The Astute Whitey Doc Explores How the Boston Gangster Was Caught
Mugshot of James "Whitey" Bulger.
To almost anyone who lived in Boston in the '80s and '90s, and even to many who didn't, James J. "Whitey" Bulger was a peculiarly powerful folk villain, a truly bad guy who, with the help of his shady organized-crime cohorts, had murdered people, buried body after body, and then, in 1994, simply vanished.
We never completely forgot about him — he was too genuinely bad to forget. And then, in a plot you couldn't put into a USA Network show for fear people would howl at it, Whitey Bulger resurfaced in 2011 in Santa Monica, where he had been quietly hiding out with his longtime girlfriend.
Joe Berlinger's astute documentary tells what happened after that: Hoping to save their own skins, a number of Whitey's old associates stepped forward to squawk, among them Kevin Weeks, a beefy ex-bouncer whose grand jury testimony helped prosecutors put Bulger away for 19 murders and numerous instances of racketeering. Weeks, as interviewed here, is a jovially threatening presence, a regular guy with a supremely dark side: He describes the South Boston dive where he got his start in organized crime as "a neighborhood bah, kind of a rough bah," but the accent isn't so funny once he starts revealing grisly details of the horrific deeds he helped Bulger commit, crimes that, for years, Bulger got away with.

Berlinger covers lots of territory, including heartrending accounts from the family members of some of Bulger's victims. The whole exercise is fascinating, if vaguely unsatisfying: Bulger himself doesn't appear, of course; at age 84, he's currently serving two consecutive life terms, plus five years. Somehow, it just doesn't seem long enough.

Churchills Finest Hour 1940-1945 Goes on the Road
"Churchill´s Finest Hour 1940-1945" now moves on the Bristol Central Library after a successful run.
From July 11th - August 31th it will be put on show at Portsmouth Central Library at Guildhall Square.
Churchill had a long time "relationship" with Portsmouth The most important British Navel base in England. He visited the city many times during the Second World War.
A street had been named after him in Portsmouth; Winston Churchill Avenue.
"It is with great joy that Portsmouth Central Library had given me time to show the exhibition. Because of lack of space the exhibition will be smaller but it will not effect what people can see. It were planned from the beginning that it could be scaled up and down so it could fit in nearly everywere", says exhabit creator Niels Bjerre.
After Portsmouth the exhibition will go on to Bletchley Park coincide with the 70th Anniversary of Churchill´s first "Most Secret" visit to "Station X" in the beginning of September 1941.
"I'm also very pleased that I has been invited by The Churchill Center for an exchusive exhibit at the 28th International Churchill Conference in London at The Marriott Hotel. It is a fantastic climax to end the first part of my trip at this conference," ends Bjerre.
CB Talks to Historian Andrew Roberts, Author of "The Storm of War"
July 2011
Churchill Centre Executive Director Lee Pollock recently spoke with prominent
British historian Dr. Andrew Roberts
whose new history of World War II
The Storm of War
has just been released in the United States. Andrew is well known to
Chartwell Bulletin
readers for his books and articles on Sir Winston and his contemporaries, his longtime support of The Churchill Centre and his frequent participation in TCC's International Conferences. Among his previous works are acclaimed biographies of Lord Halifax (1991) and Lord Salisbury (1999),
Hitler and Churchill: Secrets of Leadership
A History of the English Speaking Peoples since 1900
(2006) and
Masters and Commanders: How Roosevelt, Churchill, Marshall and Alanbrooke Won the War in the West
In addition to his historical writing, Dr. Roberts is a frequent contributor to
The Wall Street Journal
, Commentary and other newspapers and magazines as well as a television commentator for NBC.
In this CB interview, Andrew talks about his latest books, his recent move to New York and current writing on Churchill and the Second World War.
Lee Pollock:
Andrew, some of our readers are not completely familiar with your background. Could you tell us a little about where you grew up, your education and how you developed an interest in history and in Winston Churchill. Were there any Churchillians in your family who influenced you along the way? And do you recall when you first recognized Churchill's unique role in 20th century history and in the Second World War?
Andrew Roberts:
I grew up in Surrey, in Southern England and was educated at Cambridge University, from where I took a First class honours degree in History, was an honorary senior scholar and am a Doctor of Philosophy. My father read history at Oxford and it was he and my prep school history master, Christopher Perry, who first sparked a love of history in me. They too inculcated in me the central role that Sir Winston Churchill played in the Allied victory in the Second World War, and what a very great human being he was.

90th Anniversary Talk on Jennie, Lady Randolph Churchill
By Celia Lee
29 June 2011, Westerham Hall, Westerham, Kent
I have divided the talk into 4 parts:
The first part is about who Jennie really was; the three following parts concentrate on her voluntary work;
Fund raising for the women of India;
Fund raising and involvement with the hospital ship Maine during the Boer War;
And her work during the First World War.
Who, was Jennie, Lady Randolph Churchill?
Her parents Leonard and Clarissa Jerome were American. (1)&(2) Clarissa's maiden name was Hall, and they married in 1849. Both were from well to do farming backgrounds. Clarissa bore 4 daughters: (3) Clarita (known as Clara), who was born in April 1851; Jeanette (known as Jennie), born on 9th January 1854; Camille in November 1855, but died of a fever in 1863; and Leonie in 1859.
During the financial panic of 1857, Leonard Jerome became a millionaire, buying and selling shares on the New York stock market. He built a huge mansion, (4) on Madison Square, which was one of the first private palaces in New York. In 1860, Jennie was 6 years old, when the Jeromes went to live in this huge house, where she was raised in fabulous wealth and luxury. The ballroom could accommodate 300 people and the adjacent theatre could seat 600. Jennie and her sisters had a nanny and a governess, and were educated privately, with emphasis on the genteel arts — music, piano, drawing, and French and German. Their father owned racehorses, and Jennie and her sisters could ride like the wind. He was now reputed to be worth $10 million, about $500 million in today's value.
For an article on Jennie's birthplace in Brooklyn from Finest Hour 129, follow this link.
But Leonard had a passion for young opera singers and Mrs Jerome tired of her husband's eccentric life style and his mistresses. In 1867, when Jennie was aged 13, the Jeromes separated, and Mrs Jerome took her three daughters (5) and went to live in Paris in further luxury, where they mingled with the court of Napoleon III and the Empress Eugenie.
In 1873, Jennie was 19 years old. (6) Mrs Jerome took a house the Villa Rosetta, for the season on the Isle of Wight. She received an invitation to a ball during
"Cowes Week",
aboard the royal yacht, HMS Ariadne. It was held in the presence of the visiting, Russian, Imperial family, who were staying with
Queen Victoria at Osborne House
. The Prince of Wales attended, (7) and when Jennie entered the ballroom, attired in a white ball gown and diamonds, she saw
Lord Randolph Churchill
, (8) the second son of the
7th Duke and Duchess of Marlborough
, standing, talking to the Prince. (9)
Their eyes met across the ballroom floor and it was love at first sight. They were married on 15th April 1874, in the chapel of the British Embassy in Paris.
The young couple arrived from honeymoon to live for a brief period at
Blenheim Palace
, until Randolph's father bought them a house in fashionable Mayfair, London. Jennie was now referred to as Lady Randolph Churchill.
The world that the 20-year-old entered in Victorian England, was one where aristocratic women were still a long way from liberation. Women wore full-length dresses or skirts, and a hat and gloves, and she was not allowed to go out in public without a chaperone.

New York Times Sunday Book Review: How Hitler Could Have Won
By TIMOTHY SNYDER
THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 17, 2011 - How did the Wehrmacht, the best fighting force, lose World War II? The reader seeking the answer to this question, posed by Andrew Roberts in his splendid history, will be treated to a brilliantly clear and accessible account of the war in all of its theaters: Asian, African and European. Roberts's descriptions of soldiers and officers are masterly and humane, and his battlefield set pieces are as gripping as any I have ever read. He has visited many of the battlefields, and has an unusually good eye for detail as well as a painterly skill at physical description. (His nearly perfect sense of terrain and geography is marred only by his regrettable conflation of Russia with the Soviet Union, which leads to confusion about battlefie
ld locations, German war aims and Soviet casualties.) He is just as much at home at sea as on land; from Midway to El Alamein his prose is unerringly precise and stirringly vivid. It is hard to imagine a better-told military history of World War II.
The title of the book, "The Storm of War," conceals an answer to Roberts's central question about the reasons for the German defeat. The notion of war as a storm summons up the Nazi idea of a blitzkrieg, a lightning victory that would somehow resolve all of the political and economic problems of the German state. Yet the reference in the title is not German but British, not to Hitler but rather to Churchill, who told the House of Commons on June 4, 1940, that he had every confidence Britain could "ride out the storm of war." Lightning signals not the end but the beginning of a storm; he who escapes the flash can survive, endure, get the wind at his back and in his sails, and triumph. The Wehrmacht lost the war because the conflict was long, and it was long in part because Churchill refused to abandon the fight, but chiefly because Germany's main war aims were impossible to attain.

Bucking Up the British in the Midst of the Fight
By A. O. SCOTT
THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 19, 2011 - Most of what happens in "Went the Day Well?" — an undeservedly forgotten British film showing at Film Forum starting on Friday — is a flashback. In the first scene, a friendly chap in a village churchyard addresses the camera, which is to say the audience, and supposes we want to hear about the big battle that happened in the town a few years before.
That skirmish, involving local residents, members of the British Home Guard and a platoon of Nazis masquerading as Englishmen, was a milestone in the defeat of Germany. Now, in peacetime, surveying the graves of those who fought and died, we can reflect on what happened in an attitude of calm amazement.
Except that the film, directed by the peripatetic Brazilian-born cineaste Alberto Cavalcanti and produced by Ealing Studios, was made in 1942, when victory over Germany was anything but certain. For original audiences, in other words, that excursion to the churchyard was a message from the future, an acknowledgement of sacrifices already made and still to come, and also a genial, chin-up morale booster.
"Went the Day Well?," based on a story by Graham Greene, is part of a rich repository of films, made in Britain and in Hollywood, intended to buck up the spirits of the English-speaking world in the fight against Hitler. "Mrs. Miniver," a huge, Oscar-sweeping hit in the United States, remains the best-known tribute to the plucky indomitability of ordinary Britons.

President of the George C. Marshall Foundation Speaks to the Chicagoland Chapter
By Phil and Sue Larson
On June 8, 46 intrepid Churchillians met at Maggiano's Oak Brook, IL for a chapter meeting. The outside temperature was 95 degrees and the venue was without air conditioning in the assigned room. With the fortitude of true Churchillians, we charged forward. Brian Shaw, President of the George C. Marshall Foundation in Lexington, VA spoke to the group on the theme "With Affection and Admiration: The Letters of George C. Marshall and Winston Churchill".
Brian's powerpoint presentation was informative and thought provoking. It elicited some excellent questions from the gathering. Also in attendance were Lee Pollack (Executive Director TCC-US), Dan Myers (COO TCC), Richard Marsh (Chapter Head Ann Arbor, MI) and guest Eugene Beiriger, PHD (Associate Professor DePaul University of Chicago).
Following the discussion, the group adjourned to a fully air conditioned room for an Italian feast. The group will meet again for the WSC Birthday celebration Dec 9 at the Chicago Union League Club with Dr. John Maurer (Chair, Strategy and Policy Deptartment, Naval War College, Newport, RI) as featured speaker.

Britain has had its coldest ever Easter day it has been confirmed, smashing the previous record from 1986.
That year, Easter Monday saw temperatures as low as -9.8C.
On Easter Sunday 2013, however, the lowest temperature recorded was -12.5C in Braemar, in the Scottish Highlands.
This is way below the average temperature for this time of year, which is between 10C and 13C.
Easter Monday is expected to remain very cold, with the cold spell lingering for another fortnight.
Part of the reason for the new record is that it is an unusually early Easter. Only around a fifth of Easters - a movable feast- fall in March.
The record comes after the entire month of March was provisionally declared the UK's coldest since 1962.
The Met Office said that from 1 March to 26 March the UK mean temperature was 2.5C - three degrees below the long-term average.

The player matches three or more numbers to reach the next number on the grid. That is, three '1's make a '2' and so on. The goal of the game is to reach a total sum of '21' whilst filling up the screen. The game has challenging gameplay and is addictive for all puzzle enthusiasts.
The idea itself and the gameplay are innovative. This kind of a puzzling challenge is new to users and yet feels natural and easy once the player gets a hang of it. The feeling of finally winning the game is very satisfying and just the gameplay in general keeps the user coming back for more. However, Numbers does suffer from some development issues.
The biggest problem with the game is that the controls feel unfinished and the game itself does too. The menus and layouts are laggy and the art style and music are mediocre.

Havana Jazz Festival and Accommodations
My partner and I are going to Cuba in December 2004 for the Jazz Festival. We're hoping to spend a few days at a modest aparthotel in Santa Maria del Mar to get warmed up and then go to Havana for the week of the festival. We'd like to stay at a casa but want to do some of our own cooking there. We also want a private bathroom in a safe area. We hear that Vedado (near la rampa) is the best area for casas. Anyone have any experience? advice? Thanks

Generally believed to be an editorial addition, the superscription nevertheless identifies the true source of the prophecy. It comes from Yahweh, the Lord, and is addressed to the Jewish community. The Lord's messenger is the instrument through whom the message comes. Malachi probably is borrowed from 3:1 where the meaning is simply "my messenger" or "my angel."

The Blue Heron -Version 1
Long, long ago in a faraway land lived a blue heron.
One day he was hungry.
He began to look for some fish to eat.
He began to look for fish in the river.
He saw a fish.
He looked at the fish.
He said, "A small fish like that is not good enough for a heron like me!"
Next, he saw another fish.
He cried, "I don't even want to open my big beak for a small fish like that!"
Soon he saw a bigger fish.
He still wanted something bigger and better.
He let the third fish swim away too.
He waited and waited for a bigger fish to swim by.
He did not see another fish.
He waited the whole afternoon for a bigger fish!
He finally saw a tiny snail.
By this time he was very hungry.
He was now quite glad to eat the tiny snail!
The lesson: Never be too fussy or you may end up getting very little or nothing at all
The Blue Heron -Version 2
One day he was extremely hungry.
He decided that he wanted a huge fish to eat.
He began searching in the river for a big fish.
Soon he saw a fairly large fish.
He declared, "That fish might be fine for a kingfisher, but it is simply not fit for a heron like me!"
A little while later he spied another fish.
He cried, "I can't even be bothered to open my beautiful beak for anything that teensy!"
Soon he noticed another fish that was even bigger than the other two.
He was still not satisfied and he let the third fish escape.
He waited patiently for a larger fish.
He waited the whole afternoon, but to avoid the blazing sun, the fish had disappeared into the cool depths.
He finally found a teeny snail.
By this time he was starving!
Feeling quite foolish he greedily devoured the very tiny snail.
The lesson: Never be too fussy or you may end up getting very little or nothing at all.
The Blue Heron -Version 3
Many centuries ago, in a distant land, there lived a blue heron.
One day when he felt famished he decided to journey to a nearby river in search of a large, succulent fish.
When he arrived at the meandering river he immediately noticed a fish.
He declared, "A handsome heron like me should not have to eat an insignificant little fish like that!"
A few minutes later he spied another fish.
He sneered, "I can't even be bothered wasting my time opening my beak for another undersized fish!"
Soon he spotted another fish that was larger than the other two.
He was still not satisfied with this ordinary fish and he let the third fish escape.
He waited the whole afternoon, but to avoid the blazing sun, all the fish had vanished into the cool depths of the river.
After much searching he finally found a tiny snail.
By this time he was so hungry and weak he almost collapsed in the mud.
Feeling quite foolish he quickly devoured the teeny weensy snail.
lives with his aunt and cousin in the Kingdom of Kempenfelt. While his lazy
cousin spends the whole day playing and having fun, Haidan labors over endless
chores. Every day Haidan's aunt orders him down to the lake to catch fish for
supper. His aunt explodes with anger when she discovers that Haidan, feeling
sorry for the fish, often releases his catch back into the lake.
On one particular day, Haidan's aunt warns him, in no uncertain terms, that he
better not come home from fishing without any fish! Haidan gets the surprise of
his life when he catches a huge and striking fish that begins to talk to him.
The fish informs Haidan that she can grant him three wishes on one condition. He
must bring the Ribbon of Life back to the lake. Haidan is puzzled as he has no
idea what the fish is talking about. Meanwhile, Haidan's lazy cousin overhears
the fish's conversation. His cousin immediately orders Haidan to make wishes
that will benefit him and his mother. Haidan points out that he can't make any
wishes as he knows nothing about the Ribbon of Life. Haidan's cousin tells him
to go ask King William the Wise. Haidan's decision to find out from the King of
Kempenfelt about the Ribbon of Life, will bring astonishing changes in his

Welfare Benefits and Lone Parents' Employment in Great Britain
The analysis pools ten years of General Household Surveys to identify the effects of Britain's welfare benefit system on a lone mother's probability of employment. It confirms the prediction that, because of the implicit 100 percent tax rate in the system, higher nonlabor income (other than welfare benefits) increases the probability while a higher benefit guarantee reduces it. The analysis also confirms that among women who could never be eligible for benefits, higher nonlabor income reduces the probability of employment and the guarantee has no effect.

Bugatti Veyron Super Sport picking up a friend at the airport
Follow me on Facebook and Instagram! Facebook.com/JTPhotos / Instagram @speedracer38 Part 1 - Going to the airport in a Bugatti Veyron Super Sport Pur Blanc to pickup the owner of the car who has yet to see it in person. This was an unreal experience and I'm extremely happy for my friend for acquiring another gem in his collection. This time he really outdid himself and picked up a Veyron Super Sport which is a 1 off special edition called the Pur Blanc which stands for "pure white" which is on par with the rest of his collection of all white cars (except the cobalt blue Porsche!). The shock on everyones face was really funny watching as we rolled through the arrival terminal at LAX in 2 matte white supercars. With the wing up on the Veyron I don't think anyone even paid attention to the Panamera haha! There will be a part 2 video coming soon of our drive home which I know everyone will thoroughly enjoy so make sure you subscribe. I put a little teaser at the end ;) Please leave a comment and subscribe. Enjoy!
Riding in the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport "Pur Blanc"
Follow me on Facebook and Instagram! Facebook.com/JTPhotos / Instagram @speedracer38 Riding in the worlds fastest car is an absolutely epic experience, having a bunch of exotic cars around to toy with makes it even more entertaining! The Super Sport is actually quite a different feel then the normal Veyron. The suspension is a bit more stiff and the acceleration is still smooth but feels more powerful. When being pushed to the limit the car feels pretty brutal as you can see I was fighting to keep the camera steady a few times. The Ferrari F50 met up with us before we met with the group of other exotic cars and hearing the F50 Exhaust through the city was a dream come true. I will be uploading another video soon of the F50 which won't disappoint.
LaFerrari found in a barn
Follow me on Facebook and Instagram! Facebook.com/JTPhotos / Instagram @speedracer38 Today I managed to find the Ferrari LaFerrari in northern California tucked away in a random barn! There have been a lot of rumors about the car being shown in Pebble Beach during car week and with a little bit of luck my friends and I managed to find it and spend almost an hour taking pictures and video of the car. Keep an eye on BrianZuk's channel for a great video of the car as well.
Valet destroys clutch on Lamborghini
Follow me on Facebook and Instagram! Facebook.com/JTPhotos / Instagram @speedracer38 One of the reasons why using valet scares me. This is one of the best places in Beverly Hills that valets the most expensive cars in the world. It seemed to be this guys first day because I had to stop him before he kept backing up and show him where the button is to raise the nose on the LP560 to avoid scraping the front bumper. After watching him struggle backing the car up the small incline in the driveway I started to record again when I saw smoke pouring out of the engine bay knowing he just completely burnt out the clutch. Even with an e-gear this is possible because he was never fully engaging the clutch. If you think this is your Lamborghini please let me know because I took a picture of the cars VIN just in case.

# Gold miners # Barrick Gold # PricewaterhouseCoopers
Majority among gold miners see the precious metal to hit $2000 at some where next year,according to a PricewaterhouseCoopers survey.
LONDON(BullionStreet): Majority among gold miners see the precious metal to hit $2000 at some where next year,according to a PricewaterhouseCoopers survey.
The survey said miners are raising dividends and looking for takeover deals with expectations the price of gold will head even higher next year.
John Gravelle, the Canadian mining leader at PwC, says the shares of gold companies haven't increased as much as the price of gold, so they're facing increased competition for investors' dollars.
The gold miners are seeing dividends as a way to differentiate their stocks from other investments such as exchange-traded funds linked directly to the price of gold, Gravelle said.
"They're very aware that there are a number of options of what we can call paper gold that investors can invest in rather than buying shares of mining companies," Gravelle said of the gold miners.
"Some are getting creative and looking at linking their dividend to increases in the gold price, so therefore you are getting a bit of a very direct return based on increases in the gold price." The PwC survey found that 27 per cent of gold miners paid dividends in 2011, up from only nine per cent in 2010.
Barrick Gold Corp. (TSX:ABX) raised its quarterly dividend by 25 per cent to 15 cents U.S. per share earlier this year, up from 12 cents. The move followed by an announcement by Newmont Mining Corp. that it would increase its dividend by 17 per cent to 35 cents per share.
Goldcorp Inc. (TSX:G) boosted its monthly dividend earlier this month by 32 per cent to 4.5 cents from 3.4 cents thanks to its strong cash flow.
Gold has been trading for around US$1,600 per ounce in recent days after going as high as US$1,900 in September. The PwC survey found 80 per cent of gold miners expected the price to go higher in 2012 and a majority saw a peak at US$2,000 per ounce.
The same survey a year ago found 73 per cent of the miners predicted an increase in the price of gold with 24 per cent believing it would remain about the same. Forty per cent in 2010 believed gold would peak at around $1,500.
The 2011 survey found 29 per cent of the miners expect to spend cash on acquisitions in 2012, up from 19 per cent in 2011. "I think companies will be looking for acquisitions that are strategic and that are close to where they are," Gravelle said.
He pointed to Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd.'s (TSX:AEM) deal for Grayd Resource Corp. (TSXV:GYD) as an example of the types of deals companies will be looking for.That acquisition beefed up Agnico-Eagle's existing operations in Mexico, a country in which it already has operations.
Gravelle said companies expanding geographically will need to do so carefully as governments are expected to be eyeing the price of gold too. "Everybody is expecting governments to try to get more out of it and it is important for the mining industry to really step up its game in talking with all its stakeholders," he said.

Wiki at War
Conflict in a Socially Networked World
By (author) James Jay Carafano
Format: Hardback
Checking availability...
Wiki at War by James Jay Carafano
Book DescriptionIn 2011, amid the popular uprising against Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak, the government sought in vain to shut down the Internet-based social networks of its people. WikiLeaks editor-in-chief Julian Assange has been branded "public enemy number one" by some in the United States for posting material on the World Wide Web that concerns airstrikes in Iraq, US diplomatic communications, and other sensitive matters. In "Wiki at War," James Jay Carafano explains why these and other Internet-born initiatives matter and how they are likely to affect the future face of war, diplomacy, and domestic politics. "The war for winning dominance over social networks and using that dominance to advantage is already underway," Carafano writes in this extremely timely analysis of the techno-future of information and the impact of social networking via the Internet. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of history and defense strategy, Carafano creates a cogent analysis of what is truly new about the "new media," and what is simply a recasting of human warfare in contemporary forms. "Wiki at War" is written in a lively, accessible style that will make this technological development comprehensible and engaging for general readers without sacrificing the book's usefulness to specialists. Outlining the conditions under which a difference in degree becomes a difference in kind, detailing how ancient wisdom can still apply to national security decisions, and examining the conditions under which new expertise is required to wage effective diplomacy or successful military strategy, Carafano casts in stark relief the issues that face political, military, and social leaders in trying to manage and control information, in both the international and domestic arenas. "Wiki at War" affords stimulating thought about and definitive discussion of this vital emerging topic.

Travel Blogs from Aberlour
Onto Speyside and achieving a goal!
Up nice and early and down to breakfast. The B&B did a great brekkie that was included in the price. A big bowl of freshly made fruit salad, yogurt and cereal selections followed by a choice of cooked dishes.
We hit the road and it was easy for about half the route then we got into the little one laners for a while. We took a wee …
WHISKY and then a picnic
After breakfast we headed next door to the Aberlour Distillery where Dave had booked us in for the morning tour of one and a half hours of whisky viewing, information and tasting. It is a small distillery by Scottish standards but produces some fine stuff, the best being A'bunadh ("of the origins" or "the original"). A little history, a view around …
Whisky And Fairytales
... on to auction. It is also the highest distillery in Scotland, and because the temperatures remain cool, or cold, it helps create the delicate whisky they have made famous. The tour was very informative, and I feel I have some basic knowledge with which to use if I ever buy or order whisky. The end of the tour capped off with a taste, with a small dark chocolate to accompany it. And of course the opportunity to buy some of our own whisky ...
Grantown-on-Spey Caravan Site
After leaving our friends in Gardenstown we travelled a short distance south to this lovely site nestled on the edge of the Cairngorms National Park. Lovely clean site with plenty of walks that unfortunately we didn't have time to explore. The town is just a short walk away. The facilities were modern and clean.

The Department of Energy was hacked. Again. It is the second time this year that the DOE was the victim of a breach. The breach took place in, and it is believed that the personally identifiable information (PII) of 14,000 present and former employees was potentially compromised.
Defense contractor Northrop Grumman recently announced that it, too, suffered a similar breach.
In both cases, because of the type of information affected, the hackers may have been doing little more than data mining for valuable-on-the-black-market PII. Or it could be the hackers were looking for more, like the ability to access data involving the critical infrastructure or national security stored on the organizations' networks. We don't know, and we won't know, as Anthony DiBello, strategic partnerships manager, Guidance Software, pointed out to Sue Marquette Poremba in an email, without a complete forensic analysis of the compromised systems. He went on to say:
When incidents like this happen, people are very eager to get their systems and machines back online and working. This may cause serious loss to the forensic artifacts and the evidence to determine exactly what happened.
After a breach, DiBello added, an organization should take the time to learn what happened, and leverage the lessons learned to improve their systems. Otherwise, they may leave themselves vulnerable to another, similar attack. So DiBello provided the following tips on how to best manage breaches like this.

Roundtable: Decisions At SDPD, Death In Assisted Living, Killer Whales At Sea World
Friday, March 14, 2014
Aired 3/14/14 on KPBS Midday Edition.
Mark Sauer
Liam Dillon, Voice of San Diego
Jeff McDonald, U-T San Diego
Lisa Halverstadt, Voice of San Diego
Zimmerman, SDPD Face Challenges
Be careful what you wish for.
For Shelley Zimmerman, becoming the new chief of the San Diego Police Department is a promotion that comes with some big strings (and major problems) attached.
One of the choices facing Zimmerman and her department is whether to return its focus to community policing or concentrate on rapid response to crime.
The department has its problems. Chronic underfunding and an aging force (50 percent will be eligible for retirement in the next four years) seem less significant at the moment than the news emerging about SDPD's culture.
More than 14 officers have been accused (and some convicted) of serious misconduct since 2010. It was also reported that the SDPD had veered away from its policy of tracking incidents of racial profiling. Its much-praised neighborhood policing policy has also taken a back seat in favor of rapid response to crime.
The department's credibility took another hit when an investigator for the District Attorney's office said in a deposition that the department stonewalled her on information on a sexual battery case involving a San Diego police officer.
Zimmerman said on KPBS that she is in favor of an outside audit of department policies and procedures, but is not in favor of oversight by an independent agency.
Reporting on Assisted Living Deaths Prompts County Reforms
Last fall, U-T San Diego and the CHCF Center for Health Reporting at USC's Annenberg School looked into hundreds of incidents of injury and even death among seniors in assisted living facilities in San Diego County.
They found that 27 San Diego County seniors have died since 2008 from injuries and neglect. Many of these deaths were not investigated and the facilities were not punished by the state agency assigned to protect seniors.
The problem has arisen because more and more seniors are living longer and therefore growing sicker. And they are increasingly choosing to live in homelike, affordable assisted living facilities instead of expensive, traditional nursing homes.
The state agency charged with oversight of assisted living facilities is both underfunded and underpowered. The top fine for injury or neglect is $150.
Real reform, and the funds to make it happen, must come from the state. Meanwhile, San Diego County has mobilized its resources to increase oversight staff and work with the Better Business Bureau to rate assisted living homes. The District Attorney has begun a pilot project to prosecute neglect and abuse cases unpunished by the state.
Seaworld Has A Whale Of A Problem
Sea World San Diego is one of the world's major theme parks, bringing in more than 4 million visitors a year. It is a major economic engine for San Diego.
It sits on 190 acres of city property, which it rents for about $14 million a year, a figure based on the park's revenue. Unusually, its lease with the city requires it to pay property taxes, including $5.2 million this year. It employs 2,500 to 4,500 San Diegans annually, the number depending on the season.
The operative figure for this discussion, however, is 10, the number of killer whales at Sea World. Killer whales are the subject of the documentary "Blackfish," which purports to show how keeping the whales in captivity poses dangers to trainers and even other whales. It has caused Sea World to engage in major damage control and fight a lawsuit, and it has spawned a "Blackfish Bill" in the California Legislature that would bar both shows featuring killer whales and captive breeding programs.

When I heard that KPBS Roundtable would give some attention to the orca story, I was hopeful that the public would be informed of the ethical issues involved. As the documentary "Blackfish" shows, the orcas at Sea World are suffering. These magnificent, highly intelligent, social beings who are biologically designed to live wild in the open ocean, where they form close bonds with each other, are violently removed from their families and held prisoner in small tanks at Sea World. Even the orcas who have this misfortune to be born into captivity, languish behind glass, day, after day, after day. They go psychotic. However, this issue was NEVER addressed on Roundtable. It was all about taxes and San Diego's financial stake in Sea World's success! Shame on Lisa Halverstadt and Mark Sauer for never even bringing up the core issue that is the root of the controversy. Are we so greedy that we push aside all moral considerations when money is concerned?

Hi Kitty,
Charlie's Green House has regulators that you can put on your spigot, if
that is required by your system. I think you are wise to crawl before you
walk and walk before you run.
The stuff to outfit your landscape with drip irrigation is somewhat
expensive, but for the most part it is a one time expense; and as you change
your plan, what you already have can be re-tailored to your new plan. As
you might have guessed, I'm a big believer in drip irrigation. Partly
because here your first 5000 gallons per month are about 30.00 and 2.00 per
thousand after that. Rich in Z-5

To all the messages on the challenges of having Mother (or in-law) visiting
for Christmas.
What a gentle feeling that came over me this morning, as I remembered the
Christmas of 1992. As some of you may know or recall, my mother Pauline
Banyai had suffered many years with congestive heart failure and passed away
Dec. 18 that year, with the funeral just 3 days before Christmas 1992.
In 1990 we almost lost her at age 70 but modern medical technology in the
form of some heart work and medication gave her two more years. Knowing that
her life was nearing the end she spent as much time as possible with friends
and family, including hosta people. Those two convention years, Minneapolis
and Columbus, were extra special, as some of you may recall.
In November 1992 she had two passions: get the newest hosta seed crosses
together and think about surviving the winter. The seeds got done but the
winter proved too long.
In early December 1992 I mentioned that we might like to come visit her for
Christmas, as a way of cheering her up. But she asked if she could come our
way instead, which we agreed to. The wonder of her fading stamina and yet
great spirit still inspires us. Visiting local Delaware hosta friends, seeing
her grandsons perform Christmas plays and musicals, cooking up Christmas
cookies for her grandsons, you knew she was doing what she wanted to do, even
under great pain. We spent her last evening going out to a special birthday
dinner with our middle son Aaron, then watched 3 hours of video tape of hosta
gardens, with her mind and comments sharp as ever. She went to sleep and
never woke up.
This morning my wife Lois mentioned that the 1992 Christmas may have been
very hard on me but the family was really close together, at her Madison
Heights home. I recalled the unselfish love of folks like Dan Attkisson, our
neighbor, who agreed to help me videotape the garden the next day in the dead
of winter to capture all the latest garden markers she had put in, in case
they got moved in spring cleanup. What a guy -- Thanks a milllion again Dan.
Others too numerous to mention made very generous gestures that cannot be
thanked enough.
Now the real reason for sending this message: my mother-in-law ( 67 years old
) just spent 4 days with us. She is not the "messy housewife/gardener" that
my mother and wife subscribe to, but rather one who sees all the dirt, dust
and clutter inside. This is the first visit we have had in 25 years of
marriage that there were no negative comments. Such as change spells no good
for the future - something is up!!! But she is welcome back anytime, no
matter what.
So, take it all in stride and enjoy people as they are, not as you may want
them to be. Let's all give the other guy a little slack.
PS: My mother-in-law took the best photo of my mother's front garden on the
July 1993 Metro Detroit garden walk that featured her garden in memorial. The
photo hangs in our living room!
Season's Greetings to all!

The long-term goal of Project 2 is to elucidate the role of ribosomal protein L13a in post-transcriptional regulation of inflammatory gene expression in monocyte/macrophages. Interferon (IFN)-gamma is the classic activator of monocyte/macrophages;it induces rapid transcription of inflammatory growth factors, proteases, chemokines, and generators of radical species. If unregulated, this process becomes chronic and monocyte/macrophage products accumulate, damage host tissue, and contribute to chronic disorders of blood vessels, e.g., atherosclerosis. We have discovered a novel translational control pathway that acts as an endogenous regulator of the inflammatory response. In myeloid cells, IFN-gamma induces assembly of the IFN-Gamma-Activated Inhibitor of Translation (GAIT) complex, which binds an RNA element in the 3?untranslated region of pro-inflammatory target mRNAs, and inhibits their translation. In Preliminary Studies we show that one GAIT protein, L13a, has a critical role in the GAIT system: its function is regulated by phosphorylation, it induces conformational changes in other GAIT proteins to regulate target mRNA recognition, and by interaction with eIF4G it is responsible for the observed translational silencing. Recently, we have shown that stress can alter GAIT system activity and influence inflammatory gene expression. Based on these results, we propose the following hypothesis: IFN-gamma-dependent phosphorylation of L13a induces a conformational change that facilitates its release from the 60S ribosomal subunit, formation of the GAIT complex, and binding to eIF4G to cause translational silencing of inflammatory transcripts;moreover, physiological stress can alter GAIT system function and inflammatory gene expression. We will test this hypothesis by pursuit of three Specific Aims.
In Aim 1 we will determine the mechanism of inducible release of L13a from ribosome in the response to inflammatory stimulus.
In Aim 2 we will determine L13a interactions required for GAIT complex assembly and silencing of inflammatory gene expression.
In Aim 3 we will determine the mechanisms by which stress alters GAIT complex function and inflammatory gene expression.
Our studies will elucidate a new pathway that regulates the synthesis of inflammatory proteins by macrophages, an important process in the development of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis. The pathway under investigation contributes to the limitation and resolution of chronic inflammation, an important causative factor in disease progression. A deeper understanding of inflammatory stop pathways is important because defects in these pathways can contribute to vascular disorders, and because the pathway itself may present alternative targets for development of novel anti-inflammatory therapeutics.

Public awareness of the new vision of space
Larry Fast
December 10, 2013
As an engineer I live at the intersection of vision and implementation. What do we want to achieve VS what can we do today. In the public perception of our space programs there is a very large gap between our vision of tomorrow and what we can do today. We talk about setting up colonies on Mars and the Moon but in the last 40 years only our robots have gone beyond low earth orbit. My vision for the planetary society is to bridge that gap. Find ways to educate the public on space goals that are a bit more grounded (OK, bad joke). IMO the comming generation of near earth asteroid missions truly fit that vision. Real engineering is happening today for missions that will make a tectonic shift in both our perception of space and our capabilities in space. Today our space missions are like Columbus and Magellan. We are expanding our view of the solar system. Tomorrow our missions will be more like the Hudsons Bay Company. Setting up a remote trading post. What awaits us is an in-space resource industry. The Planetary Society can play a major role in helping people understand this new vision of space.

NARAL Pro-Choice America Applauds Jon Tester on His Hard-Fought Re-Election to the U.S. Senate
Washington, D.C. – Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, congratulated Sen. Jon Tester on his re-election to represent the state of Montana.
"I send my heartfelt congratulations to Sen. Jon Tester and his campaign staff," said Keenan. "Montana women need a leader who will fervently advocate for their right to choose, and Jon Tester is just that person. Tester's opponent, Rep. Denny Rehberg, is an uncompromising foe of reproductive freedom, and Tester's win proves clearly that Montanans take their constitutional rights seriously. We, along with our affiliate NARAL Pro-Choice Montana, look forward to working once again with Sen. Tester in the 113rd Congress."
NARAL Pro-Choice America's PAC endorsed and contributed $10,000 to Sen. Jon Tester's campaign for U.S. Senate.
During the 2012 election cycle, NARAL Pro-Choice America and NARAL Pro-Choice America PAC spent more than $3.3 million to support President Obama, incumbent pro-choice senators and congressional representatives and challengers running in states and districts throughout the country. This amount includes more than $700,000 in direct contributions to federal candidates and committees; nearly $200,000 on member communications; and more than $1.3 million on independent-expenditure activity.
NARAL Pro-Choice America's independent expenditure program included mail, phones, television, and Internet advertising to reach 338,020 targeted pro-choice Obama defector voters in 25 counties within nine battleground states: CO, FL, IA, NC, NH, NV, OH, VA, WI. These "defectors" are women voters who supported President Obama in 2008, but were unsure or not planning to support his re-election.
Get more information about NARAL Pro-Choice America's electoral activities and other NARAL-endorsed candidates who also won their races.
