The Federal Reserve is shortening the window between when it releases policy statements and when Chairman Ben Bernanke holds news conferences. All eight meetings of the Federal Reserve will now end with statements issued at 2 p.m. Eastern time. Four of those announcements will be followed by a 2:30 p.m. news conference, as opposed to the previous schedule, which had a two-hour gap between the statements and Mr. Bernanke's media address.

GLOSS Moderne High-Gloss Masque & Serum Duo
- Overview
- Features
This is a limited time offer so stock up now!
Infused with keratin, a natural protein found in hair, GLOSS Moderne's Luxury Hair Care Collection strengthens brittle strands, "breathing life" back into hair to help prevent split ends and breakage. It is also infused with panthenol, a pro-vitamin (Vitamin B5) that moisturizes and coats hair's rough surface making it smooth, shiny and soft. However, what goes into a product is just as important as what does not. GLOSS Moderne's Luxury Hair Care Collection is pleasantly free of harsh, unnecessary chemicals and completely sulfate-free, sodium chloride-free and paraben-free --all of which are said to be drying, allergenic and irritating to the skin.
Set Includes:
GLOSS Moderne High-Gloss Masque - a superior moisture treatment to smooth, soften and add shine to damaged, frizzy hair.
GLOSS Moderne High-Gloss Serum - Relentless thermal protection and startling shine that smoothes hair without the harsh ingredients of parabens, sulfates and sodium chloride.

In hindsight, some of the best things turn out to have been the most obvious.
This was destined to be a year in which the biggest tech companies would consolidate their hold on power. You could have set your stock picking on auto-pilot, almost.
The smartphone duo of Apple aapl 0.09521716838790009% Apple Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD136.66 0.13 0.09521716838790009% /Date(1487973600360-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 21240788 AFTER HOURS USD136.63 -0.0300000000000011 -0.021952290355627103% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 535797 P/E Ratio 16.366467065868264 Market Cap 716992180951.685 Dividend Yield 1.66837406702766% Rev. per Employee 1874840 More quote details and news » (ticker: AAPL) and Samsung Electronics (005930.Korea), specifically, notched up one success after another.
I guessed only half that story, though, as I mostly ignored Samsung as a stock pick, preferring to focus on Apple. Up 36% this year, Samsung's shares reflect its becoming the biggest cellphone maker in the land. Against a backdrop of 15.6% appreciation for the Nasdaq, 13.2% for the Standard & Poor's 500, and 7.4% for the Dow, Samsung's performance was stellar for a decades-old tech giant. Even Apple's winning a $1.05 billion award against the Korean company in August on patent-infringement charges didn't slow Samsung down.
Apple was a more mixed bag this year. Up 28%, it was hardly a disappointment. It performed strongly right out of the gate, rising more than 50% in the first three months of the year on the astounding strength in iPhone sales in its December 2011 and March 2012 quarterly reports.
I accurately predicted in March that the stock might take a breather, and it did, just briefly ("Now Hear This, Investors: Believe It or Not, Apple Is…Cheap!" March 19). And I was right in anticipating that the shares would rise toward the September introduction of the iPhone 5 ("Apple Is a Safe Haven in a Tech World Riven With Fear," July 9). I waxed enthusiastic about that product introduction, predicting an imminent rally on the premise Apple would make money "more swiftly and surely than ever before" ("Amazing Apple Does It Again," Sept. 17).
What rally there was, however, was short-lived. The stock, then at a lifetime high of $696.98, rose a little further, to $705.07, before losing altitude, fast.
There were specific issues that caused lots of negative headlines, such as the debacle of Apple's new Maps program. And there were broader concerns that Apple's innovation had ceased with the passing of founder Steve Jobs last year, and that its tremendous growth would slow.
With the stock trading at the time at an ominous $666, I argued that the critics had no real concrete arguments, just vague conjecture ("Apple Critics Sharpen Their Pens, but Lack Logic," Oct. 8).
The joke was on me. The shares proceeded to fall 20% to a recent $519. Clearly, I should have heeded the instincts of folks like Doug Kass, who warned that the best stocks will drop like a stone when it's time for investors to cash in hefty profits.
In contrast to my unwavering faith in Apple, I had a midcourse change of heart in 2012 about the titans of personal computing, Intel intc 0.9673852957435047% Intel Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD36.53 0.35 0.9673852957435047% /Date(1487973600063-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 18181670 AFTER HOURS USD36.51 -0.0200000000000031 -0.05474952094169176% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 435922 P/E Ratio 17.312796208530806 Market Cap 172713834228.516 Dividend Yield 2.8469750889679717% Rev. per Employee 560255 More quote details and news » (INTC) and Microsoft (MSFT).
After starting the year arguing that Intel was holding up OK despite a weak PC market, and that Microsoft could rise and rise in advance of its next operating system version, Windows 8, I threw in the towel when things started to look even grimmer for the PC business.
The turning point was Microsoft's announcement in June that it would go into competition with its hardware partners with the Surface tablet computer. It was an important clue that this is no longer your grandfather's PC industry ("Microsoft Tries to Etch a Future in Tablets," June 25). Intel shares have fallen 23% since that article and are down 15% for the year, while Microsoft fell 11% but is now up 5.5% for the year.
Early in 2012 I declared that it would be all about cloud-computing companies, but that some of the stocks were too dear to recommend ("Forecast for 2012: A Cloud-y Kind of Year," Jan. 2).
Indeed, server-technology vendor Fusion-IO (FIO) continues to be a great name, but its shares are down 7%, a consequence of strong results not living up to the loftiest expectations.
I didn't exactly recommend shares of competitors OCZ Technology (OCZ) and Stec (STEC), but I wished I'd warned against them. Their shares fell 70% and 40%, respectively, this year.
In a similar vein, I wrote in August that the other really big trend in corporate IT, so-called big data, had already played out for the stocks of some young companies, leaving little room for more share-price appreciation ("Big Data Is Giving Small Techs a Big Boost," Aug. 13). Sure enough, Mellanox Technologies mlnx 0.5076142131979695% Mellanox Technologies Ltd. U.S.: Nasdaq USD49.5 0.25 0.5076142131979695% /Date(1487973600195-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 648783 AFTER HOURS USD49.4915 -0.00849999999999795 -0.01717171717171717% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 40341 P/E Ratio 137.5 Market Cap 2412679555.89294 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 358037 More quote details and news » (MLNX) crumbled 45%, amidst worries over rising competition. InfoBlox (BLOX), a hot IPO this year, is down 15% since the article, and shares of Qlik Technologies (QLIK) are flat.
Over the summer I believed that cable providers— Comcast CMCSA 0.6374501992031872% Comcast Corp. Cl A U.S.: Nasdaq USD37.89 0.24 0.6374501992031872% /Date(1487973600259-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 11311520 AFTER HOURS USD37.84 -0.0499999999999972 -0.13196093956188967% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 246306 P/E Ratio 21.22689075630252 Market Cap 179680409904.053 Dividend Yield 1.66270783847981% Rev. per Employee 505679 More quote details and news » (CMCSA), Cablevision (CVC), Time Warner Cable (TWC), and Charter Communications chtr 0.7151003298092038% Charter Communications Inc. Cl A U.S.: Nasdaq USD326.75 2.32 0.7151003298092038% /Date(1487973600102-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1149176 AFTER HOURS USD326.75 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 10977 P/E Ratio 20.840375796462716 Market Cap 87862425177.2139 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 316973 More quote details and news » (CHTR)—were good bets for their relatively high dividends, given that encroachment by other forms of Internet and television consumption would take a long time to erode their market positions.
I was half right. The two most speculative names, Charter and Cablevision, fell 5% and 8%, respectively, following the article. But Comcast rose 8% and Time Warner, over 7%. Hopefully, two out of four will be considered not terrible.
In August I said that Cisco Systems csco 0.8225616921269095% Cisco Systems Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD34.32 0.28 0.8225616921269095% /Date(1487973600188-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 18644557 AFTER HOURS USD34.29 -0.0300000000000011 -0.08741258741258741% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2492754 P/E Ratio 17.6 Market Cap 171869614917.036 Dividend Yield 3.37995337995338% Rev. per Employee 659023 More quote details and news » (CSCO) was in "a place just right," with modest revenue growth but an equally modest valuation. It also had a newfound largesse, vowing to keep its payout ratio at 50% of free cash flow.
The stock is up almost 5% since that story, as investors have responded to results that were relatively good in an otherwise rough market for networking equipment. The stock is up 9% for the year.
As it turned out, the skepticism I had in a prescriptive cover story about Hewlett-Packard hpq 0.2840909090909091% HP Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD17.65 0.05 0.2840909090909091% /Date(1487973799532-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 19202485 AFTER HOURS USD17.65 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 613587 P/E Ratio 12.172413793103448 Market Cap 30101210378.4748 Dividend Yield 3.0073654390934843% Rev. per Employee 994449 More quote details and news » (HPQ) ("Game Plan for HP," Feb. 20) didn't go far enough. In laying out the challenges for newly installed CEO Meg Whitman to renovate the world's largest PC maker successfully, I wrote that it seemed like a nearly impossible task, which has proved true so far. I didn't take a specific position on HP shares but pointed readers toward other stocks like Apple and Cisco. In subsequent columns I warned readers away from the shares. And as HP has limped through lousy earnings reports and massive write-downs, the shares have plunged 52% since our first story.
As I said, sometimes the surest things are right under your nose.

As the 2013 Mini Paceman nears its on-sale date, the brand has launched a new ad campaign that demonstrates the tagline, "Design with Bite." In the new ad titled "Street Attitude," a blue Paceman navigates the urban streets of New York, but if you don't like what happens at the end of the video, Mini has provided two alternate endings shown below.
At the start of the video, a man is browsing through music at a record store, when he suddenly looks at his watch and realizes he might be late. He jumps into his Paceman (a two-door Countryman), picks up some takeout food in record time, and drives around town only to meet with another brown Paceman at an intersection. Both coupes take off in opposite directions, but the blue one beats it to the garage that doubles as a loft.
The guy's date emerges from the brown Paceman and flips him the bird (probably for almost crashing into her at the intersection). Though the regular Mini Paceman is available with 121 hp or 181 hp under the hood, the guy in the video may have made even better time with a Mini Paceman JCW, which has 208 hp and a 0-60 mph time of 6.5 seconds.
Don't like that ending? Watch all three Mini Paceman video endings below.

Skip to comments.Help with computer.
Posted on 06/27/2008 2:27:03 PM PDT by raybbr
I have an older computer that I have cleaned out of W2000 Pro. I tried loading a version of XP Pro that I have on this machine. MS wants $269 for an additional key. I am not willing to pay that.
I am currently downloading Ubuntu and would like to put Linux on this box. It has an Athlon XP with a gig of memory and no video card.
I don't plan on any gaming or high end computing. Just photo editing, video editing and web surfing.
Do I need Ubuntu or is there something else smaller and simpler I can use?
Also, what can I use to wipe XP off and start over? Will the installation disk of Ubuntu do that?
Thanks in advance, Ray.
Now that I have the Studio ISO on a dvd will it load over the other Ubuntu?
Ubuntu loaded and is running fine it seems. I haven't used any real graphics heavy apps but the games it came with look ok. It's on a cheap monitor for now.
Yeah, it gives several options.
The first option is almost always the one you DON'T want.
It preserves your previous install, whether Ubuntu or Windows.
Generally the second option down that says something like, "Guided - Use the entire disk," is what you want.
There will other options like that, with LVM or encryption but you probably don't need that. Just use the basic "Use entire disk" and that will wipe everything else on the drive.
You don't have to re-install to get Studio. You can do this:
Open a terminal. On Ubuntu (gnome) Select Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
Inside the terminal type:
sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop
There are ways to do that with the GUI, but that's fastest.
Then log out. Select the Big Red Buttion at the top right and hit Log Out.
When you go to log back in click on Options at the bottom left and change your desktop to Studio.
(I think. I don't have one in front of me.)
This machine is not hooked up the net yet. In fact, I have to install the wireless PCI card. I hope the drivers will work on Ubuntu.
That's going to depend on the hardware.
Here's a list of supported hardware...
And here's the definitive documentation on getting wireless to work on Ubuntu.
As far as the video card goes, your machine is an Athlon XP so probably AGP 2x or 4x. You can get decent used video cards for that incredibly cheap on eBay or other places for under $40, like an nVidia 6 series with 128 MB RAM. Stick with nVidia cards since ATI cards didn't play well with AMD machines back then.
I'm a student, and I get all sorts of free stuff from Microsoft's DreamSpark program, as well as through the IEEE Computer Society, but I have never heard of a student edition of Windows XP (though there is an academic retail box license you can buy), and I don't remember Microsoft giving away Windows XP client licenses, though I do get access to Server.
I have found that anything using the RT chipset "just works."
Edimax uses the RT chipset almost exclusively.
So that's all I buy.
As a bonus, Edimax tends to be rather inexpensive too.
Actually, I omitted something. The IEEE Computer Society's student program gives me free access to both Vista Business and XP Professional, in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors! Woohoo!
I can't open a terminal to check the settings. I can't load the terminal tools. It tells me the "manufacturer" (me) is not allowing it. This is not going to be easy.
It's a Linksys. It model is listed on the site you linked.
Ummmmm..... Feeling generous?
If your wifi card isn't supported by Linux.
Rather than go through the (steep) learning curve installing non-Linux drivers.
Go to any major electronics store, and buy the cheapest USB wireless thumb drive you can buy. Basic generic.
It will probably work.
His motherboard has a PCI-E slot....you can get cards at a reasonable price though.,
Great....what about sound?
You should be okay then.
The student license for XP non-transferable.
If you're going to get an illegal copy of XP, just get one from Pirate Bay
Got to go to bed.
Do yourself a big favor. Get a new computer (I suggest the Dell Outlet Center) with Vista Home Premium already installed. That's what I did eight months ago on my three home computers and never looked back. You can download free OpenOffice and it will work just fine with Office files.
If you listen to all of the Vista bashers you will think this is an operating system created by Satan himself. It is total bulloney. Vista works fine.
I turned around and sold my four year old XP computers for what I had put into brand new Dell computers with the proper hardware and have never regretted it.
I went through the dual boot mode and Ubuntu and in the end I asked myself why I wanted to put myself through agony for no good reason. Linux is not for the average user and there are no advantages that I can see except for the masochists who just like to cut off their noses to spite their faces.
My $0.02.
If you're going to get an illegal copy of XP, just get one from Pirate Bay
Yeah..., Y'know there might possibly be just a smidge bit of difference in the wisdom of using a genuine copy of XP that is illegal solely because the license doesn't allow transferral between parties, and installing and using a copy downloaded from pirate sites that could have any number of keyloggers etc in it.
Kinda like there's a difference between having your brother pretend he's you to pick up your medication, and buying your pills from a guy named "Domino" down on the corner of fifth and MLK Blvd.
ping for later read
I have loaded Mint over the Ubuntu. It's working too. Still having wifi problems. I have been through the Mint forums and not getting any real solutions.
Mint knows the card it there. It just won't connect to my wireless router. I used the Windows wireless drivers tab to load the .inf file for the Linsys card.
Not sure I really have the time to make this a project. I thought it would be simpler. I am going to try to connect the PC to a cable to the router.
Ah. This is the difference between using native drivers and using ndiswrapper.
ndiswrapper is a hack to let Linux use Windows drivers. It works, but only for small values of work.
If you want full support, like WPA, you need to use a card that uses native drivers.
ndiswrapper doesn't support encryption on every card that it "supports."
I posted a thread on the Mint forum.
Take a look and tell me what you think.
There are two different kinds of wireless under Linux.
Native and ndiswrapper.
ndiswrapper works, sort of. It uses a wrapper around Windows drivers.
Native drivers use their own drivers and tend to implement all of the required features.
ndiswrapper is a quick hack to get some functionality out of a wireless device.
You can spend a lot of time trying to get hardware working with ndiswrapper.
Or you can use fully supported hardware like the RT series of chips.
I like this one.
Allright. I ordered the card. I hope you will be around when it comes to help me out. Thanks again.
Know anyone who need a Linksys Wifi card for $35?
That does happen.
WShy would you want to get rid of tha (other thsn it NOT being "Netgear".
But still.
That's the ONE!!!!!
I would never have thunk of that.
I'm ON it.
True, but the student-priced Office 2007 Ultimate license obtained through Microsoft's The Ultimate Steal program for about $60.00 is most definitely transferable, as it's a FPP retail license.
Of course, around here, folks are using Open Office, so it's not particularly applicable.
Linux Mint 5
June 28, 2008.. Review
Its been a while since I did a technological (read: geek) blog, so I thought I would update you on whats going on.
As you are aware, I am a full-fledged geek by trade and passion and I have gone from Windows to Mac to Linux. My Linux evolution went from Linspire to Mepis to PCLinuxOS to Ubuntu. I stayed with PCLinuxOS and Ubuntu for the longest. However, I have always read good things about another distribution called Linux Mint. Its based on the latest Ubuntu release but with a lot of add-ons. The latest version is called Linux Mint 5, Elyssa. So, at the office, I downloaded the latest iso and tried it out to see how it all worked.
First of all, there are always some things I keep in mind when trying any new Linux distro, the primary thing being, How would the average user feel about using this OS? Is it (very) simple to install? Is it easy to use? Is it easy to get help? Is it easy to add or remove applications? Is the terminal (command line) used a lot? In my opinion, all of these are valid questions, especially if I am looking to recommend an open source alternative to proprietary software or hardware. Which I am always looking for.
Mint Elyssa is up and running with one exception - wi fi. I have started a thread http://www.linuxmint.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=14222&sid=58626d18664a2a68bfe5481dbecfa91a that has been very educational.
I like the OS very much. It's a learning curve to get the full functionality. I LOVE the terminal function.
Anyway, take a look and see if anything strikes you. Ray
"what can I use to wipe XP off and start over? I always use magnets.
Looks like folks that know what they are doing on that thread....
Amen... :D
I agree. I dumped XP on this machine to install Vista (x64) and have had NO problems in the last year.
As a matter of fact, on my Dynabook (laptop), it had Japanese XP Home installed, but didn't come with a CD... I went back to the store and asked (I was having problems and wanted to reinstall).. and they told me that the licensed XP Home was ON THE HD!?!? (wtf!?) I had to hit some function key or another during boot to get to it.
I decided I wanted to install an English version of XP PRO instead.. so I did. SO many problems with the drivers since it was a laptop AND had a Japanese keyboard. I gave up and went ahead and reinstalled the Japanese version of XP Home.. :/
THEN I installed VISTA and everything fell into place on its own! no problems whatsoever, although I spent 2 days searching the web for a graphics driver for that model I had (4 years old now)... Japanese support sites are NOT the friendliest.. had to go through about 15 web pages to be able to finally be able to download the latest driver (All Japanese.. mostly kanji X( )
As for Linux... I've been wanting to mess with it for a few years... but the limitations on games (I'm an extreme gamer) has held me back. If I get around to setting up my spare AMD system, I might play around with it.. not sure wich one yet though.
Thanks for that info... I am DLing the torrent now :D
Package management (by John Frey)
***********************EXCERPT Intro**************************
A few weeks ago on DistroWatch there was some debate about package managers. I think you will agree that we can never know too much about package management. I have done some research and would like to share some of what I have learned.
What is a package?
The first thing we need to know is, what is a package? There are two ways to install software. The first way is to get source code and compile it on your system.
The 2nd way is to get and install a package. A package contains source code pre-compiled and packaged as a binary installation file (executable). It may include icons, libraries, configuration files, binaries, man pages, desktop shortcuts, header files, fonts, etc. In addition, it may contain meta data, such as version information, package maintainer and software authors' names and contact information, licensing, changelogs, READMEs and web location for the project and source code. Each package format has a file structure for storing data and is compressed. When the package is executed, it uncompresses the data and copies all the files from the package into the file system of the operating system, creating symbolic links where needed, putting start-up links in the menu and on the desktop, and sometimes giving configuration options to the user.
Packages are distribution and version-specific as the location for dependencies may vary between distributions and between versions of a distribution. Sometimes it is possible to download and install software the Windows way by just clicking on the package, provided it is compatible with the operating system.
I don't plan on any gaming or high end computing. Just photo editing, video editing and web surfing.
Was just looking at this distro ....:
Got some Bird photos with a new SONY Alpha2 Digital camera I want to see what I can do with improving.
***********************EXCERPT Intro **********************
Grafpup is a compact distribution containing the Linux kernel and various Open Source and freeware programs. It is especially well suited towards graphic artists and other imaging proffessionals but has many other tools available as well. Grafpup has been loosely based upon Puppy Linux, which is a creation of Barry Kauler. However, there are a lot of unique features which set it apart both from it's parent and most other Linux distributions.
Grafpup strives to provide a complete workflow for the digital artist, from beginning to end. As such along with the major graphics applications like Gimp and Inkscape you will also find a variety of support programs and extra features. Color management is enabled for all applications that support it, and there is a basic selection of color profiles included in the standard install. For those doing photographic work there is almost complete support for raw image formats via both dcraw and the ufraw plugin (both Gimp and Cinepaint), as well as the gtkam utility for directly connecting a wide variety of cameras. Scribus and Abiword take care of publishing needs, and Gutenprint provides a wide range of printer drivers.
It's not 100%, but you can find a guide to PSP on Linux here:
If you invest in Crossover Office (http://www.codeweavers.com), you'll find that running a lot of Windows applications is a lot easier. Photoshop CS2, for instance, works very well.
I recently switched my main computer to Linux and I've never been so happy with my setup.
If the program doesn't run, it's VERY simple to set up a virtual copy of XP inside your Ubuntu with Virtualbox, which is also free to use. So, you can have the best of both worlds.
I downloaded Ubuntu and tried to connect via wireless. No luck. I downloaded Mint and that's running fine but still no wireless.
I ordered a new wireless card but am considering loading Linux Studio over the Mint.
Linux is fun the learning curve is very shallow. I can navigate my way around any Windows machine but I feel like a baby mouse in Linux.
I can't run XP on this machine. The XP I have came with only one license. That's why I'm putting Linux on. To get a second machine but I don't want to pay for another XP license.
You may want to try Xubuntu. It runs just as well as Ubuntu but uses the lightweight Xfce desktop environment as opposed to Ubuntu's GNOME desktop environment. I don't recommend any of the 8.04 releases because it's impossible to add new users or manage groups using the Users & Groups GUI program. Hopefully Xubuntu 8.04.1 fixes that. If it does, then I'll recommend Xubuntu 8.04. If you'd like an even lighter desktop environment, then go for Linux Mint 4,0 Fluxbox Community Edition (uses Fluxbox, which is VERY lightweight), OzOs (uses the latest builds of Enlightenment E17, which is very lightweight but as a very nice look), or gOS Ultimate E (remastered version of gOS Rocket E that I have on my laptop right now...I love it).
I have since installed Mint Elyssa. It works pretty good. I have the PC in the basement and haven't had a lot of time to hook up speakers and test it out. It took a few days to get the wi-fi up and running.

It was a day of drama, intrigue and poignancy here yesterday and it largely belonged to the Irish, who can produce a tale as well as tell one. Top billing went to the jockey Paul Carberry and trainer Noel Meade, who combined for a sparkling double with outsider Sir Oj and hot favourite Harchibald in the feature contests, the Robin Cook Memorial Gold Cup and the Bula Hurdle. And bubbling under was the sub-plot surrounding the loss of form of the Martin Pipe string, so pre-eminent at the Open meeting here just a month ago.
On that occasion, Our Vic led the charge. Yesterday, the seven-year-old started favourite to beat his 15 rivals in the main event, but made a hash of three of the first five fences and was pulled up by Timmy Murphy before completing a circuit. He was not the first out of an eventful contest, though; on the bend after the first obstacle Risk Accessor slipped and gave Tony McCoy a heavy fall.
The loss of the market leader sent a frisson through the stands, but all went smoothly thereafter as Our Armageddon and Therealbandit cut out the pace. Until the third last, that is, when the Paul Nicholls-trained Thisthatandtother, poised to overtake his stablemate Le Passing, fell and brought down Nicky Henderson's Fondmort, who had been galloping equally strongly.
The mêlée left Le Passing clear, but he was starting to run on fumes. His rider, Joe Tizzard, knew it as he tried to nurse him home, and behind him so did Carberry. Sir Oj, who neatly avoided his fallen rivals with a sidestep worthy of Phil Bennett, had most of the remaining field in front of him two out, but by the last, still with half a dozen lengths to make up, Carberry had Tizzard in his sights and his coal-black partner, named after O J Simpson by his owner, Brian Keenan, responded with a will.
"My lad was galloping, the other one wasn't," said the Irishman, "and I knew I could take him. Sure, you need things to go right, and they did for me when I missed the trouble. I lost a bit of ground, but I wasn't stopping."
Sir Oj, a 16-1 shot, won by a length, with five back to Lacdoudal, who pipped Brooklyn Breeze for third. And if Carberry had some luck on his side to take the £62,722 prize, all he needed to score on 10-11 favourite Harchibald was good judgement. The six-year-old has demonstrated in the past that he has his own ideas about his job - most famously when outbattled by Hardy Eustace in last season's Champion Hurdle - but yesterday he was simply in a different class to his rivals.
Going to the last running all over Intersky Falcon and Faasel, he was briefly hampered and had to be switched, but responded sweetly up the hill to score by a comfortable length and three-quarters and supplant Hardy Eustace as favourite for the title in March.
The novices' chase featured some of the best of the young staying brigade and, though credit must go to the winner, Exotic Dancer, equal plaudits are due to the runner-up, Bewleys Berry, who jumped magnificently and was clawing back ground at the end over a trip too short and who, it transpired, had trouble breathing throughout. "He'll run in a tongue-strap next time," said his trainer, Howard Johnson.
The much-vaunted Celtic Son, the 2-1 favourite from the Pipe yard, found nothing for pressure close home. The 14-times champion trainer has now sent out 37 runners without a victory and his strike-rate of five per cent in the past fortnight is in stark contrast to the 32 per cent of the man at the top of the table, Nicholls.
McCoy, rider of Exotic Dancer, lay immobile for several minutes after coming off Risk Accessor, but recovered to take the finale on Black Jack Ketchum. Mick Fitzgerald won the first two on Afsoun and Tysou but was thwarted for his hat-trick as Richard Johnson brought his seasonal century up on Mighty Man.
On a day when two great supporters of the sport, Robin Cook and Jenny Mould, were remembered in race titles, the action on the track was preceded by the interment of Best Mate's ashes next to the winning post, with the triple Gold Cup winner's close connections, and a handful of fans, present. A lone piper played "Amazing Grace"; the ceremony, on a bright, cold winter morning, was moving, dignified and brief, and quite properly so, given the perspective that the champion's owner, Jim Lewis, lost his wife, Valerie, to cancer on Thursday.Reuse content

The Leveson Report: Data protection proposals will have a significant impact on journalism and the enforcement of data protection law - .PDF file.
There has been much debate since the publication of Lord Leveson's Report on the culture, practices and ethics of the press as to the role of a future regulatory framework governing its activities. In particular, there has been significant comment on Lord Leveson's recommendation that this new framework should have statutory underpinning.
There has been far less discussion on the recommendations Lord Leveson makes to extend data protection regulation. This is despite the significant impact these proposals will have on journalistic activity and on how data protection law is enforced against the press.
In particular, the proposed data protection changes would erode the exemptions in the Data Protection Act 1998, (the DPA) available for investigative newsgathering by journalists, extend the scope of statutory intervention over the press by the Information Commissioner (IC) and lead to changes to the powers, structure, function and duties of the Information Commissioner's office (ICO) relevant to the press…

In September 2011, we alerted you to the decision in Hispanics United of Buffalo, a decision by a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) examining an employer's termination of employees because of posts about their employment on Facebook under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The ALJ's decision was subsequently appealed and on December 14, 2012, the NLRB issued its decision, affirming the ALJ's rulings.
Hispanics United of Buffalo is the third opinion from the NLRB since September 2012 concerning application of traditional labor laws to employer regulation of employee use of social media. In one of the prior opinions examined the extent to which employer policies "chill" employee rights to engage in protected concerted activity under the NLRA. Hispanics United of Buffalo provides guidance on how the NLRB defines protected concerted activity in this social media era. The NLRB expressly stated that it will treat employee activity on social media using the same "analytical framework" that has been in place for nearly thirty years. In other words, the NLRB will not treat social media any differently than other ways in which employees may engage in protected concerted activity.
The employer in Hispanics United of Buffalo, a non-union employer, discharged five employees after the employees made negative comments on Facebook – while off-duty and via their personal computers – about one of their coworkers. The dispute arose after an employee posted a comment on her Facebook page stating that one of her coworkers was complaining that fellow employees were not doing enough and soliciting opinions from her other coworkers. Four coworkers responded, albeit with profanity and sarcasm, defending their job performance and commenting on working conditions. The employer discharged all five employees pursuant to its "zero tolerance" harassment policy.
Guidance for Employers
The Hispanics United of Buffalo decision carries precedential value and is the first to signal that the NLRB will not sway from long standing precedent simply because social media is a new form of communication – a "virtual water cooler." Employers must also keep in mind that the NLRA applies to non-unionized employers and that employees can engage in protected concerted activity during non-business hours and off premises. Finally, an employer's overly broad policy will not trump the protections afforded by the NLRA.
In adopting the recommendations of an ALJ, the NLRB found that by firing the employees, the employer violated the employees' right to engage in protected concerted activity. The NLRB held that the posts were protected by the NLRA because the employees were discussing their job performance. In reaching this conclusion, the NLRB reasoned that when the employee stated her concerns and solicited her coworkers views, which were subsequently provided, the employees were "taking the first step towards taking group action to defend themselves against the [coworker's] accusation [that they were not doing enough]." Whether the original employee intended to voice her complaints was irrelevant, found the NLRB, because the Facebook posts had the clear "mutual aid" objective of preparing coworkers to defend against the complaints. Finally, the NLRB rejected the employer's argument that its "zero tolerance" anti-harassment policy applied, noting that the comments could "not reasonably be construed as a form of harassment or bullying" under the policy, and even if it did, it could not apply the policy "without reference to Board law." Accordingly, by discharging the five employees for their Facebook posts, the employer violated the NLRA.
Employers should take extreme care when taking an adverse action against an employee for his/her usage of social media, especially where that usage relates in any way to work. Experts in Miller Canfield's Employment + Labor Group are available to assist employers respond to these issues as they continue to develop and evolve.

The Semi-finals of the European Championships are over – the final match is set!
FINAL MATCH PREVIEW – Spain v. Italy
These teams were actually together in Group C early in the tournament, known as the "Group of Debt" thanks to Spain's and Ireland's financial woes. They played to a cagey but fascinating 1-1 draw in the opening match of the tournament for both teams. If that match is a template of what the final will be, then be prepared for the likelihood of another penalty shootout. The teams are evenly matched — not in formation, tactics, or player types, but in talent and ability.
On paper, the Spaniards appear stronger, thanks to the presence in their team of so many World Cup and European trophy-winners. Only three players remain from the 2006 World Cup-winning Italian team. The reputations of Spanish players Xavi, Iniesta and others is also extremely high, several of them having been consistently listed among the world's best in recent years; whereas the reputation of the entire Italian football community is threatened by investigations into match-fixing allegations at some Italian clubs.
In reality, the Italians are certainly a match for the Spaniards. They certainly do not fear Spain, and nor should they, based on their current form. Nor will Spain be inclined to abandon its own unique style in the face of the implacable Italians. So how will the final match play out?
I think the onus to win or draw lies with Italy. Perennially talented, they appear especially inspired at this tournament, perhaps thanks to their coach, former club coach Cesare Prandelli. I've imagined locker-room speeches he seems to have given to his charges: You are faster than the other team, use your speed to get to loose balls first; you are tougher than the other team, use that toughness to win the ball away from them; you are more intelligent than the other team, use your wits to outsmart them; and take your chances! They've obviously bought into these philosophies and, thanks to their talent and to superb team selection by Prandelli, have shown their true worth in reaching the final. But have they peaked too soon?
The Spanish seem more laid-back than usual. It appears that the players are simply expecting their style to win the match, but with none of their typical urgency. There is the sense that they are waiting for something to happen, instead of working hard enough to actually do it. It feels like they're on auto-pilot, which is why I believe the initiative rests with Italy. If Italy maintains the momentum from the Germany match, they will win the match. I don't think Spain will win from open play — they are too uncertain and confused right now to do anything but play for a draw. Italy might win from open play but just as likely could win or lose in a penalty shootout.
It's a tough one to call, but here goes: Italy 2-1 Spain
Watch the final at 2:30 p.m. Sunday on ESPN, ESPNDeportes, and ESPN3 (online) to find out who will become the 2012 European Champions.
Now for all you hard-core strategists, let's review the penultimate matches that gave us Sunday's Spain-Italy final.
Spain 0-0 Portugal, Spain wins 4-2 on penalties
Prediction: Spain 3-1 Portugal
It seemed almost impossible to conceive of the possibility that Spain would lose this match; but it almost happened. Playing a disciplined and surprisingly aggressive match against the normally dominant Spaniards, Portugal came close to stealing this match. Not necessarily in open play — they held the ball well and threatened to get around and over Spain's defensive wall, but never really came close to scoring. Still, Portugal took the match to extra time.
Spain's wizened old coach Vicente del Bosque sprang a huge surprise by selecting Alvaro Negredo in the striker role in a 4-5-1 formation. In bypassing both "El Nino" Fernando Torres and Basque star Fernando Llorente, del Bosque made a curious decision that smacked of uncertainty. Why start Negredo for the first time in the tournament, in the semi-finals of all times? Only the coach knows the answer to that question, but regardless, the result was a startling lack of cohesion and rhythm among Spain's attackers. Negredo seemed confused about where and how to play, and this in turn made Spain's midfield tricksters Silva, Xavi and Iniesta hesitate more than usual when in possession. Negredo was relieved of his duties in the 54th minute, coming out for midfielder Cesc Fabregas.
The entry into the match of Fabregas changed Spain's formation to 4-6-0, a shape lacking a true forward. Though it seems counter-intuitive to play with no direct attacking focal point, Spain has proved it can succeed. Fabregas and the other quick, clever midfielders will hover just outside of the opponent's penalty box, penning the other team into a tight defensive shell. They will pass and move into scoring positions constantly, swapping places, drawing defenders out of position, and hoping to find moments when the one who ends up with the ball in front of goal can shoot unopposed. When they dominate possession, this system can be mesmerizing to watch — short passes that make the penalty area look like a pinball machine, but all the while getting Spain closer to scoring.
In this match, that scenario never really quite played out. Towards the end of the match and into extra time, when Portugal clearly relaxed and conceded possession to the Spaniards quite easily, a goal threatened to come. The fact that it did not was perhaps only fair to the Portuguese, who played toe-to-toe with mighty Spain for most of the full 90 minutes.
Conventional wisdom seemed to hold that Portugal's only chance to win would be from lightning counter-attacks. The threat of uber-scorer Cristiano Ronaldo streaking away with the ball towards the Spain goal would have to be enough to keep Spain from committing overwhelming numbers to attack. But the Portuguese held their own against their Iberian neighbors. The match was absorbing, if not quite as exciting as one would have hoped.
The extra-time period was anti-climactic. The march to a penalty shootout seemed inevitable, though Spain tried somewhat half-heartedly to score. In theory, Spain had reason to fear penalties. Their dominance towards the end would tangibly count for nothing in the shootout. The tired Portuguese would no longer have to worry about a single Spanish goal ending their tournament. In the penalty shootout, odds of either team winning are 50-50. The individual brilliance of some players is cancelled out each time a goalkeeper guesses the right way to dive for the save. There is, however, still a degree of strategy involved in planning the shootout — namely the order in which players will take their shots. In this area would Portugal created its own demise.
Players from each team missed the first penalty kicks. The shootout progressed with successful spot kicks until Portugal's defender Bruno Alves, with Portugal trailing 3-2, clanged his shot against the crossbar — a miss. Spain's Fabregas only had to convert his shot for Spain to win the contest (it would be Spain's fourth successful penalty in the first five, whereas the most Portugal could get was 3). Fabregas banged the shot into the goal off of the post, and Spain celebrated. Towards midfield, Cristiano Ronaldo walked around in a daze, shaking his head, no doubt amazed that he had not even taken a penalty kick. How did Portugal's leading scorer, their talisman, their leader and captain NOT get the chance to win the shootout for his team? Maybe Portugal's coach sabotaged his team's golden opportunity. But Spain is a deserving finalist all the same.
Italy 2-1 Germany
Prediction: Germany 2-1 Italy
Much was expected of Germany in this tournament. Many observers, this author included, believed that their time had come. Germany's blend of youth and experience and speed and power would carry them to their first major title since 1996's European Championship. Their run through this tournament, while not rampantly dominant, seemed to support these notions. They had not quite reached their maximum potential while nevertheless easing into the semi-finals. Surely the offensively challenged Italians could not derail the German machine.
Now, in the aftermath of a pulsating 2-1 Italy victory, the flaws in the German master plan are plain. Germany had won 15 competitive matches in a row before this match. That didn't include friendlies, only matches that meant something, such as those they had to play to qualify for this tournament along with the first four they won this month. During that run, there was some experimentation with personnel and formations, but they settled on a 4-5-1 shape early on. The 4-5-1 only uses one actual forward, but wing players on both sides operate in forward positions as well, supplying crosses to the striker in the center. If an opponent tries to stifle the wings, the center area becomes more vulnerable. If the defense clogs the middle and forces the ball out wide, the wingers can approach the goal from the sides. The 4-5-1 works best in counter-attacks, making the system essentially defensive in nature.
The vulnerability of the 4-5-1 lies in the midfield. In a more conventional (and offensively-oriented) 4-4-2 formation, an opponent's midfield four will actually outnumber the 4-5-1's midfield three – remember, two of the five are on the wings. If they get drawn into the middle to help win possession of the ball against a quality opponent, then wing play is diminished. That's what happened against Italy. The Italians were the best opponent the Germans had faced in a long time — perhaps since the World Cup loss to Spain in 2010. Their midfield dominance over the Germans, who had become accustomed to bossing possession over the weaker teams they had vanquished, wrecked the German gameplan. Starved of possession for long periods, the Germans relied too much upon their midfield maestro Mesut Ozil, who was pursued relentlessly by Italian midfielders and defenders.
But the 4-5-1 formation is not the only culprit for the fall of Germany at this tournament.
Coach Joachim Loew's loyalty to and reliance upon the likes of Lukas Podolski and Miroslav Klose, old-timers compared to many of the team's young guns, was misguided at best. Podolski in particular was a misstep — his lack of service from the left wing throughout the tournament was evident, but didn't hurt the team before today, when chances were at a premium. My admiration of this German team was based in part upon the excitement of seeing Schurrle, Gotze, Reus and Kroos play alongside Ozil; but from their first teamsheet, Germany made clear it would be a gradual transition to the new generation, and this probably cost them against a team that was, in retrospect, superior today in selecting their starting 11.
Of course, we can take nothing at all away from the Italians in the post-mortem of the German team's failure to progress. They were quick and unpredictable, as I hoped they would be, and worked hard for one another to win the ball and share it around. Their wise midfield stalwart Pirlo helped dictate play, but the young Italian attackers determined the match. Wild-child Mario Balotelli took the spotlight with two first-half goals. Wild-child #2 Antonio Cassano provided the assists for those goals. Attacking midfielder Montilivo expertly connected Pirlo to Cassano and Balotelli. The entire team executed their own game plan — to stifle German possession and use speed of both thought and action to get around/behind their defense — perfectly. The late-game penalty they conceded on a somewhat harsh handball call was merely coincidental. Italy's win was no fluke, and earns them the possibility of becoming European champions for the first time since 1968.

That slightly awkward moment when you realize the description is longer than the actual work.
Like it quite a lot, sir. Lovely word choice, and it perfectly describes summer. (I'm convinced I'm part bear, with how much I've been sleeping)
In a poem, the description is the most important part! You did fine. Of course, I am not much of a poet. :)
Very apt description of NYC in August, and a charming poem. I had to look up 'incalescence' (to confirm what I thought it meant, given the context); I LOVE when someone throws a new $10 word at me and I get to expand my lexicon, LOL
Hi, Jett. When I read your comment (which made me grin from ear to ear), I couldn't resist the urge to come back and 're-comment'. I, too, love our mutual friends, Mr. T. and Mr. D. They've been faithful companions of mine, as well. Thanks so much for sharing your great poems and stories!

Re: Men vs. Women post of a few minutes ago.
This was generating a huge response, which seems to indicate that it was an important topic.
Why isn't the reasoning for deletions made clear so that we know the ground rules better and can try and persuade the moderators when they seem to error?

You flatter yourself. I have no beef with you. In fact, I ignore you for the most part.
There've been quite a few personal barbs thrown in that thread, but I think if you look through it, you'll find that almost every barb thrown by a male is in response to a similar comment made by a woman. I cannot count on one hand how many times some female poster entered the thread and, apparently without reading the article, decided that "all you men" were "whining". I called 2 of them on it, they did not reply.
Yeah, there is a bit more treachery there than need be, but I suspect that more than a handful of the male posters have been raked over the coals in divorce court. I've seen it happen to some close friends which is why I choose to remain single. YMMV, of course.
So your the one!
DU -- I forget what the initials stand for -- is the commie lib conterpart to FR.
DU is where anyone who ever questions any policy on Free Republic is from.
LOL....exactly why I've always said that "I LOVE this man. If we both weren't already married, I'd propose!"
He has a lot of qualities I find attractive in my own husband. I would like to add that STRENGTH, honesty and integrity are qualities they both share. IMO those qualities are very important.
However, I doubt the president has ever had to pound someone when doubling as security as well as being the ambulance driver at a concert, or had to pound someone in his capacity as bouncer, but the way GW conducted the pounding of the Taliban makes it seem they have THAT trait in common as well.
REAL men...gotta love 'em!
Not sure. But there's a new one coming from Counting Crows. I love their new single.
good to see you back. so our carfully crafted and spot-on arguments didn't sway you, huh???
You flatter yourself. I have no beef with you. In fact, I ignore you for the most part.
Rolling on the floor in hysterical laughter.
Bob you ignor HLL like the boy did in 5th grade who sat behind me.
How very true.
I've known you here for quite a while and I've never locked horns with you before. Your threads before today always seemed reasonable to me and I actually enjoy reading them. Evidently you have a hair across your you-know-what with this issue though! Though I admit, I also have a hair across my you-know-what with this issue because I have seen so many male friends and family members devastated by vindictive women. One close friend still cannot see his kids unsupervised by social workers (who treat him like a criminal), all this because his wife claims he slammed the door shut on her foot during an argument and swore at her in front of the kids.
I'm not saying that all the men are blameless in divorce. But to have a man denied access to his children because a door got slammed on his wife's foot? (He admits to slamming the door and swearing in anger but says she was ten feet away from the door when he slammed it.) This is just not right. For what it's worth, the argument that precipitated the slamming of the door was that the wife (after kicking him out of the house) refused to let him come into the house to pick some personal items up. Had she simply gotten him the stuff he wanted (which she had no use for), he would have left quietly. The wife was just looking to provoke a confrontation so she would have a reason to take out a restraining order against him and thus gain leverage in court. This happens all the time.
BTW, I know there are two sides to every story. But I know this side is true because I was the one who drove him to the house to get his stuff. I never saw him enter the house at anytime. He simply slammed the door, yelled a little, and got back in the car.
Thanks for the support. Happy to be part of the group.
Already did, thank you. Smartest thing I ever did.
.....and I thank God everyday for it
OOOOOOooohh...k! I'm not usually FReepeing on Saturday evening, but Hubby's tired from mowing grass all day and vegging in front of the TV set, and the time just kinda got away from me. Over a hundred replies already....hmmmm....
ROTFL. I was just thinking the exact same thing when I read your reply.
In other news, maybe this has something to do with it.
You need to sue your divorce lawyer for malpractice. I live in Ohio too, and I can't figure out how you came out on the losing end so badly.
Hey.. Look, I have this big pot hole out in front of the house..
LOL, no, I had this "need."
Okay. That one wins. You can be misandryous.
Yeah, but that's illegal most places.

Love them all! I would wait till she was born and see which fits her best! I personally love Nora!

I love Tessa- it is simple, sweet, but still sophisticated. I love the combo of Tessa Rose
