell, Ceasar. Montero is terrible, plus he cannot throw anyone out. -WAR. Heyward is abysmal at the plate, but a plus in the OF. Still with RISP he has been terrible. KB has not been driving in runs as of late. But Apparently the team is still above average with RISP according to S Sahadev.
I came to that realization tonight. I kept expecting them to play better, but now I realize they aren't going to. They are a .500 team now.
- They have one reliable starting pitcher. Jake's magic is gone, and it doesn't look like it's coming back. Lester has been lousy recently. Lackey's ERA goes up every time he pitches.
- Heyward has been dead weight all year. I can't remember a single series where he was a significant offensive contributor. Not one. Great defense, but but if he were hitting .270 with 10 HR and played average defense, the Cubs would be better off.
new rule...no one's allowed to throw k.bryant a changeup
Team is .500 since early May and is playing like a .500 team. Lack of offense seems to be putting a lot of pressure on the pitchers...and they aren't handling it terribly well.
.500 the rest of the way still may win the division though.
...i hate espn.
nothing like settling into a cubs game to get a few minutes cutaway for an ortiz AB in the 6th inning of the det/bos game.
oh, at least they're doing split screen now...i guess.
I'm liking this rookie Nathan.
Richard DFA'd. Meh...
Throwbacks with fashionable cutouts would be a nice touch.
The next 2 games are nationally televised. I think we dominate tonight, hitting 3 HRs off Shields. Great night for KB to end HR drought facing HR prone pitcher in one of the most hitter friendly parks in the league.
If the ball didn't deflect off the pitcher's mound, the game wouldn't have ended. Montgomery did miss his location though, but if that same contact was made and went in any of direction, good chance of ground out if it doesn't get through.
If it was 1 night later, Chapman would be out there and we probably would be going to extras.
Also, If KB wasn't robbed of a HR, perhaps we would have won. We will never know. Nice play by Melky though.
The comparison isn't Chapman replacing Rondon. It's Chapman replacing Richard (hopefully) in the pen. Chapman's better.
I'm with you, Rob. You pretty much summed up how I feel about it.
