The move will take place in mid 2016, when construction of the new Pioneer Square headquarters is finished, the company said in a news release.
"There are two main drivers for this decision, which we made after thorough analysis of various options for the location of our headquarters," company president and CEO Doyle R. Simons said in the news release. "First, our 430-acre campus in Federal Way is costly and too large for our needs. Second, moving our headquarters to Seattle will give us access to a larger talent pool to meet future recruiting needs, not just in this region, but from across the country."
The company, which began operations in 1900, will divest the land and buildings it currently owns in Federal Way.
"Weyerhaeuser has a long successful history in Federal Way," Simons said. "We've attracted great people to work here and this campus has served us well. Moving to Seattle is an important step forward for us and I'm excited about the opportunities it will bring to our company and employees."
Weyerhaeuser is one of the world's largest private owners of timberlands. It currently owns or controls nearly 7 million acres of timberland in the United States and manages another 14 million acres in Canada, according to the company.
In 2013, Weyerhaeuser's continuing operations generated $7.3 billion in sales and employed approximately 13,000 people.

Dyer Observatory News
First Friday Meet the Astronomer – August 5 @ 7pm.
Dr. Bob O'Dell – "Peering into a Stellar Nursery: Fifty Years of Studying the Orion Nebula"
Stars are forming continuously from giant clouds of gas molecules in our Milky Way Galaxy. Fortunately, one of these regions is nearby and has created the Orion Nebula, which is visible with even small binoculars. Thousands of stars have recently formed there, with the oldest about 3 million years old and the youngest about the same age as us, homo sapiens. The advent of the Hubble Space Telescope has allowed us for the first time to see the disk and jets that seem to be necessary to allow the formation of stars and that are the building blocks from which planetary systems may be forming. The bottom line of this talk is to explain one facet of how we came to be.
After the talk and question-answer session, there will be viewing at the Seyfert Telescope (weather-permitting).
COST: $6.27 per person ($5.00 admission plus $1.27 online handling fee). NO TICKETS SOLD AT DOOR and NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES. EACH PERSON MUST HAVE THEIR OWN RESERVATION. RESERVATIONS CAN BE MADE HERE.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
More about Dr. O'Dell
Bob O'Dell obtained his BSEd from Illinois State and his PhD in Astronomy at the University of Wisconsin in 1962. After being a Carnegie Fellow at the Mt. Wilson and Palomar Observatories and a brief stint at the University of California in Berkeley, he relocated to the Yerkes Observatory of the University of Chicago. There he became a full professor, chair of the department, and director of the observatory. He then became NASA founding Project Scientist of the Hubble Space Telescope, leading the science of that program for eleven years from its initiation through much of the construction phase. From Rice University he served as the leader of the Observatory Scientist Team through the occasion of the highly successful first servicing mission of the Hubble Space Telescope. For the last five years he has been a member of the Space Telescope Science Institute Council, the supervisory body for the Hubble Space Telescope and the forthcoming James Webb Space Telescope.
He has always been interested in the Orion Nebula and has published papers on this spectacular object for over fifty years. As a Distinguished Research Professor of Astrophysics at Vanderbilt, he is still trying to figure it out.

The Old Ways Still Work
Regarding "Rethinking Catholic Schools: Who Needs Them?" [1] by Fr. Nonomen (December 6, 2013): The elementary school of Fr. Nonomen's parish is not representative of all Catholic suburban schools. Many Catholic schools around the country are still thriving, such as the ones outside the city of Philadelphia. In my archdiocese, Catholic schools were built at the turn of the twentieth century to teach the large number of Catholic immigrants, but eventually they spread to the suburbs for the baby boom of the 1950s and '60s. Many of these suburban Catholic schools remain vibrant today.
I agree with Fr. Nonomen that "Catholic schools distinguish themselves from public schools by integrating gospel values in academics and extracurricular activities," and if he were to ask students, they would say that they've also found friendship and a feeling of community that comes from a shared faith tradition. This sense of community gives them a security that strengthens their sense of worth. Sharing the same values builds a strong foundation from which purposeful learning can develop.
I disagree with the way Fr. Nonomen characterizes most Catholic-school teachers as "fresh out of college and, therefore, ill-equipped to teach." On the contrary, many faculty members in our suburbs have been teaching in Catholic school for several years, even though their...

Posted on 12/06/2007 2:25:59 PM PST by doug from upland
Murdered by Mumia: A Life Sentence of Loss, Pain, and Injustice
by Maureen Faulkner, Michael A. Smerconish
Publisher: Lyons Press, The
Pub. Date: December 2007 ISBN-13: 9781599213767
Maureen Faulkner's husband, Philadelphia police office Danny Faulkner, was shot between the eyes on a cold December night in 1981. Mumia Abu-Jamal was unanimously convicted of the crime by a racially mixed jury based on: the testimony of several eyewitnesses, his ownership of the murder weapon, matching ballistics, and Abu-Jamal's own confession.
After his conviction, however, a national anti-death penalty movement was started to "Free Mumia;" Mike Farrell, Ed Asner, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jesse Jackson rallied on his behalf, and led the charge. For his part, while on death row, Abu-Jamal published several books, delivered radio commentaries, was a college commencement speaker, found himself named an Honorary Citizen of France, and had his defense coffers enhanced by ticket sales from a sold out (16,000-person) concert featuring Rage Against the Machine.
Here, from Maureen Faulkner and acclaimed talk show host / journalist Michael Smerconish, is the first book to carefully and definitively lay out the case against Abu-Jamal, and those who've elevated him to the status of political prisoner. Smerconish, a lawyer, has provided pro bono legal counsel to Faulkner for over a decade and knows both the legal intricacies and personal subtleties of the case like no other person. He's personally acquainted himself with the more than five thousand pages of trial transcript. "My reading starkly revealed that Abu-Jamal murdered Danny Faulkner in cold blood and that the case tried in Philadelphia in 1982 bore no resemblance to the one being home-cooked by the Abu-Jamal defense team."
As Abu-Jamal's lawyers contemplate their final appeal, Faulkner and Smerconish weave a compelling,never-before-told account of one fateful night and the 25-year-long rewriting of history.
Not surprisingly, from prison, Mumia was a commencement speaker several years ago at Evergreen State College in Washington, the school that gave the Palestinians "Bulldozer Girl" and recently interfered with military shipments.
The Philadelphia Inquirer has been running excerpts from the book all week. Fascinating reading. In yesterday's excerpt, Mrs. Faulkner goes after all the idiot celebrities who have supported Mumia. She even called the White House to complain that Bill Clinton was having Whoopi Goldberg at an event. She got a call from Leon Panetta telling her that the President did not endorse the Free Mumia stuff.
Scum bag being pushed by the left.
Fry Mumia!
Drat, ya beat me by 14 seconds. :-P
Faulkner & Smerconish just appeared on Hannity's radio show...

Scumbag killer
yo, Mumia
in your pants youre
gonna pee-a
Youll meet Sparky hes electric of your writing he cares not that its eclectic
In your cause your
fans are mired
but 5 bullets
you had fired
Its the truth they cannot handle for the officer they never held a candle
By the liberals
youre admired
they think every-
one conspired
By your tactics theyre deluded they should join you and should all be executed
You fooled Whoopi
you fooled Woody
each of them is
quite a goodie
They exhibit fuzzy thinking most positions that they take are really stinking
With the crime that you committed
your own life you have forfeited
Its your choice and its long overdue that they are silencing your voice
Tell Ed Asner he can stick though hell demonstrate and picket
His best days had left him long ago and this is how he plays
Wait a minute
an appeal
come on judges
lets get real
For your exit we are yearning in the bargain we may get to see you burning
Theres one chance to
show compassion
theres a plan that
we could fashion
We might spare your worthless bottom by arranging you trade places with Ms. Rodham
I heard it. That's what inspired this post. :)
Then, we can all say,
"hope the M-Fer dies, s-l-o-w-l-y."
Or as we say in Texas: NEXT!!!
Oh ;-) Hat tip: Hannity ;-)
From an older thread.Lovely pics of this scumbag's supporters........
What a shame our tax dollars are keeping this worthless piece of sh*t alive.
I have always loved your song parodies, but this line, and THIS LINE ALONE, managed a belly laugh from me that was so loud it scared my dog:
"Youll meet Sparky hes electric of your writing he cares not that its eclectic"
On the behalf of Alan Sherman fans everywhere, I thank you and bow down to your greatness.
'or as we say in Texas: NEXT!!!' Sadly, in PA we say lets keep this on appeal for evah!!!
Thanks for the kind words. I have a personal favorite from a Camp Grenada song and will try to find it.
But Mumia was framed.
Not only that he has been on NPR and Pacifica radio...
This may be my favorite line:
We know there was trouble plenty she learned what he did with his Arturo Fuente
MIDI - CAMP GRENADA http://evenmoresapphiredreams.bravepages.com/C/Midi_C.html
Hey black pant suit
are you dusty
worn by Rodham
are you crusty?
For two decades you have lasted youd not squeeze her big butt if sometime she fasted
You had touched the
evil lady
when the softballs
came from Katy
Once you thought youd really lost er when she took you off to dump her boyfriend Foster
You were there for
she proclaimed them
There was comfort youre providing on the day the billing records she was hiding
Are you wool or
Carville may know
go ask Chester
You cant fit a- round her belly you need washing Pakistanis say youre smelly
Please be honest
was she plastered
when she screamed You F.J. Bastard
Did she hurl when she read Leaves of Grass was given to that porky girl
Would you welcome the excitement if youre worn to her indictment
And by chance do you think youd survive if she should wet her pants
Wait a minute
is exquisite
what you hear when
lezbos visit
Have you had a corsage clipped on like a blue dress please tell us, have you been dripped on
Were you out in the Rose Garden
Bill was late and...begged her pardon
We know there was trouble plenty she learned what he did with his Arturo Fuente
I had to wiki an Arturo Fuente!! Ouch, that was a really clever line!
While Middle East leaders were kept waiting to discuss the preace process out in the Rose Garden, Bill was inside with Monica playing cigar games.
I am listening to Maureen Faulkner being interviewed by Larry Elder right now.
Such a horrible crime and such a farce that is being perpetrated on a worldwide scale by the empty headed tools who are supporting this POS.
Another case in which Asner and his pals were involved. Gary Graham - http://www.prodeathpenalty.com/graham.htm

BMI View : While exploration in the recently-licensed blocks in western Greece could see success, the bulk of Greece's potential oil and gas resources are more likely to be located off the country's southern and south eastern coast. The government could offer offshore blocks in the east at a later point, though its ability to do so is still limited by territorial disputes with Turkey over claims to their respective Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas.
Greece is hopeful that exploration w ould pick up with new licences given for o il and gas exploration . The Greek energy ministry announced that it has awarded two licences within the western areas of Ioannina and Patraikos to two separate consortiums respectively led by Hellenic Petroleum and Energean Oil . These blocks were offered in the country's 2012 licensing round.
Gulf of Patraikos (offshore): The licence for this has been awarded to Hellenic Petroleum and its partners Edison International and Petroceltic (which took over Melrose Resources). Information provided by the ministry suggests that there are 'interesting oil prone' structures in this block and recoverable resources are estimated at around 200mn barrels (bbl). However, it also stated that this area 'is considered difficult' and no drilling has taken place on similar areas.
Ioannina (onshore): This large onshore licence has been given to Energean Oil and its partners Petra Petroleum. Oilfield services giant Schlumberger will be Energean's 'Strategic Technical Partner' on the field. Available data from the energy ministry estimates that there could be about 50 to 80mn bbl of recoverable oil in this area, though oil are likely located in deep targets in a mountainous terrain. It could also 'require a high cost of seismic and drilling activities' at the exploration stage.
Another block in Katakolo, southwest of the country, was also offered but the ministry did not announce a winner for it for unknown reasons. A consortium between Thome Group and Viking Energy Holdings is competing against Energean Oil for the concession.
Other firms that had showed interest in the three blocks put up are Trajan Oil & Gas, Arctic Hunter Energy, K.O. Enterprises, Chariot Oil and Gas and Grekoil Energy Ventures, according to a September 2012 report on Bloomberg.
Energy minister Yannis Maniatis is optimistic that this helps to 'open a new page of the Greek market' and expects that exploration can bring about 'an increase in government revenue' a nd 'the creation of new jobs'. However, it could take time before exploration bears fruit and leads to commercial production of oil, given that the licences awarded appear to be relatively challenging to drill in.
Also, reception to the licensing round suggests that the industry is cautious about Greece's o il and gas potential. Most of the bidders were either Greek companies, firms focused on the Mediterranean and/or southern Europe, or frontier-focused companies looking at underexplored areas. This contrasts with Cyprus ' most recent licensing round , which saw interest from major firms such as Eni , Total and Gazprom , despite the latter's lack of proven oil and gas reserves.
However, it should also be pointed out that the location of the blocks offere d played a role in this result. Better prospects are likely to lie offshore further south of the country. Petroleum Geo-Services (PGS), commissioned by the Greek government, is conducting a seismic survey off the west and southern coasts of Greece in the Ionian Sea. The energy ministry expects 'positive results' when PGS completes its study in late 2013/early 2014. Estimates by Greek geologists also suggest that the underexplored and offshore region near Crete in the Greek exclusive economic zone (EEZ) could hold up to 1.68trn cubic metres (tcm) of gas-in-place for Greece. Local media had reported that it is this region that major oil companies such as Total, ExxonMobil and Shell are interested in.
In the near future, Greece may open up this area for exploration in a bid to boost its oil and gas reserves. At present, the net energy importer only has about 10mn bbl of proven oil and less than 1bn cubic metres (bcm) of proven gas reserves. Oil and gas consumption was about 313,200 barrels per day (b/d) - or approximately 114mn bbl altogether - and 4.3bcm in 2012. Developing potential hydrocarbons lying beneath its waters could help Greece lower its long-term energy bills and support its economic rehabilitation.

|Greece Gas Production & Consumption, 2007-2017 (bcm)
Despite this potential, Greece's ongoing dispute with Turkey over maritime claims presents a downside risk to the ability of Greece to tap its potential. Although some of the maritime territory off the country's east coast is in Greece's proclaimed exclusive economic zone (EEZ), this has not been recognised by Turkey. In early 2013, tensions between the two countries threatened to flare up after Greece raised an objection to Turkey's grant of an exploration licence in disputed waters. Turkey had also vowed to retaliate with 'counter measures' if Greece starts exploring in claimed areas in the Aegean Sea.

I was raised about 30 minutes from this town, and we visited on many occasions. I seem to remember seeing fireworks from the river near here many times......
Havre De Grace is located at the mouth of the Susquehanna River, where it meets the Chesapeake Bay. It was nearly the highest point of Navigation on the Bay, and nearly became the capitol of the United States.

Should You Embrace Your In-Laws or Avoid Them?December 7, 2012 •
According to results of a recent study, spouses should tread lightly when forming bonds with in-laws. Terri Orbuch, a professor and psychologist at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan, recently spoke about the findings of a study she has been conducting that spans more than 25 years. Orbuch originally interviewed 373 newlywed couples in 1986 and has been following them to assess their relationships. One of the factors she has examined is the dynamic of the in-law relationship. Orbuch found that the husbands who had close relationships with their in-laws were 20% less likely to divorce than those who had strained in-law bonds. However, this type of intimate family tie did not have the same effect for wives. In fact, wives who were very close to in-laws were more likely to divorce than those who kept their distance.
These results seem to fly in the face of conventional wisdom. One would think family harmony and close bonds would strengthen a marital relationship. But Orbuch believes these findings are not all that surprising. Men, she says, see their primary role as provider, not husband, son, or father. Women, on the other hand, may have difficulty distinguishing between in-law closeness and meddling. "They interpret what their in-laws say and do as interference into their identity as a spouse and parent," Orbuch said.
The data from this study shouldn't scare wives into running as fast and as far away as they can from their husbands' families. It should, however, provide some guidance into navigating delicate in-law relationships. Orbuch suggests that parents should embrace sons- and daughters-in-law but remember that daughters-in-law may be more sensitive to advice and input. Orbuch also recommends that husbands treat their wives' family members as they would treat their wives—with love and respect. Wives should do the same, but should also set clear boundaries when it comes to issues related to the marriage, personal problems, or parenting. This will allow in-laws to maintain a level of involvement without imposing on the relationship.

If there is something I have learnt from all these years of being married, it is that it is always a good idea to maintain a healthy but not-to-close relationship with the in-laws.Best to avoid being hostile and cut of but even getting too close can create fiction and the best way would be to tread the middle path of being courteous and respectful but not too interfering.
AmyHDecember 8th, 2012 at 4:27 AM
There have been times in my marriage when I have gone both ways. I started out trying to make them really like and love me, but when I felt like that didn't work then I avoided them all together. I guess over the past few years I have found more of a balance with them, which allows me to spend time with them in a friendly way when I have to to, but not going out of my way to try to be another daughter to them. I don't think that they really wanted that, and personally I ddin't really want that either.
benjaminDecember 8th, 2012 at 11:40 AM
I didn't get married expecting my parents and wife to become best friends, but I also thought that they would have a better relationship with each other than what they do. Sometimes it is as if they don't even want to be in the same room with each other and I really do wish that all of them would grow up a little and be more civil with each other.
LilaDecember 9th, 2012 at 3:58 PM
Good grief, can't we all just get along?! I don't want them breathing down my neck but at the same time I don't want to feel like I have to head in the other direction just because they're coming over either. Know what I think? I think that many people just automatically assume that these are people that they will not get along with so they do everything that they can to make this into their reality. The gfact of the matter is that most people are actually cordial and kind to their in laws and get along just fine, but it's the bad cases that make all the headlines and that's what we think that most of the relationships are actually like.
DwayneDecember 9th, 2012 at 9:30 PM
This is probably a question most of us will never get a definitive answer to.I don't know what it is about this relationship but in laws are almost always those magnets that go repel no matter how you place them!
NancyDecember 10th, 2012 at 1:26 AM
I have never had a major falling out with my in-laws. My mother-in-law has royally ticked me off before, but we've always made up in the end. Or, well, I guess enough time as gone by that we are both able to let go of whatever got us going. I think at the bottom of it all, I am grateful to my mother-in-law for raising my husband to be the man he is today. And, I think she is grateful to me for making him happy and raising two great kids.
Mary AnneDecember 10th, 2012 at 1:28 AM
Nancy, you are lucky my mother in law was out to get me from the start. i dont no how my husband wput up w/ her all that time. he is a saint as far as im concerned.
jason bennettDecember 10th, 2012 at 4:07 AM
Guess I am lucky that my wife and I both have pretty good relationships with one another's parents. We have all known each other for a long time so I can see how this aspect would help. But we have always tried to have an open mind and be pleasant with them even when there of course have been times when we didn't necessarily want to. It is just so much easier to be civil than it is to be mean and carry around anger for no good reason.

I imported about 20,000 records and all was fine. Then I went to import a few more, and the import just "stopped working". No errors, nothing, it would just reload the page when I uploaded the file.
Took about 2 hours of debugging to figure out the problem, so posting this here to hopefully save others that time/trouble.
Inside the main PHP file for this plug-in you'll find a line of code like this:
$lastnum = $wpdb->get_col( $wpdb->prepare("SELECT * FROM $entry_tracking_table",0) );
That does a query of the entire entries table, which can easily cause the script to die with out of memory issues, or even just take a really long time to return. To fix the issue, I changed the line to this so that it will only query for the one row with the highest id value:
$lastnum = $wpdb->get_col( $wpdb->prepare("SELECT * FROM $entry_tracking_table order by id desc limit 1",0) );

People at work keep telling me that the food at Sugo is really nice and that I should really try it. I'm surprised that I didn't take their recommendation to come here sooner because when we went to Sugo for my boss's 60th birthday dinner celebrations, I was thoroughly impressed with the food they were serving up. Everything looked, smelled and tasted fantastic. And believe me, after that night I was definitely keen on coming back during lunch time to try some of their other food considering they are located just opposite to where I work.
Some chips to start the evening. The chips were very crispy and didn't have that oily feeling.
Fresh basil, garlic and mozarella pizza
Char grilled vegetables, ricotta cheese, garlic, lemon & basil pizza
A slice of the spice roasted pumpkin, spinach & caramelised onion pizza. I was very impressed by Sugo's pizzas. The crust was nice and thin, crisp and everything about it was deicious.
Chicken and beetroot salad (with extra cucumbers)
Warm chicken and bacon salad with avocado, parmesan, croutons, lavender mustard & balsamic dressing.
Salad: Roast pumpkin, field mushrooms, tomatoes, black olives, goats cheese, rocket & balsamic dressing
Salad: Rocket leaves with avocado, semi dried tomatoes, fetta cheese, balsamic, lemon & olive oil (with added chicken)
Baked in the oven: Roasted pumpkin, ricotta & spinach canelloni with creamy tomato sauce & a crunchy parmesan crust
And finally for dessert we had some sort of chocolatey mousse cake from Chef Momo down on Station St, Malvern. I must check out this cake shop when I get the chance.
There were lots of other food being ordered around the table. The waft of smells coming from all the different risottos, pastas and gnocchi were absolutely intoxicating. I tried some of the pumpkin gnocchi and some of my other colleague's canelloni and it was all just so good. Just writing about this now makes me want to go back.

Dr. Conrad Murray was led away in handcuffs, found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in Michael Jackson's 2009 death. The judge said Murray is a risk to society.
"Dr. Murray's reckless conduct in this case poses a demonstrable risk to the safety of the public.,' said presiding Judge Michael E. Pastor.
The jury sided with the prosecution, agreeing that Dr. Murray administered a fatal dose of the anesthetic Propofol to the pop star in the run-up to his big concert comeback.
"Our sympathies go out to Jackson family for the loss that they have suffered," said prosecutor David Walgen. "Not a pop icon, but a son and a brother."
Jackson's fans and supporters erupted in cheers outside court.
"We had no doubt. That's why we're here!"
Family members have been in court throughout the trial. Jackson's sister LaToya expressed her joy.
"Michael was watching over us. He was watching over us. (are you happy?) Yes. Very happy."
Jurors deliberated fewer than nine hours and were escorted from the building after the verdict was read. Murray's attorneys left the courthouse without commenting.
The defense tried to portray Jackson as an addict, desperate for sleep. They claimed Murray was a victim of Michael Jackson.
"He was just a little fish in a big dirty pond," said defense attorney Ed Chernoff.
Dr. Murray faces up to fours years in prison at his sentencing on November 29. Murray's medical license will be suspended, and he could lose it for good.
Murray could end up serving less time to overcrowding in the California jail system.

Those that think housing is going to remain perpetually moribund or face further significantly falling prices are going to be in error. We are on the verge of a significant turn, if for no other reason than the rental cost equivalance has now pushed above housing cost. Further reasons for this turn can be seen by the low for-sale inventory levels now evident in many markets, which will necessitate an uptick in the construction sector.
Housing can only reach a bottom if the FED keeps rates low. It will fall again if rates are ever normalized. I don't think the FED can really normalize rates back to the 5% level where mortgages would be 6-7% without causing the whole economy and banking system to crash again. That is the bigger dilemma that US economy faces.

A new normal: Why broadcast shows are looking more like cable
For example, last year the "Game of Thrones" series premiere drew approximatley 2.2 million viewers and the season finale drew about 3.04 million sets of eyeballs. Those numbers were big enough to induce HBO to renew the series. However, for primetime programming on broadcast networks an audience of only 3 million viewers would likely result in immediate cancellation. Indeed, consider the fate of "The Playboy Club" — the show NBC cancelled in 2011 after its three episodes averaged "only" 4 million viewers per showing.
Second, industry experts note that the business models of premium cable and broadcast television are inherently different. Whereas HBO is purely in the business of selling subscriptions, broadcast networks must sell advertisements to survive. And, in fact, watchdog groups have successfully pressured advertisers to drop commercials during shows the groups deem objectionable.
"I think it's important for us to have a good understanding of where we stand in our relationship with the networks," Henson said. "I think most of us tend to assume wrongly that we are the audience that networks are programming for, and that if they're putting this stuff out there it must mean there's a demand for it. And I don't think that's necessarily true.
"We are actually the product, and the consumer that they're trying to reach is the company that's buying ad time. And they're selling us as eyeballs that are going to see those ads."
Perception becomes reality
The idea that broadcast programming increasingly emulates cable offerings carries with it the strong implication that cable shows are simply the better fare at this point in time. And that belief — putting aside the question of whether it's a valid presumption — is manifesting itself in myriad ways.
Consider, for example, this year's six contenders for the primetime Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series. For the first time ever, not a single nominee comes from one of the four major broadcast networks: HBO and AMC each produced two nominated series, while Showtime and PBS yielded one nominee apiece.
To that end, the New York Times' Mike Hale openly wondered last week whether critics are withholding praise from several excellent broadcast programs purely because the shows don't hail from a cable outlet.
"The real victims of cable envy — the notion that creativity and distinction in TV drama now lie entirely with cable channels like AMC, HBO and Showtime and their model of short seasons, serialized stories and writer-producer autonomy — are the shows that don't get the credit they deserve because the attention of critics, and the TV industry itself, is so firmly focused elsewhere," Hale wrote.
Silver linings
It isn't all bad news if network programming adopts certain characteristics of cable shows, some TV critics say. For example, new primetime series such as FOX's comedy "The Mindy Project" and ABC's drama "Nashville" are earning a consensus of rave reviews for sophistication and scope.
Common Sense Media TV editor Sierra Filucci noted that when objectionable content appears on broadcast television during primetime programming, parents who watch the shows together with their children can translate those moments into invaluable opportunities to casually dialogue with their teens.
"It's certainly challenging for parents because there are so many more places for kids to consume media, and there's so much more media out there," Filucci said. "It's not just network television, and it's not just one television in the living room that kids can watch. Kids are watching on their phones, on their computers, on cable
"(But) our No. 1 message is still to talk to kids and keep the lines of communication open, and as much as possible to watch alongside kids — especially primetime TV, which can be a great time for families to hang out in the living room and watch TV together. A lot of that content is not appropriate for younger kids and tweens, but it can be something that teenagers and their parents can watch together and then just talk about what happens."

R&D Investments and the Spatial Dimension: Evidence from Firm Level Data
This paper proposes to investigate the effect of spillovers on firms' R&D investment decisions. We develop an analysis merging the geographer's toolbox with standard econometric techniques. For a chosen sample of sectors, we test the existence of positive spatial autocorrelation at the level of R&D investments. We provide results on how far the local environment may influence the firms' investment decisions, hence to what extent localization economies matter for agglomeration. Data confirm that the proximity to other firms investing in R&D may produce positive externalities. Finally, the diversity versus specialization debate is tackled.

More teachers and principals are reacting to the change in Dothan's magnet school enrollment process.
The new system will be based on standardized test scores, grades and conduct in first through fifth grade.
Dothan city school officials say this will give more students the chance to attend a magnet school.
They say it also takes the pressure off parents who can't get to the application or make the deadline.
Students going into kindergarten or out of the school system will still be required to apply.
Heard Magnet's Principal Peggy Maddox says getting in is just the first part.
"We have a requirement to get in, that way we know we're getting children at least average and above average. Then we have a requirement to remain. There's an academic requirement that you can't make below a c and there's a behavioral requirement that says you can't make below a b," Maddox said.
Both Heard Magnet School and Montana Magnet School will have an open house Wednesday at 9:00 a.m. if parents are interested in getting more information.

Relentless by Jason Aldean
Speaking of Johnny Cash, let's establish a new country commandment: Thou shalt not name a generic party anthem after one of the last century's most adventurous musical pioneers.
The hit "Johnny Cash" sets the tone for Jason Aldean's second album, a sleek set of contemporary country that only occasionally seems to have any goal beyond sounding acceptable between radio commercials.
The groundbreaking music that made giants of Johnny and Porter aimed a whole lot higher.

Hi there,
I love this plug-in so much. Thanks!
Anyway, I'm writing because I was wondering if you can customize LazyLoad for me. I have a page that has a grid / table of pictures, with 7 images per row. Is there a way to lazy-load one picture at a time for every row made visible? Maybe a few milliseconds delay in loading each picture in the same row.
Again, thanks for the help.

The M/C List: #15 - #11: Pixar, coming of age, and courting controversy
I think it's only in the runners-up that we have this many ties. Quite a few in part one of this article. Don't blame me. Blame all the filmmakers who did worthwhile and interesting work this year. In the top ten, each film had to fight for its own slot. Here, though, I'm trying to spread the love a little bit...
#15 / "Anti-Christ" and "Love Exposure"
Lars Von Trier was damn near attacked by the crowd at Cannes over his newest film, and trying to get a mainstream American distributor to pick up a four-hour film about a kid who decides to become the best upskirt panty photographer in Japan is madness. Both of these films sound like transgression for the sake of it, but I don't think that's a fair description in either case. "Anti-Christ" has been called misogynist, but that seems like an almost deliberate misreading of the material. This is a powerfully controlled piece of mood and atmosphere, an emotional horror film about the cumulative effects of misogyny on women and what happens when all of that cultural pressure finally causes someone to crack. It is no accident that Von Trier named his protagonists Woman and Man. He's painting with big symbols here, and it works precisely because he aims so broad. There are horrible images in the film that sear the eyes, but that's the point. This is what horror does at its best... it forces us to deal with the things that most profoundly unsettle us. I know most "horror" fans don't really want anything that is difficult or upsetting, but that's your flaw, not the genre's, and Von Trier's movie shouldn't be penalized for being deliberately ugly. Not every film needs to comfort us or hold our hand. "Love Exposure" tackles at least a half-dozen big ideas, including institutionalized religion, love, the way fetishism in our culture defines people, and more, and it juggles them all with aplomb. A young man with a strict Catholic priest for a father decides to become an epic-scale sinner so he has something to share with his father in confession, and that drive leads him to meet the love of his life while dressed as a woman. She falls in love with his female self, but he wants desperately to make her love him as a man, and that fuels a huge, sprawling story that is ultimately one of the most innocent things I've seen all year. In both cases, audiences might read descriptions of these films or individual scenes in them and decide they aren't going to watch them because they are "dirty." Don't deprive yourself. Any real adult who is interested in the full range of what cinema can do should seek these out.
#14 / "Up"
Pixar's latest is front-loaded, to be sure, with an opening ten minutes that lays an audience flat and a third-act that seems almost mundane compared to much of what the company has done. No matter. "Up" is yet another triumph from one of the best storytelling units that has ever been assembled, and they've added more classic characters to the roster while telling an effective, affecting tale about the unlikely way people come to depend on one another. Russell, Carl, and Dug are all equally charming character who couldn't be less alike, and the way the story gradually unites them to help a strange bird named Kevin is damn near effervescent.
#13 / "Observe & Report" and "The Invention Of Lying"
Comedy is not pretty. I remember hearing that when I was young, and it's never seemed more true than when watching these films this year. "Observe and Report" tells the story of a disturbed young man looking to make his mark on the world, even if that mark is a bullet hole, and "The Invention Of Lying" takes a clever "Twilight Zone" style conceit and uses it to launch a stealth attack on the entire notion of conformism and conditioning in our society, while also daring to question to purpose and nature of religion. Both films are blunt to the point of feeling like weapons more than movies, and both films turned audiences off in droves. No matter. These are not disposable comedies, built to forget as soon as you're done watching them. These are smart, edgy films that reward repeat viewings, and that dare to treat their audiences like intelligent adults. It's amazing they even exist.
#12 / "A Prophet"
Jacques Audiard has been building an incredible resume as a director over the last decade, and he's been working as a writer for almost 30 years now, but to me, it feels like everything came together for the first time here, with "A Prophet," a haunting film that takes the "life in prison" genre and supercharges it with a soul that's normally lacking from these films. A young Arab man is sent to prison, where he has to learn the rules of survival. He demonstrates a real knack for it, though, and gradually starts to move his way up the social ladder, eventually crossing into a world that is typically closed to his kind, the Mafia. The relationship between him and an Corsican crime boss is a study in the way power works, and in the way it fosters resentment that slowly simmers until someone has to die. The film is visually arresting, but beyond that, it feels authentic, organic, never forced despite the rigid structure of the script. It is a singular experience, and it managed to take a basic story (someone learning to survive in prison) and make it feel like it's being told for the very first time.
#11 / "Adventureland"
A fantastic cast and an assured director work together to make this deceptively slight piece into something that really sticks to the ribs. James Brennan (Jesse Eisenberg) gets stuck working for the summer, and even worse, he gets stuck working at a low-rent amusement park. What he views as a punishment rapidly becomes one of the formative experiences of his life thanks to the people he meets and the life experience he racks up during the park's off-hours. Greg Mottola doesn't try to turn this into a wacky comedy, but instead allows the genuine nature of the film's observations on summer jobs and the way we survive them to set the tone. It's a gentle film, a small film, and, yes, a great film.
And someone should give that Kristen Stewart some work in films people actually go to see. She's good.
That's it for the runners-up. So far so good, eh?
Now it's time for the big show... the top ten...

I like the Hueman theme very much but I need to make it more suitable for me and the content I have on my old website. This means that I need to make the width of the site 1000px. In the theme option I only can go down to 1024px. I saw that I could change this in the theme-option.php file but when I make a copy of that file and make the changes it won't work. I work with a child theme and every php-file I've made changes to I made a copy to my child theme. What am I doing wrong? Is it that It's a copy with the exact text in it besides the small changes I made? What kind of text line should I have in the php-file if that is the case.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - A man convicted of killing a Montgomery police officer in Sept. 2006 has been sentenced to death.
At a hearing Thursday, Montgomery County Circuit Judge Truman Hobbs Jr. rejected a jury's recommendation that 34-year-old Mario Woodward of Montgomery be sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Woodward was convicted in Aug. in the shooting death of Officer Keith Houts. Prosecutors said the officer was slain during a traffic stop in north Montgomery.
Under Alabama law, the sentence will automatically be appealed.

Hutchinson Island (Georgia)
|Hutchinson Island, Georgia
|United States
|Chatham County
Hutchinson Island is a river island in the Savannah River, north of downtown Savannah in Chatham County, Georgia, United States. The island is formed where the Back River breaks off to the north from the Savannah River. Historically, Hutchinson Island's land use has been primarily industrial, much of which supported the Port of Savannah, one of the busiest containerization cargo ports in the world.[1] The island is roughly 7 miles long and 1 mile wide at its widest point.
Hutchinson Island also played a major role in the capture of Savannah during the American Civil War. After capturing Atlanta, Union Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman turned his army east and south, toward the Atlantic Ocean, and arrived in Savannah in December 1864. Rather than destroying Savannah, Sherman elected to demand the city's surrender. Confederate Gen. William J. Hardee led his troops, under cover of darkness, across the Savannah River on a makeshift pontoon bridge, across Hutchinson Island and into the South Carolina wilderness.[2]
On the Back River, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers formerly maintained a tidal control system that slowed the natural filling-in of the main river's shipping channel. The tide gate was abandoned after studies showed that it had increased saltwater intrusion into the upriver freshwater Savannah National Wildlife Refuge.[3]
Totaling approximately 2,000 acres (8.1 km2), Hutchinson Island was targeted as the site for a public-private partnership to build a convention center and hotel.[4] Chatham County voters approved spending $63 million in public special-purpose local-option sales tax money for the trade center and $10 million for the road system on the island. The Savannah International Trade and Convention Center and the Westin Savannah Harbor Resort were built.[5][6] In addition, the state of Georgia provided $18 million, and former land owner CSX railroad donated 25 acres (100,000 m2) for the public trade center.[6]
Public monies also helped build a sanctioned Champ Car-style road race track, and sanctioned Indy Lights races were organized.[7] The track closed, but has recently been reworked and reopened.[8]
One of the first events to use the reopened Hutchinson Island track was the Savannah Speed Classic, a part of the Hilton Head Island Motoring Festival & Concours d'Elegance, taking place the last weekend of October (in Savannah) through the first weekend in November (in Hilton Head Island) each year. [9]
While much of Hutchinson Island has been trade convention and resort-oriented in the past, the island's first residential community is under way, The Reserve at Savannah Harbor, and plans are being drawn to develop the riverfront into a mixed-use, urban extension of Savannah.[10]
The Georgia Ports Authority and International Paper still own undeveloped tracts of land on the far west end of Hutchinson Island.[6]
Ferry boats take visitors and residents across the Savannah River on a regular, daily schedule. The island can also be accessed by car from the south, via the Talmadge Memorial Bridge, and from the north, in South Carolina, via U.S. Highway 17.
